leong96

Ah, thanks, I will! Thinking about it, it probably doesn't make a difference if I keep that on or not. Eh.

Geez, I've been reading the wiki for months now; and failed to make an account. The irony! Where to start... The name's leong96, a proud Brooklynite and junior in high school who derived his username from his last name and a subway station number! Truly I am an original man! If I remember right, my younger sister introduced my Detective Conan (or Case Closed, as I knew it at the time). One of her junior high school friends had left a Case Closed manga in the music room, and my sister was to get it back. She read it, and started borrowing volume after volume form the library for quite a few weeks. I didn't think much of it; a good manga's probably a good manga. I later learned that her first chapter was Kaitou Kid's first DC appearance... I read a few chapter's and found it interesting, but I didn't get serious until I asked her while we were going to summer school the six words that would change both our lives... "Isn't there an anime for this?" Indeed their was. Case Closed (the dub) was the first anime my sister dedicated herself to. Once she got to the end of the Funimation episodes (131 in the Japanese count?), she continued to the original Detective Conan in Japanese, and spent the entire summer of 2010 watching the what, 570-ish episode's available at the time? An impressive feet; I had made it to the Moonlight Sonata case of the dub, before going on hiatus... This portion of my life would be engraved in my head for years to come... At some point, I decided to return to watching the series around the 580-ish (the thirteen red sweater's case?) point. I realized just how far the series had gone (especially the animation...), and I've been watching it ever since. When ever I need information regarding a gap, I'll usually either look at the wiki, or ask my sister; who had read (and still reads) the translated DCTP manga, along with the anime. And then, I learned about the podcast... And that's the "How'd I get into Conan?" story. I hope I didn't bore you! What else? My favorite character would probably be Okiya (if only he appeared more often...), and from Kaitou; it would be Akako, who seems to defy logic in Conan's world! Well, it certainly looked genuine in the Magic Kaito 4... I think NYC is the best place in the world, the transit system in it is a lovable (but only relatively decent) wreck that's in need of funding, and anything KyoAni produces (post-Haruhi) is awesome. Why did Nichijou need to end? I think that if done well enough, the Magical Genre is okay, and Pokémon (really, anything Nintendo) is usually quite good. Same with Yu-Gi-Oh! Sometimes, I think I watch Conan more for the opening themes then the case itself. Everlasting Luv for the win! I'm really just going to lurk around, like I do with most forums, but I thought I would at least get an intro post in. In short: It's a pleasure to meet all of you, please treat me well! Or something like that...
