The club I belonged to in secondary school days, it survived from my first year to middle of third year, but was dispooosed then I have no idea why no 1st nor 2nd year did not join us.

A quartet called MINTO. Chokan. Tamai (former G&T staff). With me we formed a trio. When we finally decided name for the team. It went into dismissal.

Goodbye juvenile Our Ikebukuro
One day, I and Oyaji (SODAN (former G&T staff)) and Major (Kondou-kun) went to Ikebukuro. Our intent was to buy cheap furnitures. Houevar I forgot the route to. We had no other way so visited inquisition accountant, but it replied "What?" and sent us into despair. No way we can do so let's go McDonald's or so, so we went to McDonald's and stuffed us all. Went to Big Camera and received free binders, so we gained a bit.
It was a day before School Athletic Festival.

Censored
's Room - Anime Issue 1Nice to see you. This is in handwriting.
(because this man did not write in .txt format)
On this issue, I talk about
"anime, which is my feibaritto (use correct spelling "favorite", fool!) jenre (no, it's misspelled "genre").Let
's see the ranking to know what kind of the year 1996 was! (why is it...?)*Decisions are made on my discretion only...
'96 BEST 3 ITEMS
1 Slayers! NEXT (From April to September)
2 Kidou Senkan Nadeshiko (Tactical Battleship Las) (From October to present)
3 VS Kishi (Knight) Ramune&40 Honoo (Flame) (April to September)
*They happen to be all TV Tokyo programmes...
Eva (abbreviation for Neon Genesis Evangelion) was
'95 product, so I did not include.About
"Slayers", 1st ranking, no explanation is necessary...The good things of it is that anyone can enjoy it.
(I felt
"hey you, it's too early!" about final episode)2nd,
"Nadeshiko" is a queer kind.It
's love comedy + science fiction + farce + maniac anime at the same time.It
's a programme which bearly 90% of those who are anime fan are watching.(Also known many are moemoe (
"budding") toward Ruri-chan)Keywords are
"Bakabakka" ("Full of fools") and "Gekigangaa" (an imaginary anime being broadcast in Nadeshiko)3rd
"Ramune" is a sequel to "NG Kishi Ramune&40 Honoo" which was run 5 years ago.This anime is famous in the point which a heroine was robbed by sub-character, rather than hero.
(Final episode was a fraud. Something should be done to when OVA (Original Video-tape Anime) is released)
Keywords are
"Sore Gimmoon" ("That'sa doubt"), "Fuu-" ("sigh..."), "Yatteyaruzee" ("I get'em!") and others...Though not included in BEST 3s,
"Savior Marionette J" is nice too."Kodomo's Omocha" (Children's Toy) is out of its mind.
Especially given this anime is hard to distinguish whether a farce or serious..
In
'96, above all, women (heroines) were awesomely strong!(Especially Nadeshiko, which includes a character close to Rei of Evangelion...)
What I look forward most in
'97 scene gotta be..."Neon Genesis Evangelion - Shito Reborn". (I mean the movie)
I know there is a summer release, but I stay tuned for Spring roadshow! (Takamichi
's note: it's already in Japanese movie theaters)The growing stock in anime market, desperately with no mistakes!
Contents; The remake version of last episode 25th and 26th, and compacted 1 to 24th episodes.
(Despite its name, Shito (villains) do not appear, I heard. There are Eva machines 5 to 13, other than 0 to 4 of TV version)
Eva will be on midnight TV broadcast again around February, so if you have missed it, watch them!
...How did you enjoy
"Censored's room"?I tried to erase
"subject-to-censorship" articles as much as I could.If this corner still remain in next issue, please select from the following and send e-mail.
1. Good if this remains as is!
2. How about switching to other subjects?
3. I crave for more MANIAC tales!
4. Others (what
"others"?)So, I
'm going...P.S
"
YOU GET BURNING" is a good Japanese anime song."
Give a reason" is even more better.To be continued
Illustration Corner
As its title indicates, this section includes illustration. This time, Hikaru-kun, who gave me (Nameplatelord-the-Chokan) an original design of the cover for MSX Hatsumoude official pamphlet, did the drawing. Thanks, Thanks! Of course I am drawing too, but you can easily notice which is better (of course I mean Hikaru-kun's).
Then, let's go! (below 3 are all done by Hikaru. Others are by Nameplatelord-the-chokan)
Confession Corner
This is a section where you make yourself brave and confess something too embarrassing to speak out. For no one has subscribed, and there are few ideas, there is only one of such confessions.
In fact, I dyed my hair, turned a delinquent.
(Sakuji, Saitakama-ken, Japan)
Sorry, this is all for this issue.
Then, bye!
MSX Room
Silly MSX-related info are here. For this is first issue, only Nameplatelord-the-chokan write single-handedly, but stay patient you niphead.
Also, I am recruiting for next issue, so please subscribe.
OK, let's start the 1st article!
How to Mend Broken Disks
Not something so serious.
When DISK I/O ERROR occurs, if you forcibly read the broken sector using copy utilities several times, it may revive together with data.
If this doesn't work, leave it for a few days and try again. This also work.
If all fails, copy to another disk disregarding errors.
But, I'm puzzled, MSX has too much full of enigmas. Why it read and repair, after giving I/O ERROR? Anyway, I do not mind.
For there is no more to talk, the end!
Chaotic Anthologies
CornerSelection of meaningless no-rhyme verses. Let's begin 1st issue then!
Title: In the Name of Tomorrow...
By: Nameplatelord-the-chokan
Tomorrow came
Today should not be tomorrow, but it came.
Reflecting arrival of Tomorrow
Today became yesterday.
Title: Paradise

