   Good news! Plus, a Wicked Awesome Dream Thing!
Yo everybody! It turns out that aikyo19 is not suicidal, her message was just misinterpreted (by a lot of people, mind you). Hyakkimaru is also stable, he could probably just use some friends by his side right about now. He's going through a sort of rough time. I've been talking with SILVER TIGER, and she was originally thinking of leaving. I promised her that I would show her just how many people on this site love her and want her to stay. Please stop by her site and show her that you want her to stay. The more people the better.

Anywho, I had the best dream last night/this morning! You know that reality show on Sci-fi channel about those para-normal investigators that hunt ghosts? I dreamt I got to study a haunting with them! I even got to see some poltergeist activity! I'm REALLY into ghosts, so this was the best dream ever for me! It was so cool! Both this show and Proof Positive are on tonight on Sci-Fi. Proof Positive at 8:00 pm, Ghost Hunters at 9:00 pm. Make sure you don't miss them!

   We have an EMERGENCY!
Yo everybody, we got an emergency! I think aikyo19 may be suicidal! <=( SUICIDE IS NEVER THE ANSWER! Please visit her site and help her out. Also, there may be a serious problem with Hyakkimaru. If you visit Vankala 86's site, you can get all the needed info on him. I needed to post something about SILVER TIGER today, please forgive me, but that has to wait until tomorrow. This is an emergency, I'm sorry.

   The Theme for "Ghost Hunter".
Yo everybody! Glad to see that a lot of you got to see Yu Yu Hakusho or Full Metal Alchemist the other night. Well, as you know, I'm currently developing my own manga, temporarily and for the moment named "Ghost Hunter". Josh (phantomlord882) said that I should find a good theme for my manga. I wanted to run my theme for it by you. I'm thinking about using "Enter Sandman" by Metallica, because it not only is one of the most wicked awesome songs ever, but the lyrics also go along with the ideas of fear that are permanent in my manga. Here are the lyrics for Enter Sandman:
Say your prayers little one
Don’t forget, my son
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
keep you free from sin
till the sandman he comes
sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

CHORUS
Exit, light
Enter, Night
Take my hand
we're off to never-never land

Something’s wrong, shut the light
heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren't of snow white
dreams of war, dreams of liars
dreams of dragon's fire
and of things that will bite
sleep with one eye open
gripping your pillow tight

CHORUS

SOLO

Now I lay me down to sleep (x2)
I pray the lord my soul to keep (x2)
If I die before I wake (x2)
I pray the lord my soul to take (x2)

Hush little baby, don't say a word
never mind that noise you heard
it's just the beasts under your bed
in your closet, in your head

CHORUS (replacing 'take....land with 'grain of sand)
CHORUS (done the normal way)

What do you think? If you have never heard this song, please try to find a way to hear it if at all possible. I want to get your full opinion on using this song. Are there any other themes you think would work better?

   See YYH Kenshin or FMA Last Night?
Yo! Sup'? Who saw Yu Yu Hakusho, Kenshin or Full Metal Alchemist last night? They were all awesome! The beatdown Yushke put on Sensui was FRIKKEN' AWESOME. Ruroni Kenshin was very emotional and deep. I wish I could write stories like that. Full Metal Alchemist was pretty heavy, it got pretty spooky at some parts. Anyone want to share their thoughts on what happened in these shows?

   Any Love Hina Fans Here?
Sup' everybody? I just got back from my weekly manga run with my buddy Josh (phantomlord882 by way of Otaku, please please please visit his site). Right now I am completely engrossed in the Love Hina series. The story is heart-warming, the conflicts are hilarious, the art is flawless, and the characters are fun and just so loveable! I just got finished reading the 3rd book and started on the 4th, and it was just so cute and funny! I personally love the character Mutsumi, especially when grouped in the presence of Keitaro and Naru. They seem to be a volatile and possibly lethal combination. I also love the characters Shinobu, Su and Mitsune, they seem to all have very unique yet contradicting personalities. Are there any other Love Hina fans here? Care to share your thoughts on this excellent manga/anime?

   Could You Help Me Out?
Yo everybody. Thanks to all you friends o' mine that helped me with my previous 2 questions. Like I said, you really helped out! I have another quick question for you guys today though. I need to ask you, what needs to be taken into consideration when designing a female anime character? What should be done with the personality and appearance? What traits make the reader love the character? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I have someone I need to mention. My new buddy by the Otaku name of Hyakkimaru is having a bit of trouble. If you could visit his site and talk with him or give him some prayer, that would be great. Thanks everybody.

   The Feature Factor
Thanks to everybody who helped me out yesterday. Thanks guys, you really do help when you comment. Many of you mentioned that it's important to include a little bit of "eye candy" for the girls in my male characters along with their personalities. This sounds like an excellent idea, but I have a slight problem. I'm a guy (that in it self often becomes a problem ^_^;), so I don't know what appeals appearance-wise to female readers. I know it's an awkward question, but what features make a character look cool? What should be done with hair length, stature, body weight and structure, facial features and mannerisms? I understood your other comments perfectly though, and thanks again to all of you who helped me out and commented! b^_^

   What Makes a Good Male Anime Character?
Yo everybody. BUSY weekend, sorry I wasn't around. Anyway, as you all know, I am currently developing my own manga. I have a question for all of my faithful anime friends out there. I need your help designing the characters. Here's the deal, I've noticed a lot of male anime/manga characters have a large fan following. Characters like Kurama, Kenshin, Sasuke, Vash, Marik, Spike, Hiei, Shesshomaru and Edward Elric seem to possess some sort of persona that has earned them a humongous fan following. Tell me, what makes a good male anime character? What qualities should they have, and what qualities should be left out? What is it about the characters I mentioned earlier that makes them so popular? Please help me out guys, the more detail you give the better. I really need your help.
