Heh, tell her I've got up through 31 - is that all that are available? And thanks. Also are there other anime she'd recommend.

*Clare again!*

The truth is, shortly after episode 31 was released the series got licenced for American distrubution by Funimation (the people who licenced Fruits Basket, incidentally.) So, getting subtitled episodes from 32 up is pretty hard (I don't even try.) However, you can still find raw, or unsubbed, episodes up to the current Japanese one if you look hard. Or I could bake you some cookies ^_^

You could also wait until November when the series will premier on Adult Swim, either in the 11:00 or the 11:30 timeslot, I don't remember. And seeing as the Fruits Basket dub was quite nice, this one oughta be pretty good as well ^_^ The downside being that they probably won't be up to the current Japanese episodes until this time next year.

As for other anime? Hmm... Samurai 7 is pretty cool so far, kinda like Akira Kurosawa meets Samurai Jack. Other than that I can't really think of anything that isn't already licenced (I would have recomended Mermaid's Forest, but ADV picked it up just last weekend. Yikes.)

By the way, I hear the guy who did Rurouni Kenshin started another manga, which, oddly enough, features alchemy (it's not FMA.) I don't know much about it, but you might wanna look into it.

And with that, I'm off! *webslings away*
