My New Year’s resolutions

Celebrate the New Year

nullSince Crusader had made his, I’ve decided to make on and then tomorrow I’m gone to school and will not update for the rest of the week. Welcome, 2008!!! (And that also means that school is starting and I won’t have a lot of time to update). Here are my New Year’s Resolutions.

Making New Year Resolutions

c78243ad49589c14d3f95c88753.jpg

I apologize for not wishing you all a Merry Christmas or whatever religious or cultural holiday you subscribe to during the winter solstice, but now that my family has drunken themselves silly and my younger brother has had is birthday party I am free to return to my normal schedule.

Besides I have spent enough time with my recently born cousin that she no longer cries when I hold her, one of the things that sucks about studying away from home is that you miss out on such grand occasions. Seeing as how the New Solar Year is upon us it is high time I come up with resolutions for January 1st, 2008.

D.Gray Man Episode 61-64

Santa Cross

I know that Christmas’ over, but Santa Cross is watching…

Note to readers: I will not be posting this week because of school work on Wednesday and Thursday and it’s also that Japan is not going to show D.Gray Man either due to the New Year’s Celebration programmes they have there. So bear with it and currently no pictures for Episode 64 for DGM because it’s not subbed yet. (Watch it on TV in my country, they have it and completely subbed.). And a happy New Year to all people around the world, goodbye 2007, hello 2008.

Gundam 00 should learn from Bamboo Blade and the anime blogosphere more!

Look at the piece of moe beauty that you cannot find from Gundam 00

In a world where the strongest prevails, and the error prone hurting the strong because they just cannot get the girls, there is only one truth: cute girls holding kendo sticks are win. Robots, as much as they are GAR, cannot beat the greatness of the girls bashing out “meh” faster than a Meister trying to fashion some beautiful move. I was actually going to write an entry about the thirteen episode of Bamboo Blade and how much I will want to swoon over Azuma, Tamaki and all the other Bamboo Blade girls. However, just when I am about to write, Crusader came online and I had an inspiration.

I started to think about Gundam 00 (like it’s the most natural thing to do) due to his great rhetoric on the show. Something sparked in my mind. Will Bamboo Blade’s antics and our fellow anime blogosphere help the series more or somehow make it tolerable for human consumption?

Genshiken 2, Episode 12- Final Episode and Series Impressions

genshikenmain12.jpgYes, I take every opportunity to put Ogiue fanservice on the front page of this blog.

Ah the wonderful ride has finally come to a close for this season. This final episode is mostly focused on Sasahara and his struggles in getting a job once again. We don’t really get a final resolution to everything out there, but it was a good episode nonetheless. After the summary I have included the usual episode impression as well as a final series impression following that.

Gundam 00 – 12: The Halberd Revolution

snapshot20071227192211.jpg
So it takes three Azadistani to burn a flag, one to do it and two to shoot wildly into the air…

So I have just finished with family gatherings and should be returning to some normalcy by the end of the week. Still Sunrise didn’t feel festive this year and gave us all a big lump of coal in the form of this episode since Saji and Louise are still getting a crap load of screen time. Even if Ms. Wang had a change of dress, I wanted a whole fashion show this Christmas. I feel ripped off, bloody bastards…
