If you are speaking about Conan-Sama [Shinishi Kudo] It's Detective Conan
Of course, interesting news.

This ranking shouldn't be taken too seriously...The number of votes are most of the time ridiculous, and the bottom of the ranking is most of the time separated by less than 5 votes.

Yep. I think that Please! is the name of the project, but I'm not sure. Good to see Bebop up there

It's got a growing following in the Digisub scene, as a lot of people like it and the music. I'm into it right now, though I'll mkae the final call when I see the whole thing.
Nice to see Rahxephon up there, and FMP too. But Azumanga is too low, as it is my favorite series of the new season...-.-

Boy, I hardly like any of those animes at all. At least Rave wasn't on there. I wanted to puke after watching the first episode, it was the most moronic thing I had ever seen.
