Kevin is *so* rude, taking up the couch himself instead of offering it to one of the girls like a gentleman. Anime hyper

I really liked the soft, watercolory art style this week. It was just perfect for the Ghibli theme! Awesome job!

I noticed that too. I put it down to neither of the girls trusting him to "behave".

It sucks being a guy, being stereotyped and all. But then, since Kevin already has a track record of being a bit of a pervert (Hentai panel, anyone?), I suppose their caution is warranted.

Let me guess: Robin is never coming back, and this is all an attempt to pass the torch to Sara by stealth?

This was my last week, I swear! ^^; Nina will be safely back in Robin's hands next week, hopefully avoiding therapy despite all the subliminal excursion I've put her through. ;p

Thanks for all the kind words everyone; you've all been totally awesome!

Either Nina needs to do less sleeping or she needs to be tied down when she's sleeping. And yes, I know the latter will probably be joked about by some of you Anime hyper

The kitten I adopted arrived today and this comic kind of worries me since she likes to cuddle and sleep on me and I'm afraid I might roll over and pull a Nina.

My kitty hates me because of that, but he comes back every night.

That's why I love him.

Nice Totoro Tribute! I'm sure Miyazaki would be pleased.

Yep. For better or for worse Sara has managed to cover almost the entire scope of publicly-accepted anime in but a few short frames.

The fact that she's squishing the poop out of him (...is it a him?) just makes me happy.

Having slept over at a number of places I’d say taking the couch was heroic. Give me the floor any day for the sake of my back. When sleeping over bring a sleeping bag, a pad and don’t forget your pillow.

And oh yes, awesome comic!

I've never done a sleepover for anime but I sure would like to do one.


I've done quite a few (all times with my friends: 3 guys and 1 girl plus me, and it's never been awkward....yet Wink ), IIRC they were:

-Evangelion nights (we made it up to episode 20 or so on Friday night, then came back Saturday night and finished the show/movie)
-Noein: To Your Other Self night (none of us had seen it yet, and we had a blast watching it all together brand new)
-FLCL/Miyazaki night
-Outlaw Star night

I think that was about it (we've been hanging out for two years, but usually we'll stick with playing video games when spending the night). They're definitely fun, especially if you bring food and take breaks when needed, but be sure to be well-rested beforehand (otherwise you often won't make it, as we've learned during Wii fests). Also, we start at about 6 PM, since it's the only way we'll finish if we're watching a whole series.

We've jokingly said we're going to have a full-marathon Case Closed sleepover. Yeah, I'd be impressed if someone could pull that off. Laughing
