The icon is the clueless jerk protagonist in the manga Hot Gimmick. He is quite pretty. ^_~
You know what's fucked up? I really think this is a product of a) closed-mindedness and b) the presentism that plagues the anime/manga fandom in this country.
Word. Being at an anime con always brings this home. It's all about what's popular RIGHT NOW. *sigh*
Though I'm much more about Goemon when it comes to Lupin. I want to BE Lupin when I grow up, but I want to shag Goemon. XD How wrong is that?
LOL! Excellent. Actually, I vacillate between the two because I have a thing for stoic, heroic men. Hee, hee! But they don't tend to be as much fun as pervy, naughty boys.
Oh, is that what they're calling Zantetsuken is on Fire? I have that raw.
Yes. I watched it and it didn't quite have the snap and sparkle of some of the other Lupin I have seen. Nothing like Goemon holding Jigen in a close embrace a la Fujiko's Unlucky Days.
XD
Damn right. Hell, even BAD Lupin is a good time. I watch Manhattan Joke and laugh as I cringe.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Harimao's Treasure has been panned by various reviewers, but it remains one of my favorite Lupin movies.
LOVE. YOUR. ICON.
