Good thing I think One Piece is poor then. lol It's not just the song, the op video alao sways me. =P The Honey and Clover one sucks. =P Reason I actually watch it is because the op normally gets me in the mood to watch the anime......

Madness! The first couple of episodes to be honest aren't all that hot. lol After that it's pure golden though. Harima Kenji alone is worth the download...... Seriously! Oh oh oh and Lala is awesome! "ICHIJO!!!!" ^^;;;; I just got round to watching the honey and clover op.... I will never watch that anime. lol I couldn't put up with that every episode and I refuse to fast forward. =P

.........No, I don't really like reading manga, Love Hina was one of the first I bothered trying to read and yeah don't like it........ For some reason I like reading School Rumble though. :-/

I've been wondering what anime to download recently and as I tend to decide on watching an anime based on the intro alone I was wondering if everyone could go ahead and post youtube links of the intro to there favourate anime. ^^; I'll even start it off by posting some of my favourates as it will stop them being posted again. lol School Rumble + Nigakki http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7I4wDAEBibA&mode=related&search= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xw_wJZdJEGc&mode=related&search= Love Hina Evangelion (Gave me the feeling the series would be epic ^^; ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiRlAwyLfAU Narutaru (Although I didn't know at the time, it is infact the perfect intro) Note: If you haven't watched Narutaru DO! >.> Ok that'll do for now if I post lots people might not bother.

Stop moaning over something so stupid....... Oh no he said I type like a 13 year old girl wahhhhh....... Seriously it's stupid. Arsenal, really should have won today and Eboue's shot at the end really represented the rest of the season for us. What Arsenal lack is concentration most of the time, they play teams off the park and then get pegged back at the last minute because of a stupid mistake. This is also backed by a serious lack of goals, but, Van P and Henry are bound to fix that next season. I also have high hopes for our midfield next season assuming they actually manage to stay fit for more then 3 games at a time. Fabre and Gilberto are the only consistent midfielders we've had this year due to injury. :-/ I also think in some situations there really is an arguement for playing Justin Hoyte in a right back position with Eboue in midfield, he really does give us quite a strong attacking presence down the wing. Yup, Arsenal have the most points out of the top 4 in games agaisnt the top four.... Arsenal have 11 with ManU in second with 7..... It's against the lesser teams we lack something, it's been said a lot, but, it's obviously down to a lack of maturity in Arsenal's team and whilst it's asking a lot, some of our younger players need to grow up fast.

It wasn't that great, not much happened really. lol It looks like next episode will be good though. =P Oh btw, although it's not anime, people should watch IWGP (Ikebukuro West Gate Park) which is based on the manga of the same name... It's a really good drama about a guy from Ikebukuro with a whole load of gang/yakuza stuff going on around him, he starts solving peoples problems etc.... I really do recommend it for people to watch, just as much as Densha Otoko, but, for different reasons. =P One big reason I found it really interesting from the start is it's set in the very area I stayed in when I was in Tokyo. Like the main place shown is about 2 mins from where my hotel was. That was pretty cool. lol Oh and those who have watched GTO will recognise quite a few people.. Guy who was good with computers plays the leader of one of the gangs for example and I have to say he does an awesome job. ^^d If you're interested here's a link to a website that has it hosted on megauploads so you'll get good speeds downloading it if that's a worry.... Infact it's an awesome website for Japanese films/dramas (as well as other asian countries) in general. http://silentregrets.com/completed-jdramas/iwgp.php I put this in here because I figured anime fans would be interested in it, but, I don't expect there to be enough interest in dramas to make a seperate thread....

Eenuh, that's not a break, that's breaking up with the possibility of getting back together.. If he's decided he's going to wait in hope you do that's his choice, you didn't set that rule for him. Euurgghhh I went back in a circle cause you obviously didn't understand what I was saying by asking something I had already said earlier and you obviously remember... :-/

Why am I getting worked up over it? Because it's a stupid concept and I hate it when people defend stupidity? :-/ I've already stated earlier in the thread that a girl should either break up with the person or move on with them in a mature way, you know, have a relationship..... Infact I'll go over this point again as you probably missed it.... If someone breaks up with you and you don't want this to happen, you have the option to try to win them back correct? You don't have anything to lose really, no worries just do your best..... If you succeed then you have to work on your problems in the relationship.. If someone "goes on a break" you don't really have too much you can do. In this situation you are faced with the problem that a) they want space and b) they have voiced there desire that they may want to get back together with you. Goron just so happens to have stipulation c) that she wants him to hang around her like a little puppy, or a very very very very good friend, whatever... Now taking these things into consideration it's hard for someone to take any form of action other then sit it out and wait, which is obviously a painful experience, made worse by stipulation c in Goron's case. The only real way to possibly stop the suffering of the person playing the waiting game is take some form of action. This is obviously a risk though, you could make things worse, what do you do? I suggested Goron talks to the person about it, sort some thing out and try to end the stupidity. What do you think the best idea is? Follow someone, supposedly your loved one, who is knowingly putting you through pain, or, try to stop the stupidity of a "break" and move on as a normal relationship should? As for what I'd really prefere a girl to do when she is unsure of something.. Come out and say it. Speak to the person about there problems, be mature about the situation. **I'm tired and I'm going to struggle to type this next part out from a 3rd person perspective, so I'm going to do it from a first person perspective despite the fact it's got nothing to do with me. lol** If you have a problem with something I've done I expect you to tell me, get through it with me OR break up with me. If you have problems in your life outside of our relationship, well, I still expect you to come to me and talk to me about it because that's what relationships are. If not you're just in it to be entertained. Not a serious relationship. Now, if this solution can't be solved with me being inside a relationship with them then I'll break up with them myself. If there is no room for me in said persons life then why would I want to waste both of our time on it? :-/ This situation is the end of a relationship. Maybe you'll end up with them again down the line, but, at this point in time it's not going to function. You get sad, you go emo for a while, eventually you get over it. I'm hoping you're more understanding of my point now on why it's stupid.. If not then I dunno. lol MoogleViper and Rummy are pretty much spot on. lol

