I was thinking I'd join in, as "Cherry," but I sometimes doubt my ability to roleplay her well. I may know her like none other, but I still am not sure if I could play her convincingly. Well, Cherry would be a difficult person to role-play properly, although you would do better job then anybody else, I am thinking. At least, you depicted Cherry in your (still unnamed, ne?) SMJ fanfic just perfectly. Same here! I never saw the anime, and I got bored of it after the first book. It just didn't appeal to me. Well, actually, I liked Love Hina quite a lot (though it is not exactly among my favorites), I just never managed to get any Love Hina manga books aside from first (which I received as a present). Unfortunately, manga is very hard to get in my home country, even more so then anime... All I'll say is that there are some pretty high-profile users in this thing, and it may surprise you once their identities are revealed. I'll be sure not to spoil anything, but if you care to try a guess at some point, feel free to send me a message, and I'll tell you if you're right. Well, I don’t have any guesses for now. Oh well, at least I can enjoy the masquerade! And whoever role-plays Minoru does an excellent job, I must add!

SMJ fanfic just perfectly. Hehe, thank you. Yeah, I think she would be a real challenge. Anyway, I don't think it's necessary for her to be in this one. It'd be nice, but, oh well. I dunno, something about Love Hina just nevever interested me. It's strange, because there are many similarities between it and Mahou Sensei Negima. Maybe it had something to do with Luvweaver's story? I know that I had no bias against Keitaro until I read it. Hehe, I'll tell him/her you said that. I'm glad you've taken such an interest in it, though.

Maybe it had something to do with Luvweaver's story? I know that I had no bias against Keitaro until I read it. LOL! But personally, I found Keitaro a very sweet and lovable character, and I don’t really mind seeing him with Cherry in Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” fanfictional story. I know you have a different opinion about this matter, though… ^_^; P.S.Mahou Sensei Negima? Never heard about this anime/manga. I am not even sure how it translates… “Magical Teacher Nagima”??? #nosmileys

Well, as long as I can find time for reading some quality role-playing, count me in! I will, then. ...I wonder if anyone else is actually reading this? Yeah, you know. I dunno, I just don't think he deserves her, you know? It's also called "Magister Negi Magi," and since it's still unlicensed, you can legally download a copy of it at animesuki! (PS Make sure to get the Ayu and Keep version. It's (IMO) the best.)

I will, then. ...I wonder if anyone else is actually reading this? This thread, you mean? Probably nobody… The old Shadow of the Dragon Gaming Forum is pretty much dead nowadays, and people seem to be coming here only to play old online RPGs… Yeah, you know. I dunno, I just don't think he deserves her, you know? Well, if you put it this way… He probably doesn’t. Despite being a very sweet guy who usually tries his best (more for those around him then for himself), Keitaro isn’t such a great guy: he is not very smart (which may have something to do with his being a Ronin, not to mention countless problems get finds himself in), he is not handsome (cute, perhaps, but not more then that), he is not strong, and he has a TERRIBLE luck (especially when it comes to dealing with girls, you know what I mean, ne? ^_~ ). So, he probably doesn’t really deserve Cherry, who is kinda… Perfect. By the question, IMHO, is “Will he be able to make her happy?”, and this remains to be seen, I am thinking. Cherry gave him a chance, shouldn’t we do the same? And besides, they had some kawaii scenes together in Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” fanfictional stories, don’t you think. But just as you, I would actually prefer to see Cherry to be with Otaru in Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” fanfictional story, especially since I found the scene of Cherry and Otaru (unfortunately, the only one, if you don’t count Cherry’s daydreams about Otaru) very sweet. It's also called "Magister Negi Magi," and since it's still unlicensed, you can legally download a copy of it at animesuki! (PS Make sure to get the Ayu and Keep version. It's (IMO) the best.) I checked it out, although I am not sure if I will find time to download 12 episodes (and more may be coming, I am thinking). But nevertheless, thanks for telling me about it, Shinryu-san!

