Lolli Lolli Oh Lollipop

It seems like I've gotten somewhat back into the activity of watching anime again.

Tiger & Bunny
( Cut to be safe... )

No.6
( ...cuz I don't want to be victim of angry fangirls. )

Ao no Exorcist
I've only seen the first few eps of this, but I'm liking what I've seen so far! The animation's really nice. :O And it's been a while since I've watched a full-on shounen series. I think the last one was Soul Eater...I don't know if T&B counts?

Also, haha wtf @ Mephisto Pheles's character design. He's awesome. XD

Bounen no Xamdou
Haha, I finally tried catching up to it...but only got about 2 eps further than wherever I last left off. ^^; Maybe I'll finish it up this weekend during my sewing party with eeveil.

That being said, I think I need to update my MyAnimeList or start a new one somewhere on my comp. I have so many series I've yet to finish. :x

Meme yoinked from naoekun, done by everyone by now. XD

I tried to not to pick the obvious ones like Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo or FLCL that we all know are awesome.

Omagad, it's December already! @_@;

Christmas card reminder! If you'd like one, please leave your address here!

:: Yay~ I'm getting used to drawing with a tablet!

:: Whoa, so work says it's okay I take an entire month off. I'm kind of surprised. I do feel a little bad leaving them for so long though...

:: Aahhh 07-Ghost anime trailer!! Their voices sound good, everyone seems to fit. The animation seems decent, too. *EXCITED* *o*


:: Speaking of anime, I think I'll also check out these new series:
East of the Eden - It's Honey & Clover's artist! The premise seems interesting enough. I mean nekkid Japanese man with only a gun and a shitload of money on a phone saves a Japanese girl in the States. Whut. XD The background music on the site sounds really nice, too~

Shangri-La - One name: Range Murata. Global warming has caused a futuristic Japan to have a tropical climate. To try to make temperatures more bearable, a city tries to create an urban forest but of course there's anti-government organizations against this, etc etc.

Pandora Hearts - I haven't read the manga yet but it sounds interesting and dark and mysterious which is right down my alley. Plus the main dude's so cute. XD;

*EDIT* Lol, forgot about these two.
DOGS: Bullets and Carnage - Do I really need to say why? I do hope it's good though. >.>;

Full Metal Alchemist - Same as above.

And maybe these if I'm bored enough:
Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ - I'm not expecting much but I seem to like this kinda stuff, lol. Guy accidentally witnesses a murder and also got a glimpse of a mysterious organization's top assassin's face who happens to be a young girl. And well...instead of being killed himself, he gets his memory wiped and trained to become the organization's next assassin.

K-On! - It just looks cute. ^^; Four girls try to save their school's music club. It kind of reminds me of Suzimiya Haruhi which I've never watched but I dunno...it could be good?

Guh, why am I still up? I shouldn't have taken that nap when I got home from work...

LOL. WOW. I think Graham's up there in the loony bin w/ Ladd. XDD; Baccano! 14 was quite amusing. Firo was amazingly adorable when he couldn't understand what was so fun about dominoes. XD

And WTH at Kurenai 6? THEY FREAKIN' BROKE OUT INTO SONG. Like it was a freakin' MUSICAL. Only to be shot down in the end by Benika-san. Loool.

:: I'm over Death Note but XD!! These are so adorableee!!! Click me and me. I can't stop aww'ing.

:: Mm, so I ended up watching two series of the series mentioned in unlock's post not too long ago.

Soul Eater
This was kinda like...Bleach meets D.Gray-Man? I dunno, I could be wrong cuz I dunno that much about the latter. But Kishins are totally Hollows imo. XD From the first ep, it had awesome action, comedy, fanservice (who wouldn't want some of that?), and d'aww cute moments. I also love the art! It's like Nightmare Before Christmas but cuter. The fighting scenes were cool and fast while taking on different angles and perspectives which was a nice change and gave it whoa dynamic-ness. Story-wise, I TOTALLY saw what happened coming, oh well. Soul also looks like he could be a member of the Gorillaz. Haha. XD I think I'll follow this one for the action and hope the story isn't of Maka and Soul finding NINETY-NINE more souls...

Nabari no Ou
BOBBLEHEADSLOL was my first thought. Second thought was "Oh god, it's a pretty boy version of Naruto. >_>;" So I REALLYYYYYY hope the rest of the eps aren't going to have the apathetic Miharu training to be ruler of Nabari aka NINJA LAND...that is IF he accepts the role. He, of course, isn't keen on the idea and apparently has a talent of disappearing at the most opportune times and can use his...ghei uke charms to get outta things. XD But the action scenes were surprisingly pretty cool. It was fast-paced, seamless, and bloody here and there. Other than the boys (not including the stereotypical fugly looking baddies), the art is pretty, too. There are scenic scenes that have the hand-drawn watercolored effect seen in Miyazaki films. And when it isn't that, there's still a good quality to the art and subtle use of CG except the characters falling totally reminded me of Matrix, lol. Oh and I'm starting to like Kouichi, I think the megane are doing it for me. XD;

Thinking of checking out:
Allison & Lillia
It's based on the a pair of novels by the same author who did Kino's Journey which I adored so I'm expecting this to be along the same vein. It's about a girl and a guy, Allison and Wil, who take to the skies to try to rescue this old man they befriended while also looking for a treasure that supposedly will give peace to their warring world.

