That makes a lot of sense, I didn't consider it from the mangaka's (manga
author) point of view, I have heard of it before. I read that the mangaka of
Naruto chose to replace the goggles the main character Naruto usually wears on
his forehead with the famous forehead protecting bearing the village symbol
simply because; he couldn't be bothered always drawing the reflection on the
goggle lens.
the ending was very sad, i lost a lot of sleep over it as well the
only closure i got was that the series stressed the possibility of
'reincarnation', where 'mary magdalene' (chrno's first love) died only to be
reincarnated later as 'rosette christpher'. so i will mysef to believe that
'chrno and rosette may have died, but they were reborn and live together
happily!'
I'm not sure when other places in the world has theirs, but in Australia, we had
daylight savings lst Sunday. My whole family were unaware of it, so my little
brother was late for tutor, I was late for tennis practice and my mum was left
wondering what had happened to her favourite morning radio program. I went into
work later and my boss was stunned, she thought I'd rocked up 1hr early,
apparently she didn't know about it either and opened up her shop 1hr late as
well.
Quote by RainofDarknessCan't wait!
D.Gray-man is awesome and hopefully the anime isnt too badly twisted. Some anime
productions have been really bad counterpart compared to the actual
manga.
let's pray that doesn't happen, that the transition for D.Gray from manga to
anime is a smooth one.
Anyone as psyched as I am!? Chapter 80, which was released just recently has
announced that there will be an animated series coming soon! *joy* *tears*
For anyone unenlightened, and can't bother to read the synopsis on MT >.>
D.Gray-man is a goth-style manga about a 15yr old named Allen Walker. His left
eye cursed by his adoptive father Mana Walker when he inadvertantly turned into
an "akuma" or "demon," allowing him to see an their souls.
His left arm posessing an "innocence" allowing him to exterminate
them. Allen becomes one of God's "black priests," an exorcist, to
destory the akuma and their maker, the "Millennium Earl."
Heh, I think I might write a review =D that aside. Does anyone have any info on
the upcoming anime? I wonder what production company has taken D.Gray-man under
it's wing and how much of the manga they'll retain. Soundtrack! I wonder who
will sing the openings and endings, if there are any, so many questions!
im not sure what "stroke path with brush is" and i couldnt find a
tutorial with the link provided, but i understand the method with the pen tool,
i was wondering how i was going to get lines actual after using the pen tool,
fill path works.
it seems it all comes down to playing with the pen tool and getting used to it,
cheers for all the tips! =D
I have Adobe Photoshop CS, and I'm trying to vector an image I came across in a
manga, I'm new to this... very very new.
I figured the easiest way to go about it was to increase the size (the picture
was pretty small) even though it made it a lot less sharp, then make another
layer and kind of trace it. To reproduce smooth curves I read through the
Tutorial option under Help and figured the Pen option might be the most
effective way to do it. I've been fiddling with the option and only getting more
frustrated, I can't figure out how the tool works, it might be because it's 4 in
the morning but who sweats the details To the
beef of this post, I was wondering if anyone had any tips on using the tool,
what works for them etc.
Just to make things interesting, also, it might be easier for me and anyone who
tries to help me, to put up an example. This is a picture I threw together in
paint, could anyone help explain to me how they would approach trying to
reproduce the line smoothly in Photoshop? Just pointers even, refer to the line
you're talking about by number please =3
Quote by Croixi use both tablet and mouse
at sametime. since im left handed, i can draw with left hand (tablet) and my
right hand will be on the mouse, so when i need to change tool, i move the arrow
with the mouse, then go back to tablet once i have the tool
selected.
man i'd give my left arm to be ambidextrous =3 (be able to use both hands
equally proficiently).
It's not just me! Every male protaginist is just like Shinji! Emotionally
retarded and downright f*ed in the head. For those of you wondering who this
crazy mufu is talking about, I'm talking about Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis
Evangelion, the little boy behind the big mecha so to speak.
