Exclusive Insanity

Okay, so I've watched through the 10 episodes that I've been told I have to at least get through before I decide anything about Prince of Tennis. (Although I kinda skipped episode 8 after skimming ahead to see who won)

( And here are my impressions )

This entry deserved a new icon.

( Yurk! )

... I'd like to go back to thinking that this anime has no real yaoi now.

It is Saturday, I do not have to work, and I have no plans. I'm going to do NOTHING today.

It's going to be glorious.

Not exactly nothing, though - I'll be watching anime, for the most part. I still have the Greed Island Final OVA, five episodes of Prince of Tennis on my computer, episode four of subtitled Digimon Tamers, Haibane Renmei, and if all else fails, I have a whole crapload of Kyou Kara Maou episodes that I just haven't watched yet. And I do plan to pick up Harry Potter some time today, assuming the book store has copies left by the time I get up there.

Yeah, I'm pretty much set.

I watched the first episode of GI Final today, and it was - surprise, surprise - no different from the first Greed Island OVA. They might as well have made them one big OVA series. Not that I really care, as long as I get to watch everything.

I like Bisquit, too. She's odd, but I think she might be my favorite female on the show. Not that that says much, but then again, I did like Senritsu, so... Heh.

I have a question for anyone who's seen all of the anime. Now that I've seen all of the opening and ending themes, I am very curious... Where exactly does THIS picture come from? Because it sure looks like something from an opening or ending sequence.

I finished watching the Hunter X Hunter: Greed Island OVA. Gon and Killu are so cute. I cannot emphasize this enough. "I'm glad I met you." - "*I'm* the one who's glad I met you." I half expected Killua to say that last bit out loud and start up a fight over who was most glad he'd met the other. But no, he had to be all quiet and angsty and confused. And CUTE.

I'll enjoy the Greed Island Final OVA, when I get to watching it. Which might even be today. Or I might save it for the weekend, since I once again have Saturday and Sunday off.

I spent last night with V, which was excellent. We went for dinner and talked about building self confidence, and then went for a walk and talked about Europe. No definite plans, of course, since we're not planning it all out until next summer at least - just dreams at this point. The sky was cloudy but it wasn't too dark, and we visited the elementary school for a while to go on the swings.

It was a fantastic evening.

I didn't mess up *too* many times on the radio show yesterday, and overall, it turned out pretty okay. I guess I'd judge it a success.

I'm all caught up with Death Note now, too. I'm a little behind with Tsubasa Chronicle, actually, but I'll probably watch an episode or two of that today. I'm *very* behind with Kyou Kara Maou, but that's okay. At some point, I'll probably end up sitting down and just watching a bunch of episodes. And it takes a long time for episodes to come out, so it's good that I've got a large supply of them.

However, I do intend to watch at least one episode of the Greed Island OVA today, since I won't get to hang out with V. I have to work at four, but that's no big deal.

V and I went to see Howl's Moving Castle in theaters last night - that was fun. I enjoyed it more in English, surprisingly. They did a very nice job with the dub. And V really liked it, so it's all good.

Fun times for all. Excellent.

I watched the last episode of the Hunter X Hunter TV Series earlier today. As usual, I have some thoughts, and since I was at work and had a little time, I decided to organize them. So, here are my thoughts on the series.

( Hunter X Hunter: My Comments )

On a completely unrelated note, does anyone know of any good songs that express a love/hate kind of thing?

Work sucked last night, but it looks like I'll be able to be on the radio next week... or at least sit in on the session. It'll be fun.

Since I was kind of bored at work, I wrote out more of those little random snippets for Hunter X Hunter. Anyone who has a couple of minutes to waste can check them out here. Some spoilers for up to episode 36, just in case anyone on my friends list is in the process of watching the anime and hasn't said anything about it.

I just watched episode 40. Haha, Wing is training monster-boys. I love Wing. I loved him in the manga too, but I love him more in the anime. And we got glimpses of Kurapika and Leorio! Just glimpses, but still! I liked the shots of Leorio being all studious. He's awesome. And poor Kurapika needs to train more or he'll never get a job.

Anyway, that made me happy. Not that it's not ridiculously easy to make me happy, but still.

I work again tonight, and then I have tomorrow off. Yay!

Just watched episode 25 this morning... I know it seems like I'm going slow, but I need to take time out every so often to chatter at people and check email and... you know... eat? Sleep?

I might just be failing in my duties as a rabid anime fan. But hell, this way I'll have anime to watch for a long time. So it is all good.

I work today from ten to four at the Sa Hali store. It's not a bad shift, and I get a half hour break for lunch, so it is all good. Besides, the work isn't hard and I'll have company. Overall, I think the Sa Hali store might be better to work at than my usual place of employment.

I still haven't worked a 4-9 shift there yet, so I'll have to wait until after Friday before passing judgement.

I'm going to be done with the Hunter exams in a few episodes... I'll be so sad when that's over. Impending separation of the four main characters. I know there's still the rescuing Killua thing to go before they split up, but still. We won't see Kurapika for like ten episodes after. And even longer for Leorio...

At least there will still be Gon and Killua. Cuteness will sustain me.

I actually didn't spend as much time with the DVDs yesterday as I suppose I could've... I had plans already anyway, and then ended up chatting for a while. I know the next episode I'll be watching is one that didn't happen in the manga, so I'm looking forward to it.

Fun stuff. I'm such a geek, and I love it.

I got to hang out with Sarah yesterday, which I haven't done in a while. That was fun, and I got to see her new house. Which is NICE. Very nice. I hope I can live in a place that nice when I move out. The area seems to be pretty decent, too.

Not much going on in my life, which is a good thing at the moment, because it gives me more time for DVD viewing. Nothing is better than having a ton of episodes on DVD and a lot of time to watch them whenever you wish.

Also, I have to note that this song is way too cute.

Don't you guys hate me? I have a new meme every couple of days. This one came from catia
