It was delivered. I was at the gym and it needed a signature, so they took it away again. :(

so I got tired of being out of tonkatsu sauce and shichimi, so I went down to the Japanese grocer, and lo and behold in the month or so since I've been there (I can usually find what I want cheaper from one of the Chinese, Korean, or Vietnamese markets in the area) they've installed a Japanese bakery next door... so right now... I'm eating fresh baked An-Pan... and it is soo good... after dinner... midori daifuku... (not nearly as fresh... but still...)

There is no Japanese owned stores or Japanese grocers anywhere near where I live sadly

I'm terrible for just assuming everyone is male. Makes for some strange surprises.
Meh, on here that's what I do, only know maybe two people on bakabt that are female(you being one of them).

4th Endless eight down just 4 to go. Bit of advice, don't watch more then one in a sitting.
I watched them all split 4/4 between sleep. I will have to say I enjoyed it but they could of cut it down too about 4 and kept going with no problems.

@kuran: I thought it was a 10:1 ratio
When Cookies become alcoholics the world has issues, oh wait that has already happened!
When I was growing up I wanted to become a queen, now that I did, I have to avoid brats chasing me with bats.
When the charm wears off, what do you have then?

Well, in most games that published the female/male ratio, it was somewhere around 1:4.

If we assume that anime attract to the same kind of people, which sounds reasonable to me, BBT should have around the same ratio.

According to the assumed-to-be outdated stat, Bakabt have/had approximately 5.5 males to 1 female.

Seeing that most males are too lazy to divulge their sex, the ratio is likely higher. Females might feel the same too but they have smaller population to begin with so the increment is low also.

But 10:1 is a bit high lol; I had thought that anime is a very universal object of interest.

I would say that females are more likely to conceal it or lie about it.

Well, they shouldn't. Females are awesome creatures, they don't deserve isolation like this >.<
