oh and I forgot! o_o Welcome! ^_^ hehe

You know, I think I've been not really listening to axel_ayumi all this time. Another gal on one of those big dating sites also cited the same problem. She called them "Almost-boyfriends". I assumed the dating site gal meant the horrible thing some girls do where they have a boyfriend for sex and dates then have a male companion to be the emotional support. No, an almost-boyfriend is the guy who enjoys the girl but basically treats her like a guy friend. She gets feelings because they click so well and he just feels like shes a close friend. That situation blows. Sorry for misunderstanding your plight axel_ayumi.

I don't think its to bad. Reminds me a lot of Bakuman. So far it has not sucked me in like Bakuman did, but its still early.

A new character was revealed for the upcoming Tekken 7 fighting game and the western nerds raged out of control. Game director Katsuhiro Harada recently Twitter'd that she would be a region specific character, East-Asia & Europe exclusive. "They want just Muscle & Skinhead (with Gun or MMA style) character," was his response for any region specific characters in the Americas. Any thoughts or opinions about region exclusives, or vocal net gamers swaying development? Speak now, or forever hold your peace. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll287/21wq/lucky-chloe-tekken7-concept-art_zps57be9ae1.jpg

Common interests is a good thing, but if you don't feel any connection, then you don't have a connection. And yes. The whole anime being just for kids is being miscontrued , and surprisingly, is starting to get recognition that it's not. (I can't say it for my family, but otherwise...) I just think you need to be yourself. Eventually, someone will come along, that you like, and they think you're worthwhile. Just keep it up!
