I picked "Other", because I think Tak is super awesome! But all the characters rule because Invader Zim is, in my opinion, the greatest animated show (or show period) EVER! Jhonen Vasquez is a genius! I mean, he wrote Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, I Feel Sick, and Squee, and invented, animated, and wrote for Invader Zim. Jhonen is so awesome. But anyway, Tak is my favorite character.

[COLOR=DarkRed]I love Invader Zim, it's a great show! Gir is by far my favorite character. I love the randomness of it all, something Gir greatly contributes to the show. "I was the turkey all along!," it's just too good. I could go on for hours of all the greatness and great parts of it, but whatever.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue][FONT=Comic Sans MS]I think Invader Zim is not technically an "anime". :glasses: It's just an American animated show. But yeah, I still love it!! :rotflmao: I keep wating for the next DVD to come out, but until then I watch them over and over again. LOL! My favorite episode has to be the bee and the other one with "The Moose" LOL :rotflmao:

Has anyone seen the DVD extras? They're hilarious!! Oh, I think they were talking about bringing Invader Zim back on television soon. COOL!!!! :luv: [/FONT] [/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkRed]Well, by definition it is anime, because anime is a Japanese word reffering to anything that is animated. How Americans reffer to it is what most people think of with anime. I think of anime as what most do from Japan, but i didn't question this, because technically it is.[/COLOR]

~_~ the term anime is used in the US for the sake of referring to JAPANESE animation. Zim is an American cartoon, not "anime". It is, however, being put on DVD by Anime Works and is filed under anime at Target...not sure about other places. It's not Japanese (though if you wanna get technical, I believe some Korean people worked on it. Is there a Korean term for animation?)

Seriously though,who cares. It's still an American show. Calling it anime seems weird.




Anyway~


I totally heart Zim. I got to meet the guy who does the voice of Gir and he's super nice. I like Gir a lot, just like most people XD; Though all the characters are really great. Gaz is prolly my second fave character (squee for the game slave 2 episode~)

The show probably got canned because it really wasn't Nickelodeon (sp? ) material... it's insanely different from everything else they show. I never bothered watching the extras though, so I don't know anything about them talking about bringing the show back. It would be nice to see more episodes, but I doubt Nick would bring it back (though could prolly get someone else to fund it though).

Invader Zim is such a fun, random show to quote XD "Why is his head so big?"

[SIZE=1]I love Gir! He is just like me,only the male,dog/alien and cuter version!
And I lubb cupcakes too...so yeah.

My mom thought Invader Zim was to "violent" when it was on Nickelodeon,so she didn't let me watch it.But I borrowed the DVD from Blockbuster.So I have seen it.

But my friend Michael likes it more.He has all kinds of Invader Zim stuff.He even carries around a Gir and Pig purse (a.k.a. messenger bag).He is more obsessed than me.[/SIZE]

[COLOR=DeepSkyBlue][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Wow! That's so cool!! :animesmil I'm kinda jealous. :p lol :animesmil so how'd you meet him? I met the black power ranger once on an online chat room for anime discussion. I think he was the one from when they were beastie rangers...I don't know. His name was Jack Guzman or something. He was nice too.[/FONT][/COLOR]

He goes to a lot of cons ^_^ I've seen him a few times, actually. The first one was CKon (in Indiana)...and he was totally cool XD I got to hug him and everything (and I bought art prints from his wife...who is an amazing artist!). He was also at Anime Central (in Arlington, Il) this year....
He seems to go to a few cons ^_^ So maybe if there's one near you, you can check the guest list and see if he's gonna be there? His name is Rikki Simons. I believe his wife is Tavi (or Tavisha)? They are both super nice ^_^

Here's his journal, if that helps any XD;;

Gir is the coolest. Nothing can top him. Not even pokemon during it's great uprising. I think the reason why everyone's voting for him, is because he's the easiest to remember cause you loved him so much.

I mean, Zim is an idoit; Dib's a stupid genious; Gaz is the scary goth chick that probably gave you nightmares; And pig... ... ... excatly. So... does that explain it?

Every year there are two big Anime Conventions that my friends and I talk about. Anime North just finished, and CN Anime is coming this August.

The reason I post this in the Zim thread is because CN Anime is merged with the Comic Book, Sci Fi, Horror, and Gaming conventions. And for this year's Comic Book convention JHONEN VASQUEZ, creator of Zim, JtHM, and Squee, will be a guest of honour. ^^

BWAHAHAHA. I can't wait to meet him.
Him and Linda Park... OOh and Tuvok... and Elijah Wood but he's meh...

anyway. Anyone have any questions that they would want me to ask him if I have the chance? I wonder if I will though... Sometimes you have to pay extra for the special guests. >.<

[SIZE=1]Personally, I like Zim. Gir is alright, thats right I said it, just alright. He is random, and pretty funny, but Zim is funnier I believe. His "take over the world" antics are hilarious. He seems so determined yet the most futile things always seem to thwart his plans. His interaction with Gir is really funny as well.

Dib is my second favorite. I'd be incredibly frustrated if I were him :animesigh [/SIZE]

[SIZE=1]*wipes tears* N-No I'm fine...just kidding lol

I just think Gir is the simple kind of funny, while Zim offers a little more comedy you actually have to think about. I think he has the best interaction with other characters as well. Zim and Dib arguments and conversations are hilarious, and Gir usually only interacts with Zim, rather then everyone else.

On another topic, you shouldn't double post. The admins will hunt you down and kill you! lol, not really, but it is a rule, so next time just wait till a few more people post, or edit the previous post, thanks[/SIZE]
