MegaTokyo Forums

It appears that the Tonikawa manga has shifted gears, and is approaching it's climax. All the weird little clues in Tsukasa's backstory are now coming together. Not objecting to Tonikawa, just commenting on it: 140 chapters of bland vanilla sweetness, often apparently about whatever the author saw ...

Somehow your wording reminded me of a local invasive species, the "Himalayan" blackberry. Some genius found a particularly vigorous Armenian cultivar, and sold it all around the Pacific Northwest under the more-exotic-sounding name a century and change ago. Yes, they're sweet and juicy - and classif...

Just in case it's of interest: Old forum is apparently dead again. Or at least it feels happy, and wants to go for a walk. (^_~)

I have no way of knowing, but I doubt that many of the failed VN projects of that era were people acting in bad faith. More likely, it was just people underestimating how hard it is to pull these projects off. We’re all wiser now, I hope. When I googled random takes on it, I liked this explanation ...

It is entirely wishful thinking to believe that Largo and Erika have done the deed and it cheapens the development of that story arc for the initial awkward to have just been a blip. In this scene Erika believes that Largo is finally ready but as usual he's rather clueless I don't have any cause to...

HOW....CAN....THAT....IDIOT....BE....SO....CLUELESS?! My GOD, he's already had sex with her and been with her for most of the last while. How can he NOT have picked up on ANY of her behavior patterns? Largo SERIOUSLY has to be channeling every single spirit of STUPIDITY that might be roaming around...

why does Teddy think that Miho is the fount of all evil? It's been Teddy's schtick, err firmly held opinion for as long as I've been on the forum. He's the one constant here. Don't ever change, Teddy. :ph34r: Don't encourage him/her/it Not sure of this is some sort of corollary to Napoleon's advice...

(snip) In the past I have made it clear that I sit in Invisigoth's camp in that I believe that Great Granny is responsible for Megumi's misfortunes, either directly or indirectly. I now must say, as we watch the situation begin to unfold, that I really hope that Invisigoth and I are wrong. I really...

Even more curious: Hey Teddy, do you still think you hate Miho or didja finally admit that you're a tsunbeare? (^_~) After 20 years of comics, revelations, ruminations, and reconsideration... Miho is still psionic vampire succubus from the 237th layer of the Abyss skinwalking as a goth girl. She is...

Well it looks like that Piro is finally getting laid, and Erika is keeping Largo on a short leash. The Kitsune are taking over, and Miho is no longer dieing. Some pretty interesting changes since the beginning. Now to look forward to the next 20 years. I was uh. I was making a joke. You know, on th...

I find myself vaguely curious whether any of Largo's rant is based on an actual event, but I'm guessing it's comic license. More curious about whether iffy also drifted away... I don't see many walls of text, so it seems not unlikely. Even more curious: Hey Teddy, do you still think you hate Miho or...

It could be much worse... it could lead to the story of one of Junko's clients taking liberties. "The sale of two titties" Hahaha, 'what's wrong with you, that you'd even think that?' :) [1475] One of the curses on my brain is that it easily gets stuck cycling through permutations. Useful for comin...

Please don't tell be that all of Megatokyo has been a shaggy-dog story leading to "A city of two tails".

Now with the current situation, I see Yaku being used as bait to bring her Grandmother out of hiding. I don't think that she is in any real danger.

Ditto. Any bets on whether Kitsune-GM drops a comment on not caring about Yaku per se, but caring about her tails?

Actually, I don't think you have to extrapolate very far to understand Nabiki acting this way. We know Mugi considers "old eight-tails" to be something just short of outright evil, and moved away to shield Yaku from their dealings. IIRC Fred has alluded to them being capable of Very Bad Things in th...

There's no such thing as free will.

We're into philosophical discussions now?

Unless he was talking to someone named Will.

Iiiiiiiiiiiiinteresting. Looks like those who guessed Junpei grandma were right. *hands out internet cookies* I think Junpei grandma is underestimating Miho though. This could get ugly. I'm one of those who agreed early on, but digging around it looks like "Tiger" from the old forums deserves the b...

If you abduct a kitsune child, is it kit-napping (twice over, even)? What if knock her unconscious too? Would that be triple? No, triple would require some of this here: [476] . …although I wonder if that would also mess with some of the vowels in "kit-napping". Triple would result in "kat-nipping"...

Consider that the last time that Miho died the only people to even recall her was Piro, Ping and Junko. I suspect that Ninjagrrl has no interest in killing Miho and resetting her story because if she does then the forgetfulness will erase the contract and the Ninja won't be paid It's 5:30am and I'm...

Eep.

Well, if this is going all to the same train station... this will not lead to any sort of mental or physical scarring. I sense some sort of post coitus scene ala Life of Brian if he looks out a window(do not remember seeing one) or answers the door(the hallway would not be large enough. Maybe, all ...

I'm torn between thinking of this guy as Osaru Ossan and Professor Stranger Danger... I think the latter wins, though. Assuming that this is Ping's creator, and that he had been dating Junko for a while, I find myself wondering how much of Junko he had put into Ping... Or how much he has put into......

Yes, this guy knows what Ping is, and yes, is probably with Sony and maybe even her lead developer. I am of mixed feelings about this. His demeanor suggests an almost fatherly approach, so he might simply be interested in knowing how she's been adapting to life "in the wild". On the other hand, he'...

We could call her Voldemaria, She Who Must Not Be Named.

...yup, I prefer Nabiki as well.
