  1. I can't even draw a straight line with a ruler, so none of the above for me. lol
  2. Hm, I guess I could say the Sailor Moon theme. DiC's Sailor Moon theme because it's so close to Moonlight Densetsu. lol I don't favor this over the original (Head Chala), but I do like it....Rock the Dragon from DBZ. The Monster Rancher theme. It's catchy to me. Samurai Pizza Cats theme. It's just too funny.
  3. Wish my computer could still play disks. I have to use my DVD player. lol Thinking about it, that may just be the nostalgia talking. It was my favorite of the the main Sonic Genesis games (Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles).
  4. Hm, I like quite a few. Some of my favorite soundtracks are... Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2 Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Chorno Cross Final Fantasy IV, VI, IX, X Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess I just recently bought the soundtrack to Breath of the Wild (even though I can't play it). I haven't listened to it yet, though. I hear it's really nice, though.
  5. Yep, loads. It says, "Aru hareta hi..." It could mean "On that sunny day..." or "On that fine day..." Something like that. It's like the opening line of a story book. I would say, "On that fine sunny day..."
  6. I think it should always be sorted out by genre. For instance, in the first post, Clannad After Story was mentioned. I saw it...it was...okay, I guess, but that style and genre just isn't for a person like me. Too sappy. For extreme stupidity and comedic randomness, I would recommend a series like Excel Saga or the Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu series. For something with sci-fi and action, I would recommend Cowboy Bebop. For people who like big robots and mechs, I would just point them to the Gundam franchise. It has a 40-year history...one of the series are bound to draw a person in. For a fighting series, I guess I'd recommend Dragon Ball, Hunter x Hunter, Naruto, etc. So, um, yeah... lol
  7. A couple of series I really like are Yoroiden Samurai Troopers and Lupin III (1971 version)...but neither are timeless as they definitely reflect the times they were made in, especially the latter. It just screams late 60s/early 70s. To me, it's like comparing the 1960s run of the Jetsons with its 1980s run. As a kid, I definitely preferred the latter as the former felt slightly sexist to me...especially that STUPIDITY over how bad women drivers were. Hm, maybe a good example of a "timeless classic" is something like Sazae-san. You can pick it up anyplace, and it doesn't feel too dated despite its being on since 1969. The writers/animators purposely keep it that way too, I heard. It's not boggled down by a lot of pop cultural references or a lot of super high technological gadgets. The stories are also nice and simplistic and good for the whole family. I guess another I'd pick is maybe Cowboy Bebop. It's set in the future, but it isn't too farfetched either. It had nice characters, stories, action in some eps, etc.
  8. I can read everything, except for that third character. It's not clear enough for me. Could you take another photo of it, please? A clearer one? Edit: But for the sake of argument, let's say that it does say, "Turkey sandwich". lol
  9. At the time I came up with my name, I was really into two series in particular...kind of. Okay, I just couldn't think of anything. lol SSJ = Super Saiya-jin (DBZ) Jupiter = Sailor Jupiter (DBZ) 81 = year of birth
  10. What anime series do you like? Just read the manga series that they were adapted from. After that, just look into series based on the genres that you enjoy.
  11. I didn't know you guys were still doing this. Enjoy everyone.
  12. Cool, so right here in Tokyo. Hope you enjoy it. From Waseda, you can easily visit Ikebukuro and Sunshine City.

  14. Cool. Which part will you be moving to and how long will you stay here?
  15. Sorry, I've been busy with the new job all. I still check the board, but not posting much. ^^

      New jobs can be all sorts of exciting and hectic all at once... here's hoping that it's a good one! :o

  16. *Points to earlier post in this thread regarding English teaching* Every situation is different. Just because your friend found it stressful, doesn't mean the job itself is stressful. It depends on the company or one's boss and that goes for any job a person has, even in one's native country. Maybe your friend had a bad work environment, which led to the job being stressful.
  17. Before moving here, I'd never visited either. For working purposes, I'd recommend finishing up university and getting your degree. It's an immigration requirement. You could always try studying over here. There are places like Waseda that caters to international students.
  18. Well then, you get 90 days right off the bat.
  19. I felt this way about Hellsing and Noir. Neither series took place in Japan, nor were the characters Japanese (aside from the assassin girl in Noir), so seeing these dubbed didn't bother me much.
  20. Which country are you from?
  21. +Anima!!! Highly recommend it.
  22. Zero for me, but I'm not at all surprised. lol Too new for me.
  23. Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (bka Ronin Warriors outside of Japan). Honestly, I don't know why I favor it so much. I like the story and I like the characters as well as the style, which doesn't exist anymore. Is the show flawed? Definitely. Could it have been adapted better? Of course. But yeah, I still like it. Maybe I really like it because of the real world equivalents associated with the armors.
