  1. micartu, thank you for the covers. please search the forum for topics with the 'chapter' tag on them. there you will find the chapters.
  2. well TVN is taking their time with it as usual. I just don't see why they can't forget about the karaoke for the first episode. They can always add the karaoke in when they do their batches.
  3. I watched the first one and I found it to be quite dull. But this new costume has piqued my interest. I don't know why some people say it looks similar though. it looks completely different! this is like steve ditco vs mark bagley. rhino and electro? interesting, reminds me of a few issues I saw around the time of the clone saga. Perhaps they'll lead into something interesting... like maybe an inclusion of the scarlet spider and other dudes like that.
  4. You have a wisdom they do not. You now how to value the people you talk to and that is why they value your opinion. They trust you. That is a special thing. Another thing to think about is that... when people ask for advice, what they are actually asking for is a different perspective to help them make up their own mind. don't worry about the advice you give to people. s log as you are honest that is exactly what people need.
  5. the best way to approach this in my view, is to ignore the crowd. never speak to a crowd because a crowd is too big. speak to the individuals within the crowd. take it in turns talking to each different person or just a few within the crowd. Then make sure you are interested in what you are talking about. your enthusiasm should help you.
  6. journey to korea! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etWE7LbaJU0
  7. It could be that. but I don't know. my phone is an Iphone 4. I thought Apple made these things to work in many countries. I mean, what point is it for them to bring out a product that will not suit a high end business client who may visit many countries? maybe it's an efficiency thing though. Oh yes... ha ha that image does make a little more sense now! though, I did not get emotional in that way. I only generally tend to get overwhelmed with emotion when I am happy. In situations when I may get sad, I usually channel it and transform it into affirmative action.
  8. Uranus guided humans to turn into zoanoids and zoalords. would it not be unusual to assume Archanfel isn't basically human at his core?
  9. yeah I went to a church service there. I'll talk more about that later . about the pavements. here is the first video I have uploaded. it's about the pavements. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_utg0VtOOI yep, I had a translator. a pretty damn good one. I used it all the time in Wrexham when speaking with Polish people. it's google translate app in my iphone. the main issue there... is that my phone would not connect to any networks in South Korea. This is the most stupid thing to be honest. I had checked with my network about options for possibly using my phone etc. they said roaming could get expensive but I could use it for a while. well to use roaming, you have to get the phone to accept a connection first. ridiculous. I did have a phrase book, but I hadn't invested the time in it to make it very useful. it took me way too long to find what I needed.
  10. quite shocking at first.. but then it is a great explanatory tool. This building has hints at Japanese styling (the air-con being above the window and the design of the air-con unit). It is a very good pointer that Apollon is Imakarum and that he has memories of his old life. now we know that Imakarum had memories as he recognised Shou et al, but we weren't sure how much memories. Now we are clear that he has concept of home, comfort, and caring. Also has concept of free will to a certain extent. he made some effort to ensure that the Segawa siblings were present at least in some part voluntarily. Though.... he continues to hide his identity. I find this an interesting thing to ponder. What could his motive be to hide his identity? If he wanted to, he could have revealed his identity. on one hand, it serves the purpose of the story, by keeping him a mystery, but on the other hand, we do not know Takaya sensei to do things arbitrarily and just for the sake of mystery. it has to have an internal logic. Thanks Cannibal, Lost Unit.
  11. plans here, probably the same but probably easier. for me at least. I'll have to give that some focused thought very soon. Aether please phrase it more like this :- How you said it seems as though it was a wasted venture, but it was far from wasted. I have learnt so much. I learnt that I love kids. I will miss those guys. I learnt that my family thinks more of me than I realised. I learnt how to deal with multiple new situations. I learnt how to get past some of my hang-ups. I learnt that happiness is more closely related to individual people than arbitrary locations. I gained a degree of personal strength and also learnt of some of my weaknesses and am able to accept them. I learnt a lot more things than this but I am of course still processing.
  12. I was there.... I'll say 5 days. 1 day was a half day, in Suji-gu, 2 days teaching, saturday sleeping all day, sunday was spent in Seoul then slept overnight in the airport before the 12 hour flight to London. I do intend to write some blogs with my photos as the basis, but that is also a good idea. a day by day account.
  13. fascinating. so we may see evolution in action here. survival of the fittest. in terms of behaviour of course. we will see the birds that choose not to eat plastic, survive. it's amazing to see nature at work.

    the topic title probably doesn't help you in searching for covers. might be best to make a thread with the request clearly in the title. it might take a while too. who knows who has what?
  15. here is some pictures. I intend to write some short blogs for the photos I took but i'll throw some at you for now.
