Comic Update: It’s the time to play the game
October 31st, 2009 at 18:02:47 by wahThis was one of the backup scripts I had written about two years ago to use for when I’m too lazy to come up with an idea regarding some currently airing anime or something similar. This is actually re-written from its original to be a bit more snappy and quick. I find it fairly humourous.
The more astute of you may notice that Tina’s hair has become more pointy as opposed to its usual softer shape. Basically I’ve grown really attached to Watanabe Akio’s style and the general look of Bakemonogatari, so in at attempt to get better at drawing, I figured I’d kind of crib Watanabe’s style. Also, her hair like this is easier to draw and just works better. That said, I liked her old hair too, so I may switch back and forth. Just pretend she’s changing shampoos. The art for this comic in general is fine, but it’s kind of messy in places. Once again, the background shamelessly traced over a photo I took.
I don’t really feel like talking about anime so I’ll touch upon three me-related matters. First off, an interview I conducted with Matt Alt three or so months ago is live! At least the first part of it. Secondly, some other like-minded people and I have started to sub Kirumin, because no one else is subbing it. Big thanks go out to mwhead2 for taking his time to translate for us. Without him, we’d be nowhere. I’m just a timer, after all. And thirdly, I wrote my first (and probably last) thing on Colony Drop. I wrote the Big O “preview” in their Fall preview. Because my name is really Greg, kind of like how it’s really 1999 right now.
And that’s it. Hopefully I’ll see you all next week now that midterms are done!

I don’t see what that has to do with anything.

Iono, I always thought you were opposed to Fansubs as a whole. I mean, good luck in your venture and all, but I thought you hated fansubs in general.
October 31st, 2009 at 23:06:45
Why would you think that. How do you think I understand shows I’m unable to watch raw?

I coulda sworn back in the day (I mean like GC times) you had a series of posts where you said something to the extent of “All fansubbers are overly dramatic, amateur, attention-seeking whores”. Of course, it seems that I was just imagining things, or confused you with someone else, so all I’ve done is manage to make myself look like a royal bung-hole. I apologize for whoring comment space and good luck with the fansubs, I’ll be sure to check em out when their released.

I can hate fansubbers and fansubs but still watch them. There’s also plenty of good fansubs out there these days.

Her face seems to have changed quite a bit, also.

Keeping on the subject of fansubbing, what really bothers me is when they leave words untranslated.
I’m sorry, One Piece fansubbers, but “nakama” is not an English word and should not be placed in an English sentence WHEN IT HAS AN ENGLISH TRANSLATION.
And you, Dragonball Kai fansubbers, for referring to the Namek elder as “Sachoro-sama” or whatever. THAT IS NOT HIS NAME. THAT IS HIS TITLE. URGH.
@The Comic: I think we’ve all fantasized about a gay submissive relationship with Char. I’d doubt your masculinity if you said you didn’t!

I belive there are a few male dakimakuras available like Simon and Kamina.
And custom dakimakuras ARE available like:
