:love: this have to help :)

it's not much info anyway :(

Well, the part that talks about the -sama attachment would explain why Keiichi asks Belldandy to stop calling him Morisato Keiichi sama since 1)its a mouthfull 2)he realizes that they are gonna be together for a while, a long while. Though that doesnt explain why HE doesnt call HER Belldandy-sama. I mean it would only make sense since she IS a deity, a superbeing who may or may not have had a hand in his creation and/or his possible preordainded fate. Im just saying, even if you ARE dating a deity, treat her like the goddess she is and ask SOME questions about the workings of the celestial upperfloor. I mean COME ON MAN! Ask about the meaning of life, ask every burning question that has haunted man since man began to think about more than his next meal, and ask what the heck happens when you die!

tnx now i understand XD

Now, now Paladin. We all know that answering such questions shortens the longevity of a series. Look at Lost, they'll be revealing stuff for the next 20 years:= (I'm joking of course, for those of you without a sense of irony)

Chan
- for calling a kid
- a kid who calling someone close to him/her
- A childhood friend
- Calling a close friend [female]

San
- For showing respect, normally for collague, friends

Sama
- For someone that highfully respected, like God, King, or other people with high rank.

Kun
- Normally for calling a close friend [male]

Dono
- uhmmm.... I forget this one :LOL:, but if I'm not wrong, it's for showing respect too, but I forget how and when.

I heard that with Lost, they had already planned an ending for it which would make the series last for 3 years but ABC made them strech it for 5 years and so the makers are having to to work hard to elongate the series and its started to show a bit in the third season. Though we should be glad that ABC was a bit smarter than FOX back when it had a hit on its hands called Fire Fly but they ran stuff out of order, cut out the first episode and made the second episode the first and thus made it confusing and MADE it have bad ratings and killed it after 13 episodes. You would think that FOX would take something made by the same guy who made Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel and try to make it work, but nnnoooooo! They dropped the ball and shot it. (My avatar is a picture of the Fire Fly class medium cargo ship known as Serenity where most of the action of Fire Fly occurs.)

Oh I know. It just seems to be the thing to pick on of late. I shall make better attempts at wit and originality in the future.
