Rules...
1. No one can present himself directly to another of our friends. There must be a third person to do it.
2. Never look at the wives of friends.
3. Never be seen with cops.
4. Don't go to pubs and clubs.
5. Always being available for Cosa Nostra is a duty - even if your wife is about to give birth.
6. Appointments must absolutely be respected. (probably refers to formal rank and authority.)
7. Wives must be treated with respect.
8. When asked for any information, the answer must be the truth.
9. Money cannot be appropriated if it belongs to others or to other families.
10. People who can't be part of Cosa Nostra: anyone who has a close relative in the police, anyone with a two-timing relative in the family, anyone who behaves badly and doesn't hold to moral values.
Fortunately nobody in the actual Mafia would be dumb enough to call himself out as such. It's actually rule number 1 on the list. So we don't have to worry about ninja being involved with organised crime
1. A criminal without a boat.
2. A criminal with a boat. Arg.
Those be the rules of the sea ya seadog!
Does that mother f****r have four elbows? Gasp.

That said, I loved Wolf's Rain to bits that one time I watched through it. None others I've experienced have captured my appreciation.
Tl;dr: I loved Wolf's Rain, but I still wish people wouldn't bang on about anime in general quite so much.
As an aside, I imagine this offtopic-ness is fine because it was quite a non-sequitur from ninja.
I find them extremely time wasteful to watch alone.
On the other hand comic books and manga, such as One Piece, I love to read on my own. With added animation, voice acting and sound effects Anime intensified my experience with the manga.
I also like to watch cartoons that have good humor and coolness, like The Amazing World of Gumball or Gravity Falls.
And an comic book, anime, such as one piece that is based on true values in life is really something one should try getting into.
I watched 2 episodes per day when I started. Much more enjoyable.
Anime did get a little boring until episode ~300.
Oh yeah, there's also the disparity of most animes — as my understanding goes — being generally better experienced through subbing than dubbing, but most of the time when I watch things, I'm doing something else at the same time. Mapping, for example. Can't read subtitles while trying to do other stuff.
It's not really related to my previous gripe, but why are there so many colossal animes?
Besides One Piece I am currently reading The Gamer, Noblesse and Dr. Slump.
Like my self, many people like grand adventures to look forward onto catching up what's gonna happen next. In my case One Piece is so good I rarely read anything else.
And because it happens once a week its easy to make time for it.
It was a long time ago that I looked into it, so I will have to have another look during the summer.
And I don't see what's illegal for you there, it has been 10 years already since it came out, if it could make any more money than it has it would have already be doing so.
