6- I have nothing against FOB, but I hope this is a secret about how ironic it is.

13- You wouldn't be the first person, I have a commission of them waiting on my desk.

24- I'm sorry.

34- I think...I'd leave out the dad part (or say something like "It was like you were my dad") but just saying "Hey, my life sucked, and this was what I needed" I would hop he'd appreciate that alot.

41- The game sucks, yet fandom (Something you can, uhm...ignore) made you quit playing? Uh huh.

42- You have some awesome character, but Hinata? Gimme a break. Kinda kills your point. Sakura's not perfect, but she has just as much awesomness, if not more, then Hinata.

47- That movie it's what makes me lol at any anime fans who say everything Disney produces is shit. It's a work of art.

49- Agreeded. And I tend to read young adult fantasy a lot, so I'm comparing from the same genre.

Sakura has never had a My Name is Inigo Montoya moment. Well, the first four-fifths of one, anyways.

[identity profile] penguinfaery.livejournal.com 2008-04-14 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
True, but neither of them could ever compare to his awesome.

I don't hate Hinata (I actually am pretty neutral on her, as I am on Sakura. I find her boring but see the appeal) but she's not exactly a gushing epitome of awesomeness that makes Sakura pale in comparison. Which just makes it an "I like her better" secret which takes out a lot the point. "I like these girls better"=/="These are better females"

Hinata was one I was hesitant to put in, but I decided to in the end for reasons stated here:

The link was broken, but I'm assuming I'm replying to the right one (Page 2, a forth of the way downish?)

It's not that I dislike Hinata. It's that there's nothing really WRONG with Sakura. In a genre FULL of weak and cliched females, you picked a serise where all of them are...fairly realistically filled out, give or take.

As for Sakura, even thought she doesn't kick ass that much until after time skip (Which, btw, she actively worked at. She did fight in the chuunin just the same as Hinata, so saying Hinata fought isn't really meaning anything...everyone fought.) But I also think you're underestimating the emotional impact she has on Naruto in the story, wether positive or negative.

As for the screen time argument: We ONLY see Hinata, pretty much, when she's doing something. She's only IN the manga when she has a point. If Sakura went away every time she wasn't actively doing something the ratio'd balance out a lot more. Just because mot of Hinata's useless is off screen doesn't negate it's exsistance. (I don't think Sakura's useless....all the time, but if you want to look at it that way, there ya go)

41 OP

I'm a determined bitch who tries to finish the crappiest of crappy games just so I feel I didn't waste my precious money.
It's hard to ignore when your friends are in it and cramming it down your throat all the damn time so you can't enjoy the game without some fangirl's poorly written porn lingering in the back of your mind.

TL;DR I wasn't trying to play it just to watch pretty FF/Disney characters prance around.

I didn't assume you were. And I have had plenty of friends stuff things down my throat (Helloooo Gackt). You draw a line between "Being a good friend" and "Being a push over."

And either way, it's not the GAMES fault. The game is an inanimate object.

Well, that's a much better way to put it. 8D Er, I guess I'll try that during the next convention, but I think I'd still feel way too shy to say anything like that. =3 Thanks.

I'd write em. I'm sure they don't get so much fanmail it'd get lost, and unless he's somehow different from most anime people I've reacted with, he'll probably apperciate it alot (Specially since most letters are likely "DUBS SUCK OMG!" I'm sure it'd be niuce to get a "Hey I know it wasn't perfect but it meant a lot to me.")

And I'm really happy you had it ♥

Not the OP, but I agree so hard with that comment. =)

It's probably not my favorite Disney movies, but some of those scenes (Particularly Hellfire and God help the Children) are so beautiful animated (And uhm...NOT for kids. Really, it doesn't have to be Japanese to have mature overtones.)
