Introducing... us.

We're four girls plus some other people who are pretty much insane in the membrane and awesome in the possum. We are known to the Interwebs as Professor Man, Starlet, Lonk, and Nole.



There are others who are not technically the Shiawase no Shika, but they appear in our shenanigans pretty often: Whale, Nila, and Dumpus.

(DUMPUS)

We created this blog to showcase all the kick-awesome and absoludicrous things we make/do/sing. We're total geeks in our own individual ways and have various fandoms and interests. We used to be on Google Sites, but that went the way of Pluto in the summer of 2009 and we arrived at Blogger shortly thereafter.

The name "Shiawase no Shika" (幸せの鹿, or しあわせのしか in kana) somewhat loosely translated means "Deer of Happiness" in Japanese. We went to Nara Park in Japan back in April 2007, and bought kitschy touristy deer antler headbands at the gift shop in Tōdai Temple. That's how we became the Shiawase no Shika, for a combined total of 1,200 yen!

We also seem to be the only four female Ace Attorney fans on Earth who are severely NOT interested in Phoenix/Edgeworth or other slash pairings/fics/art. We do, however, fully support Gumshoe/Maggey because it's canon and they're just so darned cute. If you are a female Ace Attorney fan of similar opinion, please comment or e-mail us and tell us we're not alone.

Shiawase no shika! Sugoi ne! Shika ga daisuki! Shiawase no shika! Tsuki wa kirei! Nihon ni itta! Tanoshikatta! Shiawase no shika!

The deer of happiness! They're cool, huh? We love deer! The deer of happiness! The moon is pretty! We went to Japan! It was fun! The deer of happiness!