Yup I must have issues with girls..... O.o;; How is knowing that girls aren't perfect classed as having issues? :-/ Yes, my point is however that saying lets go on a break isn't fair... Putting someone you supposedly love through hurt like that isn't right.... Infact putting anyone through something like that isn't right, why should someone be able to get away with that because they "need the space"? It's stupid. I also never said to "take back control".. I said that she should be told it's not fair that she does what she's doing.. :-/ It's not selfish at all? Saying to someone "Sorry, but until I say you have to hang around me just like normal, but, you can't act like my boyfriend because I'm not sure right now" isn't selfish? Have I ever been in the situation and resolved it so that no one gets hurt in the end.. Well ermm yes and no.... I've never been in the situation and had the relationship last forever, but I've been in one and had it last past it... Have I ever been in a serious relationship.. Nope never..... *Looks over at baby* It's not near christmas? Never would have guessed! Please remember to tell me this last year as well....... Didn't say she was trying to fuck things up, she is still in the wrong though..... Yes a girls oppinion on something that effects a GUY is like perfect.... Go girls! :-/ So do exactly as she asked and it will work out.... Well ermm yes.. If you did exactly what a girl said and you still ended up losing that would be seriously fucked up.... I'm talking about this moment now whilst someones upset over something.. :-/

You're really not getting this.... How is calling a break in a relationship not taking control? Despite what her reasons are, this is what she is doing.... She knows it hurts him..... That's all you need to know. She is doing things despite that because she is selfish, simple as... She is saying, I don't know what to do so I'm going to put you through shit until I decide otherwise.. Selfish... I also never said that every girl is out to hurt someone..... I'm just saying girls CAN be bitches.... If they are doing something that hurts you then you SHOULD set them straight on it. Yeah the only way to gain control again is to take some form of action on it, saying you're going to break up with them is one way, but, that's how the whole "I want to take a break thing works." Who is going to say that to someone they think will break up with them over it unless that is there actual goal? Also, if it does backfire and they come out and say they will break up with them over it, how hard is that going to be to reverse? All a girl will have to say is "no, no I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you please don't break up with me!" and I'm pretty sure it will be back to normal..... Well that's assuming they didn't completely misjudge the guy in the first place... Seriously, everything you are trying to defend this with is all part of my point in the end. :-/ Oh and I'd like to know where I said what this girls reason for doing this is... :-/ You seem to be of the frame of mind that I'm saying that her reason for doing it is she is evil....

Are you even aware of what you're saying? You're contradicting yourself in that very post.... You say she's not trying to take control etc, but then go on to say she is..... Don't you realise that by saying she wants to go on a break that is infact an attempt to take control of things? There is also no doubt she knows this hurts the person she is saying it to but does it anyway... It's stupid.

Eh? Where are you showing me that I'm wrong here? :-/ If anything I think your first paragraph explains more how I'm right in this situation... Girls aren't retarded, despite the fact they may act that way sometimes... They do know what they are doing and what they are putting other people through.. What's the point in making excuses for someone when they are in the wrong in a situation? I want to take a break? That is clearly a way to gain control of a situation and it shows with the way she came back to you when she started to lose control... Seriously, sometimes I think people take women for fools, like they are too kind hearted by default to do anything bad to someone. There is of course a problem with what I'm saying. It's easier to say this from the sidelines then in the situation the OP is in... Of course this is why he was looking for the nice responces because it's hard to act on something when you don't want to lose someone. However it is somewhat in the best interest of those on the outside of the situation to remind people that there own feelings count and that they shouldn't let someone play with them in such ways. That's just my view on the situation anyway, the OP can do what he wants to do. Ganbatte ne! hehe NOTE: This post may not be my real thoughts as I'm currently under the influence of a serious overdose of J-Drama and a severe lack of sleep...... Taiyou no Uta, GTO and Satorare say hi. ^^d

