The Yuka Takeuchi Fan Hands Over The Reins For A Bit- Ask Rei Anything

Ask Rei Anything
This is Rei. If the icon hadn't provided earlier indication back on the main page.

December 15, 2004- This is what I get for waiting so long, stupid exams...

Ohhhh my.
Hey there, Rei!!!

's me, MK&MF! Thank you for clearing up that little misunderstanding! I guess this means you'll continue to get my questions! Here are my questions, and one of them really has me baffled: number 2.

1) Which anime would you recommend I buy: "Saint Seiya", "Jungle De Ikou!" or "Excel Saga"?
2) How can everyone in "Case Closed", the new anime on Cartoon Network, seriously not notice that Conan looks exactly like Jimmy except for glasses and a slight difference in height?
3) Why are the armor suits in "Saint Seiya" called "cloths"? I ask because that armor is DEFINITELY NOT A STINKING CLOTH!!!
4) What is up with the name changes in "MegaMan NT Warrior"?! (you know, FireMan became TorchMan, ClownMan changed to WackoMan, NapalmMan was changed to MoltanicMan, BombMan to BlasterMan... the list goes on!!! What an insult!!!)
5) I looked up "F3" after last time I e-mailed. The funny thing is I wasn't looking for it, I just randomly found a review on OMGJeremy.com. I see why you didn't explain it in the response. My question is: Is it really as crappy as he said it was? (He said the second one only took a half hour, but it felt like 9999999999999 hours, or something in that range...)
6) Why does Miroku from "InuYasha" continue to touch Sango's butt when he knows the result will be either a severe beating or a HUGE slap on the face?
7) Why is it so difficult to find a copy of "Jungle De Ikou!" at the anime stores?
8) Vat ees thees "Nami SOS" that YTF is making a gallery of?
9) When exactly is "Eiken" coming to America? You don't have to answer if you don't know, but if you don't know, at least give me an estimate.
10) Why do people freak out when I tell them I got a sword for Christmas? (Yes, this IS a serious question. My uncle used to just make me toy swords. What a shock for a present, isn't it?)
11) WHY WON'T DISH NETWORK ADD ANIME NETWORK TO THE TV CHANNEL LISTINGS?!!?
12) Who was the first guy who saw a cow and decided "I think I'll drink whatever comes out of these things when I squeeze them?"
13) If the Final Fantasy games are truly FINAL fantasies, shouldn't they have ended eleven games ago? (WE SUE!!!)

Sorry for the slightly larger question sheet this time. I've gained a lot of questions since last time, and I thought I should get the big ones out of the way. Be glad I avoided my questions regarding FLCL, Taco Bell, Family Guy, White Castle and Mattel. Especially the White Castle one. Anyway, I'll probably need a little time to come up with more questions, so if I don't send any new e-mails by the time you answer more in about 2 months, don't worry, I haven't given up. Take care, Miss Rei. YOU are a great teacher and a greater... um... Japanese person. *salutes* Now, I've gotta go hunt for the One Piece! See ya! *Gum-Gum Rockets out the window, breaking it* SORRY! I'LL PAY FOR THE REPAIRS!!! *Uses Gum-Gum Pistol through window, opens fist to drop $1500, returns fist to normal* BYE!!!
Sincerely,
The Mizuki, Kirika & Mifuyu Fan

Oh my, that's quite a few. Well, I'll just have to do my best!

Answer 1: I remember that Mr. Y.T.F. liked Jungle de Ikou!, but remember what he's into. However, he also likes Excel Saga a LOT considering its general lack of fanservice (even when you don't count a few of the episodes).
Answer 2: Ask Usagi Tsukino... Pseudo-kidding aside, remember that in the world of anime, disguises are easy to form. For example, people would think I was someone else if I took out my hair clip and brushed down those little 'antennae' on my hair. Being four feet shorter, wearing glasses, and having a much more rounded face is overkill.
Answer 3: There are three explanations I can think of. One, it's a mistranslation. Two, it's a really, really, really hard cloth. Three, whoever came up with the name of the armor was an idiot.
Answer 4: It seems rather ridiculous to me too; I don't think they changed them much in the actual video games... I suppose that they were trying to make them sound more menacing or less awkward to say, but... a lot of people, me included, doubt how effective that was.
Answer 5: Well, you have to remember the whole point of OMGJeremy. He ALWAYS makes fun of stuff there, so what he says may not always be accurate, plus he seems rather jaded by hentai in general. It's not that bad a series, really, certainly better than G-Cup Teacher Rei.
Answer 6: I'm guessing- only guessing- that Miroku has a secret submissive side of him. That is to say, he enjoys being beaten up by women, and enjoys pain (I didn't say that it was a WEAK submissive side, you know). It's either that, or he's simply an overly hopeful fool with no sense of pattern recognition.
Answer 7: I know it sucks that you can't find it, but you'd better not get your hopes up unless you're into buying online. Remember, it's technically been out for nearly five years, as it was once on VHS. Mr. Y.T.F. is fully aware of this as that's the version he owns. It's reasonably safe to assume that in that five years, just about everyone who wanted to buy it had already bought it, and thus sales dropped significantly. Stores don't like to stock items that don't sell, so few stores (especially those that aren't order-based and thus have to go through a marketing intermediary) will carry it because it's too much cost and effort to do so compared to the payoff. Which, I must note, seems weird as Mr. Y.T.F. has certainly been hearing a demand for it, but then, it's VERY likely that the people asking for it are so spread out that it STILL isn't worth the gamble for stores.
Answer 8: It's a super-heroine hentai series where the busts are big and the tentacles fly! ...Although, despite that, there isn't as much actual hentai as one would think...
Answer 9: December 15, 2004, at least for the anime. For the manga, Mr. Y.T.F. says something about 'third quarter, 2005'... I hear that they'll only release six volumes if it's unpopular, though.
Answer 10: I guess that people just feel the slightly remote possibility of decapitation from that sword to be scary. If you're a violent person, it might be a well-founded fear, although I doubt you are. So everyone else is probably paranoid.
Answer 11: Well, demand your anime! Goofing around aside, I would have to say that the demand for it simply isn't high enough yet for your service. I would assume that if demand is high enough (and enough people could pay for it), your provider would be perfectly happy to add it. Until then, though, I hate to say it, but I think you'll just have to wait it out...
Answer 12: Hmm... That probably wasn't Calvin... I'm joking, I'm joking, but I know that's where you got the question. Now, I don't know EXACTLY who the person was, although I do have my suspicions, however, that this person's mindset was something akin to "Hmm, milk comes out of female breasts... but milk comes out of what amounts to cow breasts, and is easier to obtain and tastes better... Hey yeah!" Seriously, I remember hearing that a possible first use of cow milk for human consumption was dated at 3000 BC, by the ancient Babylonians, as unearthed in an archeological dig.
Answer 13: It does seem rather suspect... Perhaps they're all taking place at the same time, and we just don't know it? Perhaps it has something to do with these 'alternate universe' theories I hear so much about...

Whew- there we go! I hope that does the trick! Don't be afraid to ask the White Castle question, though.

...Thanks for the compliment and financial aid, by the way.

Oh no... so confusing...
Miss Rei have you ever meet any of the girls from Doki Doki Princess? I was also wondering if you could tell me anything about it?

When I asked you why I was neither in this world or out of it You said quote "That's because you have one leg in the dimensional rift and the other leg outside of it, silly!". OK so how do I get my body and mind through it intact so I can finally meet you in person? Mind you that the whole intact part is kind of moot as neither my mind nor body are very stable, I leave it up to you to decide what "unstable body" means.

Now a very complicated question, If I live at home but am off in space all day, yet I am told I as dense as a brick how long should I stay in orbit around mars?

Tell Mr. Y.T.F to get this next update done quickly and to include lots of gifs!

I love the little tacos I love them gggoooooood.

