これはバタくんの新しい日記です。 (This is Bata-kun no Atarashii Nikki.)

Well, this is it. This is my new site. This is Bata-kun no Atarashii Nikki. Oh and if you don’t know what the name means, it’s “Bata-kun’s New Diary”.

Oh. I better introduce myself properly here and later on, I’ll bring out a real big profile. Hee hee!

My name is Don Umali, but many of you know me as Starchild, Haikyou or most likely, Bata-kun/バタくん. I have a personal site, Bata-kun Official Site, and I have other sites, though I won’t mention them right now. I have been a manga and anime fan for eight years. Though I was aware of series like “Sailor Moon” when they reached North America, I didn’t become a fan until I started watching series like “Eva”, “Ranma” and “Tenchi”. After that, it took me another two years before I finally got to the point I am at today. A good amount of the series I like are Kodansha series, as some of my favorite series are “Love Hina”, “Great Teacher Onizuka”, “Cardcaptor Sakura”, “Get Backers” and “School Rumble”. Some series I like that are not from Kodansha are “Mangetsu o Sagashite”, “Mahoutsukai Tai!” and “Midori no Hibi”.

As you can see here, the site looks pretty bland. That’s because I have started and I’m still trying to learn the tricks around here. Also, for the last four days or so, I’ve only averaged four hours of sleep, give or take an hour. So, yes, I’m having a hard time playing catchup.

Most of the time, I will be posting in my site diary because well, that’s my primary diary. I will try to post here every now and then, a task I never really did for my last diary in which I had an inconsistent rate. Why do I feel like I’m able to post entries here and not in my last diary? I don’t know. I think that my site’s diary and this diary will be the only two I’ll be typing at from now on. Oh. In regards of romanization, you can check here to see how I will type words in English for this diary. You already saw myself spelling Kodansha’s name the well-known way instead of the traditional way which is “Koudansha”.

I’d type more, but I feel like I’m running against the clock. Huh? You want an omake?

*I become Ralf.*

“Iku ze Clark!”

*I walk to the other side and become Clark.*

“Ou!”

*I stand in the middle point and play as both of them.*

“Cross Changer!”

There you go. Yes, I used this omake before, but eh. It never gets old for me. Ha ha ha! If you want, go visit my site and the sites that helped me get started here. After doing that pair of tasks, visit this one, or this one, or this one, or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or this one, or this one, or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or this one, or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or this one (Japanese), or uh, I guess I should stop now. =P
