Kana Hanazawa... yeah, stunningly cute there.....

Oh and if I haven't said elsewhere - points for your post after watching that stupid kids-dance-video: "Hey, I'm not attracted to kids, I guess this means that the people who accuse me of being a pedo because I like tiny but mature girls are idiots".
Because, yes, they are idiots.

Thanks for the post then.

Happy birthday~

I haven't listened to it closely enough to try my hand at translating it. I was just saying I'd love to have a Kagamin-voiced GPS with a personality. I'll listen more closely when I get a moment and see what I can pick out.

Its kind of funny -- tsundere is an ancient staple of American romantic comedies and the roots go back to Shakespeare at least.

So.... was Avatar a fabulously budgeted Ferngully for you? I loved the movie but (like many anime) its not like I'm a nationalist fanboi for it

Oh god... I would so love a tsundere GPS. This was hilarious.

As the poster says,
"I-it's not like I'm giving you directions because I like you or anything... I was just... going that way anyway..."

Happy New Year! Hope it is filled with great tidings of moe for you!

Anything equal to or better than a 8600GTS should be fine though you may have to turn some stuff off.... it seems to auto-config okay (though I'm running a 9600GT and my son is running 8600GTS). Both console and PC were released at the same time... so I'm not sure which path the development happened on. The UI is fine on a PC though.

Dragon Age ... I'm holding off a bit (maybe for Christmas). I mean its Bioware and has RPG depth but there's some concern about the "Premium Downloadable Content" (see Penny Arcade rants).

Borderlands (now that its patched)is just a lot of fun... kind of a Diablo meets L4D meets Fallout with FPS. Some lovely subversive humor in it and a broadstroke graphic novel feel.

Other than that, not much --elsewise I've been playing:
Torchlight ($20 Steam dungeon crawl), Dungeons&Dragons Online (its free now), and a couple of F2P MMOs (Perfect World, Neosteam, etc).

I'm trying to avoid subscription MMOs since I don't play that often.

I've been stewing on your taxonomy proposal... but really I think the labels are suffering from the "pre-Copernican revolution problem". There's so much duct tape that the labels are insufficient anymore. All they're good for is to say "Character X exhibits some traits from various archetypes: Tsundere, Moe, Yandere, blahblahblah"

I have the same problem with genre labels: "shounen" doesn't tell me anything anymore other than what the publisher thinks their target audience is. The extreme variation of what gets published is far outside of the basic "strutting, shouting, explosions" part of the Venn diagram.

Oye.... that's a heart stopper. Surely its a cropped of a bigger image... only complaint is that she has human ears so I'm assuming she's wearing the kitsune ears.
