So Danny, are you judging just by the initial pic, or are you going off of all pictures linked in each post? I got tired of trying to stitch in vain (they kept coming out as giant filesizes or looked horrible) so I just made a video, updated it in my...
It's actually pretty weird, he only has interest in 2D girls, yet I read pretty much that exact murder plot in a book about a fat american sociopath in Tokyo, by Ryu Murakami.
I have the exact same situation, we're both way too nice and end up having to "insist" one in three times to pay or else she'd pay all the time. Her number one rationalization is always "But you drove!" and I always reply with, "Yes, but I didn't was...
The one around me gets melonpan, anpan, choco coronets and other stuff from a Chicago-based Japanese bakery like 3 times a week. It's weird because I used to think maybe it was just Engrish on the wrapper, until I investigated online one day, and a b...
Hey Danny, I always meant to ask, and you'd be in the know more than most people, are there any delicatessens in Tokyo? It's hard to imagine that cold cuts and cheese would be in the Japanese diet, but 2 out of the 3 girls that my cousin hosted a few...
lol, gee I really hadn't guessed that by being able to purchase four of one figure. If you do things like that, you're rich, have OCD or serious priority issues, and I tend to guess the nicest option unless I know the person in, uh, person.
I don't get duplicates for the simple fact that anytime I look at figure number 2, I think: "Wow, I could've bought something else for the amount of money I paid for this!" Especially with those Limit Gunz ones, they're like what, $80 a piece?
At my last job, I remember having a conversation at length with a coworker about how she couldn't even make it through a half hour episode of a TV program without wandering away(South Park, I believe it was). I think as life puts more demands on you,...
I was all geeked last year whenever I came around to buying a 360 and I ended up buying around 9-10 games in a period of a few weeks afterward. I played maybe 6-7 hours total? And while I feel like the consummate old man agreeing with this statement,...
*pats you on the back* Stick with that boredom, that game is a soul-stealer. I'm on the other side of a sum of about 3 years and I regret every second of that time-hole. Video games, anime, and manga are things that I will always look fondly upon bec...
Ditto that, except it was FFVI (3, then) on the SNES and Chrono Trigger and their ilk, back then. I remember poring over a game for weeks on end, now those games I can blow through in like 3-4 sittings.
I really tend to agree about the being delusional part of your argument. Case in point: I was all psyched to replay Chrono Trigger on the DS whenever it came out last year, and it WAS just how I remembered it, but "good old days" really didn't descri...
Yeah you're not alone. I enjoy games, but not like I used to. I think it's just being burnt out from years and years of playing when I was younger, everything just seems the same regarding gameplay, with a shinier "veneer" now.
Yeah the Asian one on the right is a little too, um, granny-tranny-tastic if you ask me. And, "Our maids don't call customers 'master' and the girls are sweet rather than flirty,"? Puh-lease. That's just one reason why a maid-kissa would never work s...
So very jealous, that looks fantastic! Our Asian places around here really don't know how to cook at all. They use way too much dark meat in their chicken dishes and one place in particular doesn't cook their veggie enough to the point where you have...
AHHHHHH HAAAAAAA, someone else puts posters on the ceiling! Very happy at this revelation. That's why my location is displayed as Ota-cube, due to the posters on the ceiling, my living space IS an Otaku cube, or Ota-cube. ^^;
I think that interest in almost all subcategories of otaku culture lend themselves to being interested in Japanese culture as well. It's like a gateway to something greater. I've loved Japan and Japanese culture ever since I was a child, and I don't...
"DC is the first thing I load when the computer turns on, and basically everything here is interesting to read, and everyones friendly, what more could I ask for? (apart from a job working for Danny)" Haha a shameless -- albeit wonderful -- plug ^^;
It's that, plus the whole Japan/expat blogosphere is very interesting to me. There's a really eclectic mix of people that have emigrated to Japan, and it's fun reading about their experiences and adventures.
I really can't remember what I was looking for, but I found DC.com like early to mid 2007. This was around the time I really started to heavily collect figures, so I was probably looking for pics or reviews, or something that I was really trying to t...
I think pretty much the same thing, if for no other reason than the fact that it's an airplane. I think if a flying car of any sort is to be viable for the public, it'd have to function like a helicopter and be able to stop midair or land on a dime a...
Finally someone made a comment like this. People drive like idiots to begin with in a lot of places here (east coast, "glad" to see west coast is like that too), I cannot see how adding mid-air collisions into the mix would do any good. Granted it mi...
The whole space looks Ikeatastic, and I'm envious of most stuff that I don't actually have, but the Kamen Rider/tokusatsu stuff doesn't interest me one bit. Other than that, urayamashii na~!
