The Anime/Manga Thread

Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.

Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

One of us! One of us! One of us!

Already one of us? Make your presence known:

Also Mikuru being a moeblob, fake or not, is generic in today's anime world, even if she may have (barely) predated the trend.

I really didn't care for Mikuru for the longest time myself.

Also, I miss the days when you proclaimed that Haruhi sounded really interesting and awesome :c Gaaaaaaah, the later books! flails Haven't read those in so long. Gonna wait for book ten to come out and then read the whole series through.

Also Mikuru being a moeblob, fake or not, is generic in today's anime world, even if she may have (barely) predated the trend. this is probably the main reason mikuru/kyon is the least poplar which is a shame since imo mikuru's character is fairly well developed; much more than what you could expect from a moeblob nowadays

Looks like I'm probably up to date and will need to pre-order nine.

Also, I miss the days when you proclaimed that Haruhi sounded really interesting and awesome :c Doesn't matter Satty, it's all about appearances. Also as Draco said, most people are already going to get attached to Yuki or Haruhi by the time they learn Mikuru's character. Anyway Satty, I too miss the days when people would talk about anime and I would know what the [radio edit] they were talking about Finishing the 2nd season of the anime and the Disappearance movie are things I intend to do eventually, ~~as much as it sickens me to watch something mainstream here while nobody watches what I like >:C~~ so. Anyway the sci-fi mystery stuff is still interesting but for the slice of life parts I have elsewhere to go and other things to do.
