I have also noticed this in Finland. When I descripe LOGH to some=20
people (mostly women) they are like 'where are the mechas' or
something similiar and then they lose interest to it.
I think they want anime to be mindless action and or some shit
like FY (School girl goes somewhere and meets a boy, have we seen this?)
I quess they cannot believe that there can be an animated drama.
Fortunately, many people who have heard about LOGH from
me, have immeaditely interested about it. In fact I have copied
all 42 episodes which I own to about ten people, and everyone
was immediately hooked for it and demanding more episodes.
I also agree to the opinion that LOGH probably won't be released
commercially, since it is not for mass audience. This is very sad
since LOGH is the best anime series ever. But of course we can
always hope. Heck, I even sended a tape filled with LOGH to our
national television.
As for fan service, I am glad that there is none and I hope there
will never be. Who would like to see porno statues (as I call them)
made out of LOGH characters (They made these from EVA charas already!)
=20
My opinions for this.
Sampo.
