The previous list could go on some more, but I can't think anymore...  As I said, the only problem is that it contains the one unnecessary scene stated above for H-otaku, thus limiting who can watch it, but if anyting, that's a plus.</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I><B>That's my story and I'm sticking to it.</B></I></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
