  1. Another one of my recent favorites. Meet me Halfway by the Black Eyed Peas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_A_arjPCKXA&feature=fvst
  2. Here's one from Yukie Nakama. This song was used as the opening of Rockman X4. Not sure if anyone has heard of this, but I prefer the Original Japanese Opening compared to the lousy metal BGM of the US version. That MTV was a little bit bland. So here's the Rockman X4 version. A little short, but makes the song look cooler. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BacTWKYpvOU
  3. Now here is something you don't see everyday. Mario vs Airman (from Rockman) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBEiS9oSnuw
  4. Before I proceed, I thought about using this layout for the page: =History - something like publication history =Synopsis =Character ==Protagonist - Just a gist of the characters, with each character having their own page. Similar for the rest of the characters below, or just a link redirecting to a page dedicated to the characters. ==Cronos ===Hyper Zoanoid Team 5 ===12 Holy Commander ==Zeus Thunderbolt ==Others =Terminology - Just the usual terms like Zoaforms, Zoanoid, Hyper Zoanoid, Lost Number, Zoalord etc. with short information and all linking to other pages for more detailed information. Information about the Guyver (like control metal, Bioboost Armor, etc) can also be placed here with links to other pages for more detailed information. =Adaptations - here is where the other media is located. =Merchandise =Translations - Obviously where the advocacy and the text translations comes in. =External Links I hope this will merit everyone's approval.
  5. I just took a peek of our Guyver Page after reading Mirabilis' suggestion. I have to say, the page seems to need a little re-orientation. Would anybody mind if I revamp the page a little? Nothing major, just relocating some stuff so it won't look disorganized. Also, perhaps we can also apply the end page navigational template here. You know, like the one I made for the KR pages that have links to every titles that are related. Perhaps we can include in the navigation template links to the manga, TV, OVA, movies, Advocacy and etc. Here's my proposal at the moment: Main Page: Guyver Guyver Side: Sho Fukamachi, Tetsuro Segawa, etc etc Chronos Side: Alchanfel, Balcus, etc etc Zeus Thunderbolt Side: Agito Makishima, Griselda, etc etc Others: Apollyon, Valcuria, etc etc Terms: Zoanoid, Hyper Zoanoid, Lost Number, Zoalord, etc etc Location: Relics Point, Mount Minakami, Arizona HQ, Silha, etc etc Media: Manga, OVA, TV series, Novel, Movies, etc etc Advocacy: VDF, Volume 9, Volume 10, etc etc. These are just at the top of my head. Perhaps you guys can come up with something better.
  6. Lo and Hello. It's me again reviving yet another old topic. I'm currently reading The Great Train Robbery by Michael Crichton. It was a really cheap book (like 0.20 cents, because it was a clearance sale from a book distibutor), so I picked it up. So far, I find the concept interesting. Just recently started so I haven't really gotten into the gist of the story.
  7. After watching Binbo Danshi, I really liked this song. Monochrome by Bennie K http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHzcpzq2A6U
  8. Oh yes, I've seen Rocky, but was still very young to remember the exact details of the movie so I wasn't able to catch Rocky actually screaming Adrian. The ping pong practice was really funny though. The scene where line up to form the word Adrian!!!! Then after a few days, it turned into Ari, and then Ah! It was really a LOL moment for me.
  9. Unfortunately, I have never seen the OVA. But I too liked the songs in the second series. With the way the manga is currently going, I'm inclined to think that Arakawa is planning to finish the manga. The story is already in its climax. All the key people have begun to gather and something big seems to be set in motion.
  10. Anybody following this anime? I've got to say, everything is in accordance to the manga. At the rate that they are going, they'll catch up to the manga soon enough. Anybody have information as to how many episodes there will be yet?
  11. I have heard of the Gospel of Judas before, but only search for information about it when I read this just now. Apparently, it seems to suggest that Judas was commanded by Jesus to betray him. I find this interesting indeed. It's like a conspiracy theory that is hidden in ancient times and was only revealed after thousands of years. If you look at it, it is plausible. I mean, the crucifiction is one of the most prominent scene in Christian History. And without the aid of a "betrayer", that would not have happened. Although I'm still skeptical as to the true intention and feeling of Judas at that time, since we are unsure if his betrayal was an act of love or an act of trecheary. Early Christian does have the account to act violently on information which they deem to be heretic in nature. It would not surprise me if this is also linked to other documents which were destroyed by early christians.
