Hello!
I started reading the comic last year but only discovered the forum recently!
SSSS prompted me to start learning suomi (and dutch which is my dad's mother tongue and has nothing to do with ssss but I actually started learning dutch because of all the different langages in ssss?)
I have a cat (of whom I will post loads of pictures in the pet thread)
And I look forward to participating in the postcard exchange thingy :D

cheers

And even though I studied it for 8 years, I can only say I like potato salad in :germany:

*ahem* Hello, I'm that Bunny!

I'm quite new to the SSSS world, but totally into it! I got to know about  the SSSS comic through an article on "der Tagesspiegel" (yes, this is german but no, I'm not a german even though I can speak it fluently). Here is the article: http://www.tagesspiegel.de/kultur/comics/jahresrueckblick-hier-gibt-es-weitere-comic-favoriten-unserer-leser/20650620-2.html (- hey I just saw now that the name of the SSSS comic is written wrongly!  O_o) I'm also a reader of Webtoons and Tapastic.

My hobbies are mainly drawing, writing, playing piano, thinking about scinece and reading (books as much as comics! :3). I also plan on being an cartoonist as second job in future so...  :))

And that's it! I think at least...

Guizguiz, hello and welcome! Have you found the languages thread yet? You might find it fun. And you will find that many of us are cat lovers. I am much amused by your text.

That Bunny, good to see that you made it over here from the comments! You will find lots of scope for writing and drawing in the Scriptorium and the Art thread. Enjoy!

Yes I found that quite strange, because it's actually very easy to tell the characters apart... but at least I got to know SSSS like this! :D I'll add it to the Minna/SSSS news!

Also thank you for all the warm welcome!

Welcomes to That Bunny, susanna and Guizguiz from me as well!

That Bunny, the Google-translated page from the link spelled it as "Stay Still Stay Silent" which I hope is just a GT malapropism. 
But I agree with JoB that Minna has done an unusually good job with keeping the features of the characters separate, at least when you see them reasonably close up.  (Quite a few will have features so similar, it's only the colouring that distinguishes them.)

I probably should have done this before I started posting stuff but oh well. :/

I'm Imogen and I'm a fashion student from the UK. I started reading ssss in about 2014 but I've only recently felt the need to be on the forums because the latest chapter is pushing my emilalli feels to the max and I needed a safe space to fangirl.

I can't really think of anything else to say but it's been fun having a nosy through some of the threads and I hope if if I post stuff it's not gonna be too annoying :)

Fashion student? That's pretty cool. Do you have a focus?

Welcome to Imogen, that's a mighty long time to have held out!  You'll already know then, that you have plenty of company on the Emilalli ship, it is probably the most popular one.

Thank you! I don't really know, I'm only in second year so I'm kind of figuring things out rn. I like knitwear, denim and mixing menswear and womenswear though if that answers your question :)

Welcome to Imogen, that's a mighty long time to have held out!  You'll already know then, that you have plenty of company on the Emilalli ship, it is probably the most popular one.

Thanks! Yeah I know! There's just so much to go on for that ship though, it's very hard not to catch on lol :D

你好, I'm pounce!
I've been a visitor of the #ssss IRC channel for quite awhile now (greater than a year), but I've neglected to actually create a forum account until now. So, I won't be surprised if a few people know me.  ;)
I've lived all over the US, and have visited France, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Brazil. I love to travel as well as be outside, so I may be visiting the meetup forum sometime.  :P
I'm a webcomic fiend—reading 16 different comics at the moment and looking for more! I found SSSS two years ago by accident, and devoured it along with aRTD. Still, I find SSSS minnions to be wonderful and I love this community more than the others.
For those language nerds, I speak English fluently and French much less so. I have many other flings (Norwegian, Vietnamese and Mandarin for example), but only feel comfortable in the former. I dream that one day I'll be able to learn enough to move to another country for good.
I also love reading, music, programming, math and everything cute, but this is getting long so I'll cut it off here.
