  1. I guess technically my first anime would have been Pokemon. I saw a few episodes and watched a movie. I never really watched it much as a child however, it wasn't until maybe high school when I watched Pokemon. But I've gotten more into it now.
  2. The anime I'm currently watching is Coppelion. In it, a nuclear disaster that hit Tokyo in 2016. The government returned years later to search for and retrieve survivors. Part of the search team is made up of three girls who were genetically modified to be immune to radiation. When they were searching for survivors they discovered a society of its own and now they are fighting with one of the social classes. It is really good. I'm a fan of science fiction stuff like that. Although I'm not sure how realistic it is. If you would have to evacuate probably 20 million people, where would they all go? Japan already has very limited land for new development, especially in the central part of the country. Anyway, I like the series and I'm also new to anime. This is only my second show. My first anime was called Chobits and it was about this class of robotic computer people called persacoms. The main character has a special one that is more powerful than all the others and he ends up falling in love with it.
  3. I'm really surprised that there is enough demand for expensive housing like this. Are all the other high rises filled up, or is this just a scheme to make money and there isn't much demand? I know in places like Dubai and many Chinese cities, tall buildings like that get built, but then they don't get filled up all the way or they sit completely empty. I hope these don't end up like that.
  4. A Thread for Drawings.

    This is what I would do before Sim City 4: This is my favorite city drawing. I drew it in seventh grade. It's called Rogersville and it's a fictional city located in an area similar to Los Angeles. It's population is just over 300,000. I have like 6 more city drawings like this but there's no way I can fit them all on this post
  5. I find it interesting how so many of these buildings are found in suburban office parks. I guess one reason is because they stand out so much. In a area of single family and low rises a tall building is like a beacon of prosperity.
  6. I think an amazing yet underestimated building would be 311 South Wacker Drive, located in the Loop in Chicago. At 961 ft, it is the seventh tallest building in Chicago and the tallest building in the world known only by its street address. Yet few people even notice it in pictures of the Chicago skyline and Willis Tower. My favorite part of the building is roof design.
  7. Google Earth

    Wow! I'm not the only one that spends a lot of time exploring on Google Earth! I thought that I was weird for liking to do that.
  8. Small Cities with skyscrapers

    Yes, I would agree with the statement about Atlanta. I've been there and there are actually three high rise areas, Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead. Buckhead is very up and coming, with construction everywhere in it. As for my small city with skyscrapers, my choice would be Covington, Kentucky. It has about 40,000 people and a skyline with three buildings over 200 ft tall. Of course, it is a suburb across the river from Cincinnati.
  9. I agree with almost all of them. However, I feel like it's a pain to try to raise the ground to make a ground highway elevated and to do the same with the railroads. If there was a quick and easy way to do that, then I would do that. Do you have any advise on an easy way to make raised ground highways? Is there a mod or anything that helps with that?

    That was hilarious.

    Is there a greyscale image with it?

    9889 I don't read fan fiction at all or write it. However, I do write other fiction a little bit. I just have a great ability of creating characters and settings.

    9884 Those things really exist. I thought they were fictional.

    9837 It seems to me that every time a game series tries to do something different in their newest sequel than in games past, the game ends up being a disaster and a failure. Take the Mario Party series for example. The games in that series just kept getting better and better until they came out with Mario Party 9. Mario Party 9 sucks. I'm probably never going to play that one again. The same goes for the Sim City series according to reports. They should have made an improved version of Sim City 4, not tried different new stuff. Just my opinion.

    9834 Yes, I would have to agree. I don't even own that game, and I don't like it. I've seen numerous youtube videos about it's flaws, and saw online news stories about it. I won't be buying that one. I'm wanting to try CXL instead.
