Teddy AMA

[Teddy]

Aight I gonna try my hand at this, to motivate myself to stay on the forums for atleast one week and see what MD and the whole has become.

For context:

I've been on MD since 2018 and before that Batoto (the original one owned by Grumpy)
I was an original member for the GFG for those who know
I am probably most known by my peers for my Necroing ability in the forum threads, support of the Slice of Life genre and randomly taking breaks for years lol.
I have been known for on previous iterations of MD to be able to enter the shadow realm
I think the biggest impact Anime/Manga/Light Novels have had on me is that during highschool I read lots of shoujo manga and attempted to embody a male lead of those stories which led me to improve in my academic, sports and socials skills.
AMA, I will try to be response on this for at least the next week (Oh there is an email notification option now lol)

Would you prefer a celebratory, aerated confection typically layered and frosted for occasions, or a structurally enclosed pastry vessel containing a sweet or savory filling?

Also, what got you into MangaDex and Batoto?

Also profiles on Forums and MD still haven't been integrated to one another yet?

Hmm I generally prefer liquid, amorphous or jelly desserts (such as ice cream, coconut jelly, smoothies)

So I guess I prefer the structurally enclosed pastry vessel containing a sweet filling then~
In terms of what got me into MD, cause Batoto shut down
In terms of what got me in Batoto, cause I wanted to stop using Mangafox which was (and I believe still is) a scrapper

When Hikaru was on Earth

Woah, someone who actually read the "Aoi" Hikaru ga Chikyuu ni Ita Koro...... manga adaption? How rare. Shame that they couldn't adapt the future arcs from the novel..

Anyways, do you still follow the A Certain Magical Index light novels even after all these years? If not, what book/volume did you drop it on?

Lol I read the whole light novel immediately after the manga adaptations, Hell Ping translations are amazing, shame that Bakatsuki died, I actually might get back into light novels if I can find a good aggregator a few light novels I would like to read again.

Thanks for showing me the profile

Yeah I've read until I think Genesis Testament Volume 3? Man I loved the series but due to the above, haven't read it for years would like to read it again

 

[Teddy]

Damn this is a hard question,

Hmmmmm It's been so damn long I don't even remember all the people properly lol, so I can't say lol
But ofcourse @pandascepter is 1st <3

 

[Teddy]

What do you think is the best and worst era in MangaDex history?

Hmmm probably V3 when all the early chinks got worked out but none of the major excursions, DMCA and High Passion Discussions or Money issues causing a potential change to a more sustainable model?

 

[BakedBanana]

Oh you definitely should someday. I'm still on the prologue Genesis Testament myself, but I heard some of the recent arcs even rival the Othinus arc of New Testament, which was a fan favorite.

If you could have necromancer or spirit medium powers irl then how much would you be willing to sacrifice for it?

Hmm I've recently started reading Albus Changes the World, and I've been liking alot, gives very heavy Frieren Vibes and I'm a sucker for stories who have that Slice of Life and brought to life by the character dynamics + Everyone (even the side characters have their own motivations and postive/negative traits) - [Side note, I don't think there are postive/negative character traits, just what's more suitable or less suitable for the scenario]

My favourite is still Full Metal Alchemist but I don't think that's available

Currently on the site? I don't know lol after the excursion and DMCA
I don't regularly drink tea nor coffee, but I think my favourite tea is sugar cane tea infused with ginger, peach and lemon, on the coffee side: Mocha

Favorite Pizza is probably a Chicken camembert, Hawaiian, Prosciutto & Burrata or just the a simple Meatlovers lol

Depends on the strength of the necromancy or spirit medium power? Are they essentially just ghouls or are they smart, are they decomposed or can stop their decomposition, do the spirits go insane or maintain their pre-death personality? Very Difficult Question.

But I think I wouldn't mind sacrificing an appendix or an eye for that power, If the deal giver will take excess fat, cancer cells, or urea. I can sacrifice that too lol XD

 

[Teddy]

Answered as above, Chinks worked out and not as many too high passion discussions that disrepect one another or emotionally filled without logical reasoning

So far I liked the April Fools, I love that's its being expanded now, I also appreciated the Feed to bring mainsite and forums closer together

Me lol XD

 

[Teddy]

How many questions do we need to bombard you with before you regret this decision?

Probably over 30? I don't know, historically my patience is pretty good.

I think Patience is a negative emotion, if you enjoy waiting, that's not patience in my opinion, I've waited unhappily for a lot of things in the past and also from that become alot more used to trying fixing things myself instead
