Anime Wow... they're just like me!: Characters you identify with
Magus replied to Balinese's topic in Otaku Central
Hmm..... How should I start this.... Ok, I was chatting with a friend over AIM and whatnot and he said I put him in the mind of Mugen. I had to think about it for a bit and I was like...... damn.... he's right. I didn't think I was giving much about myself away. I guess what really showed that was I use to blow up over every little thing that was said to me. As for who I think I'm like. I would think I went through a metamorphasis within the past 5 years. (Well 6 if you want to start counting this year) Around that time (2000) I would say I was more of a silent type. Didn't care much for the spotlight. Never talked down on people. Calm and Laid back. Much like [b]Kurama[/b]. Year after that, (01) I became more of the silent mysterious type. Didn't reveal anything about myself even when it came to meeting new classmates. Instead of being shunned from people. I tried to keep myself away from them. Had a few friends and I got alone with everyone so to speak, I just would never talk. If someone would step up in my face I'd talk down to them with the quickness. Of course I mean was like [b]Hiei[/b] at this time. 2 years later (03.... skipped 02 because I was pretty much the same) This year is probably where [b]Mugen[/b] kicked in the most. I didn't take too much from anyone. On or off the internet. If something negative was said to me. I'd lash out without warning. I was more blunter than ever. Said whatever that was on my mind. At the same time I kepted a cool head with it. 04..... (the crappiest year of all time) I became more hot headed and sarcastic together. (although I was sarcastic since 9 years old) I was colder than ever. Only thing I really cared for this year were animals. I tried to keep to myself but every time I tried. I was being bothered. I say was a mixture of [b]Mugen[/b] and [b]Yusuke[/b] Beginning of 05 I was almost the same as 04. I even snapped at one point. (but I won't get so far into that) Later on I was a little more level headed. I was still a hothead. Still sarcastic, still a little cold and a little more caring . At this point I'd say I was no longer similar to Mugen. I'd say I was a cross between [b]Yusuke[/b] and [b]Ichigo[/b] (Bleach) Now I'd still say I'm a cross between those two. Just add on alot more sarcasm and I'm still as hot headed as ever. And there you have it. Sorry if I bored you. -
I can't really say that I'm a fanboy lol. (I hate all the fanboyism / fangirlism stuff) [quote name='judgement']But seriously, no because I once had a Gamecube and it disappointed me with the titles they had. It is great for little kids and their family's but not for me.[/quote] Agreed. Even though I started off with Nintendo, the whole "fun" concept wore off on me after owning 5 games on the N64. I don't own a gamecube because of all the kiddy / family games.... Mario party, Super Smash bros, Pokemon etc etc isn't really my cup of tea you know. As far as the Revolution goes..... No I won't get it. Even if it was sold for $99. I've lost interest in Nintendo. The idea of a remote as a controller.... It doesn't really do a thing for me. (I'm pretty hard to please when it comes to gaming because I'm not looking for anything innovating.) And this video that's being talked about.... I'm assuming it's the same video that was shown at E3? Where they're showing different ways in how to use the controller? If so, I saw it on G4.... and it wasn't impressing.

My favorite anime has been narrowed to 1 (took a while) and it's [i]Ghost in the Shell:SAC[/i] and I mean both. (I always thought they were one in the same though but "shrugs") I haven't seen the whole series yet but it suckered me in. While I admit I probably still don't understand the full story but I will listen to every single word of it. (granted that I've never been into politics or secret services, fbi type things.) I can't relate to any of the characters but it has a nice cast. None of them are annoying IMO. The action is top notch (when there isn't any dialogue) which is always a plus being the action fan that I am. I consider this to have the best animation out there. (I'm pretty close-minded about it too so it'll be hard to convince me until I see it ^_^) What was knocked down to 2nd was Cowboy Bebop and then Hellsing and Yu Yu Hakusho. I do agree with Stark about Samurai Champloo as well. The only reason I haven't said anything about it is because I want to see how it turns out before doing any high ranking on it. Mugen is absolutely hilarious. [quote name='Stark']When walking they look like their walking. When running, they look like they're running.[/quote] I actually found Mugen's running funny.... Arched back isn't really how people run atleast I haven't seen anybody run like that.

