Now what’s the dealio with this latest concoction from those repugnant blisters over at Kyo-Ani? Episode two, three and four were all the same episode. Granted, there were different outfits and a few unanimated scenes in three and four that was not there in episode two, but essentially they are the same episode. I get that they are trapped in an infinite time loop and there’s some sort of significance to the number 15,500 which I will never understand… but are they seriously kidding me? more…

I was organizing my closet today and I stumbled upon volume five of Shoujo Fight. I was practically estatic as I had finished reading volume four about two months ago. I wasn’t aware I owned more. My happy schoolgirl squeals made it hard for me to read more than a few pages at a time, but once my spasms died down I just lay on my bed staring at the pretty cover. more…

Here we have Touka getting wet.

Episode 13 was worse than episode 12 in terms of time-wasting and pissed me off in every way possible. The animation was superb, considering it was from a dying studio, but it wasn’t enough. I wanted more mahjong play and less scenes of Touka getting excited and wet from absolutely nothing. I mean, seriously, what was getting her so worked up anyways? Nothing happened! Haramura Nodoka won twice and gained like 10,000 points. That’s not story progression, that’s not turn-of-event, there was nothing significant to it. It was just Nodoka winning twice in a boring uneventful game.

Saki slowly moves her hand up for the oncoming convulsions.

Was there really a point to this episode besides giving me blue balls? I don’t think so. And what really pissed me off was that they didn’t focus the anime on the real main character: Touyoko Momoko. Momoko is Tsuruga’s secret weapon. They’ve been biding their time just for these last two rounds. When the professional mahjong bitch is going on about how the unfair rules favor “special children” Momoko is amongst the sillhouettes. So who exactly is she?

I’ll tell you what, Momoko is a ninja. There, that’s what’s up.

It blows. What else can I say?

I literally dragged three of my buddies to go watch this movie with me so I wouldn’t feel so foolish going alone, and all I could wish was for it to end as soon as possible. The CG and action was great, don’t get me wrong. But I didn’t even like the first movie, so what made me think that this was going to be good anyways?

This movie kind of made up for the fact that the first movie lacked action by being nothing but action. What little story there was present is hidden underneath layers of heavy CGI and military gimmicks which make life just that much harder for me to live through. There were nothing but lame jokes, apparently to appease the first graders sitting in the front rows.

There was a hot girl and the only role she played was eye candy. 75% of the movie “featuring” Megan Fox was of her ass. I assume she plays an integral part of the story progression since she did end up taming the Decepticon that ultimately led them to the old fart who knew everything. Still, they could have done this in a number of other ways, and they didn’t. What was with the cube sliver? Where did it go in the end? If Megatron can be revived with a simple shard, then couldn’t Optimus as well? Did that thought ever cross anyone’s mind? In any case, main boy dies and comes back, Optimus dies and comes back… lame.

This movie was lame. Michael Bay hasn’t produced a good film since The Rock and Bad Boys.

While most hip young people were masturbating to comics by Tamaoki Benkyou back in the early 21st century, I was eating through my family’s collection of Chef Boyardee from post-Y2K scare like crazy and accumulating needless amounts of energy that I needed to waste on something… anything. It was actually 4 years after that when I of course stumbled across TAGRO-sensei. more…

What the heck is this crap?

So my friend laharl was kind enough to send a message my way that he’s discovered a software developer in Japan called minori, that has banned foreign ISPs from stealing the dirty images off their site. If you didn’t know, the Japanese version of Congress –something called diet pepsi– is going over or has already passed some new legislations that ban adult games from having any of the following: loli, schoolgirls, orgies, tentacles, guro, rape, beastiality, incest and everything else you’ve masturbated to for the past ten years. If you’re one of the few people that can still access that page without the use of proxies, then by all means feel free to go ahead and browse through their lineup of… well they don’t really have anything do they?

Let’s be honest here, who are they trying to fool? If you ask me, I think it’s a publicity stunt. Their games, as far as I remember, are below mediocre and spend quite a bit of time around an area called boring as shit. I see no other reason for them to block foreigners from seeing the terribly offensive school girl outfits and other generic gimmicks that make up the majority of their shitty titles. So of course, are they really in a position to be attempting this? Yes. If there is an ulterior motive behind it, something I like to consider jumping on the political bandwagon. I notice search queries for minori games on certain p2p’s are going up, and if internet averages are a microcosm of the world then this whole stunt may be proving beneficial for these guys.

Anyways, it seems minori isn’t the only one to try this… But why does it seem like only people that have developed really boring games like Wind ~a breath of heart~ are the ones who have the audacity to say, “go away foreigners”? I mean as far as I know, most of the software developers whose games I actually enjoy still have their traffic open for raping by foreign devils; and as far as I give a shit, this suits me just fine.

In more important news, Ed McMahone, Michael Jackson, and Farrah Fawcett all died today. It is also coincidently my sister’s birthday. So without further ado, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SIS!
