Hanataba Mitai ni Daite Kure 1

The tale of the clumsy president and his capable president who initially sent mixed messages with the sending of the wilted flowers, but that was for appearances. Loved the presidents faces and reactions (his cool leader moment), as well as their Elevator scene but vision and actual. Felt like one of the better ones of the mix.
 

Angry Grimace

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
I'm mostly just ribbing Kurita about it, but you guys are aware that Eyeshield 21 isn't critically acclaimed right? I remember when it was still running and everyone complained how much it sucked every week.

Now I'm imagining an old guy on his deathbed mournfully saying "my only regret is that I never read Fruits Basket!" with his final breath...

The best one!
Truly a masterpiece in Man's history.
It goes like this :
The Great Pyramids -> Walking on the Moon -> upandaway's birth -> Eyeshield 21

I remember someone I knew being really affected by the explanations in ES21, something about training by kicking stones. I don't know man. I don't know about that part.

Baek-Yeom confrontation. Funny I wouldn't have a clue about his name if he didn't say it.

To be fair, I found the full list of manga (scroll down to "Japan") in that "1001 comics you must read" book, and it's actually pretty comprehensive, at least more than I thought when flipping through it in the store.

The list isn't that bad. Some hipster choices like Blue and Red Colored Elegy and he seems to be trying to pick titles from all types of demographics and genres to be comprehensive. A little quality control wouldn't hurt like taking out trash like Lady Snowblood, Naruto or YGO, but I suppose he wanted to give representation to some popular titles.

GAF didn't work for me all morning.

Then I spent 2 hours trying to remember my password.

Now I can /afk in this thread.

Yeah. When I read it in the bookstore I must have skipped over a lot of those

I should try using a pw manager... at the moment I'm using a crytography system I devised myself which is probably super easy to break :T

And Kuroko will only be good if it reaches Prince of Tennis level powers
What's so unique about Prince of Tennis?

*looks up Prince of Tennis wiki*

Saiki Kanpatsu no Kiwami (Pinnacle of Great Wisdom): One of Muga no Kyōchi's 3 doors and a singles-only technique. The user gains the ability to foresee and predict the number of shots needed for a point. It could be that Saiki Kanpatsu is gained after overcoming a physical disability, like how Hyakuren Jitoku is obtained after hard work. Chitose lost sight in one eye. Tezuka injured his shoulder and elbow and went into rehabilation. Echizen had lost his memory

it aint even my final form

This is the final door of Muga no Kyōchi's 3 doors. According to Nanjirō, everyone is in Teni Muhō the very first time they play tennis. A player loses it as he becomes too preoccupied with winning and losing. It can be regained when he forsakes the outcome of the match and is simply having fun playing tennis.

This is why it's amazing though.

But, yeah, just turn your brain off if you ever try it.

On the subject of Tennis I wanna say I really like the Baby Steps OP. It's not the best animated thing but the song is good and it just makes me feel really fuzzy for some reason.

yeah i want to use one too but im not sure which one i should use
I use 1Password because I got it cheap, and it's good, but people in the OS X Apps thread recommended LastPass as a great free equivalent (and it's not OS specific).
 
I think I'm sticking with this avatar. Might need some cleaning up but I've settled into it well.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Also Tasogare re-read probably starting tomorrow. Rage Town hiatus while happy things are happening this week.
