Updates
Aug 19, 2006: Oh snap, haven't updated in like, a year. Yeah, this site isn't quite "static," but it's not entirely active, either. I do hope to do some touching up in the near future, however. Chapters 8, 9, 10, and 11 of Bleed have been uploaded to fanfiction, thus completing this particular work. The forums will also be shut down for an indefinite period due to inactivity. If anybody wants a Shitennou forum, tell me what you want and I'll see what I can do.Jun 23, 2005: Not a real update (because I suck, go me!), but I would like to announce that Peppermint Storm now has its own sub-forum! Please visit Path of Thorns Forums, join, post, have fun and get dirty. Spirit-hime promises to update someday.
Apr 30, 2005: Just a quick mini-update, Veve found that her newest layout has a few problems in IE, and sent me a zip of the modefied version. The fixed layout is now up, and all should be good.
Apr 29, 2005: Update, yay! Stoned! is updated, with no less than five guest strips (apparently people got sick of waiting and took matters into their own hands) and two really old strips that I dug up on my hard drive. It pains me that I sat on those so long. Also yet another terrific layout by Veve in the Downloads section. And... I KNOW there's more I need to post, but I'm not entirely sure what. Tell me, please! As for Ask the Shitennou, that's kind of on the backburner for a bit, so please don't ask about it. I can't even count how many letters are waiting to be taken care of. I do want to get them done, but I kind of think there are other parts of the site that take precedence.
Apr 4, 2005: Waa, almost a year since my last update! I know, I suck. Between waiting for the go-ahead to get the new domain (my partner in crime, AngelAnne, needed to acquire the necessary funds), finishing up the new layout, and moving everything, all while being overwhelmed by my second year of university, it's just generally been difficult to get things going. But finally, we are all moved to our new, hopefully permanent home. And... it's been so long that I really don't remember what all has been updated and what hasn't. >_< But I have put up these awesome new layouts that Veve of Digicreation donated to our Downloads section. I do also know that there are quite a few things that people have sent me and I haven't put up yet, including some guest strips for Stoned! and... some other stuff. I will be going through my inbox and putting these things up soon, but if they don't appear by the next update, please email me and remind me, because I would hate to overlook anything. As for the future of Peppermint Storm, I've got some big plans in mind for the summer, including a doujinshi database (featuring my entire collection, so it will be a good size) and a Seramyu section. So fear not, your patience shall be rewarded!
Apr 28, 2004: Long time since I've updated, I know. Part of the reason is that I'm wary about putting new stuff up when I know I just have to move it all anyway. The other reason is that school sucks. Enough said. Anyway, for fanfiction we've got a new fic by Angelike Riddle, a new fic by g_v, and two new chapters of Bleed by Evil Authoress, Inc. We seem to have an awful lot of Ami/Zoisite fics on the site now. Not that I'm complaining (they're all so lovely and well-written), but it would be nice to get more balance. There are two more members of Mint Julep adoptions, putting us up to a whopping ten members! There are also a few new links, and I've updated the FAQ a bit. As for news about the domain, we will be getting it up um... someday. Until then, expect updates to be slow. I don't want to put the site on hiatus (because I hate that panicked "what if the hiatus lasts FOREVER" thought that goes through people's minds), so let's just say that Peppy Storm WILL be running at full capacity again soon, and for now we're just slowing down its growth.
Mar 3, 2004: Well hey, isn't it always typical that as soon as you start a bunch of big projects, it all comes crashing down on your head? Here I was, getting ready to completely redo the image gallery, working on translating this doujinshi, writing a review of the musical "Starlights Ryuusei Densetsu," and even mulling over a new layout in the more distant future... when all of a sudden I discover that I've gone over my space quota.
That's right, Peppy Storm has outgrown its host. Again. Let me tell you, all of this moving around is really getting exhausting. It's a huge job that takes hours and hours to do, and when I'm finished I'm always sick of even looking at my website for weeks afterwards. I had hoped that I would never have to do it again, but it seems that I was mistaken.
