Finally, we get to see some waves
Whenever I watch something, my mind automatically process through all the tropes I know and try to conjure up possible scenarios I may face, and the ending that I might see.
However, this is not the case with Umi ga Kikoeru.
Mizoguchi Keiji's Icha Icha Railgun
Due to the C77 hype, I was craving for a A CERTAIN SCIENTIFIC RAILGUN doujin. Therefore, I got this set of short stories from a recommendation.
stolen a part of the official poster, stolen from their official site haha
I rarely go to local conventions, mainly because I hate the massive SQUASQUA attendance. Even “just standing by in a con”, I was labeled, as lolfanboy by a stupid host in a certain stupid webcast. Now, enough with the histories and to the topic: Komikon: 09.
Is this a Rei reference?
I never really looked forward to watching LaMB on Animax, since Animax-Asia is good at advertising and fails at the output.
It reminded me of Animax hyped up advertising of Pupil’s so called animated Music video that turned out to be just a bunch of pictures swaying on the screen, with no fixed story whatsoever, and just the band members living out their so called fantasy, in short jerking off in 2D.
Kannagi: Armpit Anime
I rarely watch new shows during starts of seasons, I was either doing a monthly rewatch or checking what good stuffs I’ve missed on previous ones. I usually let new shows sit for two or three episodes unless I’ve read/played/seen it and liked it. Also, for some reason, this season is a sequel season, a continuation of Fall 07 which was also a CHUNKY season. And here are my thoughts halfway through this CHUNKY season.
RAWR! I'm the Autorun Monster
Almost two months has passed, SUNRISE trolling fans, Anime Summer Season failing miserably, daily quality Family Musou games and the start of a new school term. And here I am blabbing about computers again.
Being a Computer Science Major, I know the computer inside out than most people. From using it, maintenance, troubleshooting and raeping it efficiently. (using its full capabilities without harming the system)
So, what’s the gist? What I’m LOL-ing about is, how people react when they see a Autorun.inf file and how they blame me and my flash drive because their PCs are infected. Read the rest of this post »
Cast of ARIA
With my midterm exams finished, I decided to reward myself with ARIA the ORIGINATION’s last three episodes which is also the end of the ARIA series. As my previous post stated, I was in an inner struggle whether to finish ARIA or not, but heck.. I’d rather see how everyhing turned out rather than just knowing that those three became Primas, and etc, etc, etc.
Now, I am really regretting not watching ARIA during its time. Because shows as good as this must be watched with a week in between. No particular reason at all, it’s just I want to feel the intensity of waiting for another good story the episode has to offer.
It’s been a while since I fanboyed over a particular series, and at least this time, I didn’t fanboyed it over skimpy outfits, hot girls, chichi, oppai, but instead I fanboyed it over the story and the show itself.
During my run of ARIA and all of its Iterations, a lot of things made me love the show. And here are some of them:
For the time I spent whoring the internets and lurking in anime blogs, I never failed to see a good review of Aria The Animation and any of its iterations.
During those times, I chose to ignore Aria concluding that it’s “just another moe anime”… I was wrong.
Considering the story is intended for young schoolgirls, the show has a lot of adult fans as well. I usually see raves of this series mostly in good editorial type anime blogs, though there are also episode reviews in episodic anime blogs. At least it’s not in rabid fanboy blogs that is full of fanboy reviews.
What’s interesting is, even if the show drags in a very slow pace like the calm waters of Aqua, it’s not that boring. There’s always something interesting popping in every corner and in every episode. You get to see and feel how the characters and their relationships develop, and how they enjoy their lives in Aqua.
As the first season got licensed, I got the urge to see what Aria is all about. At first, my feelings and interest for the show was wavering. But as it went on, I grew fonder of the show and felt depressed at the end of the first and second seasons.
Now that the story recently came to a close, I really don’t feel like finishing ARIA the ORIGINATION, because it’s depressing to see good stories end.
Yesterday, my professor brought his laptop in class. I saw his Windows classic GUI then I realized that same type of people sets up their desktop gui the same way, and the funny thing is… their desktop setup similarities are beyond coincidence.
Oh yeah… this what I observed within my school’s population, though I’m 75% sure it can apply to other PC users as well.
I’m a fan of the GANTZ series, loved those service shots and its amount of gore… plus, it’s kinda fun hunting monsters every night with a powered-up suit with a neat set of weaponry and vehicles. It’s like playing a video game in insane mode, with one life.
Well, I’m not going into more details about GANTZ since It’s not really the main point of this post.
I think I started reading GANTZ around 2 years ago… started with 13 volumes in circulation, and following up the rest weekly in YJ. After that, it went into a break because Hiroya Oku needed to give way for “Me-Teru no Kimochi “. The second phase, started in November 22, 2006.
The Second phase started in Osaka Arc, where the group, (now with Kato as Lead and Kurono dead) was suddenly transported into Osaka where they meet another group of hunters. Then, blah blah moar explosions, moar killings, new hot girl character, f*cked up moments and new OMFG Weapons. And oh yeah, there’s this new IMBA guy and teh GANTZ Mecha.
Then, the drift is… remember how I said they do hunts every night?
They are still in Osaka scenario (which is only ONE night) for more than a f’n year! (Nov. 22, 2006 remember?)
Haha, that’s it… RILY