I have no idea.... I didn't really plan much for this year. I'm more of the "take it as it comes" type of guy. (Whenever I plan something it sort of backfires.... so I say "whatever" or something equalled to that.) Who knows.... Hopefully I can maintain a job for more than 5 months this time around without getting laid off. One things for sure.... I'll do alot more traveling. (1 l or 2 l's?) I don't think I got out much last year.... Which is more than likely why 05 was boring.
-
You bring up some good points Ikillion. I just always thought the hero was suppose to be the over powered character... lol. Back to what division [spoiler]his father[/spoiler] was the captain of though. Here's what some people said and some of it sort of makes me wonder a bit more... [quote][spoiler]. He is a Shinigami in the Captain Class. 2. He knowns more than he lets on. 3. He has a history of some kind with Urahara Kisuke. If you are basing your evidence off the fact that Ichimaru Gin is the Fairly New Captain of the 3rd Division then you can just as easily say that Kurosaki Isshin was the Captain of the 6th Division; as Kuchiki Byakuya was promoted to that rank at around the same time Ichimaru became the the 3rd's Captain. You could also say that he was the Captain of either the 8th or the 13th because, as you recall, Ukitake Juushiro and Kyouraku Shunsui weren't always the Captains of those Divisions either. Or that he led the 5th Division before Aizen Sousuke was around since they never specify exactly how old he is. Then there were the previously stated 11th Captain who faked his own death and the 10th Captain before Hitsugaya Toushiro. My point is that there is no evidence to support which squad he was Captain, Vice-Captain, Third Seat or even in at all. This is all conjecture on our parts which I freely admitted to by calling my theory just that, a theory. The only way we can find out for certain is if Kubotite, the creator of Bleach, gets around to telling us. Until then it's all just theory. [/quote][/spoiler] [quote][spoiler]Yoruichi was hidding for 100 years and Urahara got exiled around the same time maybe? Isshin stated the last time he went into Shinigami form was 20 years ago. If he indeed was a Captain, the changes in Captains would have to be VERY recent. 1st - Nope 2nd - I have a strong feeling Yoruichi was Captain then left and Soi Fong took over right after. 3rd - Possible, so are most of the other divisons. 4th - He is a doctor after all... 5th - When Hinamori first started training Aizen was Captain of the 5th, it would've taken a long time to get up to Vice Captain. Hinamori is good but not that good... I have a feeling Aizen was a Captain for quite some time. 6th - Byakuya probably had a Captaincy reserved for him or something, he's strong and of noble family. But it's still a possible choice. 7th - Possible 8th - Kyouraku was the first. 9th - Possible 10th - Hitsugaya is indeed the youngest Captain, I could see as a possiblity. But I think he would've recongized Ichigo's last name or seeing his predeccessor. 11th - Kenpachi did defeat the previous Captain but they never stated how long ago he did this. Tousen was disturbed by Kenpachi's fight still.. so if it was long ago and he's still uneasy about it... I don't know, I have a feeling it was pretty recent ^^;; 12th - Already talked about it. 13th - Ukitake was the first. We know too little information to give him a definate spot but I'm liking all the speculations and theories =) [/quote][/spoiler] They bring up some nice points that makes me go hmmm..... Now I gotta put my brain to work..... But I'll do that after I see the next chapter.
-
Nothing much about my custom title. I mean if you want the definition..... [quote]ruthless adj : without mercy or pity; "an act of ruthless ferocity"; "a monster of remorseless cruelty[/quote] With this coming from me.... Lets see.... If I'd hurt your feelings I wouldn't care. ^_^ (I could go into deeperdetails.... but whatever) Simple as that. Nothing spectacular.

What do you do when you have nothing to do?
