Yeah "Clannad: After Story" did that to me as well, such a good series isn't it? spoiler[ Well if you watch the recap episode it leaves on a positive note explaining the whole plot-line in greater detail. Cause to me the true ending episode left me unsatisfied with the fate of their family. But after watching the recap episode I was reassured that the trio was okay. ]

Fun facts about Otaku Rice Ball: Once at an anime convention I battled a pretty girl in a hand waving contest, It started at 12:00 am and ended at 5:00 am and I was wearing a mask the whole time and didn't say a word even at the end.


Sorry dude but that is pathetic... You didn't even talk to her!!??!! WTH is wrong with you! Even after being with her for 5 hours you didn't say a single word? Shame on you.

Hello, I'm new here! I just registered a few minutes ago.

Name: I'm a private, paranoid person, so I don't feel like sharing my real name here. It does start with the letter "J" though. Wink

Gender: Male

Location: Los Angeles, California

Marital Status: Single

Age: 21

Religion: Christian

Drink/Smoke: I don't drink, nor smoke, not habitually at least. I very rarely do have a drink, though, but just a partial serving.

Dislikes: I could go on about certain politicians and their politics...

Favorite anime: Cowboy Bebop, Lupin the Third

Favorite game of all time: GoldenEye 007 James Bond (Nintendo 64)

Fun facts about Lupin: Well, I will be as forthcoming as I can be when I say this: I have not watched too much anime, and I'm still not sure which ones are my favorites. I mostly ever enjoyed Cowboy Bebop and Lupin the Third on Adult Swim (I did watch Pokemon back in the '90s, but I'm not into it anymore). However, I will try to expand my horizons and start appreciating some other series I may have overlooked.

I've been visiting ANN for years, but finally felt compelled to join the forums.

However, the ANN forums seemed extremely well staffed and policed, so I thought I would give it a shot.

Hey fellow transperson, welcome. Allen's a nice name, did you pick it yourself or did a friend give it to you? I guess one plus of being transgendered is you get to choose your own name.

Favorite Quotes:
"We must not then dishonour education, because some men [women] are pleased to do so, but rather suppose such men [women] to be boorish and uneducated, desiring all men [women] to be as they themselves are, in order to hide themselves in the crowd, and escape the detection of their lack of culture."
~ St. Gregory the Theologian

“To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant.”
~ Amos Alcott

"Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity."
~ George Carlin

"The rise of Idiot America ... is essentially a war on expertise ... In the new media age, everybody is a historian, or a scientist, or a preacher, or a sage. And if everyone is an expert, then nobody is, and the worst thing you can be in a society where everybody is an expert is, well, an actual expert."
