Japan

[COLOR="DarkRed"]One particular season may suck but the other seasons are awesome for example. I got fed up with Naruto but I like Time Skip.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]If the show is annoying I stop watching it befiore it gets to the point of hating it. Revolver, if you hate the Naruto series then perhaps you'd like Naruto Time Skip where Naruto and them are a lot older and more mature. [spoiler]Gaara is the leader of his village of the sand [/spoiler][/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]The dubbed voice of Ryuk is awesome and close to the Japanese voice. I approve of the dubbed version.

[quote name='James'][color=#606060]What about them? You have to follow that argument to its logical conclusion. What about homeless people who can't afford to buy a CD single from a music shop? Should they be allowed to steal it because they can't afford it? I don't have a whole lot of sympathy here. Yes, it sucks if you can't access something like that...but I've come across plenty of things I'd want to buy but am not able to for whatever reason. Often this relates to stuff released in Japan and not in Australia. But I would never say that I have the right to acquire such things illegally simply because I can't access them any other way. You won't fall over and die without a CD; it's a product, it's a luxury item.[/color][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkRed"]I sometimes feel like you you misunderstand me a lot lately. I cannot buy things online. When I saw that $60 cd I never bought it. I do not download music. I am given music from others who bought the cds themselves and let me have it. If I like the music I go out and buy the music. If I do not like it, I give it back to them or do not listen to the stuff they gave me. If it is an Asian music cd that I want, I wait till I go to Seattle where I can buy it relatively cheaper. Music is music. If I can't afford it oh well. I do not steal it. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]What about people who cannot buy online? Not saying that I do not support foriegn music since I buy cds that I want. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Seeing current high school students come to where I work to eat makes me feel old. Coming here makes me feel old. Being an aunt to my 9 month old nephew makes me feel old. Playing games like pokemon and realizing it is the same game I played when I was 12 or younger. (Sonic ^^)[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]HORSE The Band! I heard of that band before. Is that band the one with the cowbell? EDIT: No wait, BIRDO!!! That song really makes me laugh. Who likes H.I.M., Lacuna Coil, or Nightwish? [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]I bought a cd a long time ago and somehow I lost it. It had a bonus track that was a tribute to Army of Darkness. Awesome cd. I recently bought Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV: Volume 1: From Fear throught eh Eyes of Madness a month ago. Both are really awesome cds. When I first saw a music video I was literally creeped out. I think it was Atlantic City. Not sure. They are really good to listen to for studying. A lot of people should pay Metallica royalties too but they do not. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]I know that downloading music is illegal but what is a person to do if they want music from other countries that they cannot get unless they pay 60 dollars for the cd. Some are not lucky to even find the cd for sale over here. What about the downloading of anime? We do that to get the latest series and to watch the authentic show and not some 4kids concoction.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]But any primate dies to the almighty level four hot virus ebola. That makes you bleed from the inside out and kills you in two weeks with no cure. [/COLOR][IMG]http://discovermagazine.com/2007/apr/caught-in-the-hot-zone/ebola-skull-250.jpg[/IMG]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Here are some more pictures of the iguana as requested. This clay sculture took me about a month to complete. It was my class project in my fourth semester of pottery in high school. I always wanted an iguana and my parents said no, so I made my own.[/COLOR] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/Japan_86/CIMG1470.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/Japan_86/CIMG1471.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/Japan_86/CIMG1472.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/Japan_86/CIMG1473.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/Japan_86/CIMG1474.jpg[/IMG]

