A currently-thinning breed of teenager that is depressed and wears their hair black or colourful, with one eye covered. At a local event, I'm cosplaying as R Tanaka (a goofy android with black hair over his left eye, see the thread in General Discussion) but all my friends call him the Emo Robot... :d oh:

It's mostly a youth term, so don't feel bad for not knowing. :) Nowadays, all it applies to are depressed/shady people with hair over their eyes.[/QUOTE]

Thanks! So it's not an acronym for something else. I thought the look you describe was known as "goth" -- I feel so old sometimes :blush: but do like to keep up as best I can!

BTW I like the colorful hair thing. If I were a teenager I know I'd do that. Looks kinda silly on a woman my age though. I could be Mrs. Ochanomizu! :p

:astro: - I'm thinking of painting part of my points deep purple. Can't figure how to cover my eye though.

:hyo: - you? EMO? oh, please!! You're the original Mr. Perky

:astro: - Are you KIDDING? Look at my LIFE for Heaven's sake!

:hyo: - But you keep bouncing back with that grin and those BIG eyes. Should have named you TIMEX - "Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'"

:astro: - Don't you mean the Enegizer Bunny?

:hyo: - No, forget it -- you're too young to remember![/QUOTE]

Ooh, I'm young and I didn't even know what Emo was. :blush: :eek:
I would like to have hair like Black Jacks, but my mom probably wouldn't let me get it cut like Black Jacks. (Oops of topic. O_o ) :d oh:
BTW, that's funny, :astro: talking to :hyo: . :p [/QUOTE]

LOL! My friend Ashley likes a lot of emo anime characters, and one time at school this one dude was in her seat when she left to go to the office for an errand, and she was like "Dude get outta my seat!" and the guy was like "Heck no!", and she was like "Get outta my seat!" and I was like "You better get out of her seat before the emo chick gets angry!" and Ashley was like "Yeah, you do not want to see an angry emo chick!" LOL!
You're not a joke, you fit right in!
So shake it off, and give a grin. Don't be afraid to stand your ground! Crazy, noisy BIZARRE Town!

Also, Black Jack was blow to bits and had to have major surgery to get back to normal. It was bad enough when he got hurt, but he got more depressed when his mother died. (like you said, no one could handle that.)
BTW, If you have ever watched Black Jack 21, you would know that the explosion that hurt Black Jack and his mom was no accident.

Black Jack 21 (Memories! It was the first Tezuka series I saw all the way through) sort of doesn't fit into Tezuka's preferred storyline, though. A few of the plot twists don't match Tezuka's style, and the whole bomb conspiracy contradicts how Tezuka had the landmines at the beach as a representative of how war and hatred wallow around and come back to get the innocent. :( However, the Phoenix Disease was so effectively creepy.

Spoiler, backwards for your protection: .tuo-poc a hcus saw tahT ?retsis-flah s'kcaJ kcalB si namow yps deriahder taht tuo dnif uoy nehw ,ekiL


I just realize I have this on my harddrive...

I CRACKED THE BACKWORDS CODE!

It says, and I quote,

"Like, when you find out that [COLOR="Red"]redhaired spy woman is Black Jack's half sister? That was such a cop-out."[/COLOR]

Yeah, I can read backwords. I am so weird sometimes. LOL! Pinoko and Black Jack on the billboard. Long live the Tezuka Star System. Yeah, I know I got carried away with the colors. Sorry. :blush:

LOL, Colorful! :P Anyways, it was a nice touch, that the
red haired lady was Black Jacks sister.
BTW Fauna, what do you mean by 'from the terrible 1993 version'? The OVA version? If you do mean the OVA one, it was weird. Way more gory (did I spell that right???). O_o I still have to watch the Black Jack Movie based on the OVA version...
Also getting carried away with the colors... :P