However, things may be looking up. AngelAnne and I have been talking about the possibility of sharing a domain sometime in the near future. The idea is still tentative at best, and there's a whole bunch that we need to do before we'll actually go ahead with it (shop for the best prices, choose a domain name, figure out what we're actually doing, etc.) so if we do go for it, it won't be for a while yet. This would be great news for Peppy Storm, however, as we would finally have a place for it where we can expand as much as we want without worry of things like popups.
Until then, there is still this whole issue about the disk quota. I'm going to try and cut back on whatever is unnecessary. For that reason, I've decided to take down the Look-Alikes page. It has been sitting there, incomplete, for far too long, and I don't think it'll be greatly missed (at least not compared to other sections--I'd sooner let the rest of the site burn than take down the Fanart page, for instance). As for updates, I'll just have to be careful. All of the image-related updates I was planning will have to go on hold for a while--that means the Image Gallery, the doujinshi scanslations (though they will be translated in the meantime, and will be posted as soon as I am able), the Fanart, and even the Seramyu stuff I was planning on putting up. Text-based updates should (hopefully) be alright, so things like new links, and hopefully fanfictions, will still be posted. Let's hope so.
With regards to the doujinshi scanslations, Shirasame has graciously agreed to translate them (and is doing a mighty wonderful job at it, I might add). However, if anyone is still interested in helping out, it would be nice to have at least one more person who is fluent in Japanese to do the editing. Feel free to contact me if you're interested.
Now that that's out of the way... I've added some new links to the Links page, and there are two new members of Mint Julep Adoptions.
Feb 16, 2004: As mentioned on the index page, I'm looking for someone to help me with a scanslation project. I recently recieved a new doujinshi featuring Kunzite and Minako. While I do plan to post the images at some point, I thought it would be really nice if I could do something more with them. Unfortunately, my Japanese skills are seriously lacking, and I wouldn't at all trust myself to properly translate something like this. I can do all of the image editing myself, I just need someone to do the actual translating.
Jan 25, 2004: Just a smaller update today. One new After Dinner Mint by PsychicDreams, the final chapter of PsychicDreams' "Shitennou" fanfiction, and I've fixed the formatting on the sixth chapter of "Bleed".
Jan 17, 2004: Ah, I'm very sorry for the long delay in updates, but when you see all the new stuff, I think you'll understand why it took so long. First and foremost, all four of the Shitennou profiles have once again been rewitten (hopefully for the last time). They're way longer than they used to be (Kunzite's is a whopping seven pages long), so I don't think you'll find them lacking in detail. In Fanart, we've got new artwork by AngelAnne, Annie Moon, Bera, Dark Fire, Elruu, Kitty, Krista, Tata, and Zoisito-sama. In Fanfiction, we've got the last two installments of PsychicDreams' "Shitennou" series, "Days in Desire" and "Body and Soul"; the first chapter to Lady Fire's "As the Tears Come Down"; and the sixth chapter to Evil Authoress, Inc.'s "Bleed (Just To Know You're Alive)". *whew* I think that's all for now. There are also some other half-finished things that didn't make it to this update, but hopefully I'll get them up soon.
Dec 10, 2003: The last five chapters of Army of Immortals are up, as well as another oneshot by PsychicDreams. There is also a new wallpaper up in the Wallpapers section. I've also updated the About the Webmistress page. Slightly off-topic, but if anyone is interested, I now have a LiveJournal (just in case you feel like reading my daily rants, though I'm not sure why you would).
Dec 4, 2003: *whew* Five new chapters to Army of Immortals (gomen ne for taking so long PsychicDreams-san!) and one new chapter of Bleed. Today's the last day of classes and I have about a week of finals, so expect some real updates in the next few weeks!
Nov 15, 2003: One new chapter to Army of Immortals, one new chapter to Bleed, and one new fanfiction called Unworthy by Angelike Riddle. With regards to other updates, I know they've been few and far between, but university is keeping me pretty busy. The semester ends at the end of the month, so maybe I'll be able to get a bunch done over the holidays. Here's to hoping!
