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.

This is gonna be a tiny post.
- I'll be taking participants for my yearlong event at the beginning of December.
- I hope to post my SS wishlist within the next couple days.
- I'm still working on those six prizes.
- There are two other drawings I want to post before the year ends.
- Now that the Charahub site is actually working, I'm going to make an account.
And that's it. Told you it'd be tiny.
I have eight black wristbands that I use for my cosplay. Or rather, I HAD eight black wristbands. Somehow I lost one.
I have no idea when. It could be hiding in my apartment. It could be at one of two offices that I went to yesterday. It could be at a huge shopping mall nearly that's nearly a two-hour drive away from me.
And how did it come off? I didn't feel it come off. I would have felt it if it broke and it's not wide enough to just fall off my wrist. Maybe it got pushed off when I took off my coat.
I called all the places where it could have been. I got no affirmative answers. And now I'm all bummed because if it's gone for good, I'd have to order another one off of eBay, and the place where I ordered them from is currently out. So now I can't do my extremely subtle cosplay.
All this fretting over a possession... I really am Greed.
Just FYI, Viz Media is taking a fan survey. There are even prizes involved.
Actually I don't even care if I get the prizes. There's a part at the end of the survey that lets you add titles you'd like to see from Viz. And you guys already know that I want those FMA guidebooks. Yep, it always comes back to FMA. But that's how I roll. And it's pretty convenient that Viz licensed the manga, so I didn't really have a reason not to suggest they publish the guidebooks. So, if they actually publish them, that would be just as good a prize as a bunch o' free DVDs.
I'm just kicking myself for not mentioning T7DS. D'oh! But I'm sure they're competing for it. Heck, I don't care if Viz gets it or not. Just somebody better get it soon because they just aired an episode with one of my favorite scenes from the manga and I'm going crazy because I can't watch it! I know I could watch a fan sub, but the people who make those are trolls.

Hey, all.
If you remember, I posted a list of Challenge ideas that people could host. Well, KyraChan decided to take one of those ideas in a different direction. Instead of creating a traditional Challenge, she has created a World in which any Otakuite-- no matter what their specialty is-- will submit a fan work with a poem. Click to find out more.
Now I'm off to sign up.
Dear fellow Naruto fans,
As you know, the manga has just concluded. Now, I'm going to be blunt and say this: PLEASE DON'T SPOIL THE ENDING!!!!!! That means, don't post fan works with the ending given away in the titles. Don't go blogging about the ending without spoiler warnings. See my post on "R.I.P. So-And-So" for details.
I highly doubt this will nip some fans' disregard for courteousness in the bud. Still, should I see anything related to what I just asked fans not to do, I will post a link in the offenders' respective comment boxes. I really hope I don't have to do that.
Fellow fans, all I'm asking is to be considerate of those of us who don't read illegal manga scans-- or read the manga at all and just watch the anime. I know how dearly many of you love the series. Just please show some restraint when talking about the conclusion or making tribute fan works.
Thank you.
Keba Si Rota
