Tofugu Comments: Happy Birthday, Tofugu!

  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    Aw, I like my Tofugu cake. It looks so proud.

    Also, I'm stoked for the ebook. Hustle, Ko, hustle!

    Also also, thanks again to all our readers! We ♥ you guys.

    I can dig fish cake. Mmmm, scaly.
  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    I made fishcake once in a fishcake factory in Japan.

    It was unpleasant and smelly.
  • Viet · 1 year ago
    So... Did you write the ebook on your iPhone?
  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    I wish I had done classy b&w like you, Viet.
  • Viet · 1 year ago
    Thanks.. I had to cover up my bad complexion from staying up 72+ hours :(
  • koichi · 1 year ago
    ha, that would be something, now wouldn't it?

    トフグおめでとうございます!I've been lagging on my comments lately, trying to get some personal things out of the way so I can concentrate on some new things for this summer. I also need to catch up on some of the articles, but thats neither here nor there. Anyways, keep up the good work guys. Always appreciated everything you guys posted on the site.

    @Viet
    Can't wait to see what kind of articles you have in store for us for the summer. Too bad your video was cut off. Sorry, but I kind of laughed when that happened because its sort of similar to the editing style that Koichi uses for his other vlogs. Also, what kind of poster is that on your wall? Reminds me of those Magic Eye books I use to stare at when I would go to the dentist as a kid.

    @Koichi
    Snazzy looking 'Thank you' cards, looks like the gift card envelopes they use for the iTunes gift cards. As for the hair, I can no longer spike it because its too long [Gatsby FTW]. Maybe I should shave it like you did, it is summer (-_-). I should really update my avatar.

    @Erin
    *Thumbs Up* Care for some musubi? Till this day, I still use your fashion article as a reference to what clothing I buy in the stores.

    Again, congrats guys!
    Keep Supporting Tofugu!

    oh no! The spikes are gone!
  • Viet · 1 year ago
    The poster are some pictures me and a few friends have taken within the last year. Pretty much just pics of life. I used Google's Picasa to generate the poster and a 42" plotter to do the poster job. Thankfully I get free printing at work because it costs a lot of money to make one :)
  • クリス · 1 year ago
    Neat, I have a similar program for my mac for making mosaics, MacOSaiX. I wish I had free printing. I just made a 16x20 family portrait, cast me about $25. It wasn't even printed on glossy paper. [stupid Kinkos]

    Keep up the great work, everything is so amazing,interesting! I've always wanted to do fanart for you guys >.< lol
  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    We love some fanart, haha. I was rooting for your design in the Nara contest.
  • 8Dhi · 1 year ago
    >.< Thanks! Will definitely send some your way 8D

    Woohoo!
  • Djarno · 1 year ago
    I hate being not illiterate. All this reading and writing. Look, I'm doing it right now. I wonder if someone could deliberately unliterate himself. If didn't know English it would be a lot easier to learn Japanese, focusing on everything can say rather than everything I can't.
  • Djarno · 1 year ago
    Maybe I* shouldn't brag about my literacy if I* am going to be conspicuously leaving out personal pronouns as I* did in the above comment, which I* wrote. I* think personal pronouns are overrated anyway but I* feel the need to show that I* can use I* correctly. I*.
  • oo0speed0oo · 1 year ago
    happy birthday! I've only been here a couple of weeks, but all you guys rock!
  • Mizuu · 1 year ago
    おめでとう!
    I always thought it has been longer, but yeah, I hope you'll live "banzai" more ;)
  • Mr Wind Up Bird · 1 year ago
    Happy birthday tofugu!!!! only came here a week or two ago, but yay! keep up the good work!
  • zattsu-ooru · 1 year ago
    Is there any Tofugujin who doesn't like the opening scene of this?
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LopEnuO3c4M

    Reminds me.
  • zattsu-ooru · 1 year ago
    Ozu Yasujirou. That's what it reminds me.
  • DeeLeigh · 1 year ago
    おめでとう!
    Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday! Did you get everything you wanted?!?!