Most of the pottery, wooden carvings, scroll saw, bowls, plates, iguana, deather reaper, etc I made myself.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Hooray! Otakuboards is back and running. It was down for a time and now is back. So let's talk about how we are addicted to this place and are in denile when it is not around... Actually, how we are addicted to other sites which may include this one. We all have our stomping grounds on the net. On Otakuboards we all seem to have our moments of complaining and getting annoyed, (I blame PMS, but all girls seem to abuse this) but we always come back. The oldies always come back, curious about what is going on. I was in a bad mood today when I could not log on this morning. This also happens to one other site/thing. I love achaea. It is my favorite game on the net and when the game server is down I get all cranky and sad. I hate it especially when I am leveling my character and I get disconnected all of a sudden. I freak out about whether or not my character is going to die or what. So what games and internet sites do you need a daily fix of or you will go crazy?[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Mitch or Raiha? No wait, Raiha killed Mitch because she has more pictures of herself than Mitch[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]We all know that Botox is quicker and better![/COLOR] [IMG]http://microbes.historique.net/images/botox.jpg[/IMG]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]The best two candy treats in the world. The first one comes from England and the second one comes from Germany. The first one is called Flying Saucers. They are made of an edible foam that melts in your mouth. Inside, they are filled with sweet/sour sugar. YUM [URL="https://www.jollygrub.com/OnLineStore1/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=1204&zenid=51a6c877b713265fcd057601440c8691"]Flying Saucers[/URL] The second is called Kinder eggs. They are made with Germany's superb milk chocolate. It is basically a hollow chocolate egg that has capsule toy inside that you put together. [URL="http://www.malincho.com/kindereggs.asp"]Kinder Eggs[/URL] Though, all English candy is awesome![/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Of course Gavin. Holland is the center of the black market pretty much. You can do any thing or have sex with anyone...The red light district is disturbing, so are house boats with red lights. And Allamorph, found another picture for you. This is an example of DB when he sees that cat in his room when he is busy. [/COLOR] [IMG]http://www.roflcat.com/images/cats/omg.jpg[/IMG]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Fanfiction being poorly written is the reason why I just read the manga over and over. As soon as I read for example, "InuYasha and Kagome saying to eachother you are hot! Let's get it on! When they start to do that, I stop reading fanfics for several months. If I remember right, there were only two decent ones that I read and forty others that I started reading in the past five years. Now that is pretty bad.[/COLOR]

[quote name='James'][color=#606060]Yeah, the vending machines are interesting. I suppose they make sense. After all, maybe it's too embarassing to buy used underwear from a store? If you can run down to a vending machine and choose the pink florals without witnesses, maybe it's better. What makes this all the more weird is that Japan seems to be the only country on Earth to have so many bizarre options for sex-related products. The rest of the planet doesn't seem to be losing sleep over the fact that they can't conveniently purchase used ladies underthings.[/color][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkRed"]Perhaps they aren't as open compared to Japan? I find it interesting that Japan seems so open about things like this but they are so reserved. Perhaps also Japan likes the simplicity of the the panties compared to other 'things' in Europe? When I was in Amsterdam, I found this sticky life sized penis that could stick on the wall if you threw it. It scarred me for life. (I was only 11!)[/COLOR]

[quote name='The Blue Jihad']I say we should just pit Japan and AzureWolf against each other in a fight to the death, videotape it, host the vid, and then discuss it in OL. That'll spice things up a bit. Or better yet, a bunch of you can meet up with me and Charles for our McDonalds Fight Club.[/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkRed"]Can't you be creative enough to find a more interesting pairing? Two sexy ladies fighting to the death is better than just one...against a guy. Or perhaps I'd win because I am just that awesome.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]And James, do not forget the vending machines. Talk about convenience around the clock to help any fifty year old pervert male to get it on.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkRed"]You are a heartless bastard then. You killed Fluffy and I have proof.[/COLOR] [IMG]http://static.flickr.com/29/59880012_913f5a7524_o.jpg[/IMG]

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy'][COLOR="DarkOrange"]Now see, I can't deal with that. There was actully a time where I had removed my clothes, had already opened the porn folder and then realized the my brother's cat was in the room. I had to minimize the image, put all my clothes back on, pause the music, get the ****ing cat out of my room, re-lock the door, probably stub my toe or fall down my stairs since my room in innavigable in the dark, get all the clothes pack off, unpause .[B]..And the Great cold Death of the Earth[/B], bring 98-tan back to the screen (the one guy who understood that just shot milk out of his nose) and restart. At least I was pissed and ready to go like a ****ing steam engine.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [IMG]http://www.oralse.cx/contrib/psakitty.jpg[/IMG] [COLOR="DarkRed"].....and, think of poor Charles[/COLOR]