This thread, you mean? Probably nobody… The old Shadow of the Dragon Gaming Forum is pretty much dead nowadays, and people seem to be coming here only to play old online RPGs… Yeah, so it's pretty much just like our emails, then. And then the question becomes "Do I?" Because I have many of the same problems, save for the terrible luck with girls. Let's just say he darn well better. Yeah, Otaru just kinda belongs with her, it seems. (Although, there was a point where he said he didn't want someone who idolized him, and laughed at the fact that there was someone who fantasized about him. (obviously, he didn't know it was Cherry) I dunno, reading that story kinda makes me depressed, these days. I don't know why. But it took me 3 months to finally read the last few chapters of his. (I said why in his thread at BJP) Well, with Bittorrent, you can download them all at once, and leave them going while you're gone. But, ehh. If you do get it, let me know what you think, okay?

Yeah, so it's pretty much just like our emails, then. Yup, kinda. And then the question becomes "Do I?" Because I have many of the same problems, save for the terrible luck with girls. Well, that’s the question each of us must answer for oneself, I am thinking… As about me… I don’t want to sound self-critical, but… I don’t. Of that, I am absolutely certain. I am not such a great guy, and moreover, I can be… ahem… not very nice person from time to time. I try to hold my “dark side” back as much as possible, though, and you won’t see much of it (if you see any of it at all) via Internet. It is there, though, I assure you. ^_~ But then again, I don’t expect to actually meet Cherry, so it doesn’t really matters if I deserve her or no as long as I admire her from a distance. Yeah, Otaru just kinda belongs with her, it seems. (Although, there was a point where he said he didn't want someone who idolized him, and laughed at the fact that there was someone who fantasized about him. (obviously, he didn't know it was Cherry) Well, yes. And it was very sweet and kawaii scene, I must add! And who knows, if Otaru saw Cherry’s daydreaming, he would probably find it rather kawaii (at least, I do!), although he would certainly be embarrassed of it as well. Oh well, I guess Luvweaver-san will never explore this possibility in his “Saber Marionette 90210” fanfictional story… shadowdragon.kelticmoose.com/smilies/SadSmiley.gif[/img]

Well, that makes sense. I'm really not sure, for myself. I try, very hard, to be deserving of them, regardless of whether they will ever be mine or no. It's that kind of thinking, actually, that got me where I am today. I do everything, keeping in my mind, "What would she think of me if I did this?" And I wouldn't be lying to say that I'm a much better person for it. [/img] [/quote] Hehe, yeah, you're probably right. Actually it looks like he's not even bothering with school right now. I may be losing track of things, but they haven't been in school for awhile. But yeah, unless he has any surprise plans to introduce me, (yeah, right ), then I think Otaru would be better for her than Keitaro. So yeah, with Lady Aoi, Sachiko and Echiko back, things are going great at BJP. Hehe, BakaMattSu was spamming Lady Aoi's return thread. (Only one post, but still, administrative spam is unheard of there)

But yeah, unless he has any surprise plans to introduce me, (yeah, right ), then I think Otaru would be better for her than Keitaro. Mmm… I guess I need to check newest chapters of Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” fanfictional story someday… Unfortunately, I had little enough time to spend online lately, and fanfiction wasn’t exactly my priority… shadowdragon.kelticmoose.com/smilies/SadSmiley.gif[/img]So yeah, with Lady Aoi, Sachiko and Echiko back, things are going great at BJP. Hehe, BakaMattSu was spamming Lady Aoi's return thread. (Only one post, but still, administrative spam is unheard of there) I am glad to hear you are having fun in there, Shinryu-san! But I hope you’ll still visit me in the Shadow every now and then…

I think I need to reread the whole thing, to be honest. Of course! Though I spend more time in the new Shadow, I wouldn't leave this place without a DARN good reason.

Tell that to Jedimdo. What's the matter? Are two of you fighting over Cherry again? I'm actually beginning to lose interest in it. I think I need to reread the whole thing, to be honest. Well, can't say that I am losing interest in it, though the story seems to be more focused on Bloodberry and Lorelei now, while I would naturally love to read more about Cherry and how her relations with Keitaro will develop. But alas, Luvweaver-san appears to be more interested in other things… Of course! Though I spend more time in the new Shadow, I wouldn't leave this place without a DARN good reason. Well, I'll try to visit you in the new forum more often then. But truth to tell, I am more attached to the old forum, and the fact that my online campaign is in here ensures that I little time for visiting the new forum…

What's the matter? Are two of you fighting over Cherry again? Well, not exactly, but it would be kind of funny to say it, I guess. Yeah, I know what you mean. It seems as though the story has lost track of itself. Like it's become something totally different from what it was. Plus it seems to have a bit of DBZ syndrome (dunno if I said this before) To be honest, I started off liking the old forum more myself, but since I had to go to the new forum to interact with anyone, well, it kinda speaks for itself.