    Wow! I can't believe Tofugu is a year old! Where does the time go?!? It seems like yesterday that I stumbled upon this incredibly awesome site. Thank you Koichi, Erin, and Viet for all the hard work you do to make Tofugu what it is! DON'T U EVER STOP! (*Sorry...it's WAY past my bedtime...)
  • ghindo · 1 year ago
    Happy birthday, guys!

    I'm looking forward to the store (especially the free stuff). Please tell me y'all have t-shirts in the works. Who needs Threadless when you've got the Tofugu fish adorning your chest?
  • WOTDsctoo · 1 year ago
    A tofugu t-shirt would make my week!
  • Tofugu_Erin · 1 year ago
    We're working on it. It's kind of nerve-wracking.

    Koichi has such high standards ;_;
  • ch1ka · 1 year ago
    Wow, a tofugu t-shirt would be sooo cool! i never thought about that
    well looking forward to whatever you guys come up with!
  • keikan16 · 1 year ago
    Happy Birthday Tofugu you have a great thing going here.
  • keikan16 · 1 year ago
    Oh, by the way Ano Keeki wa oishii soo desu
  • WOTDsctoo · 1 year ago
    お誕生日おめでとう!!!
    Keep up the good work you three! Totally looking forward to the new stuff.

    And haha, wow, thanks for the mention. In case anyone is wondering it's pronounced:
    W: word O: of T: the D: day
    then sctoo is like the sk- sound in scallop and then 2. So in total:
    word of the day: sk2, or WOTDsctoo.

    Oooor, woerlkjhsd is fine too. XD

    Anyway, congrats again you guys!
  • yonasu · 1 year ago
    誕生日おめでとう!!!!

    I just want to say thank you for everything, and keep up the good work!
  • Rimka · 1 year ago
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOGUGU! I definitely look forward to many more years (hopefully) of entertaining stories from all of you guys! I think this is the first time I've seen Erin in one of these videos too? >> What a pleasant surprise! (If not I really should lurk more XD) Thank you guys for all of the great articles and the fantastic work! Keep it up! :D
  • Tonio · 1 year ago
    I don't comment much (actually I think i this is my first comment ^^;), but I really wanna say thanks for the great articles!
    お誕生日おめでとうございます!いつも面白くて勉強になる!これからもがんばって下さい!
    日本語の勉強もがんばって下さい。多分lang-8で会うかもしれません。
  • Chester_King · 1 year ago
    ! Feliz cumpleanos !

    This is funny for Spanish speakers....... find one and they'll tell you why.

  • mmnessa · 1 year ago
    Oh gosh don't even mention it. I love tofugu and I'm probably the only Canadian Spanish speaking redhead in the top commenters section- No wait, I am ^_^. Keep up the good work, I'm always lookin forward to your wonky articles and videos.
  • emiko · 1 year ago
    Happy Birthday! . . . I'm about to start Japanese classes this summer, so when I found tofugu I felt really happy . . . I'm so excited! . . . Keep up the good work!
  • ch1ka · 1 year ago
    Happy Birthday!
    Thank you for everything you three have done so far. Im really looking forward to what you have planned for the future (like the store - t-shirts!... little figurines of you three... =O...now that would be weird and amazing!)

    I think everyone is going to be brushing up on their japanese this summer, so i'm glad we have a site like this supporting us!

    I think this says it all...

  • Chimiko · 1 year ago
    For some odd reason, Koichi's hair reminds me of Keitaro from Love Hina.... O_o;;.
  • frychiko · 1 year ago
    お誕生日おめでとう!

    Wow, didn't realise tofugu was less than a year old! Glad to see the pace has picked up a bit too! I've really enjoyed everything so far especially the videos.
  • M Ridhwan · 1 year ago
    Congratulations on your 1st birthday Tofugu! Although it does feels a bit weird congratulating a website as I would congratulate a person.

    Anyway, keep up the good work guys! *thumbs up*
  • lulu · 1 year ago

    Y'know... I've always wanted a stuffed tofugu...
    =] "Stuff cool people wear", eh? Well, I guess you would know better than us, Koichi!
    Looking forward to all the stuff coming up!