Nov 8, 2003: Three new chapters to Army of Immortals are up. Also, I think someone tried to AIM me today, but I happened to be typing at the time and somehow hit "don't accept" before I could even see the name. If you're the one who was trying to contact me, please try again, because I don't even know who it was.
Nov 1, 2003: I've added some really cool Live Journal icons that AngelAnne made to the Downloads area. Those things are so cool, almost makes me wish I had a Live Journal...
Oct 31, 2003: Wow. Okay, you people are enthusiastic buggers. Not that that's a bad thing, mind you! I love getting new additions to the site; it's certainly a whole lot better than never getting any at all (which I know from experience). We've got another new fanfiction called Always by Lady Fire and the first twelve chapters of PsychicDreams' Army of Immortals. Oh yes, and I made new link buttons to replace the old ugly ones.
Oct 27, 2003: Look at all these new fanfictions we're getting lately! In addition to the absolute awsomeness that is Picture and the wonderful conclusion to Hidden Truths that were posted in the last update, we now have another chapter of Bleed and a beautiful new one-shot by PsychicDreams called Bring Back My Happiness.
Oct 25, 2003: The rest of Hidden Truths is up, as well as a one-shot by AngelAnne called Picture.
Oct 18, 2003: Look, look! Someone actually submitted an article to After Dinner Mints! You actually get an opinion other than mine! How cool is that! *cough* Yes, one new article by PsychicDreams, and I added a new link to the links page. Oh yes, and we've found a picture of Asami Yuhka as Jadeite! Now tell me that isn't drool-worthy. Certainly much better than the frightening live-action guy in Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. (Note: I attempted to track down where this image originally came from, but was unable to. If you know who scanned this, please email me so I can credit them--or take it down, if they wish). Also, I've made two more link buttons for the site (because I was bored) and added a new page to the Info section, Play-by-Play.
Oct 7, 2003: There are four new chapters to Hidden Truths and one new chapter to Bleed on the Fanfiction page.
Sept 26, 2003: A new fanfic has been added to the Fanfiction archive. It's called "Bleed" and is co-authored by AngelAnne and yours truly. ^_~
Sept 22, 2003: I greatly apologize for my absence for the past month, but between leaving the country for three weeks, starting my first year of university, and moving the site to a new server, I've been a tad busy. But at last, we've moved! We're now hosted by a wonderful domain, and the best part is NO ADS! Thank you so much Kajouka-san! Anyway, I've added the lyric translations and a review of "By Heaven - Kami Nomi zo Shiru" to The Music Room. There's a new rant up in After Dinner Mints. The fanfic section has been reorganized so that it is in alphabetical order by author, and there are three new chapters for Hidden Truths (and I fixed the broken links on the other Hidden Truths chapters). There's a new wallpaper in the Downloads section. Oh yes, and there's a bunch of Ask The Shitennou letters that I still need to answer, but I haven't yet had time. ^^;
Aug 5, 2003: Alright, there's three new Ask The Shitennou letters up for your enjoyment, as well as three new chapters to the fanfiction Hidden Truths. I also got really bored one day and decided to make an About the Webmistress page. So if you're curious (and I don't know why you would be), feel free to check that out. The big update here, though, is that I've finally made a music section, complete with mp3s! It's called The Music Room, and can be found in the Downloads section of Fun. It includes a lot of the Shitennou-related songs from Seramyu, including the new just-released song, "By Heaven - Kami no Mizo Shiru". The lyrics to By Heaven aren't yet translated, but the oh-so-wonderful Cronochan is currenly working on that. Oh yeah, and I'm going down to Montana for a couple weeks, so this'll be my last update for a while (they don't have computers in them parts, doncherknow ^_~).
Aug 1, 2003: Konnichi wa! Yep, I'm back home and at the computer! And while my Japanese hasn't gotten any better, my English is a whole lot worse. :P Anyway, yes, update. There's two chapters to a great new fanfiction, Hidden Truths, by PsychicDreams; there's a new page of the Stoned! comic up; and one new member of Mint Julep adoptions. I also realize that there's two outstanding Ask The Shitennou letters to be answered, but we're lacking creative answers right now.
