Katana

Nope! And I know why! ^^ My friend is totally Lord of the Ring obsessed and said Legolas is old, meaning he had time to grow his hair! And besides, I think her (yes, I'm using my opinion) face is too delicate to be a guy's. And the hair is looooong. Reminds me of Rem. ^^

Name: Ginger (okay, so the real name is Virginia, but that's my nickname) Age: 12 Hair Color: Brown with light-brownish (natural) streaks Eye Color: Icy blue Height: Err...um...(checks the height meter) Woo! 5'1'' Wardrobe: Various stuff - carpenter jeans, normal jeans, (mostly the color of) blue t-shirts, etc. Personality: Um...I'm a goofy person, and smart, and..uh...weird. Yeah, that works. ^^ Hair Style: Short. It goes down to my earlobes, and I'm growing out my bangs, which are about down to the middle of my neck. Favorite Music Type: Jpop, Jrock Favorite musical Band/Artist: Umm....mostly See Saw, I love that group! Oh, and Frank Zappa is awesome. :D And so are The Pillows! (I like too many Japanse bands...- _ -...) Hobbies: *cracks knuckles* Drawing, reading, writing, watching anime, reading manga, surfing the internet, making banners/avis, stuff like that. Oh, and playing videogames. ^^

They're both good, but they look a little...rough. Here's my suggestion: After you first make it, save it is .png. Open up another program of the same kind (two MS paints, two Paint Shop Pros, etc) and copy the one from the first program to the second program, save it as .gif or .jpg, and bam! You have a nice a clear image! ^^ Oh yeah, ratings...( :sweat: ) Number 1: 9.5/10 Number 2: 8/10

Akurei heaved a sigh. "Am I invisible?" She took a step into the cave when she, like the others, was stopped by the guard. "Is there a reason you like to stop everybody?" she asked. "No" he replied. "I want you to-" "Be safe? I can handle myself." The guard sighed as Akurei walked in. She heard voices. "Mountain," said a voice. The sound of stone splitting met her ears. There was a loud roar, like that of a monster. Except the roar was kind of...hollow. "C'mon you guys! Attack!" came another voice, this time from a guy. Akurei, being the person to not notice things, walked in further to see a party of four attacking the beast. "You think they can do it?" somebody asked her. "Huh? Who are you?" She turned her head around to see another female player. "Tia," came the response. "And-" "Akurei." "Right. Well, Akurei, you think they can manage on their own?" Akurei looked Tia over. She was a heavy blade, that was for sure, and seemed just her age, maybe older. She looked like a seemingly delicate person, yet a delicate person wouldn't have a sword. "I think so. Let's just watch to see what happens."

AKA, a revival post. --------- Moriko looked around. Her face squished against her hand as she observed Rann trying to crack open a nut while Reena and Katumea egged him on, throwing small pebbles at his arms. Eowyn sat under a tree, her staff sticking way up in the air (like in the 3rd Inuyasha song with Miroku under the tree). She appeared to be meditating, an aura of lavender surronding her body. Mori-Sora walked up to Moriko and sat down, than began thinking. Moriko looked at her, a confused look on her face, but then shook her head and stared back at the "let's-make-Rann-mad-as-he-tried-to-crack-open-a-walnut". She began to laugh. "Go go go go go go go!" cried Katumea and Reena at the same time. Rann began to try and open up the nut with his teeth. "Will that work?" Mori-Sora asked, particuarly to no one. "Probably not," Moriko responded. "He's just making his teeth dirty. I could, Katumea could, Eowyn probably could." "Because you have fangs?" Mori asked, in a slightly amused voice. "Yup." They were cut off by a loud cheer from Reena and Katumea, for Rann has somehow managed to crack open the nut. He ate it, a look of triumph on his face. "See?" he said, "I told you I could do it." Moriko looked back at Eowyn. One of her eyes were open, looking at Rann, a smile on her face. "Where's Evean?" Mori asked. "He and Roya went hunting," replied Eowyn. "Oh yeah..." ---- It was one of my short, pointless, yet entertaining posts. I just couldn't let this die. ^^

Ohh! It's so cute! *starts goggling over the little lion* Aw, that's so cute! Oh yeah, forgot to explain my reason...well, my friends and I keep arguing over WHAT it is. Friend A says it's a girl, Friend B says a guy, Friend C says a girl, Friend D says "it's an it", and Friend E just keeps saying it's really cool. ^^ (My school lacks artistic people. XP)

