I highly doubt you've read this crazy post that I made nearly three years ago. Once you click the link and read it, come back and read the rest of this.
After some thought, I've decided that I want to delete my half-registered MAL account. I want to delete it so that it can free up my username (KebaFox) in case anyone in cyberspace wants to claim it. The problem is that I don't know how to delete it. After all, there is no possible way for me to log in. I know a bunch of you (somehow) have MAL accounts, so could I have one brave volunteer step up and ask the admin type people there to delete it? If you could help me, I'd be grateful. And I'll give you a gift.
Now it's time for a shameless plug!
If by chance you don't have a My Anime List account, and have an Anime-Planet one instead, I'd like to connect with you. My username there is also KebaFox. If you don't have either, I recommend you join Anime-Planet for a multitude of reasons. At the very least, they've got a great admin who actually responds in a timely manner if you have a problem to report.
I don't know if I've done this already, but just for kicks, I'm going to list some of my current Internet hangouts. And when I say "current", I mean, "sites that I have logged into sometime over the past five years". Note that my username doesn't change much.
DevaintART: KebaSiRota (Contains art and knitting. Will include cosplay photos in the future.)
Anime-Planet: KebaFox (For watching and keeping track of anime.)
Crunchyroll: KebaFox (For watching anime and reading manga.)
Tumblr: kebasirota (Contains recordings of original music. Posts are infrequent, but may become more common. Hopefully.)
YouTube: Keba Si Rota (Contains videos of old song performances. Updates are rare due to the fact that Google is a jerk and wants me to use my real name.)
I decided not to include my Ravelry account because, with my DA account, it's kind of redundant. Besides, I doubt anyone has an account there. I'm also excluding the kind-of dead message board that I go to on occasion.
Man, this is kind of pathetic. I need more places to hang out. Suggestions, please?
Speaking of suggestions, I need a little username advice. I want to make a CharaHub account, but I'm afraid that with the name "Keba", people are going to think that my character of the same name is a Mary Sue. Should I use the name anyway, since I'm so attached to it? I have no idea what I'd name myself if I had to pick something else.
Back when I had frequent access to the TV, I'd watch the Toonami block on Cartoon Network. I'd come home from school (it occurred in the afternoon at the time) and veg out for two hours.
These were the days before there were hundreds of series available online for viewing. You had to take what the network gave you. So I watched the limited repertoire of anime that Cartoon Network had for viewing. One of those happened to be Tenchi Muyo.
To be honest, I didn't get "Tenchi". There were too many cultural elements that I wasn't familiar with. That, and I wasn't able to catch it everyday. But I still watched it, mostly because of the cat/rabbit/spaceship, Ryo-Ohki. Hey, I got a thing for cute, made-up animals, OK?
Flash forward a decade later, and I found "Tenchi" on Hulu. I thought eventually I'd watch the episodes in order. Well, with the introduction of anime streaming on Anime-Planet, "eventually" happened late last spring (if one could call it spring).
On Anime-Planet, each anime has a series of tags that describes it. For "Tenchi" one such tag was "ecchi".
Wait a sec.
This show aired on TV! During after-school hours! Don't tell me they hacked it to bits like Sailor Moon and DBZ....
I went through a couple subtitled episodes. Nothing too bad. Maybe they didn't water it down as much as I thought. From what I saw, it looked more-less the same.
Then I got to the hot spring episode.
When that episode aired on Cartoon Network, one of the characters, a woman named Ryoko, was wearing a lavender bikini in the hot spring. When I saw the same episode online, she was completely naked. Now, it wasn't graphic or anything. Still it was very apparent that she wasn't wearing any clothes.
Suddenly everything made sense. Except for the fact that Ryoko has a tail at some points, but at other times, she doesn't.
