Yeah, I figured from reading Piercing that Asami could only be captured so much
in a film, and that the book probably went much further into detail with her. I
might have to read the book, despite how disturbing it will invariably be...
Quote by kashikosaPersonally I found it
very disturbing (the movie) but that happens to me a lot when I read Murakami
Ryu's works... they always somehow involve cruelty and hopelessness in their
pure forms...
It was very disturbing.....the main theme I see in Murakami's novels is
loneliness, fear of abandonment, and dependency.
Quote by shoujoboyYou could always
contribute something instead of using the forums for such a reason as getting
credits. I'm thinking its your type who only spam forums for credits that ruin
this damn site in the first place.
Hey, that's not fair either. To blatantly label me a 'type'? If your mad that
people post on the forums to get credits, complain to the site creators -
they're the ones that made it that way, and I'm sure it was for a reason. I'm
actually, or was, enjoying these forums, and yes I initially came because I
needed credits. But I'm not just going to spam up the boards and reply
mindlessly to any thread that I could care less about. Don't be so quick to
judge, jeez...
Actually, you can free-base heroin, so she wouldn't necessarily be injecting
from the start. But anyways, if she actually is telling the truth, she needs to
break up with her boyfriend and seek professional help. At this point the only
thing within your power to help her would be alerting her parents. I know it's
late to post anything, but I hope her situation gets better, and I hope that she
wants it to get better.
Quote by IronSerpentFor one, your
name looks like that of a spam-bot ("skdjfksjflksd? Probably more porn
bots"), as well, a lot of the people here are still in their teens (or
younger...) and in the Americas (both North and South) and Europe. Look at the
time you are posting your threads and comments.
If you want a lot of people taking a look at what you have to say, try to get in
your threads early-morning (in the Americas) on Friday (mid-afternoon for
Europe) to catch the most eyeballs, considering Europeans will be getting home
from school before long, getting responses from them, which will keep the thread
going until the Americans (which include everybody from Canada to Brazil) get
home from school.
Also, your responses and comments tend to be... rather short. There isn't much
to respond to with one-word comments or when you respond to month-old
threads.
No no...now that you have brought up my name, I am going to rant. Ok, so i spent
half an hour filling out the registration form and EVERY TIME it said "that
name is taken" or whatever and it KEPT HAPPENING OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AGAIN and I do NOT believe that all the names I tried were taken but anyways i
typed in random crap out of frustration and OF COURSE it has to work THEN and so
now I am stuck with it because I can't re-use my email
And I've responded to old threads because I just needed to get credits so I can
get images. I've got a day until I have to go back to a boarding school with no
internet, and I have a new computer with no pictures. I need pictures to take
back with me TT~TT
On the Soubi(whom I love) one- just get more detail in the line art, if
possible. it would also be cool to see it as a white on dark salmony red colour.
First off, I would improve quality, and tie in the navy blue by replacing the
black in the background with a dark navy blue, maybe with a slight pattern of
it's own(space-themed, as suggested above is my vote), so long as it remains
subtle. But I really like the idea, it's really really cute. I'd really like to
get an improved version of it <3

Yes =_=
And unfortunately, I didn't know when to quit either. When you have two people,
arguing with eachother, who don't know when to quit...it's a very long, bad,
situation...
Love, most definitely. And even if it doesn't work out, it's still important to
be tolerant and try to understand and respect other people's beliefs, so it's
good practice in that ^_^
A lot of times loneliness is what someone is used to, so that makes it
comfortable. Loneliness is much less scary than worrying about being abandoned,
or having an opportunity to be left alone by someone. It's easier to choose
loneliness than to have it put upon you by someone else, because that hurts even
more.

Quote by xiaodickfrom my point of view,
its pretty much u to you whether you want to feel lonely or not... a person
being alone doesn't necessarily mean that the person would feel lonely... and a
person who is surrounded by people (e.g. classmates) would not necessarily mean
he/she would not feel lonely...
unless... the "lonely people" you are talking about refers to people
who choses to be alone or in other terms, loners...
like many others had posted...
it could be their personality, they just don't like socialising..
it could be that the people around them are not their type, as in they have no
interest in the people around them..
it could also be that humans disgust them..
That's also true. And it's difficult to form bond with people. For me it's very
rare I can find someone that naturally "gets" me and I choose not to
put as much effort into relationships with people that don't understand me very
easily, which pushes them away.

Heh, it's true. I want to read the book Audition...I'm not sure which will be more disturbing though, the book or the movie?
It was very disturbing.....the main theme I see in Murakami's novels is loneliness, fear of abandonment, and dependency.
It's very.....yeah o_o....a lot of symbolism.....
It's based on the novel by Ryu Murakami...
*hopes someone knows what she's talking about*

Oh my god, this is fantastic
I can't seem to find any good ones..

I agree that if you just re-touched it it would be great. Just take out the black lines at the top or bottoms of the screencaptures and stuff.

I like it. It goes with any mood. If I'm in a good mood, I like it. If I'm in a bad mood, I like it. It adds to any mood in a desirable way.
Stop reading those books =_=....
It depends on what mood I'm in.
I like negative when it means intelligently sarcastic and cynical.
It's situational.
