My uncle showed this video to me, and it is awesome. No action, little dialogue, but deep. Just thought I'd share.

I hope you all find this as funny as Sapphire Knight and I did...

An anime movie (Miyazaki, no less) that I personally consider the best anime of all time.
I wish my neighbor was Totoro!
--------------------------
I finally finished watching Death Note (best drugs anime I've ever had seen), and all I can say is that Yagami Light is my hero; I don't care how evil he is, he is a freakin' genius. Poor guy, so sad ending...
Long Live Kira!

Go and support my blog! Don't worry, its not a traditional blog, it hosts the first in a series of short stories that I guarantee to be good. Soooo, go read it!
Athena rocks! Go goddess of war!

Ghost in the Shell is an awesome anime and for those of you who haven't seen it, I can only pity you.

I just finished watching Kino no tabi and it was awesome! My sympathies are extended towards Kino, though, poor girl. She puts up a tough, unemotional act, but episodes such as "The Land of Adults" and "A Kind Land" reveal that she's just a regular(ok, not copmpletely regular) girl. After seeing Kino, I wish I could take a journey...

Another anime I can't fit on my favorite list... Blood+ is an awesome anime with amazing action sequences, a great plot, and dynamic character. I recommend this to anyone and everyone. Although, the English dub is better, because there's a couple Americans, a Russia chick, and a French dude, but it is funny to listen to Japanese voice actors imitating a French guy. Anyways, WATCH IT
Saya Otonashi: the main characterHaji: Saya's chevalierKai: her older brotherSolomon: Diva's turncoat chevalierChiropteran: freaky monsters who need human blood to survive; Saya + Diva are chiropteran queensDiva: Saya's twin sister who is the polar opposite of Saya; complete + total sadist, who is also insanely powerful

I just finished watching Baccano!, and it was awesome! I love the sound track, but the opening is my favorite; very swingin'. It perfectly embodies 30's music culture.
--------------------
OK, so my little brother has an imeem account with a lot of music, including some video game and anime songs, most notably his Bleach collection, with my personal favorite "Number One" by MASH. Go check it out. Good stuff Danit Tanzo on IMEEM
Omh I know!! It's spectacular isn't it?!?! Now you know why it has unseated Melancholy for my number 1 slot. Anyway, yeah, Nia's fade away was so depressing, but I think it was necessary. As much as I wanted Nia and Simon to happily grow old together, it would have been too cheesy imo... sad, but those are my thoughts :P
OMH!! I know!! I love the romance between Lelu and Shirley!! And she got over his killing her dad?!?! How much strength do you think that takes?? She is definitely one of the best developed characters. Although, I think her death was a bit necessary because I want Lelu to end up with Kallen ><
But to have Rolo kill her??? AAGHHH! That was intense. The whole ep was pretty intense. And ORANGE?!?! He switches sides?! Lelu is beast at getting the inside men (and women, Villeta). He's unstoppable!!! Even the emperor will join the Rebellion at this rate! haha
Also, I'm running over to your blog then -AtaraxiA-'s right now.
Also Also (wik) I'm not at summer school b/c I'm interning at Firehouse Recording Studios with a famous music mastering, mixing, and other things music guy, Dale Becker. Having the time of my life really. How's school? and I'm sure we could finish our little bout sometime :D
NOT True!! There are three OVAs available on the dvd release of Baccano that subbers have got their hands on. Serious? like I'd mention them if I didn't know they existed? What do you think MAL is for?? other than clubs and claims... haha. Anyway, in places I've found, the OVAs are eps 14, 15, 16; however, if you look it up on MAL they separate them into Baccano! OVA
