If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

Uh... Those are weird options...

And I hate to always mention this, but you have to put Spoiler Tags there... >_>

+ Show Spoiler +
Anyways, I prolly would go out with her. She loves you very deeply, sure in a creepy stalkerish kind of way, but that seems to be the "in" thing nowadays anyways.

Well I wasnt sure to put spoilers or not because it a pretty old anime and sometime when we talk about old anime we sometime dont put spoilers or something iono lol.

It mainly a Yes, Maybe, No question. I just added the stuff after that for humor.

+ Show Spoiler +
I voted yes, since she does seems to really love you. Although I kinda fear that if things might not work out, she might be yandere on you and kill you. So I just voted to be friends.

Not offensive ofc. I just wonder if it's like that since you have no need for subs ever while finns never watch with native language any shows (practically).

Oh god...English voice actors probably don't even know what a tsundere is.

So what did they call tsundere? xD
Philologies just can't match.. :O Even subs have alot fails in them.. It help's that you can also listen jap dub same time and understand that the word actor uses might not be translated right in subs. ( See wierdo, pervert, geek and hentai titles)

Probably because a lot of us Americans don't read. Not including myself, <3 books yo. It's difficult to read fast when the only time you look at actual text is on forums.

"Tsundere" just isn't a theme you see outside of Japanese works that much. Occasionally you'll see a character who shows similar signs of being tsun-tsun, but it's not a typical archetype in TV and movies here as it is in anime and manga. If a VA doesn't read/watch a lot, the personality traits might be lost on them.

Also, back to what he was asking for, I know Durarara runs on Adult Swim, but I dunno if that means you can find it somewhere or have to pick up in the middle now. I'd like to see the dubs, though, because fuck yeah just found out Johnny Yong Bosch is in it. He's Vash, he's Ichigo, he's Lelouch. How do you not love this guy?


I actually had the honor of seeing Johnny Yong Bosch live and being in the same room with him at an anime con. Sadly, I was not able to meet him or get his signature since I was a volunteer and was responsible for guard duty at his interview. qq

Re Amagami: That's a really biased poll. + Show Spoiler [Amagami SS] +
Stalker-chan was an interesting character. Your poll kind of just reduces her to either an objectified female, or a complete terror. There's not much in-between.

She's a horrifying stalker chick who's been ruining all your booty and in a way your life. And given you Christmas trauma. How is there anything redeemable about that.

Wasnt trying to be bias but...+ Show Spoiler [Amagami] +
Well sorry if the poll came off bias. I was definitely not aiming for it to be like that. The main question I wanted to know if yall were willing to accept a girl like that feeling after all she done to you. I think she was also an interesting character. She was very unique and showed someone that didnt stood out like the other character because the rest of the character were some what popular within the school, unlike Risa who was just a girl that blended in the back ground. In the end she did crumbled under guilt and decided to tell him the truth which showed that she is a good person.

All I wanted from the poll was a Yes, No, or Maybe. Knowing that yall have watch the anime, yall should be able to put yourself in the situation and make up your own opinion.

And the "Can not comply cause I like men" should of been pretty obvious that my poll was half joking >.>
