I have an almost lifelong history of dreaming of being in that alternate universe. I still do. It'sone of the biggest reasons why me, my brothers and my friend want to travel to Japan in the future.

"ditch the mall crowd take a trip to Japan"

In the cut-off environment that I live in I like to have crushes on, and fantasies about, anime girls and not the corrupt, sexed-up, quasi-pornographic kind you see on some sites like photobucket (not that all their content is like this). I tend to stay away from the "glamorous", semi-nude kind ("posh fashion makes me wanna tweak, couldn't care less who's dating this week") and tend to lean towards the quiet, innocent, fully clad girls who I fall in love with because of their personality. ("save a princess, stick it to the man")

But not just that; when I was younger (nothing's really changed) I was thrilled by the adventures I dreamed of having, roaming those green sun-clad lands with my Pokémon or travelling in the now peaceful world of Konoha and its surroundings.

To find out that someone has managed to convey these yearning feelings into a song is unreal. I never thought it would happen. I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart; maybe I'm not crazy after all. I particularly like the lines "you can say that I'm misguided (as in you call me crazy as much as you like, I don't care if I yearn to be in another world), but just give me your hand, my mind's made up decided, listen to your heart you'll understand". This answers my lifelong wish to hear that I'm not the only dreamer in the world. I doubt anyone will comment on this, but if they do, press the Post Reply button and tell me that I'm wrong and that you're like me.
