I just want to point out, that Mr. Ikeda bears a striking resemblance to Rick Santorum. Or is it just me?

I guess watching the Republican debates tonight, followed by 01 was a bad idea lol. But I swear, I keep looking at Santorum like he was familiar somehow, and now I know who he reminded me of! lol

I do want to say, that my second run through of 01 has made me appreciate the show a lot more. 01 is not the series that Kikaider was, but it's its own thing and that's ok.

And since this is Mr. Ikeda's thread...I'd like to say he does a bang up job in the show, as well as in Return of Ultraman. A class act all the way. It's a shame he's gone.
