new here... not a n00b

Postby Takuya » Mon Oct 17, 2005 7:15 pm

Konnichiwa... Name's Matrix... AKA, Aaron (Real name), Matt (The alias I like to be called by... Short for Matrix...), Koji (My dark side... Only call me that if I get upset and need to chillax), Kouichi (uhm... yet another of my Japanese aliases...), Guardian Dragoon (Uhm... I might make a topic on this stuff one day...in the mean time, I tend to try to stop fights... so...), Commander Metal Frame (I'ma civilian), Jerren Arq (Metal Frame)...

I speak some Japanese (Not just greetings and lunch...) but am not Japanese... In fact I am American... But I plan to become a Japanese speciallist one day...

In case you're wondering why... I love alot of anime and like very few cartoons... Code Lyoko, G.I. Joe Sigma 6, and a few CGCs are about it... But that's not it... I used to really be into Samurai and Bushido... Though alot of stuff about it I dissagree with... I kinda mellowed out tho... And I HAD a Japanese girlfriend named Miyuki not to long ago (Born in the states with fully Japanese brother and parents... well... As far as I could tell they were...)... So I decided to learn HER language since I already sang it (Oh yea... I know some songs in Japanese... So honestly, I'm not sure WHAT made me want to learn Japanese).... But... I eventually found out she was bisexual... blegh... I think it made me literally sick to my stomach... But the desire to learn Japanese still stood... It seems kinda wierd...

I'm actually coming up with two CGAnime and two games... The Titan Frame franchise... Metal Frame (Game 1), Titan Frame Pilot (Game 2), Elite Warrior [name pending] (Movie), Cyber Elite (Series)...

As you may have noticed, some of my aliases came from Metal Frame... Most came from Elite Warrior and Cyber Elite...

Wow... didn't know there was so much to say about me...

Greetings and salutations, Matrix. You'll have a great time here. Interesting comment about anime - I have the same opinion: love it, but don't like many. Why do you feel that way? Mostly, I really hate wooden animation, so I'm pretty picky.

Uhm... I don't not like alot of anime... though I've found that most anime (Like Naruto which ironically found its way here) is for adults. Cartoons and anime are two different things. That list is of cartoons I like, not anime... BTW, I don't like it when ppl call anime 'cartoons' when I've told them the difference...

And in answer to that non n00b question: Mountains. I don't like the beach that much because of what COULD be under there dead *PUKE* and I always get sand in my shorts. Not to mention that I've never been in the mountains. I'd like to climb some of Mt. Fuji.

In general, the unexpected is unexpected.

Ah, this ever-popular question. The screenname is meant to be ironic: it is an uncreative pseudonym.

To Silvanis:

You can add me.

And, BTW, I can help you out with the sport. Just be sure to ask specific questions.

To UC Pseudonym:

I meant that... I can't explain it...

Also, I have absolutely NO idea WHAT a pseudonym is...

---

To Teen4Truth:

Yes, we kinda know eachother... sorta... He made a good story, I loved and reviewed it, I complained about an incident.

Cool, I keep meeting more Beyblade lovers... SWEET.

That explains a great deal. If the word is unfamiliar to you, it doesn't really make any sense. Here is an official definition, though by now the irony is very dead:

Hmm, I guess I don't understand the distinction you're making. Would you explain? Mostly I read manga and I don't watch much anime unless it comes from Studio Ghibli or has otherwise caught my attention (like Ghost in the Shell). Just a disclaimer - I'm not trolling - I know some folk consider Ghost in the Shell controversial because of the nudity at the beginning.

I would imagine he is making the distinction between American-produced and Japanese-produced animated series. Given the titles he mentioned, there are some thematic and general style differences, though less so when both forms are considered as a whole.

Regardless of if Ghost in the Shell is controversial, it is hardly a forbidden topic on these forums.

dude's got a point...

Wow... I guess you and I got something in common... we don't open our traps unless we know what we're talking about... Then again... I tend to shoot my mouth off in person... and speak before I think... I just don't like typing much, so I think first to avoid having to re-type. lol

Thanks for the explanation. Also, thanks for letting me know that Ghost in The Shell isn't off limits -- I think it is a very powerful, intense anime, but I didn't want to offend anyone who thinks otherwise.
