Hello and welcome to the board!

Wow! That was quick, you guys really are on top of things.
So hi all! Complete noob here. Not just for the forums, but Gatchaman in general.
What?
Yeah a little upcoming game called Tatsunoko vs Capcom piqued my interest in Tatsunoko properties, having not really heard of them before. I've always known Gatchaman by appearance mostly as "That old Anime" that Amano (huge fan here) got his start in. I decided to brush up on my knowledge and well, I've gotten hooked and delighted by the series. Found this place and decided to stop by.
So see you guys around and I hope to learn a lot here.

Ha ha... Just happened to log in at the right time 
I've never seen the game personally. You'll definitely learn a lot here, as you may have seen, we've had several threads on specific characters lately.

Ah...you came to the right place! I highly recomend watching the ADV DVDs ...or at least watching some of the episodes on You Tube. I noticed that many of the episodes have been posted there.

Oh welcome welcome welcome!
I see that you're an Eagle ... FANTASTIC! We need more Eagles here to tame the Condors and ward off the doe-eyes swans ...
Do we Swannies still outnumber Eagles??
This is a fun board to play on. We talk about pretty much anything and have a wealth of information about Gatchaman.
Me, personally, Battle of the Planets girl. I've been in love with Mark since I was a little girl ... But these guys keep me in line with Gatchaman... LOL
Do stick around and enjoy!!

Welcome Cain
Glad to see you. Tell us a little more about yourself, if you dare, what part of this great world do you come to us from?
Sorry SJ, I believe the Eagles are beating the Swans now. Condor's are in the lead.
Greetings, Cain. It's great to have you here!

Nice to see you, Cain! I wish we could see Capcom vs. Tatsunoko here. I'd buy it for sure! But all we've seen are videos as I presume it's only being released in Asia. Shame, that. We do have some discussion of the game in the Video Games section of this board.
Great to see you here, and glad you're enjoying the show!
Welcome aboard, Cain! 
I suspect you'll find that Amano's contributions to the original Gatch series are well-appreciated: Katse certainly has a following, and so does Jun. The series was definitely improved by his input.
I haven't been here all that long myself, but I can confirm this is a fun place to hang out. It's great to be able to "talk shop" with other fans. Hope you enjoy!

Hello Cain and welcome to the boards! Please pull up a barstool and tell us about yourself! (are you an Eagle?? That'd be great if you are! We can never have too Eagles around here!! Those Swannies are tough to keep in-line...)
Welcome Cain, it's great to see you here. 
Hello Cain! By looking at your avatar, I think you're an Eagle! You just made the Swans happy!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys (ladies?).
Yeah I wasn't quite sure who to choose still being kinda new to the series and all, and because I don't have a definite favorite yet. Thought I'd wait a bit on that.
Ah so the gang will be trying to sway you one way or another to increase their clans size, a dangerous admission on these boards....you may end up a swan! 
Yess, that's a great idea! Become a Swan, Cain!

Ooooo, maybe I should put in a plug for the Owl here.
The smallest team member in clan numbers, but the biggest in size.
Actually I was just noticing: The Swallow has no clan. I guess no one wants to admit they have Swallow tendencies.

I'm sure as you watch the show you will decide which character you like the most. I'm looking forward to seeing your preferences emerge, Cain!
So many great characters and really a lot of reasons to like them all.

Whichever clan you pick will be wonderful, Cain. But know that us Eagles will be more than happy to have you in our ranks!

Wow I've started quite the debate.
BIRD CLANS ARE SERIOUS BUSINESS!
I wouldn't mind taking a Swallow spot if he's unpopular, since Jinpei's pretty cool. And I do fit that whole "Young one with a lot to learn" ideal.
But then I'm always a sucker for the main hero.
But then I always strong charismatic heroines.....
GAHHHH! XO
Originally posted by Cain Highwind I wouldn't mind taking a Swallow spot if he's unpopular, since Jinpei's pretty cool. And I do fit that whole "Young one with a lot to learn" ideal.It would be nice to see someone join the Swallow clan, as he currently has no one. Me, when I first realized there were clans to join here, I made my choice in about, oh, two seconds!
Originally posted by shamrokchickTruth be told, if you have not guessed by now, I am an Eagle girl at heart too, but with my soft heart I figured the big guy needed some support as well. Besides I figured with everyone going after either the Eagle or the Condor I would take a sure thing, the one guy still available.Originally posted by clouddancerI've thought about it... but I'm still an eagle girl at heartOriginally posted by shamrokchick You're right, we're lacking in Owl and Swallow numbers here.Care to join me down here?

Cain, you can always take the Swallow, and then change later on if you like. We had a week here a few months ago where we all changed clans, just for fun!

Oh, sosai x's funny pages. Those are grand!
Cain, will love to see which clan you later join. Heck switch it around some and really confuse people.

Wow I have been remiss in welcoming you, Cain! 
Whatever clan you choose you are certainly most welcome here. (Watch out for the smut!)

Ooo...watch out! We have a Swallow in our midst! I think Cain may very well be the most dangerous one of us all!

Congratulations Cain.
I think you made a great choice.
And for what it is worth, I think we are all in some ways Swallows since we are all children at heart loving this show we watched as children.
So true so true Springie, for the swallow often gets overlooked because he's so much smaller. Imagine the fun he could create!
Originally posted by lborgia88LB, I will agree. The story lines got more indepth too, the later that it gets in the series.Originally posted by Cain Highwind After seeing this (@7:20) I was really considering it ^.^I really enjoyed the ADV dub -especially in the later episodes when the actors were really hitting their stride- and Katse definitely got a lot of the best lines!
