   Baerana to All   
   Total noobe looking for advice

   Hi.  I'm very new to the world of anime.  My exposure so far has been   
   Tenchi and a few Cowboy Bebops.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE Tenchi and now am the   
   proud owner of the first two OVAs and the two TV series on DVD, as well   
   as the 3 movies.  The Cowboy Bebops I've seen have been on the Cartoon   
   Network, but I enjoy them as well.   
      
   I'm looking for a good place to start exploring other anime.  I live in   
   Crapville USA so borrowing from friends isn't an option - nor do our   
   library or any local bookstores carry anime or manga.  I don't want to   
   spend a ton buying something I may not like so Ideally I would buy   
   something like a collection book with a variety of mangas in it, or   
   something like a sample DVD with an episode or two from a few series -   
   something to wet my feet and give me an idea what series I'm interested   
   in investing in.  Any ideas?   
      
   I'd also love ideas for web pages to read, or anything else that may be   
   helpful   
      
   Also, is there a FAQ for this group?  If so, please let me know where.   
   TIA!!!