July 4, 2003: Well, as of 5:00 am tomorrow, I'm off to Japan for a whole two weeks! I most likely won't have much, if any, computer access there; I may be able to check my email occasionally, but odds are that I won't have any FTP access (and even if I do, it'll be in another language), so don't expect any updates for at least that long. To tide you over, AngelAnne has written a lovely little addition to the After Dinner Mints, entitled AngelAnne Runs the Webpage. PH34r.
There's also not one, but TWO new fanfictions up by AngelAnne, entitled The Dance and Taking Over Me. I swear, she might as well be running Peppy Storm with the amount of stuff she gives me for it. XD
July 2, 2003: Stoned! has been updated, there's one very pretty new fanart by K. Wyse, and a new letter at Ask The Shitennou has been answered.
June 25, 2003: Just put up a gorgeous new wallpaper made by AngelAnne.
June 24, 2003: Apparently Coolfreepages.com doesn't like txt files, because the formatting was lost in all of the fanfics that were uploaded as txt files. I've now replaced all of them with html versions, so that they're actually readable.
June 21, 2003: At last, there is a new page of the comic up at Stoned! Sorry for the wait, minna. I know you were all just dying to find out what happened to our bishielicious rocks next. ^_~ There is also a new fanfiction by Crystal Dragonfly.
June 20, 2003: Alright, now that I've regained some sense of sanity, I can make this a real update. As you can see, Peppy Storm has been moved onto Coolfreepages.com (and remember, it's spelled C-O-M... long story, don't ask). Now hopefully you guys won't be terrorized by half as many popups (I admit that the full-screen delayed popup is annoying, but I hope it doesn't cause nearly as many crashes as Tripod's three popups per page did). I now also have more than twice as much space as Tripod offered, which means that I can expand certain areas of the site without worrying about being shut down. Coolfreepages is also a faster server, and there is no bandwidth limit (not that it was much of a problem before--Peppy Storm only went over the limit once, but that was one more time than I needed). So, I apologise for the long delay in updates, but I think that it's well worth it. As you can see, the new layout, Greyscale Sakura, features fanart by the ever-talented AngelAnne, which she was commissioned for in exchange for some goodies for her own website, Outerspace (thus far I've only payed her with a brush set, though I plan to make her at least one wallpaper and maybe a fanfic in the future; personally, I think I got the better end of the deal ^_~). Yesterday I had my wisdom teeth removed, so I really don't have much to do other than work more on the site, but don't expect anything intellegent to come out of my mouth for the next few days. Eating mushed up Jello with a baby spoon tends to lower your IQ a few notches. ^^;
That's all for now. Be sure to let me know if you see any problems or weird quirks on the new site. Feel free to give me feedback on how you like (or dislike) it. ^_^
June 15, 2003: My friends, I have just spend the last seven hours and twenty-two minutes moving Peppy Storm onto its new server. Before that, I spent many more hours, also moving Peppy Storm onto its new server. Right now my brain is so frazzled and my nerves so shot, I only pray that I'll be able to stay awake through my Japanese test tomorrow. I shall now retreat to my closet and count bishies leaping over fences, after I study for said test. I'll discuss the new aspects of the site more once my brain is turned on again.
May 12, 2003: Alright, the results for the Fanfic contest are finally up! Again, I apologise for the lack of updates, but it's getting close to the end of the school year, I'm graduating in two weeks, yadda yadda. And I really have been working on stuff for Peppy Storm, it's just stuff that isn't exactly finished yet, thus I can't actually post it on the site. Anyway, enough blathering. Go read some fics. Oh yeah, and a new page of the comic.
