The Animorphs books were seriously underrated. I STILL read some of them. I mean, they're not the Wheel of Time good by far, but they're on a level of quality alongside Eragon, I'd say. The backstory was good, the writing was good, the idea behind it was good... I never really finished the book series, but I liked it. I'm still thinking about writing that awesome non-morphing human resistance against Yeerks thing.

Anyway, yeah, I wished I could morph several times when I was a little kid, but the fact of the matter is that you can't have it without the body-taking-over slugs, which would suck. I mean, what if it was an Emo Yeerk? :shock:
Shop smart, shop S-Mart.

<Jeramyu> I'm going to mistranslate our own anime, and piss ourselves off.

You know, I've never tried anything that I've read in a book, ever. Not even pretend.

Mostly because I see stuff like ninjas and swordfighting on tv first.


Well yeah, animorphs was good. I never finished the series, mainly because after about 26 books the rest sort of became obscure and hard to find. I would compare it to Eragon, but Animorphs is original, whereas Eragon's toryline is totally derived from Star Wars.

And I just won't compare it to WoT. Because NOTHING is better that it.

Hey, I don't try stuff from books; just stuff from videogames. Although, I can say I've done a lot less of that since trying to do a front flip in shallow water and near bashing my skull in when my head hit the bottom.

Ah, the beauty of childhood.
Someday I may make a good signature.