  12. Well, I really didn't pay any particular attention to it. All that I've heard is Suten-chan. I though Omuomu was using the first and last syllable of small mountain. Checked the Japanese wiki just to make sure. And it was indeed Suruten. As for the names, Koyama Kazumi is Suruten Hikita Shuzo is Megane (the cop) Nakawara Mimi is Nancy (the OK loan lady). Also, I don't get why Kazumi keeps screaming "Adriaaaaaaan~!!!!" everytime he accomplished things.
  13. It was Shoten. Short for "Small Mountain". Although I was a bit disappointed at the ending. I was expecting
  14. Just finished Binbo Danshi or Bomb Bee Men. I must admit, I did enjoy it quite a bit. I find Kazumi kinda strange, but his ideas are pure genius. Also, loved the main theme, "Monochrome" by Bennie K, as well as the Insert song "Sukiyaki". I'm glad that this is only a short series, as long series tend to turn me away. I guess I would recommend this as long as the viewer can stomach the irritating friends at the first episode.
  15. Okay, I'm currently at episode 3 of Binbo Danshi. I guess its kinda interesting. Although the subs are really horrible, way below HK sub, so I really had to rely on listening. I'm watching this streaming at mysoju by the way. About Tokyo Dogs, what is it about?
  16. Yeah, I think this is possible. I'm always constantly thinking of the concept of hangliders.
  17. Ah I see. Were you using the default map or did you download a map via nokia maps updater and then download the map to your phone? I'm sure I've read reviews from someone in the UK that the details are amazing. I mean, why would the UK map have around 150mb of data if it lacks details? Also something that you might not like. You can only use the navigation for a limited time. After the free trial ends, you'd have to pay for the navigation. But you can still use the map, it just won't tell you how to get from point A to point B.
  18. Well, the friends are actually getting on my nerves. Borrowing money and taking advantage of the poor guy. Okay, I'll give it a chance by watching the full episode.
  19. Well, compared to the OVI maps, Google maps is much more detailed, since the maps there are often updated. OVI maps is practically useless for my country since it lacks the complete details. But with an onboard AGPS, the google maps are practically useless on locations with no data connection. Another drawback for google maps is that it doesn't provide point to point navigation. I guess this solely depends on how you use the navigation system. What about OVI maps that you didn't like. Is it the system menu, the map details, or just orientation of the map? Since my OVI map lacks details and google maps require data connection, I really can't compare with both in terms of usage.
  20. Tried watching Binbo Danshi. Just halfway the first episode, I stopped. Didn't like how the main protagonist was portrayed. I guess the show just isn't for my taste.
  21. I fail to see how people would be able to do that seeing that you have provided little to no information about yourself. I don't think people would persevere looking at thousands of picture with your discription. Heck, there's probably a hundred more people with the same picture. Sorry, I just find this post too funny, and I just can't resist.
  22. Oh, I must have missed that. hehe. Anyway, like I previously said, I didn't bother creating a facebook account of my own since I'm not really into the social networking kind of stuff. Besides, I don't want to add 200+ friends again. Because even if I make it discreet, its bound to be found out by the others, and I don't want to hear their incessant request to add them.
  23. Nice page. Although might be a bit awkward to post since I don't have a facebook account. I find it strange (or expected) that Ryuki and Deka are not friends in facebook.
  24. So, is the Japan Legend group facebook available? Also, will it be open for everyone to view or just those who have been confirmed as friends?
  25. That is exactly what playing the piano is about. Passion. The more passionate the pianist, the more moving the piece would be. To really feel the music can give out the best of the performance. Simply playing the notes based on the score is not enough. This is what great conductors want from their orchestra, musicians playing by their hearts, not by the notes. This is also the reason why there is a conductor. If the orchestra simply plays by note, what need would there be for a conductor?
