I've had this account for quite some time. 01/09/2006. I would have thought it would be longer since I started Shaman King in 2003. Wait.. So I must have been fifteen when I made this. Then I guess that sounds about right. Wait.. Fifteen? He was fifteen at the time. eek
But anywho, I am constantly selling my items and buying them back. Over and over again..
It's strange. You know? I love Horohoro. He is my favorite anime character of all time. But I think it's like.. having an account based on ME. We're a lot alike! So it's kind of like looking into a mirror. I guess what I am trying to say is... I usually make accounts online that are for cosplays. So when I cosplay as Horohoro, it doesn't feel like a cosplay since we're so much alike. Well, except he gets angry often--Unlike me. Although, I know I'm not a freaking piece of paper, it feels like I am him in a way. So I suppose it isn't as exciting. Maybe..
The best part of cosplaying Horohoro is that I get to meet all of these Shaman King fans! It's very rare to find Shaman King cosplayers around. There use to be so many around the time that I joined. Most of them quit their account. And I guess that, too, takes the fun out of it. But I always find myself coming back. Because no matter how many items on Gaia I want to buy.. In the end, Horo is more important to me. heart And since I don't have his cosplay offline, it's satisfying to at least be able to cosplay as him online.
I want to buy a snowboard and draw his symbols on there. A lot of people tell me that I can just make one. It would be cheaper, yes. But at the same time, I've wanted a snowboard for so long. And if I can cosplay Horohoro and snowboard for real.. it would mean a lot to me!
I've finished Shaman King three times, I think. Read the full manga twice. Saw the anime once. But ever since Christmas, I got the complete set of the Shaman King anime. I can't say that I am fully pleased with it. The translations are WAY off! They can't even spell Shaman King right. But if I am able to watch Shaman King again, that's good enough for me. So yes. I have been re-watching Shaman King. I'm almost finished with it, again. And looking back on these episodes with Horohoro, the things that he says.. it makes me think about what happened later in Kang Zeng Bang. It's like a deeper connection. You realize things that seemed so simple, but now it seems depressing. As if the past followed him all this time. And I'm sure it did! Whenever I see scenes like that, I end up crying. His story was good, but depressing.
I have completed the Shaman King manga. Now I am waiting to see if Kang Zeng Bang comes to America. Ah.. But I don't think so. People tend to be lazy. I can buy the Japanese books, but I won't be able to read them. Oh well. Keep your fingers crossed!
