Thank you so much! Actually, I love your userpage! XD I'm a fan of blue tones, and the fractals in the background give it nice lighting. I've played all three Fatal Frame games for the Playstation 2, and I just finished game 3 for the first time. And I liked it so much I wanted to make myself a userpage with it :D I'm thinking about reviewing all three when I'm not so busy with school. Also, thank you for the great comments and favorites on my two wallpapers. I appreciate the kind words ^_^ Take care and I'll see you around!

OMG a 5weeks late reply O_O Aha sorry, I've been really DEAD here :sweat:

Aww thanks, we are all lovers of blue XD Blue is such a serene colour!

Wow, you finished ALL 3 Fatal Frames? AMAZING! I didn't get to buy the 1st fatal frame, but I've finished Crimson Butterfly ^^ Now I'm trying to finished The Tormented as well. Its sooooo long! 13 hours O_O I'm currently stuck at Hour 8 >.< Which is your fave Fatal Frame btw? I like Crimson Butterfly the most! The tragic and beautiful storyline is really.....brilliant. Itsuki <3 XD The concept for FF3 is kinda weird to me actually, its like, sleep, dream, wake up, sleep, dream, wake up. ^_^'

I reviewed Crimson Butterfly ^^ I wonder when will they get a Fatal Frame III category up.

ANd you're welcome for the faves, your YUUKO walls are AMAZING!

Five weeks? Has it really been that long? I feel like I've been in the Twilight Zone lately ^_^'

Actually, as of a few weeks ago I've finished all three games atleast twice (I play them so my cousin can watch since she has a hard time with scary games, and then I can see them on her huge tv XD). The third game is quite long and confusing the first time through (I got stuck in chapter eight as well ^_^' ), but I think it's totally worth it. I'm not going to spoil anything but I do have a huge tip: make sure you have a stone mirror saved for the final boss! I managed to do it without one, but it can be quite hard if you don't have one x_x

My favorite? That's tough, because I love them all for different reasons... I like the first game because it felt the creepiest to me while playing it and was the most challenging for me, Crimson Butterfly was easier but a lot of fun to replay. Game 3 felt easier than 1 but harder than 2, and even though it's a weird set-up I felt like bringing the situation's focus out of the haunted mansion and into Rei's house made it a little creepier in a sense (for me, atleast). Once you get past chapter 8 I thought the storyline starts to fall into place better, but I won't say anymore since you haven't finished it. But as you can see, I have a hard time deciding on my favorite ^_^' Itsuki is a cutie... But I also like Kei <3

I don't think they're going to divide the section up by the individual games, unfortunately... I kind of wish they would, or take away the "II" from the title of the section o_0 I was just planning on placing all three games into one review so I could compare them (carefully though, without spoiling anything).

Man, I can really blab about scary games ^_^' Anyways, thank you for the compliment! I try hard to do justice for Yuuko :) Take care and I'll see you around!

P.s. - Have you ever tried the game Kuon?

Time flies and we just don't realize it XD

My bunch of cousins came over today, and with a whole bunch of them accompanying me to play Fatal Frame III, I felt pretty bold and voila, I finished 4 Hours today. Gonna reach Hour 12 soon :) Miku died T_T After bringing back the heroine from Fatal Frame I, how can they kill her here in the 3rd? 'Tis so sad. But there were choices, no? I chose to let her pursue Mafuyu cause I wanna let her reunite with dear brother that she has missed so much. Did you choose the same as me? Or the alternate choice - to go back? Cause I wanna know what'll happen if she didn't go after Mafuyu XD Ack, I dread fighting Reika. She's like a duplicate of Kirie. I read of Kirie's story on Wiki, it was sad and touching indeed, how can they just kill her lover? =( I think I like Kaname although I haven't seen him officially. XD

Ahhh I must hunt for Fatal Frame I when I go the buy my games. It was a long time ago right? Back in 2001, I hope they still sell old PS2 games *prays* I replayed Crimson Butterfly 3 times XD Only succeeding to finish it the 2nd time. As for the 1st time, it was pretty infuriating. I played till Chapter 8. Was like, 1 chapter away from the ending but then on one fine day, the memory data just disappeared like that O_O With no apparent reason. So I had to replay FF2, AGAIN. I used to have nightmares after playing fatal frame XD But now I'm completely addicted to it <3 Fatal Frame 3 is REALLY long -_- With All God's Village and Himuro Mansion mashed into the Manor of Sleep....... HUGE :o

Oooh Kei, the poor guy. I heard that he dies? He always gets molested by female ghosts XD Espcially Kyouka...... Kyouka is annoying. Her face is scary too! I call her Lipstick girl lol. But Kyouya had a tragic past too no doubt T_T Itsuki's just too good to die, waaaahh OX

Yeah they should definitely take away the 'II' in the category name because I see Fatal Frame III images inside the gallery too O_O I know one moderator, perhaps I can tell this problem to her :D

I blab on scary games just as much as you do XD

Kuon? Hmm nope never heard of it. In fact, the only scary game I've played is Fatal Frame ^_^' Is Kuon nice btw? ^^

Hi there.
I just have one question. What's name of your layout? I like it very much and I would like to use it [by Minitokyo Options => choose skin]
Thanks in advance.

