yay for me.

[Sylvie]

You lucky bastard.

EDIT: That link just sends me to my blog.

[Ryth]

I will find you and kill you in your sleep so I can drink your blood.



I mean you lucky bastard.

[Zeromus_X]

I can't view it. xD

Well, congratulations! :cat: I've always wanted to meet Amano...:cat:

[BardTard]

It says I have to log in. I can't log in because I don't have myspace.

[~SapphireStar~]

Yeah, you lucky bastard!!

[Faris]

Who? :D

[Decessus]

Even if I can't see it, what are the chances that it's the real Yoshtaka Amano?

Anybody could lie.

[Khaotic]

I bet this will be closed or a topic will be remade from it! Soo... i'll make a topic:

Have you ever met a famous person?

(for the record, that link doesn't work for me either)

[Rainecloud]

Who? :D

*shrug*

Enlighten us, please.

[Kyri]

Oh my god, you met Yosh itaka Amano!?
......Who is that?

[Zeromus_X]

There's a nice little Wikipedia link in the post directly above yours.

[Shlup]

Everyone who asked who that is should be banned.

But, anyway, that link'll take any MySpace member to their own blog, and any non-MySpace member to nowhere. Fix it!

[Khaotic]

People who play final fantasy and don't know disgust me!

[Decessus]

You all disgust me.

[Kyri]

People who play final fantasy and don't know disgust me!

ohnoz

[Khaotic]

You tell 'em Mandy!

[Skarr]

Oh damn you. :P

[Rocket Edge]

That's great, i'd go completely blank if i met him.

[Old Manus]

lol I can play with the swear filters

[Breine]

Damn you, KainHighwind... damn you... *shakes fist*

[KainHighwind]

Link has been fixed in first post.

Yep, good ol' Yosh itaka. I also enjoy shi take mushrooms. :tongue: :D

[Jowy]

You can bypass the swear filter quite easily.

Yosh<b></b>itaka.

[kikimm]

But don't make it a habit. ;D

If you could just post what you wrote in your blog HERE as a post that would be great! :monster:

[Levian]

Never met anyone famous, well except for silly Norwegian B celebrities. :(

[yunacy]

you suck i want to meet him

[KainHighwind]

I tried the way that I used to bypass swear filters elsewhere, and it didn't work.

Yosh<i></i>itaka.

edit: HA! yes it does!

[KainHighwind]

If you could just post what you wrote in your blog HERE as a post that would be great! :monster:

Okies.

Words cannot express how surprised I was by the announcement of this gallery opening. Yosh<i></i>itaka Amano (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yo/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gifaka_Amano) in Sarasota. It seemed so impossible. Quite fortunately, it wasn't some off-the-wall rumor started by crazed Otaku fankids, bored by the wait for Final Fantasy XII. Nope, it was the gods' honest truth. <span style="font-style: italic;">Amano's World</span>, an exhibit at some unnamed gallery, one which used to be a country music bar, opened on Friday - about one mile from my home, no less. <br> <br> Amano flew in from Japan on Friday morning, did a (translator-aided) lecture at RSAD at about noon, then came to the gallery for the grand opening. <br> <br> (the gallery)<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/1987/P1010004.jpg<br> <br> ...of all the people I admire, here's one I never even imagined I would be able to meet. The man is remarkable. If you put a pen in his hand, he'll start drawing as though it were automatic.<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/8518/P1010008.jpgSee?<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/9508/P1010017.jpg<br> <br> <br> Amano was presented by the City with a framed paintbrush<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/3064/P1010022.jpg<br> <br> Here is Amano doodling a Vampire Hunter D for me:<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/6996/P1010032.jpg<br> <br> Kind of a bad/weird picture of Amano and Lisa:<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/3528/P1010033.jpg<br> <br> Amano doing a quick portrait of Lisa:<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/3918/P1010030.jpg<br> <br> Finished:<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/4015/P1010040.jpg<br> <br> He is a really nice and friendly person. Instead of simply signing his books, he does little drawings for everyone; some of which take ten or fifteen minutes. Drawing for people seems like his way of breaking the language barrier, as he speaks very little English.<br> More artwork:<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/5625/P1010038.jpg<br> <br> Sephi-ROTH! duh-DUH, duh-DUH, DA-duh!<br> http://img285.imageshack.us/img285/2036/P1010039.jpg<br> <br> <br> <br> So, uh, yeah... that was a once in a lifetime chance. I'm really glad I went.<br>

[Shlup]

The fact that he did those sketched makes him just a plain awesome person.

[KoShiatar]

*envies so much she nearly explodes*
I wrote a graduation thesis on this man you know.
Without ever being able to get in touch with him. ;_;

[Shaun]

I have no idea who he is. I'm just happy that the awful MySpace is blocked here.

[black orb]

>>> Awesome..

[Craig]

I don't even like those pictures.

[KainHighwind]

It's pretty disappointing how many supposed Final Fantasy fans don't know who he is. :mad:

Educate yourselves, guys.

[Quindiana Jones]

I love him so much that every morning, when I wake up and he isn't there, my soul dies a little.
