Yo

I'm not a hardcore Otaku but my friends are really into it. Your are actually the first japanese otaku I ever "met" XD. So it would be interresting to talk to you.
The animes I liked the most were "NHK に ようこそ", "Golden Boy", "フリクリ",
"天元突破グレンラガン" and some others. I play GuiltyGear, Ragnarok Online and err Starcraft XD.

When I watch animes I also think about all the work and efforts they've put in. I also think of the guys who actually wrote the scenario and like how they thought about what feeling they wanted to give with the anime. I feel the same about video games, the musicians, the game designers, the programmers...

Thanks for the messages and PMs. Please wait patiently for replying, those who gave me PM. I've been replying to each of PMs little by little after work.

It's 4 am morning in Japan. Horrible sweltering night woke me up. Mmm hot...
So here's one more question briefly. Could anyone tell me your comment? (Or, should I better to separate from this thread?)

How often do you get and read Manga books? How much cost for them?

I'd been in Australia before, so I think the prices of books in Japan are cheaper than in American and Europe countries.
Those are sold for 500-1000 yen ( about $5-10 ). You may find your favorite books selling 100 yen ($1) at secondhand shop.

Hmm, still muggy. This is called "熱帯夜(ねったいや)". There's same title song in The Yellow Monkeys'.

Thanks.

I love Malice Mizer and the Pillows. I hadn't heard of the Pillows until I watched the anime FLCL, and then I fell in love with the Pillows. I may go listen to them now actually. Ha.

You made me realize how ignorant I can be when it comes to anime. xD I never really went in that deep when looking at manga or watching anime...but now I just may do that.

How often do I get manga books? Hmmm...it depends. Usually my friends and I just share books, but I usually go on a manga shopping trip once or twice a month, unless I stumble upon little sales on manga. In that case, I buy them like I am on drugs. I just can't stop.

Books usually range from $7 - $15 in my area. Unless I stumble upon one of those sales, where I can usually get books from $3 - $8.