What an array of questions and statements... Well, I'll do my best!
Answer 1: I hate to say it, but I can't help you on this one. I've never met them.
Answer 2: Hmm... Getting through it intact, right? I think that if you got one leg through it without causing any damage or unintended aging (or lack of aging), you could probably just jump on through the rest of the way. However, it might still have unintended consequences for you if you do so, so I'd wait until more information about these dimensional rifts is found. I wouldn't want you to be lost in the circuits of time and space.
Answer 3: About two minutes, thirty-seven seconds. Your orbit will quickly decay afterwards, but more slowly so if you 'get it together', as Ayumu Kasuga would say.
Answer 4: I think he'll do what he can, hopefully the Eiken and Mitsuka gifs were enough for a while. If not, I guess it's up to him to decide what to do, but I imagine that he'll try to get more pictures of Miss Mitsuka, at the very least.
Answer (?) 5: ...I'm sure you do...

Well, I hope that helps, but don't be too quick to mess around in sub-space!

Starting with answers, jeopardy ensues...
M.Y.F. here,
Hmmmm, lets see what you got...

My first question: Why is it that you suppose I've been getting so many compliments lately?
A#1 I dunno. Perhaps people like to compliment you because you solved their problem(s). Or, they might just be really nice.Or, They might just think your really beautiful. I don't blame them, looking at your pic and all. You never know. And I don't think I'll ever know either.

My second question: Why do you think that the company that animated my movie saw fit to allow me to have as much motion in my body as a stungun victim?
A#2 As heartless as this may sound, you may have been a "sideline" person. Coming in and out every once in a while. If that wasn't the case... your animators may have "slacked off". You know? Like goofing off instead of drawing your animations. It really hurts me to say this, but some animators don't care about their work. As long as they get money they're happy. That's not a good thing. I'm really sorry to say that, but it's true. that does happen.

My third question: Do you think there's a reason why all school nurses in anime have to be total sluts?
A#3 Perhaps to satisfy the perverse male consumer and his fantisies, If that's the side you want to address... Or your probably looking in the "wrong" section. OH! AH HA! An anime where that isn't true! Nurse Witch Komugi Even though I havent seen the actual episode, I've read like 5 reviews. One quote: magical girl and cosplay humor slathered on thick "plenty of fan service-y scenes..." True, but humor and fanservice can be added greatly without slutty people. Take Ken Akamatsu's latest work. Negima! In the manga, humor and fanservice galore, but no slutty people. (I should know, I've read it myself... Laughing my ass off with it.) Hey! It has no nurses! Hmmm...I'll have to really look into this... Hmmm {going off in a blank state of mind}

ANYWAY... I'm glad you had some your questions answered. It's hard to be asked but not able to ask. Well, anytime you gotta ask something, I'm there.

I got a question for you now. Why the Hell is anime and manga so damn addictive?! I mean sure, some people don't like it, some people don't care for it, some people want to get rid of it... To me, it's a way of life... and a way of being broke. but why? Why are they here? Why do I like them? What's got me so wired on them? Why do they cost so much? Don't answer that. I know why. Stupid import cost. $10 a book. So costly. Now those are some thinking questions. Hope you can answer them! And the best of luck with talking to Miss Yuri! Oh, I gotta go now. Darn. See ya' later.

Thanks for answering my questions; now let me do yours.
To be honest, anime and manga is only as addictive as you let it become, much like smoking, drinking, and (Oh, you know I do it without being told so by Miss Rei. -Y.T.F.). As for why it exists, it's for the same reason that anything else exists, someone just felt like making it, and it was seen as commercially viable to bring into the marketplace. As for why you like it, it's because you obviously only personally buy those that interest you- so of course you'll like THOSE animes and mangas! And yes, you pretty much answered your own question as to why anime and manga is so expensive. Remember, in addition to typical distribution costs, people must ALSO get the license AND translate it, which can hurt profits! ...Although, a question I've had for a while STILL has me wondering, why in the world did subtitled anime cost more than dubbed anime in America back in the VHS days?

...Well, with that curiosity in place, see you later!

