Rushing a bit since I still have to play catch up tonight.

Jan 20, 2010 23:06

Just got back from Infusion Magazine & UGAnime Club meeting. This week is the actual schedule for the rest of the year so of course I have to make a post with my reactions. Because it's fun and all of you get the chance to tell me if you've seen any of these shows before.

( Come on in, you know you wanna... )

kaleido star, darker than black, nana, uganime, eden of the east, kuroshitsuji

Man, I have fallen completely out of anime. :| I'll come back eventually, I'm just not happy with the state of it right now. You know I run on a cycle, anyway.

Re: Passive-Aggressive Guy: I can't speak to whether or not he would have yelled at you, but as for thinking about it, I have the same problem sometimes (though it's usually with me thinking about embarrassing shit I've done in the past). I - this is going to sound dumb - tend to picture an actual boot kicking the thought out of my head. I don't know if it'd work for you, but inflicting some sort of violence on the intruding thoughts tends to make them stop for me.

Yeah, I know. Then again, I was expecting either Cori-kun or Femmephantom to come by and let me know if they've heard of any of the new anime.

I dunno, I mean the only time I've been yelled at by a guy was the cowards in the elevator back when I lived on the 3rd floor of Creswell who would yell things just when the doors were closing. Besides, I kind of wanted to explain to the guy that I was in a hurry for a meeting but again, it's not an issue any more. I don't care. I had my time to think about it and that time is up.

Still need to watch Nana.

And we started Eden of the East, but our anime club never finishes a series. Seemed interesting enough, like an anime Bourne. And I never did figure out what noblesse oblige had to do w/ anything.

DTB was good all the way through, I just wished they'd done more with it....which they may have now that they made a sequal series, but I hope they kept many original characters (b/c i'm anal like that)

And no, he probably wouldn't have said anything directly too you. He's probably just pissed b/c, let's face it, school does that to you.

You really should. It's so full of almost soap-opera level drama but it's saved by excellent characters, ridiculously good music, pretty animation, and genuinely good writing. It's a good show to watch when you want to be shocked and yell and sniffle and laugh. You can't watch Nana quietly--it's just not possible.

I heard about the sequel series. Since I haven't finished the first season, I won't peek at the second one just yet. This weekend I plan to get caught up to the episode I saw last night. Missed maybe two or three of them.

Good thing, then, because I crumble under high-pressure confrontation. Maybe he would have been swayed by my Woobie face. xD

lol. Gonna have to see it eventually...and apparently Becca has the live-action movie.

How far along are you? (And do you ship/crackship anything?)

He probably wouldn't have. Even racist southernern men wouldn't do that to you b/c you are female. Sometimes, being a girl is really good.

Don't know anything about the live action movie because I sort of think series that do them are weird. Idk, it might actually be good.

I think I stopped at episode 12. I'm not as behind as I thought I was. Cool. I think I'll watch 12 & 13 this weekend.

Yeah, I do like being a girl. For all the sexist issues, you get yelled at less by strangers.
