Kenshin_sama

I didn't even know there was a VN about r/visualnovels. Btw, you forgot to add in this masterpiece. https://vndb.org/v870

It's not so much that I'd never go to Japan, but I'd never live there. It's probably still a good place to take a vacation.

You're living the dream, huh? Yeah, I'm not so sure Japan would be the right place for me to live. I just can't see myself adjusting to their lifestyle.

Happy belated, Funya!

I've been putting an unhealthy number of hours into Summoners War lately, so I would definitely appreciate that. Especially considering how Com2us (the developers) won't give a clear answer as to whether or not they'll allow the use of emulators, though it doesn't seem they're going hardball on users at all. But what also sucks about emulators is that they're too resource heavy to allow for gameplay recording, which is something I've been wanting to do lately. Btw, Granblue Fantasy does have a PC version if anyone's interested in that, although I kinda lost interest due to the lengthy grinds and lack of an auto mode. Summoners War is grindy too, but the auto mode makes it tolerable, and the PVP is so much fun!

Lol, I might start watching this series again. Didn't like the first one that much, but I'm willing to give it another shot.

Lol, I got the email for this too. I wouldn't buy that bundle for a dollar! Edit: I gotta say though, the descriptions on these games are gold!

There's always that one guy. At least he's honest about it, lol. I took this screenshot from Doom & Destiny. It's a fun RPG parody game with oldschool Final Fantasy gameplay mechanics. I got the mobile version so I can play it on the road, but you can get this on Steam too. And no worries, it's not f2p.

It's still the 5th where I live, so you're good. Thank you!

Thank you! I wish the best for you as well.

I haven't played TWEWY yet; just randomly stumbled on this. Kinda interested in trying this game out now.

There's a lot more text than there is gameplay in BlazBlue's story mode, and it does have consistent narration. Although I do agree with you on Touhou, lol. Definitely the farthest thing from a VN unless you're talking about fan games.

Ya know, I think these two should try getting into more collab work. They compliment each other so well on stage.

Nailed it right on the head!

Nope, not me! I usually delete a VN shortly after I finish it, unless it has really awesome H scenes that I might be inclined to 're-visit' afterwards. So far Kamidori is the only VN I kept installed for a while after finishing it, lol. There was some damn good H in that one!

Gurren Lagann!? Dude, nice! It's an okay watch when you're first starting out, but it grows massively in scale the further you go. And the end of the series is so mind-blowingly epic in proportion that nothing comes even remotely close to reaching its level of absurdity. It's like the creators decided to break all the laws of physics a thousand times over and go all out in writing a completely outrageous story. Gurren Lagann does a phenomenal job of not taking itself seriously. Also, don't be surprised if you come out of this with more hair on your chest. It just kinda happens.

Anyone else remember this song from DDR Supernova? Lol, okay, maybe not. It's a fun song.

*sigh* If only it were that easy. Why must life be so cruel!

Well, for me the obsession took root when I was 5 and watching Dragonball Z and Sailor Moon on Toonami, and it was when I first watched Rurouni Kenshin that my love for anime seriously started to kick in. Kenshin's philosophy on peaceful resolution and his vow to never kill resonated strongly with me, and it was the first time I felt an attachment to a fictional character. Games like Final Fantasy X and Kingdom Hearts 1/2 reinforced this to an even greater degree with their brilliant design, immersive setting, and rich story and characters. Sadly enough though, my experience with otaku entertainment was very limited earlier on in my life, and I was only able to consume it through television and console games. Oddly enough, I had discovered Clannad on an anime-on-demand channel, but I wasn't able to watch Afterstory until I had a computer to watch it on. After joining the military and having the money to buy a PC of my own, it felt like I had a whole world of anime at my fingertips, and I proceeded to watch anime like Toradora, K-on, Key adaptions, and just about anything that came off as unbelievably moe. It was a very magical time for me. After about a year of watching anime through streaming sites, I was eventually encouraged by chatango users to create a MAL account, which would become my gateway to the more niche parts of otaku fandom. When it comes down to it, I'd say I have a lot of common traits that define me as a softcore weaboo. I cringe at the idea of casuals only watching anime with English dubs. I cringe even harder when they've only watched mainstream anime. I've had several thoughts of buying cute anime girl posters, figures, etc, but neither my budget nor my room space allow it. Plus, I don't even want to imagine how much my brother would harass me if he found out I had cute girl figures, lol. I've bought pocky several times just because I've seen it in anime, and I would buy melon bread in a heartbeat if I ever saw it on the shelves. I have attempted to learn Japanese, but failed miserably. I have used weeb terminology in online conversation several times, though I have yet to do so irl. I honestly thought Go! Go! Nippon! was an interesting experience because it had cute girls explaining Japanese culture. I use Pixiv as a source for many of my desktop backgrounds and profile pics, I'm subscribed to Waifu Wednesdays on Youtube, and I use to take my reputation in the anime community very seriously. Hell, one time I even made a comment on SAO that got pinned in the Nyaa chatbox and felt like I seriously accomplished something. Yeah, I was kinda full of myself, lol. And maybe I still kinda am, but definitely not to the extent I use to be. I wouldn't consider myself a full-blown Japanese enthusiast though since I've spent very little time researching its culture and history, and only made assumptions based on what I saw in anime. But I imagine that's pretty much on the same level as most other internet weaboos. Eventually I came to realize how my obsessive behavior is the leading cause of my anxiety issues, and I've spent the last couple years trying to tone it down and regain some form of sanity. It hasn't worked out as well as I would like, but I'm getting somewhere. Still having difficulty starting a social life outside of the internet, which is kinda hard since I'm not into sports and my interests in western entertainment mainly extend to superhero shows/movies and niche RPGs.

Push them too far and they might become mass murderers.

It probably has more to do with how he perceived his favorite character than anything based on religion. I imagine it'd be similar to finding out your gf is a prostitute, except in this case it's a fictional character. It's a bit of an exaggerated response though, lol.

Randomly found this on Pixiv. Been a while since I've changed my wallpaper, so I decided to crop the black bars a little and set it. Source: https://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=9427&from_sid=2748886235 Cropped and resized for 1080p monitors: http://i.imgur.com/m0ZHOw6.png
