SZS No. 28 Jentaro
Alrighty, last one was deleted.
But lawl, there was only one picture left to be posted anyways, so it's not the end of the world.

And since we're always discussing everything and nothing, we shall start off with what our favorite colors are, then move off into whatever direction it takes us.

My favorite color is all of them, except for Puce. Because it has a funny name.

Oh right, forgot, source is me. Sorry, no website. (I sign the drawings now though).

I love all the characters of the show. In particular, I guess I'd pick the Itoshiki family. And Matoi! She's loveable.

There's this guy who's a regular patron of the 24/7 shop where I work at night and he kinda reminds me of Sensei, personality wise. He's really eccentric and depressive, and apparently I'm the only person willing to relate to him. Some time around last christmas he came in and, on the verge of tears, talked to me about committing suicide. He does stuff like that from time to time, but that one time he seemed like he might actually go through with it. He's also kinda obnoxious and socially awkward but he's a pretty decent guy when he's not being overly creepy. I might even say he's kind of cute. In a despairing sort of way. Ha!

Oh, sorry I've been gone.

Jentaro is just about right. But strictly speaking, first panel's line is Jun.
It's like Jun force Kino to apologize to him.
I don't have spoken vocabulary in English, but I guess it's like...

Panal 1: Jun: ....I'm sorry...
Panel 2: Kino: .....Eh?
Panel 3: Jun: Can't you say "I'm sorry"?
Panel 4: Kino: Hiiiiiiiii

Hmm, it's rarely different... Sorry for worry about trifles!

And, wow, such a interesting acquaintance you have... I assume that you are very kind person.
I can't really say it's "interesting" if I actually know him, but if at least he reminds me of Sensei or Y?z? (from "No Longer Human"), I guess I can't forsake him ...maybe. Haha.

And I really hope he won't try suicide...
>> Moonspeaker
     File :-(, x)
Well, my favorite is of course Nozomu, then Itoshiki family and Jun, then book store boys. (Such a ordinary taste...)
I love all the other characters almost equally, but especially love the girls who loves Sensei.

BTW, I love Komori, but I really don't understand why Komori is so popular with guys...
Maybe she is just a beautiful girl? Or kinda meek and pliable??
>> Moonspeaker
     File :-(, x)
And if it's allowed to keep discussing, can I ask a few questions for you guys?


What's your favorite episode or story?

And what's your favorite ending song (include footage)?

Aaaand, which do you prefer, Bure or Rumba??
>> Jentaro
     File :-(, x)
Oh my, so much to reply to...

>>1065044
I need to start recognizing your style damnit. It's so amazing <3
Also, that's incredible. I wish I knew someone that reminded me of Sensei...

>>1065353
LOLOL, I KNEW I WAS WRONG. THANKS FOR CORRECTING ME <3
Also, that's adorable. And it reminds me of Marshmallow Peeps( http://www.enquirer.com/editions/2000/04/17/peep.jpg ), except less awesome. There's nothing I love more than putting them in the microwave when Easter rolls around and seeing them become 5 times bigger. Then they start to burn D:

>>1065388
Aww. Those are nice combinations.

>>1065473
I love Komori, oh god...
I can't even explain it. And it also reminds me of the double genderswap Chie-sensei/Komori fic I was writing...(Think: "Don't open it!")

>>1065483
My favorite episode? Hmm... it's definitely any episode where Jun is being fabulous or does story time.

Favorite ending song? Marionette. Hands down. And no, it's not because Haga is "Romeo" and Aoyama is "Juliet", but that definitely helps. And I just love the animation to it because it gives a hell of a lot more love for the other guys than the series does.

OH GOD, PREPARE FOR HEATED DEBATE(that is, if we were in /a/ of course...). I love them both, and each one fits their distinct seasons. But I love Rumba more. I can't even describe it.
>> Anonymous

>>1065483

I can't even answer that question truthfully. There was just so much going on that I enjoyed that it's impossible for me to pinpoint anything specific. BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THE QUESTION...I'll choose the Zetsubou Channel one. You get Uke Cook Sensei, horrible drawings that BLEED, and Sensei dancing on a chair. That pretty much translates to: WIN, WIN, AND WIN.

My favorite ending would be Zessei Bijin. I really like the visuals. Frantic Sensei? Yes. Sensei in a courtroom drawing. Yes. Sensei getting choked? Hell yes. I love it when Sensei's in despair <3

Oh god, I might have to go with Runba. But I really love Bure as well. I think I like the beginning for Bure better but I love the middle part of Runba WAY more.

Here's a pic of the boys lookin' MIGHTY fabuloooous. Just look at all that GAY.

I agree with Jen. Marionette definitely wins.

Rumba kinda owns Bure's ass, but honestly, i love them both.

>And I really hope he won't try suicide...
Unless... it's a love suicide~! Oh no, no, I'm joking. My co-worker and I are always relieved to see him because that means he's still alive. Actually last time we spoke, I recommended No Longer Human to him. I wonder if he'll check it out.

>>1065473
I think Komori is considered moe? I don't understand it, she's my least favourite of all the girls to be blunt.

The text in the image is from a poem by Steinn Steinarr and translates:
Jun: Time is like the water and the water is cold and deep
Nozomu: Like my own consciousness.

>favorite episode or story?
That's impossible to decide! Ok, I always enjoy episode 7 of Zoku. There's so much going on in it and the animation in it is most interesting. But there are so many of the other stories that I love too!

>favorite ending song (include footage)?
For song, Marionette! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnEDkB-ds2A
But the Mike Mignola ending in ep 13 is really cool too. I never expected them to do something like that in an anime. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFySh9l2zRk

>Bure or Rumba??
Both! I can't have one without the other, it's my OTP. And Rumba tops, because of student cap and insane piano http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUcP9PdFMa0

Hey, I've read No Longer Human! I love Dazai's Japanese prose but the Donald Keene translation is quite good. True, it's not exactly light reading. But it also becomes a lot less depressing when you read it while imagining in your mind's eye, as I did, that it is as played out by the cast of SZS. 8D

Excuse my /cgl/faggotry but I actually carried around a copy as part of my suicide kit when I was doing a Sensei cosplay last month. And consequently I got damn near raep'd by some expat Japanese fangirls.

No probs~ I guess I just did a simple variation on the "bure" outfit? Some of it was kind of an assembly job; I used an undivided hakama from when I used to do martial arts. The fabric for the kimono proper was actual taken from an old one of my grandfather's, and was heavy, pale cotton-blend with black vertical crosses, but you can get really similar fabrics quite cheaply online. (I did buy some extra kimono fabric as a test run, which you can get pretty easily from specialist kimono fabric retailers on eBay. Just a matter of finding a fabric pattern that gels, I guess.) I used a pattern from Simplicity for a women's winter kimono but shortened the sleeves and thickened the collar-bands. Then I made the shirt and noose and stuff from scratch. I'd show you a picture of the finished product, but this is, well, 4chan. :D

It's from radio show called "??????????DearGirl?Stories?"(Hiroshi Kamiya:Nozomu & Daisuke Ono:Koizumi), and in this show, they ate Durian, a Southeast Asian fruit which known as King of fruits, and it's very very stinky!
