So, um, j0. I've been lurking around here for awhile, so hi. I don't know if this has been wanked before, but in case it hasn't, from the fandom which virtually invented anime-wank: The Tomb Of The Little-Known Senshi Error Guide.
The fact that it's a Sailor Moon page should generally point in the direction of wankitude, as this is the fandom where people have compared the DiC dub to the Holocaust in total seriousness, but wait! Did you actually think you were spelling the name of the show correctly because all the official Japanese merchandise says SAILORMOON on it? No, apparently, the Japanese are too stupid to romanize their own fucking names correctly, and needed Ian Andreas Miller to tell them that the real name of the show is "Sera Mun."
Anyway, the real fapping doesn't actually start in earnest until Mr. Miller states his purpose in creating the page: "The well-known Tomb of the Little Known Senshi Web site has been referred to as one of the best places to visit to find information about many of the more obscure characters in the Bishojo Senshi Sera Mun anime and manga. Does that site really contain accurate information, though? I do not think so because I have noticed that virtually every section at the Tomb contains patent misinformation. Somebody needs to stand up and debunk the fallacious statements at the Tomb. I am that somebody, and this Guide shows most of the major errors that the Tomb keeps promoting."
Anyway, it gets even wankier from here on out, especially the lengthy discourse on why "mau" does not mean "cat" in Egyptian, which as far as I can see actually has nothing to do with Sailor Moon-- oops, sorry, I mean "Sera Mun."
Am I the only one who thinks that a manga with characters named "Sailor Chanel and Gucci" (or "Channel and Guccicci," whatever) shouldn't be taken this seriously? Or is it just me?
