Hello! I am Eris. I have been reading SSSS for a while, and I joined the forum a while ago, but I never knew what to post!

I am from the Midwest in the USA. I'm a gamer and a nerd. I'm trying to learn Japanese, but I'm not very successful.

Not THE Eris, Elder Daughter of Chaos?!   ;)

Thanks for formally introducing yourself.  We're familiar with all your delightful comments on the Disqus pages and here.

Re: Japanese, we have at least one member *in* Japan (teaching English, IIRC) and another (starfallz) who used to teach English in Japan, so they should have at least some Japanese knowledge to share.  And with so many language mavens here, there are probably other Japanese speakers as well.

So again, welcome.

P.S.  Your forum icon is lovely!  What inspired it?

Hello there fellow minions! Second post on the forum (First being asking about the signature flags) I'm AwsomelyNotAwsome, same on Disqus. Not that I post anything, just lurking around. I found SSSS when I was looking for a new web comic and this was the one that most interesting on TWC. Read all the way to the Chapter 5 break in one day, and to my luck the break ended the next day. Have been religiously reading this since then. I'm 1 Tuomi old, and I have social anxiety and OCPD. It's a miracle that I'm even posting here, but after a long time and the fact that here is such a amazing community I decided to join. I was born in Slovakia, lived for 7~8 years in California, SanFran, then moved back to Slovakia where I live currently. In my free time I play airsoft, read, draw (jk, I can't draw :P) and play videogames on PC. 8th year of school, would like to become a architect and in an ideal situation I'd like to learn Swedish and move to Sweden. So yeah, that's about it. i'm just gonna leave now. bye *slowly exits and closes the door quietly*

Well, Minna has said she is planning a really long storyline, so odds are the forum will still be there at that point! :)

Hello everyone!

After being kindly greeted by Sunflower here i decided to do his suggestion of introducing myself to the forums.
Well i'm a finnish first year highschool student who has quite a big intrest in history of Finland and the mythology of the nordics as a whole. With my spare time that i have plenty i have taken intresting in reading quite a few online forums and have taken part in some theorycrafting around the web mostly around Game of Thrones and other fantasy books like that. Still if people know me it's most likely from any game forums that i quite often inhabit and i have seen some familiar faces from years back back.

Thing that got me hooked to this said comic was most likely the fact it quite literally hit the spot. Magic, Nordic mythology, Finns, a post apolyptic world. With all the good stuff being there it wasn't a long process for me to get quite immersed. I started lurking this thing way back when the first few pages of the finns were released and have come back more or less randomly ( this time what reminded me was a wikipedia article about kalevala where there was a link to Minnas other comic and after reading that i realized being back here. ) but always enjoying my time spent here.

Now that my intrigue for these kind of this has grown quite a bit i beliave my stay will be far longer than before and  think i will come back here far more often than before. Anyways good to see you all!

Hello folks, new lurker member reporting in. I pretty much stumbled upon the web comic then this forum by chance, took one look around and decided I liked the look of the place. I'm a 21 year old college student from Florida, so I know the native language (ie spanish  ;)) and english.

I guess that's about it for now.

Wow, I look away for a second (or a day... details, details...), and zap - two new names at once! Welcome, both of you!

I hope you'll enjoy your stay for a long, long time. :)
