Anime Who's your favorite Fruits Basket character?
Prons replied to HelloKittyLover's topic in Otaku Central
I like all of them, they all seem to be avoid being typecast\sterotypes\exploited, for example there's never a scene where Tohrus parades around in a bikini and I think that's pretty respectable for an anime. Usually after a few episodes anime will start throwing in fanservice, which isn't bad but it's nice to see something "serious" once in a while. -
We really are privilaged when people say Ranma 1\2 is the worst anime ever, because it means people have forgotten the terror of MD Geist.

Hey everyone, sorry for being possibly-out-of-line, I don't know if this is an advertisment or not because I'm not advertising a particular site\store\group, but I run a fansub\scanlation group that has over four years of experience, and I'm looking for Japanese to English translators. If you can speak or read Japanese, please email me at [COLOR="Red"][removed[/COLOR]], no techinical know-how required. I hope to hear from you soon!

It's a shame France lost, I'd hate to be the guy who missed the penalty kick.

Battle Roalye is really good, all thought Tokyopop's interpritation is pretty weird at times, like when Kawada hands the main character a gun and says "Don't go all Marvin from Pulp Fiction on me." and of course, the infamous "Go f**k a duck" line.

Horror. There's very little, but it's a very quality genre, with such heavy hitters as Ring, Ju-On, Dark Water, Tomie and Uzumaki you can't go wrong

It seems to pretty cool. Ya gotta dig the Dub Opening. Monkey Magic! Monkey Magic! Monkey Magic. Monkey Magic.

I don't dig gay marriage or homosexuality. I also think most people hate Bush just because they love bandwagoning. Music, mvoies, pretty much the entire media is saying "Oh that Bush is a moron hick" and the masses say "Yeah? YEAH! That Bush is so stupid!" I don't really care about politics, but I think anti-bush is just a big bandwagon.

I'm gonna roll with "just screaming." I don't consider any of the music I listen to "art" though.

I have problems fitting in on any anime board. Because I'm a self-prolcaimed Novice anime Historian, I live for classic (Robot) anime, and I'm a fansuber devoted to those kinds of shows. As you can imagine, after knowing so much about obscure 70's-80's robots, Classic Gundam, and legendary space operas normal anime fans don't even know about, it just kills me to see a thread where everyone is saying the Evangelions can beat Gundams in a fight, or a "Favorite Space anime" thread where everyone is posting "Outlaw Star." Which in turn transforms me to what you would typicall call a "bitter ol' man" anime fan. Infact I'm shaking my fist at the screen right now yelling "COWBOY BEBOP? SPACE ADVENTURE COBRA!" I just need a beat up truck, a rocking chair, a porch, and a shotgun.

I like to think I'm a lot like Clive from Jungle Wa Itusmo Hale Nochi Guu. An extravagant doctor guy who hits on women all the time.
-
I play classic games all the time. Mind you I'm mainly into arcade style games, and most of the games back in the day were either Side Scrollers, RPGs, or arcadey action games.

I can't stand Japanese music too much, except Guitar Wolf, Loudness, and X-Japan. I accept the fact Japanese music is just like American music with less English. Take Namie Amuro's "I can't sleep, can't eat, I'm sick," for a spin and you'll see what I mean.

I'm a Christian, I believe if we accept Jesus, we get to go to Heaven. I love it. I love the idea of not wandering around life, and at the end of every day thinking that all the things that I've experienced, felt, and thought are all moot and void in the end.

I learned how NOT to act in real life, both from anime and watching anime fans in general XD. I also learned a slight ammount of common Japanese. But bear in mind, the Japanese you learn from just watching anime won't help you too much when you start really learning the language. And of course, the same trivial stuff a lot of people mentioned, like what Takoyaki is, or to take off your shoes when entering a temple.

I stopped diggin that whole crush crap. I'm only interested in one thing. But I'l save that for the R-Rated version of this thread.

Well, you also gotta remember that after Hair Metal was "killed" a lot of people still listen to it and like it. At least, I know a lot of people who are into it XD.

Well, right now in Japan [i]Highschool Girls[/i] and [i]XXXholic[/i] are shaping up nicely, [i]NANA[/i] is getting better now that the filler\flashbacks are ending.

Anime What's your favorite anime superpower/personality/ general attribute?
Prons replied to KyuubiKhaos's topic in Otaku Central
Simple. Giant Super Robot. Ah, how I yearn for the era when anime was all aobut how much *** the main robot can kick. -
[QUOTE=doubledanger]This song is pretty cool, I was [url]http://www.napster.com/player/tracks/12806622[/url] Great song, any metal heads in the bunch? Slayers is kinda oldsckool, maybe the newer metal heads can bring me up to date. Drop me some napsterlinks of newer metal bands. Not enough anime has metal music, or maybe I'm not lookin hard enough.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I love metal. Right now I'm on a hair metal kick. Some of the bands I like: [list=1] [*]Stryper [*]Thin Lizzy [*]Motorhead [*]Poison [*]Metallica [*]Megadeth [*]Cannibal Corpse [*]Venom [*]Iced Earth [*]Judas Preist [*]Iron Maiden [*]Black Sabbath [*]Ozzy Osbourne [*]Rob Zombie [/list] Very few of it is "new," but it gives you the idea of what I'm into.

[QUOTE=Cygnus X-1][COLOR=Sienna]The lyrics don't do it justice, but IMO the prettiest song is... The Ballad of Curtis Loew by Lynyrd Skynyrd [B] Well I used to wake the morning before the rooster crowed Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough Brought 'em down to the corner, down to the country store Cash 'em in and give my money to a man named Curtis Loew Old Curt was a black man with white curly hair When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care He used to own an old dobro, used to play it across his knee I'd give old Curt my money, he'd play all day for me (Chorus) Play me a song Curtis Loew, Curtis Loew I got your drinking money, tune up your dobro People said he was useless, them people are the fools 'Cause Curtis Loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues He looked to be sixty, and maybe I was ten Mama used to whip me but I'd go see him again I'd clap my hands, stomp my feets, try to stay in time He'd play me a song or two Then take another drink of wine. Chorus Yes sir On the day old Curtis died, nobody came to pray Ol' preacher said some words, and they chunked him in the glade But he lived a lifetime playin' the black man's blues And on the day he lost his life, that's all he had to lose Play me a song Curtis Loew, Hey Curtis Loew I wish that you was here so everyone would know People said he was useless, them people all are fools 'Cause Curtis you're the finest picker to ever play the blues[/B][/COLOR][/QUOTE] Yes! Lynard Skynard is great.

[QUOTE=Avenged666fold]Has anyone but me noticed the simlarities between all this new rap garbage and hair metal? I mean basically the same thing is hapening here as in the 80's. People are coming out of the woodwork and their main goal is to get a vidieo on mtv. Then thy have "made it". But really their music is garbage and has no meaning whatsoever. There are a few less know guys who are real good(like metallica was). All thats really left is that there has to be an end to it. Just like Nirvana killed hair metal. Does anyone agree with me or si this some dumb conspiracy?[/QUOTE] Yes, and yet no. Remember, everyone these days tries to make a music video. It's good advertising. I personally don't consider hair metal garbage, infact I'd go as far to say I love a lot of hair metal. As for the end of rap, I think it's coming. You'll notice a sudden rise of crappy emo and hardcore bands. Sadly, that's our future :(
