[COLOR="DarkOrange"]T_T I typed a big post in the [B]Utena[/B] thread about having finished the first season of Utena, and the internet died. Only to come back 3 minutes later. That was cruel... Anway, I finished the first season of Utena... T_T[/COLOR]

[quote name='Vicky'][SIZE=1]Tresemme all the way. That stuff is gold. It smalls professional and when it rains, my hair smells AWESOME. Also, they have the freeze hold spray. I had my mohawk up for three days with it and it was raining an awful lot. It just didn't fall down and my hair smelt whack (in a good way) too. Tresemme is the way to go. [/SIZE][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Having just taken a shower (on one leg - NOT an easy task!!!) I decided to see exactly which kind I was using. It was simply 'deep clensing for all hair types.' The shampoo contained vitamin C and the conditioner had some kind of complicated pro-vitamin that I've never heard of. All I know is it makes my hair easy as hel to brush.[/COLOR]

[quote name='spy46']so to you its just soap and shampoo, there is nothing that makes it special so long as it works right?[/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Well, my mom buys some specific kind of shampoo and conditioner for me. It's like for greay thick hair I guess... I don't remember the specific title, but I tried out all different kinds to find the one that's best for my hair. So, in that respect, it does matter, but I'm not the one who's paying attention to it. Whatever it is, girls must like it, cuz all my female friends are always telling me how good my hair smells. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Hm. When it comes to body wash, I use whatevers in the shower. Wether that be [B]Irish Spring[/B] or [B]Axe[/B] or what-have-you, it picks itself, I don't pick it. As far as I'm concerned, it resupplies itself magically. Same goes for my shampoo and conditioner, though I am much more concience of the brand. I believe I've been using [B]Tresseme[/B] or something like that... I have to use a lot of shampoo and conditioner cuz I have long, crazy, thick hair.[/COLOR]

[quote name='indifference'][COLOR="Indigo"]Well I'm fine with that, though I am curious what that means about Esper Jam being connected with Shinigami Dance. I assume that since GuyYouMetOnline is taking over that the connection you spoke of will no longer be there? After all you did say that things that happen in one will affect the world of the other DB. Though if there isn't a connection anymore, that's fine too. I'll still be around for both.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Well, one can't be sure. I was planning to establsh the connection at the end of both games' current arc, but there was no real plan for what it would be. ^^;; Push ahead blindly really is a pretty stupid method... thankfully SD is more planned out...[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]As an American, I probably have no right to talk about culture. But I think that wether or not one has their culture is in the eye of the accusor. Some people say you o, some say you don't, there's no concrete answer or line drawn between 'cultured' and 'not cultured'. Sorry if someone else already said that, I didn't read it >_>[/COLOR]

[quote name='Aceburner']Umm... "Experienced?" Nevermind, I'm talking about you AND DB here. I don't wanna open that can of worms. On topic, I have to agree that she was probably yankin' your chain, but I suppose it's possible. Then again, I can't really imagine anyone thinking someone doesn't know of Crispin Freeman.[/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Not everyone specializes in voice actors, especially english ones... I had never heard of Crispin Freeman until he did Kyon (and then he became important!) We haven't noted the possibility that she fanatically researches/stalks voice actors and that in her mind she actually knows them. [/COLOR]

[quote name='Clurr'][FONT="Arial"]Er, I'm pretty sure "InuYasha's voice actor...some guy named Vic..." was Dragonmanm2 listing the actors he remembered seeing at the convention. I don't think he meant they were the same person.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]:animeknow Awesome deduction! This changes things entirely. Well, actually, it just makes it more confusing. Now it just seems like she knew who he was talking about... yeah, I'm calling this definite con...[/COLOR]

