Nah not really my fave. I'm into "Meitantei Conan" or "Case Closed". And I like LoZ even more, but technically it isn't an anime it is Japanese made video game. But I will admit Kenshin is quite the looker! ME-OW! Lol! Laughing

[b]...s**t......[/b]
One thing that I must condone about fangirls is that they are serious people; not to be messed with. Who are fangirls? They are people who take their fan thingie way too seriously. You can find them at Fanforum.com and miscellaneous fansites, and they are usually female. (It's a given, but nowadays you can't be so f**king sure.) There's a saying that most fangirls are between 10 to 25 years of age, but I won't be surprised if fangirls can come in all ages. It's hard to define the meaning of the term "fangirl", but they can be spotted coming a mile away because they are all like sheep and be counted on to act like one.

Here's top ways you can detect a fangirl from her posts.

[b]She doesn't like talking about "negativity" [/b]
See, she believes that her idol will be reading these posts of everybody's, and she knows said idol will be horrified, just horrified, to discover nasty things spoken on an insignificant board idols probably have no idea exist. She will hush everyone who even dares say anything remotely negative. Most tell-tale is how she will pop up in a thread, say "Why Roswell is going downhill?" and start raising a fuss. "What if my darling Jason Behr is reading? Won't he be SHOCKED? SHOCKED, I tell you!"

And a fangirl always apologizes before saying anything remotely different from the flock. Example? "I apologize if I offend anyone because I know I am just a fan and I hope the fangirl moderators won't ban me but I think this is something I must say even if it kills me because you know I am still a Dreamer to the day I die - MaxNLiz4eva!!! Down with Tess that bitch! LizNMax4eva!!! - but I just want to say this, but before I do, I hope you people will forgive me because I know I am a stupid piece of smelly stuff, and I am sorry to have to say this, but, don't you think Liz's mascara is a bit on the heavy side?"

[b]Fangirl expects her idols to conform to her values [/b]
Nothing reveals a fangirl's true colors better than to tell her that her idol smokes. "Smoking is bad! Cancer! I will love him foreva but I will be soooo disappointed if he smokes *insert some jumping sad face smilie here*!"

Incidentally, fangirls' values are strictly and embarrassingly WASPy - they can't stand beards, mustaches, smoking or drinking habits, and they cannot grasp the notion of alternative sexualities. Their idols [i]must[/i] be straight, non-smoking, non-drinking, non-swearing boring forkbreads. Tell them otherwise and they will go into denial.

A dead-on fangirl always reply to negative news of her idol in print with a "Interviews and quotes are always misquoted by the jealous press, and I won't believe until Mariah Carey herself comes out and admits that she is a drugged-up, alcoholic, hysterical has-been who needs depression treatment!"

Needless to say, they really expect their idol to come clean to them.

[b]Fangirl can't live without smilies [/b] (Here's lookin' at you Katie...)
One of the consequence of living in the flock is that you don't even dare to offend anyone. So every sentence has to end with a jumping smiling pink thing. After fangirls have no sense of humor - you have to tell them that you are joking by putting a dumb smilie at the end of every sentence.

Whoever doesn't do that gets a reprimand icon from other fangirls. Fangirls MUST be shown how they must feel. It's the way of the sheep. They wouldn't understand irony or sarcasm if they bite them in the butt.

[b]Fangirl loves big, big signature threads [/b]
As most fangirl forums are powered by Infopop that allows large attachments to one's signatures, fangirls tend to put at least two big photos or screencaps, a long list of said idol's quotes, and their fansite banner. Sometimes there are threads where the signatures combined are longer than the actual discussions. Combine smilie overkill with signature overdose, and fangirl forums may just cause your 23K modem to explode to flames.

[b]Fangirl loves the word jealous [/b]
Any critic of their idol is jealous. Or jealus, jealouse, jelus, jeallous, jeallouse... So jealous are the critics because the fangirls' idol are successful, or good-looking, or has a nice haircut. Critics are just dying inside that this idol has starred in fifteen straight-to-video movies, fourteen of which consists of said idol running bare-breasted in grassy molls for ten minutes until she is dismembered by a badly made-up freak with a chainsaw.

Typical responses to intelligent debate by fangirls include "I'd like to see you record an album and be as big as Westlife!", "I'd like to see you make a TV series and be as big as Chris Carter!" In short, fangirls believe that just because you don't sleep your way to the top, buy yourself a recording gig, or aren't talentless teenyboppers who can only use your pretty faces and aerobicized bodies for your fifteen minutes of fame (I'm looking at you, Carson Daly), you must be jealous of these idols' great talents.