Happy is this moment
Come everybody to this land
Taking off of your every belongings

"............"
Title: BURN!!
By: Nameplatelord-the-chokan
I am the man who do what he wants!
The man who dash through this forest
In search of something
And never interrupt the strides

Of my style of life
You, observe and watch out
With force dashing through
And sprinkle the gasoline!
Flames! Flames! Flames!
BURN! BURN! BURN! BURN!
Today I burn someone's house again...

High school pupil?

So what the hell am I?
(Chorus: Pa, pa, pa, pa, (deleted by censorship))

I Recommend This!
CornerThis section represent what you think worth recommending. For this is first issue no one subscribed. Only one Nameplatelord-the-chokan.
Anyway, let's begin!
Campbell
's
Corn Soup
This is, deliberately, tasty. Other corn soups around are not worth comparing with this. This is TRULY tasty. I strongly advise you to buy and have one. Really is tasty!
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
Sophie
's WorldThis novel is convulsing. It's about philosophies, but I think even those with no interest in philosophies will be dragged into this.
"Why am I here?" From this simple doubt, the story is conformed.
It's good to try once.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
Slayers! Series, 1 to 11
Many of you might know Slayers! series. However, what you know is limited to TV programmes I think. What I talk about here is the original. It is not mangas, but novels.
Swordmaster and a beautiful girl (self-instructed), magic-user prodigy Rina=Inverse messes around in this humorous fantasy novel. Some scenes provokes bursting laughter, some dead serious, a strongly interesting novel.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
X
SinglesThis includes all 6 single CD titles which was distributed in 3 years since the debut of hard rock group "X" into major scene, a best album. Lots of good pieces are recorded so I think it's better to listen once.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
X-JAPAN ART OF LIFE
A first single CD since X turned into X-JAPAN. Surprisingly, one piece take 29 minutes of playtime, but it has full sequence of flows, so this masterpiece doesn't not make you feel as length.
A good music.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
X-JAPAN DAHLIA
3rd album, after 5 years since last X release, and a first one since it turned into X-JAPAN. 5 years definitely done good horning to it, which is a good album. There are many ballads this time, so easy to listen for first-time listeners.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
Deep Purple: Purple Chronicles (Complete Version)
This is a single album which include pieces more carefully chosen of the 3-CD best-chosen album "Purple Chronicle" (purple box) of the English hard rock group Deep Purple. All are sufficiently nice pieces. An original of the piece Ousama covered in his all-Japanese lyrics.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
THE BEATLES ANTHOLOGY 3
Last of the Unreleased Pieces trilogy of The Beatles, which is said to be a biggest rock group of the century. This do not include new pieces like prior ones, but is said to be a best of all.
Not only for fans, but also stand as a introduction to Beatles.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
Weider Weight Up
Most suitable food to build strong physics. It's rich in proteins and bone calcium, and is to be consumed in mixed with milk or else, and fairly nice.
(From Nameplatelord-the-chokan; Saitama-ken, Japan)
This is all for this time!
Insider Express Corner
Insider Express reports recent info about G&T Soft the MSX Usergroup, The Takao!! And Hakata-Morning Association.
Then, firstly, here are introduction to our staffs.
Taiga-drama
... A representative of the club "Beruo Team", and also a programmer for club "Kumax". Most sensible in all G&T Soft staffs.Main works: Collecting Manuscripts for "The Takao!!", printing and programming.
PA
CHINKO...An anime fanatic with lots of different names like Censored, Makorin and Censory. Many times mistaken as 12 to 15 years at worst, and between 16 to 18 years at best. Author of MMDM (Mini Mini Disk Magazine - small disk magazines published by many Japanese MSX users) called "PACHINKO Station". It's a fact that he is most subject to censorship among all of us (latter 75% half of his name - CH%N#O - stands for a Japanese obscene word for human genital ;)Main works: Making RPGs. Writes for anime corner in The Takao!!
Akiyan
... 1st year of high school (16 years old) at this moment. He has passed entrance examination. Author of MMDM "Nostalgia Magazine".Main works: He seems to be interested to take part in one of the corners of The Takao!!, but I could not have contact with him, so he could not intervene in this issue.
