Ask The Kana Thread

[Kanashimi]

So, I figured since I'm getting a lot of messages and PMs about random things. I figured I could answer a few of those questions here. Try to keep them related to the show or the website if need be. I don't mind random-ness, but would appreciate legitimate questions. I'll humor you though if need be.

So, what would you like to ask Kanashimi?

[TheDrunkenShadow]

Are you any good at bowling?

How many times have you won cosplaying awards?

What's the worst injury you've had to date?

Can I come out of the cage now?

[Shin_No_Kokoro]

Are you gonna answer all those random questions??

[Oni]

What is a man?

[Kanashimi]

Are you any good at bowling?

It depends actually... I'm a mental bowler, so if the bumpers are up I always go completely straight and if they are down, I always fail. I don't actually enjoy bowling all that much, but yeah.


How many times have you won cosplaying awards?

Zero. I don't like entering cosplaying contests. The reason I cosplay isn't to be judged, but to have fun and show off my creations. Maybe in the future, but competing is a big task and can take a whole day or two of a convention. Since I've always volunteered or worked during a convention I don't have the time to spend in a competition room.

What's the worst injury you've had to date?

Injury...? Hrm... none?

Can I come out of the cage now?

Hahahaha! No.

Are you gonna answer all those random questions??

Yup.

What is a man?

The opposite of a woman.

[EagleEyes]

Will Kana every tell EagleEyes?

[Kanashimi]

Will Kana every tell EagleEyes?

:veryno:

[Shadowblade Edge]

What is a man?The opposite of a woman.
My question is, why did you waste such a sweet set up?

[Kanashimi]

My question is, why did you waste such a sweet set up?

While I could have done a sexual innuendo or some sort of joke insulting men in general, I was too busy to come up with anything clever and knew I'd forget to respond tomorrow. Also, I have a feeling offending Oni might be bad as he is one of our reviewers. In the future though, I'll do my best to insult men of all class and culture. :awesome:

[HezaaChan]

Why can I see colours?

*ahem*

[Zero Gravity]

If you had the chance to make an anime, you have 12 episodes, what would it be about and what would the theme be? would it be suspense? drama? Shoujo? Shonen? etc

[chefofdeath]

When do we Attack?

[Chris]

I actually have a serious question, sorry to kill the mood everyone.

I'm just wondering what software you happen to be using while DJing?

[Kanashimi]

Why can I see colours?

*ahem*

I control your mind, and I wanted to make you see colors in a world full of black and white. Mawahaha.

If you had the chance to make an anime, you have 12 episodes, what would it be about and what would the theme be? would it be suspense? drama? Shoujo? Shonen? etc

Mmm... I had to think on this for a little bit, but I think if I made an anime right nowit would consist of our mascot, Brie. I can see her being this impressive singer and dancing in a sort of club, loved by all. Of course, with all the popularity, the club (91.8 The Fan) needs another person entertaining. So they hire a turn-table DJ who would be male. I can see Brie and this male DJ being rivals at first since they both want the spotlight, but their hate turns to possible romance. Also, there's some iStalk news in there, too.

When do we Attack?

We attacked on the 3rd, did you not get the memo?

I actually have a serious question, sorry to kill the mood everyone.

I'm just wondering what software you happen to be using while DJing?

Wonderful! I encourage more serious questions.

The software we use is called SAM Broadcaster, I'm unable to get into how we use it or how many computers we go through. The database of music can be accessed by any of our DJs, but I can't specify as to how. SAM Broadcaster can mix the songs together, use virtual cables, catch our voices, play songs based on ratings, use a request system, and various other things. As such, there are a lot of endless possiblities and was definately the best choice out there for us.

That's why very shortly we'll have a request system in place as well as a calling board system. So keep looking for those!

[EagleEyes]

Whats your favorite flavored ice cream?

[Kanashimi]

Whats your favorite flavored ice cream?

Chocolate chip cookie dough. I use to work in an ice cream place, so I know how to mix and match some mean sundaes, yahoo~

[Oni]

My question is, why did you waste such a sweet set up?

Hey Kana, I have a question.

Why is it that absolutely no one has ever played the Castlevania series?

On the side, why is it that people get fed up on the internet? It's just the internet, isn't it Kana?

[HezaaChan]

Kana, I have a question (serious one, I promise).
How come my forum posts have suddenly gone down?
Is it because you moved one of my threads? *edit- well not you specifically, but forum staff in general XD*

annnnd just because I watched Community Channel today~
What is your oldest and most favouritest (yeah, that's a word) toy?

[XIamSogekingX]

My serious question is...How hard is it to pick up the skill of running a radio station and knowing the inner workings of your system? When you get new DJs, do you teach them how to work the system?

