It's the biggest anime con that I go to in Arizona, and I always have fun there. I just got my event pass last night and booked a hotel a couple blocks down the road - because, y'know, I'm cheap. ^^ Oh dip, I totally forgot to print out my receipt at work so I can get my pass. Gotta do that tomorrow *nod nods*

Absolutely the originals. When you translate Japanese to English, some things don't translate well or read as smoothly translated as they did in Japanese. The song is (usually) built to accommodate the natural inflections and syllable structure of Japanese and an English translation would either result in a very bulky, unpoetic rendition in a result to preserve the meaning or would end up lacking in meaning/accuracy to preserve the fluidity of the song. Of course this isn't always the case, but I think that even if it wasn't, the original is better and I would rather have a cover sung in Japanese with an accent of some kind rather than an English translation cover

@Unfortunate Chances are I may know you if you visit fanquest often. Used to live there.

I actually couldn't into the angsty drama either, but I trudged long enough to get to episode 4, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited for the final episode. Which might be the darkest one. ~T

I suppose it all depends on what you want. An acoustic guitar is great for beginners since you don't have to by extra stuff like an amp or wires or foot pads and all that other fun stuff. My personal belief is to always work with the basics. You will find that your fingers will start to have callouses on them from continued playing. As for the make of the guitar while sinking your money into the most expensive acoustics is an investment to the future I recommend getting something fairly affordable. Yes you get what you pay for but even the cheapest guitars if properly maintained can sound just as good as a high end model. As for strings for your guitar I would recommend metal strings over nylon considering you don't need to re-tune metal strings every five minutes like nylon and have a much crisper sound compared to nylon. However Nylon wont shred your skin on your fingers like the high end strings. Nylon strings are good for finger picking songs like most songs from Mexico. Happy playing!

To me its one of the coolest games I've ever played, I love the idea and I've spent more time on MH4U then fallout 3.

Hah it's still growing, I just bought 100 nintendo powers 2-68 almost all new still, and 100+ other ones, at least I'm addicted to this instead of drugs right? -_-
