About 15 years ago on tv, I remember watching part of this animated movie. I don't remember much, I was around five when I saw it, but I'll try to list all that I can.
The scene takes place in a giant room, and in this room are giant pink flowers. I believe more are closed, there's at least one open. Standing in front of it is a girl in a flower themed outfit, I believe there's a skirt to it, and it's colored similar to the flowers. The girl's been brain-washed, or is under mind control, something that's taken her free will. There's a man in a chair behind her, and he motions her forward, and she walks to the flower, up an extended petal, and onto the inner circular part, turns around, and the petals start closing around her, trapping her inside.
After the flower has closed, these vines come out and grab her by the legs and the arms, raising her off the ground, and begin to slowly sap her energy, or it uses her as a power source. I vaugely believe it takes place on a space ship, and she, along with a bunch of other girls, are being used to power said ship, or something else, but it's still pretty big.
I've been looking for this for years, and this scene is really the only thing I remember about it. I never got a chance to find out what happened to the girl because I had to go to bed.

What episode of Naruto is this image of Orochimaru from? For reference, it's at 1:30 and it's the second scene after a cute clip of Takato and Guilmon.

Okay, so I saw an episode of an anime six years ago when visiting Portugal (and therefore had NO IDEA what was going on or what the title was). The bits I remember are a boy being turned into a vampire (I'm pretty sure that's what happened anyway...) and being restrained by another guy who had orange hair and a green tartan poncho (or coat. possibly.) who was using silver thread or string.
And then some guys in futuristic white lab-coat-radiation-suit-hybrid outfits appeared which completely clashed with the old-church location and feel of the anime. Closing credits were just focused on one girl, I think.
I'm pretty sure it was made early 2000's, possibly late nineties. This has been bugging me for years, literally, if anyone can help me find out what it is I'll be immensely grateful

Please can anyone tell me what's the name of the series : It's a series almost horror and thriller, i watched in French language. IT has a villain all dressed in black, a golden mask on his face. He has a ring that can control human minds. He also almost every episode at it's end, listens to a music box, a ballerina maybe or something like that. Plus there is somethings with his ring about green and red when he control minds. And a detective maybe always tries to catch him but fails.

(I really wish this place had a way to set the medium as "fanfiction".) (^_^)''
A fanfiction for The Slayers that involves Lina an co going on a vacation to the island where Lina and Naga went in one of the OAV's, and L/G, A/Z and F/X having to get married. Because L-Sama was bored. And said so.
Or the world would end. >I
What I remember most about the story was that:
- It was funny, and it didn't take itself seriously.
- There may have been a wine talk about red -vs- white wine between Filia and Xellos
- The old guy that Lina helped in the OAV shows up as a ghost at one point, and Gourry freaks out when he realizes that Lina basically saved his whole line, and if she hadn't, he wouldn't have even existed.
- I think there was a comment about L-Sama taking Lina's shape, and by extension acting more like her.
- The three couples are about to get married when they realize they have no rings. One of them (Zel?) starts to freak out, and the priest tells him not to worry- it's not the end of the world! (But it totally is).
I thought it was on ff.net, but the filters and searches I did didn't work, so now I'm wondering if it *was* on ff.net and got moved, if it was there and it was deleted, or if it is there, and I'm just stupidly not seeing it.
So yeah... Does anyone know what I'm' talking about. ^^;;

The "Freaky Friday" Flip page refers to one of the Haruhi Suzumiya games having a body swap of Yuki and Mikuru, but doesn't say which game it is. Can anyone tell me?

Can anyone tell me the original versions of certain scenes in this Axis Powers Hetalia video?: the France's kung-fu-esque pose, the Switzerland/Liechstenstein and Austria/Hungary dance, the China jump down and kung-fu-esque pose, and the America plate(?) scene. I swear I've seen them before in other anime.

Just a small question: Is the VN Jesus based on the manga of the same name? The Visual Novel index is directing us to the religious figure.

Sort of an inversion, I know the show I'm on about but it doesn't seem to exist!
It was called Cupido (at least the version I saw was. It was in that grey area between anime and western animation as I think it was a French show in the vein of Dogtanian or Willy Fog).
Anyway, the premise was there was a city, "Colourville" which had four districts. Everyone in a district was either White, Yellow, Red or Blue (skin, clothes, everything!) and the various districts hated each other. I mean really hated each other, like assaulting each other on sight.
Enter Cupido, a Cupid (obviously) who would shoot everyone with magical heart arrows and cause them to all become bestest friends. I remember at least one episode actually dealt with an "interracial" child as it were (a green child as the offspring of a yellow and blue couple). I can't remember if there was a Big Bad keeping tensions up between the districts or if it was just about racial prejudice, but that was the formula, two or more colours fight, Cupido saves the day.
Anyone else remember this or was I dreaming the whole thing?

I have vague memories of an anime that aired in Malaysia in the early half of the 90s. It involved a tank and at least an attack helicopter, and had two guys and a girl. I can't really remember whether the tank and another mecha and the attack chopper combined...
What I remember most is one ep with the chopper pilot gets shot down and is eventually captured by the big bad and crucified, and the dragon takes her time killing her by using a laser thimajig to slowly blast bits of her torn flightsuit off her, for great fanservice, which continued until the two guys showed up all Big Damn Heroes.
Last sequence of that ep had the chopper pilot being embarrased about her proposed new uniform, which was a sleek one-piece swimsuit.
so... yeah. anybody remember this?

Okay what I remember about it was it was about a group of people who when they were kids made some kind of symbol, and later on in their lives they find out some sort of world dominating organization is using the symbol they created. I can't remember if it was just a manga or if it was an anime either...
I think this one's more recent, and I watched it on some Anime on demand channel, but I don't remember the title. So basically, There's a young girl who is told she has special powers and is sent to some special school with her best friend, who is like, a genius. And There's a guy who controls fire. That's all I got for details other than I think the op featured the main characters like, cheerleading or something...o.o I feel like this one should be obvious, and it's been bugging me that I can't think of it.
