D-Addicts has torrents for TRICK - a funny Japanese X-Files-like series [related]

Downloading episode 1...

Cool. I myself have skipped ahead to the first ep of Trick 2, which has a lot better picture quality than the first season VHS rips.

It's nice to see posts like these. I'm really into anime & Japan the last couple of months and I won't mind if you post a lot more japanese-tagged items.

Just to "prove" my Japan-o-philia (as if that's necessary...), my watched-anime-list: http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=myvotes&uid=91915&orderby=vote&orderdir=1

For my Nihongo skills I use this site: http://www.nihongoresources.com/
Currently I have mastered the hiragana, so the katakana are next, I guess!

If you have any tips or suggestions, please don't hesitate. :)

Heheh, I happen to be compiling a list of watched-animes myself, will post it soon. But lately I've been watching even more Japanese movies than anime series... thanks to sites like http://www.midnighteye.com/ and http://www.twitchfilm.net/ .

One handy site I use occasionally is http://www.jchar.com/ - converts Roman alphabets to Japanese Hiragana/Katakana characters.

And here's something I've been working on, a Javascript-based hiragana/katakana trainer:
