sparklespiff Oh, I love "Les Miserables"-- at least the musical version! I've never read the book. I want to in the future, though. Did you end up reading it at all?

sparklespiff Oh, I remember reading that for high school too! I think I might have been a sophomore, though-- I don't know, it was a few years ago! I don't think I liked it that much; I think I had difficulty connecting to the time. What did you like most about it?

Whose Shikai/Bankai do you find cool? In my case, Byakuya's Shikai is badass.. ^-^ As for Bankai, I haven't seen it in the anime yet but Ikkaku's Bankai is cool. (Ikkaku is the bald guy Ichigo fought.) How about you?

sparklespiff Oh, I love Soi Fon too. Her backstory with Yoruichi is fantastic, and a little bit heartbreaking-- to know that a captain that tough, that controlled-seeming, can have feelings like that? It's so moving. Not to mention she just plain looks cool.

sparklespiff Fandom is where the fangirls live. There is generally a lot of squealing over things, and a bit of analysis and arguably a lot of insanity. But we do it out of love, really. Love.

I visited best buy today and tried out a demo of guitar hero 2. It gets a little getting used to playing it. The demo has a good variety of songs but I'm getting thoughts of buying it since I might just get bored playing it just...

sparklespiff Oh, man, I love guitar hero 2. Especially if you have a friend to play with and buy two guitars-- then you can play cooperative, where one person plays guitar and the other bass (or rhythm guitar for songs that don't use a bass). It's pretty awesome....

sparklespiff I really enjoy Soi Fon's Shikai. We haven't even seen her Bankai yet, but her Shikai is deadly enough as it is! It's so small, but so lethal. Plus it leaves all those pretty butterflies. Should she ever decide to give up being a shinigami, she could always...

I know when I go to a sushi restaurant, I'm always looking to try something new. But, for fear of the unknown, I always wind up getting the same thing, or variations of the same thing every time. I love spicy tuna rolls, shrimp...

sparklespiff Have you ever tried a sweet potato roll? They've got tempura-fried pieces of sweet potato inside the sushi. I really enjoy them!

sparklespiff Last week I tried sea urchin sushi for the first time-- it was definitely an experience! It was very, very soft and had a very light taste. I'm not sure if I'd eat it again, but it's something I'd recommend doing because it was interesting and the sort of...

sparklespiff Oh, I definitely agree. Not that I don't love Yamabuki and Rokkaku-- Yamabuki for Akutsu and Dan and Sengoku, I'll admit, and Rokkaku for their pure love of tennis, I'd have to say of the rival schools, Fudomine, because Tachibana--I'm not sure if everyone is...