This thread is pointless....... You're only listening to the advice that you want to hear in the first place anyway..... :-/ It's the reason you're sticking with that line about showing her what she's missing when you know damn well she knows exactly who you are and what she's apparently missing. It's stupid. I also think you're wrong about the reason she took this break with you, but, finding out the real reason is down to you tbh... I'm not here trying to tell you that she's going to break up with you if you do take the advice others have said, I'm just saying you shouldn't let people play with you like she is..... Don't you find it offensive, even if you're right about her reasons, that she'd consider breaking up with you over it? And if she isn't considering breaking up with you then does she really need a break? I mean atleast if someone breaks up with you and you want to get back with them you have some kind of leg to stand on as you don't have anything to lose... With this break shit you've just gotta float about there giving them complete control over you... You can't do anything without worrying if they're going to break up with you. This is obviously effecting you as you're talking about spending to much time with her.

Honestly, would it be worth missing out on such a potentially awesome experience in order to guarentee uni hall of residence? :-/ Seriously, going away on your own to another country is guarenteed to be one of the biggest experiences of your young life no matter if it's amazing or shit...... I would personally not choose France or Germany.... Even excluding Japan after that you are left with 3 awesome places to go. o.o;; I would say the experiences you will gain smash to pieces the thought of getting guarenteed hall or residence. =P

You're 17 right? I assume she is as well....... You need to tell her to stop fucking about with you....... :-/ What she's doing is wrong and you seriously need to tell her that. I mean if she doesn't want to be with you she needs to say that so you can get on with things... If she still wants to be with you then she's being fucking stupid and playing with your emotions here....... If this is the case what she really needs is a good slap. >.>;

God I wish my uni gave this option. >.>;; I think you should go no matter where. lol

It's a good thing finding out she is a bit of a.... Sorry nevermind............

Yeah ramen is very cheap... You CAN get it for 100 yen... :-/ The divide by 200 thing used to work but now it's more like 240 last I checked...... Maybe more....

Flaights got it right..... With some of my guesses I was actually overshooting the mark a bit.... I was thinking back wondering if it could really have been that cheap.... Now, if you want to get REALLY fancy food you can obviously go crazy spending hundreds, but, most won't be... I think the most we spent on a meal was £90, and that was amazing. XD For comparisons sake, a general meal eating out here in the UK we spend around £40 and that's no where near the same standard as I'm talking..... Oh and that £90 meal was 5 people compared to the couple we normally are. =P o.o;; I do think in general we spent around 4000/5000 yen a meal though as we were kinda living it up..... I mean I spent 100,000 yen on concert tickets....... =P I forgot to mention....... http://www.star-hotel.co.jp/starplaza.html These are very good prices for HOTELS in Tokyo.... Not all that cheap, but not too bad either..... You have another option though of Hostels..... Being Japan they are apparently very clean (if you don't understand this, well basically Japan is just really clean lol) and worth the money, they also tend to be quite a bit cheaper... I'm not to helpful in the hostel department, but, it's aparently a very good option... The only reason I didn't take it is because I wanted to have a room with my girlfriend and most kinda seperate sexes as far as I could make out. Like I was saying though if you want to take a hotel, Hotel Star Plaza is very good, very clean and in a very good location despite being met by massive crows every morning. XD http://pixel.recoil.org/photos/tokyo/CrowApproaches.jpg atleast 5 of these in the streat outside every morning. hehe

Thanks for the nice comments everyone... Supergrunch: The Kanji we are using mean beautifully blooming if I'm not mistaken...... 美咲 I think that's right......

Very good point..... I should have said so myself. o.o;; URgghh..... ermmmm......... Comparative prices of food? Well if you want to know the price of Japanese food in Japan compared to London you can problably divide it by 3 if not four..... Seriously... Okonomiyaki in London = £8 for one which isn't even that big..... In Japan you could get a big one for £3..... Technically though you could get all you can eat Okonomiyaki with all you can drink as well, which includes alcohol for like £10 I think..... I'm a bit fuzzy on the prices now though. I'm sure I said in another thread...... In general though things are quite a bit cheaper.... McDonalds was like £2 something for a meal..... The thing is though everything depends on conversion rates..... Things were cheaper anyway, but, when I went they were even cheaper as the pound was well up on the yen... I think it's even better now though so really cheap stuff in comparison.

You weren't able to pick up anything from my post Mike? And yeah I know supergrunch. =P

Well from the other thread I realised I never updated this with my babies final name.... o.o;; Her name is Misaki. I don't remember how we came to the decision, but, that's what it is. lol ^^d She's 6 weeks old and a well. She's putting on weight normally and stuff. She's started trying to talk now as well meaning she's making random sounds other then grunts and crying.. She's also reacting to more around the environment. Anyway that's the update from 6 weeks in. ^^d

Eh, you mean I never ended up saying? XD Her name is Misaki. ^^d

Nope, no sisters...... She has a brother though....... He's free.... Then again, he's also 10...... So ermm no luck. =P
