This is something I found out yesterday when I was searching Wikipedia and I felt didn't really belong anywhere else.
"Also of note is the fact that several of the animators from Japanese animation studio Sunrise worked on the series - their work on Batman would become a great influence on one of their later series, Big O and the Cowboy Bebop episode "Pierrot le Fou"."
So, incredibly awesome? I think so, it certainly helps explain why Big O resembles Batman: The Animated Series quite a bit.
Any other trivia people want to share?

I love trivia; many of my conversations are comprised of it. Usually it's film or TV related, for me. I can't think of anything specific right now, but I'll be sure to post something here, when I remember it.

Peanuts and loads of other things that are called somethingnut aren't actually nuts. For example, a peanut is a pea, not a nut. In fact, nuts are actually just seeds. So, I have no idea why the hell people call nuts ... nuts to be honest.
And I didn't make all that up, it was on QI. WHICH IS TRUE ALL THE TIME, K!

'nuts' must have some sort of component in them that other things with seeds don't, because I'm pretty sure Richard eats tomatoes and other fruits and stuff. It's probably that component that he is allergic to.

Hell, it's confusing. I think you're right Sophie. You summed that up much better than I could've ever dreamed in this state. ;

You must be very tired or something, because I really did not word that in at all a complex manner . Trivia? The planet that the first two Alien films are set on is called LV-426.

Bananas are not fruits, they are seeds. Year 11 science teached me this.

The above fact was also on QI. Shigeru Miyamoto is apparently a semi-professional dog breeder.

I always use this one, but I love it, so ... . A pig's orgasm lasts for half an hour. f**k, if humans didn't think they were so ugly, I'd say a pig's life sounds pretty damn great . Well, apart from the whole eating your own shit lark.