[quote name='GreenDemon'][SIZE="2"][COLOR="YellowGreen"][FONT="Arial"]I think that weakens her case DB, she may know who the person is but I dont think she watchs much Inuyasha. Sometimes liars emprovise in ways to make it sound like they know what the subject is even though she dosent (not that she may know Vic, but she dosent know inuyasha much). But in some ways she just might of been mistakened because Dragonmanm2 did say: So he was already leading her in the wrong direction.[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]That's what I mean. On the one hand, she might just know Vic and heard him saying vic and just didn't know Inuyasha's VO. But on the other hand, she might've just knew who he was talking about and ignored his misconception about who he played. Hm... the plot thickens....[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]I'm assuming you mean DVDs? Because my collection is rather large to be listing, and it's not like all of them are complete (most aren't) I'm not going to list them here. There is a link in my sig to my collection, if you want to see it. Since you didn't provide much topic for discussion, I figure I'll fill in. I love buying DVDs, as they look pretty on my shelf. I have pride in my collection, and I just love staring at it in all it's awesomeness. I don't really buy DVDs just so I can see the shows/see them over and over, because I could easily wach most of it online, and because I rewatch things very rarely (the curse of photographic memory!) but still, I like having them. I get a thrill from buying them. And I've got little better to blow my money on. When it comes to buying DVDs, I always buy the artbox when possible. It's my collectors instinct. My motto is 'if theres a special edition, buy it.' Unfortuanetally, due to my habit of buying too many shows at once, I have very few boxes that are actuall full. I only buy thinpacks when it is A. a show I'm not sure about or B. so much cheaper I'd be a fool not to. And I don't care as much about the show. My favorite artbox is either [B]Haruhi[/B] or [B]Mushishi[/B], and my favorite individual purchases are anything with a lot of episodes. I also love my [B]Generator Gawl[/B] DVDs simply because of the story behind them - that being that I bought all 3 (of four) a year apart and always under 10 bucks having found them completely by chance.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Just recently saw [B]Millenium Actress[/B] which is absolutely brilliant, as you may know. I've also decided to check out [B]Martian Successor Nadesico[/B], since it seems to be highly popular. The show i'm most paying attention to is [B]Revolutionary Girl Utena[/B]. I love it so far - it's really got pretty much everything I look for in a show. It'll probably take me 3 eternities to finish the damn thing, though >_> Anyway, you can se all that stuff more in-depth over at meh blog... A show I picked up today on recommendation of a trusted opinion is [B]Neo-Ranga[/B], which is awesome. I only reached episode 7 because that's as many as I could illegally find, but it's a pretty damn cool show so far that really gets you hooked quickly. It's a combination of so many genres - family drama, comedy, political, mecha, kaiju, and all blended into every 15-minute episode. It's more than a little spastic, but well-paced and always fun. The show never screws around - it's always right to-the-point and it uses an interesting method of not usually starting an episode in the same place as the last one ended. If you wanna check it out, I'm told the thinpack is only 20 bucks at rightstuff...[/COLOR]

[quote name='Panda']Um, Richard Cox is the voice of Inu Yasha.[/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]I did think it was odd that he mentioned it as Vic, heh. Especially since Vic is one of my favorite English VOs (Edward Elric and Yukito from Air - boh spectacular performances) and I can't stand Inuyasha's voice... I can't decide if that strengthens or weakens her case...[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Um... eh? This is a topic? Anyway, she was proabl conning you. I bet she's a huge anime fan who knows how to trick people into thinking she knows voice actors. That or she's a voice actor too and she worked with them or something... or maybe she makes a habit of sleeping with voice actors? Possibly imagining them as the character?[/COLOR]

[quote name='indifference'][COLOR="Indigo"]This will be rather ironic if that does happen. I'll go from having the huge long bit about myOtaku and guestbook and such to having this huge bit instead: Category Moderator of Entertainment I can't win. lol Though truth be known, I like both. Heh.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Lulz, I'd pay to have that line under my name XD Also, quick question, does the canging of the lines have anything to do with the fact that the little grey/blue box beside the names has sunken?[/COLOR]

[COLOR="Magenta"]If he is willing to accept, I am offering the position of host to GuyYouMetOnline. I actually haven't even read the last 4 posts in the main thread, and I've sort of got no real plans for the future of the rp. Seeing as how he takes it more seriously and knows how to manage it well, I want to give creative control over to GuyYouMetOnline since I am confident that he can continue to make the rp fun and keep it moving. I will continue to participate as a player, but not control the game.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]long as we're cutting down, you could probably remove the word 'Last' as well. [/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkOrange"][B]Chocolate Rain[/B] by [B]Tay Zonday[/B]. Beautiful voice, intelligent lyrics. Linked. [url=http://youtube.com/watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA]Chocolate Rain[/url][/COLOR]

