I was actually a work at the time, and I remember we all stopped and starred at the television wall in shock. Everybody, staff, customers, everybody... just stopped. It was the single most surreal moment of my life.

9/11, I was in 4th grade and my teacher told us what happened. It was the talk of the playground and it was on every TV station when I got home.

On 9/11 I was about 4 years old. I was at my preschool and didn't know what was going on at the time. It was a normal preschool day for me. I didn't know until years later.

I basically had the same experience as Yuki's Sword. It wasn't until we watched a documentary about it in eighth grade that I had the full impact of the event.

I think it took for me until I read articles and stuff about 911 that I know full well what happened and the various repercussions that it caused. By then I'm in high school, 10th grade-equivalent.

I was around the age of 2 or 3 when 9/11 happened. I didn't learn more about it until around 3rd grade when they showed documentaries about it.

My aunt lives in Brooklyn and she happened to be visiting us in Texas when it happened, and was meant to fly back that day but obviously didn't. We were really lucky.

I was in Art Class at the time and I remember the teachers running around from room to room and whispering in each others ears, then their eyes would get all wide. I knew something was up. I didn't find out until second period when I got to History Class, where it was on TV.

I was nine, and at school when 9/11 happened. They announced it over the P.A. system soon after it happened, and lots of parents came to pick up their kids from school right there and then, mine included. Both my parents came home early from work and picked my sister and I up from school out of fear something was to happen here (Ontario, Canada). We were all scared.

I was just leaving class and my mom said that some towers in New York had been hit and that the top of both had fallen, and I asked whether they'd still be around, but smaller. I didn't really know what was going on until I got back homr and turned the TV on, around four hours late.

I was like 10, but I was already reading a comic magazine with lots of political information by then so I understood what it meant not too long afterwards.

I was leaving school also; my mum's friend picked my brother and I up and drove us home, and the radio kept talking about an explosion in New York. Then, when we got back, all of the TV channels were on rolling news stations. For a spliiiiiiit second I was kinda annoyed that cartoons weren't going to be shown, but then I listened to what was actually happening and thought this was probably a good time not to watch The Cramp Twins.

This is The Cramp Twins, Toujours! It was never very good, but it was something I always seemed to watch for some reason.

Dear God I hated the Cramp Twins. Although it pales in comparison to how terrible the Horrid Henry series is/was. My brother watched them daily, couldn't stand it.

Other way around for me. I know Cramp Twins but never heard of Mew Mew Power before.

I remember The Cramp Twins and Mew Mew Power (Otherwise known as Tokyo Mew Mew). From what I can remember from The Cramp Twins is that the purple dude was the bad one while the other dude was sorta nerdy.

Oh, I remember the Cramp Twins! I disliked that series, but it was on all. the. time. on CN Spain. I enjoyed the Powerpuff Girls, Dexter and Codename KND much better though.

I vaguely remember the Cramp Twins...like, as if I watched an episode once or something and then never again. xD Looking at that picture reminded me of it.

I have never heard of Tokyo Mew Mew or Cramp Twins. The only old shows I remember are Cartoon Cartoons lol. And some others like Tom and Jerry and stuff. I don't think I've ever disliked any cartoon show, or probably I just don't remember xD

I've watched some AMV's of Tokyo Mew Mew, but was completely unaware that it was ever released for broadcast outside Japan.

As for Cramp Twins, totally clueless on that one.