"And I log back on to find myself- "Here." Akurei looked around. She was where she had last saved her game, in a field of grass that blew with the wind. "If I find that girl again...what would I do?" she wonders aloud, her arms folded across her chest, as she walked through the field, her head facing the ground (whew, that's a lot to type! ^^). "I don't do sorrys. That's not me." Akurei looks up and finds a warp gate. "Lucky me," she mumbles, and transports to another level. - - - - - - The guard on duty looks up to see who has just arrived. "You're the second person within five minutes whose come here," he says. "This isn't a very popular place with younger players, like yourself." Akurei's face grows red. "Hey, well, sorry I'm 12, but I can't help that. Anyways, what's this place like?" The guard looks at her in confusion. "What? You've never been here before?" "Nope." "Then why'd you come here?" "I just picked a random level." The guard shakes his head but continues. "It's an area designed to level up players in the mid 50s to early 70s (that sounded weird...hmmm.....). And you are?" "79." "Then I suggest going to another level." "Why?" "Because you won't get much experince here." "You so sure?" "You sure like to talk alot for a kid." "I know."

Okay, well, I just so happened to whip this up yesterday and then I shaded it today. XP Bleh, two day project and I was totally addicted to it. Hehe. I need to ask you all something...do you think it's a guy or girl? I say it's a girl. AH! Gotta go! Parents calling me to go out for dinner...

{In the Real Word} Akurei sits at her computer, a line of tears down her face. "W-what I did was wrong. I know that. How-what-why did that happen? I don't understand..." Akurei looks at her screen and sees an e-mail has popped up. "No, I don't want to know how to lower my insurance costs by 50%..." Akurei looks around in sheer boredom. She decides to just log back on and explore. "I wonder if I'll find that blade today..." ------ Edited because....never mind. :nope:

Akurei stood silent for a moment, in a paralyzed shock. "Why you -" She makes an effort to kill her "attacker", but the older player blocked and then kicks Akurei in the ankle. "Stealing is bad," repeats the player. "And only a rookie like you would do something like that." Akurei gives one of her best death glares. "Rookie? You calling me a rookie? Look, I've been playing this game for two years...[i]with a life[/i]...and at level 79! So watch what you're saying!" Rena begins laughing.. "Hot-headed little blade!" she says, still laughing. "Look kid, I can't level up anymore. 99, that's me." Akurei gives a heavy sigh, silently admitting the fact that this player - this jerk - had won. Silently, she walks away. --- OOC: You're not a jerk, just annyong. ^^ Just kidding. :D EDIT: Bleh, T man, you beat me to posting!

"Are you [i]sure[/i]?" "Uh-huh. It's just like I said, black all over, two sets of black wings, and red eyes! Now will you leave me alone?" Akurei flashed an evil grin. "Right. But I'm sorry, leaving you alone is something I just...cannot do." ... "You were simply an obstacle in the way of my goal," says Akurei, sheathing back her blade. "This player - the one they call Rena - is she really that good?" she wonders aloud. "Ah well. Might as well raid the shop." Akurei begins to pick up usefull items, such as potions and healers. She walks out of hte shop, a small splotch of blood on her sheathed balde. {Message Boards} [i]Posted by Akurei[/i] [size=1][i]Has anybody seen the player known as Rena? I am searching for her on a quest I am preparing to take. If you've seen her, please contact me.[/i][/size] {End Message Boards}

9:00 what? AM? PM? Eastern? Central? Pacific? I live in the Central time zone (Illinois to be percise) and I'm pretty flexible about my online time. I am [i]usually[/i] on from 3-4, then about 4:30 to 5:30 or so, then about 6 to 8, somewhere along that range (central time zone remember!!!). Yeah, well, I'll PM T man if Tsukasa_hack hasn't already. EDIT: I have just PMd T man.

Name: Akurei Age: 12 Gender: Female Type: Blade Master Level: 79 Bio: Akurei doesn't have alot of friends in real life, but has many in The World. She has been obsessed with the game ever since she got it (when she was 9). Akurei tries to make friends with unusual people, mostly because they are the most interesting. In real life, Akurei is an excelling student in 7th grade (doesn't wanna skip) who has always been the youngest in her grade. Akurei is also obsessed with drawing, anime, and manga. Appearance: Link (grr...it better work...*ready to kill link*) Tell me if I need to change anything. ^^ [URL=http://www.animeshrine.com/gallery.php?series=warofgenesis&image=4]Appearance[/URL] PS: Hey, since are characters are so close in age, I can be your freind. :)

*nods head* Yes, KittyLynn, what you see today on the OB's thread "The School Sketches" will be the next hits of anime in twenty-some years. :D Me and my friend (EowynElf) are working on a manga to submit to Tokyopop when (and if) they have the fourth "Rising Stars of Manga" competition. The kid's name is Akurei....or something like that. I left my Japanese-English English-Japanese dictionary at school, but either way it translates to demon. The thing on her chin is a line of blood...yeah. I'll let you imagine. :sweat:

