What happened in Fruits Basket that was tears worthy? I feel like I’ve seen something totally different then. Yes there were sad moments I guess, but I don’t remember them being any worse than most sad character moments. Then again, the vast majority of tear-jerking moments have been generated a lot by the accompanying music [...]

Umm… actually yes. To a large degree, yes you do. It’s like defining all movies by the last five years if you only see recent anime and refusing to go any earlier because it’s ‘older.’ So yes, in order to have any perspective that is worthwhile in any conversation on the subject of Otakudom or [...]

I want to hear this conversation in real life… so badly.

Whether you believe in Santa or God or not doesn’t change that the logic is correct. You are a forgettable waste of life in comparison to the joy that said fictional characters provide others. So getting indignant about it does nothing but prove that not only are you a forgettable waste of life, but also [...]

I am extremely happy to see her given hips like that. Gorgeous.

Yo dawg, I herd you leik loli….

There may not be scientific evidence for it as a concept, but there’s also not a lot of scientific evidence for many of the naturopathic treatments for cancer that I used and they work. So I’ve learned that just because there’s no evidence in a corrupt medical field doesn’t mean jack shit. In fact in [...]

It’s only a waste of time and money if you waste your time and money. People who actually know how, but more importantly WHY they study know exactly how useful it can be. The world is full of failures because many people never take on a goal in their lives, so never apply the resources [...]

That’s kind of incorrect, Chen. I mean seriously, school studying does tend to stifle creativity, but in general it does offer some perspective on the world people wouldn’t usually get. They wouldn’t be ABLE to come up with new stuff if they didn’t understand the science behind it and get introduced to things they didn’t [...]

From what I’ve seen over the years, Sankaku’s mascot should be Slowpoke.

…did you do that on purpose?

Just want to say because of the Shining figures here, fuck the fucking fuckers who removed the voice and such from Shining Tears and fuckin’ it up and guaranteeing we’d never see the rest of the series.

Thank you and good night.

If I’m not misreading current Japanese culture, if it were two male teachers, they would be celebrities now.

…so you can not get shot twice?

>Saudi Arabia

The curve for judgement on this story shifted entirely. Insert stuff here about Arab nations having a terrible situation in general regarding life and worth that can be uselessly misconstrued as racism against Arabs.

End of line.

That’s not grammar… that’s basic spelling and vocabulary. Go figure that yet again most people who use the term ‘Grammar Nazi” don’t even understand its use in the correct context. It would be funny in its irony if it weren’t so sad. I can’t stand that people no longer call people who can’t spell or [...]

I hadn’t considered the similarity until you worded it like that, but Nami is a lot like Fujiko it seems. I don’t know if Nami followed Fujiko’s development similarly. I don’t exactly know the dynamic with Lupin because I never watched the original, but it strikes me that there are some similarities to One Piece, [...]

I may still be playing that game if I hadn’t been killed, dropped my sword, and thus was unable to play anymore…

@ Anon 18:30 You are the type of idiot that yet again makes me want to shoot someone for the sake of humanity’s growth as a species. You are actually arguing for a boy in a very poor village, where there are among hundreds of things that could help his living situation more than a [...]

Then I’m thinking of something else that was named similar enough to confuse me. Oh well. Ecchi or not, I’ll watch anything.
