Concept associated with said person.

:cajun -> Cuteness or "HNNNNGGH"

:firehawk -> Mono no aware

:chet -> Breasts, large breasts, and overwhelmingly large breasts

:sdburton came to be the other day for anything close to yuri. I approve.

f+2 all day, every day.

#Tekken

did someone say tekken

yessss

Also because this tag makes it totally awkward nao.

It's like chatting up a party then turning to the guy and saying "oh yeah, you're not invited."

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Fair 'nuff, but on a forum where perspectives & topics of discussion skew heavily male-oriented, I don't think there is anything untoward about assuming a predominantly male membership, or even assuming someone claiming to be female is lying- given that it would have been preferable, especially until recently, in most cases not to admit that. It also makes it ideal to "hide" and purposely avoid correcting those assumptions, since being female alters perception/treatment and attracts several varieties of un/wanted attention; this partly is why I never bother(ed) to correct people on misused pronouns or w/e.

Real You didn't last very long did it, i-d? Is that why?

I will make :billiechu mean yuri

No! I'm actually a lesbian ;~;

 

[madp]

No! I'm actually a lesbian ;~;

:billiechu can just be the 3D equivalent of :sdburton!

 

[Hitokage]

I will make :billiechu mean yuri

No! I'm actually a lesbian ;~;

But which one of you has the most intense, burning passion for yuri? Even when it becomes utterly self-defeating and tragic?

 

[Branduil]

Wow, I have a lot of catching-up to do.

They Were Eleven

 

[NewFresh]

Only if we're all in cosplay.

I refuse to be Lupin.

Fuck all of you.

 

[Emitan]

Self-defeating yuri is the only true yuri. It is suffering.

:billiechu can just be the 3D equivalent of :sdburton!

But this is anime! No 3D allowed!

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

It means you don't actually exist.

 

[Hitokage]

I refuse to be Lupin.

Fuck all of you.

LOL

 

[trejo]

I refuse to be Lupin.

Fuck all of you.

You can't refuse to be what you already are, silly.

 

[SDBurton]

yessss

Not only did you bring up Tekken music, you brought up one of the coolest soundtracks from the series. +1 to you!

No! I'm actually a lesbian ;~;

That means nothing really. Yuri can be appreciated by anyone, whether they're a girl themselves or not.

You can be my 2nd in command if you want.

Don't forget Mio has a personality :T

I'm not exactly like Mio, for example I don't get scared as easily as she does.
She would probably be the closest approximation of the girls to me though. I've never actually done one of those "Which character are you like?" type things in reference to K-On! if one exists.

But Mio isn't Jun or Ui....

I think all the girls are okay in their own ways really. I don't really hate any of them or anything.

Only if we're all in cosplay.

Is this just so you can see AnimeGaf's meido InfiniteNine in his meido outfit again?

Oh!

You're focusing on the fact Mio is my favorite right?

And talent! Lots of talent.

Right, I forgot who I was talking to. Also is this supposed to be a Sailor Moon English dub reference to Makoto or do you say it like that all the time in general?

I might post in one thread for every fifty that I lurk, and I can't remember what a single realpic person looks like! If some internet stalker somewhere ends up with a 100x120 picture of my face in a creepy folder on their computer, I'd probably just feel flattered that someone thought I wasn't horrifically ugly, hahah.

I suppose that might be true. Personally I'm still not comfortable with it.

You do know what :chet means right? You just gave it away.

Or did I?

I would say I'm a combination of Yui and Mugi. I love cute things and cakes, but I also love yuri and I can be quiet like Mugi because I'm shy and introverted.

Yes and yes.

What happens when an anime manages to combine all three?

 

[Hitokage]

Or did I?

Well, you wouldn't be the first AnimeGAF regular to be in transition then.

 

[survivor]

K-On?

 

[madp]

I know that :cajun + :chet = :uchip, but throwing :firehawk in? These are things that man was never meant to know.