It is probably a delete of one of your posts. Anything not on topic I do a soft delete, and state the reason as to why. So if its only gone down one or two posts, that's probably why. Don't worry too much, if there's anything major that you do on the forums we'll send you a PM.

My favorite toy... mmm, Bop-It. Though now that I think about it, I realize my cousin has had mine for like a year. I liked the classic one, not the round weird-o ones. Haha.

My serious question is...How hard is it to pick up the skill of running a radio station and knowing the inner workings of your system? When you get new DJs, do you teach them how to work the system?

It's not that hard actually, the hardest part is making a show for yourself. We give our DJs fee reigns to decide what would be neat on their show and what to talk about. The trick is having the charismatic personality and to attract people to keep listening.

Program wise, it isn't that hard. We do teach them how to use the program, mostly through videos and if they have questions we're usually with them their first few times on the station. Luckily all of our current DJs were with us before we started, and so we all trained from the ground up. For the new DJs we're looking at, we will be beside them to teach them.

I've played one or two titles, probably because people are lame.

People will have emotions, look inside your heart for your own. xP

[EagleEyes]

Kana what kind of pokemon are you? How do you do the things you do? Do you have a heart thats true? What kind of pokemon are you?

[dbull620]

Where did you get your username from (or what inspired it)?

[EagleEyes]

Where did you get your username from (or what inspired it)?

She is naturally sad? :yurp:

[Kanashimi]

Kana what kind of pokemon are you? How do you do the things you do? Do you have a heart thats true? What kind of pokemon are you?

I'm a Kana-mon, which means I'm better than a Pokemon and no Pokeball can contain me. So thaaaar!


Where did you get your username from (or what inspired it)?

I used basically a lame Japanese to English dictionary on the internet when I was like nine, and I liked the sound of Kanashimi. It wasn't a name I was originally going to adapt for myself since the actual meaning is sadness, sorrow, or despair. I'm not that emo-tastic of a person, so it wasn't that it fit me so much that I liked how it sounded.

It was originally me just searching for neato names for roleplaying characters, but I solely adapted it over time. When I started using it, Kanashimi was never taken... now... not so much. If it is, I usually go by the name of Selinya.

On the plus side, the name is from a lot of songs. :D

She is naturally sad? :yurp:
Not really.

[Chris]

I always ask this to anyone I meet from Vegas,

Were you born in Vegas? It's funny, I've been to Vegas and talked to a bunch of different people, and I always end up asking them where they are from because more often then not, they aren't actually from Vegas.

Actually, I'm usually the one doing interviews at conventions in cosplay. Go to the main page of 91.8 The Fan > Categories (in the side bar) > and then Conventions. I'll be posting all my cosplay stuff here when I get the spare time: http://www.kanashimi-network.com/

My posing is very amateur as you can tell. I only weight about 110 LBs, but a lot of the time I end up looking fatter in my pictures, haha.

Where did you learn all your web designy stuff? ^^

Well, when I was in fourth grade there was a computer club and I learned the very basics. I just practiced from there and kept doing it. At around thirteen I started to freelance and then just went from there.

What is my name?

Matt Parkinson or Patterson, it's with a P.

Is 91.8 the fan everything you want, nothing you don't... or are you just FULL OF IT?!?!?!

I'm wondering if we'll see any posts or cosplay gallery updates related to your adventures at Sakura-con? Please?

[Kadmos]

For your interview with Beau Billingslea, could you ask him this: "I felt you did better as Geronimo/Cyborg 005 in Cyborg 009 than the Japanese. What was it like playing one of the few main characters in any anime that is Native American? Thanks for doing it so well."

[Kanashimi]

I'm wondering if we'll see any posts or cosplay gallery updates related to your adventures at Sakura-con? Please?

Actually, it should be noted I never made it to Sakura-Con. At the last minutes I was pretty much told to attend another, more business and private type of event. So sadly I don't have any picture or anything to put up. Sorry... :/

For your interview with Beau Billingslea, could you ask him this: "I felt you did better as Geronimo/Cyborg 005 in Cyborg 009 than the Japanese. What was it like playing one of the few main characters in any anime that is Native American? Thanks for doing it so well."

I did not ask him this specific question, but Beau was lovely to talk to! Hopefully you were tuned in, but we got off topic quite a bit and it was more relaxed which was very fun for me (as well as the listeners I believe!). We didn't get into much anime talk besides Cowboy Bebop, but perhaps he'll be on the show in the future. I'm sorry I didn't see this in time!

[Kanashimi]

What is with the people of the IRC always being silent??

