Weekend Fun!
| Anime Word of the Day | Yuri (百合?) and shoujo-ai (少女愛 shōjo-ai) are jargon terms amongst otaku for lesbian content, possibly sexually explicit, in anime, manga, and related fan fiction. The word yuri literally means "lily", and is (like many flower names) a relatively common Japanese feminine name. In Japanese, the term is typically used to mean any attraction between girls in entertainment media, whether sexual or romantic, explicit or implied. The term shoujo-ai is not usually found in this context outside of Western fandom. In America, the term "yuri" is usually used to represent the explicit sexual content. Meanwhile, the term "shoujo-ai" is used to describe the more romantic aspects of lesbian affairs.

Opening Act:
Happy weekend! Whoohoo! We all made it to the weekend safe and sound! Well at least mostly safe and sound! Actually this was a pretty dull week for me, I didn’t really do anything that exciting. Unless you count cleaning my house and since I don’t you don’t have to either. LoL Though I have been introduced to a new anime called KIBA, but I haven’t had a chance to watch it with subtitles yet. But the raws look really good, and the show sounds like a lot of fun. Has anyone else seen it?
New Works:
Hmm I don’t honestly know if two of these count as new or not. LoL A few of you requested them so I went ahead and posted copies of my last bg and this one as wallpapers for those of you interested. I also was playing around with some brushes and Sousuke again, so another Full Metal Panic wallpaper in my Portfolio as well. It’s a rather cute on, but I’m not sure it makes a good wallpaper, but I did like the way it appears on small screen. So I share and let you guys decide. ^^
Epilogue
Aww I’m really glad you guys like the new design. I hoped it tied everything in nicely together. Especially since I don’t update every day so when I do it tends to be a bit long. I wanted to make it a good clean read for everyone. With luck this design will help with that.
And yes that’s really Crispin Freeman, I loved everyone’s reaction by the way. He doesn’t look a bit like his voice does he? It just blows me away every time I see him and hear him talk! That’s actually one of the reasons I wanted to do this section I love seeing folks reactions at cons when they see the voice actors. Some are just so stunned they forget how to talk! LoL Oh and points for Reno in remembering he was the voice of Rude in Advent Children! ^^ I completely forgot that one! LoL
MamaVash – Oh I so need to check out that book, I’m hoping to go to B&N tomorrow so I’ll be sure to check around and see if they have a copy. I just love books like that! Especially since I have this selective memory and I too easily forget stuff I should remember. Books are good things! ^^
Bunraku you commented you hadn’t thought of chess in regards to FMP before…that was kind of an odd choice for me as well. I was looking for a way to pull the wallpaper together and well for me warfare and chess have always gone hand and hand. So I ended up placing them together…and I just love that bullet brush. Hehehe
Random Question:
What was the last movie you saw in the theater? And did you enjoy it?

Alright by special request this time our voice actor is Vic! ^^ Now this guy is just hilarious in pretty much everything he does. Even in his own website design. If you have a second I highly recommend clicking on the photo of him and visiting his site. If only to see his adorable opening video welcoming fans to his site. ^^ He’s a crack up! I will admit I’m not as familiar with Vic’s work as I am some other actors but I do love his portrayal of Ed Elric in Full Metal Alchemist! He managed to create a great voice for the shortie!
