Danny Yet more thanks for the link. My japanese cooking has become rather repetitive. This site will shake things up for me. ( View formatted comment » )

I have one of those umbrellas. Bought in Akiba last October. Thing is, I am tall & English and it looks ridiculously small when I use it. Good for comedy value though ^_^ ( View formatted comment » )

Best/Worst Joke of the day ^_^ ( View formatted comment » )

Soo many cute girls. Ennie Meenie Miny Moe eer the middle one please. http://www2.moeyo.com/img/08/05/05/3/301.html When I have been in Japan I have seen astonishingly, jaw droppingly beautiful women at least twice a day. Is it any wonder I want to live there. ( View formatted comment » )

Danny, all the best. I'm sure it will be fine. BTW I have just had a look at the PDF for Trend day. Weird cover!! Anyhoo, Heights scare me silly. For instance a few years ago I was visiting relatives in Toronto & went up the CN tower. They have a transparent section in the floor and I could NOT step on it. Intellectually I knew it was perfectly safe. After all other people were jumping up & down on it. But I just could NOT put my weight on it. On the other hand flying doesnt bother me at all.

I love Crunky. I bought some of that & some Panky back from my last visit. My real weakness though is Salad flavoured Pretz. Was in London yesterday & popped into the Japan Centre to restock with Calpis Water, Pocari Sweat & Pretz. ( View formatted comment » )

Saw a London bus in Shinjuku last October. That one was labelled up as a Fuji tv drama bus and was full of publicity for some shows. I'd post a link to my pic but I didnt bother uploading it to Flickr it was that dull ^_^ ( View formatted comment » )

I thought that the anime ended with the opening festival for their last year at high school thus leaving tiime for a second series. Although I wouldnt expect it till after Haruhi series 2 ( View formatted comment » )

What I think is most likely is a crackdown to stop Ms Wide Open & other such troublemakers and then a slow (unannounced) relaxation so that normal cosplayers would be tolerated. I cant see cosplay being "banned" as it helps to draw so many people. Why else would so many people go there on a Sunday. ( View formatted comment » )

I know I am in a minority here but while Mirai chan looks very cute as usual. I would have preferred a slighty more subtle pantsu shot. Still looking forward to seeing the coloured version and finding out what this mysteious "product" is though. ( View formatted comment » )

Re Vista SP1. Well its been nice knowing you ^_^ I upgraded two machines from Vista to XP last weekend and they run sooo much better. ( View formatted comment » )

On my first trip in 2005 I got dry lips & bought the "expensive" mentholatum. Best purchse of my visit. In fact I have Just got whats left of it out of my work bag to check the brand ^_^ ( View formatted comment » )

Ooh didnt realise about the fuigana. I may even try to read this in the original. You know Reading practice ^^ ( View formatted comment » )

Downloaded a fansub once. Got all excited but the subs were Spanish ;_; Must get round to buying it. ( View formatted comment » )

The article mentioned that this was in conjunction with a flashing light and seemed to be effective. I'm sure they used wasabi to give the feeling that your face is ON FIRE ^^ ( View formatted comment » )

Danny. I realise tha tab action was being remembered. It just seemed a bit weird that it did so when I clicked a link to read the rest of an article. Keep up the good work. Yours is one of the few sites I visit multiple times a day. ( View formatted comment » )

Danny. Just came back & loading was much faster due to my cache. One thing confused me & bear with me on this. I was at this article & clicked on the Anime tab. From there I clicked on a story on the left bar (the boots one). Then I clicked on Mirai chan to get back to the front page. So far so good, but when I clicked on the link to "Read the rest" of this topic I got the Anime tab back. I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.12 on xp ( View formatted comment » )

Danny You made Mirai chan's picture smaller (fume) :) Seriously though load time did seem to increase but that just be because I normally have most of the site in my cache. ( View formatted comment » )

Yay. Masked Maid Guy. That looks to play my love of all things stupid :) I really must get round to watching the rest of Code Geass Season 1 somewhen. ( View formatted comment » )

Looks like someone has seen the gherkin in London. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30_St_Mary_Axe Designed by Norman Foster. Its not a school tho. ( View formatted comment » )

I voted neither. But of the two would rather live in Osaka than Tokyo. There just seems to be something about capital cities I dont like. Of course If someone were to offer me the chance to move to Tokyo now I'd go ^_^ ( View formatted comment » )

Danny: Oh I see, its just ME it hates (^_^) ( View formatted comment » )

Leo I'm using firefox & the second link just crashes the browser :( ( View formatted comment » )

Happy New Year to All. I found the site while trying to find someone who imports figures to the uk at a reasonable price. I now visit every morning & check again when I get home from work. P.s. still havent found a good importer. ( View formatted comment » )
