Candy Boy GiveawayI read Dannychoo.com for the insightful information on life in Japan, as well as Danny's wonderful inspirational photo walk posts. Thanks alot for those Danny! They've really helped cheer me up and spur me onward a few times when I've felt depressed...
Good and Bad Ideas in JapanAs I commented on the Figure.fm post, I wish I could find a Burger King around here (in the Osaka area). I seriously want to try this out!
Live Action MacrossThe only Macross I've managed to see is Macross 7, though I'd love to see the others sometime. The live-action looks awesome. As for the poll, where's the Mylene love, hmm? ;)
Japan CleanlinessIt is actually suprisingly clean here in the Osaka area. Back home it's not extremely dirty, but there is alot of litter in places, especially cigarette butts in certain areas. >.<
Cycling in TokyoI have a fairly nice bike back home in the states, but no bike here in Japan. At least not yet. I've just been walking everywhere, and it's been great exercise. ;)
I may get a bike in a couple of months, but we'll have to see how things pan out.
Al...
Japan TyphoonJust sitting here in my dorm, waiting for the storm to pass over. Hoping that it won't be too bad. This is my first time experiencing a cyclone (hurricane/typhoon/etc.) So far it doesn't seem too bad, just alot of rain. Of course, I'm in a solidly bu...
Mirai GaiaThere's an issue with the profile edit functionality.
I went in to edit my location, since I'm in Japan now and will be for several months, but there is no box for the location, so I can't edit it.
Mirai GaiaI'd like to add my voice to those who have already spoken in favor of bringing back member news/stuff. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Danny's posts, but I spent a lot more time here reading and commenting on member posts. For me, this place has largely...
Sailor MoonYeah, I got them, but I dunno where they are now. ^^; I think I may have given them away to a fellow Sailor Moon fan, as I didn't really have anywhere to display them once the year was up and I needed that space on my wall for the next year's calenda...
Don't Say Lazy Live ActionIn response this that Danny stated above:
"I actually liked this and thought it was quite interesting. I dont think it would have been like the ED if they tried to be more lively - is good as it is."
I respectfully disagree. I feel they could have...
Sailor MoonAll I have to say about that room is... wow... ^^
Okay, I actually have more to say. n.n;
That's a very nice collection there, wish I had more of those plushies. n.n
Also, for those that are wondering, the "posters" on the wall in the first page a...
Sailor MoonYes, Sailor Moon's what actually got me into Anime in the first place, and still remains my favorite series to this day. (And the only one I've watched all the way through multiple times.) Sure, I watched all the DBZ eps on CN back in the day, but th...
Don't Say Lazy Live Action*facepalm* That was horrible. n.n; Seriously, they looked like they were bored or something, and would rather be doing _anything_ else. >.>; Come on girls, you seriously need to display more energy! n.n;
MacBook Pro 17"Yeah, my laptop up and died on my earlier this year. Just stopped displaying anything on the LCD or through an external monitor. I can still access files on the HD over the network, however. I really need to get it fixed.
Shopping in TokyoA few comments/questions:
1) I'm assuming "Chemist" is a word for what we'd call a "Drug Store" in the US? (Places like Walgreens or Rite Aid.)
2) As for the Gun O'clock, that ad is one of the funniest Engrish things I've seen. XD And it certainly...
Japanese RobotsWow, quite impressive! The sheer amount of coordination and programming required to get to that point is mind-boggling. ^^ That and they've managed to make the hand quite realistic as well.
Hina RobotWow, incredibly cute. Also incredibly difficult to program, I would imagine. I really admire the craftsmanship that went into not only the robot body but the control software as well.
Muscle MarchI saw this a while ago (probably on Kotaku, IIRC)... and it is just as disturbing now as it was then. n.n;;
Nrvnsqr said it's the most glorious Wiiware title he has ever seen.... I say it's the most disturbing I have ever seen. n.n;;;
Yukata and MizugiYeah, definitely yukata. As others have stated, there's plenty of mizugi, yukata's harder to come by. ;) That and I prefer the yukata's modest style. n.n
