Anime Relations: Overlord

Even though they looked nice on my profile...this is probably a better place to store these huh?

2022 MAL Bunkasai participation tickets:





By the way, thanks to Bunkasai I went back and rewatched all of S1 of Overlord and managed to sit through all 4 seasons that came out
(for some reason I dropped the series in way back when season 2 was in the middle of airing)

Some weird coding happened to my blog so I had to remake it...

This list was previously in my Gaia journal but I figured moving it here would be a better fitting place since I use MAL very frequently to keep track of anime.
side note: Yes I know there is a site that exists that is like MAL but keeps track of video games instead....but I'd rather only keep track of games I've not yet finished rather than my whole collection...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Note: Games in italics technically can be considered "never-ending" games in that they DO NOT have a clear "end of plot" point....but I list them here anyway cuz I don't think I've reached a "good point to say No More!" if that made sense...)
5-31-11 EDIT: Removed all the Harvest Moon games from my list, cuz let's face it---My definition of a "finished Harvest Moon game" is very vague =_=
Dec 18 EDIT: Remade the blog entry from scratch cuz MAL put some weird html tags in the entry when I tried to edit it.

Stuff I Need to do before I can "wipe" my old laptop...

--- Move over manga
--- Move over "My music"
--- Sort through "My pics"

--- Move out/sort all my txt docs...probably need to dump all the "old chats"/school stuff in my external HD...and story/rp stuff go to new laptop...

--- Sort though all the other weird folders that are under "My Documents" o_O

Anime Relations: Yuu☆Yuu☆Hakusho, Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch, Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch R2, Persona: Trinity Soul

Mmm...I thought more people might be interested on here on what kind of anime stuff I bought from Taiwan this year.

However I'm a bit too lazy to copy the entry and the pics from my LJ to here so....*PLUGS*
http://nadistu.livejournal.com/2008/07/08/
check it out? Includes a few picures!
I have to admit...alot of it is Code Geass related XD;;;;;;

and I do have a bunch more stuff besides what I took pictures of....including, but not limited to:
.hack//roots OST 1 & 2, DNAngel OST, some Suikoden 5 book (it was entitled "The Time of Daybreak", a Youko Kurama keychain, YYH pencil board, Utawarerumono folder (a 2 set), Plushies of...erm...4 Pokemon...(I forget their names but it's the evolutions of Misdreavous, Magmar, Likitung, and a rare Pokemon that doesn't have pre or post evolutions-------and I most likely mispelled all of those),
um...Chinese manga of 1st vol of Harem Lodge (T_T they didn't have 2nd vol yet...), one of the Fruits Basket special books/vols (not the Vol cat...I have "vol cat" already), a random novel(it looked interesting xp...bout some girl who woke up one morning about a cat tail and was all "OMG!!!What am I going to DOOOOO!!",

and....um...................I can't recall anything else....though I probably left a few things out....

Anime Relations: InuYasha

Possible spoilers within (well duh)

Out of boredom I went and read the last 3 volumes of Inuyasha and frankly...the ending sucked just as bad as Ranma's.......
I admit....I haven't been keeping up reading the thing since I dropped it around volume 40 so....okay maybe that might've taken something out of the impact of the ending...

or most likely....NOT

PERSONALLY.....call me evil...but I wanted Inuyasha to either despair more or have some more dramatic and/or funny reaction when Kagome returned. What's with the stupid blank expression of his he had for most of the chapter?
(though that thing with Sesshoumaru was kinda funny...but the lulz was only like...what? 2-3 panels? NOT DAMN ENOUGH!)
....boooooo....I wanted to see some quarter youkai
(.........oops...did I say that out loud.......*twiddles thumbs* )
<_< <_< >_> >_>

but bleh...I mean the beginning was better than the ending...The mangaka just seems to have a bad habit of dragging stuff out so long that the endings just go *KAPUT* ....both Inuyasha AND Ranma were like that....so much potential gone with a half-ass anti-climatic ending.
(at least Ranma still was kinda funny at the end...despite the ending being kinda dull...if I remember correctly........)

Well whatever...glad the seemingly endless thing is finally done....
that just leaves Bleach and Naruto.............. ._.

Anime Relations: Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch R2

Ahh don't you love anime-related dreams?
Last night I had one (haven't had one for a long time)
And it actually made sense! =D And I remember most of it! xD

It was Code Geass R2 (anime)-related <3
If you haven't seen the anime/aren't "up to date" with the latest eps I suggest you don't read anymore as it may have slight spoilers....
.
.

ANYHOW....How it went....mm...let's see....
ok well...in the dream I happened to be one of the Black Knights and I knew Zero's identity and I guess you can consider me of high rank.........So I guess you can say "in terms of rank" I was something like Kallen -a kinda right hand m-ER person-- but more like the news broadcasting guy in that I didn't have any skills with fighting in Nightmares etc. but worked behind the scenes.
OH.....but even though I was an actual character in the dream the "point-of view" sometimes shifted somewhere where I wasn't----kinda like watching an anime----kinda weird I guess but it's all good =p

So....like a bunch of the Black Knights were hiding out in this large apartment place (kinda nice apartment too I have to add) and well....I guess my dream takes place right after the latest episode (Ep 8) cuz Lelou was trying to think of a way to get Suzaku out of the school before they completely left Britannia. In the dream I asked him if he had it all sorted out and he told me that he had something in store already.
Screen shifts to Suzaku who's going through this whole thinking aloud to himself about "Why did Zero Geass me with the order 'Live on' " and stuff ya know? Then there's a flash back of him in his Nightmare suppossedly protecting some "high-ranking" officer from some ray-beam I guess and like the last second his Geass-order "Live on" triggered and he jumped out of the way hence hitting the "important person" behind him and greatly injuring them.....I think it was....
Anyhow....through some manipulation through Villeta, they somehow convinced the higher ups to transfer Suzaku because of this latest fiasco so DUN Dun dun! Suzaku has to leave his 'school post' (lol.....gee I hope in the anime it ain't that lame of a reason...though at least it is a reason....)
But so with that Villeta and Rolo left they can still pretend/report to their higher ups that they are still monitoring Lelouch even though in truth he isn't in the school anymore

Ok sooooo back to the Black Knights....They're running around packing up stuff and then at one point I'm in an upper floor room with only Lelouch, Kallen, C.C and then some little girl (who kind of reminded me of Nunally) walks in front of the building and is visible from the window....Kallen was talking to the little girl from the window and Lelouch apparently recognizes her too and runs to the window and says to her "Are you forgetting something?"

I had a feeling he was referring to himself...(And later on Kallen did explain it to me that the little girl was someone they ---Kallen and Lelouch--- met while in school before the Black Rebellion stuff).
Oh yeah...and at the same time I whisper to him "Wait! Don't! What if someone else sees you!"
The little girl shakes her head and Lelouch with a sad expression turns away from the window and tells us to hurry as we're about to leave for good. So everyone else follows except for me who looks one last time at the clueless girl and I feel a little sad as I grab the last few bags and follow everyone else.

As we leave I make sure no one or no one's bags are left behind and I wonder about the future of the black Knights

=p well yeah....so the dream ends there...ahh most of the dream was more "visual" than I could put into words I guess but you can get the general gist of it? It felt so "awwww" for me XD DANGIT I need new ep NOW! LOL