Shinji is a pubescent, sexually frustrated, sad lonely little boy who just
doesn't like his pile in life. He tries his best to save the world while dealing
with his girl problems. And for the most part of the series, mopes around being
depressed, angry or all of the above.
Eg. Naota from FLCL.
Quote by Loneprincessi think ah i
4gotten their names in ccs sakuras brother n moon's otherself or thats wat hes
called i think
sakura's brother's name was tori, and yui's (sakura's moon guardian) human
form's name was julian, (these are the english, cant remember the japanese ).
motoko is gay or bi? O.O i watched the ghost in the shell movies, where nothing
about her sexual orientation was mentioned...
aww i just ruined that part of the series for myself! i was going to watch it
after i finished ichigo mashimaro & kino's travel's.
In Australia, the only places you can buy Pocky are specialised Japanese
supermarkets (which there aren't many of!) or asian grocers, where there is
usually only plain chocolate, strawberry & nut!
No Pocky-like brands like Pepero & Pretz that I've seen, but I've heard
they've been spotted on the rare ocassion
Boxes of either chocolate or strawberry cost about $1 AUS and $1.30 for nut. I
wonder how many different types there are, I've heard rumours of a "giant
Pocky" and also a large range of flavours, that can be likened to that of
chips

Like the name-sake, who's Bankai's are you looking forward to the most? I've
only seen to about 70 in the anime, so some of these may have already been
revealed in the manga. Mine are:
1) Rukia's
2) Yachiru's
3) Ukitake's
4) Hinamori's
5) Kenpachi's (if he EVER gets one)
another collection of spoofs, there are some anime ones, some game ones (FFVII
advent & metal gear solid) as well as some random ones, all funny, i hope
you enjoy, i didnt make any of these, and here's the link for where i found
them. http://www.vgcats.com/archive/
sorry if there are too many or they're too large (i did size them down a
little), i guess im just an evil evil net-junkie with high-speed cable internet
this is simply hilarious! to be able to link all those scenes together and come
up with sth that makes sense, now, THAT'S talent! would be even funnier if
someone were to sub the entire season like that instead of the actual lines
^^
again, i DID NOT make these, please thank the talent of those who did make them.
and some subbers do make spoof subs, the best current example has to be the one
someone made for FFVII advent children, they made an alternative set of subs,
they're freakin hilarious!
i think that even IF akito went psycho on her, she'd be able to hack it, mayu is
emotional, yet cool & controlled. but most importantly, she seems to be a
very strong woman. hey if she can stand going out with shigure for a month
(think his poor editor) and also be albe to stand him for all the years after as
a friend (think hatori) she can stand anything.
My favourite weapon from an anime is Ed from Full Metal Alchemist's arm, mostly
because he can transmute it into a knife and whatever else he wants... so long
as he has the materials. Some of you may not count it, but i think it is one,
because he had it added later, and it needs maintenence, oiling & everything
,
that's just my opinion.
There;s a lot of them spread out over the various animes & mangas Usually
they're pretty sassy and cool, but some are just annoying. My favourites is
Umeda from Hana-Kimi. I can't think of any annoying ones i don't
watch/read much yaoi, which i assume means gay anime/manga.
these are for "older" audiences! so no kiddies wondering into here! if
you like things that poke fun at GSD, you'll find these just as hilarious as i
did! and i DID NOT make these, i accumulted these from visiting forums, most of
which are closed/resetted now. feel free to add more and i apologise to those
with slower internet! i know there are A LOT of pictures here even
though GSD has finished, at least on the internet, i still love it to
bits!
Quote by Shuichi-ShindouVery nice
pictures. Chibi Naruto is so cute ^^
Although anime characters are a little inspired by Western looks, I'm often
disappointed by Westerners doing cosplays... it just don't suit us.
Asian people rock at this. THey look good with these costumes, where other
people look strange or even stupid (no offence).
I never like carnivals, so I'm not the type of person going to a cosplay
convention. However, should I once go, I'd dress like Itachi Uchiha, with the
black Akatsuki coat and straw hat so no one knows who's under the costume
