NEW MANGA:
@~ RECIPE FOR GERTRUDE ~@
story is pretty interesting, but story development wasn't that great. The romance part seems a little rushed to me x_x but I'm glad that they're not that mushy. I'm liking this so far. I find it very cute ^_^ And yay for a leading lady I don't dislike ^_^
@~ UNTIL DEATH DO US PART ~@
story concept was interesting (blind guy meeting clairvoyant girl) but I hate the girl and it has been kinda boring . . .made me go "duh" a lot of times x_x
@~ THE WORLD ONLY GOD KNOWS ~@
 concept was pretty unique but story's kinda lame x_X Characters don't impress me either . . . but I have to admit that if the leading guy takes his glasses off, he looks soooo cute *_*

MANGA CHAPTERS:
@~ FAIRY TAIL~@
YOUNG GRAY IS FREAKIN' ADORABLE!!!! GRAY IS ALSO FREAKIN' LOVABLE AND AWESOME IN THIS CHAPTER!!! KYAAAAA xD
And oh, I totally don't mind if it's true that Gray has a little crush on Erza. ERZA IS WORTH BEING CRAZY FOR!!!! xD Erza's so awesome!!!! She has Jeral, Sieg, Shou, Natsu, and Gray!!!! xD
I'm okay with Gray x Erza or Gray x Juvia . . . .BUT TOTALLY NO GRAY x LUCY PLEASE x_x I'd prefer Natsu x Lucy if ever I'm asked who I'd like Natsu to be paired with . . . . but I still don't like Lucy as an individual ^^; Only when she's with Natsu or Loki ^^;
@~ NABARI NO OU~@
Yoite x Miharu is screaming to be canon ya know x_x I don't like it that Yukimi lied to Tsukasa. I wanted a brotherly reunion. But I still love Yukimi . . . sadly Raikou had been mean to him x_x Stop being too loyal to your group Raikou x_x You're better off being buddies with Yukimi ;_; 
@~ DETECTIVE CONAN ~@
more Shinichi screentime???? Totally didn't expect that xD I thought things will go back to normal again! You are somehow improving Aoyama xD Please keep up the good work and add more progress on the REAL plot!

MANGA SCANS:
@~ BACCANO! ~@
saw some manga scans of the second Baccano! manga . . . I am still not used to the different art style, but they're still so awesome xD Ladd's such a bloody bishie and Chane's so damn hot and sexy! xD
@~ 07-GHOST ~@
saw some scans form the 6th volume of 07-ghost . . . . oh how awesome and lovely *_* I freakin' miss looking at pretty 07-ghost art xD
@~ VAMPIRE KNGIHT~@
saw volume 7 cover . . . the part with Yuuki is invisible to me . . . the part with Kaname looks cool . . . but the focus of the cover is even better . . .. MY TWINS!!!!!! *_* twins twins twins twins xD KYAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
@~ LA CORDA D' ORO ~@
saw a magazine cover with a sweet pic of Len and Kahoko . . . .. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE KAHOKO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! T______T I used to like the pairing because the violinist combo is nice and I want to see Len's romantic side BUT KAHOKO GETS ON MY NERVES!!! AAAAAAAHHHH!!!! ALL THE GUYS ARE TOO GOOD FOR HER T_T . . . I don't mind her ending up wiht Yunoki though . . . I hate that . . . GHEY!!! T_T

ANIME SINGLES:
@~ KYOURAN KAZOKU NIKKI~@
oh I didn't expect that Ginka's single will be released this early!!! KYAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!! I LOVE HIS SONG *_*
I shall play it over and over and over again xD Wheeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
I prefer a duet of his seiyuu with Kenichi Suzumura though . . . like the Hitachiins of Ouran's duet. . . I used to play it like everyday like it was my religion xD Haha!
@~ MONOCHROME FACTOR ~@
- I just realized that the ED was sang by Akira and Kengo's voice actors . . .so that's why the voices were kinda familiar xD 
- I also downloaded the character album of the main guy . . . .I just realized that Ono Daisuke has a nice singing voice *_*
@~ VAMPIRE KNGIHT~@
Just got the OP single . . .and man IT'S SO AWESOME! I love all tracks in it!!! And the singers even cosplayed as Zero and Kaname! OH THEY ROCK!!!! xD

What a delightful Tuesday night! I get to watch an episode from my number one obsession of all times and also from my current top obsession xD Hehe. Too bad I don't have time to capture many screenshots though x_x Anywayz . . . 

*** BACCANO! episode 16 ***
 

*** SOUL EATER episode 9 ***
 

Oh I freakin' love Baccano! and Soul Eater ^_______________________^

I feel like my usual method of procrastination to forget about the dreadful thing that's gonna happen tomorrow ;_;

Anywayz, I marathoned the ED versions of the different members of the family in KKN. My top favorite is still Ginka's song, which was featured in this post. Next is Ouka's song:

I don't know what genre it is, but it's action-oriented . . . my type of song xD Hehe. And I like Ouka's singing voice *_* I did a research on his seiyuu and I found out that he also voiced Honda form YGO and Shuichiro fom PoT. Interesting ^_^
I'm so happy that the releases of the albums are so fast xD I can't wait for Ginka's album ^_^
My next favorite is Gekka's song. Her seoyuu seriously has a beautiful singing voice.
Then followed by Chika's (nice, but kinda boring when listened over and over), then Kyouka's (wacky, but so . . moe?), then Yuka's (cute, that's all), then Hyouka's (cute, but pretty monotonous x_x), and lastly Teika's (bored me to hell). 

