We are so far from the bottom of the food chain of obsessive personalities it's not funny.

Oh, yeah, hit any science-fiction/fantasy convention, and you'll have new faith in your normalcy. A couple years ago I was at DragonCon in Atlanta, 22000 people, and it was AMAZING. I couldn't identify at least 3/4 of the costumes there, but being dressed as an Uruk-hai I actually felt kind of blase! The Japanese anime/video-game costumes were definitely among the most puzzling, in my ignorance, but they were certainly having fun! Lots of great talent and workmanship in all that, too.

Ok, when is the first Anime/Roman crossover event?
Sign me up!
On a more serious note, when I told my father I was getting into this he only had this to say.

LOL.
Definitely Auxilliaries.
Unfortunatlely my Anime experience ends with G-Force and Robo-tech from my childhood or I would propose something too.

There is a new Robotech series coming out. Though i don't think it involves the Romans, unfortunately.
