Oh hey. We've already met before (that place is kind of dead now though). Not sure if you're going to be staying here, but I hope you'll enjoy it here.
For whatever reason I've been drinking a lot more green tea the last few months. I used to not drink it that often, guess I'm addicted to it now.
Nice to meet you too. |

I see we have a bunch of new people this week. So a big welcome to ZeetherKID77, exilesgate, s0ju, KDT6890, Professor315, and naruto02. Hopefully you're already enjoying your stay here at the CNN of the anime world hehe. As part of your welcome here though it's ow my utmost joy to give you your mystery welcome bag of goodies. ::hands them each a brown bag:: You lucky guys and girls get such nice items as a 3x3 inch piece of cork from a bulletin board, the spring from inside a stapler, the handle (just the handle) from a paper cutter, and the little brush part (just that) from a bottle of white out. While enjoying these truly bountiful gifts don't forget; Don't drink and park - accidents cause people.

Most recognition on my list goes to Megaman, Strider, Final Fantasy(4's my personal favorite.), Castlevania, Metroid, Tales series, Sonic(2's the best,3's pretty cool), HALO and many others. Favorite Anime: Again, quite a few to choose from. Slayers takes #1, followed by Outlaw Star, Get backers, Gun X Sword, Love Hina, Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Elemental Gelade, Ranma 1/2, Excel Saga, Fushigi Yugi, Full Metal Panic, Berserk, Black Lagoon, Kyo Kara Maoh, and so on... Favorite Movies: I personally liked The Master of Disguise,Transformers, De javu, and Live free or Die hard. Favorite Manga: Ranma 1/2 and One Piece. Zombie Powder is pretty awesome too. They should make that into an anime. So, what else do you like besides Video Games/Anime/Manga?: I like to read novels too. I'm into Fictional Adventure. Harry Potter was great, I've read all 7 of them. The Keys to the Kingdom books are pretty good. Worst Manga/Book You've Read: The Catcher in the Rye. BLEH. When did you first get into Video Game/Anime/Manga?: Ehh... I've been playing Video games since the NES. Anime... I think my first ever anime was either Slayers or Pokemon, so 97,98ish. As for Manga, well I really haven't gotten into Manga all too much. Sooo... anything else you do?:Other than go to school and hang out with friends, nothing else worth mentioning |

Favorite Chinese TV show : Wong Fei Hong: Once Upon a time In china the series from 1995-1996. wish it would get subbed(or fan subbed). I have the first 3 parts in vietnamese and the last 2 parts in chinese. My wife explains the Vietnamese for me. It's still fun to watch no matter what language.

I own all of the Godzilla movies( I have some in both languages and some just dubbed). My goal is to get all the Godzilla movies in Japanese with eng subs. Pet: My lil "Powder Puff Tail Boy" my cool Rabbit Asuka http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGwpP3KE1Ig Religion: God, Jesus, and I respect Buddhism. I also have respect for other religions. It's up to you to be what you want. I don't believe in pushing religion on other people. Other hobbies: collecting live action Chinese and Japanese shows, video games( I own the old nes, snes, Sega Saturn, psx(with a mod-chip, I got lucky on this one), and a psx 2, also a NDS). I also collect import games for these systems too(mostly anime related). I finally got a copy of DBZ Hyper Dimension for the super famicom.

Favorite drink: Mr. Brown's cold coffee in the can imported from Taiwan. I love the asian grocery store. they keep the coffee in stock!!! Dislikes: Racism and people that always put other people down for no real reason.

If you don't then thats too Bad, your lose not mine!!! quote we use at work a lot to explain every situation: "Small world, Small world"!!!!! 24 is my lucky number. Been watching anime now for about 30 years(this includes the shows I saw english dubbed as a kid). Been collecting anime on and off since about 1988( Years before it became super popular, and easily found in stores). Back then it was either buy bootleg tapes, pay high prices for the original videos, or go rent and copy from a japanese video store(if you were lucky enough to live near one or know where one was at). When companies like animeigo and US Rendintions started to bring anime to the US uncut and unedited the only place to get them was thru mail order or at comic books stores or conventions. It was in the fall of 1993 that anime started to show up at the retail stores. The Unknown 24
