And I managed to draw xxlonelyhunterxx that I promised a loong time ago :0

Anyhow Japan was very nice, Amongst many things I got to play Street Fighter 4 for the first time, I won once but mostly got my arse kicked XD

Also I saw monkeys and snakes and huge wasps in the mountains. Apparently they also have small angry black bears. I had lots of strange expectations (due to much anime exposure) when I arrived, but it was totally different

I must have seen it a million times: take off your shoes like one does at home when you enter somewere, right? Still I manage to step on the floor in the ryokan with my shoes on :3 Gomenasai Kayo-san! >< Ah well.

I missed my chance to see a panda since it had died ;_; in Ueno zoo. R.I.P Ling Ling. I've never seen a panda so I really want to see one.

The Gibli museum in Mitaka was very cool, but hard for stupid gajins to get to since the only way was to type in a lot of kana in a strange Lawson-machine that printed tickets XD But we did it! I'm very proud of me and my friend Jens


I did endulge myself in otaku-bonanza stuff that I will talk about some other time XD


Well over and out for now.

With the new moe-wave (if you can call it that) that recently has reached our shores (we have shores here so it's just a figure of speech :3) I was wondering about what anime characters I really do like and why. For instance, what are the key characteristics that makes a character appeal to you? Is it how they behave? What they look like? Is it the world they are in? Perhaps the story?

Thinking out loud here:

Why does Saber from Fate/stay night fair better than Charlotte from Samurai showdown or Jeanne d'Arc from the PSP-game (with the same name) They all have an apperance composed of armour and blue and yellowish cloth

But it's only Saber that apparently sells like hot Haruhis(quote from dannychoo.com somewhere XD (if I remember correctly, maybe it's okay either way :3)). This is referring to figurines, I forgot to mention that. How do

they measure who is going to get figurinized in the first place? Does Saber have an otaku-appeal-impact of 9/10 or something?
8/10?

And they have to measure against some demographical traits too.. How many of the customers like things that are kawaii vs. things that are kakkoii?

Anyhow, I would like to know which ones are your top 3 favourite anime characters

Mine are as follows:

1.Yukari Sensei from Azumanga Daioh (for beeing the most evil character evarr XD and uh teacher fetish thingie. Yup.)

2.Jo Carpenter from Bakuretsu Tenshi (she is somewhat akeen to beeing a closet lesbian Clint Eastwood, you cant go wrong with that..)

3.Noda Megumi from Nodame Cantabile (wich reminds me of me in some wierd way)

I'll make a list of everyones opinions later and post them here next month

Hm, I made it about 7 months without buying a game.. I bought an eee-pc in july that contained various different ones. (did'nt know that at first ) ah well.

I've just gotten home from the Roskilde festival It was fun, lots of people and bands and stuff. I'm happy that we were a bit late in arriving there, thus putting up our tent on a field with cows far from the stage area - which resulted in a bit more sleep and an untrashed tent XD It was good because we had borrowed it :3

I have two webpage projects running at the same time (money) + a cource in c# (update brain), but when that is done I'm going to draw something again :0


ThNKY0 everyone for the 14k hits *bows*

I'm still sticking to my promise to NOT buy any games this year. A quarter of a year has past at least, yaay Recently, it seems that I've subsituted the lack of games with books which I hope is a good thing. You never hear about people that read too many books, like book addict syndrome vs. gaming disorder -(thingy) ah well..

Rather embarrasing but I'm starting to forget my kana, so I'm going to read my japanese-books every evening (note to self)



and....Vokaloid2 rules ^^

Hm, what does this "collect" button do?

Hm, this month I shook hands with Nobuo Uematsu in Stockholm, I still can't grasp that I've done that The distant worlds consert was amazing. Uematsu-san had white tabis on his feet And I gained otaku-status at anime-planet.com XD It's a good site because it helps out to find similar stuff to things one has seen.

Still waiting for an Alter - Jo from Bakuretsu tenshi. God I'm a degenerate XD I can buy one if I pay overprice on ebay ;_; Long live the cultural revolution.. I do fear for the day when these things become mainstream worries.

Merry x-mas everyone :0 When I manage to draw something that I think is better/more original than my last stuff I will post it.


I wish my lawn was emo. I have a hunters cap that I always wear that's -7 on the emo scale. I need to make up for that with a Dr. kitty bag or something..

over and out ..
