But in OAV1, Makoto's supposed to be uncertain of himself.  That's his character, isn't it?  Neil has a nice bit about how Makoto starts as this akward teenager who's worried and defensive about his own sexuality, among other things, and finally only in the end realizes a true inner strength.

Anything other than OAV1 (OAV2, AW, Wanderers) is supposed to be taken with a grain of salt... don't try to find equivalent value in any of them, you will fail.

Hmmm.... well I wouldn't say he's so unsure of himself. Maybe a bit "off" because he's suddenly lumped into another world. "Fish out of water" scenario (Fujisawa is too hung over to be affected, it would appear). If anything, he certainly gets on the ball fast. By the second episode (if I'm remembering right) he's already working out a plan to get back to earth.

The brain works, doesn't mean "little Makoto" knows where to go ;p

Sexuality is like half your humanity.  And 17 is one of those fun awkward years alright...

A little forum advice: Instead of just saying you're confused, try asking about the particular part that's confusing you for additional explanation.

First off, I watch most Anime subbed but do, on occasion, enjoy some dubs out there.

OVA - I was very impressed over how great the dub/acting was.
The "Western" sense of humour really brought out the series to a whole new level compared to the sub.

Wanderers - About half way through the set, I couldn't stand the dub/acting anymore; what the hell was Pioneer thinking.  It doesn't even compare to the perfection they did on the OVA.  Plus, I had never realized how much I hated Makoto's dub voice.  And whats up w/ Alliele's dub character ???.  If you compare the dub w/ the sub then you'll know what I mean.  I had to rewatch the entire series from the beginning w/ original Japanese subtitles.  Much, much more enjoyable by far ;D.  Thank god I did considering how it ended.

Alt. World - I have yet to see.  Starting tomorrow ;D.

We all know Wanderers was just a slap-stick version of El-Hazard to begin with.  What exactly about "how it ends" bothered you?
