Re: Happy Nadia's Birthday!

I'm glad to see she's resurfaced. I'm biased :sd: , but I always liked her voice acting.

Re: Patriotism to again be taught in Japanese schools

Rats! I wanted to talk about whether it was right or wrong. :>



On the basis of nothing more than guarded suspicion, I think all of those factors are more of an excuse than anything. A lot of LDP...

Re: Patriotism to again be taught in Japanese schools

Having moved from Indiana to Virginia, I can tell you I feel a distinct lack of winter here. When people ask me what I miss about the Midwest, I say, "Four seasons." :P

Re: Every day life in japan, the musical

Yup, Kumamoto is in Kyushu. Most of my relatives live in and around Kumamoto. I've been to Kumamoto Castle several times, and I've been shopping at that covered mall.

Re: How short are the skirts for the Japanese schoolgirl uniforms?

Actually I'm pretty sure they're middle-schoolers. Elementary kids would have randoseru.

Happy Nadia Day!

It's April 13 (and in Japan, it has been for some time now). On this day in 1990 (yes, it was a Friday then too) Fushigi no Umi no Nadia first aired. To commemorate, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy...

Re: Japan's Greatest Politician

Regarding the original post, sometimes it's weird to see people follow their beliefs to their logical conclusions. As long as he obeys the law, I'm happy to let him rail all he wants.

Re: How short are the skirts for the Japanese schoolgirl uniforms?

Heh, I guess I'm kind of transparent like that. :sd:
