   If you're really interested in excellent Japanese animation try watching
*Mighty Orbots* on ABC Saturday mornings at 8:00am.  Although distributed by
MGM and appearing to have been animated for America (the lipsync definitely 
seems to be for english words) it was animated by Japanese artists.  It beats
*Star Blazers* and *Galaxy 999* hollow.  The stories themselves are better 
than your usual saturday morning stuff.  One word of caution, the episodes
at the beginning of the season are of slightly higher quality than those
towards the end.
