Non-El-Hazard Topical Discussions / While we're on the topic of other anime & fiction

I FINALLY managed to watch all of Martian Successor Nadesico, with the exception of the Prince of Darkness movie. Plan to remedy that situation tonight.
For some reason I don't seem to be able to watch a series through until it's at least four or five years old. Princess Nine was an exception, though that fine series seems to have an even smaller following than El Hazard does.
Seems I have a penchant for series that leave massive openings for back stories and continuation ficts. As you all know I've dabbled into that arena myself from time to time with a couple different series. Doubt I'll be all het up to write anything for Nadesico anytime soon, however, mostly owing to the fact I'm starting a "new job" again!
(Actually, it's an in-company transfer. My last day as a signal technician for CN Rail on the Grand Trunk Western in Indiana was yesterday. Monday I report to Fond du Lac, Wisconsin where I'll assume the role of a CN signal supervisor on the former Wisconsin Central property. With that, I'll be busy learning new faces and names, new signal equipment, and a new set of work rules [as I leave the craft and enter the management ranks.])
So it's nice to set back, read some of the Nadesico body of work, and let someone else drive for awhile.
I pulled a couple from both MediaMiner and Fanfiction.net. One I managed to read last week I really liked called Chasing The Darkness.

Verdict is still out on Truth & Consequences:

Is anyone aware of a Nadesico forum? (Like any forum out there can hold a candle to this one...)
