From what I've seen scanlated, no I haven't seen any Tear flashbacks. It's possible that there are some raws out there with some, though, if they've gotten to any scenes like that in the manga yet.

All right. Just thought I'd check. Thanks, though! ^^;

I have to say, I feel like whoever's drawing the mangas is more of a Natalia/Asch fan than they are of Tear or anyone else...the former two have gotten so much exposure, it's not even funny <.<

Funny to hear about the book you're reading with all the TotA coincidences XD

As for your meme, I guess I'll ask about the Tear Grants you're roleplaying :p

Which one, and what would you like to know about her? Although I'm guessing you're asking about the one I roleplay more frequently at Memento Eden. XD

Ah. Poor Tear/others. =/ Although I do like Asch/Natalia.

Yes, I was really amused at the time. I totally bought it before I got into this big Abyss kick.

Oh sorry I didn't clarify that, heh, how about the Ad Libitim one? Maybe in terms of romance XD

I'll give you both, since Ad Libitum is new and we still haven't had a Luke sign up, although this is the third time one has been reserved. XDD ( ... )

um... Can I ask Tear in ME what she thinks of... Rika? -wondering if Tear realizes how evil Rika really is-

Reply

cherryfox May 16 2009, 04:43:09 UTC
She has absolutely no idea that Rika is evil. =3 She thinks Rika is quite cute and with a little practice, Rika could learn how to set off her "cute/fangirling mode" on command. XD

She is of a mindset that cute things are cute and totally innocent and that's the end of it. Therefore if Rika gets bullied, she'll step in. She would also totally mother/big sister Rika if Rika wanted her to. XD

(Although that's not to say she doesn't think Rika's capable of teasing/playing "harmless" jokes on people. Example being that she doesn't particularly get any evil vibes from Luke, either even though he was supposedly bullying Rika.)

Just in case you're considering Tsubasa, I would definitely suggest reading the manga rather than watching the anime. The anime, while sort of pretty, is actually a really poor adaptation and the characters are sort of OOC (i.e. they "straighten out" Fay, have Kuro make inappropriate flirt-noises at Sakura, etc.). It's really fucking weird. XD HOWEVER, when you get to the later chapters of the manga, there's a really excellent OVA adaptation that was done by a different studio that's five episodes long if you want to watch those to get the look of it moving and the sound of the voices and stuff. There's also a movie too, but I think that one is harder to find online.

Ah, see, I am actually somewhat (key: somewhat) familiar with Tsubasa! =D I started watching the anime's first season back when it came out, and I've read the manga through volume 8 (although this was quite a long time ago and not very far all thing's considered).

I plan to read the rest eventually, but I'd rather buy what I need in bulk used on ebay or somewhere for less money, since the total for all of them new would be pretty expensive cuz it's so long (I tried doing this with Skip Beat! and had limited success, it's also very long and ongoing). I watched the first episode of the OVA and have started the second season (also a while back, have it all downloaded =X).

And I actually have seen the movie around online but when I downloaded it (still a while back) the track with the voices in it was so quiet it was almost impossible to hear, so I gave up. ^^;

Oh awesome *LOL* I was going off of what you had listed back on the friending meme so I wasn't sure. If you are liking the anime, more power to you. I just got burned really bad by it so it's my instict to warn people about it (there's an entire arc where they just sit. On a bus. Forever and ever. WTF).

Buying the Tsubasa manga would be wise, seeing as the scanlations go completely south a lot of the time. XD Damn, if you lived nearby I would lend it to you. @.@ Do you not like reading manga online?

I also had to open up all sixty-or-so pictures and convert them all to .tif, CMYK, 300dpi. WHAT. FUN~! [/sarcasm].

I don't know if it was an option you could do... but have you looked into Adobe's batch processing method? You would record the actions for one image (so change to cymk, 300 dpi, save as tif, close) and then batch process the whole folder? Sometimes it works for certain things.

I tried doing something like that, but I haven't figured out how it works exactly yet. I plan to look it up, though, and try it next time. Seems like it'd save me a lot of trouble.
