Sorry for the late responses everyone!

@Saya - I just added you as well! :D

@Destinie - It's not blasphemy! The anime was amazing! xD I actually got into Ouran from the anime rather than the manga - usually it's the other way around :)

@Kibumie - Hmmm, really? :'3 I wasn't aware there was really a style to anything other than ABSOLUTE CHAOS and INSANE DISORGANIZATION :D I'd love to affiliate!! I added First Flame to Nephologic's affiliates :D Looks like we like a lot of the same characters then! xD I have the layout for the Hitachiin twins finished, but absolutely zero work done for Haru T.T

@Ava - Me toooooooooo! Yami no Matsuei is actually one of the first manga series I started buying and collecting. I actually have the first four volumes on the side of my bed right now because when we lost power, I was rereading them with a flashlight xD I did it to take notes on Hisoka, but I just ended up getting sucked in and forgot to o.o; THIS IS THE REAL REASON WHY THERE ARE ALMOST NO YAMI NO MATSUEI SHRINES xD And believe me - if I'm anything at all, it is definitely old school xD

@Joe - Thank you very much! I have a feeling that one is going to require a lot of work, but I have the layout done at least :) I'm really glad to hear it since most people don't really like Hope xD;;

hahaha. That's a great reason for why ynm shrines never get done. If you ever pull yourself away long enough to take notes, let me know if I can help you with any content on the shrine.

Ah yeah. I think the Anime is just great! I actually kind of liked the ending to the anime, my sister hated it, but I think it kept with the overall spirit of the series. It's one of the few animes I actually had to go purchase. :D

Also, I checked out Firebrand. I am definitely going to read through it again, but I really liked it! I had only gotten so far into D.Gray-man years ago and knew he was a popular character, so it's neat to see your take on him! ^^

@Ava - I started working on it recently :) I'll definitely ask you if I need to, thanks for the offer! :)

@Destinie - I thought the anime was pretty good, but I watched it in the dub version and still cringe every time I think about or hear Hisoka's dub voice x.x But I agree, it kept with the mood of the manga :)

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it :D D.Gray-man is one of the three series I'm keeping myself updated with right now xD Lavi is just awesome~

I've never been bothered by a dub before. Okay, I did find Serena/Usagi's voice from the later english episodes (the ones with the outer senshi and beyond) to be annoying... But mostly I'm just thankful to have voices I can understand since I don't like reading. XD

Honestly, dub voices sometimes bother me. But then again, original Japanese voices sometimes bother me xD So it's really just a personal preference thing and less of an "I AM DUB HATERZ!!!!1112onetwo" thing :D Just the voice actors they chose for almost every character in the Yami no Matsuei English dub got under my skin -.-; But I watched it anyway for almost the same reason as you, because I wanted to be able to understand what they were saying when I looked away, since I was multitasking at the time xD I understand that completely, not wanting to read it :D

I generally don't like listening to voices I can't understand, regardless of the language. So that means I only really like English and Spanish dubs. Although Portuguese isn't to hard. I can't speak a word of it, but I can understand a little. Yami No Matsuei didn't bother me. I guess I'm pretty tolerant since it was just that one version of Serena/Usagi that I disliked.

And yes! Multitasking! I'm so impatient lately. I can't just sit and watch. Usually I have a video on one window and something else on another. I almost never sit down only to watch something. There's also the part about not liking reading in general. I don't read things beyond short sentences here and there. For paragraphs, I have the computer read it to me. XD

I agree with that. Sometimes the dub is good other times it's awful. Like I love the English Dub for Excel Saga and Slayers but I hate it for Ouran High School and Fullmetal Alchemist. I think it really just depends on the talent they pick.

Oh man, but sometimes they do cheap dubs for movies they translate and it's all just 1 or 2 guys doing all the voices. That's bad but sometimes hysterical. XDDD