Carving out questions and taking names!
It is I, RLB again. Thank you for answering my questions about the bee, and bathing in blood.
I have some more...
1. If you've ever played Soul Calibur II and Super Smash Brothers: Melee, what character from SSBM would fit into SC II? I myself would like to see Roy (originally from Fire Emblem) as a playable character in SC II. Since Link worked out so well for the GameCube version, Roy should also be great.
2. If you DO play SC, who's your best character(s)? I just purchased it myself four days ago, but I'm getting pretty good with Kilik, Talim, and Link. I don't know many fancy moves, but my reaction time allows me to do fairly well.
3. Do you think that if I ever had a son one day, and I named him Lil' Pantyhose (Like Pantyhose Tarou from Ranma ½) Peter, he'd kill me in my sleep (when he's old enough to realize how horrible his name is)?
4. Rei, have you or Y.T.F ever had the opportunity to use the words "egregious", "cantankerous" and "chicken" together in one sentence? I bet you'll just use them all in your response to this letter in your first sentence and call it a day, won't you? That's what I'd do, because I'm lazy.

Until next time,
RLB

Interesting mix of questions... Oh well, I said 'anything' and I meant it!

Answer 1: I'd have to agree, Roy (and possibly Marth) would fit the best into the atmosphere of Soul Calibur II. The point in time that SCII and those two characters would likely be from would seem to be close enough in proximity.
Answer 2: I don't think I've played it before, but I recall that although Mr. Y.T.F. hasn't played it much either, he does fairly well with Seung Mina, possibly because he's (Mr. Y.T.F., I mean) got his act together when it comes to sidestepping.
Answer 3: He probably wouldn't go to THAT extreme (although he'd HAVE to buff up considerably in order to combat the inevitable teasing he'll have to endure until then), but I'd expect him to get his name changed as soon as possible, move out as soon as possible, and I also doubt that you'll hear from him much afterwards.
Answer 4: Never before for either of us, especially because the adjectives given are so widely different from each other, and even if we DID use them in a sentence, it's very likely, if not inevitable, that there'd be a comma in at least one location. I'm not one for spite, so I won't just make one up here.

I'm glad I helped you earlier; hope I helped again.

Birthdays and boobies!
Hey Rei its me again, how you doin. I have more questions for you.
When is your birthday? just curious.
Will there ever be a gallery of you on the YTF site?
If you squeezed your breasts will milk squirt out?
What music do you enjoy listening to?
If you blow through a girl's nipple will the breast get bigger?
Is it true that if a girl went on plane in the air, her breasts will get bigger?
Thanks c u l8a

You seem sort of familiar... Oh well, a question list is a question list; let's do it!
Answer 1: April 2.
Answer 2: There is one now, actually. I'm hardly proud of it, but enough people wanted to see one, so I won't begrudge anybody. I hope you like it.
Answer 3: Ow, ow, ow, ow, OW, I REFUSE to test that! My breasts are too sensitive for that! In addition, I'm not a water balloon, I don't lactate like THAT!
Answer 4: I prefer calm, soft-spoken music. I'm not much for listening to music with lyrics, either, I prefer the more soothing feelings that instrumental music brings me. I have a feeling that someone will ask this, so I'll mention now that there isn't any particular group I'm a fan or enemy (so to speak) of.
Answer 5: I... don't... think... so... I've never heard of anything like this, but I don't think that it would work. I imagine that if air were to go in a person's nipple, it would simply just find some way to escape through another avenue in the body. Also, I don't think that doing such a thing would cause a woman's breast skin to expand anyway, and would perhaps instead cause complications, pain, and in EXTREME worst-case scenarios, tearing of flesh.
Answer 6: Although I believe you've instantly cured Mr. Y.T.F.'s fear of flying, I don't think anyone's ever tested this... It seems more like a myth than anything, so I assume that either that's not true, or that it IS true but breasts grow by so little that it's very hard to notice.

You've... got quite a mind in you!

The SOS is sent again!
Do you know any good site for downloads, pictures, images, storyline, or places to buy Nami SOS! Where do you get your information for Nami SOS? Pleas help.

