Japanorama BBC Rejection
Sapphi:
I'm not quite sure this is the right forum, but I'd like to make an appeal to the rejection of the BBC Japanorama Series.
Though it is not an original anime per se, it does feature quite of bit of anime and live action-media content as well as interviews with the creators such as Hayao Miyazaki. Some clips have been used in other torrents but this is the complete series. There aren't many anime/japanese media documentaries out there (this is the only that I know of); all of the commenters seem to agree that it would be a very good addition to the site (don't let the episode titles fool you; the episodes are jam packed with anime). If anything I would say this counts as "official" fan made material.

Scudworth:
just curious but was this made back when westerners used to call anime Japanimation?
neo1024:
I'd vote for it to get accepted! To understand the anime as a genre, one must first understand the culture that produces it. And these series is an excellent guide to the modern Japanese culture.
This should actually be somewhere on the front page of BBT as "Watch this first before you get anything else" introductory torrent.
PS.: It's from 2002.
PSS.: The thread should probably have been started in the "Uploader's Forum"
Xtras:
I agree it might be an asset for the site, but I don't think it should be added as just another offer. I agree with the previous post saying it should be on a separate page. But it doesn't feel right adding something like this into the list of all of the other anime. I mean would anybody actually search for something like that , probably not unless they know stuff like that was uploaded. Get what I mean. Ordinarily people would search for anime series, knowing that that is what is on the list. If this was added to just the list, it would be out of place. Nobody would look for groceries in a library so to speak. I think that is why it was rejected, and that is why BakaBt has the rule of, uploads must be strictly anime.
kurandoinu:
Shame. I'd love to see it. Only caught bits when it aired :(