NEW TREASURABLE IMAGES DISCOVERED:





 
Now back to reality . . . . .*cries in a corner* . . . *sniff* I want Saturday to come. I miss my teachers and classmates from there ;_; and I am also thinking of going to the Mangaholix event at MoA.

I suddenly thought of checking out the Baccano blog a while ago . . . then later I find out that the episode 16's trailer is up! My internet connection sucks . . .but I endured it all . . . it was worth it *_*
 
Why should you be released on the day when my practicum begins? ;_; Anywayz:


Anywayz, the definite highlight of the episode:


I WANT EPISODE 16 NOW!!!! MY BELOVED IS THERE! OHMYGOLLYWOWNESS!!!!!!!!!!! xD

Bravo to the staff and creator of Baccano! You guys never fail to amaze and excite me! xD I can't believe this is gonna be over soon ;_; BAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW ;_;

Baccano episode 15 is made of awesomeness!!!! Even if I've seen it already, I still enjoyed it xD And Graham was love as usual xD Hehehe . . .
nabari, amatsuki

"Boredom is a sin!"

"People are given a limited amount of time, and they can't even enjoy it or drown themselves in pleasure. "

"Die! Die, boredom! "

"Boredom is life's complete state in order to welcome a coffee break. "

"Isn't she cute enough of a girl to make me think of that aphorism? "

"If we're wrong, then we're wrong. That's another spice of life, is what I'd like to advocate. "

"Not being able to talk is fortunate in a way. When people are speaking of sorrow, when they speak of joy and when they speak of anger, they use an abnormally large amount of energy. Even more when it's fear and pain. So in that sense, losing your voice and cowering in fear is . .. in a way, it's human instinct and self-defense mechanism to save your energy for the right time.  Hmmm . . damn. I just said something pretty smart. "

"All right, praise me, you guys. "*applause*

"Surprise is a reminder that the road ahead for humans lie in the darkness. "

"I won't be surprised even if you say that you're an alien from Mars! Now, hurry up! Let's see you grow eight arms! "

"To spin ourselves a jolly story, how about we join hands? To be precise, lose to me! "

"No, it's good, money is good. I'm not sure why, but everyone says money is good. "

"And! Seeing someone being manipulated by that money and meeting their ruin is the best! "

"CATCH! "

"You're amazing!  Damn! You've got me deeply moved! You're interesting and fun! You're also sad, Jacuzzi Splot! But I'm touched. "

"The difference between fun and sandness is paper-thin. But at this very moment, you have locked up that paper-thin difference in my heart. "
"Incomprehensibility is a part of human life. But what does this mean? I just can't understand it. "

"There is only one person I know who can match that pompousness! And that's Ladd! Ladd's pompousness is unwavering. And you're inexcusable for threatening it! Unless I don't at least make your pompousness less than Ladd's. "

"My dawn won't come, and I won't be able to see the sun! In any case, it'll stay as night. "

Of course I'm not gonna lj-cut this xD They are words of CRACK WISDOM! They should be read by the world! Bwahahhaha

Other episode 15 stuff:
- Confused Chane is cute xD And she wasn't loved before? Baaawww ;_;
- Claire is hott and crack xD Damn you for not visiting Firo. I like seeing my top two together *_*
- Jacuzzi x Nice is freakin' sweet ^_^
- Jacuzzi's also a selfless type . . . but he's so adorable for being like that. *glomps*

I want episode 16 *_* I miss Firo like hell! And also the other characters! And I need more crack Claire! And otp moments! And more of Graham's crack quotes! Hahaha xD 

now for nabari, then code geass, also amatsuki. Wheee xD

Episode 14 is finally subbed!!!! OH JOY!!!!!!!!!!! xD

Firo is my number one but Baccano is one of the few series wherein I don't need to be totally bias to my favorite character or pairing xD because the series itself is just that amazing and many of its characters are just that terrific xD

Like episode 14 for instance. Graham is the star of this one! I have already seen the RAW but the watching the subbed version still got me excited and entertained ^_^ How could Baccano still be surprising even if I'm already so spoiled on it xD

Graham's freakin' amusing and adorable! Great acting on him, Sugita Tomokazu-sama *_*

Some of my favorite Graham quotes:

" I want to live my life within the idleness and be corrupt!" *smashes stuff*

"You want to know my name? That means you admire me to a degree, then. Nevertheless, you hurt my feelings"

"If you hurt the feelings of someone you admire, then that means you don't understand the meaning of love!"

"And I can't forgive you who has put me into this unforgiving mood!"

"I'm striking because I don't like you! And I'll strike you even if I like you!"

"A sneaky thief and a sneaky thief, are we some sneaky thief family?" *rofl*

"'Life is fun.' Try chanting that 100, 000 times a day! You'll go crazy and all the pain will go away!"

