Hi! I am Noa! I reached 20 posts (I think...) so I thought I'd make one of these for myself!
I like cute anime with cute girls, Japanese idols and all manner of Japanese music, handheld games, dogs, and food, as well as a myriad of other things I'm interested in! I am bilingual in English and French and I'm studying Japanese as well, languages are one of my passions. I am trying to become a registered translator by the end of 2017. I'll answer almost any question as best I can! |
Hii Noa~ Questions for you!
What are your favourite anime? Why are you interested in Japanese culture? |
Do you speak French often? How do you practice (unless you're a native French speaker)?
Cutest anime girl right now? ;3 Favorite handheld game? |
Noa!! :D
What's your favorite Japanese food? What's your favorite Japanese word? What are some of your favorite non-anime cartoons, if any? |

http://i.imgur.com/DOONcpD.png?1 Why do I enjoy Japanese culture so much? Maybe it's just because I'm looking through the lens of a foreigner but I've always just felt a complete sense of comfort and calm when engaging in Japanese culture and media, whether it's tea, architecture, festivals, anime, games, music... They really have an amazing way of doing things! http://i.imgur.com/aL3UKes.png?1 |
DOGS! You mentioned dogs. :D What are your favorite breeds? What've you owned, if any? And of course everything about them if so.
Secondly, what's the process like for becoming a translator? :o |

I love all breeds equally but I'm especially fond of shiba inus, shih tzus, corgis and golden retrievers. I have a Chinese Crested Powderpuff named Maggie, here is a picture of her! She's almost 13 years old. Spoiler:

I have to take a certificate program that will last for about two years. Then when I'm done, I have to take the three-hour translation exam... That has a 30% pass rate! I can't say I'm not nervous. But, that's still about a year away. I have time, I can do it! Quote:
Quote:
Cliches... If that's anything similar to tropes, I'm always a huge sucker for clumsy, airheaded girls who can't cook and are always tripping. You know the type. Quote:
Yes, I'd probably watch that except for the pimp part, that's creepy. Quote:
I'd probably go with C. Quote:

2. We met at college, during a Magic the Gathering game! Also, coincidentally the first night that I ever left campus. 3. 9 happy months! I'm excited for my work anniversary to come up soon. 4. Spoiler:
5. Early 2012 I think? A few months before the anime came out. I was interested in it and caught up fast. 6. Yes. 7. Avalugg more like AvalUGLY 8. THERE'S A STARRRRRMAAAAN WAITING IN THE SKY, HE SAYS HE'D LIKE TO MEET US BUT HE THINKS HE'D BLOW OUR MINDS |
1) I'm going to mention a couple of anime and other animated series and tell me if some of these ring-a-bel to you, and what is your opinion towards it? (some of these are my personal favorites so we wont share the same opinion with the animes i like, the others are just random things that popped)
Spoiler:
2) If you ever had a Battle Theme, what would it be? 3) If you ever lived in a world full of Violence and EDGE, like the world in Old Detroit of Robocop, what would be your weapon of choice against mobsters, gangsters, hoodrats, dirty cops, SWAT teams gone rogue, the Asian Illuminati, the Lemongrab Party, and the Brotherhood of NOD, among many many other hostiles. 4) (As my first serious actual question) => What do you think are some of the best steps in helping people reduce the use of "SWAG" and "YOLO" in our everyday speech? |
Hey Noa, not to get all up on your grill but have you ever seen this? Whenever I see that face now I can't help but think back to that...
Hunter x Hunter is awesome though I agree! |
Quote:
Yes, HxH is great! I still haven't finished it, though. |
Few questions for you~
Have any favourite Japanese idols? Do you like any idol groups? Any plans to go to Japan? Want to go anywhere else in the world - whether to live there or just a holiday? How do you like your anime? Marathoning it in one go or watching it new as they air? Is there any anime you've ended up disliking? Have any other goals, aspirations bucket list (aside from being a translator) for 2016 or for the future in general? |

I'd love to go to Japan for a long vacation! I'd like to go to the countryside and visit and onsen, visit the Tower Records in Tokyo, visit all the anime shops in Akihabara, and eat lots of delicious food! I get excited when thinking about it. I usually will watch small chunks of one anime, and then another, and then another... I often watch multiple series at the same time. Sometimes, especially when I have long breaks, I'll watch whole series in one sitting! I haven't been watching much anime at the moment, though. ;-; Mainly just rewatching some old favorites! Goals for the future... Getting married and having my own house would be nice. Really? I just want to have a stable life. |

My favorite time of day is 10am-12pm, it's always very nice and peaceful, even at work! I also like 5-7am though I'm rarely awake at that time. Long trips... I don't long road trips or plane rides, they make me feel like I'll lose my mind. Anything longer than two hours and I get really antsy! My city is really nice, Seattle is a great place. Lots of fun stuff to do and great food, and a pretty good public transportation system! I think everyone should visit. I actually am pretty neutral about sunglasses, I barely every wear them except when it's really sunny and I'll get a headache if I don't wear them. So... they're okay I guess?! Haha |
Hey Noa!
Have you seen any precure/pretty cure series? Who's your fave Love Live girl? |

|

My favorite Love Live girl is the one and only Toujou Nozomi (I even have a shirt with her on it) but I also love Hanayo and Nico c: Quote:
|
What's your favorite kind of tea? (white? black? oolong?)
Who's your favorite Lucky Star character? Have you seen/do you like Nichijou? :) |
Good taste I love Nozomi, though my girl is Maki P:
I'd recommend Suite Precure and Heartcatch! Both are good and you can just go into them without having seen previous seasons. Anyway, what got you into ice type pokemon? If you were a gym leader what pokemon would you use. |
Quote:
My favorite Lucky Star is Miyuki!! She's so cute and deserves more love. I love intelligent yet airheaded characters like that. I love Nichijou! It's a favorite of mine. It's the first and only anime to make me laugh so hard I cried. My favorite character has definitely got to be Yuuko. Quote:
But if I was a gym leader, I'd have normal types, because they're so adorable! |
Why does your thread title look so sad?

Other favorites are Okuyasu, Joseph, Yukako and Lisa Lisa. |
Are you a fan of Hyperdimension Neptunia? If you are, what's your favorite game of the series/character?
