1) Talk to Danimal over on soc.men or soc.singles or whatever soc.group he infests. Maybe he could help with the lifesize anatomically correct robot option. 2) Virtual Reality. You may not be able to make a physical replica, but perhaps you could make a virtual one. 3) Learn lucid dreaming. Same principle as VR, but without the budgetary restrictions.

Response:

The anime version of "Metropolis" kicked ass especially. Quite a cute girl robot who was to be the Jiugulate (?sp obviously) in it. It was terribly sad at the end. Directed by the same bloke who did "Akira", innit? I’ve seen the original Fritz Lang version, and that ‘un, and I reckon the anime version is a much more poignant piece of cinema. BTW, there is to be a new Godzilla filum, and apparently he will co-star with 10 other monsters, which will kick ass. I’ve also ordered 2 Godzilla monsters from the Godzilla Shop, as our Japanese railway will not be complete without authentic Daikaiju.

He said in retrospect the ending was a bit saccharine or something. — "So what’s it like being Jewish?" "What’s it like being human?" "Well it’s no cake-walk." (Hill Street Blues)

I’m in love with a woman who I dreamed about – so I can’t even watch pictures of her on a screen, just remember her from my dream. I live in hope that one day she’ll turn out to be a real person I meet. I’ve fancied a few cartoon characters though! Funny how you can do that, after all, how on earth can you desire a /drawing/ in that way???? Funny beings, we are… Monster — I am the sexiest man in the UuuuKaaaayy All the girls love me And I will never grow Ooollldd I am the sexiest man in the UuuKaaaay! http://www.the-monstruum.co.uk

I was thinking your crazy (no offence!) but then I thought oh yeah I guess I could say I’m in love with some TV charcters. Since I don’t have really anyone close to me I don’t get to experience the day to day things that people go thru so TV is a replacement. So when a female TV character goes thru things I feel for her, I want to make it better and I guess I could say I had a crush on Buffy. It’s not just her looks it’s just she’s so cute, strong and has a sad side which I wanna make better. Obviously lots of people get crushes on the acctress but I got a crush (and have a crush?) on the character for what she is. My my, there I was thinking your crazy when I’m exactly the same way. I don’t get depressed about it though, I get depressed over ‘real’ girls *sigh*. "Ai" <a…@wufeichang.com> wrote in message

Response:

Ahyes, and my Japanese name might make you think it has been taken from an anime – which is not true

Response:

Wow I thought I was in love with someone I could never be with, actually twice now. But at least they were human! "Ai" <a…@wufeichang.com> wrote in message

Hm, OB, animes are the (mostly) Japanese animated cartoons my children love watching and so I also partly enjoy them. They are a genre by itself and some animes and manga are really special, even artful. Can’t be compared with Popeye, etc. Hmmm, the resemblance with Batman comes a bit closer as mostly supernatural powers are envolved Not everybody’s thing though but some anime do have something. I’ve just been recommended "Spirited Away". Hmmm, should be worth watching. Ahyes and a sadder one: "Grave of the Fireflies" which I have never heard of before. Have just been promised to get copies Cya, Sumi

Response:

Hmmm, I think i did not express that I know how addictive those anime characters can be. Some are really wonderful. The word *wufeichang* in your address – tell us more about it if you dont mind. Sumi

The best way to get overt it IS when the cartoon characters have kids. I mean, when popeye had them triplets with Olive, I no longer cared one bit for him. Here I was, the real, true to life Olive, and he chose a cartoon character to have three lil ugly thnags with? HAH! Only got this to say to you, Popeye: Toooooooooot, toooooooooooooot! and again: HAH!

Response:

Well, we have all been there. A few have been so frustrated about it, that they decided to turn themselves into anime characters. That’s were the characters come from in the first place you know. But before you follow their example, you should consider if it is really worth it to give up three dimensions, for the more meagre two dimensions, ’cause there’s no turning back. zorn "Ai" <a…@wufeichang.com> wrote in message

Response:

Dear Ai, I am hampered here by not knowing what an "anime character" is. Is it some sort of cartoon? Like being in love with Spiderman or something? If so, then I think you need some quite advanced technology to be able to be "with" this person, and even then only in a virtual sense, as e.g. the protagonists of the Roger Rabbit movie are able to be "with" that charming female cartoon lead they had, whatever her name was. The effect may be made to look quite realistic on a screen, but will probably be far from satisfactory in other ways, e.g. in a tactile sense, which some of us may consider quite important. It is also unlikely that, no matter how far technology progresses, you would ever be able to have a child with such a partner. Very few cartoon characters have so far demonstrated the ability to reproduce by normal means, even among their own kind, let alone crossbred with humans. You say "I try to go out with guys that are like him, but they never like me." I think your best bet is indeed to try and find a "guy" who possesses at least some of the qualities that endeared you to this anime character in the first place. You might try asking yourself why these guys never liked you. Is there something you could do to make them like you more? Perhaps treat yourself to a makeover, new hair colour, nice new pair of shoes? You never know what little thing it might be that will tickle some nice young man’s fancy! (Oh – and make sure you don’t have spinach on your teeth!) Anyway, love, you’re young and I’m sure that in time you’ll find a real "guy" who will take you to the moon and back! Glad to hear the bussiness is doing so well! Do come back and let us know how things turn out!

Response:

Hey you, didn’t you know that the greatest love is always targeted at the Unreachable? So cultivate the little love and see what comes out of it. And if you can’t like the guys who like you, well then, forget even about the little love and try to simply take a life. Don’t hang on to a phantom, girl(or are you male? One never knows or can it be that you need that to cultivate your loneliness? Can it be that you fear life? Whatever sex you are, whatever age, wherever place you live……. log out and switch off and get out of your four walls equipped with the will to simply look out for a change, huh? You might even feel more alone in the beginning, well, but this can change and be changed. So take a life then, good luck! Sumi ps. Whoever waits for their fairy tale prince or princess to turn up one day, arms wide open, will rot without having noticed their real chances.

Response:

I am in love with an anime character. I have been in love with him for about 9.5 years. Every day seems pointless because I know that no matter how many days I go through I will never be with him. I dream about him nearly every night. I daydream about him every day. The more I think about him the more I think about the fact that we will never be together and the sadder I get. I try to go out with guys that are like him, but they never like me. I try to go out with guys that aren’t like him, but I never like them. So I will always be alone. But I hate being alone. So what can I do? I thought maybe I could build a robot of him, so I tried learning to make robots, but all I could build were little robots. The closest I can get to being with him is my dreams when I’m asleep. So on one hand I want to sleep all the time. But on the other hand I hate to sleep because when I’m sleeping I can’t get anything done, and I have to work, feed & walk my dogs, watch anime and play games. Other than the being alone, my life is great. I run my own bussiness from home and I make enough to live pretty comfortably. I have the time and money to do almost everything I want, I get all the games & anime I want and have the time to play and watch them. But the one thing I realy want is to not be alone. So what can I do?