If you poke them enough they usually spit out words. Just be persistent.

[Cyrus]

Kana seriously, does it cost anything to interview all the famous people you interview?

and what does a booby mousepad look like?

[Zero Gravity]

A quick thinking scenario:

It's a nice Sunday night in a little town in Connecticut, your exhausted, you feel like having a drink. You walk into a bar, you sit down for a drink, they only serve alcohol, no water. Two men burst in wielding pistols, one man is 6'3, the other is 4'8. They hold the entire bar at gunpoint. The shorter robber sees a wad of money on a shelf 11 ft off the ground. The smaller robber then convinces the taller robber to let him on his shoulders, where he'll reach the money. The tall robber agrees and lifts the short man up to reach the money, they start to count the wad of money. There is $256 there. The short robber says he gets the extra dollar for spotting the wad of cash, the taller robber said he deserves the extra dollar because without him he couldn't have gotten the wad of cash. The two robbers argue for exactly 10 minutes and 35 seconds after the clock strikes 12:28 and 32 seconds in the morning. The Smaller robber then decides to cut the dollar bill in half, claiming that half a dollar bill is worth fifty cents. Being the gullible one the taller robber is, he accepts the smaller robber's offer. After another 1 hour and 15 minutes and 42 seconds of pillaging the bar, the robbers finally leave, only to be caught by Police outside who received an anonymous tip from somewhere between the ages of 40 and 16 in Greenwich, CT.
What do you order to drink?

[Kadmos]

For the interview with Dorothy Fahn: what was it your favorite part about playing Francoise/003 in Cyborg 009? I liked you better than your Japanese counterpart.

[toyNN]

Any chance to bring life back to this thread?

And perhaps way old news but what happened with Oni? Was it just one too many Aussie's at 91.8?

[Kanashimi]

Kana seriously, does it cost anything to interview all the famous people you interview?

and what does a booby mousepad look like?

No, we've never paid a dime.

A booby mouse-pad basically looks like this:

Nothing because I'm not old enough to drink alcoholic beverages.

Any chance to bring life back to this thread?

And perhaps way old news but what happened with Oni? Was it just one too many Aussie's at 91.8?

Yes indeed there is, and also we do like video reviews now and again, but we also require everyone to be on a schedule. Oni had school and other things going on, so he couldn't keep to schedule and thus we went our separate ways. :)

do i ever get a congrats or nice going for becoming a fanatic oh and remember when u said u would sing snake eater when i became one well im waiting

[Kanashimi]

do i ever get a congrats or nice going for becoming a fanatic oh and remember when u said u would sing snake eater when i became one well im waiting

You teased us with becoming a Fanatic for months, and after sending you one of your prizes you wanted more as well. By the time you became a Fanatic, we loved the support, but we also had gained double the Fanatics. After six months people don't care as much, sorry. #flick In relation to what I "need" to do for you, I've added more songs to the database for you than anyone else. I've spent my money sending you two of your prizes (one of which made it, but one was worth sixty dollars, too). Also, if you've read the VIP page, it says exactly what you receive... and you have since now you're a Fanatic.

Thanks for becoming one though, I hope you enjoy.

P.S. You also can't read cause when you told me you became one I said: "Nice."

[Kibs]

I think what Kana's trying to say is you milked it too long. #chie

Do you know any other language besides English?

When I was born I was originally taught German, but no one really speaks that in... Nevada. So pretty much that's something I don't know any more, I took Latin class at one point... but yeah, I can barely speak English much less another language.

If the Sonic reboot works out, Sonic and me will be good. If I have to play another Sonic The Hedgehog (2006) or Sonic Unleashed, Sonic will be off my Christmas list.

I think I rant about Love Plus all the time on my show and how much I want to play it. I'm seriously wondering how this isn't being translated at all. Do want~ <3

I will, I haven't had a lot of time to play any PS3 games ironically. I was waiting till I had the money for PSPlus because I wanted that hard core, and it disappoints me that I don't... every time my PS3 goes on I will see it and be tormented. #dowant

Kana seriously, does it cost anything to interview all the famous people you interview?


The only thing it costs her is having to put up with me :awesome:

Dear Kana:

If you could go back and ask one VA a question that you didn't get to ask during the interview, who would it be? What would you ask?

[Kanashimi]

Dear Kana:

If you could go back and ask one VA a question that you didn't get to ask during the interview, who would it be? What would you ask?

Wow, that is a very good and hard question. Mmm, I'm not sure I'd go back and ask a specific question so much as want to do a whole interview over again. I wish I could go back and re-do the Jennifer Hale, Daily Destin, Dorothy Elias-Fahn, or even the John Gremillion. Even if the interview went well in the long run, I sort of beat myself up due to stupid mistakes (like butchering a person's name, huuuuur).