"I have overcome sorrow and have evolved into a higher being!"

"My okays are so okay that they're too okay!"

" . . and we'll take our time to dismantle, dismantle, dismantle it! Ah, I'm getting excited! I'm getting really really excited!"

"Amazing! I'm a genius. . . . Sorry, I just wanted to use the word 'genius'"

"But, no! The no!"

"Fun is the opposite of sadness. In other words, heaven and hell, love and peace. LOVE AND PEACE!"

"Kidnapping a growing woman is exciting in itself but unfortunately, I'm into older women!"

"It's a wonderfully fun and sad talk, right? We'll be having fun, and they'll be sad."

"Not knowing and crying is being natural! I'm not a natural man, so I won't cry!"

"Anyway, I'm sad, but I'm sure you're all having fun."
Non-Graham related:
- Dominoes FTW! xD
- Firo not being able to get the wonder of dominoes is cute xD
- Chane . . .compared to a guinea pig? How cruel ;_;
- But I'm sure Huey truly loves her . . . since he would want her to be happy ^_^
- Chane is so loving ^_^
- Elmer had so many amusing titles xD
- I love that psycho Ladd xD

Oh, I didn't do screenshots anymore since I already posted them in this entry.
And no, am not lj-cutting this xD Such a holy crack . . . .must be known to the world xD LOL!

>> BACCANO
 

>> SOUL EATER
Well, Baccano's my forever obsession but current top obsession is Soul Eater xD haha, to those who don't know, I'm working on a Soul Eater fansite:
 

>> VAMPIRE KNIGHT episode 4
 

>> TOWARD THE TERRA 
2 to 4 of the Drama Theater of the Terra E fandisc were translated. These are my favorite parts:

>> OTHERS
I'm currently downloading the Shippuden movie . . . I am no longer that addicted to Naruto, so I am not really in a hurry to watch it . . .BUT MY BROTHER IS!!!! x_x He's been telling me to get it almost everyday x_x Oh well ^^; Now almost 15%. Hopefully it's good. Lots of my downloading are paused because of it ^^;
Haha, now whose fault is it that my brother has become a huge fan of Naruto? Of course it's none other than mine xD hehe. Among the Spring shows I've also influenced him on Yuugi-Oh 5D (totally expected!), Wagaya no Oinari-sama (totally unexpected!), and Soul Eater (of course xD).
I'm now having second thoughts if I should introduce to him more shows. He's scary when he demands me to let him watch something x_x

FINALLY!!! IT'S HERE!!! KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA xD
It was around 1 am when I noticed that the raw of this was released. You think I can wait patiently for this??? NOOO!!! I downloaded and watched it a.s.a.p. xD I screencaped like crazy afterwards. Then when I'm done uploading the screencaps and start to make a post here in LJ at around 3 am . . . my dadz caught still awake me >_> bummer T_T
So here I am hours later. Man, even if Soul Eater is my current addiction, Baccano is still the best because IT NEVER FAILS TO AMAZE ME!!!! xD 

This episode is filled with awesomeness and love =3 It's got Jacuzzi, Jacuzzi x Ennis, Claire, Chane, Claire x Chane, and crack Graham fanservice! xD Bwahaha! And of course its action scenes are still damn terrific and its comedy is still damn amusing xD Bwahehehe xD

Well, in case you haven't noticed, I've updated my layout here in LJ xD It's obvious who and to what I'm most obsessed with right now xD Hehe. I made most of the texts somewhat related to Kid. Like the "Emo" stuff . . .because that kid is emo xD And the guns, and so forth ^_^ I think there are still errors in the layout x_x But right now I'm too lazy to correct them ^^;

I'm also changing my set of icons. All of them are Spring Anime 2008 related icons ^_^ Except for two . . . I can't let go of the adorableness pic (too cute to be removed), the Petrelli Brothers icon (I'm still waiting for season 3!), and my old Firo icon xD Yes, Firo is still number one xD Ohohoho!

My mood theme is based on the series of the previous year though, specifically: Baccano!, Gurren-Lagann, and Terra E. They are my top anime favorites of last year *_* I lvoe them so much that even though I've already burned them, I still can't delete them from my hard drive xD Anywayz, I made a mood theme consisting of my top favorite characters of those series, namely Firo (of course!), Simon, and Soldier Blue =3 So you'll be seeing those three in my "Emo" pics xD Haha!

Next will be the Profile . . . which I'll do next time ^^; Too many to change on that one x_x 

[Off-Topic]: I've noticed that most of the Spring 2008 anime are now subbed xD I'm waiting for Toshokan Senshou then I'll be deciding which I'll be watching weekly xD Hehe.

[Off-Topic 2]: I hope the program that xtine06gave me will work on PC xD I wanna watch Soul Eater epsiode 3 a.s.a.p.!!! =3

I'm being hyper on the lovely shows that are premiering this season, but my number one love will always be Baccano!!! Ohohohoho!!! It never fails to provide me awesomeness xD

>> Holy Merchandise:
This is a pic of the special DVD box that'll be available in stores in Japan . . .
