Very interesting: because in our culture, blue is the color most commonly associated with sadness, and so it would be one of the last colors I would expect somebody to pick for this sort of project.

The link does not load. :( Also, "subjunctive," not "subjucntive". By the way, I just realized that even though your answer makes sense for the first sentence, it still doesn't explain why Satoshi begins his second sentence with でも and why he proceeds to mention feeling so warm. "Don't blame me...

Cool! Thank you so much. Can you give me 10 other sentences with 10 other verbs (in place of 引く) that display this concept? I know that might be a bit much to ask, but I could really use the grammar lesson.

Note: This is a Japanese language thread, not an anime thread, despite the subject matter involved. Hence why I posted the thread here. So, I'm watching the first season of Pokemon in Japanese without English subs. Enjoying it. Don't understand all of it, but that's partly the point. I'm trying...

Bump. I got some draft/tracing paper to work with. It's been pretty good for tracing, but it's super-duper thin. I'm still working on faces. Really, part of the problem is that I get bored drawing still-life P.O.S.es, but because I'm a drawing amateur, I really do need to learn the basics behind...

No way. D: I figured it'd show up no problems. Never showed up? That sucks -- but it beats Chris Handley Part 2.

Doujinshi DB is an excellent resource when looking for authors, especially if you don't know any Japanese. All you have to do is go to Google and type in: [the name of the author you're looking for] doujinshi db No quotation marks. Hit enter. Voilà...

I'm hoping he does one that looks just as badass with Stephen Stone (ダイゴ Daigo in the original Japanese) alongside Metagross. Maybe Metagross's face wouldn't look all that different from Steelix's, but it'd still be something I want to see this guy draw. :D I asked him about Cynthia (シロナ...

With the help of an anonymous tip from 4chan's /r/ , I toddled over to Pixiv, signed up for an account, and searched for レム (Remu). Found his account after some trial and error. Found the picture. Left a long message for him (split into three parts). Made numerous grammatical errors which...

Finished the episode last night. Pros and cons: Cons: - after drawing out so many lesser scenes from the film, I was disappointed by the fact that this was the final Sighs episode. I had wanted to see the making of these four classic moments from the film: (1) Kyon's sister joins the team as...

I found this the other day and would like to know who drew it, if there are more of these pictures, and if there are then where I can find them. It would be incredible if this artist drew one for each Johto Gym Leader, and even more incredible still if they drew one for every single...

CAN'T. WAIT. :D

Halfway through the news episode, and all I can say is ORGASM. Talking cat? Check. Talking cat is amazing? Check. Major plot developments? Check. (Asahina's faction vs. Itsuki's faction vs. Yuki's faction) Fun fun fun? Check, check, check. Only halfway thru, and already this is the best...

The Japanese one. The English DLSite doesn't even fucking have the file up for grabs yet. But looking at past precedent, (a) it'll take a month before it does, maybe longer; (b) it'll also only be PDF (no JPEG option, no PNG option, no physical paper!?!?!?!?!?!?? option), and (c) it'll still...

The newest issue of Macxe's Dinaranger series is finally up for sale on DLSite, but unfortunately when I tried to register for an account, they demanded waaaaaaaaay too much private info. Why the fuck do you want to know what the credit limit is on my card? To me, that's a big red flag: "WE PLAN...

Currently en route to the 7th gym town. The release of PokeSav for HGSS makes life a lot easier. I don't plan on manipulating my team's stats until I've completed Story Mode since I want to retain the main story's element of challenge (and the feeling of accomplishment that goes with it), but...

That looks so boring I'm not even going to bother. Sigh. What should have been a great body-transformation-results-in-sex-addiction hentai turned out to be a how-many-fucked-up-fetishes-can-we-cram-into-one-series hentai. A shame, really.

My favorites by nostalgia are almost entirely Gen 1. My favorites by design are roughly split between Gens 1 and 3, with very few coming from 2 or 4. My favorites by utility (e.g. in competitive play) are spread throughout the gens, go figure. Design examples: Nidoking, Charizard, Bulbasaur...

You're in the land of the ninja, aqua [/weeaboo mode], so you shouldn't have any trouble finding these babies and putting them to good use. Edit: my mistake, if I'm trying to pretend to be a Japanophile, I suppose I ought to post the link which takes you to the Japanese-specific variant of this...

Brief intro: these games use the 4th-generation Pokémon graphics engine (introduced with Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and also later used in Pokémon Platinum). They are visually-upgraded re-releases of the original Gold and Silver games from 1999 (JP) / 2000 (USA) but with some slight alterations...

Is the woman in the last two pictures half-n-half, or is she full-blooded Japanese? She looks really Western.

I love the comments, and I love the new batch of photos.

I have never been a big fan of the Block User feature. I think it flies in the face of everything a message board stands for. We come here to communicate with one another. It's dumb of the blocker whenever he blocks somebody because then he looks like an idiot when the blockee makes posts (or...

Just watched Episode 13 for the second time. (Watched it last night previously.) This is without a doubt one of my favorite episodes in the entire series. I loved the surprising scene where Kyon attempted to strike Haruhi. I mean, it's not cool that he has abusive impulses ^^; , but it's totally...

