The television series is not titled "Read or Dream", but just "ROD the TV".

Um...great and all. ROD however does stand for Read or Dream, which is the title of the manga the tv series is based on. I'm not really sure what your point is, just nitpicking, or what. *shrugs*

Did you like the clip? Does it make you wanna rush out and buy the series? Is anybody getting exciting thoughts about makin AMVs with the source footage? o_O

Um

Actually

It's still "Read or Die"

The whole "Read or Dream" thing is a rumor that got started because people knew the manga was called that.

The TV series is still "Read or Die"

Oh good lord. Does it matter, honestly? I mean if you REALLY wanna know I suppose you could go and learn Japanese and then check out the official site (which btw has references to "Read or Dream" all over it, and not just in reference to the manga). Call it whatever you like though, I don't much care.

Am I the only one who gets some huge error in the video headers that keeps it from playing?

I dunno, it plays on all three of my systems. I encoded it in MPEG-1, 2 pass VBR, average bit rate of 1,150. Not sure why it's not workin for ya. You might try downloading and installing the KaZaA Lite codec pack, see if that does anything.

This is the TV series, not the OVA- it's not that old for you to have seen it then.

Ohhh, I guess it was the OVA. I have no idea how they could stretch out more storyline from that though. Unless its totally different.
