Lolz
@LoganM Aye, thanks for the heads up... Truth be told I like it a good bit anyway.
 
1:47 AM
@Krazer When are we starting Caturday? Based on UTC or EST or something else?
 
@LoganM Funny, this time you voted to approve the copied content. xD
If they get approved I'll go fix them again.
 
@Eric That one tricked me. I searched for the first sentence with quotes around it, and didn't get any results. But it seems like the only thing that got changed was billiard -> billiards.
 
Yeah. Sneaky, lol.
 
I will be more careful with that in the future.
 
2:08 AM
CISPA was passed by the house... O.o FUUUUCK
 
@Neko_Kun I would put money that Obama will veto it.
 
Yeah he likes his porn too I am sure.
 
It was turned down by the Senate last time. I guess we'll see how that goes this time.
 
Yeah, Still it is concerning that something would happen like this. and Suddenly CISPA was snuck back in at the same time.
 
2:24 AM
Cats are somehow harder to come up with questions about than fruits.
 
@LoganM Pfft. I don't know what you're talking about. I already have my question ready.
 
@Eric I have 3 ready, but in the same amount of time for fruits I had 6.
 
@LoganM Oh, lol.
 
Lol Lets go Play :3 Epic anime :D
 
And thus concludes Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou season 1!~
 
3:03 AM
@Eric When are you planning on starting with the cat questions?
 
@LoganM Dunno, I was waiting on Krazer's answer, actually. I think EST isn't a bad one to go for, though.
 
@Eric I want to go home soon though (‘A`)
 
@LoganM Should we just start now and end at the same hour tomorrow?
 
@Eric I suppose there's nothing wrong with waiting to post my questions until tomorrow also.
As such I'll abstain from the decision
 
Fair enough. I'll be posting mine when I wake up tomorrow.
And then posting a 2nd one later in the day.
 
3:12 AM
So.. Cat Questions.
Damn I need to think of things.
 
Actually now that I think about it, we had to seed the site with quite a few fruits questions before people started to keep doing it on their own. It might be good have a few questions on the site just to start things.
 
@LoganM Just go ahead and ask one or two before you leave, and save the remainder to keep things going tomorrow.
Besides, it's not like the questions will be off-topic if asked pre-Caturday.
 
@Eric Okay I'll post 2 for now.

Q: How many siblings does Tonnura have?

Logan MFrom chapter 7 we know that Tonnura and Duke are brothers: The next chapter, though, implies that Duke may not be Tonnura's only sibling. Has it been revealed how many other siblings Tonnura has? And do we know anything about them (in particular, are they all large talking cats like Tonnura)?

Q: Why is Poyo completely round?

Logan MThe premise of Poyopoyo Kansatsu Nikki is that it's about a cat who is completely round. Does the series ever reveal why Poyo is so unusually shaped?

@LoganM yay catties

Q: How can Sakamoto talk?

EricIn a clip of Nichijou that I saw, Sakamoto the cat is seen being able to talk, and appears to be quite intelligent. (His lips never move, but he does speak.) How is Sakamoto able to do this? Are other cats able to as well?

Q: Why did Airi say "Whose eyes are those eyes" at the end of the first episode?

atlantizaAt the very end of the first episode, Airi is shown saying "Whose eyes are those eyes?" - a key phrase from Chaos;Head, another visual novel and anime from the same creators. From what I've read, Robotics;Notes does have some ties to Chaos;Head that were seemingly cut from the anime completely (...

Q: What animals and confections are each of the characters?

Q: What's the deal with the black cat?

Krazer What is the significance of this cat the appears in just about every episode of the Trigun anime and makes appearances in the manga? What gender is this cat? Is it an inside joke? Where/how did it originate?

Q: Why is Nyanko-sensei a round, chubby cat?

KrazerNyanko-sensei is supposedly a very powerful youkai named "Madara," but he takes the form of a a round, chubby cat. What is the significance of this form? Did he purposely choose this appearance? Why/Why not? Why does Takashi call Madara by the name "Nyanko-sensei?"

 
6:15 AM
Should we reopen this question?

Q: How are manhwa and manhua received in Japan?

coleopteristHow popular are Korean manhwa and Chinese manhua in Japan? Is there a market for them as localized manga?

Q: What is Misaka 10032's cat name?

JNatIn episode 10 (Misaka Mikoto) Misaka 10032 finds a black cat. Touma tells her to choose a name for the cat, since she was the one who found it. She says that the cat will be called dog, which Touma dismisses, proposing that she chooses a "more majestic" name. So she says Tokugawa Ieyasu, which To...

 
1:29 PM
@Krazer I abstained from voting because I have no idea.
I also think there are too many spoilers in this answer so it might hurt SEO. Thoughts, anyone?
 
Hmm
Yeah, I can agree to that
 
@MadaraUchiha Do you know which parts aren't actually spoilers? I feel like the first one isn't at all.
 
I haven't watched it, so I can't exactly tell which are heavy spoilers which are lighter, so I can't really change that.
 
Alright, I'll ask Krazer when he gets here.
And congrats to @Krazer on 5,000 rep!
For when he gets here, of course. xD
 
2:12 PM
:D
not sure if i 'tagged' that right on meta.. heh
 
@iKlsR Change it to .
 
done!
 
is really only for changes to the software (on Meta SO) or changes to the site's appearance/functionality type of thing.
 