  16. komap sunmida guys. anyeung hasseyo! It's nice to see so many questions. but I have to tell you all something. Work did not go too well and things got difficult with my co-workers. In order to prevent an unbearable situation, I have come home to the UK. That doesn't mean I don't have some of 'the goods' for you though. First thing. IT'S COLD. The whether was persistently sub-zero. it was different from cold in the uk though. In the UK, if it is 3 degrees, it feels cold. in south Korea it can be minus 6 degrees and it feels the same as the UK. probably something to do with the air moisture content. You'll see some of the snow in one of my videos. coming later. second thing, Koreans do not seem to be remotely interested in foreigners. Many of them have a decent rudimentary understanding of english. nothing like Japan. In Japan, most people have knowledge of english grammar etc, but are terrified to say even the slightest thing in English. the people I asked for help identifying the right route to Seoul, seemed to have a clear knowledge and working ability of giving direction and asking basic questions. Aside from that though, a foreigner didn't seem to be of any interest to them. it was just a person. This is true of Men and Women. I saw a few pretty girls, but they had no interest in me whatsoever. Then again, Korean society has less of a focus on that way of looking at people, you know they don't have adult materials so their relationships all seem more 'pure' somehow. also there is a big Christian revival going on there so a lot of them are probably very religious. Durendal, let me tell you, you may think it looks weird at first, but Hangeul is very very simple. for example this is hangeul for seoul - ì†Œì„ S - ã…… EO - ã…— U - ã…‡ + ã…¡ L - ㄹ I disagree on your friends opinion though, but I am not suggesting their perception is wrong. I have seen pictures of various countries around the world and Korea is clean compared to many. compared the the UK however, it is dingy and the pavements are terrible. There are some beautiful buildings but then the pavement across the street is in a terrible state. It is definitely less clean than Japan. and don't even mention Singapore. It is not a massive leap though. you'll see in one of my videos. I made a point to show the pavements in one video and compared it to the high rise executive buildings. About the people being nice.... for a large part this is true, but as has been alluded to.. xenophobia. yes I experienced something odd. I'm not sure I can say it was xenophobia because it could have been something else, but anyway here is what happened. I was by Seoul station looking for a nice coffee place with a good view. I saw a second floor establishment from the street, their sign said in english " hot food and coffee" so of course I went in. I looked around a little and wasn't sure if I order first and sit down or if I sit down and order from the table etc. I waited for the staff. they arrived and started gesturing. I wasn't sure, but then i saw they were gesturing towards the door. so I gingerly pointed to the door, they nodded, I walked towards the door slowly, they nodded. I walked out. the door closed. and that was it. They were saying something but I do not know what they were saying.
  17. up until now, haven't really heard any music. I'll keep an eye out for it. The people.... met some nice people, met some abrupt people. I don't really know what I expected. I suppose I based my ideas from seeing Koreans on TV. I thought specifically of the character 'Han' in the sitcom 'two broke girls'. The abrupt people I met were in a shop that looked like it had electricals and bikes. I'm thinking these were some of the people with attitude that one might expect to see everywhere. It wasn't that they were mean, I just got a sense that they weren't really pleased about my presence.
  18. Thanks for your comments guys, I'll make a better reply once I've had some more time.
  19. The purpose of this thread is to give an insight into Japan's neighbour South Korea. Also known as Republic of Korea or ROK, and in Japan known as 韓国ã€ã‹ã‚“ã“ãã€KANKOKU。 Please ask any questions about anything you are curious about and I'll endeavour to answer. I will also try and post my videos in here. I'm not quite in Korea yet, I am waiting for my first flight to Dubai. Second flight will take me to Incheon airport in Seoul.
  20. certainly I'm glad you enjoyed it!
  21. I can see people are eager to have a wonderful animation, but please remember that animation is not simple. What odin has come up with so far is certainly more than adequate and is not too dissimilar to beat em up games of the past. I think it might be better not to be too precious over the finery of the animation as odin has still got a lot on his plate. I think the specifics of fine animation could be talked about more if a person decided to take on the role of dedicated animator?
  22. oh, I forgot to say, the health bar does look good. it's pretty clear and easy to read.
  23. question. life bar... indicating damage done to the body versus speed of healing? but is there any thought given to powerful hits to the control metal? is this something that will feature?
  24. give a man a fish, you can feed him for a day, but try and force it down his throat and he will probably try to knock you out. on a more serious note though, many of the kids who don't want to go usually has a deeper reason. the teacher doesn't recognise their difficulty and puts them under extreme pressure for example. sorry to be off topic. maybe we can talk about it in a new topic if people are interested?

    indeed, I don't feel like I have done a lot of work on the wiki when compared to what Durendal has done. Ok, so I did initialise the layout and put a lot of foundation in. I did guide some areas and constructed some of the pages with the manga images etc. but the actual content is most important and that was mostly put there by other people. Zoanoid and character bios, v-guyver has done some good original work on those, and .... I can't find the person now, but another person was trying to encourage people to write character bios. I have a sense for who it is... I know i will kick myself when I realise who it was. but that person did help to motivate some other members to contribute. was it alpha omega? was it larz? was it odin? was it mirabilis? damn, I cannot recall. hmm... i think it was mirabilis. yes that is feeling correct. It is the members who make this site. that is the best thing about the wiki. if it is just one person contributing, it is limited. with more people, more stuff can be done.
