Re: Mangahelpers awards / Durarara finished = √3
Hell yeah, sally, Yep those courses like God, Air,... are very interesting. I kinda expect a lot from it just like I expect a lot from the gourmet world. Has Nuno already started reading Toriko? He said he was going to try.

well everyone started to call me koen instead of koenosaki. Koen is my real name and unlike many, my nickname didn't have a meaning (check below)
meaning of nickname:
- when I was a kid I used to form my name into manga/anime character's names. In my own language koen isn't pronounced like ko-en but it is pronounced like - kun or coon (though the oo has to be pronounced very short). The sound of my name allows me to take a japanese version, thus I made kurosaki into koenosaki (oe sounds like u in kurosaki).
- most japanese translators always read my nick like koe no saki = beyond the voice
- my new nick/real name koen is a pure (= no Romanesque influences) Germanic name. Its meaning is 1. brave, valiant, courageous, audacious,... 2. A capable adviser. It can thus be sometimes used as an adjective like een koene ridder (a brave knight). A derived form - not so popular - is coenraad/koenraad (maybe the english conrad will ring a bell).
Most people find the name koen always tough and forceful
DRRR finished? How'd you like the ending? I got Blai to watch it yesterday night too![]()
Yes, I have watched DRRR till the end, strange but true, I have the same feeling like baccano: I want more!!!! Man, I was happy when simon punched Izaya a black eye. I have never liked Izaya and I was really happy that he failed achieving his plans. Kida, Anri and Mikado had a serious character development in the second part whereas the first part was mostly about the interaction with their surroundings (Shizuo, Celty, Izaya, etc). I loved DRRR but I would have liked some extra episodes for the ending.Ooh you finished DRRR!!same question as nuno: how did you find the ending? :3
Also, the actual purpose of my using my last 2 minutes online to post here before I have to go down to entertain people - I finished Toriko!!!I finished on the plane back, and it's great!! Especially the more recent chapters about god and the gourmet world and melk! Thanks for the rec man!

Haha, well I was convinced too when I had alcohol in my system. Imagine that you had gotten by a hot girl meanwhileThanks for the chat tonight. IRC needs more of those.![]()

name change:Why the name change?
...And maybe this has been asked before but, what did koenosaki mean? A characters name?
