Everyone should go vote for kur0.

Nobody really cares about the ANIMU BLAWG TOORNAY. Well, I don’t, because I was never part of the community to begin with.

But you all had better vote for kur0gane this time round. Mostly because his competitor is a massive dick. And no, your resistance will NOT make his penis harder.

EVEN YOU CAN MAKE KUROGANE WIN THIS ROUND. YES REALLY. LIKE THE PILOTS OF DAI-GUARD.

It is a newfag summer!

THE LEGEND OF THE LEGENDARY HEROES : Makes my head swim. That is a confusing title.

Osaka Hamlet : What is this I don’t even

Amagami : I am not that up to date with PS2 eroge trends to say anything.

Can Salarymen save the Earth? Of Course they fukken can! (Dai-Guard 1-6)

This is the story… … …

Of a few brave young pilots… … …

And their desire to save the day with their corporate economic sinkhole of an attraction. Which was originally built as an anti-alien weapon. While trying to keep said robot from being liquidated, because, you know, all that red tape is gonna suck.

And when an old-school super robot fan is in the driver’s seat, you know that THIS could be a very hard thing to do. Even if the military sent in an adviser who knows his shit to rein in their hot-blooded antics.

…And that’s just the first 6 episodes in a nutshell. Dai-Guard is weird and rooted in corporate muddling, but the mecha design reminds me of GaoGaiGar and if all else fails, Tamura Yukari is playing a bit-role here and there’s Tanaka Kouhei making the music.

I still can’t believe I have never watched this show in full before. This show is wonderful.

Defining myself

ghostlightning is a bro. A real bro among bros. (Nevermind he’s almost 10 years older than me)

He’s the cool older uncle every guy would love to have, and  it’s been a blast knowing him. Seriously.

And well, he did post about hiding your love for your hobbies in plain sight, which is a pretty cool article.

Personally, while I do get the deal with self-expression, it had never occurred to me that identifying yourself as a geek was necessary. I’m aware that there are people out there who share the same interests, but even then, I’ve never felt the urge to identify myself a geek.

I’ve never believed in identifying myself via hobbies, religion, or even ideals. I was never interested in putting labels onto myself or calling myself something else. I may be intensely passionate about a lot of things, but my BURNING MANY SPIRIT isn’t expressed with things like anime T-shirts or even oddly-colored flipflops.

I do not subscribe in the notion that you have to latch yourself to a group to feel significant or wanted. And while I do have a bunch of friends who I’d love to meet up, I do not feel the crushing urge to do so. And I’ve been through a ton of shit that made me keenly aware the need for companionship.

Identification tags and markers are dangerous and force people into narrow-minded thinking. There are people out there who call themselves Christians, Muslims, Atheists, Environmentalists and Defenders of Ideals, but instead of giving whatever they affiliate themselves with a good rep, they give it bad names with their militant actions, bad attitudes to life and rampant rabble-rousing that makes it extremely unpleasant to use said markers.

At the end of the day, I have no desire to let people know certain sides of me simply because there’s no need for them to learn about it. The real me isn’t defined by my hobbies or my political leaning or my opinion on issues; it’s defined by my attitude towards life, and how I act due to said attitudes. There’s very little need for me to reveal my geek side as it’s intensely personal and it probably creates a caricature of the real me.

My hobbies do not define me. It is my attitude towards life and my actions that reflect said attitude that defines me. This is something I sincerely believe in and it will never change how I feel about the issue.

HOW I RAISED GAME

TIM MAUGHAN, HOW I RAISED GAME?

I AM EXTREMELY CONFUSED AS TO HOW TO DO THIS.

…Fuck this, posting some pirate metal.

I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO RAISED GAME, SO HAVE SOME PIRATE METAL.

This is the best thing you’ll ever hear.

Why am I still watching anime I should be extremely irrelevant now

Ichiban Ushiro Daimaoh: Badass manly harem anime is badass. Akuto is the least wimpy (and most balls-out badass) harem lead ever. And completely balls-out entertaining. WHY DIDN’T I WATCH THIS EARLIER. OH SNAP ITOU SHIZKUA VOICES THE NAUGHTY BOOBY WITCH GIRL. SO TOTALLY SOLD.

Heroman: Bland, but still watchable. It’s not a bad show, but I think the Stan Lee Magic does not work well animated.

SD Gundam BRAVE BATTLE WARROIRS: …This show is the best kid’s show not totally targeted to Gundam otaku ever.

Angel Beats: Shelved until every single episode comes out. Or until either of the three shows end their run. Depends.

Elitism, dickwaving and militant assholes, or why I stopped reading wah.

It has come to no one’s absolute surprise (and probably even less) that wah (owner, proprietor and one man show of Mistakes of Youth) is nothing more than a elitist with an inflated ego and a proven track record of being a lolicon through and through. He’s… … … almost on par right up there with Owen S, Darkmirage, Zac B. and Sean of Colony Drop (when you remove Sean, Colony Drop is a great place for reading about obscure stuff and general trolling done right) on the list of people I should never ever read for the sake of my emotional health.

If there’s one thing tying all these people together, it’s the same thing wah accuses some of the more vocal oldfags on the Internet of doing: Complaining about the state of affairs today. Pot, kettle black, etc. Dust, plank, eye, etc. You get what I mean. Last I checking, complaining about complaining only makes you part of the problem, not the solution. Even if you are right for the most part.

Perhaps wah himself should take some of his own medicine before prescribing it to others. I dunno, maybe, it’d actually make him understand why people complain for a bit. Or maybe not, since wah truly believes that we are all human trash and we deserve to die in a fire.

Shit man, I’m sounding like Pete Z. here. THE PASSIVE AGGRESSIVENESS IS SPREADING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

You know what I think oldfags should be doing instead of just sitting around complaining about why anime has become like processed cheese? Start trying to introduce the newfags to some good ol’ fashioned shows. Stuff like Gundam, Macross, G GUNDAM, GAOGAIGAR, etc. Make them watch all of Kenshin. Probably a little bit of Slam Dunk, Fushigi Yuugi (:3c) and whatnot. Patlabor, Xabungle, VOTOMS, Kimurage Orange Road, YKK, etc, etc, etc, etc.

I dunno, but sitting down and whining/flaming everyone who actually cares/being a elitist jerk isn’t going to solve anything, and in my experience, it only makes everything seem worse after you’re done.

(I AM TOO LAZY TO LINK THE REST. GO FIND THEM ON BING OR GOOGLE OR HURRHURRHURR BAIDOO SOMETHING)

Why Jacob, I am flattered with your forceful declaration of love, but…

I am already attached to a 2D waifu and she is crazy enough to kill you if I get so much as near a guy. In fact I don’t know why you would want to do something as stupid as declaring me your arch-rival.

I sure hope you don’t die. Or Something.

PS: My waifu is Caster.

PPS: The whole post is a joke.