Magus replied to 2010DigitalBoy's topic in General Discussion
When I'm bored I usually come online (that is if none of my other family members aren't on here) and browse the net but sometimes that's not good enough. I try to play a game or 2.... But half the times I have to be in a mood to play them games.... Thus making it even more boring. Having days off when you know you won't have anything to do is just the crappiest feeling ever. My friends always wants to go to the movies..... I don't particularly care for the theatres any more since I've been kicked out of one. (Happened back when I was like 15-16 years old) In any case. Most of the times when I get real bored I tend to get really sleepy. So I guess you can say when I get too bored I go to sleep. -
I was just reading over chapter 188. And I was wondering... [spoiler]Has anyone thought about what division was Ichigo's father was the captain of? That is if he was a captain in the 1st place. Urahara stated that he was at the level of a captain but nothing else was really mentioned. So what are your thoughts..... [/spoiler] Just thought I'd try to make a conversation instead of getting the same "I think bleach is cool and what not" If I shouldn't be discussing this here please let me know and I'll make a Bleach topic in the manga part of the forum.

Anime What anime do you wish you never saw in the first place?
Magus replied to serenayasha's topic in Otaku Central
[quote]This goes for everyone out there.. AMERICANIZED Anime is a load of horse crap! I don't know what it is, these companies just don't get it. take for example DragonBall..awesome anime, but when they put it onto american tv, they totally ruined it..[/quote] And yet we all have our opinions on what we think is great or not. Really. I see no point in getting pissed off at someones views on an anime that you like. I can see if they are saying "People who watch this show sucks" but no one is saying anything like that. So..... yea.. "shrugs" -
More than likely 1 at a time. Depending on the price I may buy 2. If a box set is like around $60 - $70 I may get it. (I'm a cheap person ^_^)
-
[quote]Bleach: Now I know you must know what this is but for once this is a show that I think follows pretty well with the manga. Yet nobody ever seems to die but they do get pretty close to the point of death...just so close.[/quote] I don't have the time to download from the internet. (56k user) And I share the computer so....... [quote]Well, it seems that you're pretty hard to please, but hey, isn't everyone?? XD[/quote] Lol. Yes, I am very hard to please. In any case a couple of animes I wanna no about. Saiyuki and Peacemaker Kurogane. (sp?) What are they about and are they any good?
-
I didn't bring back the other thread because it was hard to tell who was being talked to... especially when no one would quote you. (Kind of hard to tell what was being recommended to who) In any case.... Getting into the new year and such I plan to buy more than 1 anime this time. I'm an action-holic. I favor swordsplay (Rurouni Kenshin) and martial arts animes, but I also like gunplay as well. I don't really care much for the romantic type animes (maybe because I'm cold-hearted ^_^) I'm not into the kiddish shows. I don't particularly care for comedy, but if it's in there with the action (something like Samurai Champloo or Cowboy Bebop) I'll give it a whirl. Anyways.... These are the animes I have. Cowboy Bebop (and movie) Hellsing Samurai Champloo Ghost in the Shell: SAC and a few of 2nd GIG (and 1st movie) Rah-Xephon Rurouni Kenshin Yu Yu Hakusho Dragonballz Vandread G Gundam Gungrave Ninja Scroll Currently recording IGPX and currently watching Evangelion. I had Trigun but I have to get it again. That's pretty much it. As you can see, I haven't seen many animes. My resources are very limited. As I don't have the time to download anime off the internet. I can only buy them or watch what's on tv. And these are the animes I will not touch for various reasons. One Piece Naruto Inuyasha Full Metal Alchemist (I get pissed off at this alot) Witch Hunter Robin FLCL Wolf's Rain (same reason for FMA) Edit: I did copy and paste some of this ^_^
-
I'd have to say 05 was just a regular year for me but it was way better than 04... (You can say I was just time bomb ready to snap on anyone that said something wrong to me.) Anyways.... there was nothing really exciting this year for me to care about. Had a few giggles and that was from watching tv or joking around. I thought my 21st birthday would be atleast a little exciting but nothing...... went to a casino and won about $600-700. Other than that.... work and school.

(mature???)Random question! What turns you on?
