wow... this is quite a welcome. Thank you, everyone.
BTW, Nangi, can you teach me japanese? I only know a few words, phrases, grammar rules, etc. My japanese knowledge is rather limited. lol What I know is mainly limited to expletives and curses (to release my frustrations in a way that nobody else but a few people I know understand. NTM, they're short and simple, and usually easy to discern from a subtitled anime).
anyway, I do intend to enjoy myself, and I'll try not to tick anyone off.
