Summer Retro or futuristic?

I always think with things like this, it is always better to create a new story in an existing universe. So I think a manga set in Tolkien's Middle Earth, or set in the world of Harry Potter would work, but it would work much better to fill in some history or make a completely new story than...

Re: Gunnm last order/Battle angel alita last order I haven't yet finished the first BAA, but I have to agree it's one of the best I've ever read (if not the best so far!). I'm looking forward to reading more of it and starting Last order, although I had no idea it was more light hearted (and...

Swords, they always seem more heroic. Countryside or the big city?

My favourite band are The Gazette, they're a visual kei/ J-Rock band, but they span a lot of genres so I think most people can enjoy at least some of their music, as most of it is really catchy. At the moment my favourites are both funk rock in sound: SILLY GOD DISCO Shadow VI II I But...

Love, as I'm a big ol' sap. Bacon or sausage?

X-Men! DC or Marvel?

If you mean eggs, then scrambled Rain or snow?

Both of those comments interested me, could you both expand a bit though, if it isn't too personal to you or anything like that. @Blai - does that mean you think of God as a concept like xi0 does? or do you have some other interpretation? @xi0 - a concept of what? Of Morality? Of Creation...

Wispy Action or Romance?

I confess I wish I had more keepsakes to remember things by. The only things that give me true nostalgia these days are things like old gameboy colour and Ps1 games, especially the music. If I'm honest I must have a had an uneventful childhood, because I can't remember so much of it! :huh...

The ones that made it onto my iPod: Zetsubou Billy by Maximum the Hormone (The 1st Death Note opening) Kesenai Tsumi (Indelible Sin) by Nana Kitade (Ending to Full Metal Alchemist, I love how it has just the guitar and synth at the start, so they'd usually play it while Edward and Alfonse...