Fangirls come in packs, so expect multiple flames when you stump them with your wit and quips and they can't find a good comeback.

[b]Fangirl starts the same threads in every forum [/b]
A good example is the ubiquitous "*Idol's name* Appreciation Thread" which can span into multiple parters. These threads are nothing more than people leaching the bandwidths of unsuspecting websites by posting pictures of their favorite idol in question. I do confess I enjoy these threads, especially the shirtless David Boreanaz picture threads in the Fanforum, but there is nothing creepier than a bunch of obviously horny fangirls trying to suppress their libido to be "nice" and talking about that naked hunk's, er, talent instead.

[b]Fangirl thinks of her idols as exclusively hers [/b] (Pure fact folks, pure...)
By this, I mean they refuse, absolutely refuse to discuss their idol's private life. Commendable act? Nah. See, they just don't want to hear about their idol's love life. How else would you explain a simple question like "Say, does Jason Behr smoke?" (everybody knows he does) getting a flock of vultures looking uncannily like fangirls descending on you to screech that Personal Discussions Of Idols Are Not Allowed. They're rather believe that their idol is just there, waiting for their pure, asexual fangirl love (at least they are too hypocritical to admit that they want to shag their idol) rather than to enjoy the sleazy, good skank vibes of groupies.

In this way, fangirls also pride themselves as morally superior to any one of their idol's girlfriends, which by default must be skanks because everyone knows their idol is waiting for them - fangirls - to love! Or if these fangirls will never have their idols, anyone who does must be skanks. Unless, of course, these girlfriends are homely, not-blonde, and have a virginal look to them (an image most fangirl believe themselves take after), by then these fangirls will gush and coo over them. It's always amusing that these fangirls either gush at the same time or they rip apart their idols' girlfriends of the month - no inbetween. As usual, the lone dissenter or two will be silenced with a lot of finger-wagging smilies.

But...

[b]Fangirls are good for one thing [/b]
Get your mind out of the gutter. Besides, there's no way these fangirls will give out to you. They are good for one thing, however - they will know anything you want to know about their idol. They make a great source for pictures for that screensaver you are making. If anyone has that rare picture of Hugh Jackman naked, the fangirls will be your best hope. (By the way, I asked - no luck there.) Fangirl packs will also sniff out the very celebrity him or herself, and while conversations will then plunge into the abysmal (Fangirl #1: LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!, Idol: Thanks!, Fangirl #2: I LOVE YOU!!!, Idol: Thanks!, etc), you can always hop on and bask in the presence of a star. But don't expect to ask him about his alcoholic problem or those embarassing white powder stains rumored to be found on his black Porsche seat, the fangirls will kick you off and ban you faster than you can say "Smack my bottom, baby!"

See, who says I hate fangirls? They do serve a purpose in life. Now excuse me, they are posting a new batch of photos in the "Jeniffer Lopez Appreciation Thread Part 6". Oops, duty calls!

Fangirls... hate them or be them, I'll still cut their f**king heads off. One thing I must mention before I go however, is that fangirls will never be taken seriously because of their "anti-negitivity force" and their monotonous screen names like "kenshinswife," "hieislover," "inuyasha4ever." etc. Oh, and as for mangadude123, "STOP SPAMMING THE f**king THREADS ASSHOLE." Meh, it had to be done.

The end.

Hey! I like Kenshin, it's my third favorite, after the two most talked about animes on the anime and manga forums Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha. I think Rurouni Kenshin is has a great story, but they haven't finished it on Cartoon Network. . . . .

I'm not a rabid fangirl, I'm not a rabid fangirl, (taking to myself and anyone who wants to hear) I'm not a rabid . . .

1- stop talking as if you've been here forever and are popular. you're not. n00b.

2- stop writing in internet slang. i can't tell what the f**k you're trying to say.

3- don't post overly large Sailor Moon pics in a topic about Rurouni Kenshin

4- stop arguing with people. it's not a smart idea. if you must, go argue with someone your status, like mangadude123 or chibi-cinamoroll.

Lmfao. Wow, this was fun going back in time. Anyone remember Silver the great n00b hunter?

Anyway, I'll be turning this into an actual topic just to revive it again...

I just started reading the manga, and it's pretty good. It's not the best and the way Kenshin talks reminds me all too much of one of the tards here. "This one likes..." blah blah blah. I can also see where that trend of people saying "Oro?" everywhere came from.

The actual storyline is pretty good. I like the vague hints at romance attempts and the battles aren't too bad at all. I've definitely become an old-japanese-sword-fighting manga whore. :ph34r:

Your thoughts and opinions on Rurouni Kenshin? It's definitely not the best, but it's pretty good.
