Hi everyone!

I'm obviously new here and, as usual, I'm very nervous when I introduce myself to online communities such as these. I come from a land, a faraway place, where the toyi-toyi marchers roam. I'm from South Africa, somewhere in the Pretoria region. I'm male, 23, and I work for a publishing-company. I hope to visit these forums all the more. I've been lurking (like a stealth-ninja polarbear) around these forums for a day and I hope to join in on discussions soon. Thanks.

Ninja Polar Bear, receive flight!

Hmmmmm. A South Africa is a country south of the equator and north of the South Pole. It has mountains, hills, cities, towns, peas, manga, chocalates, libraries and movies. What more can you ask for? :-)

A toyi-toyi marcher is a protest marcher who toyi-toyis when he's marching. The Toyi-toyi is a funny dance which can be performed by one person (and should be performed at a march). It's hard to discribe, but if I were to describe unintelligently, I'd use the word "hopping". :-) And no, I'm serious.

Heheheheheh. Well, a lot of manga and anime stores have sprung up in recent months but I haven't read any manga yet. In fact, I have two manga graphic novels on order which should arrive any day now. (Ruorini Kenshin, Vol 1). I'll have to see how it's like before I can comment. Actually, I should have had it already, but because in April in South Africa we have 5 holidays this year (usually it's 4) so all mail-orders are getting behind. Sigh...