Magus replied to orbindo's topic in General Discussion
Uhhh.... before I answer this question. Is it what turns me on or what do I look for in the opposite sex? (Alot of the answers sounds like what you're looking for in the opposite sex) What turns me on......? Guess I'll be the 1st to say it. A woman that is a tease. That's the only real thing that turns me on these days. Staring at a female's body and picturing things "coughs" has gotten a tad bit old and doesn't really do anything for me these days. What I look for in a lady? Uhh... Independency as well as not so stuck up. I like women who can take care of themselves but also open minded. -
To counter Keyblade about laughing at them kissing..... To be honest.... I don't find anything funny about Naruto at all. Maybe I don't have a sense of humor..... but then again, if I didn't I wouldn't find Bleach or Vandread funny.... "shrugs" Anyways, I'll go out on a limb here and say I don't like anyone out of team Kakashi (except for Kakashi) for many different reasons. (But I'm pretty sure you've heard them before.) As far as my favorite character(s). I'd say Neji would be my favorite. I can't really explain why.... maybe his technique... or his attitude "shrugs"
-
For me.... I always thought Yu Yu Hakusho was a duller version of DBZ as far as the fighting goes. (This was when I was hooked on DBZ at the time) But I always found myself watching the next episode..... wondering what would happen next and why everyone liked it over DBZ. The episode that really made me say "damn" was one of the chapter black episodes..... (Yusuke vs the Doctor) I'm trying to get the Dark Tournament series because I've only seen a little bit of that saga / arc. In any case. Let's just say now I'm a huge fan of the series. Favorite character happens to be Yusuke. I can relate to him in so many ways.... Being sarcastic would probably be the biggest comparison. I would usually say my favorite characters are the silent or calm type.... (this had me liking Hiei out of all the characters the most but it changed.... so yea...) I did not see yesterday's episode because there was a snow storm (somewhat) yesterday and it blocked my satellite (sp?) signal so to speak. It was out for quite sometime too. (from 12 am - 8 am) So can someone tell me what happened..... That is if anyone caught it. (Yes, I'm asking for someone to spoil that episode for me ^_^)
-
I take back what I said about Bleach being liscensed by Viz. Turns out it was very old news at ANN and it was a manga thing....
-
Personally, I don't care if you're a bad guy or not. (No offense but that's just how I am. I'm more of a sarcastic and not caring type of guy so..... "shrugs") Anyways.... I do agree with Grace. This whole thing about protecting the weak such...... Makes you sound like you've been watching too many animes. Although I have a question. You like to fight and argue and such right. If the person that you're arguing or fighting against gets the best of you then what? That question really serves no purpose but then again.... alot of things don't. "shrugs" [quote]But i will still argue my *** off here just to be difficult thank you last person who posted.[/quote] Does this suppose to fear someone? Edit: Crud pucker.... (whatever) got here too late... "shrugs"

Neither one really interest me any more. (I was never interested in Inuyasha to start with) I have enjoyed Naruto (manga) over the anime as well as over Inuyasha, but I've grown tired of it. Naruto has better animation and a better plot IMO. (but it still lagged) I don't particularly care for much of the characters in it though. I'd say I only like about 2-4 characters. I don't care for the music in it either. (US or Japanese) And as far as Inuyasha goes. It just has nice music IMO. Other than that nothing sticks out for me. If I'd still watch it, it'd only be because of Sesshoumaru. (I've gotten tired of him as well lol) Naruto has more ups than Inuyasha but was a still a big let down for me. If only Inuyasha and Naruto did something with the repeating storyline. (Naruto doesn't repeat as much but it repeats. If it's going to repeat... do it in style like Bleach or Yu Yu Hakusho ^_^) Oh yea... my choice is Naruto btw.

[quote name='Burst Angel']PS. I JUST NOTICED PEOPLE COVERING UP NAMES TO NOT SPOIL IT FOR THOSE WHO HAVENT SEEN IT. I DONT KNOW OW TO DO THAT, SO I LEFT BLANKS. I'M SUCH A DORK![/quote] Although I don't see the need to cover up names especially how you used it but the tag is (spoiler) (/spoiler) instead of () you'd use [] Sadly, I can't talk too much about Bleach here.... it'll all be spoilers since I read the manga only. [quote name='Dagger']As for Bleach in America, there's been no word yet. I really hope FUNimation gets it, instead of Viz, but we'll have to wait and see...[/quote] I think Viz already has it. Or maybe just the manga anyway.... But I think I saw that it was liscensed by Viz..... could be mistaken. To those that read the manga and look at the anime. I see the anime is pretty far. Episode 62 was the last I've heard about.... [spoiler]and Aizen is already revealing things and such[/spoiler] My question is are they skipping a few chapters in the manga or are they combining a couple a chapters to make one episode?
