The "Kyoho Meibutsucho" also listed the nicknames, prices, history and length of the Meibutsu with swords by Yoshimitsu, Masamune, Yoshihiro, and Sadamune being very highly priced.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I like Miyazaki's work in general but if he turns out decent otherwise here on I might forgive some anime. Not a lot.

good news regarding miyazaki's opinion on the anime industry in japan

quote:

You see, whether you can draw like this or not, being able to think up this kind of design, it depends on whether or not you can say to yourself, ‘Oh, yeah, girls like this exist in real life. If you don’t spend time watching real people, you can’t do this, because you’ve never seen it. Some people spend their lives interested only in themselves. Almost all Japanese animation is produced with hardly any basis taken from observing real people, you know. It’s produced by humans who can’t stand looking at other humans. And that’s why the industry is full of otaku!.

also they and the national guard are literally the only branches of the armed forces that actually "protect are freedoms" instead of starting wars in countries on the other side of the world. the other forces mock them because they never get to shoot at anyone lol america is a fascist shithole

No poo poo. They're absolutely terrifying, and I don't know why anyone would want one as a pet. It's a 200lb animal with the intelligence of a 4 year old and the strength of 4 men. And when it gets pissed off, it rips off your face, hands and genitals, if it can get to them. That's definitely not something I want in my house.

I wish we took more after our bonobo cousins and just hosed the problems away. History would be much more fun if instead of war we just had massive orgies.

This is a "being a shooting victim doesn't make you an expert on gun control"-level argument. The gently caress do I know who? I thought the National Guard was strictly home front, sending them overseas makes about as much sense as sending elite USPS operators (not that I'd put that above you). You have five air forces, two armies, three navies and about a hundred intelligence agencies, forgive me for thinking you had enough manpower to defend your freedoms abroad without involving the reservists

I've found it helps if you mail a container rather than just using a paper envelope.
