OK, I'd be glad if you posted me some rough idea privately since I don't
know when I'll see more of it (officially, only one movie was released
here, I think the title is "prelude to a new battle" or something like
that), and the LDs are really expensive (but the last episodes of the
first
season really deserved it, didn't they ^_^). Plus, LoGH is so addictive
but
so unknown around here. 
The series in itself is so teasing (I don't know if I'm having a
peresonnal, 
very free view of the second season, but [SPOILER???] isn't it srongly
hinted 
that: 
      *the Alliance might turn into what they've fought for years
      *Yang might go over the edge and become a dictator ( despite the
inquiry, 
it's hard to picture: "After you've executed those oponents to the
regime, could 
you give me some tea Julian?" o_0)

I wasn't too sure if it was bootleg, but if it is I'd prefer avoiding it
and concentrate
on getting LDs (ouch!!, I'll have to stop buying those Gundam OVAs ).
Anyway, thanks for the 
advice.
