Well, I surely love anime and manga, but appreciate every kind of quality animation production...
I lked several later Disney productions, especially Pixar's movies (The Incredibles was really good!!) and several other titles, like "Ice Age", "Iron Giant" and Don Bluth's movies as well...
I love Sci-Fi (Star Trek series rules!!), horror (The Ring was quite interesting), Action (The Rock...rocks!!!) ... well, any kind of good movie; Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, Matrix... :)

I love videogames too, from the first things like Moon Cresta in the 80ies to the newest masterpieces like Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill and tons of other titles!

...and it's really fun to play with anime-based games: one shot, two kills!!  :)

Here's a website you can try for learning Japanese. I haven't read it myself, but it looks promising. ;D
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 06, 2007, 04:20:19 AM
I'm learning japanese from a 80's Tv show that teaches you how to survive in Tokyo...

One thing I learned is asking for directions... That I think it would really help me if I got lost... The bad and hard part is understanding the answer... LoL

Q: Tokyo Crown Plaza Hotel, doko desu ka?
A: Huh? Tokyo??? We're in Abu Dhabi...

;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!

Wow, you sure have a nasty sense of direction there Falling. XD

Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 06, 2007, 04:48:19 AM
Lets just say that I even get lost at home sometimes... and my apartment is not that big... LoL


Note: I think I need medical help...   :/ :@

oh my goodness....
i always forget what i was about to do in the kitchen when i get there...
suddenly i'm there and i ask myself "what am i doing here??" i go back and then i remember then i got to the kitchen and forget [again]
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 07:09:40 AM
I have something like that.

I'm on my way to my room sometimes and I turn left into my bathroom, then I ask "What the hell am I doing here"... O_o
Maybe I'm just stupid. xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 07:12:20 AM
lol its like Dory [from nemo] she had the worst memory ever!!
xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 07:14:04 AM
Its not exactly a memory thing... I just go into a room that I don't need to on the way to another. :-\

The funny thing is when my mom is behind me after I've told her I was going to my room. xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: janus on August 06, 2007, 07:26:05 AM
I am like the worst person to remember names, I have to have funny/interesting thing about the person to remember it. Sometimes I don't ask again for the persons name, and it really gets harder to try to ask as time passes
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 07:29:12 AM
you should try writing their names on you hand and discretely looking at it when they dont see
OR
you could ask them to put their names in their foreheads xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 07:31:16 AM
It took me nearly the whole year to learn the name of some of my classmates, and I saw them every weekday at least...So i guess I can say I have a worse memory. xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 07:33:21 AM
lol i never learned everyone's name in my hall [summer camp] even if i spent three weeks straight with them....

well at least They learn Your name right?
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: janus on August 06, 2007, 07:36:34 AM
I'll stick by writing their names on their forehead or I could give people "HELLO my name is" sticker and ask them to fill them out
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 07:48:15 AM
lol!! or you could ask them for their ID until they are sick and tired of you asking the same question that they wont mind you calling them "hey you"
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 06, 2007, 12:27:54 PM
The thing I think its funny is when you forget your own girlfriend name... LoL

Another thing I avoid is telling people my name... because I hate when 2 min after i tell them they say... "What's your name again?"

Btw, I have a file with all the info regarding passwords and usernames... and I have to check it in a daily basis...  :& LoL
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: janus on August 06, 2007, 05:53:07 PM
That's the worst thing you can do forget your girlfriend's name and to top it off trying to guess it be mentioning other girl's name, you'll have your last day marked there O___o
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Cosmic King on August 06, 2007, 05:55:28 PM
Rejoice,lumaholics,about 98 % of mankind has that kind of problems,no matter how hard we try,we will tend to forget vital data (could it be a plan of Forgotten?),it only requires patience to remember

Very true Cosmic, we are not Charlie from Rain man by having photographic memory, LOL
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 06, 2007, 09:08:19 PM
I do have photographic memory, but I think my brain likes image editing. :-\
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Cosmic King on August 06, 2007, 09:48:23 PM
Probably it puts an importance level to some of yer memories,so that explains why some times u forget something,it is way too hidden
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: watashi on August 06, 2007, 09:53:26 PM
thats very useful skill

in class teachers say: "do you have photographic memory as to not need to take notes???!!"
so i take out my notebook and i start drawing anime characters xD
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: FallinG_StaR on August 07, 2007, 01:06:12 AM
And then you go home and you say... "Damn I forgot to put film on the camera..." the result is quite obvious... LoL
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!

