Re: Anime discussion
Niall, depends on how much vision you have... assuming you have none, the best advice I can give is to download a program called the KM player and use its feature that allows the reading of any external subtitles you might have. Can't write too long of an explanation, but that should be a good starting point. And what you'll come to realize is that many terms in anime, especially science fiction anime... are actually borrowed from English. Some anime that I recommend are:
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure
Rurouni Kenshin
Claymore
Bamboo Blade
Yu-gi-o (Japanese version)
Those are all good starts, imo, since most of them are fairly short... and it's also a good idea to try out some of the really well known ones EG Naruto, Bleech, etc.
Daigonite, if you're sighted... then why don't you simply watch the Japanese versions of anime with subtitles? That'd be the best way to appreciate it in its original context... or at least the original imagining of the character voices if not the cultural aspect Many of my friends simply don't watch dubs... because if the Japanese option is there, might as well take it. and Yu-gi-o is actually only darker and serious in the American rendition. the Japanese version has brighter and more cheery music, not to mention differently designed cards and completely different character names than the later American localizations, as well as different lines and even some event changes. As to Joey / Jonouchi's sister, I don't think the anime actually states that she's blind... just that she had sergery for her eyes. Though since she does seem to marvel at the fact of being able to see after taking off the bandages, it might be just cataracts as you suggested... since I can't find any other explanation for her quick healing and like you said, her lack of visual issues in flashbacks. lol