[quote name='Premonition'][COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]So, let's see some more DB! Don't deprive us of reading.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Ah, someone finally replied! Well, let me explain what happened. You see, I had already written a good amount of the next chapter, and it was absolutely fantastic. Then a power outtage delete dthe whole thing since the mac has no damn failsafe for notepad documents. I was furious, naturally. I hate writing the same thing twice, so I want to do something totally differen, but I don't even remotely feel inspired about this story anymore. As you can see, I even removed it from my sig. I'll compenste with something different, don't worry.[/COLOR]

[COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]:devil: XD Yes, my intent is simultaneously very innocent and very sinister with this latest post. If anything, this is a prelude to what can only become a monster conflict. Also, [B]Aeru[/B] and [B]Neviril[/B] are related names. It's too bad ya'll don't listen to most of my anime recommendations or you'd see what I'm trying to do here :p Oh, and I'm fully aware that the 'clicky' leads nowhere. Photobucket is apparently down, so I can't upload the image. EDIT: FIXED[/COLOR]

Young Neviril had become bored. She sighed heavily. This was antagonizing. "If the shinigami is as skilled as she ought to be, it won't take her an especially long time to escape the time-space rift. If she's to escape, you'll have to conjure a new rift to trap her in..." Under the allure of The Count's gaze, Neviril had a hard time refusing anything he said, but she regretted agreeing to being the guard. No one had even offered to help her or come to visit her. Jerks, she thought. So here she was, sitting on a bed in an empty room. The rift was in the center of the room, though it wasn't visible or anything. I wonder what she looks like... The Count assured her that she was dangerous and that's why they had to keep her in the void rather than be hospitable in any fashion. Neviril imagined that it was a tall woman with black hair and cloaked in an evil robe. She wielded a massive scythe on a long wooden shaft and laughed devilishly as she swung it in a long arc. She's sexy but cunning! Her imaginations had become assumptions. Just then there was a sudden slicing noise. Instantly alert, Neviril jumped up and took a fighting stance. Sure enough, the tip of a black blade was poking out of thin air in the center of the room. Neviril watched in shock as the blade slowly but cleanly carved through the air. It's path through the air was marked with a long red cut from which blood began to seep. Finally the scythe tucked back in while the blood continued to poor and fall to the ground. A pair of hands peeked out of the sliver and grabbed onto each side. They pulled the hole wide open. ...Out stepped a young girl dressed in pure white, now covered in red stains of blood. As she stepped out onto the wooden floor, her free hand wiped the spots of blood from her face. In her other hand was a black scythe. She's not even close to what I imagined... Neviril completely forgot that she was supposed to immediately knock her out. Even so... The young shinigami turned to the petite vampire girl. Her eyes studied the girl up and down. Girl "Excuse me," Aeru asked. Neviril snapped out of her trance. Crap! What do I do?! "Um... miss?" "I-it's Neviril!" Why am I giving my name?! "Do you know where my friend Joe is? He's a black cat with wings on his back. Have you seen him?" "U-uhm..." Crap, crap, crap! It's not supposed to go like this! "I guess I'll just have to find him..." "N-no! Wait! I know where he is. I'll take you to him!" Right. No harm in that, right? After all she hasn't attacked me yet... Neviril was about to panic. "Ah, thank you miss Neviril! I'll let you lead the way." Moments later Neviril found herself guiding the young shinigami about the manor in which she lived. It was a very fancy and extravagant home, though it was so dark all over that a regular human wouldn't be able to see their hand in front of their face. I guess she has eyes just like ours, Neviril thought. As the pair reached a certain door, Neviril announced, "he's right in here." She opened the door and was suddenly hit in the chest so hard she stumbled backward. Ack! "That's what you get for locking me up!" Joe yelled. He had head-butted the poor girl at top speed. "Joe!" Aeru called in alarm. "Eh? Oh, Aeru, you're here. I was just about to come save you." "It looks like I'm the one who saved you instead." "Yeah, I guess you're right. But why are you with that vampire girl?" As he asked this, said vampire girl was rising to her feet with a none-too-pleased expression. "Ah, right. Joe, this is Neviril. Neviril, Joe. She helped me find you." "Really? But you know, Aeru, she's totally eeeeeevil!" "Why you little!" Neviril grabbed onto the cat's wings and tugged on them. Enraged and underestimated, Joe head-butted the girl in the face. The girl fell over backward, releasing his wings. Aeru giggled. "Don't be silly, Joe. She wouldn't have helped me find you if she was evil." "But she's a vampire! And besides, these guys are the ones who captured us and brought us here! Weren't you just trapped for 13 hours in no-space?!" "It wasn't Neviril who trapped me though," she turned to the once-more arising young vampire, "right Neviril?" "Uh-" she blushed, "r-right." "See? If anything, Neviril is our friend for helping me save you." Neviril blushed harder. "I still don't trust her," Joe muttered, turning away. Aeru just smiled on. "That's alright. Miss Neviril, if you don't mind, do you have anything I can change into? I managed to get my dress all covered in blood." "Ah, I was meaning to ask about that," Joe interrupted. "Oh, uh-of course! Just follow me..." I'm leading her to my room?! This isn't what I expected at all... but that's a good thing, right? Neviril continued leading the pair to her room.

