Yeah, it's just unfair to a lot of people who want to just buy them and use them... it's weird that Nintendo has done this poor of a job keeping them in stock. When I was in Japan, I saw a lot of Lucario and Rosalina on shelves... they don't have any store exclusives there either. Hmm... maybe I should only do Fire Emblem too, or only characters I like. But then it feels like I wanna do all or nothing with the Smash series. haha. That's cool, though. I really need to get back to Earthbound. Too many games on my list. haha. Do you have any favorite Fire Emblem characters? I guess you could say I'm a competitive Smash player, but I'm not that good :p Would you ever wanna play online?

I've been learning kendo for about a year now. My reaction time has increased tenfold after learning kendo for a year. You have to react within a second or you could get hit in a soft spot that hurts. I'm taking a break on it for now to get all my bruses healed. It's also expensive x.x Wow, you were really into digimon! What digimon was your favorite?

I'm really wanting to get into Fate/Stay night too. I played the Visual Novel game which I think is amazing. I want to complete it 100% before watching the anime. I have to say that Saber is one of my all time favorite characters. She is what inspired me to get into kendo. Oh wow, I didn't know digimon was getting a reboot. All the characters are all grown up now. That's interesting. I thought for sure they would have just pulled an Ash Katchum and make them eternally young. I was totally addicted to digimon world 2 when it came out. Did you ever watch DBZ? They are bringing back Frieza to fight Goku in a super powerful form. Goku is so powerful at this point he pretty much classifies as a god XD

For manga, all I've really ever read is Bleach... and that was only because I got too impatient waiting on the anime each week during a particularly good arc and couldn't restrain myself from reading several chapters ahead. Even though my preference is strongly with anime, sometimes I like to compare certain scenes between the anime and manga. After I finished Maison Ikkoku, I perused the manga online to make comparisons. The anime appears to be quite faithful, but some key scenes in the manga didn't have the same feeling as the anime. I fully realize a large portion of impact is diluted due to already having "experienced" it in the anime, but there's also the aspect of silence. To me, music is as vital as any other piece to make you... feel something. There were scenes that felt like they were missing something. And, well, what was missing was the music, such as this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFrWruvFkB4 What did you think of Inuyasha? The anime doesn't look too interesting to me, but there's that pesky fact of Rumiko's name attached to it that always makes me look over my shoulder. I wasn't familiar with Kyoukai no Rinne, so I MAL'd it. Apparently I'm a fraudulent Rumiko fan because I didn't know it's her recent manga eheheh. If I was in a Rumiko fanclub, I'd give my card back. I really don't mind cross-dressing or gender-swap-esque elements. I think it can add a fun layer to a series, like "but he's a guy" in Steins;Gate, or the festival in the Persona 5 game. I even enjoyed the pinnacle of cross-dressing, Le Chevalier D'eon. I just get an uneasy feeling when a character is both a male and female. Really, though, aside from Sailor Stars, I can't think of any other series with gender-swapping that made me feel uncomfortable.

I know that problem you had with a dog who couldn't control its bladder well. My mom had an older dog that always needed to be on Prozac and seizure medication. It was tough to keep up with. Unfortunately Alaskan Klee Kais are only found from breeders. Even if one was in the shelter, it would be almost impossible to distinguish it from a young regular husky. One day though, I will get one :P So, what kind of anime have you been into recently?

I recently decided to give up on Amiibo =/ I was going for only the Smash Bros. series, but it got too aggravating. I'm probably selling all of mine soon except for Lucina. Hmm, I'm on chapter... well, I forgot the number now. haha. I'm on the boat being attacked by the bird laguz. Not too far, but a ways in. What have you been playing lately?

Yeah, all the animals I have I rescued myself. One cat I literally rescued when she froze up on the highway. I pulled my car over the kitten and put my emergency lights on to save her. That same cat uses the toilet now. She thinks she's a human :) I don't know much about Alaskan Klee Kai's but I have seen them in person before. They are a lot like regular huskies in personality. Maybe a little bit more open to strangers. You have to spend around $3,000 to get one though x.x Haha, yeah. That cat does kind of look like beast

Manga is something I could see myself getting into if I had the actual physical manga, especially considering I grew up on comicbooks... which, btw, thumbs up on your Marvel shirt. There's just no book stores within a reasonable distance of me... which, fyi, is unfortunate because I could see myself being that guy wasting an afternoon sitting at one of those round tables, oblivious to the people around me, while slamming cups of espresso in succession from the coffee stand tucked away in the corner of the store. What convinced me to finally give Ranma a chance is my adoration for Rumiko Takahashi. My absolute favorite romcom (and just one of my favorite series in general) is Maison Ikkoku. She based it on her own experiences living in an apartment. Despite groan inducing "wtf are you doing" moments, no other series gets romance done as genuinely as Maison Ikkoku. Also factoring my love for Urusei Yatsura, I felt almost obligated to peek at Ranma. And you're right. "Transgender" is the wrong term to have used. I'm a noob to shoujo, so I'm not accustumed to the male/female... thing. My only excuse is that, well, I'm a guy. I'm pretty sure my shoujo experience comes down to Revolutionary Girl Utena, Kimi ni Todoke, and Aoi Hana. Oh, and Sailor Moon. How could I forget about Mamoru the letch. （￣ー￣） Now that I think about it, I love all of those series... so I guess I'm not sure why I avoid shoujo. I suppose I just need someone to slap the hesitation out of my head.
