Another NEO Refugee...

[duoinchains]

Heh... looks like I'm not the only one.

So umm... me, yeah...

I'm (now) mid-40s, been into manga and anime for about 10 years, though I've always been a comic/GN/animation fan, since nipperhood in fact (2000AD reader since issue 1).

Likes: Slice o' Life, Drama, Yaoi... the more unusual the better. Fave anime series of recent times: Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, Wandering Son, Usagi Drop and I will frequently recommend the stunning 5cm Per Second to anyone who stays within earshot for more than a few seconds :wink: Manga - Banana Fish is still my all-time fave, and a similar selection to anime really: Bunny Drop, Wandering Son, Spice & Wolf, Bakuman, etc.

Dislikes: endless, pointless and repetative 'levelling' type battle/action anime/manga featuring headbands, stripey hats and the colour orange.

Also into music (alt-folk/alt-country/punk/rock/indie/post-rock/prog... basically I'll listen to anything once... if I like it I like it, if I don't I don't.) Bit of a traing33k *cough* and also heavily into the steampunk culture.

So that's me, hello to you all!

Hello there! Not a Naruto fan, I bet.
Just wiki'ed Banana Fish, and sounds a bit crazy from how they described it. Crazy's good though, especially in gang-style stories. Unless something goes "Boom!" in a completely out-of-context fashion, then is it really "fun"?

Need to finish watching Spice and Wolf - I enjoyed it up to where I stopped, but other things popped up. lol

Well, hope you stick around and have fun.

Hello and welcome to the forum Duo. Nice to see someone who is older than me on the forum (I'm in my late 30's).

Hi and welcome Duoinchains (and assorted others of the former NEO forum) from the former Majorclanger1 at said place.

 

[duoinchains]

Thanks folks.

'tis nice here, will definitely be sticking around and participating.

I sense an internal joke here.....

Heh... yeah. Max watched 5cm/s a while back (I think I've nagged most of the NEO regulars into watching it) and he found it hit rather close to home (as indeed, it did with me), so now he gets horrible flashbacks whenever it's mentioned. One way around this is to disguise the title: 0.11184681460272011mph, for example.

Sorry Max *manly hug*

Best not to mention that I still havn't watched it yet then :wink: .

I see.... These things happens. He has a new film coming up this year, which I'm eagerly awaiting.... =)