-
[quote name='Sesshomarufan']personally i recommend DDR any edition for the ps2 or the xbox. you would also have to buy the pad, but's it's GREAT for parties and even if you wanna lose some poundage.(a good new years resolution) but be forwarned....YOU WILL LOOK LIKE A DORK PLAYING THIS GAME![/quote] And that's why I won't buy it lol. (I'm not exactly the party type) [Quote]i also recommend Ace Combat 4 (ps2/budget title) Capcom Classics (ps2/ budget title/ like twenty games in one) but be forewarned, it is super frickin hard. but it has superb games. guilty gear before isuka any metal gear game soul calibur 2 or 3 (they're pretty much the same anyways) THUG[/quote] I have all 3 Metal Gear games as well as SC1-2. Tony Hawks eh.... I kind got bored of them after 3 but I'll try underground out. [Quote]just a few i recommend. but you should definitely research your material before you make your final purchase. i've made that mistake a couple of times and i'll never make that mistake again. buy the type of games you like, but be open to new experiences. you might discover that you actually like that sort of game, you just needed to see what you wanted for that type of game.[/QUOTE] Yea. I make sure to rent before I buy anything. (Probably why I'm very picky and have few games) Edit: Thanks, you all have been of great help. I think that's all for now. Next time I'll probably ask for a specific genre.
-
[quote]I'd recommend Call of Cthulhu for Xbox.[/quote] ?_? I know you explained it but is that really a game? [quote]Since the game is rare then I have to suggest that you get Virua Fighter 4 if you are into a deep fighting game (ie: not a button basher) then you would enjoy it but since Dead or Alive is present then I am guessing that no you don't.[/quote] Thanks for reminding me. I have to upgrade my list because I had a few games in another room. XIII eh. I'll try it.
-
[quote]If you don't like the gameplay in Katamari Damacy you either A:Have some deep personality issues that make you believe that your games have to be cool[/quote] I have personality issues because I don't care for a particular game.... riiiiight /sarcasm. So what's your point? What you may find great, I may find boring. "shrugs" [quote]OR B: Have a five second attention span.[/quote] Errr.... I'd say you've nailed it. Otogi is like Dynasty Warriors right? (Gameplay wise) I wouldn't really say I'm on a budget. I'm just not willing to spend $50 on a game. (I am very cheap lol)
-
I just rented Xenosage 2. Don't like it. It just seem too cheesy. I'm being very picky with RPG's at the moment. lol (Then again.... I'm picky with games in general lol) [quote]-Prince of Persia (1, 2, 3)[/quote] I just ordered PoP1. I'll get 3 when the price drops. I may pass on 2. (Not a fan of metal and that could affect the whole game for me. But then again if the gameplay is smooth then hopefully it'll be a minor issue like DMC3.) [quote]-Resident Evil 4 (PS2) -Gran Turismo 4 (not too cheap, though)[/quote] Those are too high. [quote]Katamari Demacy[/quote] I'm a vivid action fan. In your honest opinion, do you really think I'd like this? From the looks.... It looks too random for me. What makes this game great? (What alot of people may find great, I may not care for. "FF and GTA")
-
[quote]Actually that third attachment looks like it relates more to the third main arc from the manga which will be translated as the fourth arc of the anime.[/quote] I agree. Although I would've thought that was the 3rd arc.... O_o Isn't it? I know I shouldn't be asking this but has there been any talk about Bleach coming to america yet? (I know ya'll would've posted it already if there was some form of talk about it, but it doesn't hurt to ask ^^ ) I don't have the time to download the anime. Takes too long.... (which is why I only download mangas)
