You're only young once, but you're NEVER too old to be immature.
Unfortunately the B&N here is still under construction... Guess i'll go check Walden Books or the local comic shop (who should have it if they know whats good for them). Like I said somewhere else...It'll prolly be the 10 or 11th before i find it here.... oh well, the point of this post was this... Congratulations The Dude!
Lycoris: What is the name of your spear?
Alberio: It is the Divine Spear of Wotan.
Lycoris: It is a Spear of God.
Alberio: That's right.

correction, once i get it tonight (10:00 P.M) i can look for things that have changed and new things and stuff. And don't post something like that because that would be useless chatting as in the other thread when he asked about the suits....lord i hate the //sign opening now...Xebexz wrote:Ermm, congratualtions, but this post.. It's got nowhere to go now, aside.. well.. congratualations. x.x;;
EDIT: Got it now! Ok, first thing's first, the title: .hack//legend of the twilight. Damn, missed the most important part! we open it and see the title page and pinup, and contents. ::read, read, read:: Shugo is still named Shugo, Rena is Rena. However, Mireille calls their skins their avatars. ::reads on:: Rena calls Shugo big bro (thank god it's not oni-chan!) Login 0 ends. Login 1 page shows Orca in a thong, not short-shorts, and Hotaru. (yes Orca, not the comatose one, but they changed Ouka's name to Orca. X.X) under the character description it says she's so powerful that she's known as "Orca, the divine fist" It also says that Balmung was "A player that was formerly know as a "Decendant of Fianna"" Formerly? It also says that he's a Mod. for CC corp. ::reads on:: Shows them in Mac Anu, for Shugo's POV. We see what looks like Gardinia, Moonstone, Tsukasa, and Mistral. Nothing interesting, nothing interesting, ooh, shows Shugo staring in at Rena's get up. "Do you have to wear such a skimpy outfit?" Damn, have to leave the net now, I'll try and finish this tommorow.

Orca!? *implodes* How could they? There's definitely going to be some confusion/disappointment over that. Especially since most MMPORPGs don't let you have a screen name that's already taken. And Ouka sounds cooler. >_>
Did you hafta say "Orca in a thong" before you explained it? I got bad mental images... *twitch*

I was afraid that would happen.
Ouka -could- be mistranslated as 'Orca' if the people translating at NO FSCKING IDEA OF WHAT THEY WERE DOING. 'Ouka' is more than likely a play off of 'Ookami' which is 'wolf' in Japanese. They'd do better to call her 'Ohka'.
The long 'o' can be, sometimes by mistake, translated to an 'r' sound. Orca's name in the games is 'o-ru-ka', giving it a more definite 'r' sound. 'Ouka', however, simply has an implied 'r' sound, which the translaters decided to use.
Ugh. -UGH-. That's annoying.
As far as calling it 'Legend of the Twilight', however, that's because 'Legend of the Twilight Bracelet' wouldn't actually fit well on the cover of the manga >_>;

The mystery of Ouka/Orca is finally solved! I read the rest of the manga last night, and after a long scene with Orca/Ouka in wolf form, she talks (as a wolf) and transforms into her 'natural' self. Shugo asks if that's another type of player, and she says that she got it from an expansion package for "The World". There are many requirements to get that 'career' as they call it, and only high level characters can get it. Ah, and at the end is some funny stuff. A strip long comic starts with Shugo 'going super sayin', or at least that's what it looks like. Then Balmung says, "Gah! Kite's energy is maxed out! Maximum Data Drain!" Shows a crazed Kite, "Justice! KILL!" And that's it. Then there's two vertical strips, the first one with Mia saying, "It's a FACT!" Next panel "I'm the queen of misspellings. I'm always so ashamed when I read over my work." Shows a cat looking at a paper. "Aw, snap! I can't believe I spelled 'booty' with a 'u!'" "But what i misspell the most is..." Next panel, shows that cat writing on a paper. Leigion of the TwiLite. Lejind of hte TwyLight. Legind of Tom Twyker. Legende of tha TwiLLite. "And if you think my spellings bad, you should see my sketeches!" (All spelling errors are intentional)

Wait a minute...now I'm confised...above you said "Kite," Don't you mean Shugo? or does Kite actually show up? And how could they mess with Ouka's name...whats more how could they change it to Orca! Geez. Oh well, think I'll just take a sharpie, black out the ''r'' and change it ''u'' every time her name is mentioned.
