We've reached the point of 50 members on the Forums Smile

WOW ... Little did I think that when put this forum out there that there would be 5 much less 50 people out there that lurv Shinkai as much as me. Awesome!

Thanks again to everyone who has contributed to the discussions on the Forum. You all rock!

The First contest will be over at the end of this month. I'll get out a Poll soon and have the final tally towards the end of July. The winner will get a Shinkai related prize (DVD, etc.).

Thanks everyone!
Laz

Wow, you are so right. I've been taking each new member for granted and didn't realise until now a solid 40 others have signed up to this forum after me.

Haha, I guess Shinkai's animations are more directed at males. Well you can see in most, if not all, of his stories are in favour of males, if that's how you said it... What I mean is that these stories seem kind of like boyhood fantasies and dreams, things we find beautiful, to probably the majority of the audiences.

Congrats to us, I guess! Very Happy

Judging by the member list I'm not the only girl around here, so Shinkai has other fan girls, hurray!

The joke is that we are predominately male ... with some females ... but we also don't have any Tarsians or cats on the boards either.