Sakuji
... He should have quitted as a staff, but returned when nobody notice. Seems to have dyed his hairs recently. In a single word, a simple fool. He was shedding tears of agony when his Panasonic WX failed to run LILO, and shed tears of joy when Beppin Disk (from Club Mesxes of Spain) ran.Main Works: Do foolish things by any means. Naturally, as his nature.
Nameplatelord-the-chokan
...A representative of this group. With nameplates all over his body, and sunglasses on, a stupendous stupid. A man who loves rocks and hard rocks throughly. A beginner player of guitars, and is studying keyboard instruments, drums and bass guitars. He wants to earn bread by music I future, but he cannot read the musical scores, damn unimaginable fool he is.Main Works: Illustration, planning, CGs, creating texts, photocopying manuscripts and bookbinding.
Takamichi
... He began as an Internet page maintainer. He was too much twisted, with his Eiken-Ikkyuu (1st Degree of English Proficiency, equivalent of 630 in TOEFL) ability, so no one could stop him turning into an International Division leader with arrays of Dutch/Spanish/Other accomplices. He will subscribe to 2nd issue.Main Works: Translation, taking off his clothes in MSX fairs, Internet.
Above are vague outline of all our staffs :-)
About the Coming and Going of Staffs...
MSX group G&T Soft has repeated many times of entrances and quittance of staffs up until now.
About SODAN was formerly a staff and Chief of Hakata Morning Association, from conflicts with me in opinion, and loss of his eagerness toward our activities, for our sorrow, he left. About Sakuji, He should have lost the willpower and quitted, but he forgot he left, and seems to have something he wants to do left, so by unknown reason he is back as a staff.
Speaking of quittance of present staffs, unless dire problem arises, is not expected. Dire problems are rarely expected to arise.
The quittance of SODAN makes up for absence of the chief of Hakata Morning Association, but we shall continue without any chief.
About
Hakata Morning Association the MSX Club...Firstly, a caution. This has got nothing to do with actual Hakata, a southern province of Japan, nor it has resemblance with hagata, Japanese for "dents caused by teeth".
This club was originally, a club which former chief, SODAN made. It was a meaningless gang which began from "Hakata Morning!" shouted by a Sa##esan (Japanese long-run anime for all families) character when he encountered an earthquake in SODAN's dream, but, when gradually it turned into a club promoted by G&T SOFT.
This club does recruit the members, but apparently no way to join. There is no merit at all in. Note that latest "The Takao!!; leaflet type" will be sent to you immediately after its release even if you want or not, however. (even outside Japan!)
Well, in single phrase, "a bunch of The Takao!! users" describes all.
Anyway, members are wanted. Everyone! Please join! I beg you! (I am desperate).
The Takao on Internet!!...
Shamelessly, we made homepage of The Takao!!
The manuscripts and illustration I made are HTMLized by Takamichi.
There are a relatively lot of infos about G&T SOFT, so even if you are not interested, please sympathize us and browse.
Actually, I, being a representative, have only seen The Takao!! homepages a few times (a fool I am).
Well, anyway, here is an address.
http://www.bekkkoame.ne.jp/i/takatemp/thetakao.htm
I think if you access here perhaps you can see.
Nameplatelord-the-chokan in
Danger!?...Big emergency. My younger brother stamped and crushed my sunglasses. I should pay money again! Nothing other than that.
I'm Hot on Line-arts!...
Yes. These days I am hot on line arts, line-only drawing on SR5 modes. It's really a fun!
Ridiculous Bits...
Nothing I mean..... Heh heh heh.
Nameplate-the-chokan Begins Part-time Jobs
At last, I began working. I am doing wiping floors, cashiers, and tidying up items in Family Mart, a chain 24-hours store every Japanese know of. When no customer is coming, I'm bored and by unknown reason I get tired. Help me. This is for money however. I should put myself together.

Editorial for Magazine version
Hello, this is Taiga. I did text layout and other works this time. The amount of text was fairly large and caused me lot of troubles, but I think the finish is what it should be. I want to continue publishing twisted fanzines from now. Eno. ("Awari" in Japanese, which is a perverted spelling of "Owari", equivalent of "The End" in English).
Editorial for HTML version
This is Takamichi. This may not appear in Tilburg Fair, printed out by Maarten (Mayhem) or Stephan (FONY), but I upload anyway.
Hope every global MSX users would understand our twisted behavior.
