So, in addition to seeing the end of Uninhabited Planet Survive (you may have noticed the very, very happy reaction to that - I'm still on a high, I swear. It was excellent), I also received my mail from Amazon.ca. So, now I have volumes two and three of Hikaru no Go - twenty more to go! - and the second Card Captor Sakura movie on DVD.

I intend to watch the dub of that today. After class, of course. I should be working on the second stage of that project, but I'm lazy. No one needs to remind me of this when I'm freaking out next week trying to get it done. I already know, trust me.

So, yeah, yesterday was pretty decent. Good anime, class was okay, and stuff came in the mail. S'all good.

I didn't get that drabble finished, though,

sugahlei... I'm sorry! I can't think of a way to end it! Meeeeeh...

I will somehow get it finished today. I have lots of time, and it must be put to use. The drabble must be done!

And then I'll move on to the next one, because I so have to write a bunch.

EDIT: Just saw the cast list for the dubbed Kyou Kara Maou... MONA MARSHALL is Wolfram?????? I'm... not sure if I can imagine that, really. If I ever see the dub, all I'm going to think when I hear Wolfram talk is "OMG, IZZY!"

It may take some getting used to.

all I'm going to think when I hear Wolfram talk is "OMG, IZZY!"

and 50 other characters... o.O;; I've seen a few things where Mona managed to -not- sound like Izzy. There's a slightly less intellectually stuck-up voice that comes off more as pouty... which I can see fitting Wolfram. But... it could go the other way, too. It looks like the release is in mid-April. I'll have to hurry with my KKM fic. I'd been hoping to see the end of the series before I worked on it any more, but I'm feeling the urge to get my foot in the fanfic door before the inswelling of fen.

And I -give up-. Would you please link me the English cast listing? I'm curious about the others and can't find it listed anywhere. Although I did find this promising review: http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews2/disc_reviews/3776.php And it appears they're breaking the 39 eps onto 9 (count that: nine) DVDs. Mou... *pouts* The Digital Deities know I'll be buying them, but NINE? I think the Fruits Basket release forever spoiled me. Considering that KKM season 1 is significantly longer than FB, I'd have been thrilled with seven and satisfied with eight.. but nine? That breaks down to three discs with 5 eps and six discs with 4. I admit, it's waaay better than Inuyasha's 3 eps per disc (o.O;;;), but I'm spoiled and penniless until I start my career in a year and a half.

Right... so link me, pweaeze?

Whenever I hear Mona Marshall, I think "OMG, IZZY!" It's like a standard. ;) I'll be hearing her play Syaoran in a short while, though - maybe it'll be different then.

I found the English cast listing on the Kyou Kara Maou LJ Community. (http://www.livejournal.com/community/kyou_kara_maou) I haven't seen it on my usual source (Anime News Network) yet, though.

And, FMA is only four episodes per disc as well... It's not great, but it could be worse, I guess.

*covets your sleep sounds good icon and adds* I -liked- CCS. Sure, it's all very shoujo, but it's cute! And Touya/Yuki is just sweet. The 2nd movie's very nice. (Mona's in there, too, I think, btw...) *OD's on brain sugar just by thinking about the ending*

I never did get into HikaGo (nor Prince of Tennis, for that matter). As busy as I am... I think that's for the best. 'Game' anime catch my attention less, I suppose.

Hehehe... I really like this icon. Ed and Al are so cute! Plus, I use it a lot. ;)

I like CCS, too. I have the whole series on DVD with wackysubs, and now both movies on DVD with official subs and dubs. I love Touya/Yukito and Syaoran/Sakura - both very cute couples. I've had the second movie on a VHS tape with subs for a while, but I wanted to have it on DVD. (if only to hear Mona Marshall as Syaoran)

Hikaru no Go is one of the best anime I've ever seen, both plotwise and character-wise. The author is a genius - I aspire to write like that one day. It takes a while to get into the series, but oh my god, is it ever worth it. The characters are *excellent*. And it's insanely slashy, too - which is always a nice bonus. I highly recommend it if you ever get the chance. (and hey, the series isn't licensed yet, so you can still get it burned on DVD for $6.00 per DVD if you ever watch and like it)

Prince of Tennis, I've never seen and have no real interest in seeing. I've heard it's on crack, though.

Izzy is going to be Wolhram? AHAHAHAHAHA. That'll be weird but awesome.

That's what I was thinking!

lol It's still downloading for me, isn't that sad? It's at 74% though, so hallelujah!!

Have you ever heard of Yakitate! Japan? It's really great!

I have never heard of that - what is it?

Hee. Almost downloaded? :D That is excellent.

There's a promo pic to sell ou on ;)

It's a new show that's funny as hell!! I am enamoured with it ^__^ Lots of slashy goodness and whatnot!

I can't view the pic. ^^;

I want to write more UPS drabbles and all before I get into a new series, anyway. ;) So I'll hold off on downloading new stuff for a while.

Dear gods, lets hope Wolfie doesn't sound nerdy like Izzy O.o
I think Mona did a voice in Bebop...that's the only dubbed series I own that she's in (aside from Digimon, of course)...I'll have to rewatch whatever ep she's in again...
Someone needs to submit that cast list to ANN, methinks ^^

I always think of Izzy whenever I hear Mona do a voice. Can't help it.

I just watched the second CCS movie, and she was Syaoran in that one. Still thought of Izzy. ^^; It wasn't a very good dub, either...
