I've never become a fan of Japanese anime, but that's not bad. A sorceress, eh? They do seem capable of casting spells.

I totally forgot about that. Being an avid fan of anime, that same show has a fire guardian called Lexus. Many other characters are named after cars too I beleive.

EIther that or, they are named after stars and constellations,... and the japanese car makers took those names as well

Anyone know of a star or constellation called Lexus?

Translated!

My French (language, not the other thing!) isn't so good, so I ran that page through one of those sites that translates it into a mixture of English and Nonsense. Here's what came out, I like the last bit the best:

Alcyone
Yil/Madoushi Alcyone (Alcyone Witch)
What she likes more: Zagato
What she likes less: the Princess Emerald
Specialities: magic of ice

One of the pupils of Key. It is the first enemy whom we find Hikaru-san, Umi-san and me. During the first part we clashed many times, and each time it lost, almost always to have underestimated to us. It follows the commands of Zagato, because it likes it, but it is not a reciprocal love. It hates the Princess Emerald. When Alcyone realizes that Zagato liked Émeraude, it asks him then why it fought all this time, Zagato answers him that it fought only for itself and for nothing other. It remains with Zagato until this one dies, from there one saw it more.

Information on the first name
(First name of car) " Alcyone " is a half-compartment SVX from Subaru

This gets wierder and wierder.....

The Zagato......*reaches into distant memory*...ah yes, the Aston Martin Zagato...a favourite of Rowan Atkinson (before he found the McLaren F1...which he ran up the back of a Metro (small car)!!

http://www.astonmartins.org/v8/v8zag.htm

And would you believe that it has SVX-ish windows!!



Someone in anime land is having some fun!! Soon it will be the mighty power of Corolla, wielding the sword of Pulsar against the demonic powers of Micra and the cohorts of Cedric and Gloria....the deity LS400 watching from above!

Whew! Haddago way back in the memory banks for that one. I remember the 60's car, but didn't know it had been revived.

Love the windows - but the rest of the car is less than impressive. And check out the Mustang hood scoop on the green racer. (Yeach!)
