Never had an anime hangover before - well, I did, but no hallucinations. I had dreams though. I remember dreaming about being in a match with Ryoma Echizen, after I watched 8 episodes (yes, just 8. I can only handle 8 episodes in a row Anime hyper) of Prince of Tennis.l

Oh, and speaking of missing characters, where is Paola? She shouldn't have disappeared already, it's only 7am.

I'm not going to have to buy the side novel Anime News Nina S[1] to find out what happened to Paola and Myoopi, am I? I just don't have the money right now. I'm already getting the Limited Edition Anime News Nina Season 2 Boxset with the bonus soundtrack[2]. And there's that Anime News Nina hyper-realistic[3] mousepad I've been hankering after. But it's not like I'm going to sell all my old merchandise[4]; true fans don't sell off their prized collections no matter what[5].

Oh, what will I do[6]?



[1]
RRP: ¥1,999, found in all good bookstores everywhere.

[2]
Personally signed by one of the five Official Robin Sevakis Lookalikes.

[3]
Not the Ecchi version, the Hentai version with extra......uh......padding.

[4]
Pens, pencil sharpeners (shaped like chibi-Myoopis), keychains, t-shirts, caps, 1/20 scale figurines, coffee mugs; you name it, I've probably got two of them.

[5]
Not before they've quintupled in price, at any rate.

[6]
Get a(nother) loan from mommy and daddy and buy them all. Probably.

Great comic. I've a few anime hangovers myself after all nite anime parties. I remember one time I woke up after dreaming I was going on a date with Chachamaru from Negima. I actually woke up and started getting ready before my brain turned back on

"The soap bars! They are VOTOMS!"

Best quote ever.

Myoopi and Paola, being the smarter of the set, did NOT get up at 7 am, which is why we don't see them. Very Happy

I remember watching Votoms on IC years ago, back-to-back with Tylor- the only two shows I can remember seeing on TV with subtitles... *waxes nostalgic for a minute*

Never attempted an all-nighter before, but with my poor vision, I just need to take off the glasses to see weird things. Back in high school, I stayed at a friend's house... in the early morning, when there's just enough light to see, but not enough to get color, I looked at poster on the wall sans glasses and swore it was Goku riding a motorcycle. When I woke again a couple hours later, the brighter light revealed coloration and I realized it was a Sailor Moon poster. Embarassed Laughing

Man that beats the results of my "All Zombies, All Day" marathon. Those sleep deprivation induced visions weren't nearly as fun as a Mokona.

Ah, too true.
Happened to me time and time again. Most memorable anime hangover was when I watched every episode of Ranma 1/2 straight through. Afterwards I thought I was gonna turn into a girl if I took a shower... it was quite the marathon. Anime hyper

Nonense, only weakling can get sick binging on anime. When I really try, I can get a good 20 episodes a day in, assuming it's a weekend or during vacation. Otherwise it'll be around 10.

That's not a marathon. A true marathon is at least 50 episodes. YES: over 16 hours of anime. THAT is a marathon
