Oh damn, I forgot that one came out in February, eh? I'll have to mosey on over to the book store and get a copy of that, I've been collecting the Bobobo manga. I sure hope somebody gets around to releasing the TV series on DVD.

^This. Although the new one is nice.
Oh, you think the Grand Tour is your ally, you merely stepped into the Grand Tour. I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn’t see the Super until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!

I think the first few eps are out on DVD, but word on the street is (I actually think Kaboom was the one that said this) is that they aren't very good releases.

You probably heard it from me. I have them. They're not.

On topic: My avatar is Uubshinhan. It's pretty awesome.

It's Shaymin, as 3 different Super Saiyan forms. Or Formes...

OMG That is the best thing I've seen all day. :P



And yeah, what is up with Nintendo using "Formes"? No one uses that spelling anymore.

They only use it with the Legendaries, to differentiate them more.

I would totally be happy if this was in Pokemon Black ('cause I'm not going to get white).

I always get the first version (ie. (Fire)Red, (Heart)Gold, Ruby, Diamond). Which also mostly tend to be hot colors, which I prefer. And Black sounds cooler than white.

I get whichever sounds better. Blue, Silver (and I'll get Soul Silver), didn't get a Gen III game, Diamond, and I'll get Black.

As ground breaking and amazing as my last avatar was, the minute I saw Vegeta riding Nappa I thought "I have to change my avatar now!"

I'm tempted to ask for the old one, but I'm liking mine now.

Mine is Kami's lookout. It's the place where Goku did his (IMO) most important training in the entire series.

Why does it look like someone took it and squeezed it?

The Japanese franchise differs between the terms フォルメ and フォーム, so the TPCI (or whomever demanded that change) followed suit to avoid confusion.
God knows there's enough people on Pokemon forums out there bitching about why "Brock" never does any "breeding". All confusion caused by the English translations referring to "what Brock calls himself" and "what those guys who make Pokemon produce eggs call themselves" by the same word.

(Dragonball? What's that? Uh, I got a Pilaf avatar because I like Pilaf. Wee)
