XVX Otaku

Hi! Sorry it took me a while to reply.. Kinda forgot... Lol anyways cool ill check it out! And Chicago is a big city and theres anime fans everywhere, unfortunately im kinda introverted and dont really know many awesome individuals.. Hehe Im too shy to approach people on the street to comment on their anime stuff :P like, just yesterday i saw this guy with an awesome Legend of Zelda bookbag!! Lol sorry i think im rambling :P

Actually the pool tables are pretty popular so there is a bit of competition for them. Recently I just learned how to play mouse trap. Have you ever play it? No, I didn't see any deer when I went to Cades Cove. I don't have online account either but I like to play on my brother's sometimes. I don't remember the titles but remember how they were always breaking things. I've only been to McKay's once a couple months ago. I spent alot of time in the anime section. That's a cool shot. Get it? (*^o^*)

I've gotten better with streaming subs but I still find that I'm not able to relax and enjoy the show as much when I have to focus solely on the words to understand, especially if its late and I'm tired. I have visited a few dub sites before but its becoming harder and harder to find them it seems. At this point in time I'm half way through my Bio Mechanics Class, 12 sessions in, with 12 more to go or 13 rather with the last one being an extra. Oh that would be awesome to find a nearby anime related job XD Oh sure, I saw plenty I wouldn't mind having but I have trouble allowing myself to spend money on things even if I want it and have extra money for it. I usually end up talking myself out of getting things for one reason or another, cheaper somewhere else, don't really need it, etc. lol. Sorry for the wait but I have the video now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7djvPuSP4w That's awesome lol I love it. Mind if I use it? lol XD Yeah it felt like a nice if not somewhat saddish ending. I'm sure that if they wanted to avoid campy-ness they could have. It wasn't like a terrible campy movie but there were just a lot more jokes and such then there ever were before in previous series so it seemed campyish in comparison. It didn't bother me much but I think its one of the reasons that some haven't cared for that addition to the DBZ universe. Had some cool villians. I don't think it would have caused any issues to the story structure if they made it more serious. I think it was a good way to end it too.

Why thank you ^_^ Well it might have been a tie of sorts between Mechanics(Gundam Seed Destiny), and Japanese Folklore/Mythical Tales(Bleach, Naruto Shippuden). But I only have one day left in Japanese Folklore(Bleach)and in Mythical Tales (Naruto Shippuden) they're going change to a different language due to funding(turning off cable/dish...whatever I have lol so now streaming stuff off roku) and so that's just going to be a little more effort to enjoy the show most of the time so probably Mechanics (Gundam Seed Destiny) though who knows....maybe after a few more classes my Bio Mechanics class(Eureka Seven AO) might become more interesting. I've heard f a few of those subjects myself! I have yet to delve into them though but hey that's one of the great things of going for this degree right!? There's no limit to the great classes offered by it to further one's study in its field XD Yes and no. It all depends really. Mostly whatever was the newest/hottest release. They had some Naruto Shippuden stuff, Miyazaki movies, Darker Than Black for awhile, I can't remember too well because after going in there a few times I kind of memorized what was there and just glazed over it for the most part unless there was something new lol. But I think they did, just none of it was too surprising that they had it and that it wasn't cheap really(not overly pricy per say but just not like your going to find a great deal). Oh I like to think I have a modest collection lol I can try and make a short video if you'd like lol. It's nowhere near what I've seen with some of the other members here on maiotaku but I'm happy/proud of/with it ^_^ (though I'm always happy to have more XD) Well in my opinion GT was good but it was also the most campy of all the series that I've seen so that's something just to go with, not terribly campy but noticeably. The whole premise of the series is that (garlic jr. I think was his name?) snuck in and got his hands on the dragonballs but goofed when annoyed by goku and wished that he was a kid again and so everyone goes across the universe to retrieve them to wish him back to normal (he is followed by Trunks and his granddaughter Pan, roughly 8 or 12yrs old?) eventually another subplot of sorts opens up about the dragonballs turning dark and dark dragons appearing too which was cool in my opinion. At the end of the show or more really the last episode takes place MANY years after the 2nd to last episode and Pan who is no longer 8/12 but instead more like 70 or older with grandkids of her own, is watching her grandson Goku Jr. fight off against Vegeta Jr.(might not be his name, I can't remember) in a world tournament just like Goku and Krillin both did when they were very young (so its like returning back to the beginning of the cycle which I thought was a nice touch). And as you continue to watch you see the lightly shadowed silhouette of Goku watching the battle before flying off and the series ending. Oh yea I forgot to mention, I forget what exactly happened with the dragonball wish, I think it might have been to purify the dragonballs but Goku was not returned to his original age and so he had to grow up all over again. That's mostly why I think that GT is the last DBZ series that will be made. Because, sure, you could continue the series but you would have to create a virtually entirely new cast for all the viewers because as it stood with Pan being so old (after so many years) and her being Goku's granddaughter then when you think about it, aside from Pan and Goku the rest of the entire cast really had to have passed away from old age.

