Big secret 1

You sound like a bitch :D :D :D

14. THE SEXY INDIAN GENETICIST ROCKS MY WORLD. ♥

18. Ouch. That makes me really, really sad.

[morinzilion.livejournal.com]

19. The art is so awesome looking. Might get into it just because of that. XD From the wikipedia entry, it sounds interesting. And it's not too long, so I won't get bored half-way through

[lostremnant.livejournal.com]

1. Sounds interesting. I'd probably lose every time though. Heh.

10. Oh don't tell me you're one of those Westerners who think that EVERYTHING that Asians do is perfect and wonderful whereas everything Westerners do suck? I mean I have seen some really horrible Japanese doujinshi. Let's keep things in perspective here.

11. When someone first mentioned this pairing it was like a lightbulb went off in my head. I thought, "yeah Vincent and Reeve! That's perfect!".

18. South Park? Those pictures are suppose to be South Park? Sheesh I don't even watch South Park and even I find those pictures insane.

21. Amazing isn't it.

19... heard_of_it

6. I've done that! :D It was so much fun. I need some goldfish to do it again.

[friendshipbeam.livejournal.com]

1. You are awesome.
10. Hey, I like world manga and doujinshi...
17. ...you make me so glad I only read the first happy-joy-no-creepy-gore volume of Narutaru.

10. I work at an arts and crafts store, and today while stocking, I picked up a "How to Draw Manga" book. Pricing it and laying in on the shelf was quite possibly one of the hardest things I've ever done. I hate those stupid "how to draw manga" books because what they're teaching people to draw is "American Manga", if that makes sense. The characters in those books are drawn manga style, but it's so obvious they were drawn by an American. I can't explain it, but the look is different, and I sincerely hope no one buys that book. Urgh.

Not sure if this was very relevant to your secret or not, but I wanted to get it out.

[(Anonymous)]

One of my friends bought one when she was starting out. It actually did help her, and she's a pretty good artist now. And thank god, her drawings look nothing like the author's.

It was like a hybrid of typical shoujo manga and 80s/90s American cartoons; more of a Japanese-inspired style than authentic. And the styles differ from artist to artist anyway, so I don't really get why he'd try to stuff it all into one book. He sold his way of drawing, not the Japanese way, and I don't think it should have been labeled manga because it wasn't.

[kyaa.livejournal.com]

14. YES

18. l-lol

19. The art was gorgeous for that manga, but damn it sucked. Hahaha. Waste of money if you ask me :/ ("I AM IN LOVE WITH MY RAPIST WHO ALSO KILLED MY MOTHER/FATHER")

[zoom-gas.livejournal.com]

13. ME TOO I WOULD LOL SO FUCKING HARD
17. who doesn't?
18. I KNOW RIGHT???? Ughhh I am so sick of seeing western animation anime-fied. They turn all the delightfully unattractive fellows into bishounen (which is a retarded word btw)

[(Anonymous)]

#11 - I looked at this and thought ad_interim because that's the only place I ever loved the Reeve and Vincent

Re:11

[(Anonymous)]

Me too. That Reeve was too angsty sometimes (and made me cry, in a good way almost) but I got to admit, the Vincent made that pairing worth it.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm kinda squicked how more people are upset by 18 by 17. LOL DESENSITIZATION

[militarypenguin.livejournal.com]

I dunno, compared to a lot of the other gory stuff you see, it could be a lot worse. Could've been detailed as hell with her belly opened and her internal organs showing or eyeballs hanging out of their sockets by thread or--

yeah it's desensitization

[dusk.livejournal.com]

10 I ... draw doujinshi all the time, and I'm American. It's just a term for a fan-comic.

18 WHAT THE MOTHERFUCKIGNFUCKajkfhaksfsf

[emptybackpack.livejournal.com]

9. I am feeling that right now. It's the feeling you get when you find out that one of the patterns you purchased probably has a higher IQ than you do and is now beating you up with interfacing and foot changes. -hug-

[infi-inficio.livejournal.com]

18. WHAT

But... the art isn't bad. Still, it's South Park.

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

11. .... is this an ad_interim secret? *dies* 'cause if so... I'm blushing like mad. xD Those were fun times, and I did have a tendency to overdo the Reeve angst, but I REGRET NOTHING. Except overdoing the angst. Maybe. Either way, talk to us? I don't bite, I swear! The chances of resuming that aren't high, but I am always happy to meet other Reeve/Vincent fangirls. <3

... also, I own the doujinshi you made the image off of. 7th Trace does the BEST doujinshi. *_*

[shahni.livejournal.com]

*dies* I'd probably do it if I had a Vincent muse left, and a place to. I haven't quite written Vincent for a long time this year.

JESS LET'S REVIVE STUFF. D:

[liltigre.livejournal.com]

Also, because I'm a tard and forgot...

10) Why? Doujinshi made in other places than Japan can be quite good, really, depending on subject and such. The problem is that we're also influenced by US comics and such, and that shows a bit in layout, but domestic doujinshi have good potential.

[penumbra.livejournal.com]

20 - It's not really that it's nothing like the comics, it's that it was really poorly-written.

[dia-aren-marie.livejournal.com]

1. I always wanted to play Scrabble again... :( I have nobody to play with. Le sigh. But with fandom words only? Oh would that be wonderful~

2. ...XD *is Asian* I was wondering if anybody ever thought like that. NOW I KNOW.

3. :X I smell bias. I mean, I see what you mean, but dude, there's some pretty bad Japanese doujinshi out there. As for the word itself, it's just a term.

13. xD! This secret made me giggle.

18. I'm hardly surprised by this anymore D: Seen it years ago... it wasn't so shocking until I found out there was such a huge fanbase... and the fact the way they draw or write them is barely like the original? Meh.

20. I enjoyed the movie. :)

[pariah164.livejournal.com]

Y. A million times Y. IAWTS.

Mohinder, Sylar, Peter, HRG/Noah, Isaac, Ando...

THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY HOT MEN ON THIS SHOW.

(Notice I didn't put NATHAN in that list XD)

[maiku84.livejournal.com]

18.) Why is Stan Shinn Asuka from Gundam SEED DESTINY? Seriously, the picture at 12 o'clock just needs a girly pink cell phone and it could be mistaken for Gundam fanart.

[monochroma.livejournal.com]

LOL @ 18.


Skinny Cartman 8D? *has never seen fanart of South Park*. BUT YEAH. WTF :|. They became...hot bishie guys o_O;;

#21 is true to teh world. I just declare, as long as someone's cock goes into someone's butt, it's all fine 8D.

[fireholly.livejournal.com]

14 - WORD. I've seen about three episodes of Heroes, didn't find either Petrelli particularly interesting to look at, but GOD. MOHINDER IS DELICIOUS.
