That picture don't do it justice. The blocks light up. It's actually vey cool. Not at all practical. But vey cool.
I haven't gotten past the first opening, which I like a lot. It's very catchy.
I don't like the ending tune as much, but it's growing on me.
"BTW, the fourth Fullmetal Alchemist opening, "Riraito (Rewrite)" is available here. It's weird, but it grew on me."
Thanks--I'll check it out after I finish the episode of SP I'm on.
Not unless he's a scantily-clad chick, it's not.
Rules of "Van-sama!" are simple. You see a van, you yell "Van-sama!" and point. Ok, ok, so we have additional point-and-yell at cars... "Honda-san!" from Fruits Basket, "Pacifica-hime!" for SP, and "Mustang-choosan" (phonetical spelling of a word I don't know yet meaning "colonel") from FMA.
There is only ONE true Van-sama.
I really like the first close. The words are haunting. The second and third closing are boring (second has some redeeming artwork, though) and I haven't decided about the fourth close yet.
So far, the third opening is the easiest to sing along with, but all the openings have been good!
Yes, which is why we must point out and scorn the imitations. ;-p
Anything to make a long trip with loads of bothers less annoying.
"I'm still trying to convince Jr. that bodily noises CAN be controlled..."
My Mom is still trying to convince my Dad of that. . .
Sounds like a better idea than punch-bug.
That was a daaaaangerous game to play in Germany, let me tell ya. And that was in the days BEFORE there were new Beetles around.
People in my family are too fond of hitting each other anyway to play that game. And we girls like trying to imitate, say, Merle's voice for the Van-sama one.
Say something I can understand!
"Not unless he's a scantily-clad chick, it's not."
Darksheare, is there something you haven't been telling us? :) Or perhaps he's been experimenting with the Lurker 2005's Chameleon disguise function. . .

"Mustang-choosan"--ROFL! Sounds more fun than the Punchbuggy car game :) What about Suzukis? Hmmm--can you get points for calling American cars "Gaijin-kuruma!"? :)
The "Holy Roman Empire" was neither "Holy" nor "Roman."
Discuss.
Hi, Hair! What news from the outside, non-anime world? :)
What's the difference between the true Van-Sama and imitations?
What's to discusS? It wasn't.
Rosie's is the true Van-sama.
You're missing the main idea of the game... one only yells things that match anime names. Calling American cars "gaijin" wouldn't fit with that. I haven't seen an anime with a character called "Suzuki", or "Toyota", so those aren't part of the game. Yet.
Other random subjects:
Where do all the left socks that get lost in the dryer go?
Would the Beatles have been as successful with Pete Best instead of Ringo Starr?
Less filling or tastes great?
What is Lembas?
Do Dwarves really have more fun?
"That was a daaaaangerous game to play in Germany, let me tell ya."
No doubt, LOL!
Was too!
