When you hear the word “anime”, name the first food that comes to your mind. For me it’s Ichiraku Ramen and Meat on the Bone.

Well, it's that time of season again. The season where we give and receive in accordance, a season where good will between neighbors is exhibited in, what sadly can be, rare occasions. But nonetheless, we get to enjoy this season, while not many others get to. That's why we should consider ourselves blessed. Truly blessed to be in the position to enjoy ourselves, because not everyone can. I can name a few places and people who can't. The wars between Ukraine and Russia, the wars between Israel and Palestine, it just seems like there's so much division in the world. Sometimes we forget what this season is supposed to be about in the first place. Love. Love is the reason for the season. And while perhaps this Christmas wish perhaps seems unlikely, it is my hope that peace can resume. But not just in the above mentioned nations. I know that wars and strife and disease and famine exist all across the world unreported, and so my prayer is that these are resolved too. And I hope that you all will join me. Pray for peace. Pray for cures and treatments, and for aid to those who just... really need it right now. In so much as God has blessed us with excess, let us remember those who have nothing and offer our prayers that they will be helped. In so much as God has loved us, let us love others. After all, our Lord knows what it's like to be poor. To have nothing. He set aside everything to be born into this world in a stable. Jesus was one of the few who could say "Yes, I was raised in a barn". He lived by humble means and died like a criminal just for us. He had everything and we had nothing. So he put on human flesh and had nothing, so we could have everything. That's love, and that's the meaning of Christmas. That God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Love, forgiveness and bleessings. If we ourselves find ourselves in the position to at the very least give someone the first two of the previous mentioned three things, then we can consider it paying it forward. You all are very nice and kind users, and I hope and pray that each of you this Christmas season get a special moment with God. He loves you, and so do I.

Merry Christmas, Weebipedians! I love y'all so much and I am so blessed to know y'all! God bless you all!

Nothing much just sharing some convention stuff

Imagine being a danganronpa cosplayer and dating two other danganronpa cosplayers....

Today's Anime Day.

Happy Easter, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful day! For so many, this is a day with family and the enjoyment of fun and games, and as it should be. Everyday is a day for this, but it is nice to set special days aside for this. And there is no better family to be a part of than God's family. We were blessed 2000 years ago with the arrival of Jesus, God in human flesh. He lived with us, died upon a cross and rose from the grave in three days. It is important for us to remember this, because it was his shedding of blood that made us blood relatives and children of God, so that we know, when we accept him, that we always have a family that we can fall back on. And in this day and age, so many people are lonely and seeking someone to love them. It is brotherhood we all seek, and a kind hand to hold. Jesus offers us this hand. Our relationship with God is more than a King to Servants, and it is more than just a single mortal to an unfeeling god. Our relationship is closer to family. For if a person is so willing to live and die for us, to take our punishment for himself, is that not love? A love all encompassing that doesn't care what you've done in the past. All that love asks in the end is to be accepted. Merely the acception of Jesus is all it takes to ensure eternal safety in his hands. It seems so elementary. Every day is the perfect day to accept that love, but today is our greatest reminder of what he came here to do.

20 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

2 Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Jesus' death and resurrection is what gives this day importance. It's why we observe it. In the end, Jesus' life was about love. He accepted those that society cast out. He accepted the harlots and the tax collectors. And in the era of the Bible, the tax collectors were notorious for taking more taxes out on people than was legal and pocketing the rest for themselves. A form of fraud. Zacchaeus (As many of you know, the one that climbed a sycamore tree) was one of these. Jesus was friends with them all.

8 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.

2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

In the above Chapter, Jesus was actually himself counted as one without sin. The Bible states this. And yet he, despite being the one capable of casting the first stone, did not. Instead he forgave her. Our Lord's teachings were based upon love. The greatest commandments were very simple ones upon which the Lord says that the entirety of the law hangs. "Love The Lord thy God with all of your heart, soul, mind and strength" How do we love God? The Bible says we "Keep his commandments". And what is the other commandment that Jesus said was like unto the first? To love our neighbors as ourselves. In loving others, we follow The Lord's words and love God. The relationship between man and God is a simple one. If you have not yet accepted Jesus as your personal savior, today is a perfect day for it. Any day is, but on this day we recognize his resurrection. The Bible says all we must do is confess his name and believe in our hearts that God has raised him from the dead. A simple prayer is literally all it takes to accept this gift. You can pray your own, or you can follow something similar to what is below. In the end, what matters is your intent when you pray.

"Dear Lord. I come before you to ask your forgiveness of my sins. I know it is impossible for me to keep your law and be sinless. I have fallen short of your glory and have sinned against you. But Jesus has died on the cross to forgive these sins. You know we are incapable of living righteous lives, and as such, sent your Son, Jesus, to pay the debt. I accept what he did. I believe he is who the Bible said he is, and I ask that you forgive me of my sins and save me just as I know you want to. I accept it. Thank you for what you've done for me. In the Name of the Lord Jesus I pray, Amen."

If you prayed that prayer, or something in your own words accepting Jesus, then I am glad to tell you, you've just stepped into a new family. One of which I am glad to call you my brother or sister. This day is a day for miracles, and a day where love is important. All of us here at the Weebipedia love you all so much, and we hope you all have a wonderful Easter!

Let's get to voting!

This was originally going to be on the JJBA wiki, but figured perhaps we can give more freedom of choice for what series to draw....

So,

Everyone's welcome to join, and this month's theme is,

"Winter Holidays"

(whether that be something related to Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year's, or any other December holiday)

Rules:

• Characters/subjects within your art submission should be from Japanese media (e.g. anime, manga, videogames, etc).

• No plagiarism. No traced art. No NSFW. Some level of effort above "stick figures" please.

• No criticism until the voting page is released. If any of the artists request no criticism be given to their art, please respect that. If you do give criticism, it should be helpful/suggestive (e.g. there's a difference between "ew why's the foot look like that" and "the foot is a bit too flat, maybe try shaping it more like a wedge of cheese?").

• To properly submit your art: Please post it in the comments section of this post. If you make it as a separate post, please put the link in the comments of this post.

• Failure to comply to these rules, will result in a warning. Further infractions will result in removal of your submission, and blacklisting (meaning you will be prohibited from joining any other events hosted by myself).

DUE DATE FOR SUBMISSIONS: December 29th. Voting post will be made the same day.

There will be no extension of the deadline this year, unfortunately, as we'd like the winner to be announced in the 'New Year's Eve Megapost on the JJBA wiki (a link to that, will be posted here on this wiki as well).

Any questions, please ask!
