Otaku corner

[Nala'84]

I've noticed quite a few otakus (anime fans) around the forum...
=^_^=
... so i thought it would be nice to have a little anime talk..
So I made this topic

What is up??
And omg plz don't ask for a list of favorite anime.... you can if you want.. but you would ask for a list of 5 and i would haveta list like 20... atleast.


Ah, how to start this...

How bout a challenge?
Name the song =^_^=

Oto no nai mahiru
Kaze wa tada akarui
Sukoshi nemutasou ni
Hanabira ga yureta

Nani ge nai kono omoi
Nee, hito wa donna kotoba de
Yondeiru no

Shiroi suna no tsuki
Toji kometa hanashi o
Hikari furasu you ni
Kikasete ne sotto.


Pretty song.
Sung by a woman in a quite popular classic anime.


Try and guess if you wish ^^
If people really care, I will give more clues

im gonna get someone to make me a fursuit so i can cosplay him at a-kon or animefest but i gotta save up the money first and thats gonna take a while

[disclosedtruth]

enigmawing - Out of the ones you answered (with either name/title), you got one incorrect. You actually identified most of the shoujo titles. I thought Miki would've been hard.

anger is pointless - Those would be correct. Good job. I made this not so high quality chart on paint myself. lol

[anger is pointless]

yay i got em right

im a fan of both old and new animes my first animes were digimon pokemon yugioh monster rancher and inu-yasha

[Nala'84]

Ack! I know most of these.. but could not reply fast enough.

Ok.. #7, stated maybe gundam... I believe is Sosuke from Full metal panic.
#29 is Haru? ... that girl from FLCL.
#24 is that dog from Paranoi Agent.
#22 is agent paper.. from Read or Die.
#40 could be Mai from My Hime?

Those are the remaining that i know.

#20 is maybe a Sugar Baby?

[Nala'84]

#14 is maybe Gravitation??

[disclosedtruth]

Nala'84 - #14: Nope, #20: Nope but you're kind of close, The rest: You would be correct.

Would you like me to create a new one?

[Nala'84]

Yes, please! I'm havin fun =^_^=.

O ya.. and is #20 Digi-charat? If not I give up lol.

[disclosedtruth]

^ #20 is right, nyo =^^=

Me too enigmanwing. Actually, I wouldn't consider myself "otaku" at all anymore. I had a serious shoujo anime phase when I was in middle school, (around '98) but ever since then I haven't really been keeping up w/ current anime (except miyazaki, of course!). Still I love all the shoujo series I was into. Come on who doesn't still love sailor moon?

[disclosedtruth]

New chart:



Have fun!

Pyoko - All correct except 12 and 35.
