About _ETERNAL
Welcome! My name handle is Eternal, and I like to tl;dr about irrelevant things. I'm not picky about case-sensitivity, but in case it isn't obvious, the underscore in my name is only there because the site isn't case sensitive and Eternal was already taken. Then again, I guess that's my own problem.

Anyway, I'm an anime blogger with just a few too many aspirations for the future, and I have a deep love for both otaku/nerd culture and the creative arts as a whole. I plan to major in English in university, with a possible minor in music, and my ambition in life is to create and appreciate art.

In terms of anime, my favourite genres are usually male-targeted romance/drama, more often than not based off of visual novels, but I also love psychological/philosophical stories like Neon Genesis Evangelion and RahXephon, and a light dose of shoujo/slice of life never hurt anyone (though for some inexplicable reason I've never been into iyashikei). Honey and Clover still stands as my favourite anime in a list of 300+, because in my mind, it's romance/slice of life at its absolute best; even a million Key's and Makoto Shinkai's can never beat that. I could write a lot more about it - in fact, I have - but the bottom line is that it's the only love story you'll ever have to watch, period. I also have a tremendous respect for the anime adaptations of ef - a fairy tale of the two - just as I consider H&C to be the embodiment of flawless slice-of-life/romance, I view ef as the perfect romanticized love story. It's artistic, beautiful, simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking - the romance is both intense and dramatic, yet painfully realistic - and ultimately, it gives off a surreal aura that draws you in like nothing else. Incidentally, Kanon is also on my favourites list because it defines the visual novel genre for me, and Clannad speaks for itself with its fairy-tale-like telling of life and love, using fantasy and escapist elements to convey the message that life can be as beautiful as it can be painful.

(I don't think I need to justify 5 Centimeters Per Second - Shinkai does Distance and Bittersweet Romance like GAINAX does Super Robots.)

I believe it's worth noting The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, because there's a reason why it isn't on my favourites list: it's in a tier of it's own. I believe that the "tier list" one puts up for their favourite anime should represent the anime they consider to be the best, subjectively and objectively, but that doesn't say much for the shows that influenced you along the way. I've technically seen better anime, but to me, Haruhi is timeless, and chances are I wouldn't even be here right now if it weren't for Suzumiya-sama and her crazy antics. While I may not shower the show with praise for being the greatest anime of all time, there's one thing it did do: it changed me from an anime fan to an otaku.

Aside from anime, my other otaku-related hobbies involve visual novels, merchandise collecting, and miscellaneous games like Stepmania and the Touhou series. I listen to music, play video games, and do all of the standard things, but you can read about that on my other profiles. The center of my focus on the internet is the anime blogosphere; you can read my stuff here, read more about me here, or find the rest of my nexistence here. I'm involved in some other stuff as well, like the creation of a doujin visual novel, but I'm still working on those. You can find more info on my other projects and sites from the page linked above.

So with all of that said, I hope you now have a slightly more accurate idea as to who I am and what I do. I don't think I'm an unfriendly person so feel free to drop a comment or friend request if we have something in common. You can also follow me on Twitter or contact me most anywhere else on the internet; automatic email notifications work like a charm!

I could review them, but that would all take way too long. So for now it will have to do with my random rantings.

I am more of a rant person, I think.

Also IRC:
(23:55:47) (MaidenV) You're like Robert Christgau
(23:55:52) (MaidenV) Seriously, read his reviews
(23:56:04) (ZOiQ) Is that some amercain? :@
(23:56:16) (MaidenV) He's been reviewing music since the 70's
(23:56:31) (MaidenV) Half of his reviews are basically "Shit music for queers"
(23:56:36) (MaidenV) "next"
(23:56:52) (ZOiQ) lol
(23:58:05) (ZOiQ) might be true

Eab1990 | 10-19-09, 9:43 PM
Oh, you. Posting that on my wall. I'll have to remove it afterwards just to keep things relatively clean. >_>

The game... makes me mourn for Michiru. I never actually played through much of it, only a few of the opening scenes and Michiru's h-scenes, but yeah. Lots of rape, gangrape, and S&M ****. While I'm not sure what you mean by "good," my score of 6 is a decent indication of my opinion. Decent hentai quality, meh (but baw) story, yet still a ****ed up plot all the same. If you can't stomach it... Eh. Not sure why you're curious, but whatever floats your boat. o.o

Rankblotch | 10-18-09, 8:52 PM
Hey there Eternal.. drop by the Kanon boards again some time, me and Eab don't see you no more there, hehe XD

Micchi | 10-18-09, 1:48 PM
Heh ya, it is quite useful in that regard, although I usually just keep track in an Excel file and on the blog. The ratings are slightly different though.

Well, I actually haven't played all that much. I'm just aware of them all due to keeping up with all the daily news. I don't have the time to play all the games that I want and I usually take my sweet time when I play, so my list actually isn't all too long XD

For VNDB, I'll probably only include those that I completed enough to warrant me rating them. Thanks for the heads up.

tentennum1 | 10-18-09, 1:37 PM
