Rants & Raves

Only I would include a video game quote in a post title, and to have it as retro as it is. So 5 bonus points if you get it, even though it will have nothing to do with the rest of the post. Though video games do relate a little, into the topic […]

So yeah by now I’m aware that there are like 5 million of these posts out but I couldn’t access A2M yesterday ;_;. Anyways, before I continue, I’m going to posting spoilers if you couldn’t figure it out. You have been warned.

Alex: So, because I wanted to rant about just the ending, I’m inserting my […]

In case you’re a bit sluggish or just haven’t come in contact with it, Haruhi Fujioka is the heroine (used loosely) of Ouran Highschool Host Club. I’m referring to the anime version here, because I haven’t read the manga. I’m not patient enough anymore to read most manga, alas. Ouran, is by […]

Depending on how long you’ve been in the anime community, you may have participated in or at least spectated discussions regarding subtitles versus dubbing.

I’ve scoured anime stores in malls, bootleggers, fansub and torrent sites and no luck.

The SOS Brigade, it is no inside joke; just about anybody who watches anime knows what the SOS Brigade is now. It was/still is the big thing of summer 2006.

First of all, what is a noob? If you joined a forum just recently, then people in that forum who came ther long before you did, then they might just call you a noob. If you’re a drummer and the best that you can do is a 4/4 beat varying between 30-40 beats per minute, then you’re a noob drummer. If you call yourself a hacker but you use other people’s code to do your hacking then you’re more of a script kiddie a.k.a. noob.
