Well, I am twenty six years old. And I do not feel I am wiser every year, in fact, I have reasons to think that my IQ goes lower as every year that passes.

Of course this could not be true, because if it were, I’ll be nigh Down Syndrome by now. On the other hand I have the slight feeling that my luck does decrease with every year that I get older. But maybe is time to go to a shaman or something.

Sadly I got no gifts this year, which means that soon I must get a job, and a real one. So boring, so fucking boring. Anyway life is peachy and all’s good under heaven or some shit like that.

On other news, I won’t blog about anime anymore simply because no one reads this useless blog of mine and certain persons couldn’t be bothered by my opinions about why I like Higurashi ni Naku Koro ni, because it’s not the fact that the main male character clubs to dead a pair of girls in the first minute of the first episode and is not the girl with a tendency to wield an axe. I simply like that particular horror anime, and the fact that it has kawaii girls just add a little spice to the bloody mix.

If any of you has the multiquoted series called “Eureka Seven” then you should kindly lend me to it.

I have so much free time that I don’t know what to do with it.

I fucking hate Comicastle. They don’t have the last issue of Strangers in Paradise.

By the way, I proclaim myself member of the Haruhiis religion, if you don’t have an idea of what I am taking about, go and google “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya”

Things like that makes me wonder if I really am dumber every year, that show if so strange that I can’t help to laugh like crazy.

Zegapain

First: I won't post screenshots simply because I'm not at my home pc and I'm to lazy to post them in the first place.

Zegapain is the mecha anime of Sunrise for this season. To have Sunrise and mecha in the same sentence usually means "Gundam". I actually don't like some of the latest Gundam series or other Sunrise productions as the Mai-Something series. But luck for Zegapain, it has a director that hasn't work on Gundam, if fact, the director was co-director of Macross 7.

Ah! Suck it. Just watch it, for Cthulhu's Sake.

Anime overload...

Post totally redone.

So... This last week was a busy one. I mean, when you have broadband and free time the thing to do is a) play some MMORPG or b) download anime. Since I don't have Ragnarok On-Line or World of Warcrack or something like that. Animesuki was the place to be.

So many fansubs so little time. To my surprise, April is the month when a new season begins, in Japan that is. So there were many new series with a flashing 01 next to them. Most of them were a waste of time, and only 2 or 3 were good enough to claim a place in the harddrive.

WIthout further delays....

The most hyped anime over at AnimeSuki is "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu". If you take out the fact that the first episode is just an anime representation of how would an high school amateur movie would look. It has all the bad things one would expect for an amateur movie: terrible zooms, terrible lights, terrible acting, terrible actors, too many continuity errors, terrible camera angles, terrible effects, an alien witch, a combat waitress of the future and a talking cat. oh, and I'm not joking about the cat.

If the first episode was bad, don't be fooled and watch the second episode. The animation is awesome. In this episode we learn about Suzumiya Haruhi, who can't give a shit for regular humans. She just wants aliens, time travelers, sliders, espers and stuff like that, then there's Kyon who's a regular human, Yuki who is an alien witch and Mikuru who is a combat waitress from the future. All high school students.

In all, this is packs a surprise after a surprise layered with laughts.

The second noteworthy anime is "Ergo Proxy" It has angsty androids, a paranoid agent in a distopia called "Real", the cuttest pajama since Lain, and the cuttest android since who the hells know, and the most gay android since C3PO. AH, it also has monsters that infect androids with self-awereness.

This is something like GiTS meets Blade-Runner meats philosophy class. The bad thing is that this has "Paranoid Android" as it's ending. Song that I didn't like when it was in the radio, nor do I like it now.

The Sunrise Mecha anime of the season is Zegapain. It has green sparkles like Mai Otome and Mai Hime had. Not a good sign. It has mechas with a green tone that Bandai could sell. Another bad sign. It has the whole "world within a world" thing. Since the Matrix that became a boring cliché. Worst sing of all. It also has the standar mecha pilot that pwns all in the first episode. The token female lead that help him realize his power yadda yadda yadda. The school student council in the cloaked mothership. To damn cliché to be good.

I just hope that gigantic swords don't appear somewhere. Or rushed battles with bad cgi, or a rushed ending, or the uberpowerful secondary character stealing the spotlight or .... who am I kidding, this is a Sunrise Mecha anime for Cthulhu's sake.
I will label this as guilty pleasure.

Now, anime I won't watch: Soul Link. If by any chance you see this and wonder "haven't I seen this characters before?". Then, you shouldn't because they are the standar hentai anime characters. I doubt something good will come from this. There are better things to do.

High School Girls: Can you say fanservice? Repeat after me. F-A-N S-E-R-V-I-C-E. And not in the good sense. If you want to know how japanesse high school girls live their lives while showing fan services at every oportunity, this is your show.

Air Gear, by the same guy that did Tenjou Tenge. This could be another guilty pleasure. But I still have mixed feelings. It's a story of a bunch of guys with motorized skates doing jumps and hops while the female characters show fanservice (while crows cover them). It's a fairly normal "want to be the best of the best" show. Manga's better.

Now, for the "ooooooh" moment. Digimon.

How knew that beating digimon was an option. Say Dice, does this series fits into the previous series or is some kind of alternate dimension where you could beat digimon while the police is in your side?
