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.

You Fans Infuriate Me

Dear fellow "Naruto" fans,

Stop dropping spoilers!

Just because you've seen it, doesn't mean that everyone else has. I'm way behind on watching "Shippuden". Even if I was up to date, I still don't read the manga. Even if I did read the manga, I'd only read it when it gets released legally.

What I'm trying to say is, don't go blabbing on about so-and-so's tragic death scene. I know you're shocked about the latest chapter. That doesn't mean you have to announce it to the world. I wanted to find out for myself in my own time, but now I can't.

If you do have to give a eulogy, use spoiler tags. They look like this: [SPOILER*][/SPOILER*], only without the asterisks.

Unfortunately, there is no cure for hiding spoiler titles, so when I go to my Backroom, I see all kinds of things entitled, for example, "R.I.P.* So-And-So". I don't want to see that!

When browsing the various fan works on this site, pictures of so-and-so's death scene are freaking everywhere. I understand that you want to make tributes to so-and-so, but do you really have to show that to everyone?

Personally, I'm mad as heck about this. I'm madder than I was when I was browsing "Fullmetal Alchemist" wallpapers and I stumbled across Pride's secret identity (from "Brotherhood"). To be honest, I should have known better than to actively search through images of a manga that I hadn't finished.

Contrarily, in the case of "Naruto", I wasn't looking for spoilers. You guys just threw them in my face. I can't un-see something once I've seen it.

Please change or delete your works for the sake of those that haven't yet seen them and don't want to see them. This is a community. Please be courteous to your fellow Otakuites who don't want to see major spoilers.

Sincerely,

Keba Si Rota

*Regarding that R.I.P. thing, there is SUPPOSED to be a period after EVERY letter, including the last one. This goes for everything (W.I.P., O.C., et cetera).