@Eric yeah i was thinking that.
ok :)
 
It's a good question, though. I'm not too concerned about it now but it will become a problem later on.
 
2:17 PM
Better to quell it from now
 
Mostly, you can get information you need from Wikipedia (or MAL, or ANN). Do not copy from Wikipedia or other sources, but it is a good way to get information that you can put into your own sentences.
 
2:31 PM
@MadaraUchiha If you have a minute, can you come to the social media chatroom?

Q: Were Luna and Artemis the only (sentient) cats in Sailor Moon?

EricIn Sailor Moon, there are two cats, Luna and Artemis, who I believe act as advisers for Sailor Moon's mother, the queen. It's been a while since I've seen the anime, but were there any other sentient cats in Sailor Moon? Or were these two the only ones?

Q: Encouraging users to document new tags

iKlsROften when users, mostly new (those who get association bonuses) ask a question, to identify it or its basis they will often create new tags and leave them as just that. For others of us who have no idea what this is, might want to help or are just interested it should be there. This also create...

@Krazer You have the best ASCII faces. xD
 
I have a bank of them
but they are no where near as extensive as LoganM's VN screencap library

Nor his Miki collection. Nor his VN screenshot collection.

@Eric yay~ Grats @Krazer
 
7:18 PM
xD
 
would spoiler tags hurt SEO?
 
Yes, nothing in spoiler tags is marked by a search engine. Madara and I were talking about it, but neither of us knew what could have the tags removed.
 
@Eric the first and last are not spoilers I'm not sure if the second one is accurate
 
@Krazer At the very least, I think the "Yes and no." can be taken out of the 2nd spoiler.
But I have no idea when it comes to the accuracy.
 
@Eric I don't think it was ever mentioned... that there was a strange occurrence passed that may or may not have involved gratuitous amounts of alcohol and Madara was sealed at a shrine near Yatsuhara
theses a plot points given early on so I don't think they should be considered spoilers
 
7:25 PM
Early on, as in, first 10% of the series kind of thing?
 
something like that
 
Then yeah, spoiler-free is fine.
I usually draw the line at mid-season-one or 10% of the whole series. It's worked pretty well so far.
Unless the spoiler is directly related to the question, in which case I don't bother with spoilers.
 
I don't understand why he is calling him "Nyankon-sensei"
 
The sensei part is explained by the answerer, but not the "Nyanko" part.
 
@Krazer That cat looks awesome xD

@MadaraUchiha Hallo.

Fair, fair.
@Krazer They named a cat after me?

Q: Why is Train Heartnet called Black Cat?

kuwalyThe main character of Black Cat, Train Heartnet, is called Black Cat. Where did that name come from? Is it a reference to him being an assassin and, as such, being "bad luck" for people whose paths he crosses?

 
9:18 PM
@MadaraUchiha only as a tribute to your greatness.
 
@Krazer Obviously
 
9:48 PM
hrrm, hrrm
Is it ok to break the cat spree. :P
also is it ok to tag a question with two separate series tags?
 
@iKlsR Yes, you can ask non-cat questions. And yes, this is okay, as long as both series are related.
 
gratz
@Eric well not really, its more of a question if they are ..
hrmm.. lets see
 
Think of it this way:
Could an expert in either one of the tagged series be able to contribute to an answer?
If yes, tag them. If not, don't.
 
ah. more than likely
ok

Q: Is Roronoa Zoro based on Rurouni Kenshin?

iKlsRThere are several similarities between the two characters and also the characters they interact with. They are both extremely skilled swordsmen. Their names/titles are slightly similiar and hint at being swordsmen, not entirely sure about Roronoa but Kenshin's name was derived from some samurai...

Q: What species is Pannya?

Logan MIn Mashiroiro Symphony, Pannya is a cute cat-like creature. However, at least in the anime (unless I missed it), her actual species is not named. The anime also has plenty of ordinary cats, so it doesn't seem like Pannya is just a chibified version of a cat. Furthermore, there seem to be other an...

Q: Is "The Melancholy of Momoneko-sama" based on any legends?

Logan MThe first half of episode 9 of Tamayura: Hitotose is a short fable-like story, "The Melancholy of Momoneko-sama" ("Momoneko-sama no Yūutsu, na no de"). It follows Momoneko, the strange pink cat in the series, and his battle with a boar. Many anime fables are based on real Japanese legends. Is ...

Q: What is the original text of the Bakemonogatari tongue twister?

Logan MBakemonogatari episode 14 has a fairly famous tongue-twister in it, which Black Hanekawa recites with her cat voice. It was translated as: "Can you imagine an imaginary menagerie manager imagining managing an imaginary menagerie?". The scene is here (potentially NSFW): http://www.youtube.com/wat...

 
Dang it, Logan. We were at 89.3% answered and you pushed us down below 88.5%. :(

@Eric That one's easy for anyone who's played the VN. Which admittedly might only be me.
 
@LoganM Yeah, I definitely haven't. And the English fan-translations are pretty recent, too.
 
11:59 PM
Unfortunately the manga translation seems to have just started back up about a week ago, so there probably isn't any English reference which will answer it.
