Definition

Some people get confused or don't really know the complete definition for "Anime" or "Otaku" is. So here are the definitions to help you out!

Anime: a style of animation originating in Japan. It is sometimes referred to by the portmanteau Japanimation. Anime is characterized by stark, colorful graphics and stylized, colorful images depicting vibrant characters in a variety of different settings and story-lines, aimed at a wide range of audiences. Anime may be broadcast on television, distributed on media such as DVDs or published as console and computer games. Anime is usually influenced by Japanese comics known as manga.


Otaku: a variety of geek (or an overly obsessed fanboy / fangirl) specializing in anime and manga.

I'm like OBSSESSED. omgggg

[talcumpowder]

Stupid pink ink. -curses about crazy shoujo manga at Barnes and Noble printed in bright pink ink- How can anyone read that?!
Yeah. You people all suck. I live in Harbor City. We're losers who live in a La that's not LA. And we're not a city and not near a harbor. So why are we called Harbor City? Beats me.
Anyways....
NEWEST OBSESSION~!!! XD Doggies and knights and ninjas that are COOL (unlike Naruto. =P) and angels and pretty, ripped cavemen. Yummy. Okay. Shutting up. -is a hopeless weirdo- XD But... The knights are so... Bish! I wanna break into nosebleed mode. Too bad I'm immune-ish. -sigh- Reminds me. Need to buy Earthian 3 still. But maybe in August. Then I can buy 3&4 at the same time. Or maybe at AX. Cheaper. -coughs- I'm supposed to be working on my Japanese portfolio. Instead I'm on CB talking about anime. Can you say nerd?

[*jooleeah*]

NERD!
just kidding reili =) <3


People don't like Naruto anymore. :[ *tear*

[HelplessCry]

i umm...still like it... even though ive been missing episodes x3

[*islandgirl4eva*]

Reili, are you talking about the Harlequin manga? I tried reading it, and it totally threw me off! I had to squint or move the book back. Not good!

Julia, Ai Yazawa is a genius. Keep reading Nana. You'll fall in love with everyone EXCEPT Shoji. XD

[HelplessCry]

OHH and Sachiko! grrr i dispise her...all like ohh i dont do that stuff...and yet she does. pffft shes so tiny too...if i was Nana Osaka i'd kick her in the face when i had that chance.

[talcumpowder]

Oh that's what it was called? Well, see, the cover art was pretty. -see how superficial she is?- Sh, you stupid action voice! Anyway, it was pretty. So I picked it up, totally oblivious to the little sticker that said "PRINTED IN PINK INK". It burned. Then I tried to read the purple one and it didn't help any. @.@ So I went off to find Princess Ai (I still haven't read 3), but they didn't have it. So I came back and read a random manga. XD I don't even remember what it was called...
I told my friend NANA was about lesbians just so he'd read it. I still need to go find it. Pretty artwork. Yes, action voice... I don't care how crappy the storyline is, artwork and pretty boys are what matters. -eyes water- I want Skyscrapers of Oz for exactly that reason... -thinks for a second- No wonder my mom doesn't like the anime I watch... I end up drooling over the bish.
Like when I was watching the Youko vs. Karasu fight! XD I paused the DVD just to stare at Kurama's sexy-ness. Then again, I did that during PoTC too. But Johnny Depp. Pirates are sexy. I need to find a pirate-boy anime. No, not One Piece... They aren't bish enough for me (although I like the show...).

[*jooleeah*]

^
I don't like One Piece. >_>

[*islandgirl4eva*]

Reili...are you suggesting that NANA has a crappy storyline? Good God, woman. You are insane!

I keed.

But I do love that story. ANNNNND the artwork. And Shin and Nobu. Yes, indeed.

I've never watched One Piece or Naruto. *dodges pitchforks and various farm yard vegetables*

[F_L_I_P]

one piece may no look much but it got me liking it little by little.

[*jooleeah*]

^
Yeah, my older brother loves One Piece. Hahaha.

NAOMI! I can't believe you've never watched Naruto.

I need more scans on Nana. AHHH. x]

[*islandgirl4eva*]

Haha. Idk, everyone started watching it and I hate jumping on the bandwagon, so I just decided not to watch.

BTW, I freaking win, today. I got my new issue of ShojoBeat. YAY!

[*Indiscriminate Soul*]

Sorry I haven't been here in a long time. I skimmed through the posts, and I'm still confused what's going on. What exactly are we supposed to write about in here?

Here's a new topic if you're interested: Which anime character do you enjoy drawing the most? Which style of anime do you like the most?
I like drawing Kenshin. I like Nabuhiro Watsuki's way of drawing. I also like CLAMP's style of drawing. Both Watsuki and CLAMP are especially impressive in the details they go into when drawing their characters and settings.

I posted some new pictures in my picture gallery if anyone's interested. the last two pictures (on page 4) are onse I drew freshmen year, but the last one on page 3 is a more recent picture. You can see them by going to Periscopic Dome below. Thanks for taking the time to look.

Hi Sue! :D In this specific topic, we just talk about anything about anime/manga. It's basically a chitchat topic that helps the members of Anime Otaku to get to know each other =) I'm sure Naomi [islandgirl4eva] will explain that more in depth because she's more involved here. =)

I enjoy drawing Sakura and Syaoran. They're so cute! :3


OMG so adorable.

[*islandgirl4eva*]

OMG. New issue of ShojoBeat! And there is an interview with HYDE!!!! <333

[rainnydaiis]

Hehe!! Oh yeah!!!! Sakura and Shaoran are such a cute couple.. But sakura is mine !!!! GRRR XD

[*jooleeah*]

xD You can keep her. I get Syaoran.

I would get so jealous of them while reading the manga though.

[HelplessCry]

iunno...but julians true form is pretty hott... HES MINE! DIBBS DIBBS DIBBS!!

[rainnydaiis]

Sakura is mine.. but I would be considered a pedifile... so hmmm -__-;;

[talcumpowder]

I draw pretty stick figures. XD With pretty red hair. -nods- And no. I didn't say anything about a crappy storyline. It was in refrence to... -searches for the manga- Damn. -.-U Saa... It had pretty artwork. I love pretty artwork. I wasn't reading it, more like... Drooling over the pretty artwork. My friend gave me Kurama pictures so I'd shut up. We all know Reili LOVES to ramble. XD -does a little jig- Woooooooooooo.... Yeah. But really. Nana looked good. I shall see the movie this summer. Download it somewhere or something. And I am insane. -nods- We all know that. I can't make a post in here without talking about bish. Bish are hawtt. With two t's. Duh.
I got a shiney penny today! Mwahahaha... How that is related to anime... Gravitation! XD -she means Ryuichi, of course-

[happyfaere]

I WANT TO JOIN!! ^_^

[*Indiscriminate Soul*]

I've noticed some people's usernames have their real names by them in brackets. Could I have mine in brackets too?

--Sue

[rainnydaiis]

Ok when naomi or katie or the starter of this topic comes by they'll add that next to the user name. We added the user names so we wouldn't have to call each other by account names.

[*islandgirl4eva*]

Alrighty, Sue. I changed it

[*Indiscriminate Soul*]

Thanks! ^_^