Actually, I never filled out that information ^_^' I wasn't going to even set it up for the Minitokyo Browser until I was finished using it for my userpage. I wanted time to tweek it (like change my username up top to a "made by-" signature that is less obtrusive, but I can let you know when I get it set up if you want. Take care!

I'll be very grateful if you can. ^^
Take care and Merry Christmas ;)!

Quote by ArtificialRaindropThis has to be the best Cain wallpaper I have ever seen! I've been wanting to make another wallpaper from this series for a while, but now I'm kind of intimidated (it's gorgeous!) ^_^' The detail from your painting looks fantastic, and it looks like an official piece of art. I love it!

Sorry about the late reply - life's been getting away from me a bit recently... ^_^'

*Goes into lecture mode* Don't you dare be intimidated, the more Cain walls there are the better.
In all seriousness I hope you do make another one, I'd love to see it. XD [Besides, you're too good a waller to be intimidated by one of my walls ^_^]

Anyway, thanks so much for the kind comments! :D

oh did I miss your wall o_0
Im so sorry can you give the link so that I'll add it to the list thou its a little bit late & it wont be fair enough for you :sweat:
please forgive me because as you know I was gone for long & things got messed up with me ^_^' :sweat:

I was actually teasing, so don't worry about :D Very little of it was actually vectored which is why I was picking on it not being there. Well, this is the Link, but I don't think it's even worth posting for the voting. As far as being fair, I seriously doubt that I would have gotten any votes because there are so many awesome vectors this time around, and they are far more elaborate than mine ^_^' but like I said, don't worry about it! Take care and I'll talk to you later!

oh really...anyway I think it is a good work & I will add it to the list :)
thou its a little bit late ^_^'

Quote by ArtificialRaindropI think I accidentally removed you from my watchlist ^_^' I added you again, so don't be surprised if you get a notification about it!

Quote by Fairywater Wah! I am touched by your comment on my review...(it was my first)...and it is true that I only watched or read a few of Clamp's creations, I'm just familiar with Clamp's other creations, but I really appreciated your comment on the review ^^ Also, I was doing a review on the Japanese voicing, and I have to say, the English voicing wasn't the best dub in my opinion, but Funimation tries. You are pretty right in how Tsubasa sort of drags on scenes, but I feel that it's more of a dramatic thing, because in other animes, like Bleach, the scene is like, just frozen, and Tsubasa would actually zoom in with a background theme too (almost covers it up for it). I could go on with Tsubasa but I'll just be quiet, and anyways, every fan has their opinion on Tsubasa; we have differences in opinions. But I just wanted to say, I really liked your opinion, it's the first time I actually recieved pretty helpful constructive critism.

By the way, I think you should do a review, you'd be a great help to people who try and find if an anime is good!

Your first review? That's pretty awesome. There are certain people here who don't do even a third of that well and have written several ^_^' I do agree with you, everyone has different opinions, which is part of why I try very hard to be polite and respectful when responding to them (though I'm ashamed to say that failed miserably when I read az0k's Tsubasa review... :sweat: I don't know if you saw our argument in that thread, but I was getting so upset I was having trouble making myself clear... but we finally called it a draw through pm). I also agree with you that the dubbing isn't the best one I've ever heard, I just like to note it's not the worst (to me, atleast) either. I've heard some pretty bad voices in all sorts of languages ^_^' I do see your point with the scenes being more dramatic by lengthening them, though. I never really thought about it like that, so it should give me a better perspective the more I watch it. Sorry, I think I'm talking your ear off now (figuratively, since I'm typing >_> ).

As for reviewing, I'm working on one for a set of 3 games right now. I have to admit I'm kinda scared to submit one too soon, since I just had that huge argument in someone else's. I suppose that's hypocritical of me, but if I finish the one I'm working on I'd still like to wait a little while before I submit it.

Anyways, I'm glad to hear your input! I do like to know if what I'm saying means anything, or if it just comes off as mean ^_^' Also, I'd like to see more reviews from you, if you decide to write more! I noticed you explain your reasoning well, and that's a good thing. Take care and I guess I'll see you around!

Hopefully, I'll maybe submit another review; I'm watching some animes I wanted to watch for a long time though, so I have no clue when I can submit another review. Thanks for replying too :]

Quote by ArtificialRaindropI'm not even sure where to start with this... it looks beautiful! I'm sad that it isn't in wide-screen format, because I'd love to have this on my background. The vectoring is smooth and delicate, and I personally think the snow gives it a nice touch. It's gorgeous ^_^

Thank you so much :) I know a lot of people want widescreen but sometimes I know I won't be able to do it. I'm really glad you like it though!