Sorry about replying late myself. It does seem like a rare trait at times these days. But it is quite a fun thing to try and master it right? lol. Hmm Well I just finished my thesis on Anime OVA's 101 (covering Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles and Sword Art Online), and finally completed my studies in Anime Blending (covering E's Otherwise and Haganai) and I'm currently working on a Mid-Terms ish sort of class covering Mechanics(Gundam Seed Destiny), Bio Mechanics(Eureka Seven AO), and Japanese Folklore/Mythical Tales(Bleach, Naruto Shippuden). Oh and I think there was some offshoot 1 class thing whatever the name was (Eureka Seven Good Night, Sleep Tight, Young Lovers) It was a different kind of class but still interesting. It presented (mostly)the same old stuff but in new was as to still be interesting. What courses are you currently taking? Sort of. My best buy sells some anime dvd's but it's selection has dropped dramatically T_T and now also only sells the most current/expensive releases (last part I can understand). Walmart used to sell some in-store too but it's pretty much stopped as well, not that it had much to begin with (really only like 3 series). My booksamillion has plenty of manga though. But sadly I live about 45mins away from any anime stores. Well I can only say that from a viewers perspective. Have you seen all of GT? Don't want to spoil anything but talking about it if you haven't seen it/plan too.

I play on campus since there's a pool table in 4 of the buildings. Ya, rotation's like nine ball except you use all the balls. Let's see...the only trail I remember is Cades Cove. I've never played Terraia but I meant games like Sims and Minecraft. What kinds of games do you like? I haven't seen many classics but I used to watch Laurel and Hardy with my uncle. I really like Fat Kid Rules the World (based on a book about a 290lbs teen who starts a band with a street rat) and this French movie, La Haine (3 guys who live in the ghetto and do whatever they feel like). Where'd you take the photograph? I'd like to see a snow shot.

When it comes to pool I mostly play eight ball, but sometimes I play rotation. I like games that I can fight in that has several characters and games where I can be creative or do whatever in. I've been hiking a couple of times and I loved the view of being inside the mountains. By the way, what classic movies do you like and what kinds of photos do you like to take?

I love listening to music. ♫♪◖(●。●)◗♪ Also I like to play pool, video games, and I draw sometimes. What about you?

Sort of. It really depends on who I'm with. If I don't know the people I'm with then maybe not but if they're just as goofy or even kind of perverted then maybe its more likely I will be. Perverted because I enjoy dirty jokes (like most people do) and then depending on how perverted they might be then I know how far "too far" certain jokes might be. Basically you know how far you can go before going top far in one direction or another ya know? Also if my meds wear off then most likely I will be lol (ADHD) because when my meds wear off my "filter" of sorts disappears with it. Otherwise I'm somewhat guarded and quiet, trying not to say something that might come out wrong or might make me seem weird. And the anime masters degree isn't something you can every truly master/finish don't you agree? Not really, I've noticed it in the store but not much beyond that. I've seen what I've seen and I'm not too interested in seeing the revamped ones just because well I've pretty much seen the episode already lol. I imagine it does feel weird. I'm sad that they ended it with GT.....that means no more DBZ series :(