Apr 29, 2003: Apologies for lack of updates, I've been slightly busy. Anyway, this is not so much an update, as it is news. This comes from the Solar Miracle Make-Up! mailing list, and was translated by Marty of Sera-myu.org. The cast list for the latest Seramyu includes the following:
Queen Beryl: Akiko Miyazawa (former Elizabeth Bathory)
Kunzite: Miki Kawasaki (former Kaolinite)
Nephrite: Shuusuke Yoda (former Barako Hoshino)
Zoycite: Kaname Aoki (former Professor Tomoe)
Jedaite: Yuhka Asami (former Sailor Neptune)
This means two things. One, that the Shitennou are making their third musical appearance (and we pray it'll go over better than the last time). Two, that two of the four Shitennou (Kunzite and Jadeite) are played by women. This may or may not be a bad thing. Those who know a bit about Seramyu probably remember Ono Hikari, who played Hawkseye, Taiki, and Prince Demando, respectively. All I can say is that Demando was never so gorgeous in the anime. Even so, I'm not so sure that Yuhka and Miki are anything like Ono. So whether this turns into something worth watching or another Eien Densetsu, only time will tell. (Thanks AngelAnne for the heads up!)
Apr 17, 2003: New comic, featuring a special guest! (man, I'm evil...)
Apr 10, 2003: New webcomic page up. I apologise for the "Last updated" thing on the main page being wonky, but Tripod has not been cooperating lately.
Apr 9, 2003: I've reorganized the fanart section and added two new fanarts by Soylent Green and five new ones by JA. Also, there is a new page up at on the webcomic.
Apr 2, 2003: New page up on the webcomic, and edited the links page. And no, yesterday's update was not an April Fool's joke. ^_~
Apr 1, 2003: Peppermint Storm has officially lowered its IQ level. That's right, the Shitennou are getting Stoned!
Mar 31, 2003: ...As well as a fanfic that should've been uploaded two days ago! Gah, sumimasen Ivy-san. I've got the memory of a brick. -_-;; Everyone go read Ivy Valentine's cute fic, Jadeite's Trick.
Mar 29, 2003: Alrighty. We've got one new Ask The Shitennou letter, two new fanarts by AngelAnne, one new wallpaper (now in two sizes! oooooooh), and the Fun section now includes a Shitennou Quiz. Enjoy!
Mar 20, 2003: Being that there are zero entries for the contest, I've decided to move the deadline back another month. As depressing as it is to know how pathetic it is to have no entries at all, I can't help but laugh a little bit. Mostly at myself, of course, but at the situation as well. I was rather scared of trying to have a contest for just this reason: I was sure that I would not get any entries. This site, as much as I love it, really isn't all that great, nor is it all that well-known. But I decided to put it in the polls, and see what the visitors thought. Out of 63 voters, 18 people said that they would participate in a contest. I was sure that very few of those voters were serious, but I thought, "if just five of those people submitted something, then it would be worth it". But, the five didn't come. I think we can learn something from this. Don't depend on polls. ^^; Alright, I'm done with my sob story now. I do have some things to add to the site, and I'll hopefully get them up this week sometime.
Mar 7, 2003: Just wanted to let everyone know that the honor of being the first to adopt a Mint Julep sprite goes to Dancing Moon! ^^
Mar 4, 2003: You probably think I've been sitting on my butt for the past month. In fact, you probably figure that I've already gone back on my promise to work on Peppy Storm more often. This is far from the truth. As of this moment, I have put approximately 38 hours worth of work into this site since my last update. Where is the fruit of all this labor, you ask? Why not head on down to the Fun section and check out Peppy Storm's all-new Shitennou adoption center, Mint Julep? While you're at it, there is also a great new article on Seramyu written by AngelAnne up at After Dinner Mints, as well as a new Ask The Shitennou.
Feb 5, 2003: Exciting news! Today my vice principal has just approved Peppermint Storm for a Special Project. What that means is that I get 10 high school credits (the normal amount for each class is 5) if I put 250 hours worth of work into Peppy Storm. What that means to you guys is that in the name of education, you'll be getting more Shitennou goodness. XD I'll be having to work my butt off to meet the requirements, but I'm sure the guys would be more than happy to stand behind my computer chair with a whip.
