Your Definition of DC.Com

It's a "Slice of life" site. There's a good mix of information, community and overall fun.

Ecchi... j/k dude. ^^; I'll write somethin up after the move, but I'm sure you'll have plenty of contributions by then. Have a good time at Uchimizu.

Japanophile/Otaku Site? ^_^

To me its a a community that shares an interest in a culture thats not their own. Ranging from food, living, and entertainment.

An expanding network and community with insider information on Japan Otaku culture and beyond...

and Danny is secretly making a special "Panchira Shots Weekly" section for me. Oh crap I wasn't suppose to say that yet. I kid I Kid. lol. ^^;

As a non Japanese individual, I rely on Danny Choo to show me what is up and coming within Japan itself, and the members help me broaden my knowledge about various aspects in addition to dannys articles.

the grey in the header, looks rather bland....

and yes, i agree with the guy its a 'slice of life' website

anyhow, something out of context, is there an option to be notified via email or something like that, when someone replies to your comment?

otakchu haven

:P

DC to me is an "Japanese entertainment, cultural, news, user populated information website".
In an broad view of course.

The new look of the site is really good looking, looking forward it Danny.

"Hey, you ever hear of this guy Danny Choo?"
"No."
"He lives in Japan and he's into figures and anime. He dresses up as a stormtrooper and chicks dig him."
"What types of chicks? Damn, I want to dress up as a stormtrooper."
"Check out www.dannychoo.com"

That's how I described it to a friend a long time ago. Basically, a guide on how to win in life.

i still like the current one better, but i guess i'm not used to the new one.

looks way too simple, which isn't bad.

Its a place where people around the world gather to share anything related to Japanese Culture like Cosplay, Figures and etc..

Now, I wonder what does the "Secret Menu" contains? XD

The site is both figma and Japanese culture. But i read mostly for the Japan part. Hey i noticed that figma.fm lets you save your password. But DC does not? How come?? Im using FF3 BTW.

So Danny, you also find hard to describe the blog in a few lines?
I dunno if I give a suggestion... because I just can't find a one liner for my blog too.
I'd say "Otaku material according to a stormtrooper"... or "Japanese culture, musings and stuff, Akiba way".
I'm not good at this. My blog has "Figures, videos, games..." couldn't find a better description. :P

"Hey buddy, you should check out www.dannychoo.com; it's this weird website about all things Japan, with a lot of stuff about the country and some other stuff you might be into if you like certain otaku things like manga, statues, etc."

I would describe dannychoo.com as a site about living in Japan and general otaku sub-culture, with an extra helping of figures and (I don't want to say "self-help" articles, but something like it) on the side. :p

the new layout looks great

I come to DannyChoo.com to learn about what it's really like [to live] in Japan and to find out what new and awesome figures and animé are being released. There is a real sense of community, here, and I think I like that most of all.

E^D

An active Community that shares Interest in Life in Japan,Otaku Stuff and of course Health Care^^

a non stand-alone community catered towards Otaku-ness or Becomings of Otakus or simply for people fascinated by the best randomness Japan has to offer.
DC.com = nutrient for the otaku well-being ? haha i don't know

The biggest? and best site for everything Japan and otaku

Awesome.

Always has been about the figures to me, but the extra on the side for news of Japan is good too.

I always found DC.com to be an "otaku everything" site.

Hmmm I would describe it like."It's everything you would wish for in a website. Girls,Cosplay , Maids Games, Figures, and Everything. It is like almost visiting Japan, but on online."

DC.com is what Danny finds to be fun and decided to share it around with the others.

One time, I introduced one of my friends to dannychoo.com. He plans to go to Japan next year and so I told him he will get many great info about Japan from the site. He also buys eroge magazine so I told him it will be killing two birds with one stone by visiting dannychoo.com~

To my eyes, this site is a great site to get current info on Japan, Akiba, figures but those occasional posts of Danny sharing his passion and experiences are priceless :)

Well, everyone has been pretty much saying the same thing and I agree with them whole-heartedly (a bunch of everything relating to Japan and otaku subculture, with extra emphasis on 2d girls/figures).

What I have to add though is that everyone here is remarkably..."nice", for lack of a better word at the moment. It's not something you'd put into a formal definition, but to me it's always been rather amazing and distinct how there's hardly any conflict and insults, despite nearly non-existent moderating.

Mix between Japanese pop culture/Otaku forum in a way. Also recently a Japanese news site with you reporting on all the stabbing events.

Hmm, maybe an otaku/hobby culture site? :D

" You can't just read or see it, you gotta be it! Join DC.com now!"
LOL sounds like propaganda...

"Danny Choo.com is a portal for the Otaku-minded, a center hub for figures, gundam, games, life, and anything related to Japan".

Indeed all is appreciated ^^. Good luck and god speed!

dannychoo.com? I would say, its my home in the internet^^ Like the new design alot.

New layout looks excellent. I look forward to seeing how it can be customized.

The simplest description that comes to mind for this site is "otaku blog." Of course, that leaves out the variety of the content, and the added aspect of member contributions, but as far as categorization goes, that's the cleanest way to cinch it.

Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

Hmm...a guess insight into life in Japan? Personally, I just skim through the figure reviews and such. I'm more interested in your 'Week in Tokyo' series, or just stuff about life in Japan in general. Though, figure reviews/previews aren't bad at all, either.

Though, I've started using it as inspiration. Whenever I get pissed off at my Japanese studies, I come read a few articles about Tokyo, and get right back on the horse.

Hmm.. kind of an otaku version of interesting news and views for me really. It's also a really great community from my point of view.

