About
Marcus is a dude who says anime is for nerds and nerds look good with a fist in their eye socket. His idea of having fun is being that guy you'd buy a beer for first, then wax anime wisdom with later. He (un)ironically listens to gangster rap and chicano, loves awkward comedy, digs the cheesy, high school anime rom-coms and can edit a mean video together using computer wizardry. Also, I'm pretty sure he can mop the floor with anybody in an old-fashioned game of Super Smash Bros. Melee. Samus Aran. All day, err' day, baby.

He likes Production I.G., Madhouse, Corgis, Mega64, Seattle, Kenji Kamiyama, Canada, Detective Conan, Mac Dre, Amp Energy Drinks and loves Takako Shimura manga. He also reeeally loves terrible YouTube videos.

He hates North Korea, memes, itchy shirts, broken legs, Hetalia, Toddlers and Tiaras, and Zack Snyder

Another Friday, another AAFF-- eventually...

Welcome to episode four of Awesome Alliterations Fan-Fic, where yours truly spends 70 minutes explaining the ways of love and stuff via readings of terrible fan fiction. Unfortunately, I should probably mention that there were some problems with the beginning of this recording, so sadly, there had to be some stuff taken out, meaning that our introductions, mindless banter and the very first fan-fic of this week are gone forever.

Never worry, though! Because the best part of this weeks AAFF is still here and damn it if it's not hilarious. Since you won't get to hear me introduce them in the recording, the other Jtor community members joining me tonight are Irothtin, Marlin Clock, Kagato TEG and Aquagaze.

Since you'll be thrown into the middle of our recording, things will immediately seem frantic and out-of-control, so make sure you get to catch Irothtin laugh his ass off at Moe Piccolo and me loudly point out the "...HARE to the Uchiha Clan", Sasuke.

Our first fan-fic turned into a marathon session, and our third one has us taking various roles of the different character dialogues, so there's that to look forward to. ALSO, DON"T MISS a SPECIAL FAN-FIC towards the end. What's so special about it?

HINT: It was once written by one of the guys in THIS WEEKS EPISODE! GODDAMN IT, YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT!

Anyway, here are the links and the embed, so please please please sit back and read with us some really great (but ultimately terrible) stuff.

God Bless America, Land that I love. Stand beside her, and guide her. Thru the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam! God bless America, My home sweet home!

Welcome to episode three of AAFF, where fan-fictions go to be "justified" by warm-blooded American Navy SEALs! And huzzah! We've uploaded this on a FRIDAY, officially making this episode AAFFF. Alliterations are literally are shooting out of my ass at this point.

On a less gross note, you can join me, Irothtin and Marlin Clock in our latest dish of terrible non-canon fiction, which include the ABSOLUTELY gross "Osaka goes Crazy", a surprise Madoka crossover to celebrate the recent series finale, and perhaps some of the most patriotic acts ever heard in a fan-fiction podcast to top it off. So click on those links to the fan-fiction, read along with us, and prepare for a bi-polar journey of hilarity, to depression, to hilarity again!

Here's our Twitter shit, and a NSFW disclosure. Also, did you guys hear that Osama bin Laden died? Huh, that's weird.

The Chronicles of Sono Asahina
Osaka Goes Crazy

Puella Magi Madoka Magica in...

I had a lot of fun with this episode...maybe the next time we do this, we could get a bit more people because, hey, crazy and chaotic is just plain fun!

Hey everyone! Just giving a heads-up to say that I will be attending Sakura-Con 2011 here in Seattle, WA this three-day weekend, and I wanted to take this opportunity to try and meet with whoever is going to this fine anime/manga/video game/other shit convention!

I don't want to look at this as a get-together, where we all travel with each other to go eat out at a Denny's or rob a bank or something. Instead, I'm simply here to mention that I will be filming some stuff (mainly cosplayers and interviews of random folks) around the convention all week long. Now, if anyone would be so kind as to gather around and converse with other Jtor community members, or if you want to be interviewed or filmed, then I would be most appreciative to catch up with what you've been doing at the con and get to know each other a little bit.