Kure-nai
From reviews, this seems good for a drama, more subdued series. Basically a guy works as a general contractor and gets a job from a shady woman in the form of protecting a brash, bossy, mature-beyond-her-years rich little girl who had been locked away by her father since birth but escaped thanks to said shady woman. Said girl starts living with him in his apt and well awkwardness, lessons learned, etc. ensues I'm assuming.

Uhm...so Babelfish fails and my Spanish isn't as good as I'd like it to be. All I can really make from this post is that Darker Than BLACK was "one of the series [the poster] liked a lot from 2007" and that there's going to be an OVA coming out March 28. Is there anything else? XD I ♥ whoever can translate this~

Linky to post. It's the latest one titled Darker than Black , la puerta del cielo.

Lol. I am so gonna start watching Make Me a Supermodel for all the GAY. Ronnie's so cute w/ Ben. And damn, tonight's episode so far is HOT. Especially with Perry and Casey. Omg. They made forehead licking look sexy! XD

I don't think I need a spoilers warning. I'm sure everyone has read Death Note by now.

I just watched ep. 1 raw. Yup. I couldn't wait till it was fansubbed. I was too curious. But anyway~ It was so odd seing Raito animated! @D@ I kept on thinking "TAMAKI!!" EVERY. TIME. Raito spoke. DX He has a patheticly silly evil laugh, ahaha. That one scene where he went on his killing spree was so overly dramatic I couldn't stop laughing; the music, the flourishes of the hand that shouldn't be there cuz he was prolly writing in Japanese, the fast motion. Hahaha. *tears in eyes* I will be uber amused when L shows up cuz L is InuYasha! Oh dear lord. XD

I'll watch D.Gray-Man when the fansub comes out cuz I don't know that one as well and I'd rather not be lost and have to read/watch it again to get it.

Wow, I'm behind on Ouran. I kinda got over it. :x I'll catch up eventually. ^^; Dude, same w/ NANA as well, but that one's cuz I haven't had time to watch it.

Mm. I finished Peacemaker Kurogane last nite. It was a pretty decent anime and I love the artwork. I felt the ending/last few eps were a bit rushed and I also wished that they had more closure on some of the other charac's stories. I felt soooo bad for Suzu...but ew, stop carrying Yoshida's head. X_x; And apparently Tetsu suddenly got some mad skills cuz he only got a cut ear from fighting Yoshida. @D@;

I ♥ Susumu *wants to cosplay him cuz he's a cooler ninja than Naruto!*, Souji *or him cuz he gets to hold a piggy but then cosplaying Shinpachi would be cute too okmuststopthistrainofthought*, and Saizou ze piggy. :3 Btw, whotf is Okuzawa Eisuke, the grave who Tetsu and Yamanami-san went to visit before the Gion Matsuri?

*goes off and starts to watch GSeed now and spams happy Souji icon*

ahh...i just finished watching trinity blood. i'd hafta say the art is AMAZING. @_@ tres is hawt, too (who cares if he's a robot >:|) but the ending was weak. =( why do most anime endings suck? grr..now i'm wondering how the novel/manga is like. >.> makes me wanna cosplay someone from the series, too. hahaha. i hated how the pope was such a wuss, lol. well he did get a -bit- better in the end. and why did ion go w/ abel? O_o i wanted him to meet up w/ ester again cuz he's so cute. wahh...i also wish i could draw like that. *flops around*

today was very productive. i kinda lost interest in RO for the time being and didn't really feel like going on aim as usual so i resorted to watching all 12 eps of loveless. i had started it b4 but stopped at like the 2nd or 3rd ep. dunno why i con't, but i did. i hafta say i <3 the artwork and the eyes of the characs. and i think i've become a fan of boy and cat ears. =^.^= oh and it's shounen-ai but kinda w/ pedofiling, har har? the bad thing is, i'm confused. @_@ why are there fighters and sacrifices? i don't see the point of them...not like they're fighting for a greater cause...then wth happened in the end!? seimei wants to kill his otoutou? D: and the reason why he died is still a mystery...oh and u shed ur ears and tail when u get de-flowered? haha. if so...kouya did it w/ yamato...yuri!!! lol. ah iono...i liked it for its eye-candy and purdyness but plot-wise...someone fill me in. >.<

oo that reminds me, some chick was cosplay ritsuka at AX this year. but i didn't get to take her pic. she looked exactly like him, too. =(
