The animes that I had a tough time controlling my emotions while watching were CLANNAD, Chobits, & ef: a tale of memories. I'm pretty sure CLANNAD: After Story will make me tear up as well =/
Great article Danny! How comfortable is your work space? I actually work out of my living room and it's the best because I spend a good part of my day in my very comfy recliner and there's always a breeze going through since I live on the top of a...
I usually buy cases for my products in order to protect it since I never know if I'll resell it in the future. I also buy cases in order to manage my gadgets (i.e. cases with a belt clip for my mp3 player, cell phone, or anything else I want to carr...
Without a doubt, my decision would have to be Chii from Chobits. I fell in love with her through the anime and manga and I would love to have her by my side all the time ^_^
2 words: The Grudge. US movie studios never do foreign films/anime/TV Shows justice. It's a shame too because I absolutely love Death Note... so much that I'll probably see the American version just to show my support for such a great story.
I'm happy to hear Japan is finally getting the iPhone. I'm sure a lot of Japanese people would adopt it. I wonder if it'll be the new 3G version or if it'll be last year's. I personally am very interested in the iPhone, but I didn't pick it up yet...
I'd have to say Nagase Minato (left). I like how the shirt looks on her and that her pantsu are down to her ankles. That's always a positive when it comes to bed time.
If that table was at a coffee shop or something where the food was going to be light, then I don't see anything wrong with it. But if it's an actual restaurant where the both of you would be eating dinner, then I think things could get kind of tight...
All time favorite has to go to the Street Fighter series. There are many great fighting games out there that deserve a mention though: Soul Calibur, Mortal Kombat (the older games, not the recent ones), Guilty Gear, Dead or Alive, and of course, my...
This looks like a great movie. I don't think there's been a superhero movie where the hero looks like a complete bum and really doesn't care about anyone by himself. I'm sure the ending will have him changing for a woman and eventually becoming a g...
I prefer pantsu IMHO. Some artists make the female genitalia look strange sometimes. Maybe it's just easier to draw pantsu than non-pantsu. The opening cinematic for ef the latter tale looks absolutely amazing. I wish I knew enough Japanese so I c...
We have a lot of snacks in the US. That's probably why we're so obese (59 million Americans weigh 30 or more pounds than what they should really weigh) Since I'm not very active, I tend to have snacks that are less in calories. We have a brand call...
I rarely see any dogs wearing clothing around here, but I have seen it in the past. Dogs wearing clothes is just plain silly. I mean, they already have their own "coats", why do we feel the need to cover them up even more. That's basically messing...
I own a Plasma, but my next HDTV purchase will be an LCD. My one huge gripe with Plasmas is the glass screen. Plasmas are best used in a space that has very little light (i.e. a home theater would be best). I have the plasma in my living room and...
Must buy bag of doll eyes. Don't know when they'll come in handy, but I live by the old "Adventure Game" rule. I pick things up, never knowing what I'll use them for. Then later on, when I find myself in the back room of a mansion fighting for my...
I actually use the extension cable because the power outlet isn't very close to where I use my macbook pro for work. Very good review Danny. You gave me a better idea who the Macbook Air is geared towards and I am happy that I did not wait for the A...
Congrats Danny. I'm one of the newcombers (starting reading in December) and one reason why I am really enjoying your site is not only do you inform us of what's currently going on and cool in Japan, but you also teach us about the culture and a cou...
Danny, I've wondered the same thing too (about governments using money for medicine rather than war). I am one the lucky few who are able to get medicaid/medicare due to my illness. My illness is at the point that if I don't have my medication, I c...
@bandit35: Thanks for the prayer. I really appreciate it. Living with Chron's really isn't fun. This past spring I had a relapse which required me to have surgery and I basically had no summer whatsoever. I stayed indoors majority of the time rec...
Hey Danny, I've been reading this site for a while, but I decided to create an account in order to chime into this discussion. First off, I'm sorry to hear about your herniated discs situation. My girlfriend has it as well and sometimes it can flare...
