  1. It is nice you got a reply, I don't want to put a downer on it, but to be honest that response seems like Japanese polite phrasing for "I won't pay any attention to what you said and I'll do what I think is best".

    Yuki's blog

    so feeling far more comfortable with the truth about myself... I realised a lot more stuff that I hadn't noticed before. I don't even have an adam's apple. and my hands are small, and my feet are small. It's unbelievable how I haven't noticed a lot of this stuff sooner. It's amazing how one small bit of a chemical can change parts of our body so people will view us differently. There is so much about me that is completely female and just some small parts that looked male and yet those parts had the effect of overriding everything. to everyone else and to me. amazing. but the damage is being repaired anyhow. and things in general are looking up I guess. I am hoping to move house soon.... although this whole process is dragging along slowly.... but I'm optimistic that I can move within a month or two. I hope so anyway. some things happened that allowed my finances to be freed up and I was able to start sending out the guyver books that were backlogged, so I'm much happier about that situation. but my brain is holding me back a lot. I have to take medicine to be able to cope with my current living arrangements and it's making me so damn tired and confused. but what do they say, we just need to keep on trucking.
  3. hi, I did a search and found your email. I have now sent your scanlation.
  4. volume 30 tankoubon has been finished. I've spent a good few hours sending them out to everyone I could identify as having bought this volume. If I missed you, please let me know. Original translations provided by Durendal, Myself and I think Amika may have done some. Translation revisions and quality control done by myself and Aether. Typesetting performed by Lost Unit after BBude made a valiant effort but had to pass the baton due to work.
  5. pm is disabled until minimum number of posts is made. your member status will change to member+ and you can send PMs. it is mainly to stop people asking questions as soon as they sign up without first checking the FAQs.
  6. no, you didn't. don't even give it any thought, I have been building up to this for a few days now, trying to get it all straight in my head.
  7. I'm trying to think about the way to sort this out just now. if I focus, I think I can manage this today. I need to set up a pre-order, a pledge and a pledge transfer. first thing I need to do is log in to paypal and create a button for each. then i need to make a thread for vol 32. then I need to set up the system for creating the individual chapters and uploading them for everyone who goes on the list. Then I need to compile the list. Anyone who has already contacted me about this, please visit the thread once I have made it and post to remind me just in case I have missed you somehow. To be completely frank, my brain is like a swiss cheese recently.
  8. thanks for your input. I think this would be an excellent idea if the site was collecting a lot of ad revenue. unfortunately, I mostly pay for the whole thing out of my own pocket so there is no real fund with which to enact any kind of compensation scheme. also, it's not really a profit driven enterprise. it's mainly a voluntary and charitable thing. everyone who helps out is certainly appreciated for the help they lend to me and I always try to be grateful when I receive assistance.
  9. I'm really remorseful about this situation. as site admin I have to think about how this reflects on the community and of course it gives a bad taste for anyone who experiences this. I never thought of this community as a place where this kind of situation might arise but then that is probably a naive view. no place is free from issues. I can't assume that one party is at fault because I don't have all the information and unfortunately it is not really possible for me to do anything to rectify this situation or to make any provisions as I don't have all the data. I could assume that one party was at fault and do some kind of suspension or warning or whatever, but I simply can't make that judgement. I think the best thing any of us can do is advise caution. we used to have a notice on the classifieds forum but it doesn't seem to be there now. I don't understand why it is no longer present but I will make sure it is restored. we don't have a system to ensure people are trustworthy or to check to see what troubles they might be having in their day to day life. I certainly can't judge anybody else when I have a box full of guyver books still to0 send out. all I can do is say I'm really sorry this didn't work out well for you and to promise to put up a notice to advise caution.
  10. sorry for any delays etc, I've tried to make things clear in the following thread http://www.japan-legend.com/forum/index.php/topic/7985-guyver-vol-31-32-pre-order-transfer/'>http://www.japan-legend.com/forum/index.php/topic/7985-guyver-vol-31-32-pre-order-transfer/ some things have been going on in my life, but something new came to light today which means I can make some progress sending books out that have not yet been sent. I hope this means I can send them all and start on the next batch but I need to analyse the current situation. today has been a bit messed up. but anyhow, I am still on the case and this is all very important to me. I just need to approach it as best as I can with my current situation. I really hope this means I have the capability to send them all out within the next week but if not then I will get most of them sent. I don't want to jump the gun and let anyone down, that's all.
  11. I really love that belt, how it talks and has a little smiley face
