Well, it’s been about four months…had a lot of stuff to do in real life. Anyhow, like usual, I did a little anime watching over this little hiatus.

First, I saw Scrapped Princess. It was one of the older anime that had a character that reminded me of Rosette Christopher from Chrno Crusade. In fact, I believe they were released about the same time. Basically, the anime is about a princess who is supposed to usher the world’s demise on her sixteenth birthday. So the royal family puts a bounty on her head and people are under the impression she was pure evil.

The anime’s alright. I enjoyed it for the most part. Although she really does remind me of Rosette. lol. But Scrapped Princess can’t compare to Chrno Crusade. I guess since the latter was a tragedy and SP didn’t really have any coupling. /shrug.

Next, I saw Shining Tears X Wind. It was based off a game by Sega for the PS2. The character designs are done by hentai artist Tony Taka. Kinda funny the game didn’t have any obscene content. The anime isn’t hentai either, of course. The story is about six high school friends who stumble in another world. Of the six, three are referred to as “soul bladers” and they can draw swords from other people when they’re “connected”. They fight to liberate the world from the decaying dark magic that is consuming it.

The anime was ok. In my opinion, the coupling was terribad. ); It seems that Kureha and Shiina (who were two of the first three female characters introduced) aren’t paired with any of the male protagonists. /sadface. IMO, Kureha was probably the best looking girl in the anime too.

Anyway, that wraps it up for today. I’ll try to update more often. I’ve got a game trainer I made for Magical Battle Arena awhile ago. I’ll put that up some time this weekend.

Back…again?

Gotta love those anime about vampires.

Gotta love those anime about vampires.

Well, shite, I haven’t been posting for almost…what…six months? What happened? WoW happened. Right after I finished making some changes to this site, 3.0 came out and well…nevermind.

So I started watching Rosario+Vampire three months ago. It’s about a human who gets stuck in a school for monsters. He meets a sexy girl who’s actually a vampire. He pretty much stays in the school because of her. Despite the horrible jokes and annoying fanservice, it is actually a decent anime. The manga is really good though. I haven’t seen the second season, Rosario+Vampire Capu 2, yet but I’d assume it would continue from where it left off and follow the manga more closely this time around (seriously…). The second season should’ve ended on Christmas but I’m not sure if subbers have finished it yet. Nonetheless, the manga is still ongoing.

Fanservice and boobies. Lots of it.

Fanservice and boobies. Lots of it.

I also started watching Ikkitousen recently. The plot recites an ancient Chinese legend, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Basically, the spirits of the warriors 1800 years ago are reborned in these Japanese kids who fight rival schools for…world domination. The story follows Sonsaku Hakufu who is one of the three conquerors from the legend. She’s stupid, well-endowed and plain annoying if you lasted through the dubbed version. She harbors a “dragon” that gives her immense amounts of power.

It is an old anime that started at 2003. That first season was total CRUD. The dubbed version can be found somewhere on the interweb if you search hard enough.

I’m on the second season, Ikkitousen Dragon Destiny, and the plot seems much more coherent. I also liked the transition of protagonists. Although Sonsaku is still an important character, she doesn’t appear as much. /cheer for Kan’u. I’m guessing the last season, Ikkitousen Great Guardians, will be back to Sonsaku as the center of attention. >:

BTW: DVD version of Ikkitousen has a lot of uncensored goodness. lawl.

Chaos;Head Anime Airs this Fall.

// July 26th, 2008 // No Comments » // Anime, Gaming, Random

Well, since I have a little gallery for the game, thought I might as well write something about this turning into an anime.

Chaos;Head is a japanese visual novel that revolves around an enigma with mysterious deaths. I haven’t played the game but the art seemed fun so I added that to the gallery.

ANN:

“The September issues of Dengeki Daioh and Comic Alive have announced on July 26 that Nitroplus and 5pb.’s Chaos;Head computer visual novel will be animated for television this fall. In this psychological suspense story, a shut-in teenager named Takumi becomes embroiled in a series of mysterious deaths around the Tokyo neighborhood of Shibuya. Nitroplus also co-developed the Demonbane and Blassreiter multimedia franchises.

Source: Moon Phase.”

And here’s Comic Alive’s site: http://comicalive.blog61.fc2.com/blog-entry-45.html.

Looks like they have an official homepage for that anime up too: http://chaoshead.jp/
The site seems to be incomplete…but you can actually click some parts of the splash screen. I’ll let you find that out.