The term is lumaholics,lady watashi

Anyways,you are right,mendo doesnt lend money unless we speak his language:violence
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!

We are going to have to beat mendo at his own game. So that we would lend us money.

Everyone get their samurai swords and personal huge armies. We're going to a PARTY!

(The thing is that Mendo's personal game is too rich for the average lumaholic. He likes to bet high...)

Related to names, I've got only onething to say... Just shoot every damn name you can recall, and only one will stick to that person, or thing.

hmm, in the same line too :-\

could you rephrase that Dark?
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on August 30, 2007, 02:14:04 AM
Dark, you let us all confused.
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Koroshiya Megane 13 on August 30, 2007, 04:08:19 AM
I think DarkDevil is talking about a "carpet-bombing" name-recollection strategy. If you say all the (thousands) of names you can remember, chances are the correct name will be in there somewhere. However, if you don't recall the name at all, this strategy doesn't work because you won't even be able to say it...

Even then, if you still can't associate the person (or thing ?) with the name, you'll have to repeat all the names all over again... ;D
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 30, 2007, 05:43:45 AM
So it's like having four choices and picking all of them??
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: janus on August 30, 2007, 05:57:39 AM
Well it sounds kinda feeble strategy if you ask me. it's like letting your universal control find the proper code for the tv, really 1 in a 1000 chance....lame

forgetting someones name is unavoidable in some way, and we'll have to live with it
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on August 30, 2007, 07:52:49 AM
There's always the choice of calling him dude or the rest of your lifes. That's what I do. ;D

Interesting method,lh

Anyways i guess most of us would only call him dude or darkdevil,he doesnt mind at all
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: janus on August 30, 2007, 11:32:31 PM
once you are in the "hey dude" part there's no turning back, unless you hear someone calling him/her by their name, once you hear it devote yourself in learning it :P
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on August 31, 2007, 01:56:37 AM
It's so embarassing when you know someone but you can't remember her/his name. I hate when that happens. Mostly when I need to get the atention of somebody.

So,when ya forget names,what is yer method to gain attention,mademoiselle?
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on August 31, 2007, 06:56:08 PM
I just run to the person and touch her and tell her what I wanted to say. But if I can't reach the person I just do eye contact or send a note.

Good method,just always remember that sometimes when ya send notes in school you are risking to be caught by the teacher
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on September 02, 2007, 12:12:59 AM
I have lot of experience in doing that kind of stuff during the classtime.

Same here >:)
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on September 02, 2007, 01:48:16 AM
Lol. I have a special reputation while I'm at school. I have good grades but I don't like to be quiet paying atention to what the teacher is saying. I do all the homeworks and stuff but I talk so much during classtime! That's the reason why I am always alone in one desk in classes.
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Kroptik on September 10, 2007, 01:08:27 AM
I talked a lot, but I was very careful, so I was rarely caught. Also, the teachers always seemed to like me for some unknown reason, so I didn't have any problems. ;D

And no, I'm not a boot licker, if that's what you're thinking. :P
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: cata on September 11, 2007, 11:27:12 PM
The teachers liked me, too but it was because my grades were good. They just wanted my mouth shut. The teachers, usually, like me but I never like them. Well, there are always one teacher that I prefer but... they are too boring.
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!

I don't even know when my school will start, though I know its sometime in October. :P

Woot to the first university year. ;D
Title: Re: Not only anime!!!!
Post by: Forgotten_Lum on September 12, 2007, 08:53:50 PM
post-secondary schools always have weird starting days, my college starts september 4, so nothing was new for me,but i do have the option to do 3 semesters a year so i can have a really long summer, but then there is the university/college(it is both a university and college and the college is just another campus of my college) just down the street that starts about 2-3 weeks before me

My school will start on 17th September. Even with my classes I'll check the Forum at least one time each day.
as for that start date i would hate, my birthday is that day, happy b-day to me, now get to school, lol, i would really hate it

Geez... That's what I would call really BAD luck. But if you miss really your friends as I miss mines... it would be a good gift to stop missing them as you were missing them before. But in your B-day looking at an unpleased face of a teacher... it's so... it's so... I can't find the right word.

Sounds like going to College is fun though i'll eventually be there after I take a year or two off and just work so I have money to go to college and find a place in the area. Oh great i'm just thinking i'm some kind of Manga character.