Feb 2, 2003: As you've probably noticed on the main page, Peppy Storm has finally gone through with having a contest. I wouldn't leave you guys hanging. ^_~ There are also two new pages up in the Information section: the Dark Kingdom and the Golden Kingdom.
Jan 21, 2003: New fanart by AngelAnne is up. It was actually supposed to go up about a week ago, but, well, I'm a procrastinating loser. So yeah.
Jan 19, 2003: Alright, I just spent my whole weekend getting all six of those Ask The Shitennou letters up, so I hope you guys enjoy them. (Who am I kidding; half the work was done by AngelAnne, as usual. She's the actual "creative" one around here.) I also made pretty little title images for the profiles pages in an effort to dodge studying, which is something I should actually be doing right at this moment.
Jan 11, 2003: Welcome to the year of the 3v1l L33t. If you don't know what I'm talking about, don't stress about it. ^_~ I'm coming up to my huge Mega Gundam Deathscyth Finals pretty soon, so don't expect too many updates in the next few weeks. I'll be too busy ripping my hair out. On that cheerful note, there is one new wallpaper up, and I've reformatted the Wallpaper section because, well, I felt like it.
Dec 30, 2002: Yeah, yeah, so it's been like, a century since I've updated and I've got a million Ask The Shitennou letters just waiting to be answered. Well guess what. I haven't done them yet! That's because I've been busy revising the Mythology page (again) and making thumbnails for the Fanart page (so you can all stop complaining now ^_~). There's also one new fanart by AngelAnne up. I'll get those answers done sometime. Maybe.
Dec 07, 2002: New Ask The Shitennou letter. It's quite, um, interesting.
Nov 22, 2002: Just wanted to say that there's a new Ask The Shitennou letter up. Hmm... the poll results are becoming interesting...
Nov 11, 2002: I'd just like to say that as of yesterday, Peppy Storm has over 3000 hits! W00T! In honor of this, the wonderfully talented AngelAnne has made me a neat little gift art. Both of her gift arts have also been added to the fanart section. Thanks A-chan!
Nov 5, 2002: Just a small update, the Polls have been changed. One of the questions is particularly important to the future of Peppy Storm, so be sure to vote! With regards to the last questions, I find it interesting that only one person from Anipike voted, even though we recieve the most hits from it. Just goes to show that hits do not necissarily mean loyal visitors. ^^
Nov 2, 2002: W00T! Three new Ask The Shitennou letters, meaning we're all caught up! Also, Chapter 5 of AngelAnne's wonderful Tankyuu is up!
Oct 25, 2002: *blush* Uh...hiya. Yeah, I know. I'm really really late. But! That's not to say I've been doing nothing! I was actually waiting for those bishounen to hurry up and finish all of the Ask The Shitennou questions. Well guess what? The good news is that five letters have been answered. The bad is that two are left. Rather than make you wait forever, I thought it would be best to post what they have now and do the rest later. Also, a necissary update has been made to the Information section: info about Metallia, Beryl, Endymion, and Danburite have all been gathered into what has been appropriately named The Peanut Gallery. Last but not least, there is one new article in After Dinner Mints by yours truly (who else?).
Sept 27, 2002: Where have I been, you ask? You really want to know? Well, a certain someone whose name starts with a J and ends with an adeite decided to give me a tour of the dungeons. Do you have any idea how big those things are? I was lost for days! So at the moment, my one and only update is a new chapter of Charlie Chaplin 2's History. I heard from the guys that all you people who sent in Ask The Shitennou questions were promised replies by the end of this week, but apparently they're "too busy" to answer your questions just yet. All I want to know is what could a bunch of rocks possibly be busy doing?
Sept 7, 2002: School has started, ugh. I can see now that senior year is gonna suck. It's the first week and already I have way more homework than I'm used to. In other words, updates may be sporadic at times. However, we did get a new Ask The Shitennou! Check it out, four submissions! Count 'em, F-O-U-R!!! Also, one new addition to the Non-Canon Quotes.
