One of my favorite students wants to be a mangaka. She's still in junior high, but I told her I support her and her dream 100% and if she ever wanted to talk or needed help, to come to me. She looked like she was gonna cry. I don't think anybody's ever told her that!
She be guud at the arts. I think she draws doujin as well.

You'd be surprised at how little support kids like that will get sometimes, especially from their family (tiger moms, a-sian not b-sian, etc). Probably meant a lot to her.One of my favorite students wants to be a mangaka.

This is amazing. Im afraid Im just not strong enough to watch it.

It's hard for kids here sometimes, especially when they have dreams that are considered outside of the norm.
As the outsider in their life so to speak, all I can ever hope to do is try to let them know that they're not alone. I tend to tell them about how I was formerly a paid entertainment/film/anime journalist because it shows them that there are people out there doing what they love.
She's been saying she wanted to be a mangaka since she was 12, and now that she's 15 and still working at it, I'm inclined to believe her 100%. Kids gotta decide pretty quickly around these parts.
Of course, the teachers would probably scold me hardcore if they found out I was telling students shit like that. XD
So messed up. It's hard to believe that there are people out there who can tell a kid to give up on their dreams with a straight face.It's hard for kids here sometimes, especially when they have dreams that are considered outside of the norm.

Stories like these make me regret giving up on being a teacher, but then I remember that I probably would have been terrible.

Oh hey, I remember you telling that story on RSG. That was you, right? lolWhenever I have to give a closing/goodbye speech, I tend to reference anime/manga monologues about dreams and friendship etc. So I'll end up talking about following your dreams and afterwards the teachers'll be like "That was a very American speech! We would never say anything like that!"
So I respond with a sad face and high five the closest kid. >.>

So bad.
I had a few teachers in high school that basically said as much, and one that even went as far as to say "face it, you're a bunch of kids in a poor rural school and you're never going to amount to anything in life so at least become a teacher like me so you can be tenured and guaranteed some form of employment." While I imagine that unconventional career paths are extremely strongly discouraged in Japan compared to most other westernized civilizations, it does happen elsewhere.
I went to college to be a teacher and I've been unemployed since the moment I graduated, over two years ago. FML
Hidamari Sketch x365 2
The first half was about Chika, so I didn't like it. In the second half, they take a look back at the previous episode (or the day that it took place on) when the pairs met. This was better.
And. then. Chika. is. focused. on. again.
Don't do this to me, Hidamari.

Being the teacher is like the worst thing ever. Career suicide.
Even here, with one of the strongest teaching unions in the world, teachers are facing a wage-freeze.
My sister's in a similar position. I'm trying to get her to get her substitute teaching license, but something about subbing makes her really anxious.I went to college to be a teacher and I've been unemployed since the moment I graduated, over two years ago. FML
Ouran High School Host Club 25-26
Eh, I wasn't really feeling this ending. The show had been carefully and organically building up character development and subplots, only to suddenly throw that all out for forced, artificial drama. The way the new character was thrown into the mix and the behind-the-scenes machinations that surrounded her appearance were unbelievable. The events felt rushed and the dramatic climax was frankly silly, and not in a good way. AlthoughIt was good that they tried to tie it into Tamaki and Kyoya's family situations - certainly the backstory episode immediately prior to this was quite well done - but the contrived nature of the scenario prevented them from drawing the proper emotional impact out of those situations. I did like the silhouettes in Tamaki's backstory sequence in episode 25 - shades of Utena there.Tamaki throwing himself off the bridge into Haruhi's arms was suitably romantic.
Apparently this ending is anime-original and it shows. Not as problematic as some BONES endings, certainly, but still not as satisfying as it should have been.
Other than that, I really like the show. The characters are colorful and charming. The comedy is well-timed and consistently successful. The storyboarding is generally creative, and the visuals as lively as they should be. The weak digital art does end up holding the show back, unfortunately - as much as CG is the big pariah around here, I think the stark blandness of the early digital look is a bigger pet peeve for myself. That did seem to get a bit better during the latter half the show, though.
Overall, a well-made show which I had tons of fun with and would certainly recommend to anyone, with a caveat about the end.
Sounds like a failed Madoka Magica. lolLame generic fantasy shit that tries to huff the fumes of Slayers but manages to become agonizingly boring within minutes.
Oh, I already know that I fucked up my life. Why else do you think I spend all day on GAF? hahah.
Well, when you have to write a non-ending to accommodate the manga...Yeah, the ending felt off. In circumstances like these I'd prefer a lack of one to what we got here. But the rest of the show was so enjoyable that it's easy to look past it.
Just looked this up... Shinbo + JC Staff?!
What are you talking about? Chika is great!
But if you really don't like her, you should be pleased to know that she doesn't show up in the rest of the season, except for maybe one cell phone call.
(And while nothing will top the first episode, there are some really good episodes to come.)
Goddamn it firehawk, why must you edit in my pre-edit.Well, when you have to write a non-ending to accommodate the manga...
Jesus. lolANN lists Satoshi Kon as a key animator in the second episode too.
Hahaha.Goddamn it firehawk, why must you edit in my pre-edit.
Depends on how much soju I downed as I crash through the 2-1-3.Hahaha.
I feel like I've done this to you a few times now. Please don't choke me like the Korean dudes on K-town! Sorry!

Teach in Asia. If you have a teaching degree, being a part of the real school system in the HK is money.

Psycho-Pass is confirmed to be a 2-cour series, running for 22 episodes. OMG!!
All hail the prince of K-town!Depends on how much soju I downed as I crash through the 2-1-3.
The 213 is a different kind of rough. lolMan, you gotta watch more Korean movies if you feel like choking is the worst thing a Korean could do to you out of revenge.
Just ask Ryouga or like the half-dozen Japanese based English teachers here. I'm sure they'd help!I've been given a teaching offer in Japan, but I just can't take it up for the time being due to some circumstances.Also I know fuck all about actual Japanese culture and would likely get myself killed within days of making the trip, lol
Hey, just remember that if you end up like the guy who went missing for like six months on gaf before turning up to say he was going to the gym, we wouldn't take six months to go internet detective on you. We'd take five and a half.I've been given a teaching offer in Japan, but I just can't take it up for the time being due to some circumstances.Also I know fuck all about actual Japanese culture and would likely get myself killed within days of making the trip, lol
