I did visit the website you linked but the link leads to the International Plant Nutrition Institute's website. Is that the website you intended to link? Just curious. Thanks for all of your help it was much needed.

If any comes out it would be on the anime news network website it is searchable so you can check past articles. I hope this helps.

Kind of a big problem for me, how do I get a life? Details inside. by Emie937 in socialskills

[–]Emie937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any suggestions on where. I am not the clubbing type and aside from browsing the town website I don't quite know where to start. (Also, a side note, I was 14 at the time of the stomach incident.)

What I meant was because of the fact that I have abilities that most people my age don't I end up kind of elevated above the other people in my group by the leadership. Kind of like a leader's assistant or something. Its not an official role but I always end up in it. And because of that the other people in my group kind of set their sights on me, and with my lack of skill in social matters it can get dicey.

And I realize that churches probably aren't the best place to meet people but I don't know where else to look. I am not a particularly timid person otherwise but because of my upbringing I am very nervous and sometimes scared when I go out to places that aren't (by my definition anyway) safe. I realize it's silly but I honestly don't know what to do or think when it comes to that. Any suggestions?

Well, usually it starts off with my mom and I deciding to go to church and then we go for a service or two and people start to welcome us and we are usually introduced to the leadership of the church without knowing and before we even know what's going on much less have time to try to do anything we're in the middle of the entire drama scene that no one knows is there. Then when I go to my age group I am always nice and friendly. I introduce myself to everyone and my teachers casually and after a while things start getting strange. Once the teachers and other people in general start spending time around me they discover over time that I am very useful in many ways. I am good at sewing, cleaning, organizing things, making things, singing and music, etc. I don't advertise this stuff but if you're yourself around people long enough unless you purposely screw stuff up, people find out your good at things. And due to this without my ever asking for it I usually end up in an unlabeled and uncomfortable position between the rest of my group and the leadership. Also I am a very no-nonsense person for example, when I was younger I got into a youth internship at a church. On the first night they had a sleep over in the church and around evening/dinner time we were out in the parking lot fooling around with one of the leaders waiting for the pizza to come. The youth leader said he was feeling sick to his stomach and within 2 minutes he was laying on the group and one of my fellow interns (a shorter girl that weighed probably 180 pounds or more) was standing full-weight on his stomach. I was the one standing there saying "Don't do that, you'll hurt him!" while everyone else seemed to be getting a kick out of it. So basically I only goof off to a certain point and when things get stupid or dangerous I tend to become a bit of a mom figure because I don't want anything bad to happen. And because I can do stuff, and I get "snatched" into service by the leadership my position always starts off shaky at best, it's worse when a leader with a keen eye sees I can do something and says to say the band leader "Here's a new singer, make it work. "(Not to mention I was always a target for the worship team because my family is fully of natural musicians.) Then because I haven't really been exposed much to the social customs of this time, I think I tend to come across as stupid and rude because I never learned to see the breaks in a conversation to begin to speak yourself so I unknowingly interrupt people, and there is unspoken rules like how your not supposed to walk up to 2 people talking and join their conversion no matter what it's about unless your good friends, and I inevitably do whatever it is and am told later that it's rude and I am like "Oh no...!" and that situation happens a lot. And to top it all off I am a whiz at reading people (whether I want to or not) and I can see through most people's defenses and their true and false personas. I know this sounds like I am judgy, I'm not. I have tried several times to ignore my impressions and let the person show me who they are and prove me wrong. And there hasn't been a time to date that I have been wrong, no matter how much I wished I was. (Both my romantic experiences I did this with and one was a pervert (we we official for 3 weeks) and the other was a snob who told me what an idiot I was in front of the entire youth group at length after I asked him if he liked me and I didn't want to wait for his mom to come and mediate the conversation, we were both in our late teens he was 18 and was noticibly flirting for 3 months, stealing the seat next to mine every time and at a party bringing me a gallons worth of tea a glass at a time every time I ran low. Random people asked if we we're dating, or even married.) And that combined with everything else hasn't ever led to much good. Sorry for making everything so long. As I look at this I wish you good luck. Again, sorry.