If I could just learn to shut my big mouth or not go "alhriuehfsldskjfie" when I open it, that'd be nice. On the plus side, I can't keep the stupid away for EVERY interview... and four outta a hundred and seven isn't too bad. #poplar

I like the strawberry ones, but I can only have like one poptart at a time. They're yucky otherwise.

Yes.

If they were to physically fight? Travis Willingham looks like he could pretty much take on the hulk.

Mmm, perhaps. The answer is undecided.

If you were a flavor what would you be.

Vanilla, which means I'm sweet, but easy to spice up. xP

Mint Chocolate Chip cause it's strange.

More of a DC fan actually, but I'm not as big into comic books as I am video games and anime.

See, the funny thing here is you think there'd be a Kana out there who would do someone elses' bidding. :awesome:

Why will the What's Playing Now section let me vote for some songs but not others?

Why will the What's Playing Now section let me vote for some songs but not others?

It's based on your cookies, cache, and how long it's been since you voted on a song. So with all that in mind it should be noted that generally if you've already voted you can't vote again.

[Zero Gravity]

Did you miss me?

Music Meltdown is coming back in January. I paused and put a stop on them so I could work on another feature's format on a weekly basis. So yes.

Glad to hear the melt will return.
So who is Ikimono Gakari? - their bests album was just certified this week as a 1 million copies seller. Never heard of them before but their popularity seems very strong.

Well, they've technically been around since 1999. They didn't really hit any sorta success till 2006 though, but even then they've always seemed to have a nice fanbase. A lot of their stuff is used for dramas, and not so much anime. That's why I assume they're as popular as they are.

Why is 91.8thefan called 91.8theFan

[Kanashimi]

Why is 91.8thefan called 91.8theFan

Q: Why are there numbers in your name? Isn’t that only for terrestrial broadcast?
A: The numbers in our name actual refer to something. Since we started as internet radio, simply take the nine and compare it to the alphabet. You’ll get the letter I. If you use this same principal for eighteen then you will land on the R. This gets you I and R, which stand for “Internet Radio”.

Though properly it's written 91.8 The Fan, there are spaces between words.

Well, whats the deal with "the Fan"

The Fan refers to being a fan of something. It's not based on solely anime so it can be used in different contexts. That works out for us considering we have different subjects catering to anime, voice acting, video games, music, etc.

I originally wanted to be an anime voice actress, which is what a lot of fans wish to do when they're fifteen. I thought radio would help me be more confident and strengthen my voice. As I've continued I can't see myself doing anything other than radio because I love it so much. The reason I keep working on 91.8 The Fan is because I love what I do.

What was your favorite HP Book / movie?

[Kanashimi]

What was your favorite HP Book / movie?

HP? Like Harry Potter?

I've never really been a big fan. In all truth I hate J.K. Rowling's writing style personally. Her crucial eye to detail is so derailing from the actual point of the story it makes me want to fall asleep. When the first book came out my mom tried to read it several times to me (as I was young when they released), but I always fell asleep. I picked up Goblet when that came out to give the series a go on my own, but like the sheer amount of useless detail drove me crazy. Sure, she's talented, but not my style.

In contrast, comparing it to Stephen King (one my favorite authors) he often gives details on minor characters or previous events that have happened to the main characters to help give the world and people more depth. It's no where near as mind-numbing.

I do own the first Harry Potter movie on DVD though, it was decent. I've seen up to the... tournament and whatever happened there, I can't remember. Too much of an investment! Eight three hour movies, do not want!

[jessileo127]

Allright, if you dont like a detailed book, what kind of book do you pick up and why? For example when I am bored I pick up Dragonlance and re-read it for the ova nine thousandth time (true fact, I've read the book so much its falling apart :D) Its classed as Fantasy action but most of the time I pick up a book when I'm sad and I like to read fantasy comical ^.^

[Kanashimi]

Well, as I said Stephen King is one of my favorite authors. I'd read most of his stuff, granted his newer stuff I haven't. Dan Brown has some interesting books, Anne Rice, etc. I'm not uber picky, I mean if it has a decent plot I'll begin to read it. I really enjoy books, I just wish I had more time to read honestly.

[jessileo127]

If you had a choice between: Finding a Gene that gives you three wishes but you have to be uber careful with it cause its like a monkeys paw where you have to be careful of your words or he/she will try and twist your words.
Or
A gene that grants one wish but will give anything you want if he thinks it the item/thing you wanted.

What would you choose?

[Kanashimi]

The second one, though they sound suspiciously similar.
