Speaking of which, Vexx, you still own us prove of the loli wife claim you make at MT.

spoilered for anyone fearful of seeing *anything* from the manga and there's a pic of Kona's parents in addition to some fashion pics from the comic

Well then, I stand corrected. Thanks for the scan and insight. I can now mark it down as a fun little coincidence.

(Note: There's a running gag that all KyoAni's women look similar and are only distinguishable by their hairstyles)

KyoAni primarily does adaptations. They are very far removed from the character design process, other than minor stylistic tweaks to streamline animation. Hairstyle, dialect, etc, are chosen by the original character designers long before KyoAni enters the picture.

Tell me who you are. Seriously. Maybe then I'll consider it.

Ask Monir. Otherwise this has been covered as, its tentatively not getting one.

By the way how does this Sig look. I thought I'd do this for a day. Deceitful, HA!

Yes, the people speaks that this anime needs its own forum... Its only 2 episode and has 73 pages... Also, I need an image topic for me to make lots of siggy...

Why don't they take Kanon of and then put this up. I suppose a swap-out couldn't hurt in the long run. Then when this is over they could swap out for Clannad. This is why I seriously think all could be solved by reserving slots for the major companies like Bones, Gonzo, Sunrise, Kyoto Animation and Gainax.

I hope I wasn't the only one who got a good chuckle out of Tsukasa and Kagami when they imagined Konata working in a fast-food restaurant.

If you ever go to a McDonald's in Japan, order a smile. It's on the menu and free of charge.

haha... actually scanned some pics in just now.... I'll give this forum first shot at it. Okay.. these are just thumbnails of a loli-tsundere-wife just to show they exist. Skip if you want:

Spoiler:

Okay... here's the woman I married (on our first vacation or two), she was 23 at the time:
and a bit of tsundere (she whacked me with her fan after that):
Here she is recently and you get a view of my ugly mug as a bonus (obligatory dress up pic):
and a candid shot (I think I got smacked after that too) of her feeding the backyard birds (in typical weather):

She's about 4'11", still weighs 95lbs like she did then ... her antennae have gotten more extensive and few of them are white.

I simultaneously worship the ground she walks and yet want to strangle her. I know she wants to strangle me often - not sure about the other.

When will I be able to go to the International Space Station without paying 20 mil for a ride? When will China go to the moon so the cost of space travel can become relatively cheaper? When will human land on Mars? When will Mars will be terraformed? When will Kaioshin Sama warm up to Key and Kyoto Animation, while simultaneously stop agitating a few fans of those names? When? When?

The answer to all those thought provoking question is: soon. Now please get back on topic.

Dude you look like a totally badass biker or something. Hot Blooded.

i've been accused of that (haven't ridden bikes in ages, they got no armor). Since that pic I dropped the mustache and grew out the rest of the hair for that Capital One barbarian look for SCA re-enactment and Ren Faire nonsense. She dresses as some fluff I picked up on a viking raid "somewhere east"

I dunno, I think I sensed a a contradiction between "soon" and "Kaioshin warming up."

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone thinks that Lucky*Star will go halfway following the 4-Koma adaption way and then switches to maybe a more plot/story driven type show? I mean, even if there's a lot of material to cover in the manga, there might be the possibility of getting stale like the "villain-of-the-ep" thing from Jigoku Shoujo.

[Vexx]

I dunno... Azumanga Daioh managed 24ish episodes covering 3 years of high school (lots happened yet nothing happened... so to speak).

Lucky*Star has managed 3 volumes (is the 4th out yet?) of funny without missing much of a beat..... really the series is much like Peanuts --- there's really nowhere to "go", its just life's little bits.

From a series perspective though, you kind of wonder how they'll handle the last episode (not that Paniponi Dash really "ended" either....).

Like I've put it in MT, LS is the AzuMan for the new breed of Otaku with the anime female archtypes and the moe designs.

Time does pass in LS if you look closely at it with the change in seasons and the character ages. Azuman had 3 years worth of run and this is the 3rd year for LS, so I have reason to believe that LS will be done with both it's anime and 4-koma run around the same time.