Aug 30, 2002: Made a new Jadeite/Mars wallpaper, also added one new link.
Aug 29, 2002: A new list of questions are up at Ask the Shitennou, one new addition to the Non-Canon Quotes, and two new links.
Aug 11, 2002: At last, the Look Alikes page is up! It only has Kunzite and Jadeite so far, but the other two will be up eventually. It may take a while to get the rest up, as I am currently not on my own computer, and thus don't have access to a decent graphics program for making the images. Feel free to send in any look alikes you have sighted, but keep in mind that it will take me a while to get them posted.
Aug 10, 2002: Alright, the mob has spoken. You've finally worn me down and convinced me to write a new addition to After Dinner Mints. There are new questions on the Polls page, and the final results of last month's polls have been displayed. There are also a few new quotes in the Non-Canon Quotes. The general consensus around here is that my goal in life is to be severely beaten and hung by my toes from the nearest tree. Whether they mean that the the one who will be doing the beating is the Shitennou or the fangirls is up to speculation. ^_^;;
Aug 7, 2002: I know it seems like not much is happening but believe it or not I really am working on a bunch of stuff, I just haven't gotten it all up yet. New page over in the Fun section. Quotes! It's interesting, to say the least. ^^;
Jul 30, 2002: Got off my butt and did some new research on the minerals, so the Mineral page has been added to, most importantly with information on the origin of the name "zoisite".
Jul 24, 2002: I've been going through some personal stuff lately, so sorry for the lack of updates. Chapter 1 of History is now up in the fanfiction section.
Jul 18, 2002: I have revised the article about the Shitennou's names. I didn't realize it would stir up so much controversy. Everyone who was not satisfied with the last version please go read this one (that goes for you too Lita-chan ^_~). I've also changed the After Dinner Mints area around a bit in hopes that it will inspire people into sending stuff in *hint, hint*. One new link and one new clique (Urban Redneck...Kunzite shall now proceed to slaughter me...) have also been added. And I really will have at least part of the Look Alikes page up someday, so be patient with me. ^_^;;
Jul 12, 2002: Alrighty, so there's a new Ask The Shitennou up. And look what AngelAnne (you know, the one responsible for all the best parts of the site) made me! Domo arigato A-chan! Look at that, Kunzy finally got himself some votes! Hurray, now maybe he'll stop chasing me around with a salad fork!
Jul 6, 2002: This is Kunzite, just letting everyone know that our email address for Ask The Shitennou has been changed to ask_the_shitennou@the-fastest.net. I had to restrain Jeddy from signing up for a Beer.com email address. Neph liked "the-fastest", something about connotations. I'm not going to ask. Oh yes, and S-hime is gone today, being that it's her birthday. I guess she can have a day off.
Jul 5, 2002: Got a wonderful new fic by Charlie Chaplin 2 up. It's only the prologue so far, but it's definitely worth the read. Also got three really cool new link buttons made by AngelAnne. Anyone who has linked Peppy Storm before might wanna switch over to her buttons, they're really pretty! And we have added a new element to the After Dinner Mints: Top Ten lists! Oh the insanity. Just a minor note, Kunkun still has no votes...
Jun 30, 2002: Just thought this would be a good time to point out that as of today, Peppy Storm has had over 1000 hits! W00t!
Jun 28, 2002: Made some mild updates (mostly proofreading) to the profiles. Since they were the first pages I wrote, they had some mistakes in them that I failed to catch.
Jun 25, 2002: Just a minor update, I finally figured out that Kunkun is from the Middle Eastern division of the Dark Kingdom. I would have asked him myself, but last time I did so he made an ecchi comment about wanting to know where he lived. So I left it at that. ^^; Also, Kunkun seems to be losing for most popular Shitennou so far (i.e. no one's voting for him...). I think I'll avoid him a while; I'd rather not get my head chopped off today. XD
Jun 24, 2002: Hey look, today is the 2 year anniversary for my crapola RPG site. Hehe go figure, I kinda forgot. ^^; Anyway, we have one lovely new fanart by Jessica (actually, it was supposed to go up a long time ago but I somehow forgot about it and it's been sitting around on my computer for months). Also some new doujinshi images and some new links. I have started up a Polls page in the Fun section, so I'd love to get some feedback on it. Quick, go take 'em! Defend your favorite bishie for the title of the most popular Shitennou!
