Booty call, fandom style
Via Cheryl Lynn, yet another online meet-and-greet club has burst onto the scene with ambitions toward dispelling stereotypes about fans being weak in the social skills department. This one’s called OtakuBooty, and specializes in bringing together "intelligent, funny, sexy" aficionados of Japanese animation, manga and gaming.
They claim, "Not all Internet communities are overrun by 13 year-olds arguing about DragonBall. Most OtakuBooty members are in their 20s and 80% of our members over the age of 18." Which of course means a fifth are still legal minors. They continue, " OtakuBooty has a tight-knit community that has banded together for countless activities: a Full Monty-style fundraiser for Hurricane Katrina victims, raising money for a member who lost his apartment in a fire, and even clothing themselves in custom-made OtakuBooty hockey jerseys… And then there are the infamous parties."
Seems to me if you have that many underage members, you might want to be more careful about advertising Full Monty-style charity events and calling your parties infamous.
Absolutely addictive. Love the incredible depth and richness of the color, the sharp artistic story-telling, the smooth transitions from comic to dramatic moments, Robin's world-weary sarcasm balanced by a still-present desire to see evils redressed, and so much more. I laughed out loud at the hilarious moments in the bar. And now Robin's threatening the king and nearly puking on him? Can't wait for the next encounter between THOSE two. Hampton and Tinnell have great chemistry—-they "oughta be in pictures"!
