  1. I like the Japanese dub. :)

     

    And here I thought the Nippon love fest was over.

     

    I've always seen the "Nippon love fest" as you call it more of a generational thing. I remember back in the original days of Toonami on American Cartoon Network. A lot of people grew up watching anime, which was was pretty huge at the time. Lots of it on TV, which is rare by today's standard. In fact, there was a huge movement where people were demanding more uncut anime titles, no more westernizing or dumbing things down.
    In fact, back then, high speed internet wasn't around like it is now. People couldn't just stream entire episodes of an anime or anything. Unless you knew how to get your hands on a bootleg copy of an anime or something similar, your only portal to stuff like that was through the TV. Even today, there is something about putting anime on TV that makes it more well known than straight-to-video releases.

     

    And there might be another generation of Japan love happening again. Toonami is back, although on Adult Swim these days, with lots of new anime titles.

     

    I'm wondering if they gave AJ, Big Mac & AppleBloom Osakan accents, since that is depicted as the Japanese equivalent to the American south in most dubbed anime.  

     

    Ah, you mean the Kansai dialect. Yes, everyone agrees, even the Japanese bronies themselves. The Apples should've had that dialect, but they weren't given any special dialect. They just speak normally, save for the occasional "Yeehaw!" and what have you.

  2. Oh Shainresa11, there you go again making topics asking about our OCs, and I just love you for it! It makes us feel like someone cares, even if we didn't put that much effort into our OC's, it's great knowing someone cares!  :lol:

     

    My FC defends/fights using mostly magic and some "hoof-to-hoof" skills. He has a fire spell (it just stuns/gives a light burn, nothing lethal), a horn extending spell, a limited amount of teleportation magic, and some basic levitation. Anything else, he usually compensates for by wearing armor and horseshoes, but it also helps that he's really handsome. :smug:

  3. Is L&T earned or given?

     

    ...it's tested. Definitely tested. And if you've never felt like it's been tested, or if it's been way too easily lost, then you never had that much of it in the first place. And that's probably the real problem.

     

    Love and tolerance is a great thing to have, just practice what you preach.

  4. Anime needs more samurai characters...

     

    For now, I really like these characters: Himura Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin, and Kazuki Muto from Buso Renkin.

     

    And I know it was a game series before it was an anime series, but I also kind of like Yukimura Sanada from Sengoku Basara.

  5. ...
    *Reads my own username*

    Yeah, I think my answer is obvious...

    FRANCE! :D

    J/K! ^_^ Actually, I really want to go to Japan some day. Still having the hardest time figuring out which part of Japan I should visit first...

    Although, I guess France would be a close second option. That or Italy...

     

    When I was a kid, I use to dream of traveling across the world and seeing everything I could. Seems like a bit too much these days.

  6. Sonic fan? I've got "Echidna" in mine as well. :)

     

    You know it!

    In fact, like I said when I introduced myself at the Welcoming Plaza, I was a Sonic fan long before I was a brony. My fan character, and my username just about everywhere else, has always been Samurai Echidna. But I made a pony version just before joining the brony community. Thus, Samurai Echidna became Samurai Equine. I kept the S.E. initials! :lol:

  7. I make it a point to avoid judging people, as long as they aren't harming others or doing something illegal.

     

    There are plenty of people who get under my skin and sometimes I want to bop them on the head or something, but I never act on that. I want to give people the benefit of the doubt. I want to remember that I'm not always right and I wasn't always as smart as I am now. I want to give people the freedom they need to just be themselves. If I did judge or acted out on my frustrations, that would not make me a better person nor would it make me a good friend.

     

    Someone once said that if you can't befriend the people you despise the most, you shouldn't be making friends at all. That saying is a HUGE exaggeration, but there is some truth to it. You will attract more bees with honey that with spite, and you might be surprised how many trolls out there really just need a friend.

  8. Short introduction, but that doesn't make you any less welcome. Thanks for joining and we hope you enjoy your stay! ^_^

  9. Welcome to the forum! Don't worry about any social problems you have. If you are making friends, then you're all right.
    And I like Sunset Shimmer too. Not so much because of her personality, but because I love her color scheme. ^_^

  10. Welcome to the forum! I am sure you will find plenty of people to help you out with your character, but if you still need it, I'm willing to help out any time. :D
