    Yes, I believe I already stated all of this. >_> gakido: You didn't explain what 戦う means or how it's read. Sakun: -_- gakido: :evillaugh: Hentai is surprisingly E/I in this regard because: 1- there tend to be a disproportionately high amount of nerds who write hentai 2- amongst these...

    Photos from Japan

    Seriously, some of those photos are just unbelievably awesome both in terms of what you captured on film and in terms of your proficiency with the camera. Dude: I for one would love a baby torrent in the 50-to-100 MB range of some of these photos. Sample images...

    On the contrary, I love kanji. I've just never, ever, ever heard 戦 read as Ikusa before. It would be as though you told me that 気 wasn't read Ki or 元 wasn't read Gen. 戦争、戦士、戦慄 ... Speaking of which, I just learned something new there too. >_> 戦慄 (senritsu), check. 戦慄する, check. 戦慄く , never...

    new releases August + September 2008

    . . . . . . . . I feel stupid right now. -_-; Sen Otome Valkyrie is Ikusa Otome Valkyrie: two different readings for the same character, 戦 . I'd never heard the kunyomi Ikusa before just now -- I've always read that character as 'sen' (as in sensou, 戦争 , "war") and had no idea that it could be...

    new releases August + September 2008

    I just realized that I'm talking about Sen Otome Valkyrie (SOV), not IOV. So ... ignore what I said while I go back and see if I have any IOV at all ... well ... I have to be. (so confused right now!) Because I watched that trailer and it was definitely from the same story as Sen Otome Valkyrie.

    new releases August + September 2008

    Perfect timing with this release: inoino is drawing / drew what looks like a 2-parter of this story for Slave Heroines. :) I had no idea that they were re-animating this project. I wonder why? The original IOV2 had fine animation, just really dull presentation. (They squandered the...

    Comcast: Acceptable Use Policy

    There is nothing in the world which is provided to consumers in infinite supply unless it is also provided free of charge. Limited supply requires prices, and so vice-versa prices tell you that something's supply is limited. Comcast could charge you $40 a month as they do, $400 a month as we're...

    Comcast: Acceptable Use Policy

    Seriously. -_-; Dude. Only you can determine whether you will or will not go over the 250 limit. But to put it to you simply, if there are 31 days in the longest of calendar months, and if you have a 250 GB monthly limit, then on average you can only download 8 GB a day or on average you...

    Action Anime is Dead

    To put it into perspective, Kyoto Animation selected to animate the second season of Clannad first and put the second season of Haruhi on hold. When you consider that Kanon, Air, and Planetarian are all three of them more popular traditionally amongst Key fans than Clannad is (i.e. I am...

    Action Anime is Dead

    While he might have gone about it the wrong way, The_Shape is right that today's anime market is over-saturated with "moe for the sake of moe" anime at the expense of other genres and that action anime is especially hard-hit. The problem is straight-forward: People are predisposed towards...

    new releases October + November 2008

    I like the story おおきいことはいいことだ with the tsundere sister and her brother who looks like Fate Stay Night's Shirou; I especially love the shorter 2nd part to it, もっとおおきいことはいいことだ. My original 2nd, but later my close 3rd, is the one with the childhood sweethearts who grow up and end up...

    Okay, I've just never heard of Selen, which is why I'm confused. red just said they were the studio -- to me, that implied animation studio. Now you're saying they're actually the ones who made the game. As for EMMNKS's anime, meh, it was just so plain. -_-; I dunno, I'd always dreamed of it...

    US blocking freedom of speech? Have you seen this yet?

    US blocking freedom of speech? Have you seen this yet?

    The Battle for Net Neutrality has been brought to the forefront in the United States courtesy of the lawsuit(s) filed in the last year against Comcast, the United States' #1 provider of cable Internet service. The reason that Google is getting involved, I believe, stems from several factors...

    Squirting in JAVs

    I think you may have misunderstood me. I wasn't suggesting that she is anatomically bizarre in multiple ways and that you should look for some warning signs or something -- on the contrary, one abnormality is enough! And the one I was referring to would be either: 1) overly large Skene glands...

    Squirting in JAVs

    1 Litre over the course of 4 hours seems highly dubious given just how much fluid that is and how little time and storage space we're talking about here. That stated, people are always willing to call the other guy a liar rather than consider that maybe everyone's telling the truth. In other...

    I was not making a personal judgment against you; I was merely stating that the "if I can do it, so can you" response to these kinds of threads is not beneficial nor does it address the actual issue at hand. The question is not, "Can we find a way to safely visit websites that have the...

    The "if I can avoid it, so can they" argument is an irrelevant and demeaning one which people raise time and time again in arguments over (perceived) "malware rights" and other defenses of criminally-minded behavior on the Internet. At an extreme, there are some people who sincerely advocate...

    learning Japanese?

    It isn't that I missed what you wrote; rather, it's that I had (and still have) a hard time believing that somebody who speaks daily Japanese fluently would not have scored Level 2 proficiency on the JLPT, I now think that it is because we are so different in our written and spoken...

    About censorship

    The Japanese don't always leave violent images uncensored. After the killings which occurred around the time of School Days' airing, all anime studios were required to recolor human blood from red to black. This was because of copycat killings which had been going on for some time, first...

    learning Japanese?

    The only way the first statement can be true is if you passed the JLPT Level 3 exam a long time ago and are currently at Level 1 or else you mean to tell us that you speak it fluently but can't read very well. Assuming the latter, I find that very impressive, actually, and encourage you to buck...

    Comic Market 74 Summer 2008!

    If the grand total was roughly $1100 with roughly $250 of that spent on the actual goods, I don't know if I would go. I would probably tell myself, "If I don't go, then I can't actually get these doujinshi. :( But if I do go, then I'd be spending $1100 for x stories when I could have spent...

    Motion Comics - Mangas in video format

    Sex Doubts and Myths

    "Women can experience multiple consecutive orgasms" is the claim. I would like to know what the limit is on this: as many as the woman has time for? or do most women peter out at around 5, 10 consecutive orgasms? I would also be very curious to know if this claim is only true for clitoral...

    That's really weird (that they embolden the ん) but it's not the first time I've seen romajists insist on a way to let ん stand out (e.g. 健一 being romanized as ken'ichi instead of just kenichi because of the fear that people will reverse transcribe it as けにち instead of けんいち). Still: 1) you're...
