Hi Melanie,=20

I'm glad you managed to make something useful from the quizzes.

There are some noticeable differences in Get Backers (cert 12), a good exam=
ple being towards the end of the first episode/volume. Too complicated to g=
o into here but the manga ending has a much darker and adult edge to it.

I couldn't hand on heart say how different things like Naruto and Bleach ar=
e in their different forms. They have different names in Naruto though I th=
ink. Anyone else know if this would be suitable?

If you wanted a silly quiz you could always do an observation round (a la K=
rypton Factor) where you show them an excerpt and ask questions afterwards,=
 "who was the first to speak?", "what was on the picture behind the main ch=
aracter" that kind of thing. We've also had some fun with a "Name that Tune=
" type thing using Youtube.

I wonder why all my ideas for things are cribbed from old game shows?

How about transcribing a short section into separate scripts for each chara=
cter, turning the sound down and getting a them to "dub" a short section of=
 it? You could even record it and vote on who was the best/most hilarious. =
Might be fun and I might use that for my manga group myself.

Good luck with your event and we'll be waiting for the blow by blow report =
afterwards.

Carl.

Whatever you do... under NO CIRCUMSTANCES... show them Urutsukudoji:
Legend of the Overfiend. Don't even be tempted to look at that
yourself. You'll have to scrub your brain clean afterwards.
