How do you make room to watch so much anime and play so many games?

I only watch anime at night. On Saturday nights I sit down to watch Toonami, and during the weekdays, if I have the time, I'll watch a movie (rarely over 2 hours) on YouTube. So I pretty much just dedicate one to three hours a day to it (which really isn't different from what most people spend a day on TV).

As for games, I usually just stick to my 3DS, so I mainly just take it out now and then when I have nothing else to do (and I've been mostly sticking to download titles, which are shorter in general).

@RR539
Assuming during they day you have a job?

Not currently, but I do spend most of the morning cleaning house (doing the dishes every morning, vacuuming once a week, mopping once a week, dusting once a week, picking up loose trash every day, and walking the dog 3 or 4 times throughout the day), and fill out applications when the chance presents itself.

Overall, I don't spend much (if any) more time on games/anime now, then I did back when I went to school or had a job.

@RR529
Well good luck. I would like a job, but since I'm still only in high school I don't need one.

This seems to be me as well. At the moment I watch maybe three or four episodes a week, but before I used to finish a 12 episode series every few days.

EDIT: While I'm here, are any people members of anime clubs in real life? There's a pretty big one at my university, but I haven't attended because I don't think my tastes are too in sync with the average anime fan's. Also, this particular club does weird costume days and I'd rather not be pressured into a meido costume.

Don't do the clubs O____O

Haha. I've never been in an anime club. Every school I've gone to never had one.

There was an anime club in my high school, and in the university I went to, but there was no way in heck I'd join.

Sure, there was a part of me that was slightly interested, but my dad is the type that thinks you have to be weird to enjoy that kind of stuff (anime, non-sports games, comics, ect).

I went to the anime club at my school a few times. It was great, though no one ever actually watched much anime. Mostly just teenage nerds hanging out. I miss it something fierce, but at alas, it seems to have been disbanded once I left high school...

Sounds neat...wish there was some sort of anime club at my school...

I'd like to say I'm surprised that's becoming an anime, but I'm not.
Alright Japan, now lets make Panty Flash Fight a real anime!

Hey guys, I was wondering if you recognized these English voice actors:
Bryce Papenbrook
Cherami Leigh

They have been cast as the voice actors for Kirito and Asuna, respectively, for the Sword Art Online English dub, and I have been hearing mixed to positive reviews for them. Mainly comments such as "They were great in "So-and-So", but I don't think they can capture the personality of the characters". I worry myself that Aniplex may mess up the English dub, because they announced the voice actors at Sakura-Con, a mere 3 months after the japanese airing ended. Hopefully they're not rushing it too fast. If anyone can tell me anything I would be happy to hear it.

Also, I finally finished Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid, and I genuinely liked the ending, but at the same time I came away feeling disappointed. I still love the series, but still left too much unresolved.

I believe that's called Ikkitousen.

_{In return, I ask that you not question why I know about it.}

Just finished watching Project A-Ko on YouTube.

It's not a must watch masterpiece, but it's goofy lighthearted mix of martial arts, mechs, and alien invasion were a nice change of pace after the dark & gritty world of A.D. Police Files.

After browsing around the videos posted by the user who uploaded Project A-Ko, I think it's the same user who had all those anime movies/OVAs posted before.

Most of this users videos are the same (they even use the exact same screenshot image), such as Fatal Fury (all 3), Spriggan, Angel Cop (all 6), Aria Zeiram, amongst others.

Funny how I just happened to stumble upon the same user under their new profile.

Probably because the novels its based on kept going, but never were animated.

EDIT: Also, I'm familiar with Cherami Leigh, she's done a few shows I've seen, including Fairy Tail (Lucy). and I think she's done a good job lately. Lucy in particular is a varied character - smart and tough sometimes, stupid or even helpless at others, and I felt she pulled her off pretty much all the time I've been watching so far. Nothing to worry about, there.

I'm not familiar with Bryce, though. I looked him up, and he's done a lot of stuff, but none that I've seen dubbed.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica is a MUST.

Someone know where I can buy the pokemon series in japanese with english subtitles?

Unfortunately, no. Some Hong Kong versions might include the Japanese tracks and English subtitles, but I highly doubt the quality of those subtitles, and good luck finding a non-Bootleg HK version online...

Luckily it's already next on my list to watch.
