I could have a field day with this but I won't. ^_^!
I'll just wish the couple well in their 'endeavors'. \^o^/
(And wonder why this isn't a storyline for a series/OAV) ~_^

This has been proposed for quite some time over in Japan! I seem to
recall that there was a push to actually allow otaku to marry an anime/
manga character in a similar manner a few months ago.
The problem I see with it is who gets to be the "one" otaku who gets
to marry any given character?

Without going into any or all the obvious things which one could say
about this, the concept of marrying a character in a video game is just
essentially Stupid with a capital S!!
Inu-Yasha
Feh!! ^_^
Can we say 'Honeymoon challenged?'
B Sellers
No you said it. Better he should marry a video game character
than involve a real live person in his fantasies.

Relic
Either that or he's gotta have a helluva imagination ^_^.

In the best romantic tradition, they'd use duels.
Course, they'd want to have video game duels. :) Darn.
I'd better quit before I start giving people over there ideas.

Good point, the man (and I'm betting these dinks are all men), would
make poor husband/father material. Of course the father part we don't
need to worry about do we, or can he make game children too?
Inu-Yasha
Feh!!^_^

Thanks Captain Nerd, only you could take a SERIOUS subject like this and
and make a belly shaking joke about it. Good one. ^__^

Fesh!! ^_^

Dibs on Misa from Doukyuusei. Given how old the game/anime is now, she'd
be closer to my age now than all the current favourites. dB)

And the wedding vows, is it death do us part or pull the plug/remove the
batteries?? *__-;

Feh!! ^_^

I think there are many otaku over there for whom involving a real
female in that might be dangerous to the female.

Not a bad idea. Much less headache.

That's one of the possibilities (that I wasn't going to post)... ^_^!
Then again, would DS(i), DX or EX be more appropriate?

who can only imagine the lines the title character would spout...
'Wow, you were right. Smashing buildings *is* fun.'
'Oh hey, Liz.'

'Hey, I can wear shorts and a light-blue shirt too.'

*she sees a sexy girl through the console's camera*
'What does she have that I don't?'
Boy: No volume control.

'Touching isn't *always* good, you know!!'

Well, I know I keep thinking "DS" stands for "Dark Schneider", so that
one's sort-of got an anime reference already...

Story
In the 21st century, noted scientist and computer engineer Doc
Yoshiyama had succeeded in creating the world's most advanced
Artificial Intelligence. He called his creation "C-Life" and managed
to make her aware, thinking, and feeling. However, he soon found
himself in love with this C-Life girl and wanted to be closer to her,
so he digitized and uploaded himself into his computer core, where the
two "made love" by combining his DNA and her program core. The end
result of their love was the birth of a half-human, half C-Life boy
named "Pulseman". Pulseman was unique in that he didn't need to remain
inside a computer to survive, and had the power to channel electricity
through his body, using it both as a weapon and as a means of quick
transport through the power of "Voltteccer".
Unfortunately, living in the computer world for so long twisted Doc
Yoshiyama's mind, corrupting his brainwaves and his body. Doc
Yoshiyama emerged back into the human world, but twisted and changed
into the evil Doc Waruyama. Now, Doc Waruyama establishes the Galaxy
Gang, spreading a new wave of cyber-terrorism across the world, and
Pulseman must fight his own father and put an end to his gang for the
sake of the free world.
