If you're at a military academy (i.e. the Naval Academy or Air Force Academy) I'd assume it's probably not a good idea to *edit* with Uncle Sam's network security. Post edited. Reason Code 001: Bypassing language filter.

I think I'm going to edit the wikipedia article using that summary and cite this thread. Hopefully the lupine doesn't get too grizzly about there being a summary again.

You can go to wikipedia and use the history function to go back several months and view the story summary from the beginning. That Ookami Alfador person is still blocking attempts to keep a full-fledged story summary there.

Okay you can see them when disguised as Anome during the halloween event. That's what you were hinting at, right? Because god help you if you were hinting that he's alive.

Well, aside from the Trea for the males, there's Anome's glasses, which we haven't seen since he died. As far as I recall they're pretty similar to Brenda's, too.
