Honestly, kumdo and kendo are the same thing. You fight in a square using one or two shinai and wearing a bogu while trying to score points through specific target hits. Everything else like philosophy and idealogy is all native. Practices and rituals might also be different, but I can't imagine that much of a difference.
This reminds me of the Matrix all over again, especially the Animatrix.
I probably wouldn't, but I'm not even sure on that point.

@(>'.')>¿;=: The claymore is reputed to be a seven body blade... close enough if you ask me. I'm assuming the nodachi can also do the same.
@zeKer_pencil: I'm impressed with your above average knowledge in hand to hand weapons. But if it was me, I'd go for a gladius than a falcata, especially if you're fighting at extreme close range, swinging isn't as practical as stabbing, and that was what the gladius was meant to do, stab straight into the spine.
As for the falx, I find that it looks aesthetically pleasing but overall there are far better weapons out there to pull away shields or break them - the mace would be perfect to smash a shield in. I just can't imagine a thin blade that the falx sports would cleave any METAL shield in two, and the fact that the polearm is only three feet long proves to be disadvantageous against more conventional polearms of pole length over five feet.

That I agree is the embodiment of moe. "Oni-chan~!"
Though seriously, Shinichi Miyamoto gave one helluva excellent post on what moe is and what it can classify into. Remind me to +rep you because you deserve.
Another interesting link regarding "Kawaii" in Japanese culture, which would explain the origins of moe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuteness_in_Japanese_culture
Lol, I can just imagine the scenario:
*fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap*
-one minute later
*fapfapfapfap jizz*
*Bam!* (your sister, girlfriend, girl walks in)
Jaw agape and in disgust, she says, "What the heck?"
You slowly crane your neck to look at her. 10 seconds pass.
And then you say, "Wassup? Oh this? It's part of man's daily routine. Keeps the blood pumping."
Then she stares at you for another 10 seconds before hightailing it.
You say, "Girls... they don't understand a man's need."
*looks over at the computer and opens a new file.*
...
*fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap*
Just thought I'd share this bit of creativity when I was reading this topic.

It's almost a rule of thumb - anything Japanese that has been dubbed into English will suck and suck hard, with the exception of the few gems. (Samurai Champloo, Princess Mononoke, Golden Boy, etc.) For hentai, it's even truer. I remember watching the hentai Xtra Credit, and when I compared the two dubbs, I was really taken aback at how the dub completely changed the plot and mood... and them porn actresses can't act for shit, let alone voice-act.

Vega. Because he roughed and cut Chun Li up in the Street Fighter the animated movie. As for playing the game, I can't say since the closest incarnation I have is Capcom vs. Marvel for PS.

Well I tried for the first time to edit manga information to add a discription for other users, but everytime I try it just gives me thisError in query: $update. Table 'fakku.ratings' doesn't exist
Is it down or am I just stupid?
You're just stupid... j/k
You had that one coming. I also got the same error message as well, and I have 45 rep. Jacob noticed it and told me it wasn't a permission problem, so in all probability it is down.

edit: 44 rep - some idiot de-repped me for no apparent reason.
I put down yes only if I know I'm going out. You catch me at home on a limb, I look like a dork with my more comfortable but not fashion-statement clothes.
I agree with hermitVI, sounds like the series you're looking for is Saikano.
1. Guy falls in love with cyborg girl
2. Cyborg girl is used for war purposes
3. Began with an "s"
4. About 10 episodes
I think Saikano fits the bill.

Dress up in a maid costume and cat-ear headband, then pretend to be a dick-girl and rub one out while looking at yourself in the mirror while calling yourself onee-sama and yelling "no! no! n-not there!".Then I'll consider you a true "hentai otaku".
That would be plain weird than anything else, assuming IEAIAIO is a guy.

Back to the topic, i sometimes and regularly has dreams and fantasize bout rape, from light force to hardcore with bondages and the lot. But i would never, ever, ever, ever rape somebody or take advantage of a girl and i would also want to respect the opposite gender and expect the same. In the other hand, if a girl begs me to strap her onto the bed and spank her mercilesly its fine by me.
You said it.

Mace or Warhammer would be my weapons of choice. As cool as swords and Katanas are, I'd prefer to bash the guys skull or ribcage in rather than slicing him to shreds.I look at it this way, if I can hit with a Warhammer with some level of proficiency I could hit my enemy anywhere to knock him down and leave him heavily injured and have impending doom down upon him them with the 2nd blow of my mighty Hammer. I more of the "One-Hit Wonder" kind of guy.
Question is, are you fast enough to pull off a hit? Maces, warhammers, or axes are notoriously heavy... a person wielding a sword would strike/stab you first before you're finished winding up for a strike with a mace/warhammer/axe.
I remember this one practice I had with Tad... each club practice is an hour and half. We ended up doing subiri (or kiri kaeshi? I don't remember anymore) for over 1000 strikes. I lost count, but we were doing men strikes for over an hour because some of the guys in our club kept messing up the count, and as punishment, Tad would stop at him and go back two/three people and start the subiri again. (20 strikes each) This repeated again and again (One person was notorious for messing his count while striking... which fucked us over.) That, was hell.
Too bad zombies don't work on the same principal as the martians from Mars Attack! do by blasting country music in their ears. Though technically, by making a perpetual sound making device, you can lure all the zombies in one area and keep them there indefinitely since their main mode of sensing is through hearing.
