Since the bandwagon for this has appeared...

Can you hold conversations?

Can you hold conversations?

If it's a basic conversation, I could, to some extent.

 

[Satsuki]

That's cool. Are you Japanese? Or do you just know some Japanese for some other reason? If so, what's that reason?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

I'm not Japanese (though research one of my relatives did on a family tree may have found that I am by a very, very minimal fraction).

The main reason I have in learning Japanese is my ambition to move to Japan and become a Mangaka, as I've had such a goal for almost a decade. I also love more about the country than that, such as it's historical culture, well preserved wildlife and (especially) the women.

 

[Satsuki]

Awesome. I want to move to Japan too. Do you practice written language at all? Or have you yet to start doin that?

 

[Yoshi]

Will you let me be your editor when you become a Mangaka, CC? XD

 

[Captain Cadaver]

I practice written language occasionally, though so far the only area I'm well versed in is katakana, with knowledge in only a few kanji.

If you can make the effort, I don't see why not. B-)

 

[Satsuki]

Katakana before Hiragana? That's odd lol. Kanji is always fun.... and daunting. Well I can always help you out if start studying regularly.

You want to be a mangaka, so you draw?

It's mainly due to me being more exposed to the former, via titles of various series and products. I do know a fair amount of Hiragana though.

Yeah, I draw. I tend to draw at least 3 pages per day and stick to a strict schedule with it.

 

[Satsuki]

Understandable. 99% of the time people learn Hiragana first though haha.

I have the desire to learn to draw but I can never start doing it. Any tips?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

I can't really say. A lot of my ambition and skill comes from having drawn since an early age. My advice would be to practice with drawing a character from another series at first when you find an image of them, or practice with still-life until you're more confident.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

Can you draw?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

That's already been answered.

However, it's indeed dependant on what style your talking about, of course. My drawing style for my own characters and such holds many elements from those of Tetsuo Hara (Hokuto no Ken), Hirohiko Araki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) as well as a lot of old school mangaka from the 70s and 80s. I guess you could say there's also a hint of Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro (Toriko) and Akira Toriyama in there too. Usually, it also depends on the character in question, as I often change my average style for some characters to have their design express their personality.

Who would win in a race between a snail and a worm?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

A snail. Snail racing is already a thing, to some degree, so there's more chance of training one for the job than a worm.

Do you think Duelist Kingdom rules could be functional in real life?

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Depends by what method. Being allowed into areas of great hierarchy through a certain amount of victories? Depending on the facility and game, possibly. It's practically true to that extent for celebrity athletes.

 

[withheldforprivacy]

I was talking about the game rules.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

In that case, probably not without constant surveillance on the island.

What is your opinion of Withheldforprivacy?
