i've noticed the same thing.
the main caracter always comes back alive or dies during one of the last episodes.
well, i guess you can't make a show without a main caracter.

and sailor moon's cute. but it's a really old show.
i remember watching it when i was 10... jeez, that's 6 year ago. time flies.

and i love studio ghibli. or how do you write it?
they make awsome movies. spirited away, howl's moving castle, the cat returns. i <3 you.

and how come i see "final fantasy" often under the category "anime"? well, not the games, but the movies. and the pictures.
does it make advent children or the spirits within (cgi movies) anime?
