Hey guys, name's Metaler. Or just Mets, Meta, or what have you! I've been registered in these forums for a while now, but I never managed to post anything, much less write an introduction! So yeah, I'm your average guy, studying linguistics in college and generally just lazying around, haha. I've been interested in anime and manga ever since I was a little brat, when I watched DBZ, Pokemon and Digimon. Around my first year of high school, I discovered visual novels after the Tsukihime anime was dubbed here, and I found out it was based on one. I had already heard that the anime was terribad, so I decided to try out the VN and I was hooked. Loved it to death, and it's a memorable classic to me. Afterwards, I tried out Yume Miru Kusuri, and shiiiiit son, that turned out to be one of my personal favorites. I still remember Aeka's route like it was yesterday. Later, I tried out some other classics like Fate/Stay Night and Sharin no Kuni, most of which I still have very fond memories of. Lately, I've been trying to expand to trying out VNs in Japanese, so about a year and a half ago, I started studying Japanese after finding Tae Kim's guide and Aaeru's blog post. Ever since then, I gotta say my Japanese improved a lot... At least in terms of reading, haha. I finished all of the Sono Hanabira games, having understood most of what was writter, and I'm currently playing through Dracu-Riot. I also tried out Rui wa Tomo wo Yobu, but damn, that's too hard for me. But I'll read it someday! I ain't gonna leave that adorable Rui waiting forever. Apart from that, I just generally try to take it easy as much as possible. I'm pretty lazy, but at least I don't let it get to me, haha. I love reading, and I generally enjoy pretty much any kind of story. I don't have many preferences, even within the realm of eroge... I just stay away from rape games and I have very little interest in nukige, mostly (though I did try out Bishoujo Mangekyou...) I'm also interested in philosophy, and I've been pretty interested in Taoism lately. Good vibes, dude. I love easy-going and peaceful thoughts. Aaaand, well, that's it, I suppose. I'm sure we'll get to know each other better with time. Aw hell, I'm just blathering about like crazy. Cheers, and take it easy!

You know what the worst is? The OST is pretty damn good, therefore you can't even completely deny the existence of the anime. I actually played a part of Tsukihime with the anime OST instead of the VN OST, cuz the VN OST quickly becomes a bit boring. Now, a Tsukihime anime remake after the VN remake... by Ufotable... That would be a blessing.

I can kinda relate why Tsukihime fans are in denial with the existence of that anime..

I was thinking earlier when I was in bed, I think the radio host I was listening to was right in that, it's not the people's fault when they think for 270 years copyright was monopoly, and then the last 40 years it suddenly shifted to 'property'. Because people strive to be good and to be law-abiding citizens, and they were never taught that some laws can be treasonous, they follow it thinking they are doing the right thing. So in that sense it is not the people who are being tricked that is wrong. It's their ruling elites, the heads of corporations & their government & special interests who taught them to obey the wrong law that is wrong. Well when I write posts, they are almost always intended for my viewers, they're not really there to convince the entrenched people. Those people you will never get. It's the people who are indifferent about these issues, those are the ones you can get. I think it is the long years of surviving the previous (and utterly disgusting) community that made me really aggressive. It used to be that you basically have to just plain out attack them, because they literally are willing to spread lies about you if they can't beat you intellectually. There is nothing more despicable than the previous community who engage in rampant gossiping and vandalism from top to bottom, and these activities are helmed by a group of men! These people are not men. Real men do not do these things.

You could say that Little Busters is now... ... a little busted.
