Anime T-ShirtsDanny, you are able to fit in an S size? And we're talking about Japanese-standard S? Wow, I must be a giant compared to you... I find Japanese L to be rather close-fitting.
Japan Unattended BagsCanada is a rather large country... in smaller cities it's not uncommon to see careless individuals leaving their bags unattended but in larger cities you're just asking for a bag of poo.
A friend came back from touring France recently and tells me...
Eroge Websites BlockedAm I the only one wondering the obvious?
If it's a UK court that has decided something is morally objectionable, why is it that the source, a Japanese company blocking the international audience?
Wouldn't it make more sense for the UK to filter con...
11 Year Old College GraduateYup, I was going to post the exact same (but there're so many comments I thought I should take a look first). I think coming out and saying what does and does not help humanity is rather short-sighted. And somebody in another comment also said: naive...
11 Year Old College GraduateDoogie Howser played video games tho. In fact I remember an episode where he meets another kid genius who doesn't know how to have fun. :p
Air GunThanks for clearing that up for me - I've always wondered because I've heard that in the US, you can't carry a CONCEALED weapon, so I always wondered if you could carry one openly.
The funny thing is, the "right to bear arms" is a law that came abou...
Air GunThat's right, I've been witness to a BB-gun related accident and the guy had to go to the hospital to have the pellet removed. It went so deep into his arm that it almost broke the bone. And that was just one pump of a pump-action BB-gun, but it was...
Japanese BanksI'm Canadian and the very few experiences I have had handling US currency... yes, I find it actually SMELLS bad! It seems like the life cycle of currency is VERY long resulting in a lot of grimy dirty bills.
A tip for you younger DC members: get a c...
Best Ever Bootleg FiguresSpider-Man is the odd man out: he's the only guy with super-human powers. The others are 1 really smart dude and all-around good fighter, 1 ninja, and one guy in a super-suit! :D
Evangelion WatchWouldn't be the first time I would wear an outlandish bulky and overpriced time-piece... I wore an Oakley Detonator for several years (still have it but just got bored of it). This watch is just a tad too colourful... Perhaps if it were one of the pr...
Te Maki ZushiA) I eat at the computer too often (because my current primary is a notebook; it's also positioned at a kitchen table so that I also have a view of the television in the next room). :)
B) I'm not a big fan of hand-roll - I find the proportion of sea...
Shift Happens - Did You KnowFear not - don't let the video mislead you. It's important to understand that despite the fact that information is indeed increasing, it simply means the information you study will not cover as much new information is being generated. That is: you wi...
Cup NoodleMy folks used to buy Nissin Cup Noodles by the case (because often my brother and I would arrive home at different hours and it was perfect for instant dinner). But I haven't had one in years. This machine is awesome - I hope there's also an indicato...
Tax Payableit's a lot of luck of the draw with the customs agent who takes your package into the country. I've had been relatively lucky and haven't been taxed nearly as often as I should. A lot of times it was a shipper from Hong Kong who'd mark "gift" and som...
Love Lettersnever received any except those generic valentine's greetings that EVERYONE in your class received. Sent a few love letters (and been laughed at in return) later in life.
What's Your Ideal Age...I've always had a thing for women in lab-coats so Ritsuko does it for me. Also, back then when Evangelion came out, she had that older-woman thing going... who knew that some day we'd be the same age... and eventually she'd be younger than me! I gues...
Hentai AnimeDiscipline was just plain weird... but alright. It became totally surreal when the gang go paramilitary... :)
But yeah, Bible Black is also one of my all-time faves. Not for it's weirdness (actually, that was just disturbing, some of the stuff that...
Are Anime DVDs Worth ItI've always wondered in the past about how expensive in Japan DVDs were relative to say... I don't know... cups of coffee. Granted everything in Japan is expensive (relative to North America, let's say). A while back I had become totallye enamored wi...
Ryouko AsakuraI have all of them so far (except Kyon's Sister, who makes me feel somewhat uncomfortable). I really like Tsuraya-san at the moment. Haruhi comes a close second. I'm really looking forward to Ryoko - her pose is freaking hot. Just goes to show the cr...
Anime GirlsI'm shocked that you are the only person to mention Ranma 1/2 - I mean come people of DC.com!!! Okay, they were each a little crazy, but that's just because they were passionate. And passionate girls are awesome!
Worst AnimeBastad!! - I know this was a manga classic but the anime was nowhere near as entertaining as my friends who recommended it promised it would be.
Queen Emeraldas - any anime that doesn't have an ending sucks! :)
Kannon - not so much that it sucks, b...
Otaku ParentsMy parents, like any immigrant Chinese to Canada in the previous century, view anything that is not back-breaking labour as a luxury that you DO NOT DESERVE.
They absolutely cannot stand my anime/manga/mecha/gals-figure hobby.
Your First AnimeI suspect Danny and I are about the same age now... I also grew up on a diet of "Battle of the Planets" and UFO Robot Grendizer (in particular, the part of Canada I lived in, the French edits as well). And perhaps Cantonese dub of Doraemon (we called...
Your First GundamMy first "Gundam" would have been a knock-off Transformer which stole the Gundam name... found at Woolworths (in Canada they were called Woolco stores; they don't exist here anymore). I believe it was Frenzy and Lazerbeak knock-offs.
My first authen...
Your Anime CrushThe members of Bokuto precinct in Tokyo - being Natsumi and Myuki! But since Taiho-Shichauzo!! is an older anime it's tough to collect any stuffs. So I will name Tohsaka Rin as my current favourite "must collect stuff" character.