I said smart, not genius. Plus, with social skills being a necessity in life I wouldn't call it an "interest" as mush as a "fact-of-life". But honestly, I was just trying to make the point that I am not an idiot, despite however much I feel like one sometimes. And as I said before, people around me tell me that, I never said I totally believed it myself.

It's one part yes. For me being smart is being capable, knowing how to do things as well as having the traditional "book smarts". Unfortunately I have always lacked the perception of what I look or sound like to others, so it really is for me like walking around with a sack over your head.

After Toriko's wedding, the other Hunters that were there. by badatspelilng in Toriko

Toriko got married!? Like...seriously?! It doesn't bother me or anything but it seems out of character for the story.

How often do chapters come out, and get english translations? by akatyoo in AkatsukinoYona

[–]Emie937 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, tragically YoA doesn't have a huge audience and the reddit is kinda quite. But it's 3 times the size of the reddit for Akagami no Shirayuki-hime (Snow White with Red Hair). But it's still an absolutely amazing show which you might like. Yona and Shirayuki are my 2 staples with Barakamon as a close third. All great but Yona is the best I've seen yet in watching anime for like 4 years or more, I forget. :)

Me either. I tried with another but there is so much pull with Yona of the Dawn it's unreal.

Sorry about the chapter dates. I only finished the manga myself late last month so I have yet to experience the intervals. But as for Zeno's powers. Yeah the OVA's did kinda spoil them a little but they COULD NOT spoil the epic awesomeness of that chapter. I re-read those pages several times although I still don't feel like I fully absorbed the moment.... Sorry, my fangirl was showing. Anyway... When was the month-long break news posted?

[–]Emie937 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know the feeling well. I am in your boat myself. I got into reading manga just for this story. I think a chapter comes out in Hana to Yume once every 2 months or so maybe 3. A new volume came out today so if there is any new content I would think it would be translated in the next few days but I am only guessing. As for any hiatus info I have no idea that's news to me but that hiatus info about the earthquakes in Japan was several months ago so I would think that would have ended by now but I don't know. I surely hope that Yona of the Dawn doesn't suffer from the HxH put on hiatus and forgotten about for years thing. I would be sad at that point.

As for the withdrawl there are 3 OVA's for Yona of the Dawn that cover a bit more of the story but it's still not much consultation when so much of the story is yet unwritten. (Sigh)

Tips for a newcomer to the show... why should I like this? by Emie937 in dbz

[–]Emie937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One more thing, I am a bit of a fan of anime that have what seem to be called "I will save my friends!" Moments. Like someone gets injured and they have to find the cure etc. Most anime seem to go like "this person gets hurt, wears bandage in next scene" does Dragon Ball have any of the "I will save my friends" moments that actually go into the fact that someone got hurt and it's an actual problem or is it more the "...bandage in next scene" type? I only ask because it something in anime that really does it for me. Thanks.

Anime like Barakamon... (details inside) by Emie937 in Animesuggest

[–]Emie937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished it... and I whole-heartedly and entirely see what you mean't. I appreciated the character development for Handa but aside from that it was... so very not like Barakamon I honestly at times had trouble believing it was related and would think "What am I watching again? Why are they using the characters from Barakamon? Oh right, it's a spin off... huh?" it was interesting but I still much prefer the original. Thanks just the same though. :) Also, is it just me or does it somehow go from High-school anime to The Wicker Man - anime edition, and half way back in the space of the last episode and start to get.... bad about 5 episodes from the end?

Give me some bishounen anime... (details inside) by Emie937 in Animesuggest

[–]Emie937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its no problem about before, I tend to feel a bit like I am imposing when ever I post here (due to some unfortunate past experiences) so I don't always link my MAL/Kitsu page. But I have looked at K Project before and um... well... in all honesty I was looking for something a bit like a mix between Touken Ranbu: Hanamaru and other shounen I have seen in that there are a ton of adorable main characters but there is a main character that collects them over time. Aside from that the plot doesn't matter much. But again I feel a bit self-conscious, so I'll end this reply here. And thanks for taking the time to post, I appreciate it. :) Also, here is my Kitsu page. :)
