One of my friends went to Japan during the summer and brought back a little box of Tsundere cookies with him, Russian style. We had no idea what that meant as we didn’t feel like eating it at the moment. So today as I went to that same friends households to watch a comrade play Demon’s Souls (which is fucking awesome by the way, getting it as soon as I fix my PS3). Anyways we decided to break out the box of cookies on a whim. Our fatal mistake was ignored all that society has taught us about skull marks: that it usually means something bad. My friend ate it, no problem. I eat mine, no problem…for 3 seconds. All of a sudden a intense wave of hot comes out of nowhere and I’m in dire need of something to quell it. Turns out I got the “tsun”(death) cookie. Also turns out that 10 out of the 12 cookies are tsun or laced with some type of spicy powder and only 10 are “dere”(safe). I mean the cookie tasted kinda good till the hotness hit me. Being the idiot and lover of all things tsudnere that I was I went and downed 2 more cookies. They all turned out to be tsun cookies.
something like that happened.
I couldn’t take it anymore as the fire was getting to me. I quickly quelled the fire with some Baileys. God I love that stuff. Anyways we didn’t get through the entire box. There were 4 of us: 1 of who ate a dere cookie, the other 2 only ate 1 each both of which were tsun, and I ate 3 tsun cookies. In effect you could say we played a round of Russian Roulette with only one of us surviving…and I ended up dieing 3 times. I am not a masochist but I love my tsundere characters. I just don’t care for their cookies. Scarred for life from this experience and let it be a lesson to everyone not to eat cookies made by someone with more tsun than dere.
Be careful who cooks for you....it could be your last meal.
So what’s causing me to lag horribly behind in both the anime world and real world? Aion. My comrades from the CoalitionLAN (mainly Popsikle) nostalgia tripped me into getting the game by saying a few of my CL buddies were playing. So naturally I went out and bought it and started playing. I must say it is a lot of fun though blowing shit up as a Sorcerer. I wish people will stop with all the WoW comparisons. I mean yeah a lot of things look like it was taken from WoW but really it feels more Warhammer-esque than WoW. If any of you readers decide that you want to pick up the game there’s a home for you on the Marchutan server with the legion Aether Junkies. Just send a message to you know who (me). Now there are some restrictions, mainly you have to be mature.
Really Atlus needs to stop coming up with things that I have to spend my money on. I love Atlus now, I really do but I like having money also haha. So what’s this I’m ranting on about?
Kenka Bancho a PSP game where you run around being a complete badass (Bancho) that shoots laser beams from your eyes and beats people up dressed in a Banana Suit. Awesome. No words can express my utter excitement for this game to release and the hilarity that will ensue. Maybe after a few days of playing I’ll start walking around campus like a Bancho and have a legion of followers. But first I would need to go to Japan (as the commercial points out).
So while I haven’t been blogging a whole lot, I have been able to keep up with my figure pre-ordering habit. Truthfully this habit is gonna hurt come December when the bulk of my figure pre-orders come. I’ve had to cancel a few figs in order to be able to buy others. Of course as usual I get my orders from Toyslogic or Hobby Search.
Not me, Masami Obari.
So for the remainder of the year this I got these coming: Continue Reading »
So it’s been a while since the last post. Semester has been a real pain in the but and whatnot. Decided to change my major to IT (I couldn’t stick with MIS anymore cause it…you know…doesn’t exist at my University anymore), so I have to deal with the pre-requisites for the College of Computer Science. I might be in school for another year but everything is fun. C Programming is a lot of fun, minus when the prof gives us an assignment he knows we can’t do just to fuck with us (Awesome professor though).
So my room. It’s about 15 times larger than the room I had at the dorms and slightly smaller than the room at my parents house. I’m using a twin bed just for space purposes (though that doesn’t seem to be the problem), and I hope to fill in the empty space you are about to see with a coffee table to do work and a lounge like chair to read my books and manga. Not really satisfied with the arrangement right now so I’ll probably change it. However I finally have a case to store my figures which is what I’m most proud of. Continue Reading »
So the previous weekend I received my Aozaki Touko (or Toko) and I was pretty excited to unbox it. The quality by Alter just surprises me sometimes, maybe cause I don’t buy too many Alter figs. Oh well I will be buying more now. The figure comes with interchangeable heads, a VERY small cigarette attachment, and a desk chair with swiveling wheels (for what purpose I don’t know). The base also has in almost invisible font “Kara no Kyoukai”, gotta angle it or shine a light on it to find it.
Oh well I thought I posted it but I didn’t so let me get to it even though everyone else probably has done it.
Fall 2009 Anime Season
I got the chart from Fakku (Warning! Contains adult material), which then linked me to Chartfag a convenient website for all your anime season chart needs and perhaps more. Never again will you have to search Google for incomplete images, visit sketchy websites, or go on 4chan. Now we have Chartfag. It looks like it’s been around for a while and I’ve never found them. I fail =(.