You are not going to like what I have to say, but sadly, the only site I know of that can help even a little for pictures and images... You're there already! Unfortunately, Mr. Y.T.F. never had a lot of information about Nami SOS!, it was mostly a couple of pictures he saw on one website ('The Big Bust Anime List', it's rarely updated) with no real plot summary. Basically, to Mr. Y.T.F., all it amounts to is, and I quote- 'Evil incubus thingies are all over the place, for no other reason than the fact that it's a monster figure known to screw the hell out of women, and that they do. For reasons unexplained, five and ONLY five women, several of which are obviously victims of them despite being able to kick their asses into next week (it's a hentai thing), are able to kill them. Thing is, Nami's new to the job (one of the original five inexplicably went down) (likely two ways), so of course she's gotta get over her fears and ineptitudes, and of course she gets screwed and forgets about it three minutes later all in The Name Of Justice'. As for downloads, there is no place where you can get it whenever you want; not for free. Your best bet is to get an account on Hongfire, and hope for a working torrent.

Good luck, and I hope that Mr. Y.T.F.'s summary was entertaining and useful!

"Girls and Games"
(Please list my name as Bigeshu and don't list my email addy)
Hey, Here's a short three parter for you? Hopefully it won't be too much a bother. Well Here we go! (In order of actual interest)
1) Why is it that RPGs these days suck?! I mean I bought fable a week ago and already beat it, finding out that despite all my effort at being a good guy I could throw that all away by a mere choice at the end. I mean it seems like RPGs these days have less 'freedom' and 'attention to effort' than the worst Hentai Dating sim. What do you and YTF think?
2) If I invited you to my Roleplaying group would you come?
3) I have a bad case of charlie brown syndrome (I.E. Sees-Girl-He-Wants-To-Ask-Out-But-Never-Goes-Up-To-Bat-Itis)? Is there anyway I can put this under control (or at least any insight on why? There are people in my life I'd like to go further with but...

Okay, Mr. Bigeshu, I won't add your e-mail address (although, truth be told, I never do that anyway, so don't worry a bit!). Now, on to your questions!
Answer 1: As Mr. Y.T.F. claims, 'it sucks because you think it sucks'. That is to say, RPGs, or really, any other game, can either suck or kick ass depending ENTIRELY on the person playing it. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't like Fable, though. Maybe you'll get lucky selling it to somebody else, it's certainly been hyped enough to garner attention.

However... I think that most RPGs are okay, and so does Mr. Y.T.F. (he really seems to like Star Ocean 3, and he swears by the Nippon Ichi games), but then, I know for a fact that Mr. Y.T.F. is NOT big on hype. You see, I know that he buys quite a few hyped-up games, such as 'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' or the before-mentioned 'Star Ocean 3', but the thing was, he was a fan of both series LONG before any sort of hype was around about them. That said, I say that in order to avoid being burned (so to speak) in the future, never buy a game based on hype alone- check as many sources as you can, and try to pick up on any track records that you can deduce before you buy. I know that I've gotten away from your original question, but I felt that what I said was worth telling you to help you.

Answer 2: Well, even if I knew of an easy and cheap way to get to where you are, I'd still like to know what games you had in mind before I came over. I'm sure that if I could, I would, though.
Answer 3: Maybe you're like Mr. Y.T.F., you're just shy and don't really know how to approach women. I think that the best way to overcome it is to think of something that won't make you feel shy (in other words, DON'T TALK ABOUT THE GIRL'S APPEARANCE OR ELSE YOU'LL LIKELY GO INTO A BLUSHING FIT), and talk about that instead. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot I can say about how to get over being too shy to so much as go up to the girl in the first place, other than 'go for it without thinking of the consequences'. Remember, you don't really have anything to lose at this point in your life. You may get your heart broken a few times, but realistically, I believe you're at the point in your life where you'll probably just find another girl sooner or later anyway and forget all about the old one. Just do your best, though, and try to look at the girl's face as much as you can, even if you're blushing like a beet- maybe the girl will find it cute!

Hope that helps!

So forward...
hey Rei do like to tit (NOT saying it! -Rei)

Well... I'll put it this way, I can think of far worse ways to spend an evening, but I'd probably prefer just doing it normally. It's just so messy...

Please let me hear more of your advice, Miss Rei.

Thank you Rei! Now lead me back to the Yuka Takeuchi Fan!
