*falls* You mean you made a thread about the band and you've only heard one song? There's definitely a loss of credibility going on here...... Get the latest CD. If you like [i]Way Away[/i], you'll probably also enjoy most of the songs on "Ocean Avenue". The only one I can truely say that I can't listen to is [i]View From Heaven[/i] because the violin is so prevalent at the beginning you'd think it was a country how-down. lol *falls again*

Android Kikaider: The Animation was made in 2000............. The show "looks" old because the animators used the old style of drawing in homage to the live action series of the 70s.

I like Yellowcard! The violins in their songs sounded weird to me at first, but now I'm really likin' it. My favorite songs by them from the newest CD are [i]Miles Apart, Ocean Avenue, Only One[/i] and [i]Breathing[/i]. They were just in State College a few weeks ago, but I didn't go.

[quote]There. Any confusing elements, ask. I'll be happy to answer or research it. :-) One confusing thing that can throw people off a bit, is Komyogi never had kids, he just created them all.[/quote] Your poor attempt at explaining Kikaider 01 would only make people more confused.[spoiler] They are NOT Mitsuko and Masaru. The boy is Akira and is Doctor Gil's son while the girl is Rieko, an android created to take care of him. [/spoiler] Mitsuko and Masaru are humans. I'll spell it out: H-U-M-A-N-S.

Kikaider 01 is not the same show and was not intended to be an extension. It was an OVA based on the Kikaider 01 live action series. The Kikaider series are some of my favorite anime, by the way. I enjoyed Kikaider 01 moreso because I liked Ichiro and Rei's characters. I'm assuming if there really is another Kikaider anime series (considering the others weren't that popular in Japan), it will probably focus more on Kikaider 00.

I'm glad someone posted so I can get this avatar on here. Thank you Chichiri's Girl!!! :) Well, Double_B_Daigo is using my Knives banner and he asked for a matching avatar so here it is: [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=498797[/img]

I'm on a crazy posting spree in my thread tonight because I'm leaving for home in an hour and won't be at my computer until sunday night. And by coincidence, I got about 3 or 4 requests. Here's a Rin and Sesshoumaru banner made for Ryu Sakura. I really liked this picture so I didn't do much changing to it. [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=498774[/img]

Son Goku is from the anime Saiyuki. He is an ape boy just like the Goku we all are already familiar with. I have to reattach this banner because Eternal Otaku deleted the thread with his request in it ........... yeah...........

I've really been getting into the simpleness. Also, I've been working less to satify what I think others would like, but rather what I find pleasing to my own tastes. With that being said, here is another Son Goku banner. [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=498711[/img]

Ohkami, I believe. I guess this topic is now "open" for closing. heh. *steps back*

There were no mess ups, Eternal Otaku. Your post was not clear so I made one with Hellsing. Frankly, I don't feel like making another one. Here's a gag banner I made. The person asked for a Halo (the video game) banner with a warthog (the motor vehicle) on it. Immediately, I saw this in my mind and said to myself that I had to do it as a joke. I wonder what blahman will think when he sees his "Halo" banner. Hahahaha. [img]http://kangarugh.250free.com/warthog_halo.jpg[/img] Edit: I guess Syk or someone didn't like my joke and deleted my post. Boo hoo! Blahman didn't even get to see it. :(

The avatar is not so good. The picture looks like you crumpled up a piece of paper and tried to smooth it out. The text is not the easiest on the eyes either. Also, there are white lines on the top and bottom that don't look like they were intentional. The banner is also not so good. The picture itself is of bad quality and is squashed vertically. The picture was just resized and no real image editing was used. Same problems with the text as on the avatar. I'm not trying to tell you to stop making more. Just be more careful with how things look together. A Paint (that's what it looks like you are using) banner has to be really well done and planned to actually be eye-pleasing. :)

[size=1][quote]You live in greensburgh?[/quote] Yeah I live in Greensburg (no "H"). If you've been to Joy's, you've practically been to my house. Heh heh.[/size] It seems that no one (including me) really knows where any of these candies come from. So let's just talk about any kind of Asian treats, candies, or snacks like most have been doing. :)

Yeah, I guess Yan Yan is more of a fruitiful megadelicious ultra-snack, but oh well. People still consider [i]chocolates[/i] as candy, no? Hence the name [b]candy[/b] bar. Heh. [size=1][i]Happy 350 posts![/i][/size]

[quote][i]Originally posted by Drix D'Zanth in [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32157]another thread[/URL][/i] [b]If you wanted a DISCUSSION on japanese candy, that would be acceptible.[/b][/quote] I saw that thread with someone asking for sites where you can buy Japanese candy and I got all excited. I wanted to post about this candy called Yan Yan that I've gotten at a place called Joy's Japanimation which is about 5 minutes from my house. Good stuff! That thread was closed so I made a rule-pleasing thread of my own. ;) Yan Yan is similar to those Kraft cracker packs you used to eat as a kid. (You know, with the crackers or breadsticks on one side and the nasty yellow cheese on the other). Well, these have several breadsticks with sesame seeds on them on one side of a cylinder and on the other side is a fruity icing-like dip. The strawberry flavor is my favorite. :p That's about the only kind of Japanese candy I've ever tried, but I know they sell a lot of other types at Joy's. I know that Pocky is really popular. So who else has tried any Japanese candies? Where do you get it and which are your favorites?

How about this Knives banner? Anyone who writes their name in other people's blood is insane, but for some reason we all still love 'im. [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=497156[/img] [b]Oct. 7th 7:41pm ET:[/b] I did this one as a request for Eternal Otaku. Since no one posted after my last post, I'm just sticking it in here: [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=498760[/img]

It's drawn very well. Much better than my horrible Sesshoumaru picture. The two stripy thingies and the moon are the wrong color though. See below for correct colors. Also, I think his right eye (our left) is too small from the perspective we are looking at him. Very good clothing drawing you did there. [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=497111[/img]

The only ones that I would bother to look at are [b]Highest Rated Artist[/b] or [b]Recently Updated Anime Categories[/b]. I don't like [b]Most Prolific Artist[/b] at all because most of the people who are at the top of that list just have 50 bad pictures instead of 10 good ones. [b]New idea:[/b] I like how, on Deviant Art, you can pick your recent favorites of others' work on your page and it shows a thumbnail of the most recent one. That would be so great, Adam, if you could do this for us. :)

Aye. There aren't many good pictures of Emperor Hotohori out there. (You got the name right, by the way) Yeah you did a good job. One mistake I see is that the white isn't taken out from between his hair strands and between some of the lil' red flowers. :)

My ears were burning so I was forced to come into this thread. Oh yeah, I made that. Haha. I like that Maha banner. He/she (never saw all of .hack//sign) always creeped me out, being all catty and all. Does it ever talk and we can actually hear it? Make a banner with.... hmmm... someone from Fushigi Yuugi (one of my favorite anime)!

I made this banner of Son Goku from Saiyuki because I liked the picture. The background used to be all different colors but I cut it out and stuck it on white. I tried doing something with the back, but it didn't look good since the picture took up so much of the banner. I like it how it is, though.

Here's a little something I just threw together. I'm thinking about using it for myOtaku somewhere. [img]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=495751[/img]

18 and 17 are twins. It's as simple as that.