  12. I agree with that message. I do use facebook a lot, but all my posts are set so that only my friends can see them, and I do not add anyone as a friend unless I know full well who they are and if I can trust them. I just put my name into google and there was nothing really linked to me. I put my name and my hometown in, and not really much. just a review I wrote of a local business. it's true you need to be careful. a lot of places I go, I don't use a username that is linked to other places. It's better to not leave a trail. And while I do allow microsoft cloud to sync my photos with my computer, I am careful what I take photos of.
  13. yeah fat old men do have feelings for sure and I might be happy to talk with a fat old man if he was honest and if he was respectful. but I also see the point that it could be somebody living out a deep desire to be treated like a woman, somebody who was cursed with the body of a man and looks in the mirror and sees this disgusting thing looking back at them... so they need to try and find some way to be the real them. damn, got me all upset now... hey I wasn't posting this for any kind of personal advice though, I was just using that as an example of potential danger! although I appreciate your words Aether (definitely appreciate it) I am more interested in your thoughts on the general aspects of this issue. like, there are these online games, that youngsters go on and it turned out there were sexual predators on there. scary stuff!
  14. something that has been on my mind recently. I wonder about how people can be very lonely in life but might not be able to find a safe place to express themselves. We all know there are predators online. we might think a particular website is safe and has lots of nice people, but then one of those members might not be what they appear to be. I had a recent issue when on an online dating site. I met a beautiful girl and she was capturing my heart big time. she was saying all the right things and I was really enjoying talking to her... until all of a sudden I realised, 'she' could be a fat old man. I panicked. I suddenly realised the only way I could be sure was if I spoke to her on skype. but of course, my mistrust made things really awkward and what could have been something special, crashed and burned. I really hate that it turned out that way, but of course, if it had been a fat old man... well it still could be, I never did find out. although I doubt a fat old man could talk to me in such a way. Anyway we have to be careful. people are not always what they seem. internet is not safe. streets are not safe. how do we find an outlet where we can express our feelings and be safe? What do you think?
  15. http://www.japan-legend.com/wiki/index.php?title=History_of_Guyver 2004 ; 23/04/2004 Max Factory Bio Fighter collection (BFC) Guyver III 2005 ; Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor TV series (06/08/2005) hmm... I never actually thought this before now but that was the 20th anniversary.
  16. do you remember when the max factory bio fighter collection came out? was it about the same time as the 2005 tv series? I think it was shortly before wasn't it?
  17. no, that's not what I meant! I mean this will be episode 47, right? this week. but there are 52 weeks in a year. !!
  18. did we miss 5 weeks along the way?
  19. I think the point of calling it hyper 3d, was referring to the quality of takaya sensei's solid construction work. That's the only sense i can make of it,.
  20. if they are consistent with their dates, then shonen captain would have been the 18th every month. shonen ace of course being the 25th? we would need more data to be sure. I think it is a safe assumption but if we want to say for definite then we need to see march issue and april.
  21. Hi Guyver1, really nice to have you here and providing some golden material! I'm really intrigued at the lack of blood on gregole's arms. that is pretty cool. 超パワーよã¿ãり!! super powered non serialised story!! ãƒã‚¤ãƒ‘ー3Dコミック!! Hyper 3D comic!! ガイãƒãƒ¼ãŠã‚り Guyver The end 次å·ï¼ˆï¼“月18日å·ï¼‰ã¯ï¼’月18日発売ã§ã™ã€‚ next issue(18th mar) on sale 18th feb. The other bits are merely advertising. a bit about female wrestling, something about an event at cinema square.
  22. Is it anything like Death Note? That was really gripping. yeah when I first watched Fairytail it was intended as a replacement for Naruto when Naruto came to filler stories. wrong reason to watch. It is similar to Naruto in ways but it is very much it's own thing.
  23. http://www.japan-legend.com/forum/index.php/topic/7912-kamen-rider/?p=88459 yep, I've never watched it before. I couldn't rewatch such a long series! I tried watching it a long time ago but I found it to be lame and not different enough from Naruto. More recently I was just looking at different manga on my phone, just for kicks while on the train or something. I found Fairytail manga to be quite engaging, nice art and good story telling. I also realised that the main protagonist was not Natsu, but Lucy. I can really appreciate a lead female character in a story that has action and comedy and depth. Also, Lucy is like a real girl, not some fake fan service. she likes girly things and also can be boisterous and not shallow at all and I can really relate to her. So I decided to watch the anime because I can get through it quicker. The beginning parts were still quite lame. not keen on the opening story lines and I could take it or leave it, but now I got past the story on Galuna island with Gray's back story. This makes me feel very differently about the show now. The world is taking on more form and the characters are richer.

    Hey heyz

    It's such a nice introduction why did nobody respond to what you told us? ah well. nice to have you with us I do also think the first act of the OVA was the best presentation of Guyver. Without it, I might not be a fan. It was so well made; with passion.
  25. it was ok I think but they changed the writers part way through so it took a nose dive. that's my understanding of it. one to be avoided. my favourite part about IXA was how it transformed. The way the face plates moved was so cool. That's a similar reason to why i liked KR kabuto.