Hi there :)
how are you sweeti?
well allow me to congratulate you because you are the shining artist of the month of October XD
sorry I couldnt make a card for you :( because Im so busy........sorry -_-
anyway I have missed you alot :)
take care ne ;)

Quote by ArtificialRaindropIf you go to the series's gallery of what you wish to review, on the left-hand side there will be a section that says Options. Underneath there you will find the option to submit a review for that specific series.

Thanks for the advice, but what if you can't find the anime in Minitokyo, and you still want a review of it?

Thank you for your forum comment :)

Quote by ArtificialRaindropI'm sorry to bother you, but I have a question ^_^' I remember that you have a userpage that you made for testing your skins on. Did you have to get special permission to make that extra account for that reason, and if so who should I ask? I've been thinking about doing that so I can make userpages for other people, and doing it that way would keep me from having to constantly mess up my own to work on other people's. But I also remember that we're only allowed one account here on Minitokyo, so I was just wondering.

Take care!


Sorry for the delay, I didn't see this until now! OX

Yeah, I made an account called KatesTestPage. XD I didn't ask anyone..I just made it. O.o I haven't touched it in quite a while (like over a year lol) and when I did I only used it for testing my pages, I didn't comment on forums or anything. No mods ever said anything to me about it. I think the main reason they don't want more than one account is because some people would use them for faving the same walls more than once or faving their own work to get it on top faves or something. I think a test page would be fine. More than likely no one would even notice.

Quote by ArtificialRaindropI agree with those making the distinction between the visual and reading differences, but since that has already been noted further up I won't go deeper into that.

I think you have very valid points about fairy tales, though not in the context for violence. I'm sure there has been someone that did at least once, but honestly how many children do you think grow up to be murders because of the fairytales they read as child? Probably a slight few. I'm not saying that watching violent media or playing violent games will make you a murderer (that's just a scapegoat to place blame on), but I do believe it is desensitizing. Some children aren't mature enough for these games (and neither are some adults for that matter), and a lot comes down to parent responsibility in looking into what they are about to let their children watch or play. Unfortunately parents seem to be getting younger themselves these days and are becoming extremely irresponsible themselves, and I have to say I believe they have a higher influence than games in a child's life. After all, manufacturers don't go door to door smuggling violent games to little kids. There's responsibility that needs to be addressed elsewhere, like the people who ARE letting them get the games.

I admit, I love scary games because I like to be scared. It's a thrill, but I'm still bothered by the gore and violence in the game- as the developers try to make you. I think if you ever hit a point where you aren't even remotely bothered by violence in a movie or game you should put it away. I know that's never going to happen with most people, but desensitizing someone to that kind of violence can't possibly be healthy. Like I said, we may not have murderers everywhere from movies and games, but easily impressionable children do exist and parents should be more involved with seeing to it that their kids don't get carried away with their interests.

hey there, Thanks for your comment..
the violence and gore in some movies and video games can be quite disturbing..

Thank you so much! For the help, and for the compliment :D I have that same resolution, and I like using detailed images for my userpage so I hated having to always see a blank spot on the side >.< Being able to adjust the top makes a HUGE difference. Thank you again, and take care!

Ah, really? I have a template which I use for the 1920x1200 resolution, would you like it? :D

If you really don't mind, that would be wonderful! I normally spend forever on userpages because I have to adjust by trial and error. It would be great to have a template that actually fits my widescreen laptop :D

Here it is :

Quote by ArtificialRaindropI really like how you pulled off the blood (leave it to me to admire the blood ^_^' ) Despite the awkwardness of this particular scene it still turned into a fabulous wallpaper. The strength of the outline really matches the style of the X1999 manga, too. Very nicely done!

Thank you so much - again! XD And I'm glad you 'admire the blood' - it's one of the main reasons I chose to wall this scene. ^_^ A bit of a break from my usual theme of 'pretty' and 'happy' etc

I want to thank you for the welcome and helping me out how to edit my submition! It was very helpful ^__^ I still have a lot to learn around here... I am so unfamiliar but everything looks so nifty *__* especially your page! I love fatal Frame so much. I really wonder how to made everything so nice o__o I hope you don;t mind me befriending you~ ^o^ having a Texan buddy around here will make me feel at ease XD

Hehe your welcome, your works are just amazing <3.

Ah, my userpage? I just extended the size of slice 2 and 5 when I make my userpage to fit my resolution (1920x1200)

Btw, you have a gorgeous userpage :3 I love the blue~

Quote by ArtificialRaindropThis is truly beautiful. I think my favorite part would be the watercolor effect ^_^ The art nouveau shapes were a nice touch to the background as well. This definitely warrants a favorite!

Glad you liked the watercolour effect - it's my fav part, too. ^_^ And it was so fun to do. XD
Anyway, thanks so much for writing such a nice comment, I really appreciate it. :)

And I gotta say, you're userpage is really beautiful!
