Howdy mortals!

[Ketsurui]

Hello people, let me introduce myself...

My real name is Edgar Antonio Borges Simões Nunes da Cruz and I was born July 29th 1983 at a small city named Entroncamento in Portugal.

For those wondering "what the hell does his nick means?", there's the explanation:

[11:37] • [&Foolio] by itself pronounced namida
[11:37] • [+Jared] Interesting
[11:37] • [+Ketsurui] thanks for the explanation Foolio

My hobbies are watching anime and reading manga, I also write reviews of most of the anime I see.

I may sometimes seem extremely arrogant while talking on forums, do not mind it, this is the way I usually speak, if by any chance I say something inappropriate, please let me know.

I work in the fansub business for around 2 years and a half and own two fansubs, one of them subbing in english.

I'm the current timer of FTP-A and Xvid Encoder, you shall see me around posting rants about the releases.

I guess that's the gist of it, take care people.

Portugal? Isn't that one of the wonderful ingredients in Brazilian women?

Anyways, I was too drunk to read the whole intro, so howdy.

Hi
I was wondering when you'd finally introduce yourself
Welcome, welcome
So...what are your fav. anime/manga and where did you learn Japanese?

btw...there are no mortals here...

[Ketsurui]

I don't really have a favorite anime/manga, but I can still say some names of animes and mangas I find impressive/good.

Anime:

Elfen Lied (due to the awesome plot)
One Piece (this anime's epic, nuff said)
Slayers (comedy, magic, cute girls)
Urusei Yatsura (Rumiko owned all)

Manga:

Gacha Gacha (yep, I lobe trans gendering stuff)
Kashimashi ~Girl Meets Gil~ (200 times better than the anime)
Tettragrammaton Labyrith (immortal lolis with big weapons)
Saigo no Seifuku (yuri :x)

Then the part "where did you learn Japanese", well... I didn't really learn it, I can only distinguish some stuff, I can't TL Japanese whatsoever, my mentor is anime :p

And good... no mortals... I can make people suffer w/o killing them then :p

[brokenhands]

Bloody Tears? That's the name of the main theme from Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest. I like the old version and the amped up 16-bit version from Castlevania 4.

[Vladimir]

Yeah, I thought you'd understand Japanese since you're a timer.
Sometimes timers speak Japanese as well, so they know when a sentence is ending and when it is not.

[Ketsurui]

I pretty much know when the sentences start and end, because Japanese speech pattern's very limited, so it's pretty easy to time.

I always find timing very difficult, since you need a looooooooot of patience.

RESPECT!

[brokenhands]

I still can't grasp "wa", or when to use "ne", "ka", or "ga" at the end of most Japanese sentences. Just know that the last two usually mean a question.

[Ketsurui]

It's actually the tone of how they end their sentences, there's a trick :p
