STOP! POLL TIME.



[Poll #1519441]



In other news,

*I've taken to keeping track of how much I write in a month -- got a little header post on my journal for each month. It did motivate me to watch the little bars fill up, so that's a plus in favor of continuing. (it did push me to then fluff the numbers with narusasu ficlets instead of my multiparts, but I don't think a lot of you minded. XD) I hope I can keep the habit.

*Should I bother to make a manga comments post for this week? I've seen so much OMG SASUKE IZ EBIL FOREVERZ NAO, it kind of killed my drive.

Aww, if anything, all the negative or flaily posts I've seen have just made me more stubborn in believing that Sasuke will be fine (and you helped too ♥). Also... lolz Sasuke hahahahaha *still loling*

You're missing a ticky box from your "Why are you here?" question.

There needs to be a "Because Asuka is awesome" option. :3

Re Sasuke: This chapter just kind of made me depressed. ._. And annoyed at Kishi. >.>;;; Questy's hope is kind of keeping my own alive, I think.

I agree that there are not enough ticky boxes, and also that there need to be some "Asuka is [positive adjective goes here]" options.

How do you do the little journal header thingy with the bar you can fill up with words? A little visual motivation might be what I need.

... I think I'm the only person who was actually happy at seeing Sasuke's more "insane" side. >3> Besides killing his brother, he hasn't really done anything that was particularly evil at all--stabbing his teammates is crossing that border. He hasn't done anything like this since VotE. Is it odd that I like the reveal of his insanity? But bah, he might not have even stabbed Karin.

He's not evil, he's just psychologically unstable. Which is completely understandable. And yet people still WONDER why he's not making all the "right" choices, especially with Madara's cheerleading.

And oh yes, I love your manga reviews. )o)

D-D-D.Gray-man~ 8DDD Oh, the love. Oh, the crack. I swear to god that woman is on 'shrooms. Have you seen the recent stuff? Her art makes you think she might be dropping acid (re: Team Funny Farm Hebi Taka's rainbow palette), and her writing makes you think she's definitely been dropping acid...

(Also, she can't spell. Official spellings of names run the gamut from "sensible" (Allen Walker, Johnny Gill, Bookman) to "okay, sure" (Lenalee Lee, Yu Kanda, Lavi) to "WTF were you smoking in English class?!" (Tyki Mikk, Jeryy, Malcolm=C=Lvellie).)

*loves on*

I can't help but notice that the Naruto poll seems to be skewed towards "porn." x3

[identity profile] kohikari.livejournal.com 2010-02-01 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yup, she's been putting Latin-alphabet spellings out in...I think the tankoubon or extras or some kinda press releases or something. The katakana for "Lavi" (EN) goes ラビ "RABI" (JA), much like "Yu Kanda" (EN) is 神田 ユウ "Kanda YUU" (JA) in the source language. I think it was sometime around the point where I was sitting in Borders looking at the text on the page that read "the Black Order cook's name is definitely spelled 'J-E-R-Y-Y' no that is not a typo we are not kidding" that I decided that the best course of action was to smile and nod and try not to break my brain questioning Hoshino's logic.

It all works out; the respondents seem to be skewed towards "porn" as well. Myself included. ♥

I like your writing a lot, I always love to see when you have more up, even the short stuff not related to Teamwork or crossed Wires. I have to admit however, that every Friday I come looking for the Naruto manga review. It's nice to see other people look at the crazy crap that goes on in that manga and find it as amusing.

As far as the last chapter went, not believing the "hay look, Sasuke's evil now! oh nos!" Kishi likes to mess with readers. Keeps them coming back;)

What, I can't just be here because you're awesome? :-)

Ah, ticky boxes, my one true love. ♥

To be entirely frank, I now completely rely on your manga reviews in order to figure out if it's actually worth it to read the chapter. This also serves the bonus that if I decide not to read, I still have some idea of what's going on. Plus I find your version much easier to stomache.

GO TICKY BOXES GO \o/

I'm specifically a fan of SasuJuu in the SasuTaka part, although for teh hot I'm all for team lust. But I imagine in an actual pairing, they'd work best, 'cause Sasuke's kinda (seems) high maintenance and, other than keeping that psycho side underwraps, Juugo is undemanding, unassuming and empathetic. I imagine that would be a wonderful relief to Sasuke once he finally wants to /breathe./
Same reason I ship GaaraChouji :3

[identity profile] sara-the-lazy.livejournal.com 2010-09-25 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
For the series we both enjoy (about half of them) I like almost all of the pairings/trios that you do (plus some more). Cool.

I tend to gravitate toward certain 'ships, but if it's well written I'll read anything at least once.
