Expertise
I can answer most general questions about most series. Recently, I have been watching Bleach, Tenjho Tenge, Rozen Maiden, DearS, Kaliedo Star, xxxHolic, Sorcerer Hunters, Noir, Chobits, Ojamajo Doremi, Naruto, and Digimon, so I am more immediately familiar with these series. I am knowledgable in manga as well, some Japanese/American cultural differences, and 'ecchi/hentai' as well. Also, I have some knowledge in anime related live action TV shows, radio broadcasts, and musicals I try to avoid Americanizations of anim
Experience in the area
I have watched anime since the mid 90's and collected manga for just as long. Also, I was a regular customer promoted to employee at my local anime/manga shoppe for about a year before I couldn't afford it anymore. Also, have done some dabbling in drawing fanart and manga.
What do you like about this subject?
The fact that in anime... anything goes!
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?
I hope to watch anime/read manga till the day I die. I would particularly like to learn Japanese one day so I don't have to wait for translations

Hey there, I want to say that you are thinking of Yamato Takeru. It seems to be the only anime that fits your description, but it's original run wasn't until 2004 There is also an anime called Kishin

It is against copyright law to download anime via a torrenting site. For the first season of Fullmetal, you have the option of paying for it or watching it on TV. Alas, there are no other legal options
2009-03-20 Naruto-Transformation Jutsu:
The transformation jutsu seems to be purely an illusion ability. Not really useful for combat (which is most of what Naruto is) and is more suited for spying and infiltration. There are probably many