Jun 21, 2002: I wrote a rant! Wai! Finally, After Dinner Mints has more to it than complete randomness. Maybe someday it'll have contributions of other people as well. ^_^;
Jun 18, 2002: New fanfics: Magic Moment by yours truly. I'm really proud of this one; could very well be one of my best fics ever (probably is). Kunzite doesn't think much of it, but then he doesn't really think much of anything I do. ^_^; Also new chapter to AngelAnne's wonderful fic, Tankyuu! It's hilarious as ever, folks.
Jun 17, 2002: Two new fanarts by Charisse Jade Ling! W00t!
Jun 12, 2002: We've got two new wallpapers, including a lovely one by Rosey-san. There is also a new series of questions by Pinky up in Ask The Shitennou. For anyone who hasn't been checking up on the blog, it has been updated a few times independantly of the rest of the site (and will continue to function independantly of the rest of Peppy Storm, just because of the nature of blogs).
Jun 2, 2002: It has finally happened. Lord knows I've tried to stop it. But there was just no getting around it. The Shitennou have started a blog. God help us all. If you want to view the insanity, check it out in the Fun section. They asked (see: bribed) me to set it up for them, but being that I know nothing about blogs, I have to say that it exists entirely because of my wonderful friends, Tsukai and AngelAnne. Arigato Stix-tachi!
May 30, 2002: *stumbles out of closet, looking rather disheveled* You know, you'd be amazed at how bored one gets when locked in the closet for an extended period of time. And while I'm positive I have those moth-worn coats convinced that I really am Henry VIII, I actually got some updates done in there! The Rants section has been renamed "After Dinner Mints" (arigato Anne-chan!) and has a new piece of randomness to accompany the lonely one that has been sitting there for the longest time. We also finally have our first submission for Ask The Shitennou! Look what else! Shitennou Avatars! Oh joy! I've added some stuff to the Myths page and moved the Japanese Terminology page to the Info section where it belongs. I'm also working on some other stuff that will definitely be a fun addition to Peppy Storm, so check back in the future!
Apr 18, 2002: Uh... *ahem* hi. Jadeite here. S-hime seems to have gone missing, actually. When Zoi found out that she'd signed PS up for the Androgynous Anime Characters Anonymous webring, he proceeded to chase her around the palace with a very large hammer. When we finally found him, he was completely drunk and nearly passed out on the floor, and the only indication he would give about where our webmistress may be was "I locked her in the closet." Being that there are over 100 rooms in this place, it might be a while before we actually find her. XD
Mar 10, 2002: Added a new section: Ask The Shitennou! Everyone go ask them questions, 'cause Neph is scary when he gets bored. Also added new fanfic by Mars, Fall of the Phoenix.
Feb 26, 2002: Added a Links page and a Song Lyrics section with the lyrics to Saikyou no Couple Gundan, Yami koso Utsukushii, and Tenkuu no Utage.
Feb 16, 2002: Finally added a little webcounter. W00t!
Feb 13, 2002: Made changes to the FAQ and added the Common Myths section. Also (finally!) added a debate to the rants section.
Feb 11, 2002: Tankyuu chapter 3 added to fanfic section.
Feb 10, 2002: Made changes to Danburite's page. Arigato Kotono-san for correcting me on how Kaitou Ace died. ^^
Feb 8, 2002: Fanart by AngelAnne added. Finally got off my butt and made an FAQ and link banners page.
Jan 14, 2002: Most sections are up. Tankyuu chapters 1 and 2 added to Fanfic section, several new fanarts added to Fanart section.