 

[Emitan]

it's those damn girly men corrupting our youth!

 

[Chet Rippo]

K-ON!

They Were Eleven

So was this worth watching? I'm not sure. It does have a certain amount of historical interest, as it is the only anime to be adapted from the works of legendary shoujo manga artist Moto Hagio, one of the founders of the field. I should say that, for all my issues, there was one particular plot thread surrounding Tada which I found particularly satisfying. In the end, though, I feel it doesn't live up to its promise and I would not recommend it.

Have you checked out the manga for comparison or rather, to see if the source material is superior?

 

[jman2050]

K-On?

K-ON!

Chipmunk faces aren't cute.

 

[Emitan]

RIP
30JUL12 to 31JUL12

but i was :billiechu for you!

Chipmunk faces aren't cute.

Just having a YuruYuri avatar doesn't mean you get a free ride to say anything.

 

[Ultimadrago]

:icarus happened once, I was so proud. And then it was never seen again.

But what did it mean?

 

[NewFresh]

LOL

Jerks!

 

[Chet Rippo]

Chipmunk faces aren't cute.

But it has cajun's stamp of approval, so it must be cute.

 

[KO Traveling Hobo]

And then TL brought balance to the force.

Translator's note: TL means shonen buttlust. It does not feel pity or remorse or fear, and it cannot be stopped unless banned.

 

[Hitokage]

Exactly.

 

[Narag]

But it has cajun's stamp of approval, so it must be cute.

Cajun thinks everything is cute though.

 

[Jex]

edit: Oh my, another They Were Eleven post. So many elevens!

AnimeGAFers watchine anime because of Hyouka is a little bit like otaku visiting the town that an anime is set in, except it's a little bit more productive.

AKB0048 1 Directors Cut

Yep, this show still pretty much owns but now with a few extra scenes added that I don't really remember being in the original episode, most notably of which is one that lays on the Yuri pretty thick! The CG also seemed to look better so maybe they touched that up a bit for the BD's.

One thing I did notice was that

Spoiler

the girls already had the hearts on their hair and eyes even before the concert, Chieri makes sense given that she's seen one before but that doesn't explain the other three unless this sick disease is not necessarily spread via concerts. It kinda conflicts with what we learnt from that other set of girls from that other planet but maybe the concert there was the final push needed to trigger a reaction.

So, what you're saying is, Cajun doesn't discriminate enough.

 

[survivor]

Cajun thinks everything is cute though.

He called some cute wannabe abomination from Sengoku Collection a failure or something. Cajun has some standards when it comes to cute

 

[Narag]

So, what you're saying is, Cajun doesn't discriminate enough.

I choose to avoid using that term with someone who tends to get banned for racism.

 

[Uchip]

So, what you're saying is, Cajun doesn't discriminate enough.

thats an understatement

Oh damn, where's that awful .gif when you need it?

I just assume everyone is their avatar.

What do you do when people rapidly or semi-rapidly change their avatar.

That's true I suppose. Maybe I should have just left the whole gender thing alone...Now Chet is my biggest fan. I guess it doesn't matter, I like Chet.

I refuse to be Lupin.

Fuck all of you.

I don't understand this. Probably something that happened even before my reading days?

Well, you wouldn't be the first AnimeGAF regular to be in transition then.

I don't think I understand this either honestly.

 

[Soma]

Multiple-personality disorder!

I change mine way too often.

 

[dakkumauji]

Hah, you should see what he's been posting in the manga thread.

I can only say you guys brought it upon yourself.

Spoiler

I need to pay more attention to the manga thread

 

[madp]

Hah, you should see what he's been posting in the manga thread.

Me several hours ago: hey, I guess I'll duck into the manga thread for this week's One Piece impres--

 

[Hitokage]

Emunoz looks like Lupin in real life.

I don't think I understand this either honestly.

A few of us are MtF.

Reading reactions to his posts is such fun.
