Hello, Svalbard, welcome to the forum!  It's neat how many languages you know, or are at least learning.

Welcome, saminiemi!  I approve of your icon.
What kind of thrillers do you like?  Do you like modern day thrillers with fantasy?  Or at least a story about a soldier training in snowy mountains who spots a dragon that flies away, and no one believes him.  But then he goes on a magical adventure because of it.

I want to visit Finland someday.  Unfortunately someday may have to be far off.  Hope some other minnions can go!

Hello everyone!

I'm Australian, and I'm fifteen. I'm not going to tell my actual name because I don't usually do that on the Internet, safety and all that. I only really became a fan pretty much two days ago, I binge read everything in the space of a day, but I love it so much!

I love books and comics, especially stories like SSSS, where a group of people, whether they know each other or not, get thrown into a situation of survival. Big groups, small groups, I love them all. The more danger, the better!

I'm afraid I'm not very worldly, I've only been out of Australia three times, but I would so love to get out and do more, probably after I graduate school. I've always been interested in Europe, and Scandinavia, probably helped along by me reading Scandinavia and the World. I don't know any languages other than English, though I learned Chinese in school for five years (of which I remember only a few select phrases, like how to say I am Australian. Super useful.) but I still would love to travel ^_^

Anyway, so hi everyone! I can't wait to talk and get to know some of you guys, and read lots of SSSS in the future!

(I'm also reading through a Redtail's Dream, haven't quite finished it yet though)
Fluent: :australia:

As with thrillers I read the easy popular ones. Something that you can read tired :)

Greetings everyone ^_^

I am late to joining the party here on the forums -- but I've been an avid fan of Minna's comics for a while now ^.^ -- I'm glad that I finally got around to making a forum account.  I love interacting with people from all corners of the globe!  I'm thrilled to be here!

Welcome Svalbard!

Um, hi. *waves* I'm just getting started on the forum; I stumbled on this comic completely by accident, started reading while it was still at the bridge crossing, registered on the comments a few days ago, just got on the forum. I don't really like to share personal details online, but I hope that was a sufficient introduction...?

(Also, I have a massive crush on Sigrun.)

Welcome, Lazy8!  It's totally OK not to share personal details, but if you feel like sharing some of your interests, you'll get a lot of pointers to relevant parts of the Forum and lot of potential new friends collaborators partners in crime!   8)

Interests? Hm, well, I fic, but not for this fandom. Just haven't gotten the urge; at this point, I mostly want more canon. I really enjoy rambling on about characterization, namely things that I headcanon based on logical deduction. Right now I'm primarily looking for a way to pass the time until either the next page comes out, or it's late enough for me to go to bed with the hope that I'll see the next page in the morning.
