Special Note: I was actually wondering while watching a Lupin the Third episode 'What would happen if Lupin found his way into Paradigm City…I wonder how Roger would react to that…' I didn't really consider it a thought for a fa
Poem of a Madman
"I'm an inspector, a plant,
a truth seeker and a thief.
I've built eight war machines,
and I've played great music."
A madman speaks softly in the dark
perhaps to himself, perhaps to his shadow.
"You are not me, and I am not you,"
says the lunatic to a stranger.
"I know not who or what you are,"
the stranger replies, "so leave me be."
Silence falls over the pair
like the curtain on an endless stage.
At this, the eccentric laughs.
Many scenes ago that humble man walked onto the stage,
and in a corner was a girl, distraught and forlorn.
Such anguish, such emotion,
and with no way to escape.

MFL: Big Duo vs Big Zenigata
The fog swirls around outside the domes as the sun comes up...the Military Police wait at the fencing looking out across JFK Mark. Two shapes can be made out through the mist and fog both of them are huge however one is large than the other.
Dastun: *to a private* Have they moved yet?
Private: No sir...
Out in the middle of JFK Mark the fog and mist slowly become lighter...suddenly a maniacal laugh is heard, and then the sunlight beems through the fog blinding the poor Military Police.
Schwarzwald: I'm glad you could make it....PARADIGM DOG!!
Zenigata: That's INTERPOL to you, bub. Now then what is it that you want here.
Schwarzwald: M

[Insert Spirit]
An artificial sun shines over the skyscrapers of the central Paradigm dome. Its inhabitants continue through with their daily lives, innocent and unaware. Rarely there is a disturbance; a giant destructive robot, robbery, murder; all are uncommon inside the domes, but... They also fear the memories that fuel these incidents... the foolish Paradigm dogs that will never know the truth of their lost memories... The truth behind these false skies called domes! It can't continue... Everyone must know the truth! And I will MAKE them aware of it... with Big FAU!!

For 11 years Toonami was the defining block of television for a generation. It almost single-handedly brought Anime into the mainstream, and gave millions of viewers a higher sense of philosophy and purpose with shows that had more depth than other contemporary animation had to offer (DCAU, Samurai Jack, and other outliers aside).
I witnessed first hand Toonami's final broadcast in 2008 from my apartment. I grieved with the rest of my generation that grew up with it and saw it in its better days... the days before Cartoon Network's decline.
Do not expect this to be a
Well, everything bad from the past year and a half doesn't matter any more in approximately 20 minutes (Wed/Thurs July 25/26 @ 12 midnight, Central).
It is with a heavy heart that I announce to those reading this that Paradigm-City.com has officially shut down its forums after 4 1/2 years of service to the "Big O" community and anime fans across the internet.
This was a place of eager anticipation, a place of people young and old marveling and drooling over a series that is so very underappreciated.... THE BIG O :)

Long time no type folks. But I dare say this is the most astonishing thing I've heard in a LONG time. We just got our class rankings for our grade...I'm #15 O_O Which means (in a very sloppy analysis) only 14 people are doing better academically than me!! I was suprised the rankings some of my friends got...but still those numbers are a helluva lot better than MANY other people in our class, so I give you worthless bums a pat on the back for doing better than 80% of our grade :w00t:
I have nothing better to say in journals. So tough! =P
