If you listen closely, you can hear the whispers of the heart:
Memories like falling raindrops scattered across the ocean waves...
I can hear the sea as if it were only yesterday.
About Me:
DO NOT send random FRIEND requests.
DO NOT send random CLUB requests.
I have them disabled so I won't get them anyways.

My Profile:
Please note that my Favorite Characters list on MAL only reflects my current favorites, not my all-time favorites.
The same is true for my Favorite Anime list. At least, I try to keep them updated.
Contacts:
I use my MAL to keep in touch with friends that I know, not as a competition of who can have the most friends/join the most clubs. In most cases, leaving a profile comment is good enough if you want to talk (I don't like PMs). If you want to have a chat, then you can leave a profile comment or join an IRC channel I'm on: #kazeyomi@irc.rizon.net.

1) Why did you stop using IMG tags when distributing member cards?
-Because it ruins my bandwidth. Some of you have like 200 profile views every day. Damn you popular people.
2) I requested my member card 2 hours ago? WHERE IS IT?
-Wtf 2 hours ago? I have a life you know. Just calm down and wait. However, if you haven't received a card in a week, then it's very possible that I somehow skipped over your post, so just leave a reminder on my profile.
3) Can I have cards from templates 1,7,12,18,19,20,27,31,34,51,55,63?
-Er, no. As much as I love you all, I only give 1 card per club, and I rarely give exceptions. Do you think you're an exception? Post on my wall and see, but do not under any circumstances post twice or request more than once in a request thread.

4) How do you choose which characters to put on your cards?
-I mostly use MAL favorites as an indicator, but not always. I often use characters from popular current series that might not have many MAL favorites (yet). Beyond card #20, I begin to put in my preferences. If you're still wondering why your favorite character of all time isn't represented, that's because you like some really obscure character.
5) Do you even know all of these characters that you make cards for?
-Lol, no. I do know most of them, but definitely not all of them. For example, I do not know Motoko, who is apparently the #3 favorited purple hair character of all time.
7) But I see you give some people more than 1 card!
-I did give people more than 1 card in the past as part of a promotional period. After about 250 members, everyone gets 1 card. Life isn't fair, I know.
8) How can you keep up with these member cards?
-I use a series of scripts of create the cards and generate the links that I post on your profile. While this sounds great, I only do selective QC'ing, which means some unusual errors might occur. This is why I suggest that you do not use special symbols (*&# etc...) when you request and shorten your username if it is too long.
9) Well? Do you like pink, purple, or blue more?
-My very favorite characters are pink, but there are more purple on my moe list. And there are more blue characters that I know and like. So there. Not surprising, Hinagiku, Ayumu, and Izumi are my favorite characters in HnG.
10) Which cards of yours do you hate the most?
-I dislike cards that I had to use a screenshot for, because their quality is kind of horrible. Examples include Tsukimori Len and Okazaki Shinichi in the Blue Hair Club. Also, for some reason, I could not find Izumi Konata by herself (she's always drawn attached to Kagami and Miyuki), so I was forced to use the zoomed background technique for her card. I also wish that there were better pictures of Nuriko for the Purple Hair Club. I also had to use a screenshot for Kusajishi Yachiru in the Pink Hair Club, and that card isn't so great either. I often go back and revise my cards, so the don't be surprised if two members requested the same templates but got different-looking cards.
11) Can you make cards for my club?
-Sorry but no, I'm very busy if you haven't noticed. You could try asking, but don't get your hopes up.
12) Member cards are gay and you suck.
-That's not a question.
I suspected that we would have a lot of things in common every week when I read your postings, but most of the time I can't answer your questions and I didn't just want to post "OMG Kugimiya Rie is my favorite tsundere lol".
BTW, it's neat that you're on the ISL staff. I spend much time yelling at my monitor because of it.