Since I'm only in seventh grade, I'm pretty new to the concept of learning a foreign language. It's mandatory that every seventh grader has to have one quarter of Spanish and one quarter of German. I'm in Spanish right now and have German 4th *dances*, and so far, I love Spanish! I find it to be a pretty interesting language, seeing as how fast it's spoken and all. My mom teaches bilingel kids and she's amazed at how these little first and second graders can speak so fast. I'll tell you right now why I hate German. I think it's stupid. I mean, what's the point of learning a language you'll NEVER use unless you plan on going into some sort of electronics job associated wtih Europe? I find it pointless to learn, seeing as how the Spanish population is growing and growing everyday and German is not. I, personally, would've liked it if they (those "school board" people) have chosen something interesting, like Japanese! I have reason to back this up (besides the fact that I am a major Otaku ^^). The Japanese market is HUGE in the US! Lookie at all the stuff we get from that tiny little island country: TVs, cellphones, cars, computers, furniture, manga, anime (okay okay), food, jewelry, etc etc etc. And I don't know ONE thing the Germans give us. If you think I'm racist, then haha. I'm not. I'm at [I]least[/I] a quarter German, so if I was racist, I'd hate myself. :blackeye: Plea, that's stupid. *heaves heavy sigh* Okay! So what about you guys?

Name: Tsuyoi, nickname of Tsu (pronounced as TE-soy, TE-s-U) Age: Appears to be about 13, really around one thousand Species: Fox demon Gender: Female Appearance: Bright green vest covering blue t-shirt with rolled-up sleeves, slightly baggy blue jeans covering leather boots. Has demon (cat-like) ears on the top of her head, although they and her tail are hardly seen (explained in powers). Has a silver necklace with a piece of onyx dangling from it and a chain on her right side. Blue eyed with brown hair (with magic), white as a demon to match her tail/ears. Weapon: Long, thin sword with a tiger engraved on the blade, a pistol clipped onto her belt (hardly uses), and a fairly long (9, 10 inches) dagger in case she looses her sword Powers: Has an imagrey magic that makes her tail vanish and her ears seem like a humans, yet only members of the side she's on can actually see them. Also has the ability to control a person if they look her straight in the eyes. Bio: Tsuyoi doesn't remember much of her past before her five-hundreth year, but everything after that is like it happened moments ago. She is completly unaware of why she's a demon, how she got her magic, and doesn't know a thing about her family. Came to earth in a human form at 500, and kept being reincarnated since her soul was restless. Because she's been through five hundred years of history, Tsu can be quite wise but doesn't really show it. Personality: In a nutshell, a goof. Likes to bring humor to the situation, but knows when to shut her trap and be quiet. During her fights, she grins evily, revealing her demon spirit and catching her oppents off guard so they can't tell what she's going to do next. Tsu looks 13 and acts 13. She can be a bit immature, saying stupid jokes, but that just goes with her. Organization: Tao's side Okay, so, that good?

Wooh! Yu Yu Hakusho (re-starts *sigh*) in nine minutes! Woo-hoo! On the real note, I drew this up a few weeks ago. The image quality is pretty bad, but the picture isn't. It's my character from the Outcast Rebellion (Adventure Arena), Moriko the Fox Demon. Okay, see ya!

I started this one yesterday in Spanish and finished it today in Math (I wasn't working on it all the time, just in my free time ^^) [IMG]http://http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=495347[/IMG] It's like in those warrior stories and stuff like that, she's suppossed to look...tribal, I suppose. :sweat: That's what the markings on her face are four.

BWAH! Yay, I'm in seventh grade too! Hmm, would've never imagined... Today in band, my teacher nearly exploded to us to tell us that this one girl named "Vickey" (and I immidiantly started laughing, knowing it was a "popular" (aka, b*****) person) was wearing the one of "our shirts" (aka, the band t-shirts) with the words "Band Geek" on the back. Now, my teacher is a former marine rank dude who's in the Royal Airs (well, I don't know what that is) and leader of some drum core thingie, so he has a low-tolerance level. Yeah. Anyways, it gets annoying how all the popular people look at you, their faces half-covered in makeup to hide those lettle specks they call zits, and giving you that you-are-so-much-lower-than-me-on-the-popularity-chart-than-I-am-because-you-are-in-band look. (It's true, so true, for me...) Yeah, well, glad they let you put of your poster. ^^ And PoisonTongue, your ideas were so funny and cool. :D Gotta go try some on Monday...:devil:

Oh! I love blonde jokes and I have two! #1: Two blondes were on vacation and they saw a sign that said Disney Land left. So they went home. #2: There were three girls in a car, speeding and being chased by two cops. One was a brunett, one was a redhead, and the other was a blonde. So, they manage to get ahead of the cops and jump out of their car and (somehow) land in three potato sacks. The cops get out of their car and investigate the potato sacks. The first one kicks the first bag, with the brunette in it and she goes "Woof woof!" "Ah, it's only a dog." The second cop kicked the third bag and the redhead goes "Meow! Meow!" "Aw, it's only a cat." The first cop kicks the third bag, with the blonde, and she goes "Potato potato. Potato potato."

