For chatrooms- BBS is also good for that

Plus I'm known on there so I'm shamelessly plugging.

I'm also cosplaying Suit!Izaya and Dragon zombie Izaya <3

I agree with the both of you. It's a decent dub. Well, actually it's more than decent, it's good.

One of the things I really appreciated was the fact that they included swearing.
I don't like it when American dubbing companies go out of their way to eliminate cuss words, particularly when it's an anime more aimed at older teenagers/adults. The dub should feel natural, not restrained.

I appreciate that as well. Especially when it's a subject matter where language like that is natural.

EXACTLY.
Particularly since they're in a big city.
If they were in out in the countryside, or in a small town, I wouldn't expect it as much.

We are honored to welcome you into our lovely gathering, Suit!/Zombie Dragon Izaya!

DarkMoonlitStar · January 24, 2011, 08:59:07 PM

Are you guys chatting already? haha If not I could set up a room as usual with the same name and everything. It'd be nice to actually talk about Fanime...aside from getting...sidetracked..

username_error · January 25, 2011, 07:21:36 AM

@Last Exile. Well it will be nice to have some people on chat that I'm actually going to be meeting. I'm doing a dollars meet up with 4 other people there too. Cause we are actually a part of dollars. <3

PS I'm Chrome or Cain or bosschrome if you ever go in there~

But anyhow yes Fanime, fanime will be exciting~

LastExile · January 25, 2011, 03:52:50 PM

Just to tell you guys, I probably won't be on the chat at all during the week, due to school. :P
But I should be able to make it on chat on Friday and Saturday nights.

LastExile · January 28, 2011, 03:16:34 PM

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHIZUO~!

You should do it, especially with the fact that they had to keep it on the down-low because AX was cracking down on flash mobs. I really don't think Fanime would care, so it'll work much better here.

DarkMoonlitStar · January 30, 2011, 08:29:04 PM

I wanna watch the English Dub of DRRR!! x3 And I agree with HeeroYuy135 we should do it but I still gotta know the time slot for this gathering...to see if I can join you guys along with my friends.

Anyways people are still welcome to join my chatroom on the ikebokuro site. As long as the room name is DRRR!!U.S. and the host is Setton, that's me haha

P.S. It's been quiet in my room lately...o.o

LastExile · January 31, 2011, 03:40:27 PM

We'll definitely do the cell phone flash mob thing, although it might not be as effective for us.
If we have a lot more people than we did last year, though, it might work.

@DarkMoonlitStar: I can't speak for all of us, but I have school, and like our president, a boatload of homework every night.
So it's almost impossible for me at least to get onto the chatroom at all during the week.
But on Friday nights, I should definitely be able to go on.

LastExile · January 31, 2011, 05:20:30 PM

Oh, and just a random comment about DRRR!! :
I LOVE. The soundtrack.
