timemagetim Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Made the title too long why bother adding more? Anyway hello I'm Tim, getting used to the idea of the cosmere and starting to dig further but been reading Sanderson for years now. Still not through as many of them as I want to be. Anyway say hello I'm talkative about anything Sanderson plus plenty more like Rothfuss, Tolkien, Cook and Shan. Plus Pokémon, Homestuck, multiple animes, etc... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erai Sedai Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 The hobbit kicked everything off for me as well! That booked shaped everything for me Have you played x and y Pokemon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terisen Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Anyway say hello I'm talkative about anything Sanderson plus plenty more like Rothfuss, Tolkien, Cook and Shan. Plus Pokémon, Homestuck, multiple animes, etc... Based on that list alone, I'd say you'll fit in just fine here! What animes? (I'm a fan, if you couldn't tell by the avatar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timemagetim Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Yes I'm actually rather disappointed in the new hobbit movies I feel that they have been turned in to JUST money makers rather than actually getting across the good story. Yes I have Pokemon X and I'm very fond of it. I'm also pumped for Omega Ruby and Pokemon Z. My only complaints about the new pokemon is since we've switched to 3D models that ability to get lost is kinda gone but it's not a huge deal. And as for Anime. Attack on Titan, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Naruto, Death Note, Oran Highschool Host Club, Pokemon, Fullmetal Alchemist, Kill la Kill. I think that covers it.

Erai Sedai Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I haven't seen much anime before, But I've watched all of Death Note and it is storming amazing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timemagetim Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 i love anime because of the massive differences. Oran and Death note are ridiculously different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terisen Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I generally favor battle anime (manga), but I agree, anime has so MANY different types of shows within it. If you like Death Note, you may want to check out Bakuman. Totally different type of story, but done by the same two creators of Death Note. I enjoyed it immensely.

Cracknut Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) welcome timemagetim I generally favor battle anime (manga), but I agree, anime has so MANY different types of shows within it. If you like Death Note, you may want to check out Bakuman. Totally different type of story, but done by the same two creators of Death Note. I enjoyed it immensely. And it kinda tells story of them writing Death Note You should watch Code Geass if you haven't. Sci-fi/Mecha version of DN with more school/comedy/romance/action and a much better ending. And check out Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. It's done by the same two dudes who did Kill la Kill, although it's much more serious project and has less fan-service, art and animation is samey. oh and It has as much in common with Mistborn as Death Note has with Code Geas. btw how far are you into Cosmere?

timemagetim Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I've read the first three mistborn, elantris, both Stormlight Archive books, warbreaker. Also read the Rithmatist which i think i remember is sanderson. thats about it i think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Alloy of Law and Legion. Alloy is the latest mistborn and Legion is a novella set on earth. Legion is one of my favorite books under 180 pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellexe Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Welcome to the party! I would highly reccomend Alloy of Law. It's set in the Mistborn world and is fantastic book, I just finished rereading it a couple days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cracknut Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) And Emperor's Soul. It's a novella too but it's set on same planet as Elantris and talks about one of the most basic and important law of Cosmere. And it's good :3 Edited June 9, 2014 by Cracknut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endurant Archivist Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 @timemagetim Welcome! You'll definitely fit in around here. Libraries...I've not been to one in years, since I moved. I'm online for most of my work, reading is all digital for me now. Do you just walk in and get a library card at any ol' library? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Left Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 I have access to three different library systems. Its a piece of cake getting a new card in every place I've been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Now that we're on your second page, can I tempt you into joining the guilds/clans? We're a pseudo role playing area of the forums, and its a lot of fun. If ye have honor you should join the Newcago Court under the twin thrones of Queen Elsa and Lady Delightful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timemagetim Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 i love to roleplay. so whats the process for joining said guilds and such? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Left Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Picking one and then swearing your loyalty publicly on their thread. So you should go to Newcago and swear your fealty over to the twin thrones. If you talk about what your interets are, than you get a title that goes along with it. For instance BreathTaker became Lord Lager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
