It'd be cheaper if they released anime in Japanese with English subtitles
instead of dubbing a series and losing money. Since anime is supposed to be
foreign it should be kept to originality, like how manga is more affordable and
is kept in the right-to-left format.
When you translate things from Japanese into English, subtle translations are
lost, honorifics are mostly absent and Japanese events or terms are not
explained. This is where fansubs come in handy because some distributors explain
what the honorifics mean and (sometimes) keep them.
Additionally, imported items like anime is supposed to be up the rocket in
pricing. But indeed, you have to be a millionaire to buy anime, and to find out
that you have to buy five more DVDs to complete the series? And what gets me is
that they release a box set months later, whereas TV shows like Heroes and
Grey's Anatomy's box sets are affordable and with a lot more episodes included.
It is part of the marketing scheme and we're being taking advantage of.
This doesn't say I don't pay for my anime online, though. For 60 dollars a year
I have access to nearly every anime series released by fansubbers and English
dubbed distributors. I'm just a computer person and prefer to start a collection
since it doesn't take up space unlike DVD boxes.
And finally, the loss of NewType is to be expected somewhat. I stopped buying it
twice because I couldn't afford it. I really thought it was gonna flourish but
after 5 years, things are likely to fall...
Well, since the hacker incident, I realize that several things I noticed about
MT's layout. I'd like to get it back to the way it was before I go insane.
><
Firstly, copyright under a wall submission has the anime company's name and the
user that created it; the anime company (for example CLAMP) name is repeated
twice. It looks weird to have SunriseSunrise as a company name don't you think?
The other thing that was before, in the Other Submissions column, I noticed that
the items in that column are of the first three submissions I submitted at MT,
not the ones of the last three I submitted which it was originally.
Here's a screenshot to better understand the bug:
Not to seem coy, but another thing: My last artwork before my latest wall (This is my Perspective)
somehow isn't in the Elite Gallery when it was before. But when I categorize my
gallery under "Elite Gallery Only", it's featured there.
I know these don't matter much to the forum but I'd like to get it back to
before the hacker ambushed us. Just trying to increase the function of MT again.
^^
I had to alter my CSS a little bit on my userpage, but I came to realize that my
guestbook isn't centered anymore! I don't know what I removed, but I somehow
removed the code that centered it (so embarrassed ) Could someone help me please?
I believe pride is another way of protecting one's self from the world.
"Oh, I'm a man so I should this" or "I'm a woman and I need to do
this".
Men are afraid of being wimps in front of their peers (male pride) is just one
example. My boyfriend says he has pride because he doesn't want to be considered
feeble in front of his peers. I don't have any pride, if I want to let myself
out at one given point, so I shall. Just let yourself out, don't worry about
making mistakes. If someone doesn't like what I do, I just ignore them and
continue on. It's all about growing up and learning more about your maturity and
life.
Suicide is not the best way to go. I'm a hypocrite for saying this because I
have planned suicide so many times but never attempted. That means I still want
to live somewhere in my mind. I thought my boyfriend didn't love me anymore so I
thought without him I would have no life. Well, I got a disorder so some of my
grief is excusable but still, it's not worth committing suicide for just one
girl who doesn't give too flying figs about you. Of course, she's stupid for not
noticing your pain and she could still be your friend.
Suicide is not worth it. Love is hard under 18. Wait until you become a little
older. The pain will diminish at some point in time.
On the left side there should be three options 'Edit' 'Update' and 'Delete'.
Since you want to replace a scan with another one, just use the 'Update' option.
Some bugs I found...
LOL
I submitted my same curiosities in my above thread.
I wasn't expecting it fixed right away, just want to make you guys aware of it. ^^

Please Kit-chan, return our rightful admins back to their positions!
This is horrible, some of my friends are admins now...
It didn't seem to work...I have no idea why..><
EDIT: Never mind, I added the <STYLE> tag. Thank you, Maple-chan for your codes!

You have to keep the vector section! All I do is make vectors and I'd like to see other vector members be noted of their brilliance. =3
My hands twitch a bit, and even my arms some times. I know I take medication every day but this is ridiculous. xD
Come on, skinny girls are sexier! It's just the general public thinks this when a handful of others does not. Society blows. >>
