I interviewed Japanese anime director Shinichi Watanabe, otherwise known as Nabeshin.

You know, the guy who directed Excel Saga, The Wallflower and Nerima Daikon Brothers

I also interviewed some guy who calls himself Egoraptor. You might have heard of him.

I thought these might help entertain people in between their bouts of complaining about carnages and rogues for the billionth time

PS: I'm gonna blow that picture up into a poster. Gonna frame it and hang it on my wall.

Phew. I'm glad DM posted a highly relevant and on topic issue to discuss rather than shamelessly promote himself as per his usual postings. I highly approve.

How is it that the less someone plays Nexus... the more compelled they are to post their thoughts on the Forums? :3

I realize you guys find something satisfactory about constantly agreeing with one another about how much Nexus blows in every thread on this board, but there are a lot of people on these forums who like both Nabeshin and Egoraptor.

I figured they might like to hear what they have to say and are more likely to see the thread here rather than buried in one of the lower forums sections.

I certainly think it's more productive use of their time than reading your constant complaints about this game.

Not to backseat mod or anything but you did post this in the Community forum and are promoting yourself.

Plus I have no idea what those three things are.

There I was


Probably not coming back to NF if you'd like to contact me talk to PyroAce in game.

Saw your video... Egoraptor looked really uncomfortable with you, to be honest. Was there a reason for that? I've seen other interviews with him and he seemed pretty straight-forward. Does he know of your blog? And other channels? And you? Did you tell him everything? Like, oh my god are you guys best friends now? And do you both like the same ice cream?

Seriously... your questions were so ridiculous, and he looked ready to be gone.

Yeah, he hated the interview so much. That's why he plugged it on his Twitter rolleyes.gif

Actually he told me that was the best interview he had. He was pretty glad that I asked those questions. I mean, I asked him about his creative process and what he intends to do with his work. That a pretty important thing for any artist to talk about, because every artist's process and goals are very personal to them and part of their identity. I'm a big fan of biographies about people involved in film-making and I hope that interview proves useful for those who later write biographies about him; which I'm sure will happen. So I tried to get info I felt would be interesting not just to his fans today but also his fans in the future.

The interview could have been much longer but I didn't want to keep him from his table all day.

I ended up missing his panel later that night because I took my girlfriend out to eat dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe on the riverwalk and it took a lot longer to get a table than I realized. So I came by his table the last day of the con and talked to him briefly about misc. things, mostly Youtube Partner related stuff. He might also do a followup interview on the podcast of one of the sites I'm associated with, Original-Gamer.com He expressed interest in it at least.

Just want to point out that I don't believe I've ever complained about Nexus on these forums. I may have agreed at one point with some of the more unfortunate aspects of the Nexus experience, but I've never lead a battle against them. I'm not a very active forum poster, nor a very active reader, I just find it funny that any time I do I always see DarkMaverick starting some new "project" that he wants everyone to donate to and praise him for.

Nice. I doubted my friend, and I suppose I was wrong.

You see, he told me "He can't resist but talk abot himself. Say something negative, anything. He's like Voldemort, he knows when he is being talked about."

Really impressed. You lived up to his expectations. I never watched the interview, nor do I care who you are; but its good to see you live up to your reputation as a shameless self-promoter. Kudos to you.

Uh, you posted something smart assy into a thread I created. Of course I'm going to see it. You wanted me to see it. You asked me questions.

But it's okay. I get it. Jealousy is a big green beast you don't know how to handle.

egoraptor is best known for the Metal Gear Awesome animation, but he's done a lot of other stuff, too. I've got links to his videos on annotations that popup during the interview when he talks about his work.

As for Nabeshin, look for episodes of Nerima Daikon Brothers on Hulu or Youtube. He directed that. He's pretty dang cool.

That's cute. You posted your shameless self-promotion in a part of the board that after 4,000 some posts, I would think you knew better than to post in; and I made a smart-ass comment because of it. I've heard you have comprehension issues, and it shows.

I don't know what I would be jealous of, honestly; but you're adamant to believe you have some level of clout -- so have at it, my arrogant acquaintance.
