I'm gonna have to ask why you spell it Meka instead of Mecha.

Uh let see. My foggiest memories tell me I started to adopt this spelling because the k was closer translation then the ch, as I recall japanses doesn't have a ch use, but has a k.

The ch spelling was popularized and accepted as the defacto spelling. I contend that neither is wrong. I do know that I am in a wii minority.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

Well, meka would be closer to the Japanese, but it's based on the English word "mechanical" anyway, so...

You mean 'ever' at the end, but who cares?

Anyway, I R NEED ANIME. I've finished Code Geass now, and I'm not going on to the second season yet. I need to see some sensible leg/body proportions. Any recommendations?

Well, you could try looking at real human beings for a while.

Looking at your profile on that website, I find it hard to believe you actually watched most of the things in that list.

Sensible? There is no such thing. It's just a sliding scale between ridiculously disproportionate to unhumanly freakishly disproportionate.

My list is kinda of small compared to some of my friends. Are you referring to the number of listed of watch the some of the series that been watched?

Well, I've been watching Anime for about 18 years. Right now I see two or three movies a year, and one or two series a year. Its really waned in recent years. I enjoy cartoons.

Edit: Correct number of years.

Baccano! Prohibition Era Anime set in America following several groups of people and a train going to New York. It's really amazing.

I won't spoil it too much, but the writing is pretty clever, and there are some great twists. Also it doesn't shy away from some violence.

Lots of mangling.
Hands being grinded and crushed.
Blood blood and more blood.

It's the only Anime I've watched fully through.
