Thank you for the pimping of my pimping, as it were. :)

I'm trying to think of ways to encourage fandom growth without coming across as either a total noob spaz or like I'm trying to be Queen of Oofuri. I just want lots of other people to play too.

Thanks for writing the pimp post, it makes it so easy to try to convince people (you know, GO HERE as opposed to writing something up...).

Just write fic! That seems to suck people in. ^_~

I will definitely be writing fic! But it seems a little too soon for that, seeing as I've only been able to follow what's been translated of the manga and the five anime eps.

In the meantime, I'll just have to flail. :)

I hadn't realized your pimping post was public!

GUREEEEEEEEITOOOO!!! Don't worry, let me do the next pimping then, but I shall use your post as the main *hook*, because it summarizes all my impressions of what I have read so far, and I cannot express it better. Besides, your efforts deserve credit :D

Thanks again and again and again and again...

(Also, I have discovered some friends of mine followed this series in the shadows O__o This is like coming out of the baseball closet...)

Very public. :) I'm trying to suck in as many people as I can, after all.

Please feel free to link up all you want and I look forward to your pimping efforts! That will be effective, definitely.

This series is just so special! And in a way, I'm trying to prepare for when the PoT manga is over. I don't think I'll ever be done with tenipuri, but I know that the fandom will start to wane once there is no new canon coming out. (It makes me sad to think about that, though!)

To me Tenipuri as I knew it finished with the anime series. I still have to watch the OAVs, but I have had this kind of religious philosophy about my most beloved series ever since Captain Tsubasa: first canon is MY canon. And in my case, I am depending on doujinshi to keep me hooked for many years to come. Only, fandom will inevitably die or become a "classic", as it usually happens.

But PoT is lasting for so long!

I am glad we can keep on sharing other things that preserve the network we have somehow created, together. At least for a longer time than an anime's popularity span : )
