Hello and welcome to Keba's Anime and Manga Place (KAAMP for short)! Here at KAAMP, I write about anime and manga that I have seen/read as well as my views on them. I'll also post about my original stories from time to time.

Just beware that some of my posts contain spoilers. I'll put them in spoiler tags just in case.

KAAMP's history: KAAMP was created in July 2002 by yours truly. It was a sloppy-looking website on Yahoo's now defunct Geocities. I posted my anime fan art on that site. Also, for a time, I posted my thoughts on the few anime series that I had seen. Now that I look back on it, my thoughts were rather ill-informed (is that even a word?) because I had only seen bits and pieces of anime dubs. Now that I've seen more series, I think that my commentary on various anime will be a little better than before.

So, come on in and stay awhile! KAAMP is now in session.

Websites, Websites, Websites

Let's talk Tumblr for a bit. My main blog is a little dead. I post stuff now and again, but all of it is original content. I want it to be semi-professional, but I hear that nothing stays professional on Tumblr. Should I alter my main blog to make it all crazy and fangirly? Should I make a side blog for my "professional" stuff? Or should I keep my blog as it is and make the side blog all crazy and fangirly?

I was going to say some other stuff about sites, but it's totally slipping my mind right now. This post may be amended, possibly under a different title.

Update/edit thing: I think I remembered what I wanted to say. It's about Hulu. Apparently you can have a free trial once a year. I just found that out today. Guess who's set for watching anime this month? *Gestures toward self.*

Loose Ends

I had originally intended to post the next chapters of Survival Instincts one by one, but I think I'll be posting four at once early next month. And by next month I mean the one that's coming up in a few hours. Heck, if you live across the pond, it's ALREADY next month.

I hope that in the near future I can get some drawings up too. I've started about 10, but haven't finished any of them. @_@

Also, I gotta get my rear in gear in regard to my CD Collection World. I haven't even listed my collection. Or do you guys even care?

My latest Challenge is ending. Unfortunately, there weren't many entries, so I'm just going to announce two winners.

I've been thinking about updating my K.A.A.M.P. World intro. I just don't know what to say (and how much). Thoughts?

Three Orders of Business

First order of business: I successfully activated the glitch in Pokemon Yellow (on my first try!) and caught Mew. I haven't actually used my new Mew in battle yet. But she is adorable. And I love her. I know Mew is a Pokemon of unknown gender, but MINE IS A GIRL.

Second order of business: I registered for ACen. Yay! I'll have to patch up my Fluffy Vest, and maybe invest in something to... um... flatten me. I really should have hit the gym more than I have in order to prepare for my cosplay. At least I'll be on a liquid diet after my surgery, so I'm sure to shed a few pounds.

Third order of business: I went down to the pre-op clinic last Monday to prepare for my upcoming surgery on April 8. But that's not the actual thing I want to talk about. This is about my drive there. Actually, my mom was driving and I was looking out the window. Then something caught my eye. It was a car covered in stickers of things like Hello Kitty, the Triforce, and Poke Balls. The license plate displayed the word "OTAKU". I thought that was the funniest thing in the world.

It's Tuesday... Did You Remember Your Livestream? [OFF]

If you're feeling fat 'n' sassy (or even if you're not), join me!

I was thinking about livestreaming tonight around 9 Central. Who wants in? If you do, would you rather I use JoinMe or Picarto? JoinMe is more user-friendly (on both ends), but Picarto allows sound. Voting starts... now.

Stuff I can do:
Work on the super-long overdue "Ask Us" pages
That Naruto comic that I've been kicking around forever
Inking/coloring Challenge prizes
Maybe something new

Yes, I totally just modified an old post.

Thank you TDE and Toya for stopping by!

Drawing Magical Girls

I have a bunch of old OCs that I feel like drawing, but I can't seem to find the right references to draw them. These OCs are a team of magical girls. The problem is that there are six of them. When I search for pictures, the most that I can come up with is five per picture.

Even if I draw them as regular (un-transformed) girls, I'm still struggling to come up with a picture of six that looks just right.

Am I looking in the wrong places for references (Google and Tumblr)?

If any of you people could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. They don't have to be full body shots either.

Thanks in advance.

Update: Thanks for all the responses, guys! I think I have some ideas.
