We're getting our new computer it two - count 'em, two - days! Yay! I have to watch the one episode of X that's still on my computer before then, just in case the transfering of the files doesn't work for some reason. (Yes, it's a necessity. I don't take chances with stuff like this)

Speaking of episodes...

I watched episode 17 of X the other day. My opinion: good, but not great. It was basically a flashback, though it had a lot of talking between a very naked and strung-up Kamui and a bored-looking Kakyou. Hmm... interesting? Well, sorta. That part was nice enough, but I'd already seen the rest of it. So bleh. I'll give the episode one thumbs up just for the nakedly strung-up Kamui.

I also watched episode 26 of Angelic Layer! The end of the series! My opinion: fantastic! Ooh, this one was good! The beginning was pretty cool, the fight and all... Athena vs Hikaru - we've been waiting through the whole show to see this one. It's been building ever since Misaki started playing Angelic Layer. Then when Athena used her finishing move... oh my god! I almost cried when Misaki started pleading out loud for Hikaru to get up! There's just something about that show... I don't know. It makes me want to cry, even though it's not that sad. It just seems so... agh, I don't know! It's a really good show! The series was incredible, and I'd tell anyone to watch it. Just perfect! And the little ending stuff during the song... hehe... especially Icchan and Ojirou, watching Misaki and her mother... hehehehehehe... I loved it! The perfect end to an awesome series! Two thumbs up! And I'd give three if I had enough hands!

Anyway. Yeah.

I got next to nothing else done yesterday. I'm reading David Eddings quite avidly again, though. I love his books. They are so worth re-reading. And re-reading and re-reading and re-reading... It goes on for quite a while.

I'm looking for more of Mirage of Blaze. I found episodes 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 9 available for download, so I'll need to find 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 13 somewhere. Then it's just a matter of giving KaZaA two or three years to download everything. Bleh.

Oh well.

Can't wait for the new computer! A bigger screen to watch anime on... hehehehehe...

Nekkid!Kamui is by far the only good thing about X17 . . . well, that and the touching reunion scene between him and Kotori. I don't know *why* they did a clip episode in such a short series. They could have spread ep. 16 out over two eps, given Subaru time to recover between losing his eye and fighting Seishirou, and put in some SXK yaoi goodness. ^_^

And, yes, I agree that the finale of Angelic Layer kicked major butt. I predict the series will be a major smash when it's officially released in America.
