Re: Mangahelpers awards // Durarara (ep13): Isaac and Miria from Baccano - what a cameo

Yeah, the speed comes along with my liking of the anime. Yes, the opening has changed and you can clearly feel a new arc is starting. New characters: Shingen Kishitani, Kinnosuke (the cop), Kida's ex-gf saki, etc... I look forward to it.

It is especially the narrative and mosaic style that a I like a lot. Baccano had that too.

Izaya vs Shizuo is awesome. It is definitely hilarious when Izaya is talking to someone, he suddenly jumps aside, something big passes him by

Izaya: "I have to go"
Shizuo: "Izaya!!!!!!! I knew someone stinks" :rofl :rofl

Well, I am kinda like shizuo. I never liked Izaya and I think I couldn't befriend him either (at this moment).

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep13) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

HI KOENNNNNNNN

[sizept=25]MERRY CHRISTMAS![/sizept]

Look, Christmas present :3

Sorry I took so long!! And, ahh I don't think it's anywhere as nice as your Psyren one. I'm so sorry :scry


I realise it's a bit weird that the pictures go from left to right except for the middle coloured Toriko. I'm going to try another one putting Toriko at the end (because I need to tweak it till i have enough space for "discover" even after moving the position of its accompanying image! its the longest word)... Editing/posting again in a bit...!

Oh and let me know if there's anything you'd want me to change yes :)

EDIT: scratch that, the word discover is just too long to fit properly without looking weird (obviously smaller font size and character spacing), and reducing font size for all makes the shorter words like "full" look weird D: Is it okay...? If you changed the wording (but keep the number of words the same, i can't fit any more pictures without exceeding the size limit lol) I might be able to do something, though.

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep13) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

I have already taken it as my new signature. Thank you a lot for this great Christmas present. You did a great job and it is very pleasant surprise Sally :)

In Belgium, we always give three kisses on the cheek:

*left cheek* Kiss
*right cheek* Kiss
(During the transition: "merry Christmas and thank you for the gift")
*left cheek* (Final) Kiss

Thank you very much

Three kisses? Make it two or four. Even number ftw.


And stop catching up on anime/manga so fast, desu is busting my balls cuz I haven't read FMA yet and you're already far ahead on whatever you're doing. D:

Merry Christmas again! :kissbunny

Ah come on, we might be an exception but going for three kisses is the best.

4 kisses is bullshit because it is more exception than the other even version, 2 kisses.

Three kisses are epic. Just try it out and you'll feel why we do it...


Hehe glad you like it :)

Yeah gonna change that tomorrow. I am too tipsy to change it good :p

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep13) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

Just so you know, I tracked to see how many hits the Psyren sig recieved every month and it was my highest viewed picture in my photobucket gallery. Every time a page loads for the first time it counts as 1 view. Since June it has a total of 376,303 views. Even other sites hotlinked the image and used it as there sig but nothing I could do about that. Sarah did a good job with the Toriko sig, 1 sec intervals with every pic and 3 sec for the last and nice font. I didn't know you were looking for a new one. All is well.

Aki...

Merry Christmas man...

Héhé, I knew that your beautiful sig would have been effective. It was:
1. A very nice signature
2. Since June it has a total of 376,303 views -> a very amazing amount which your great work deserved a lot. Why did it have to be cancelled, why didn't your views reflect ToC votes. Tell me Aki :(

I do hope that you understand that I changed it since psyren has ended :worrybunny

I know that you read Toriko too which is expected from the man with a taste -> can you hear that Toriko unbelievers? Only people with taste, read it

Btw, I have started to buy Liar game and Akiyama is the best male character I have ever seen (I nominated him and you should do it too, Akiyama deserves the vote of Akiayama). Great manga man, thanks for advocating this to me

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep13) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

I'll just pretend those are some rhetorical Psyren questions that don't need answering and I'm not qualified or smart enough to come up with some answers. But I was watching the Bakuman anime recently and they talked about yearly contracts. Psyren ended at the fiscal jump year on issue 52. Iwashiro started with issue #1 in 2008 so that adds up. It's a tough decision to make but we have a decent ending one can live with and there will be more works from Iwashiro.

Toriko is a big hit that shows no sign of cancellation so your safe with picking this series as a sig. On the next Jump issue Toriko is on the cover with the Big 3, that's really impressive to see. The anime could be everlasting like the others and go beyond 100 episodes.

The French manga industry is way ahead at publishing series outside of Japan compared to English distribution. They are much faster with licensing and people notice this and buy huge amounts of manga

and Merry Christmas Koen.

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep13) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

Koen, I've read your PM but I read it when I got an email pop-up and I'm too lazy to open my PMing page (I dunno why I didn't get a PM pop-up on MH itself)... So anyway, you're welcome and I'm happy you like it ^^

I will catch up on Toriko when I get back from the States! I was hoping to finish it before going, but... :x I did catch up on Star Driver, though :hurr

Wow Aki I believe you are the first to ever call me by my real name on MH, you stalker! :aki

J/K, Merry Christmas to you :hug

Anything koen keeps as his sig gets koened, like Psyren. :pwnge

koen, make it an even number amount of kisses, not odd number. one on each cheek, one on forehead, and one on chin! BETTER! Even is good.

And merry Christmas!

Was that mentioned it the manga too? I really must have forgotten that or I must watch the anime immediately. BUT I have always thought that series which start in those new issue year, they have always a tougher time

Toriko is a big hit that shows no sign of cancellation so your safe with picking this series as a sig. On the next Jump issue Toriko is on the cover with the Big 3, that's really impressive to see. The anime could be everlasting like the others and go beyond 100 episodes.
Yeah, that's a good signal. Being with the big 3 on a cover is definitely looking very promising. Furthermore, a movie and an anime in one year. It is amazing and it has at least more material to be animated than other jump manga ;)

Mostly yes... but let's say it depends. eg psyren isn't still licensed over here. I was planning to read the Edited Mangas but when I read that liar game was going to be published in French then I was really happy and I immediately thought about your love.

Merry Christmas Koen, may you lose your powers of cursing manga :p (if you are picking up toriko the top 3 position means nothing as far as I am conserned, aliens are about to abduct the mangaka with the luck you are bringing :rofl)

Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara (ep15) // pushed 6 cars out of the snow

Kiraboshi! So I'm up to episode mid-9 now. The series is kicking my ass in terms of being an awesome watch. Episode 8 was superb with Sugata and Takuto's confrontation and fight. I can't wait to see Sugata go all out when he can fight for real instead of using another "weakling's" Cybody. I'll be up to date tonight, unfortunately. So then it's time to rewatch DRRR I guess. Are you up to 15 now? How are you liking it so far? I bet you were surprised at the revealing of Dollar's leader?
