Jason, seriously, you sound like someone who has avoided M-a-n-g-a and Anime a lot, you may need to update your files a bit.
Check out "Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade", it's a relatively new motion picture, by one of the most successful and serious Anime directors/producers.
It should be in every large video rental store. It's ultra-realistic Anime, in a sci-fi story set in the 60's, where Japan and Germany had won the second world war. I hear a sequel has been made too, that I must check out.

Kazeite: Yeah, but that doesn't change the fact that it's four-year-old Janeway and Torres having some sort of slumber party.

Again, you're yalking about Anime and I'm talking about comics done in the "big eyes style" (for want of an exact term). MUCH more effort goes into even the worstanime cartoon than into those comics (that I've seen at least)and it's the comics we're talking about here.
I like anime: in some instances, I LOVE anime. Not for Trek.

And THAT is what the design of the Powerpuff Girls is based on. Not manga. Get it right, you lazy hack writers. Grr.
Christ, those pictures are scary, aren't they?

Well, can't 4 year olds have slumber parties? It's cute. Ish. Why is it seriously disturbing you? At least she hasn't got them having sex. At least she hasn't got two 5 year olds licking each other out.
I hate the person who showed me that site. Evil. Evil, I say!

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

that is quite possibly one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen, next to the hard backed marvel comic book of The Motion Picture......
Tell a lie I actually kinda liked the comic book of the Motion Picture..

funny, you mention that, the "what-if" depiction of the back story to Jin-Roh. Having scooped up the new volumes out for Gunnm: Last Order, i read a surprising line in the the later chapters of volume 3 that Japan and a apperently victorious Germany helped establish the first colonies in the solar system. Intially shocking but after some thought it makes sence why the future depicted in Gunnm is so fucking bleek. I mean, the people is power are truely cruel and remorseless... and i always thought Desty Nova was a sick fuck...

That is just... wrong.
