I'm watching Orphan Black at the moment. This is some intense business! It's got a really intriguing plot too. : o

Number of instances the word "anime" appears on that page: zero.

  Nice catch. I wonder if it is just the gif animation or the actual animation in the original scene? If anything, she appears to kick her legs in the opposite directions as they converge, as would a pair of pendulums upon collision. Some sort of a wicked lower ab workout maybe... 

 
It's just the GIF. It cuts off and restarts at a point that results in it not being as fluid as it could be.

Those are some seriously disturbing camera angles... But what's more disturbing is the girls just standing there letting it happen. I understand that's part of the cosplay and those aren't really underwear but dayuuum

was going to post the nozomi one but you beat me to it. I hear Kankore finally surpassed Tohou in number of doujinshis sold at Comiket...

Someone mentioned clones in the thread recently; I think this series is a good show to watch since it involves human cloning.

I still haven't figured out what I'm interested in in terms of labs to apply for for graduate school, but this stuff sure is interesting.

Shrimp is also pretty easy. Albiet a little more work but they taste so much better with a little meat or seafood on it. I like it with Takos and heapings of Bonito flakes.

Plus a drink. Preferably alcoholic. Mmmm.... Oh, I was listing my lunch. Thanks for the suggestion boys!


Takos... Will investigate. Hopefully not a typo lol.

Yea, I get lazy and just throw anything I can find in the fridge in there cuz that's kinda the concept of the okonomiyaki. But occasionally I'll just buy some sliced pork or beef and lay it on top before I flip it over.

As long as we're talking Japanese stuff and alcoholic beverages with it, Orion beer from Okinawa is a guilty pleasure.

And has anyone seen the new Sapporo ads in the US? Or at least NY? "Legendary Bīru." I'm not even kidding. It's an interesting angle of attack tbh.

Plenty of those are likely pornstars or idols of some sort of softcore variety advertising. They probably left out photos of most of the other normal people, yknow those inconsiderate ones who cover up their nipples.

Didn't post it. Think you meant to quite deadly. These online card games are crazy popular is Japan these days, used to play Rage of Bahamut rather seriously a year back, but like any high-maintenence game, it burns you out. Earned about $500 from a free game so I ain't complaining. :D




animal abuse is wrong, but hey wrong things are usually fun :evil:  


Last episode was so sad. Incident!!!!

So you aren't sure what field you want to go into?
 
You may have read how I wanted an astrophysics degree a decade or so ago, but abandoned it due to the complex math involved.

Takos as in Takoyakis. Those little red baby octopus with them tasty sauce. Orion is great, but I was referring to something a little more potent, Sake, for example.

That girl was pentanko enough for me to overlook the lack of a bra. What they do with themselves is their perogative bur boundaries really do need to be set. Some of the guys taking these are just flat out creepy



Nope. Meant Rage of Bahamut as is the mobile card game. I didn't even own a 3DS until 3 days ago.

The girls know full well what they're getting into, so it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to say that they enjoy the attention. Let me remind you that Japan does have one of the biggest adult entertainment industries out there too. 
 
What you don't see is that for most of the cosplay, there's an orderly queue in which you line up to take a photo as they look into your camera, so the atmosphere really is quite friendly despite what the pictures might convey. Still, I can't help but feel sorry for the super popular cosplays that attract a swarm of horny photographers, I wouldn't, and didn't, take any creepy pervy shots when I was at Comiket a while back.

Yup. They might be pervs but they are polite pervs. They Japanese are very orderly in any event, last I went, event though it was hot as hell and everything was chaotic, everywhere was clean and there was hardly any trash.

Also, in case Borisu is reading.

Ni-Sokusu, maji Nai-su. XD