If you could slow them down, that'd be pretty cool, so that we can actually see what they're doing. And, like Baron said, the fact that you got them from a website doesn't exactly help. If you were to make your own, I'd suggest to make them bigger. Like the size of one of the Greeting cards (probably smaller though). ^^ :blulaugh: Well, The Brolly vs. Piccolo one was actually not that bad, so I'd give it a nine, considering the circumstances and all. The second one is...okay. 9/10 6.5/10

I drew this during the...uh...let's see...second day of school. Yeah, that's it. The way I draw chibis is by making their head's u's, that's it. Simple. And then, I don't put in any bodies, so my friends that have ponytails don't have them. Hehe. ^^

In episode 9 of Trigun, Murder Machine, the first scene of the bus and it's luggage show Wolfwood's cross punisher, yet he's not on the bus. Stupid artists and their repeating cels. Also, in that same episode (this one's old) they spell May City two ways - Mei City on the bus and May City in town. And then when Wolfwood leaves town, the sign says Mei City. Bleh, stupid people. And THEN, in the beginning of episode 21, Vash is in the hallway filled with Leonov's puppets. The scene changes and the hallway is empty, then in the next scene the puppets are back. Those are all I can think of for Trigun, but if you've seen the two DBZ movies "Cooler's Revenge" and "The Return of Cooler", then you probably got confused, like me. Cause in Cooler's Revenge, it took place after Freiza was killed, yet Goku was on Earth and Gohan was still a)young and b)Had a tail, which he didn't have since he was like four. And then, in The Return of Cooler, only Goku and Vegeta could go SSJ, yet when would the gang have enough time to get away from Earth while the androids are there? And if they did after the Cell games, then Goku would be dead and not be there. Plus, still, Gohan is still little. And I don't think they would go to Namek in those seven (or nine, whatever) months that Cell gave them, because they'd be too busy training. Well, those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head, but animes can be pretty messed up.

I have to admit, the first one I thought was Trunks because it just looked like him (and I didn't read the title...). The second one is okay, just seems like there could be more to it. 7/10 8/10

Moriko yawned. "Yeah. If we don't do that now, we'll never get it done." "True, very true," replied Reena, fingering her hair. "So let's get going," said Rann, concentrating his energy to become a dragon again. "Should we let Reena?" Tani asked, sounding concerned. "We don't need what just happened to us happen again, you know." Rann stopped. "Yeah, I don't think it'll be a good idea if we let her. No offense, Reena, but we just don't want that incident to be repeated." "You sound like a broken record," replied Katumea, sighing. "That's just what elfy said." "ELFY?" Tani yelled. "WHO YOU CALLING ELFY?" "That's not a real word," chimed in Moriko, who turned to Rann. "Well, you think we can ride on you?" Rann nodded. "Yeah, I think we'll be able to do it. I know that you and Katumea were suppossed to go to the mountains after you finish off the soliders, but you two can't really do much but walk and stuff." "Sorry," said Katumea, sounding a bit agitated, "But me and Morik are on the verge of becoming the Sunday night special." "I can see it now," said Mori-Sora sarcasticly, "Freash from the forest, demons from the Rebellion! Only ten gold pieces a pound!" The group burst out in laughter, everyone except Katumea and Moriko. "Yeah yeah yeah, have your fun. But before you know it, they'll be serving up a healthy dish of dragons and elves and wolves, so shut your trap." There came a loud cough from Phaedra. "So," she said, "Let's go." Rann transformed and everyone climbed on, crammed into certain areas where he was the most stable. Tani healed everybody to the best of her abilities while Reena stood, looking at the ground miles beneath them. "You okay?" Mori asked, walking up to her (with a bit of difficulty, because of the surface the Rebellion was on). "Yeah," came the reply, although it was unsure and shaky. "I just wish there's more of us," Reena waved, indicating herself and Rann, "Out there. It's a lot to hope for, I know, but I still hope for it." "Uh-huh," said Mori, "We all are hoping for the best. For the future. But for the moment, the future doesn't look that good."