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]Hey, they're just little kids for the most part. I don't expet they'd be great fighters :p the bonde woman is probably something else, though... Oi. I already know my next post, and yours is an absolutely [i]perfect[/i] lead-in to it, so I'm glad for the violence. I think it'll be cruelly enjoyable.[/COLOR]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]Apparently I was posting when you made this comment. I see what you're saying, and I share the opinion in general. Lack of detail is what made Bebop appeal to me so much ? well, that and the music. But what I was driving at earlier is that we can have drama without having immediate bloodshed. Timewise in the story, we're only something like two days in, maybe three. Maybe. It doesn't really make sense to have multiple skirmishes occurring just after a kidnapping of this nature, especially given the infancy of the RP. There's a plethora of other things we could throw in just now that don't necessarily focus on the [B]picayune[/B] (poke @ [COLOR="DarkRed"]SunfallE[/COLOR]): drama between shinigami; miscellaneous footwork; group brain-pickings; solo tracking work. You see what I mean? I'll admit I'm eager for some combat as well. It's why I tossed in that ridiculous car crash thingummy ? self-fan service, if you will. I just tend to shy away from gratuitousness, is all, so I'm a little leery of vamp-killing this early in the story. 'Course, Nathan can't control his counterparts' actions....[/FONT][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]I know what you mean, and I wasn't really talking about combat. I just meant more drama and stuff and less flying around peeking at shadows. If a battle suits you, go ahead, but the other stuff should be interesting too. I agree about [B]Bebop[/B]. It's also why I loved [B]Shadow of the Colossus[/B].[/COLOR]

[quote name='SunfallE'][COLOR="goldenrod"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Besides, figuring out how to kill a vampire with an [E] rating takes planning. lol That and I don't want to rush the chapter too much. lol [/FONT][/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]One thing I dislike about many of the anime I see or games I play is that there is so much time spent explaining things or meandering about when none of it will matter once the heads start rolling. Now, I don't really watch action shows, as I'm a fan of characterization. As such, I've never really liked fantasy or sci-fi stories because they spend so much time specifying every little thing about the world they live in. As a matter of fact, that's something I left very ambiguous in this rp. I've never realy said what time this story takes place in - it looks pretty modern, but then it could also be in the future. I also never really specified countries or even if this takes place on Earth. I'm not trying to direct or rush by saying this, nor am I criticizing the way anyone works. This is just my way of saying, don't be afraid of skipping the details and going strait to the drama. I can't wait to see this thing explode into some real action.[/COLOR]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]And nothing like she is now, I surmise. (Having an extremely limited budget pretty much confines me to [as] airings; consequently, most of my current knowledge of anime is either Wiki or hearsay.) Yeah, I see the fun-poking happening for quite some time to come. I still think somebody needs to be French.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]monsieur, Lunar is an RPG series. A popular one, too. Been around since, like, the SNES or something.[/COLOR]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]See, I wasn't entirely aware that Meredith came from Lunar. Actually, I wasn't aware of that at all. [/FONT][/QUOTE] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]:animeswea erm... i must've mised that cameo... I didn't see meredith...[/COLOR]
