Hello! I'm snowilsadmiral (some people call me Snow for short), she/her, and I found SSSS about a month and a half ago when I was re-reading aRTD, which was suggested to me by a friend a few years ago. I adore this comic and am so far very impressed by the commentariat, which is a lot better than what I've always expected comments to be online (mostly based on what I've seen on Youtube).

Facts about me are...I'm in college majoring in English and Math. I'm the only person in my family not deathly allergic to cats and by extent the only one who likes them. I write fanfiction sometimes (nothing for SSSS yet, though, my FFN and ao3 accounts still reflect my recent fullmetal alchemist obsession). My favorite parts of any fandom I get into are bromance and found family, so you probably won't find much romance in my theories or comments, just lots of friendship.

Anyway, super excited to be here, and looking forward to experiencing the rest of SSSS with everyone!

Welcome, Snow! Good to have you here! I'd agree, Minnions are much much better than YouTube comment sections :P

Welcome to all the new people I've missed this last while. I haven't been around as much as usual, but now the weather is warmer things are tapering down a bit with work, so hopefully I will have a bit more time to spend on the Forum again. Here's hoping that all of you continue to enjoy the comic and the fandom! And again, welcome!

I agree abpout the general civility around the Forum, we are a generally well-rounded bunch who are more interested in sharing our knowledge than ramming it down one another's throat.
Also another one in the friendship-please camp here - my general observation is that people sometimes develop a romance when they go through an intense experience together, but it's far more common to go years working with someone and never develop a romance!  (So says the person with 40+ years in the workforce.)

Hi there, I'm Taxx.

I found Minna's aRTD comic way back and I loved it- so when SSSS became a thing, it was a guaranteed that I was gonna read. Went through major life issues not too long after it'd started, though, back in like 2015, and stopped reading to deal. Randomly remembered the comic in August and looked it up again, reading through all of it and aRTD again to re-familiarize myself. Love the comic, love the characters- Lalli and Sigrun are my favorites.

I heard there were meet-ups every so often? I'm currently located in Texas USA, not far from Houston, so if there's anyone around that area, I'm game.

Hi there, I'm Nova!
I just recently discovered SSSS through a friend who has been reading the comic for many years, and I absolutely love it! (I read the entire thing up to page 900 or so in one single night xD) After reading A Redtail's Dream too and getting to know the fandom a little bit I decided to make an account here, even tho I'm not exactly good in socialising but I'll try my best c:
uhhhh I don't know what else to say...

I really really like Lalli xD


Looking forward to talking with you all in the future!

Hi I'm Sellenair! I found SSSS long ago, read the first few chapters and somehow lost and forgot all about it (couldn't even remember the title then, why memory). Miraculously came across Minna'a twitter earlier this year and still somehow didn't read it beause of work.
Then the kickstarter came and I got both books! Read them both several times and it was amazing. And then the final page was posted. I admit it was awesome, to read it all at one go. With aRTD right afterwards!
It's been a while since I last participated in any sort of forum, but seeing how friendly and welcoming everyone is, I've decided to no longer lurk as much and join (:
