Re: Anybody like Japanese Food?
I forgot to mention this, but I like gyoza too. Best side dish I could ever find in this world. Well, maybe in my top three. Most of the foods I eat are kind of greasy or overly salty. But I've been put on a diet so I may be eating less of my favorite foods. Who knows? I sure had fun hearing from yo...

Re: Favorite Practical Joke?
My favorite practical joke is more likely to piss off people who are obsessive compulsive or are detail-oriented.
I'll give them a spoon instead of a fork.
I'll give them one ice cube instead of a couple.
I'll say "Your shoe's untied" when they are wearing laceless\no shoes.

Re: Halloween Costume Talk
I didn't dress up for Halloween. One, most if not all costumes won't fit me, Two, A sweatjacket with bones on it doesn't constitute a costume Three, I'm pretty sure that people have made Halloween into the only acceptable day where beautiful woman dress sexy and I'm not much to look at since I weigh...

Re: 70% of Japanese Men 20-40 don't have Girlfriends
Have you heard of the term "grass eater"? It refers to men who are passive and don't really invest time to pursue women. On the other side of the spectrum, "meat eating women" are agressively trying to find a man to settle down with. Or at least that's what I've been told. The st...

Re: Top 10 Traits Japanese men like in thier Girlfriends
That's no problem for me...well maybe the "go anywhere with them" may pose a challenge. I recently panicked while doing errands with my father (it wasn't any fun for my father either, since he panics in brightly lit places). I panicked because it was brightly lit and crowded. Also noise is...

Anybody like Japanese Food?
I have to say it: The one thing I loved equally to anime, manga, videogames, music and Super Sentai is the food of Japan. Rice is considered to be a godly commodity. I prefer my rice to be short grain, but I'll put almost anything on it. Well, maybe not ketchup. (I can't eat tomatoes due to an aller...

Re: Do people know how to read hiragana/katakana?
I remember my first time reading an anime magazine from Argentina (I was 13-14 and my father was traveling all the time because he was at Microsoft). Inside was a section on katakana. I learned how to write the names of the Pokemon in Japanese. About a year or so later, I received a plastic card tha...

What do you identify yourself as?
Okay, I'm bored out of my mind. But this idea will help me and others get to know each other. We all go around telling our gender (age if you want to specify) and give a little taste of our heritages and our true selves. I identify myself as a young woman (age 22), who is of British-Irish-Scottish-W...

Re: Would you buy any of the Sentai if it was officially subbed?
Ruecian, what I'm trying to say is that if I download, I would be breaking international copyright laws. You break the law, you go to jail. I'm not willing to risk my life over a video file. I used to download music back when MP3s were emerging and I was a stupid kid back then even though I was at a...

Re: Different Languages?
I know a good portion of German, Spanish and Japanese. I've dabbled in French, Mandarin and Italian. Tried Korean and Russian but never got anywhere. I have been known to drop F-bombs (or rather, their equivalent) in Mandarin. But then again, I never had to swear at somebody lately. I live in the Se...

Re: Why the giraffe got the long neck
Actually, this theory was explored on Bill Nye The Science Guy. I know that usually theories aren't easy to say that they're right. But it was simply stated as giraffes kept reaching for taller trees, the longer their necks grew. As nature went its way, the giraffe's neck got longer and longer. This...

Re: Crayon Shin-Chan creator found dead
I love Crayon Shin-Chan. It's sad whenever a writer\illustrator dies. Actually, scratch that. It's sad when well-known people die.

Re: Would you buy any of the Sentai if it was officially subbed?
I'm not much of a talker. I used to download the shows provided here, but I never was a talker. In real life, I can and will talk your ears off. The reason I don't download anymore is more of a morally and ethically based reason. As for my topic being similar, there's always one or two people who th...

Would you buy any of the Sentai if it was officially subbed?
Just a question that's been on my mind and I have been planning to work on my company (My company would do what TV-Nihon is doing, only it wouldn't have ethics and politics become a problem) My question is: Would you buy any of the Super Sentai Series if it was subtitled by a company here in America...

Re: MegaRanger 16 Released
Like I said before, I believe there is a tomorrow for that time. I don't believe that the world will end on 12/21/2012, even though people are exploiting that myth with disaster movies like 2012. As for the show, I thought it was great. Monster thinks he's won, but dies fighting the healed Megarange...
