Akira3D is not gonna be too happy about your handle.
Welcome aboard!
Looks like you are well on your way to being an NSX owner!
Hey! I just noticed you are in San Diego. You should come out and chill with us sometimes. I love the S2000 and want one myself!
Another Akira, eh? That just doesn't seem right... Are you actually an Akira (like me)? A fan of the anime (like me)? Or perhaps a Kurosawa fan (like me)? I'm not changing my username...it's on my license plate too.
Cool that you have an S2000. I almost bought one when they first came out (had heard nothing about S2Ks when I stumbled upon two on the dealership floor while my wife's Civic was getting an oil change). but rightly figured it would slow my progress towards my dream car.

Well... I'm not an Akira, but I am a
Kurosawa fan. Am I the only one that
loved Rashomon... or even heard of it.

Well, Ilya, I've certainly heard of Rashomon...been meaning to see it for quite some time. To be honest, I've only seen three of his films...Seven Samurai (have the Criterion DVD), Ran, and Hidden Fortress. Must add to my Kurosawa DVD collection...it's way too small.
On an unrelated note...Ilya, are ya getting much sleep these days?

Actually, I'm sleeping fairly well. It's not as bad as it seems. Of course, I'm not the one who has to wake up and feed him all the time since I don't lactate particularly well.
Run, don't walk to the video store. At least rent a copy of Rashomon. IMO, it is by far the best film ever made regarding perception of reality. I've seen most of his stuff and it's one of my favorite. Find some time and see it. You'll thank me.

No, it just makes you want to THINK it is.
Hey there Akira3d! Yes my real name is Yamada Akira, born in Tokyo.
But I do like the anime "Akira" also, I have it on DVD. Anyways I am waiting for the new NSX. It's due in 2004 right? I can't wait. (I hope I can save enough money by then.)
I guess that would make you more of an "Akira" than me! My full name is Eric Akira Iwasaki...I'm U.S. born and only half Japanese (Akira is my paternal grandfather's name too...and he was born in Japan).
I usually go by Eric, but always use akira3d online. I've tried to get my coworkers to call me Akira (since there's another Erick at my workplace), but nobody believes that I'm really an Akira. Instead, they call me "E.I.". Frustrating!
And what a beautiful DVD it is.
Hey Ilya, I'm guessing by your recent posts that you're still among the NSX owners...am I right?
Yes, I still am. There are always a couple people interested so I'm not sure how much longer it will last.
Since there will be plenty of extra dough with the rolling mortgage gone, I plan to use some of it for racing. Mainly, it will open up the chance to do some karting every month or so which should be fun. It will have to do until I can pick up another.

I watched the anime akira too but I cant understand it..
I'm a Kurosawa fan too.. but I'm a greater fan of his grand-daughter.. Kurosawa Yuu..
I like her so much when I was still at Japan.. even till now...

Oh!
hey Ilya, congrats on your new bundle of joy. Just wait until the bundle starts to develop own 'sense of smell'
smart move on the breastfeeding thing. i didnt realize the REAL benefit of breastfeeding until my WIFE was getting up in the middle of the night. (i dont lactate so well either)
any other fathers out there with little ones running around?

Ditto for me too. I guess I'm too shallow to understand it. However I will check out Rashamon, since all of the Anime fans whom I've talked to had good things to say about it.
I am an Anime fans, also you should go watch: Princess Mononoke, Ghost in the Shell, Metropolis, The Castle of Cagliostro, Grave of the Fireflies, ... but not Rashomon, it is a movie!

Well, this thread started by an NSX fan introducing him and subsequent posts of "welcome / come hang out". But then the discussion morphed into something about words that have nothing to do with the NSX. Admin(s), time to move this to "Off Topics"?
True, it is one of the post with more different off-topic stuff in it!
1. New owner and welcomes (In-Topic)
2. Users names vs Real names
3. S2000: what a nice car!
4. Japanese names (with parents details!)
5. Kurosawa's movies
6. Childs, wifes and breastfeeding
7. "E.I.? E.I.?" joke nobody understood, except Zanardi 50
8. Cars for sale (I know of a person with a white NSX in L.A. if somebody is interseted)
9. Anime, what a fine art
10. Compalining about off topic: a fine art too!
11. Making list of off topic arguments (whila paid by my company...
)

12. Discussion of the difficulty of recognizing references that are commonly understood in one culture but not another.
I suspect that almost everyone in the United States understood this joke. Here, most young children sing a song called "Old McDonald Had a Farm", to which the joke refers. Click here to see lyrics and hear music.

Probably is not common in Michigan too
Nice song btw!
E.I., E.I. ...
(I tried to understand what the last & bad Spielberg's movie had to do with the Eric!)
PS: speaking about movies is not enlarging the list
Oh yes, it is since it is not from Kurosawa!

Sure it is! That's why I said I felt like I had the intellect of a FARMER (old McDonald had a farm...)
