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.

Sorry about the quietness of my Worlds. I just don't have much to say.
I started a new drawing for the MMO Challenge. It's the first time I actually drew something in, like, a month. There are four Challenges I want to enter right now, but I haven't started drawings for all of them.
There have been some memes floating around that I'd like to fill out. I just never think about doing them.
Speaking of things that are floating around, we've got another art thief. And this time, it has nothing to do with our usual suspect. I reported all of this person's stolen works. I just hope they'll be taken down in a timely manner. You know, before the thief gets a following.
I'm kind of having an artist/writer's block. I know I need to tune up that chapter of Survival Instincts, but I feel like I might be rusty. I guess that goes for all of my stories. Heck, it goes for DRAWING my OCs, too.
I want to do one of those character studies where you draw a character with different poses and expressions. It's kind of like those character model sheets that are revealed as teasers for anime premiers. I just don't know how to go about doing those. And yes, I'm probably making this more complicated than it has to be. Any thoughts/tips?
I'd also like some tips on getting back into writing my stories. It's been a looooooong time since I touched any of them. My fear is that I've lost the "feel" of each one. I know where The Rebels of Planet Aadau is going because I wrote out most of it roughly 15 years ago (I can't believe it's been that long! O_O). I also know exactly what to do with Destination, but it's getting very hard to capture the essence of it. Survival Instincts kind of turns into a mess around the 9th chapter and the 10th is kind of a cliffhanger. I have no idea what to do with it after that.
I created Fiction Feedback Central to generate excitement about my stories, and for others to do the same. I guess it hasn't been going as well as I had hoped.
So yeah. Lots of blocks.
And now for something slightly off the subject.
My CD Collection World is nearly at 300 views even though I have NO REVIEWS WHATSOEVER. I really have no idea which one to do first. I don't even feel like I have enough information to write a well-rounded review for most of my albums. Anyone know of any sites that give information on music? I'd do research on my own, but usually I find a lot of biased junk that makes my blood pressure skyrocket.
Again, review requests are open. Mostly because I'm so indecisive.
I have also added 22 more albums to my collection. I should go add them... sometime.
Speaking of stuff to add, I should totally rework my intro for this very World. Anyone want to read one of those "about me"/likes/dislikes things?
I thought I'd bring up a relevant topic while we're in the midst of the Olympics. Turns out that a gymnast representing Japan got inspiration from a manga about gymnastics. It also helped that his parents ran a gymnasium. Watch this video to learn more.
Hi everyone. In a few days, my online presence will vanish for approximately 48 hours. In short, I'm moving to a new apartment. I'll do my best to catch up with you guys when I'm all settled in.
Just so you know, I'd like to thank everyone for the comments/votes/favorites on the art that I posted. I finally got a #1 spot on the leaderboards, which is something I aspired to do since I first joined.. Thanks for all the support. I mean it.
Having said that, it may be some time before I post anything else. I have a few things in the works, but not much. Then again, I'm not sure what the future will hold, so I might churn out a bunch of drawings at once. Who knows?
Update: I'm in my new place now. I still have to unpack my art supplies. ^^;
I haven't had a lot to say anime-wise for quite a while, but I have to share this. I was listening to a radio station, when the DJ came on and announced that he found a Charmander on Pokemon GO in the lounge. Just think: 15 years ago the average person who listened to this station on a regular basis would have scoffed at the mention of Pokemon. Now, DJs are proudly declaring themselves as trainers on the air. Or maybe the station is going "soft". Either way that was a bright spot in an otherwise awful day.