So what looks good this season (to me at least)? A lot of continuations, a bit of new stuff, and some long awaited series. So let’s get down to it:
Must Watch: Darker Than Black: Comet of Gemini – A Chinese main character in MY Japanese Anime?! More likely than you think. Yes more Hei action. Letter Bee – I saw what I think was the OVA a while back and I liked it so here’s looking forward to this series Romance of the Three Kingdoms – Really? Need I say more? The Sacred Blacksmith – I like the character design an the premises of the story (somewhat) Fairy Tail – Loved the Manga Kobato – Like I said before: CLAMP slice of life??? Fuck yeah! It needs to come out faster. Kimi no Todoke – Production IG goodness and a love story that’ll be interesting
Maybe: Armed Librarians: Book of Bantorra – Could be good, pretty skeptical when things revolve around libraries. Sasameki Koto – Depends on how much I want a Yuri show or if I hear it’s good. Nyan Koi – Could be good or could be bad. I’ll more than likely watch the 1st ep. Natsu no Arashi 2 – I’d have to finish 1 before I can watch 2 Asura Cryin 2 – See above Queens Blade – See above
NO: Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu: Purezza – For fucks sake people it’s not a secret anymore!!! Everyone knows!!! Noto Mamiko’s Angel like voice cannot save this forsaken show. Shin Koihime Musou – First of why would you watch this when there’s a more epic 3 Kingdoms anime in the same season?! Second why would you even watch the 1st season?! Inuyasha Final Act – Goddamn about time it’ll end. Winter Sonata – Not that it’s going to be bad or anything but I know from experience that Koreans take drama to a whole new level and I do not want to feel depressed this fall semester. Maybe during Winter Break when I don’t need to focus on anything.
Comments- Lots of continuations and weird shows. Strange to see SHAFT only doing one show this season. Someone is trying to bring back Tamagotchis.
It’s over!!! It’s finally over!!! I was getting SO sick and tired of German grammar!!
yay!
Now that summer classes are over I am 10000% less stressed and moved into my new apartment. My room is very desolate right now with only my computer desk and my bed. I’m looking to put a display case or two for my figs, a bookcase for my games, manga, etc, and a dresser. The dresser is not really needed but it would be nice, mainly focusing on the display case and bookcase. Will post pictures once everything is set up.
Other than relaxing I haven’t been doing much. Been playing Fat Princess but my PS3 just pulled a “can’t read discs” problem so I need to send it in for repairs. If you want to play some Fat Princess with me send me a friend request on PSN and we’ll play. Can never have enough warriors to rescue our plump maiden.
FEEEDDD MEEEE
Back home packing some stuff to bring to my place. I hope I can fit everything into my car.
Here’s my games and dvds I have packed so far:
packed tight as sardines with games and dvds.
I got still got my books, mangas, figures, and some clothes to pack. Just a little bit more to pack heh.
In other news I found a pleasant surprise when I came home yesterday. Continue Reading »
Here we go Ristorante Paradiso 3, more of a mellow episode with nothing TOO spectacular happening.
In the opening scene we are shown what looks to be a confrontation between a lady and Claudio asking him when he was going to take the ring off. She goes off to say he led her on and said a bunch of nice things…then you hear another mans voice and it’s not Claudio, he was just in the same area. This scene is well done as it showcases the problems that plague Claudio at the moment and is one possible type of confrontation between him and Nicoletta.
After the OP Nicoletta, Furio, and Teo are taking a stroll in the local marketplace which is always an area sprawling with life and activity in any European country and in fact most of the world. The few that I’ve been to in the US have been quite lacking in the sense of energy and fresh products offered but that’s maybe cause I’ve only been to a few. The best one I went to was in California which was an awesome day to go out.
Anyways~ We get a scene where they’re at Maurios stall and it seems this is where they go for ingredients if they ever need some in between their deliveries. After an inquiry about Teo’s love life the scene switches to a law firm. Uh oh someone’s in trouble! Haha just kidding, it’s actually where Nicoletta’s mom works and Gabrielle also happens to be working there. Gabrielle talks about how Nicoletta is much like her mother and how she thinks Nicoletta has the wrong idea about her and Claudio that one time she saw them talking. Gabrielle says the situation between is not like that and states that Claudio is holding onto the ring because he lost his chance to take it off. Now for sure we know she has no feelings for Claudio so Nicoletta has the green to go. But how does Claudio feel? I guess we’ll have to find out. Continue Reading »
Once again the folks at OverClocked ReMix proudly present to us another free and awesome remixed game music album. This time the album is a remix of Final Fantasy IV you can grab the album from the site here. The torrent comes in at a whopping 1.67GBs as it contains both Mp3 and Flac files so be sure to set your preferences if you only want one type of file. I’ve listened to a few tracks and I’m loving it. Always nice to know how the song goes through other people’s head and what kind of remix they can come up with.
