Ressurect the American Dream... this time as a 100 foot-tall atomic monster.

SR is School Rumble, the single funniest Japanese animated romantic comedy EVAR. The short story is that Tsukamoto Tenma, a 16 year old girl, is head over heels in love with Karasuma Oji, one of her classmates, but cannot confess her love. At the same time, semi-reformed delinquent, Harima Kenji, loves Tenma but also cannot quite express his feelings to her. This simple love triangle definition only applies about until episode 4 or so of the first series... from there it just gets more and more complicated as it turns out that nearly every character in the show is romanticly linked to at least two other characters... and it is reavealed that not a single goddamn member of Class 2-c could possibly pass for sane. Tea-club conspiracies, empty-pool hockey matches, curry vs nikujaga, and more onigiri than you can shake a stick at.

One of the best things about this series is that by the end of the first season almost every member of class 2-C (the class most of our protagonists come from) are actually fleshed out enough that even if you forget their name, you remember who they are, what they're into, and who they're interested in. Where most shows really only tell you about two or three characters, this show really makes you feel for the entire cast. So deep is this development that there are roughly 35 factions on the major SR forums, each supporting a different relationship put forth in the series.

Since Wannabe seems to be getting hit with another round of DOS attacks, here's Wikipedia's word on things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_rumble

And my reference to committing suicide was a joke meant to express how sad the ending to episode 9 of the second series of School Rumble... which it really was, with someone realizing that their affection would never be returned because the target was after one of their friends and letting go of it was the best option... then the really bittersweet song began playing as the ending began.

In the online game Ragnarok Online, I ran a priest named Brother Owain who was built using an different set of stats and skills than most priests. When built right this made a priest who didn't really use his magic to heal and enhance the party or blow up undead with holy attacks. This priest had just enough spell points to cast a small handfull of enhancement spells on himself, heal himself sparingly, and just beat the crap out of undead and demons (as well as everything else, but especially the forces of darkness) with weapons. This type of priest is very rare, very difficult to play right, and very dangerous when equipped with the right set of middling to upper level gear.

Lolis are the short name of a type of evil monster called Evil Loli, a little demon girl sitting on a floating crescent moon that can really do a job on many upper-level characters... I would go after multiple lolis without a weapon equipped just for fun, enchanting myself and tearing in with my bare hands while yelling things about "FISTICUFFS!!!!" and "YOUR KUNG-FU IS NO GOOD!"

Owain was one seriously ******** up character... especially once it was settled upon that he wasn't a good priest fighting against evil due to his purity, but an extremely evil priest beating the s**t outta the forces of evil out of disdain for their incompetence and cuteness.

Bad call... one or the other.

While you can mix asprin and alcohol in limited amounts, you should stay away from ibuprofen and alcohol.

I had a question for basically anyone in here who has played RO. Uh, any suggestions for where I should level my thief? Base Level: 43. Job Level: 33. Any help would very appreciated.
