Tomalicious Revival!!

[eunixe.livejournal.com]

Tomalicious is the first international fanboard dedicated to Japanese actor-singer Ikuta Toma.

It all started in 2007, when a group of fangirls were happily flooding the Hana Kimi and Ikuta Toma threads at D-addicts. The first active members and founders of the forum were Kittyjam, Yamapink, Scattie and TripleT; as well as some of the other old staff members who contributed greatly in gathering information about Toma, subbing videos, translating articles and designing the forum.

Finally, the majority agreed that the forum be officially named "Tomalicious".

With the help and contribution of the staff and members, it gained more popularity during Toma's big break(Hana Kimi).The forum then rose to popularity as the number 1 source for the Ikuta Toma fandom.

After Hana Kimi, Toma rose to fame with more projects; and that is when the Tomalicious subbing team, led by Scattie, was created. They subbed numerous Ikuta Toma-related videos (including his dramas such as Honey & Clover, Maou, Voice, Majo Saiban among others) exclusively for Tomalicious members.

Since 2007, Tomalicious has become one of the most active Ikuta Toma communities with 3,800 registered members, its own fansite, an international forum and its own subbing team. It has become one of the main sources of Ikuta Toma news and media on the Internet before it went on hiatus in 2011 due to the staff's busy schedule.

Thanks to social networking sites like facebook and twitter, the staff members were able to get in touch with each other. Reminiscing the good times they had at Tomalicious, the staff felt that it is a waste if they just leave the forum in its inactive state. They decided to revive the forum, recruit new staff and pass the forum to active and responsible Ikuta Toma fans.

In line with that, Tomalicious is now recruiting new staff members who are dedicated and responsible.


If you are interested in helping maintain Tomalicious or in joining the subbing team, you may leave your application by replying in the hiring thread or by emailing your application to tomaliciousforums@gmail.com.

Here are the list of available positions and their responsibilities.

For questions, comments, and other concerns, you may contact us through the forum, via email (tomaliciousforums@gmail.com) or tweet us @tomalicious_frm.

We are looking forward to having additional team members! [and of course, more fangirling! (^_^)]
