"Also, the first episode of FMA's dub was shown at Otakon, both right before the L'Arc~en~Ciel concert in the arena AND during the concert itself in a video room in the BCC. Anyone at Otakon could've watched it."

FMA episode 1 dubbed was aired at Otakon?

This wonderful post by arivelz on fm_alchemist has all the Full Metal Alchemist theme songs in complete length for downloading.

I already had them, but I thought a few flist folks might be interested. I especially recommend "Rewrite" by Asian Kung Fu Generation, the 4th opening theme.

Samurai Champloo # 1

Well, it is very stylish, which I like.

It is also very darkly animated and colored, which I don't like.

It has well done animation-- always a good sign. But I don't like the character designs-- a bad sign.

I am willing to watch the next episode, though. Definitely better at the moment than Saiyuki or Tenjou Tenge was when I tried to watch them.

P.S. Why is it in widescreen?

Word of the day:

STRATOCRACY

meaning: government by the military.

example: Edward and Alphonse Elric live in a stratocracy, where the military is the ruling body and the supreme ruler became such by rising through military ranks, as Roy Mustang is attempting to do.
