Hello People, to think that when I made my Gatos Samurai website TV Tropes did not exist and we didn't have any official DVD release.

Hello! Good to see you!

Whoa!! I'm so glad to see that you're okay!

Also, remember everyone! We have a Discord server and I'd love to see more OG members find their way there!

Thank you.

I do not use Discord, not only is is spyware, you can't even keep logs like on other chat clients.

Also I nuked my account cause it keep asking for a phone number and that was years ago.

I am old fashioned, I use forums and IRC.

Today (9/11/2025) is the day I turned 30. I honestly can't believe it, feels like yesterday that I was a dumb teenager, but now my my teenage years are old enough to vote. Honestly, I still feel like a dumb teenager, but I have moved on from a bit of it.

Also I've gotten into Japanese Stationery and Hobonichi Techos (Neat Japanese planners), got one for 2026 so I can be more organized, or at least document my life on paper. Maybe I can be more organized for once or perhaps look back at what the hell I was thinking in 2026.

I'm not dead (knock on wood).

I'm also no longer all "hey everybody look at me typing in big, bold, blue letters all the time!" yeah, no, that was silly...

I can still try to be a fun(ish) person to talk to~ That is, when I'm not feeling down about something. Which has been a lot lately. But I'm not gonna pull a Robin Williams on you guys (yeah I compared myself to Robin Williams, shut up). I'm still trying my best regardless.

...But I have been getting some good new friends lately too so there's that :3 Maybe I should show them this place and how much it meant to me.

Yeah, I do miss this place's heyday...but looking back at all my old posts, it's like looking at baby pictures...on second thought, maybe I shouldn't show my new friends... ._.

Edit:

Hope you randos are enjoying your tour of these ancient ruins.