I own it and hate it. Well, hate's a strong word, but I feel super-lied to. Okami's artstyle may be pretty in theory but its actual graphics are horseshit. They remind you of an N64 title. Not joking. Okami has a really, really fucking annoying audio track for dialogue. People just sort of...

No, I won't. TP was my last one. Didn't buy Phantom Hourglass, didn't care to buy Minish Cap, and won't be buying this one either. It's not that I'm hating on Zelda: it's that Zelda games aren't different enough from title to title to warrant a re-purchase and, unlike some other fairly...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. ;__________________________; I even re-watched Episode 01 from Season 1 twice because I wanted to see Shamisen. That cat is a-fucking-mazing. IT'S A CAT THAT TALKS! AND IS SMART, TOO! It makes me sad every single fucking...

Not as far as I know. The novels have been fan-translated, but official translations are only out for the first two books so far. I've got all nine but I've got 'em all in Japanese. I'll probably get them in English soon enough. I want the hard-cover versions and I don't want them to have been...

I only wanted to put up five options. School girl uniforms are definitely common, you're absolutely right, but when I wrote this poll I had just gotten done reading a lot of screw-the-other-guy's-wife hentai and it made me think to put up housewife roleplaying for the fifth slot. And it looks...

I think "Zelda could use a good 10-year break."

aqua:He'd be the center of attention at parties if you taught him to say Pera Pera Pera, Pera Pera. Asking for the red light district may be an indicator that he's a shy introvert, but it's still a fair question imo. Then again, I wouldn't have your response to this thread any other way...

"Wow, is that what a light novel looks like?" To address your surprise, I suppose we should answer why the books are classified as light novels in the first place. What exactly does the term "light novel" mean? A novel, as you know, is a work of prose written in book form, usually covering a...

I've seen the F Word before when in England, yes. Honestly, I'd love to see Gordon -- can I call him Gordon? XD -- I'd love to see Chef Ramsay open up a kitchen in America in which he teams up with best friends of his and serves royalty and the like. Not because I expect to see him fuck up --...

This question is most easily answered with samples.

Teenagers, young adults, and the mentally handicapped getting into off-topic arguments on media websites. Tonight (err, this morning? 3:28am local), I was watching the latest episode of Hell's Kitchen on Hulu. After I finished it, I scrolled down to read the comments people had made. What did I...

Sigh = Endless Eight, the only difference being that the fanbase seems to like Sigh. lol Personally, I like both, so it's not like I'm complaining all that much. However, I also do not love either one of them. Like. Not love. Sigh is dragging on a bit too slowly for my tastes. The last episode...

Dude, she totally looks like an adult! Face plus boob size! Both belong to an anime adult female! No? ... maybe I've been around anime for way too long. XD

This is what you said! ^^; Paraphrased, yes, but in essence the very same! "I don't expect anything will change. Except for hentai and Junior Idols! Those will change. Just not anything else." It seems rather ... unlikely. Maybe hentai and Junior Idol stuff will become illegal, but if they do...

Judging from the reactions, it seems people think this is a joke thread. Is it a joke thread? I thought he was being serious, and I felt bad for the guy. Yes, I could see this happening in real life: 'cause yes, I don't have much faith in humanity when it comes to making intelligent decisions...

Dunno what you mean. There's four pictures of the girl, let's say. Two in the first thumbnail and one in the second two. From left to right ... #1 = 30+ #2 = 18 to 25 #3 = 18 to 25 #4 = 30+ (and identical to #1, I realize, but still)

Suppose that any drink which starts with the letter C hurts you. Suppose that any drink that starts with the letter W heals you. Suppose that humanity is ignorant of this fact. Here we go ... Scenario 1: 200 years ago, coffee was the beverage of choice of the people of Planet Mirth. Eventually...

Here are some sample videos. TOTAL FILESIZE = ~75 Megs. Very tiny! Video 1: these are the very first few scenes in Episode 1. They introduce you to Hitomi and her two boys, Shun and Ryo, as well as to the world filled with adversity in which Hitomi lives. If you don't speak Japanese, a very...

I dunno about that, but if you want proof of his professionalism, all you need request is his portfolio. Isn't that what most artists would use to prove their professionalism: showing their actual projects?

Just finished Episode 2. Man, this story is really good but really sad! Towards the end of the first episode, Shun seems to be having a lot of inner turmoil over the full-blown realization of something he's long suspected -- that "Mama" was once upon a time "Papa," a man, and that his real mama...

"Long ago, Mama was Papa" is a six-episode television drama airing in Japan as we speak. The first two raw episodes were uploaded tonight to D-Addicts by one of their forum administrators. I am over halfway through the first of these episodes and I gotta say, this is a touching in-your-face...

No clue. :\ The recent magazines I've been reading (August and September 2009 releases) have been blah blah blah blah blah HOLY COW AWESOME so far. What I mean is, they each have 50% shit, 45% meh, and then 5% (one story) pure awesomeness. I forget which specific ones I've read over the last 72...

If you had to pick one costume for your significant other to wear in the bedroom, which one costume would you pick from the following professions? I know there are lots more options, but the question is which one out of these five would you be most likely to pick?

Here's a list of some common fantasies people have regarding sexual intercourse, and they've all got to do with getting dirty in something. Which one would you pick?

Nope, sorry.

I only noticed it once, not twice, but yeah, I saw it too. (I only downloaded the MKV version.)
