?  From my perspective, he's generally very up-front about the fact that he's probably not going to do any of the things everybody wants him to.

Ah, but the point of my post--dear Gemm--was to note a similarity.  If Piro thinks Love Hina is one of the best mangas of all time, then anyone remotely familiar with Megatokyo will understand what kind of comic it is.

Muwwahaha.  My see how my evil powers turn forum member against forum member?  

Yes, I am back.  Grad school demanded a lot of my time this year, as did several authorial issues.  However, for the summer at least, I shall return.

Check snopes.  They have a whole catagory dealing with Disney urban legends.  The Little Mermaid problem was indeed a real issue, though the artist talks about it on Snopes, explaining his embarassment.  He was hired just to do the cover of the video release, and apperantly wasn't paying much attention to what he was drawing...

Anyway, I'll defend Disney.  Yes, they changed the original stories.  So did Shakespeare.  The finished product may not be very similar to the original, but the product itself isn't half bad.  I watched their movies.  While some of them--admittedly--were unwatchable, those bombs are few.  Most Disney fair is entertaining.  Not ground-breaking, but very little out of Hollywood is.

Piro, of Megatokyo, absolutley adores Love Hina.

I believe there's an old saying that warns against two miltary ideas:

First, never get involved in a land war in Asia.  Second, never get in an argument with Mustard about World War II.  

I'm listening to Meteora, which Sprig kindly loaned to me.

It's too bad to hear about that Evanescence CD.  Most of the reviews have been lukewarm.  It was still number six on the charts this week, though.  All the reviews warn not to expect NuRock, except Bring me to Life.  Maybe I'll have to borrow it from you, Sprig.
