3. Oh my gosh. I really admire you, I really do. ^^ Sometimes I just can't find it in myself to just keep on being immature or mean-spirited with a character, even though that attitude might be totally warranted, because people might get annoyed with him/her, and with me, as a result. Props. ^^

7. 8D Megatokyo... I dropped out when Largo started to angst. Dude. Not cool.

8. ALSKDJFAL;SJDFLASJDFLJA. STOP THAT. LEAVE THE DUB OUT OF ANY ARGUMENT YOU CAN THINK OF THEN WE'LL TALK. I was (and still am) a raving fangirl of Naruto, back when the PS3 was just a glimmer in the future, but I also have an unhealthy addiction to the DUB. Shockhorror! You know why? THEY SAY IT. RIGHT. ... Were you not even listening? Aaaall the way back in the sixth episode. "Tora, inu, uma, nee, hitsuji", remember? WORD FOR WORD, BITCH. Or even back to the second and third episodes. Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Ninjutsu? All present and accounted for, perfectly pronounced. Hell. They had Hinata say "nindou", rather than "the way of the ninja". I would've been damn happy with "way of the ninja", myself. They are trying so freaking hard to make all the fans happy, balancing translation quality with what sells on the American market, that one mistake could send them tumbling down into hordes of screaming fans. So when I see crap arguments like "The kids here watch the American Naruto" ----> "The American Naruto must be the cause of horrible pronunciations" when it's actually more like "Some kids who watch the American dub read manga and don't bother to learn proper Japanese" ----> "Most American kids are lazy idiots who speak mangled Fanbrat-anese", your point tends to go directly down my bullshit drain.

... Not that you don't have a point, in this case. 8D The next person, in fact, who I see saying "Nay-ruh-toe", gets a traditional Texan stranglin', courtesy of myself. ♥

11. ... Marluxia/Vexen. It was okay, at first. MAKE IT STOP. D= And the four-ear thing... well, in my manga project, that was the first problem I made sure to fix. >D No aural overload here, bitch.
