If you want the fire to stop, all you have to do is axe.

Excellent use of foreshortening.

Good eye. I wasn’t sure if anyone would catch on once I removed the perspective lines.
It’d look something like this without foreshortening:

Not only was there a poll like that, that was the exact poll. But your comment raises an interesting point. At some point I could make up a fake poll just to screw with everyone…

Wow, i thought you were back already from eyestrain… but these pesky fillers always fool us… Time to get back to watch bleach and naruto, i heard they were over with their “filler” seasons. or weren’t they?

From what I’ve heard, Bleach is back, but judging by the pace of the manga, it’ll be going back to filler in no time. I have no clue what Naruto’s up to these days. I’m guessing it’s basically the manga fillerized with flashbacks.

In your post about trying to describe New Challenger without using the word ‘perfect’, one of the things you used as an analogy was ShizNat. However, would ShizNat not have only reached true perfection by your standards if the girls had been above the age of 18? You have failed.

Wrong. ShizNat isn’t about the porn. I actually prefer it when they keep their clothes on. ShizNat is about two awesome characters and their awesome dynamic. It’s unbeatable.

I usually tend to ignore posts with strictly Japanese titles…

…and that’s the beauty of it. If everyone reads the post as soon as it comes out, everyone’s going to bitch when I don’t update for a month. However, if I give it a post title that people will only read when they’re bored, it’ll make the gap between updates feel a lot shorter.

I was going to dismiss this as a filler post, but then Baka-Raptor art totally makes up for it.

Of course. Even my filler posts are better than 90% of the crap out there.

To be honest, my main reason for checking out this post is for the hope that it will explain what the title means. But I’m so not complaining on the cute fanart xD Haha. Why no colors? =(… xD

I’m leaving the coloring to the readers. It’ll give you something fun to do while I’m not updating.
The title means “deep inside the forest.” You may have heard it in the Fate/Stay Night ending:
You may also recognize the “fukai mori” (deep forest) part from the second Inu Yasha ending.

Now that I know what a cumsprite is, I have to agree. They’re like the flan from the Final Fantasy series. They have the same basic appearance, but one’s fire elemental and one’s cum elemental.

I hope you got yourself to a proper physican/veterinarian/paleozoologist.
*reads comments of the last entry*
So did all the optimistic doctors say it would get better on its own or what?
Can’t believe that even one of them lets an opportunity to sell you prescriptions etc pass by.
Have a good rest, maybe you will rediscover some of your imagination along the way. You can even experiment with Ganzfeld-stuff:
Turn your radio to static noise, tape pingpong-ball-halves over your eyes and lie down to enjoy some epic journey back to mesozoic times.
Never tried it myself though, because I lack the pingpong balls to begin with.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
I’ve tried two prescriptions so far. They’ve been useless. Looks like I’ll have to get better on my own whether I like it or not.

Didn’t you write that you had a bad imagination in the comment section of one of the last posts?
With imagination being the ability to see and hear pictures and sounds while reading text or just thinking about them?
Like imagining the anime characters’ designs and voices (okay, hard if you read a translation) while reading the light novels it was based on?
At the danger of sounding campy, but we probably are all a bit lacking in that department compared to our ancestors, due to our upbringing with modern media.

We miss having you around regularly =(
By the way, I did notice that subtle change in the header image. Nice.
As for watching sports, you could listen to them on the radio instead. I think this works best for baseball, though, honestly – it kind of sucks for hockey.
Moe moe forest fire.

I’m a Yankees fan. I don’t care about baseball until the playoffs.
I was going to pounce on the moe/moeru double meaning as soon as someone mentioned it but lost my will after Kabitzin’s terrible pun in the first comment.
