    do guys watch sailor moon

    I've watched the old series, some of the movies, and the new Sailor Moon Crystal. I've read a few volumes of the manga. Played some of the video games on Super Famicom too. Interestingly enough, the author/artist of Sailor Moon is married to Yoshihiro Togashi, the author/artist for Yu Yu...

    Do you only watch mecha anime?

    I'll watch anything, as long as it is good. When I was younger, I would've considered shojo manga/anime such as Fushigi Yugi and Marmalade Boy as a guilty pleasure. Of the old mecha anime, Mazinger Z/Tranzor Z, SDF Macross stand out for me. For 90's, Gundam 0083:Stardust Memory, Nadesico...

    Hiaragana, Katakana or Kanji ?

    Learn all of them. Learn a few characters at a time and practice writing and spelling with them. Hiragana is mainly for Japanese language words. Katakana is very useful for recognizing foreign names and loan words, such as "start," "Accel" (short for accelerate), "baito" (for part-time job...

    Your First Introduction to Anime/The First Anime You Downloaded/Purchased?

    My first introduction to anime was in the form of early morning showings. It consisted of Doraemon, Saint Seiya, City Hunter, Dragon Ball, and Captain Tsubasa, depending on the day. That was a long, long time ago. The first anime VHS tape I bought... I can't really recall. Sanctuary is the...

    What are you watching (movies)?

    Wushu. It stars Sammo Hung. It was okay. So-so predictable plot. Not much in the way of fight sequences. But the individual competition performances are pretty damn good. If you want a rough idea of how Jet Li became famous, the movie gives a glimpse into the kind of lifestyle a wushu...

    As a girl I want to know this abt JAV and Hentai lovers

    My current girl, it would be out of the question. She doesn't even like it if I casually talk to any female friend. One ex, we would watch a few vids from time-t0-time. She would admit to me she would watch AV while I was out of the house, and masturbate. Towards the end of our relationship...

    Suspect admits to stabbing pop idol after his gift, advances rejected

    The industry should consider compulsory martial arts training for self-defense, when they contract idols; a la Jackie Chan/Sammo Hung/Yuen Biao. It can be a subset of their intensive dance choreography training. Heavens only know they need it.

    How do you go about passing the time? (Other than fapping)

    Many things. Lately, just learning about the world and current events. I suggest watching the documentary: All Wars are Banker's Wars and Zeitgeist. Both are on youtube.

    I can always say: Berserk Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust Kimagure Orange Road Yakitate! Japan For myself, but I think others will find boring by modern standards: The Five Star Stories Saint Seiya City Hunter Captain Tsubasa Last thing I watched which was good: The Boy and the Beast/Bakemono no Ko

    Scanlated Martial Arts Manga?

    Shamo - very dark Seinen manga. I think the portrayal of the various martial arts are pretty accurate to real-life. A live-action Hong Kong film was made based on the manga a while back. But just warning you, the ending feels very rushed and disappointing. Holy Land - Also a nice accurate...

    Three: 1) U.S. Asian Clubs Racist? 2) Pick Up Asian Chicks, Clubs 2) U.S.-Asian Club Girl Behavior

    1) Sounds like a mix of exclusivity mixed with prejudice stemming from racism. It may or may not be in this case, but I'm already assuming this Korean club is a Korean booking club. In Korean booking clubs, the girls are directed to tables where men sit. It's kind of an indirect way for men...

    All New TopGear Season 23 Episodie 1 2016 - From BBC 2. Enjoy It.

    I thought the 1st episode showed potential. Chris Evans isn't very good though. I think they would be fine if they kept Sabine, Chris Harris, and Matt Leblanc. And they should bring back Tiff Needell, since it looks like Fifth Gear appears to be done as a series.

    Name your top 5 most annoying enemies for...

    For Legend of Zelda, I only have 2. 2. Boss of the 3rd dungeon/tower, in Zelda 3:Link to the Past. It's like a big segmented worm, with an invincible body and a vulnerable tail. If he knocks you off the ledge, you have to climb your way back through the dungeon to restart the fight. 1. Black...

    Favorite Gaming Console?

    For me, it would have to be the NES, SNES, and Playstation 1. I played the bulk of my hardcore gaming on those consoles. I have many PS2, PS3, and Wii games, but they mostly sit relatively new, collecting dust on the shelf. Some games, like Final Fantasy Type-0 and Metal Gear Solid V, I...

    ScanLover Forum closing the end of May...

    Also a refuge from SLF. I almost posted pics of my ex's, but seeing as how the forum is kind of left in a suspended archive, I'm kind of relieved it locked me out from doing so. I thought it would have all disappeared.

    Recommendations For Any Good Japanese Slice of Life/Drama/Romance/Physiological films?

    Drama romance slice of life? One that comes to mind for me is "Kami no Shizuku" (Drops of God). It's based on a manga about wine sommelier tasting battles. For romance, it would be Hana Yori Dango (Boys Before Flowers). It started as a manga, became an anime, and got Taiwanese, Korean, and...

    Recommend me great anime

    One Punch Man (this is the current big hit. It's a gag-comedy battle story. Easy and fun to watch). Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (especially the 3rd arc, Stardust Crusaders. If you can only watch 48 episodes of Jojo, watch Stardust Crusaders). Hikaru no Go (this was the major series that really...

    Am I the only one who thought Attack On Titan was overrated?

    It really is a matter of taste. I had to force myself to watch a full season of Sword Art Online. It has it's sweet romantic moments. But to me, it is a wish-fulfilling feel-good kind of family-friendly story. It's easy-to-watch cutesy fare like K-On. For a similar fantasy/game romance sim...

    Do you think HunterXHunter will ever reach a conclusion?

    Togashi is pretty warn out. Usually during his blurbs between manga releases, he pretty much wishes for his pains to go away. He must have it pretty rough healthwise, to be in perpetual pain for these past several years. That said, Hunter X Hunter has returned and has begun reserialization...

    Why are thigh and knee highs so attractive..so much more than tights?

    There's a specific term for thigh high stockings and knee high socks, paired with short skirts. "Zettai Ryouiki." 絶対領域 (Absolute Territory) It's kind of a play on words after AT Field (Absolute Terror Field), from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Do a google search for Zettai Ryouiki, and you'll...

    Game inspired Anime(s)

    Ninja Ryukenden (Famicom) / Ninja Gaiden (Nintendo Entertainment System) Totally early 90's fare. Dragon Quest. The first one is Yusha Abel Densetsu. The second one, Dai no Daibouken, started as a manga in Weekly Shonen Jump. Fate Stay Night and Steins Gate are probably better known...