It seems as though the story has lost track of itself. Like it's become something totally different from what it was. Plus it seems to have a bit of DBZ syndrome (dunno if I said this before) Well, I wouldn’t say that Luwveaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” story has lost track of itself (especially since we were getting all these “conspiracy” hints from the first chapters of the story), it is just… Well, as I said, I would have liked to read more about Cherry and how her relations with Keitaro will develop, but… There was very little about it in the latest chapters (the latest chapters I’ve read, at least). Perhaps in the future chapters… But something tells me that there probably won’t be much about Cherry’s relations with Keitaro in the future chapters as well… I guess, you don’t have much time for your ordinary high school romance when you got caught in the middle of some government consipiracy with EVIL Principal Hess plotting something behind the curtain… By the way, this “DBZ syndrome”… Was ist das? What is it? I don’t think I ever heard you mentioning it before… To be honest, I started off liking the old forum more myself, but since I had to go to the new forum to interact with anyone, well, it kinda speaks for itself. Well, personally, I pretty like some changes Shadowdragon has made (especially more “freedom” and longer posts), but I don’t like some others (multiple skins are kinda incovenient, since some colors are all but invisible on some skins; I also dislike that some sections, like “Advertising” or “Character/NPC Templates” were never created in the new forum). Oh well, either way, my “Oerth and Beyond” online campaign is going to keep me in the old forum most of the time.

Ah, soka… *despite BRO’s words, he doesn’t look like he really “sees”* Ehh, I guess it's not really that funny. And, so you know, we have pretty much stopped fighting over her, just sometimes we tease each other a bit. Heh, the last one, I said, "Quizás Jedimdo más que gustara de "Mango" más que él dice..." (It was in reference to a Tragical Mirth article. This one here Oh, before I forget, the translation, seeing as I posted that on Twilight. "Perhaps Jedimdo likes "Mango" more than he says..." I dunno, it just doesn't seem to be the same story, for some reason. It's so different now, it's weird to read it. That's all. As for the 'DBZ syndrome' Basically, the story has gotten so massively long that it's gotten boring, to be honest. It's gone on for so many chapters, that it's unrealistic to consider reading the whole thing in any relatively small period of time, and, it''s just gotten a bit monotonous to me. (Perhaps it's that Cherry doesn't have as big a part in it anymore. Maybe I just need to re-read it. I dunno. Yeah, there are things I like here, and things I like there, too. Making a perfect forum is near impossible, eh? Can't please everyone... Anyway, the reason I like the new forum is solely that it's more active than the old.

This one here Oh, before I forget, the translation, seeing as I posted that on Twilight. "Perhaps Jedimdo likes "Mango" more than he says..." Huh?! It is not true, I hope, because Mango embodies pretty much everything I HATE in girls, which is kinda logical, since she is Cherry’s opposite. And… Well, I guess it is not a secret that Cherry embodies pretty much everything I LOVE in girls. I dunno, it just doesn't seem to be the same story, for some reason. It's so different now, it's weird to read it. That's all. I understand what you mean to say. Everything seemed rather “normal” in the beginning, but now there are all these government conspiracies, special agents, yakuza, etc… And Principal Hess’ schemes, of course! I couldn’t forget about my favorite evil genius! On a side note, I absolutely loved seeing him in the role of a high school principal when I just started reading Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” story! Mmm… I have to re-read it from the beginning someday… Still, I view all of this as the story’s natural development and don’t really mind it. I would like to see Cherry playing bigger role in all of this, though… As for the 'DBZ syndrome' Basically, the story has gotten so massively long that it's gotten boring, to be honest.

Well, personally, I hate when a good “anime/fanfic/book” whatever ends, so I don’t really mind that Luvweaver-san’s “Saber Marionette 90210” story is quite a big one. Just like you, however, I DO mind the fact that Cherry seem to play smaller and smaller role as the story progresses… Yeah, there are things I like here, and things I like there, too. Making a perfect forum is near impossible, eh? Can't please everyone... Anyway, the reason I like the new forum is solely that it's more active than the old.