I'd say something along the lines of "my safe haven on the intarwebz", like a place where I can go and talk about everything related to an otaku lifestyle :3

Looking good!

i would describe dannychoo.com to be an otaku informant site. it has information that encompasses the otaku culture and the daily life of one :)
and just one thing when i first noticed when i saw the new design, it looks similar to the apple page...is that what your going for?

VOOH~ Virtual-Online-Otaku-Heaven. *w*''

puh... when at Japan day i got to talk with some people about dc.com ... introduced the site due my figmas as figure and otaku site but did mention the japan articles and help sites for moving there as well, also i didn't forget to mention the great community it has...
In a roundup it was quiet a bit of chatter about the site, a single word or definition is not enough for that your site has become nowdays... or we invent a new one like Chun seems to have already a bit lol, i like that one. ^^v

A site you have to visit everyday. Part of day site

dannychoo.com is japan for the gaijin :)

To make your dolphin go crazy everyday.

Hmm the space on the right seems a bit big for just Mirai-chan. How about a pic with both Mirai-chan and her sister together!

Thanks for the feedback so far ^^

danny choo - the guy you wanna be like
dannychoo.com - the handbook from the guy you wanna be like

Definetely both. My 2 cents for a tagline: "DC.com - Life in Japan, figures, anime and more"

Glorified blog? Is how I see the site. Based on Otaku and Japanese culture.

Anyway, as Fumika said the space seems a little small for just Mirai-chan on her own, but the other thing that has been bugging me is the plain coloured non-gradient grey background she's in. Just not dynamic enough and doesn't seem to fit the feel of DC in my opinion. Personal opinion though.

i would say this to him : DC.com is a site chronicling the experiences of a trooper in tokyo cum a conglomerate of all things otaku and japan who has the following of the entire foreign otaku community so ya better not waste with him!

I'm not sure myself; DC.com is like a place where I can connect to going-ons in Japan. Something like sitting down to the evening news... But ordinary evening news don't have 2D girls on display. :P

What is DannyChoo.com? Tough one, even for a technical writer, lol...

Long version: "It's not simply one person's site or blog, it's a community. Guided by a playful yet honest vision, it's an international community of like-minded admirers of Japanese entertainment, culture, humor, technology, sexuality, even philosophy. A community by the fans, for the fans."

Short version: "A global community guided by its playful yet honest admiration of Japanese entertainment and culture."

Something like that, lol. ^.^;

Its an "Anything in Japan" site for me.

A place to relax reading news about ero stuff j/k j/k! DC.com is like a place you go when you wanna relax from the stress of the 3D world and at the same time read and see useful things, like Idols.

www.dannychoo.com

Japanese Culture Get!

To me DC.com is a community based blog/site with news and info related to Japan and everything else otaku ^^

really good community ^^ of japan lover (i make a short version xD )

Thanks for all the feedback. Am writing up the help pages now.

DC.com- my source of inspiration, motivation, laughs, and randomness.

I came to dannychoo.com for the figure news at first but the Japan news is awesome as well seeing as how I can't be there myself right now. I count on this site to tell me how awesome all the figures I'm now going to buy are. ^_^

i still remember how i discover this site. had a weird dream last year. yoda was talking to me, "check out dannychoo.com u must. strong with the force he is."

when i first came to DC.com, i always wondered who that stormstrooper is? i thought it was just a random cosplayer and this blog owner has a fetish of following the trooper wherever he goes and taking pics of him. it was until much later that i found out that the trooper is in fact the blog owner. lol. ^^;

DC.com?

Disconnected to Conventional.COMmunity?
Disarray Chronicles?
Dolphin Care COMmunity?
Desire Culture

Etc...

A fun community. ^^

a place were I can be myself, the hentai lover, video games addicted and anime fan I truly am

For me, a place of inspiration, and the origins of the stormtrooper antics.

Tis a wonderful place. =)

DC.com to me is the place where i can find info about japanenes culture

Hi Danny and others, im the newbie here, but been reading much of the stuff u got here 4 quite a time..huhu, and i definately have to agree bout calling this site as ` A Slice of LIfe`. Its good really, i dont know for others, but as fo myself..i never been to Japan yet ( as i always dreamin and hopin i could someday) i found that this site gives me some idea what real Japan looks like huhu..

DC is a site for those who like to know about Japan, where to live, how, when, and so on. The site also introduce some awesome figurines news, tech, game, sub-culture of Japan [otaku]. DC is still a growing site.

I love to come to this site because it help me to learn about Japan and can get the latest news on figurines :D

OMG! I haven't commented here yet!

Hmmm... how to define DC.com... where crazy otaku shenanigans happen, and sometimes the moderator, Danny, will let it slide XD

I would say that DC.com is a site that shows the true aspect of Japanese culture and of the sub-culture of otakus. Also I believe that through "comments" and the articles we create we are making windows into our own lives and opening our minds to the other people in the world who use DC.com. I personally use DC.com to show the little and big things that happen in my life like Danny does, because life isn't always as they would show in advertisements to visit a country. I think its best to hear what the people have to say than to just assume things. The comments I receive to me is like having mini pen pals around the world, and its exciting to know how others think when I can't be in their shoes.

It's a gate way to japan, in a way haha.

The things danny bring to light for us about japan through this site will flush your face with high amounts of awesomeness. The reviews on figurines as well as the motivational talks he makes are great, and the picture walks he does really let's you see japan right from your desktop.

This site's suitable for otakus, people who enjoy japan's culture, food lovers and many more.
