  1. And wow, it's as if I've been enlightened. Since 2004, I haven't had the chance to revisit the series, but it always held a certain special spot in my mind. Always was at the top of the list for me. And over time, I came to believe it was simply my overly-obsessive love for wolves that drove my passion for the series.

    But now, revisiting it for the first time in five years, I see that while that may be a factor... (the wolf has held the position as my favorite animal for six years, around the same time I adapted the nickname "Okami," obviously 'Wolf' in Japanese!) But it is certainly not the only contributing factor.

    This series has several voice actors that are commonly known by the anime-watching community. For example, the four main characters are voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch, Crispin Freeman, Joshua Seth, and Mona Marshall.

    Certainly most of you anime-watchers know three of the four. And if not, a shame.

    Needless to say, this is a fairly unknown series, and much unappreciated these days. With beautiful music (I love Yoko Kanno) mixed with exceptional artwork (Anyone with artistic ability understands how difficult the anatomy of a wolf can be to draw) it is by far one of my favorite series.

    I now see why I like this series. It's not just my love of wolves, or my love of those voice actors, or even the love of the music. It's all of this combined into one great thing for me. Never have I found a series where I like all of the voice actors for their given character. This is my exception.

    I would recommend this to any fan of anime, especially those fans of action and supernatural. :)

  2. I too am a...ugh, I hate the usage of 'pc'...Microsoft Windows fan. :) I grew up around them because my dad has worked with such computers for as long as I can remember. So there has never been anything but Windows-run computers in our house. However, this may soon change as my dad goes to get Apple certified.

    That being said, because I grew up using a computer such as this, I've attempted to use the Mac interface and it confuses me greatly. I think Macs are kind of trashy for being so dang expensive. But that's probably also due to the fact that most of them are white, and white things (ESPECIALLY around college students) become dull...and a greying faded brownish color. Yick.

    I like my 15.6in Asus for half the price of a small Mac, thank ya muchly.

  3. I love this, best one yet, but just a few conerns:

    EDIT: I realised another problem, not sure if you guys have too. But you see the Quick Links button on the Nav bar. I click on it then click 'Your Profile' which should bring me to my profile. But instead it brought me to Greencat's profile... T_T

    Actually Toffeuy, the pixellated junk in the ACT badges are my fault, because my photoshop wouldnt erase it, and it didn't become noticable until the image was animated =/

  4. Another thing to consider is how pixelled-looking the badges get when it's in this theme. I REALLY REALLY like the darker colors, though. I would love to see a theme with these colors with...oh I dunno, a neutral blue/grey instead of gold :D But from what I see right now, I like it.

    EDIT: OOHHHHH, my sigpic looks AMAZING in this theme!

    EDIT2: Shoddy Server Status page gets a 404 error. Just sayin'

  5. Don't ever site gamestop for anything, please.

    I worked there, and they'd just put up some guesswork when nothing official was announced. And then constantly change it (if it got close) and blame it on the companies (such as "oh, looks like it got pushed back again"). They have no communication with companies, they just guess until something is announced to the press. So you'd probably know from the internet sooner than they would know.

    Trust me on this.

    Ugh, yes. I remember I got that response for over a year on one game -__-;

  6. My fan in the window and people scurrying around, readying themselves for church.

    EDIT: Didn't want to get drilled for double posting in this thread again (it's been a DAY what, are you people not listening to music?! xD)

    Anyways, I'm listening to Skillet's The Last Night and pre-ordering Awake. (Tomorrow! I'm so excited!!)

  7. It's sad to see, really. I knew several Muslim students throughout high school and they were some of the coolest people I knew back then. I also knew a young Jewish boy while I was in driver's education who believed that because I am a Christian and I have German in me...that I was a nazi. People can be so blatently rude to others.

    I'm glad to see a topic like this, though. Hopefully it will help open the eyes of those surrounding us. :)

  8. Looks at age and wonders how 14 year old can be in college 0_o

    For me I'm thinking that maybe college could be middle school? I know some parts of the world refer to that as college, and college level for us for them = university. Correct me if I'm wrong, please, by all means.

    Dinner time!