Because I don't want to make myself look like an asshole craving attention, I should mention that I'm probably only going to be filming for a few hours a day in between panels...and it looks like they're going to be all at around the same time each day, too. These times would be around 2:00-4:30 PM for Friday and Saturday, and maybe 2:00-3:00 PM on Sunday at the Main Hall (right outside of where the main stage is for concerts, next to all of the escalators leading into the gaming area). I'll be the asshat wearing aviators and mercilessly making fun of people with terrible cosplays. I'll also probably be wearing something ironic, like a t-shirt that says "Ore no Cosplay", because I think I'm the funniest fucking person ever.



Anyway, if I could at least get to talk to one of you guys during my stupid filming, it'd be totally worth it! Seriously, if you see me anywhere, at any time, mention something about Japanator and I'll get you some smoothies or something.

PS: If you're going to dress up as anything related to Team Fortress 2 this year, I swear to God.....

Hey, here is yet another AAFF for you guys to not enjoy...which in turn makes you enjoy it! It's freezing cold up here in northwest Washington, so having these hot, passionate stories written by the talented fans (who obviously know how to write anything well) to warm up to is a great way to spend an hour-and-a-half. And guess what! Approximately 145% of the crew reading this evening are from EUROPE! Yeah! That one place other than Asia that no body really likes...

Sadly, I actually didn't make it this week for the readings, mainly due to my psychological fear of accents and the funny things Europeans say, but fear not! What we have here is a podcast fully run by some people of the Japanator community (hosted by Irothtin)...something that would have been pretty cool had they not been reading really shitty stories. Who are these brave members that decided to join Irothtin to do this deed? Why, none other than (in alphabetical order as requested by THE QUEEN) Aquagaze, Aqua_ng, Dragonzigg, and Kagato TEG. Were it those guys? I don't know, they all sound alike in the recording when I was editing it, so I couldn't understand much.

BUT! That doesn't mean this isn't a good episode! Nonono, in fact, it's pretty great if you devote the time to sit down and pretend to read with these guys and laugh as if they were actually more than a recording. This week includes some great K-ON! fan-fic (which really kicks it up a notch early on), as well as a sweet and heartfelt Evangelion story as well. Also, make sure you make it to the end for the two-part finale of last weeks favorite JESUSxHITLER: A ROMANCE!

Hey, maybe this could be a weekly thing if this goes well. God knows that there isn't a short supply of fan-fic out there. Either way, enjoy this weeks AAFF!

Welcome to the first episode of Awesome Alliteration Fan-Fic, where hip alliterations are what we're all about. But why didn't we upload this on a Friday, you ask? Because shut up.

Anyway, this little get together was arranged by Aquagaze, but me and some other community members have been planning this for a while now. However, we waited and waited for the opportune moment to make this, and coming in at just over one hour, I think that this first episode will pay off for all of that time we sat idle on the idea.

If you haven't heard, fan-fiction is all the rage in Japanator, and the only thing better than fan-fic is unintentionally bad fan-fic. So read along, with me, Aquagaze, and Irothtin, as we journey into three works of art, followed by two "surprise" pieces thrown in at the last minute. Trust me, you're not gonna want to miss those. If I do say so myself, this podcast only gets better and better...

While we didn't have the same amount of people as we originally intended, this means that our group of fan-fic reading shenanigans could only grow from now. So, make sure you follow us on the #GLORIO Twitter Group (because it's all official and shit) to receive tweets on Skype get-togethers and future projects.

So here it is, the completely RAW (meaning I barely edited this thing, so cut me some slack), uncensored (so this is totally NSFW), and immature first episode of AAFF. Sit back, relax, and read with us into a wonderful new land, where adventure rears it hilariously mediocre head.

Hey, Japanator, I hate you for all of these terrible ads you guys put on the front page. I mean, come on! You should just skip advertising sucky anime from now on and focus on other anime. You know...good anime...the ones that I like. Put on more ads for Baccano or The Legend of Legendary Heroes or something! Those are way better anime to advertise! Fuck paying bills! You guys need to listen to me!

Long story short, I have an opinion, and therefore, 98% of everybody has the same opinion. That's a FACT!

--Love,
Marcus
