NeoAngelique revisited

So, recently, I have been brainwashing introducing a friend to the wonders of Neoroma. Well, no, that's not strictly true. He was curious, and he now regrets his curiosity, but I gave him Neoange to watch because, aside from being full of things to laugh at, it's also probably the one which is least likely to send him ( Read more... )

I don't post in here as often as I used to, which is a shame, and entirely because I'm a lazy person (or busy person, depending on which way you look at it). But this merits a post at the very least.

I'm sure that by now all hardcore intelligent Haruka fans will already know about this, but I felt the need to babble a bit anyhow.

Haruka 6.

So I have been rereading Even A Worm recently, because mostly I have been indoctrinating a friend to the Saiyuki manga (since he liked the anime and I needed to show him how many more levels of awesome the manga was, especially this arc).

I got to thinking about some of the symbolism in the characters - specifically Sanzou, Ukoku and Koumyou.

So I am slowly getting used to the idea of Saiyuki updating regularly. Sigh. It's such a luxury.

Thanks to awesome peoples sekaiseifuku and baka_kusuri, I have found the raw to the newest chapter. I haven't done a manga translation for a while, so I had a go at this one because it had lots of lovely Buddhist Six Realms references in, and because I am totally on a ( Read more... )

This makes me happy ( Read more... )

So I got my hands on this a while back, at least, the first half of the series (I think it's still airing, so will have to wait for part two), but have only recently got around to beginning to watch it. Since I have still not formally finished the last two Taiga drama I began - Yoshitsune (on account of not wanting to see Yoshitsune or Munemori die ( Read more... )

So I could begin this post with a long discussion on this week's chapter of Bleach and why the entirety of the fandom has gone mad, but I am just so sick of it I'm really not going to bother. What is done is done, can't be changed, and I actually like 515 better than the rest of this arc so far, because it has some nice character buildup and it ( Read more... )

So I've been playing Koruda 3. I decided to begin over after my last post, and actually focus on trying to nail one or two character paths instead of just flitting around characters and not getting anywhere too meaningful with any. Playing just for one character is a bit dull, though, so I'm playing the paths for two. They don't seem to be clashing ( Read more... )

Okay, so today I turned *cringe* 29.

This is the first birthday in some years where I've not gone anywhere or done anything specific. I was working till 8 last night, and am up early again tomorrow for work, so I seriously just wanted a break, but maybe I'm just getting old and to the point when "birthday" becomes blurred in with "a day that happens ( Read more... )

O.o Anyone else think that it's slightly ironic that an OVA called Owarinaki Unmei is probably the last we're gonna ever get of animated HT3?

I've heard people talk about a TV series but it's really not going to happen. They've covered way too much of the game plot so if they did one it would be completely from scratch. And that's not going to ( Read more... )
