Well, assuming this is all real, then are my OCs real? Is Kuro'o Hazama / Dr. Black Jack real? What about :hyoIs it real too?
Huh.....
If you're telling the truth:Interesting!
If not: Just because this is a Tezuka fansite doesn't mean all the fans believe that Astro Boy is real.
I like Tezuka's stories a lot. I read Black Jack and Hi no Tori (The Phoenix) more often than I read Astro Boy now though.Plus I'm currently busy with schoolwork so you'll rarely see me on the site for at least half an year.
"Kuo-Yi" wrote:In that case (I'm not sure whether to believe you or not. But assuming that you're telling the truth) what types of "fictional characters" are real and which are not?
I'm a writer and reader of realistic fiction, and occasionally minor sci-fi or fantasy, but I prefer stories that tell the meaning of life and love. My favorite series is Osamu Tezuka's Black Jack, and my favorite animatedmovie is Spirited Away by Hayao Miyazaki. His newest movie, The Wind Rises, about the World War, is great, too. As for Hollywood movies, I don't like most of them. I prefer Japanese stuff. But that's mostly because I am Asian, I suppose. I live in Taipei.
I am working on a fanfiction for Black Jack, and an original series I intend to publish, about a female tutor who travels between Japan and Taiwan to teach all sorts of students. The stories talk a lot about society issues but have funny or heartwarming sides as well.
Or at least, that's the type of story I'm working on. I hope it'll come out just fine.
I like the Astro Boy series and I'm fond of the characters, but out of the bunch I like Uran the best now. She's very cute and funny.

(Personally, although I have a crush on the character Black Jack, I'm hoping that Tezuka created him on his own. I view him as a fictional character. As for my characters, I really hope they are my own, to be honest.)

How will you know you have had a projection and not a dream? Get a playing card, don't look at it. Place it face up on your highest shelf without seeing what it is. Once you have projected, float up and look at the card. Remember what you saw. When you awake, go get the card at look at it. Is it what you saw? Then you successfully left your body.

A similar experiment is done in some hospitals. There has been for a long time people who said they had out of body experience after grave accidents. Some doctors decided that it was a good idea to put an object that had nothing to do in a hospital in a box (such as a teddy bear, or a beer bottle), and put the box on a shelf where it is not very easy to see nor very accessible. Anyone who could tell what was inside the box without the seal being removed would prove they had had a real out of body experience. So far it never happened (to my knowledge).
So you are proposing something that can be done at home. I'll be honest with you, I don't believe in supernatural, and I don't believe you are telling the truth. However I am a scientific by nature and I will definitely try this experiment, but not the way you propose. The way you propose it, you can get a positive result by plain luck. See it that way: there are 52 cards in a game, so you have 1 chance out of 52 to guess the card. That's not a lot you would say, but imagine that every active member here do the experiment, since we are a few tens of active members, we end up with a very high probability (relatively speaking) that someone would guess the card with plain luck. So I would advise using more cards. If we are using 2 cards, then the probability to guess them is 1 chance out of 52*51 which is 2,652 . That's better. If you think you can remember 3 cards, then it is 52*51*50, which is 132,600 . With such a small sample and low probability, there is no luck. The more cards you use, the less you risk just guessing right, and we do have a valid scientific protocol.
