Last Exit Before Toll

Letters

Since I don't have any actual letters to put here, I'm going to make up my own and do some shameless website plugging at the same time.

And now a word from Ryan Matthews...

Anne, are you still willing to do the Last Exit column for April?

I'll have to think about that 'tousan. ^_^ Next!


Shameless Plug 1:

I hear you're doing a project on otaku. What exactly is it? And where can I get information on it?

Pen Pen Katsuragi
NERV Chief Design Engineer

Why yes, Mr. Katsuragi, I am doing a project on that subject. It's specifically a documentary about otaku so I call it the . Here's a nice big banner ad you can click on to get more information about it.


Just why do you call Ryan "father"? Is he your real father?

Maron Glace
Bishonen

No, he's not my real father. He'd had to have been nine when he had me if he were my real father. 0_o Well, Ryan is the first person to post anime fanfiction on the 'Net so he's the "Father of Anime Internet Fanfiction." Being a fanfiction writer myself that means he's my daddy! ^_^


Shameless Plug 2

Is it true you're working on a radio play based on Ryan's Star of Jurai? Who's playing me? Mrowr! And who's playing Ryo-ohki?

Tenchi Masaki
Damn Lucky Anime Male and Crown Prince
Ryo-ohki
Spaceship and Carrot Consumer

Yes I am working on a radio version of that fanfic. As for when it'll be done, that I'm not sure. I'm rather busy due to school etc. I do have most of the voices recorded. My friend Don is playing you, Tenchi, and I'm playing Ryo-ohki. ^_^


Just how were you lucky enough to get this gig?

Anyone Reading This

Sending Ryan money helps. ^_^ Actually I volunteered to do this awhile ago and Ryan just finally answered me.


Just why are you so mad at Pulp? I like that magazine!

Amanda Hugenkis
Simpsons joke

I like Pulp as well, but I take offense at their treatment of Heartbroken Angels as I stated on the first page. I may stop buying Pulp if their treatment doesn't improve. I'm not sure that's going to hurt them that much actually, but it's more for my piece of mind. I buy lots of other Viz manga and have no problems with them. It's only Pulp that I have qualms about.


Hey, oneechan, why don't you do your Last Exit on underappeciated anime?

Joseph Sutedja
Little Brother

Hmmmmm, you know I think I will. Thanks, bro!


What is this wonderful anime store that you rented all of these tapes from? Do they have other anime merchandise? Will they give you any free rentals for plugging them so much in this article?

A.P.
Thinly veiled Alias ^_^

The store is located near Philadelphia PA and it's called , and yes they have a lot of merchandise. (Particularly Gundam right now). As for free rentals, I can hope but I doubt it. -_-


Well I guess that's it for my special guest Last Exit. I hope you enjoyed it and feel free to e-mail me or to visit . Ryan will be back next time to do a much better job with this column then I just did.
