  1. I'll probably keep doing what I've been doing these last past 3 years. Study and computer. Never had plans, never will. Pretty standard stuff. July-September.
  2. I've never really had a serious injury before. The only injury that really stuck with me is when i was a kid, I fell and cut myself on the forehead. I used to think i was harry potter.
  3. I used to be a Neet. It was for 5 months. The thing i hated the most of being a neet is the loneliness and complete isolation. Just a bunch of vague anxieties with a lot of regret.
  4. Confession: I find it hard to motivate myself to keep a relationship with other people.
  5. I'm not really scared of bugs, but moth scare me. Because at a young age, my sister told me that if you were to look at a moth it would blind you. At that age, I wasn't really sure what a moth was, so I searched it up in this picture book. Showed a huge flying bug with wings that appeared to be eyes. I was never the same.
  6. I honestly don't really care if its long or short. I just want to watch a good show, it's simple as that.
  7. Man, I realize I barely watch anime anymore. I spend most of my time talking about anime then actually watching it. lol

    1. Orius

      I feel you, brah. I've been stuck in a similar anime-stagnancy myself. Just couldn't feel motivated to look for anime to watch, unless it's a sequel to a familiar series like Gintama or something.

  8. Surprised no one mentioned this yet. ........ Why is this show not being produced by Kyoto animation? You know.. The parent studio which made the Haruhi franchise? Does anyone know?
  9. Pretty cure (because why not) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX836fYQL4E Tatami Galaxy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkH8ti1gakE Welcome to the NHK http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHs5AjAvFoA GIntama opening 10 (all of them are good, but this one takes the cake for me) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11uUb2hN4Cw Princess tutu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Jsn0dJJkUs Side note: THIS LAG..
  10. Dark souls 2. I'm a big fan of Dark souls, yet I never actually tried dark soul 2. Kind of waiting for the bloodborne PC release
  11. "People die when they are killed". -main protagonist from a porno game adaptation.
  12. Insert "generic rom-com harem/ecchi protagonist". I like the bewbs.
  13. I really want to slap some sense into Griffith. But, on the other hand, I want him to be my husband, since he's my biggest man crush.
  14. I honestly don't like the community that much anymore. I dont really think its cancerous, or filled with weeaboo trash, it's just been changing a lot recently. Ever since the explosion of popularity anime had, back when SAO and AOT was airing, new comers suddenly crowed popular forums. I don't really dislike newcomers, but since it was such a huge wave, a lot of stuff was changing in the community. I'll probably adjust eventually. Also, I've been realizing that a lot of seasonal anime has been leaning toward the dark, gritty kind of genre. The majority of the shows that entitle that statement are usually extremely edgy, that usually have over the top views on the "true" nature of humanity. But before the sudden popularity of anime, these kinds genres weren't really touched, since they were hard to execute and didn't sell very well. But when famous and talented directors made shows with dark themes, they were usually pretty good. Not saying that seasonal anime doesn't have their positive merits, yet I kind of miss all of the stupid shit that was anime. I'm sure there are tons of shows still being released that carry the same feeling as the old style. It might just be imagining it.
  15. You're just having those "voids". We all go through that phase, try other shows similar to it. (like Neon Genesis Evangelion.)
  16. OH BOY, I HEARD MIKU-SAN WAS GOING TO CONFESS TO AWESOME-KUN Come on, can't you be more creative then that? Post this on some one profile. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBfWKmRFTjM
  17. Ugh.. Waifu threads until the end of time. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Asuka langley
  18. Let's try something a little different, post your 9 favorite anime in a 3x3 grid format using the cover of pictures from the show. Since 3x3 grid provide nice visuals, this is mostly directed to people who like recommendations. Here's mine If you're interested by one of these visual cues, here's a list from top to bottom Cowboy Bebop Tatami Galaxy Kaiji The End of Evangelion Furiko Golden Boy Welcome to the NHK Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya Berserk (Honorable mentions, Serial Experimental lain) If you dont know how to use Photoshop or don't have the programs, here. http://bighugelabs.com/mosaic.php it only takes 5 minutes, so don't worry.
  19. Just wondering of anyone here plays card games like, Magic the Gathering, Yugioh, Pokemon, Vanguard, or Weiß Schwarz. Personally, i play Weiß Schwarz, and Yugioh. I run a Persona 4 deck, and a water Gishki deck.
  20. I was honestly getting bored of /a/ and 4chan shit. So I just googled anime forums. BANG, im here.
  21. I honestly don't really care when people call anime "cartoon". And i don't really blame them for calling them cartoons. Well, that's how i used to feel at least. It's kinda weird seeing people who haven't heard of anime since the explosion of SAO and AOT.
  22. J-Just when are they going to release this show. Every time I check the seasonal charts, I swear to god at the corner of my eye, I see Digimon Tri episode 2, 6 hours.
  23. I can see where your coming with this analogy of vegetables. But you see, I actually was introduced through Subs and at the time when I started investing a lot of time on anime, Dubs were despised as this some sort of lower form of acting. (and too some degree, It still is) And for the most part, I took up there advice. It was only recently that I've been actually quite interested in dubs. I'm not going to plague the forums saying that "I don't want to watch my anime sub because it takes away immersion and the action of the show", that counter argument is extremely flawed and not my true feelings. Well, Pokemon was voiced by a company which had a set audience in mind, children. For the most part, the viewer doesn't understand anime (and a bit of Japanese) culture as a whole, its understandable why they would use American jokes, even if its not funny. If you were too look at some of the other studios which voice Dubs, they have a set audience in mind, its not children, but us. It's much different because the translation/dub stays in tack to not arise controversy between the studio and the community. Even if the dub doesn't make any sense. Well, objective thinking aside. I never really thought that anime (arguable the studio) had a set mindset of making characters look "asian". It's anime for crying out loud, un-natural hair colors, big expressive eyes, and excessive boob jobs. Personally, I think its the culture surrounding the show which makes up its setting. look at "spice and wolf". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After being completely immersed in English voice acting, I realize these past few month good dub shows take the standard subs and make expressions and feelings that the sub couldn't convey as well. Not saying that Sub doesn't have it's own positive merits, I would even go as far to arguer that to some degree, majority of Japanese voice acting is better then here. Considering that it takes years of training before you can even set foot inside a acting studio in Japan. Unlike here, which the job is given to untrained actors. Edit: Fixing all my silly grammars and stuff. lol
  24. 2 month? Those are 2 days in terms of how often "Berserk" updates. The author only updates it once every 3-6 month or something. He keeps playing Dragon Quest and Idol Master. Picture VERY relevant.
