(you may have seen some of my posts already, buy here gos anyway)

:rant:

My name is A88mph as it is everywhere else on the internet (seriously, Google A88mph, and I'm there).

I'd have to say my...Intriuge with anime started around kinderguarded, when Pokemon and Salor Moon were the main animes I saw on TV. At that age, I thought they were just another amarican-made show (everything was amarican I thought even Nintendo. :lol:)

I was fasinated by the fact that I could sense somthing more in them then in the other cartoons I saw at this time. A sociologist might call this culture shock, but I call it plot, and character depth (and maybe that to).

Around the 3ed and 4th grade, I started watching Yu-Gi-Oh! (yes, the 4Kids version, still thinking it was there creation) and at that age, even there version was more awesome then most other cartoons of the time. then around 6th or 7th grade Yu-Gi-Oh! GX (still 4Kids) came out, and it was a fail in my opinion.

In time I was allowed an internet account on AOL. I chose the name 88mph for my love of the Back to the Future movies. However, AOL required that you have a letter as the 1st character in your username, and thats how I got the "A" in A88mph, and it has stuck since then.

with the internet at my fingertips, in time, I learned about alot more then I did before hand about pop culture, and started to get interested in internet pop culture (Rickroll, falconpunch, and other Memes)

and I soon learned about 4Kids for the dubbing nightmare it is, and that SM, Pokemon, YGO are called Anime, and...well you know the infinante facts the internet holds.

I also love abridged series of my fav. animes and vidergames. But I have come to notice that all the High quality ones (Littlekuribo, Team Four Star) have a lot of "bad" humor in them (its like an unspoken rule that you must have that kind of humor in order to use the best editing tools or something).

It's a good thing I have a strong moral compass, or I would be lost in the evils of the internet, but no. Instead of checking my faith at the keyboard, It guides me in all I do, online and offline. It tellsme. if I ever come across a "bad" website by mistake, I either click the back arrow buttion, or the close browser button (witchever is closer to my mouse).

I think thats all I need to say. thanks for hearing me out.

Rant over.

Anime: My favorite anime is Yu-Gi-OH! 5D's. Why? Less Fanservice, More plot.

Manga: no, not much for reading (but I do perfur subbed anime: it helps maintain the original plot).

Hobbies: I am a trekkie. need I say more? I do also play the Yugioh TCG (Duel Monsters).

Food: Chicken.

Yes, I'm a guy. (havent looked at the CP too much untill you mentioned that)

As for webcomics, I have 3 favs., all made by the same guy.

:rant:

His name is Dan Hess. He wrote Angel Moxie (a magic girl mock epic), Realms of Ishikaze (the story of the characters in an MMORPG), and Weesh (a newspaper funnies style comic). He is an Amarican manga artist/ freelance grapics designer.

His personal company is Venisproductions. (Google it, you won't regreat it :thumb:)

With his permission, I make videos with the comic pannels of Angel Moxie. (most of them are remakes of other stuff on Youtube though (example: the 2 Cleveland Tourism videos, Boot to the head, 300 trailer, ect.) You can find them on you Youtube channel "A88mph"

(Speeking of Youtube, i'm also the voice of Riku in greymon5678's Kingdom Hearts abridged. So if you want to hear my voice :))

Rant over.

WOOT! A YGO Fanatic! I hated GX, I love the original, 5D's is hilarious, but I'm glad you like it! X3

Welcome to CAA! Please make yourself at home, keep your sanity close but your brains closer and never, ever, ever let the CAA monster get you! Because it will and when it does, you will be helpless to stop it....

Oh you are a Trekkie? I love Star Trek, I suppose I am a mild Trekkie. ^^

Which do you prefer...

Coffee or tea?
Shojo or Shonen (Romance or action)?
Rurouni Kenshin or Samurai Champloo?
Apples or oranges?
Christmas or Halloween?

...We are speeking about the Subbed version right? After I learned about the horror tha 4Kids is, I went to the subbed version of 5D's.

I could watch the subbed version of GX, but honestly, I just don't have the pachense to watch about 170 episodes.

I only watch the 4Kids version of the original purely because I'm use to it.

I'm not a true Trekkie either. being born in the 90's, I have seen bit of all of the first 4 series virtually simotainiusly (but DS9 is never on cable anymore)

I am a Vice Admiral in Star Trek Online though (find me at Raven@A88mph, "big shocker":eyeroll:)
