tempestuously: ([geass] the sacrifice was much too high)
I return as usual to find my family completely fucked my computer system and went through my doujinshi. I hope they enjoyed that.

Caught up on Heroes. Still hate Claire. Will hate her even more if she gets her father killed, who's the only reason I even tolerate her arcs. I don't really like the twins either, though now I get that one CFUD joke. Don't like flying boy either. I do love the adorable domesticism of the M-House with Mommy Matt, Daddy Mohinder and daughter Molly. Even though Matt is the WORST PARENT EVER. Not digging the Katrina thing they have going on with the New Orleans Heroes. Oh and I love Hiro's side arc because it's just cute.

We also watched Kyou Kara Maou, which could be problematic considering the current issues Geneon is having. Dammit I just wanted to see the volume where they go back to Earth. But I was content to have Yuuri being a total sap over Wolfram getting kidnapped, and Wolfram pretending he wasn't eating it up. I also bitched about Julia because that's what I do. I think I have an inherent dislike of any anime/manga characters named Julia. They are always plot devices and never have personalities. Yet everyone ends up falling for them. Boo.

Weekend ended with one-hour traffic delay on the Interstate!
tempestuously: (decorative: timeless bond)
So I could talk about recent events but I can't decide whether "Air Terror Scare" or "Terror in the Sky" is more retarded. Soon we won't be able to bring carry-on luggage at all. If that happens I'm not flying because I don't go nowhere without my laptop.

I don't think I spent near enough time emphasizing the utter crack that was the Yuuri vs. Conrad fight in KKM. They build us all up for something cool, and it's basically Yuuri making an ass out of himself as he beats Conrad's sword. Conrad just kinda stares for a while. I made the mistake of watching the dub first and dubbed Conrad's voice hurt my soul. Emotion he can not do. Then we got Cheri and her attempts to make a move on that chick from Big Cimmaron. My friends really wanted to make a drinking game for the mention of "Cimmaron." Tom had the most fun with it. William and Graham enjoyed more of the random crotch shots and creepy innuendo of Cheri. I think we all agreed that it was the most pathetic fight of all time. I found it all the more amusing that Yuri voices two characters who do their best to get thrown into humiliating fights. I don't know. I expected more from the fabled evil!Conrad arc I heard tale of back when KKM was first coming out. They should have let the sheep fight.

Yuri's voice actor idol is Steve Blum. In other words, Sasuke's idol is Orochimaru. Discuss.

I got to stop falling for stupid teeny-pop music because I catch it in really good AMVs. This one was part of a tribue to John from Weed.

So the visit to Tom's ended up occupying all my time, with us usually getting home around 2 a.m. or later every night and him needing to hog the computer like a great greedy thing of greediness. Moral of this story, Nayami hates spontaneity whenever it's brought up by people other than her and Tom.

Let's do some reviews. Yay.

X-men 3: Nice explosions and some eye candy action. Little else. Angel was pretty.

Host Club 8: Needs more gay and less plot. Good thing Tamaki and Haruhi are so cute.

D-Grayman Volume 1: Awesomeness. I think I will actually enjoy this more than FMA because of the relative sanity of its fandom (from what I've seen) and the inclusion of the demons/exorcists. I'm very interested in more and right away. Kanda is hot. Allen is angsty. Akuma make me cry. The Earl makes me want to crawl under my bed and never never come out.

Angel Sanctuary 13: ZAPHIKEL! I really hate Sevothtarte. I don't care what its backstory ends up being. He's on par with Nakago with me right now when it comes to villains I want to disembowel. Anyone who hurts Raziel must die! Rosiel continues to compete with Alexiel for hottest manga girl-guy thing and I would be crushing if I knew exactly what I was crushing on. Setsuna/Kira/Katou are a melt-worthy trio. (See icon!) Again, love Setsuna and Sara separate. When they're together, I want to choke them both with Kira's pendant. I need 14 now! I repeat ZAPHIKEL!

Kyou Kara Maou 24-27: Conrad's past makes me care about him slightly more but now I am even more creeped out by the ConYuu shipping because not only is it almost a father/son thing but Yuuri's part-Julia. It kinda hurts my head. Blond Murata is hot and a completely different person. I can't wait to see his mazoku side. Episode 27 is just too insane for explanation. I will never again let a dubbed VA take a seiyuu's scream. There is just no comparison. Poor Wolf. I need to watch the other volume I bought now.

Anime project for this week is Princess Tutu. Wish me luck.


Ack, forgot to mention that [livejournal.com profile] theorganization is the best KH rp ever, with some of the most amusing version of the Org members that I've ever seen. I think Marluxia and Saix earn all my love for this one. And Xemnas because he's smarmy.
tempestuously: (vonheston-kkm)
Don't know if final got through since every fax in the world was on the fritz today, the mouse decided to die halfway through printing and my entire parking lot was blocked off due to some event. The confirmation page says my stuff sent at 3:55 p.m. I'm going to guard that page with my life for when my professors try to tell me that I didn't complete the class requirements. Dad was pissed at me too. Said I should have finished everything earlier, regardless of the fact that I was dead tired and still tutored his son every day.

Went out for relief shopping and birthday shopping. Bought my brother a game and picked up a new memory card for my camera, Kyou Kara Maou 1 and Fullmetal Alchemist 3. While I have issues with Mona Marshall voicing the Wolfram, being that he sounds too whiny and not quite effeminate enough, I think that Yuuri's VA will make a splendid Sasuke in Naruto. I was hesitant because of his voice when he's freaked out or just in a jolly mood, but when he's snarking at Wolfram or when he's channeling the Maou, he is one badass man. He'll pull off the Avenger role without any trouble. I'm really looking forward to seeing, or rather, hearing him in action. In Marshall's favor, she may not be able to sound like Wolfram, but she is still a marvelous actor and portrays his moods with just the right amount of shock,rage and frustration. She always makes me laugh. But what's up with Conrart? That's just weird. I need to watch more recent KKM.

Also got my cosplay wigs. The one I need for Yayoi is too short, only slightly longer than my hair now. The Cagalli one will have to be trimmed. Both look really realistic and not as bizarre as the one I donned for Blue, who has an unnatural hair style anyway. Need to get Tom to tell me how the hell I'm supposed to get my ticket and finalize what I will be wearing and when. The Loveless cosplayers still haven't set a time, although they say they'll meet Sunday. This is going to be a repeat of the WR fiasco, isn't it? Why can't I ever run into the hardcore cosplayers? Even if I'm not in their category, it's still cool to be around them. You get association cred. For now the cosplay plan is:
-Friday: Yayoi--Loveless
-Saturday: Cagalli (GSeed civilian uniform)--GSeed/Destiny
-Sunday: Natsuo (sailor uniform)--Loveless

I need to start watching the FMA DVDs I buy. Now that I know that the FMA game has gone down in price, at least at Best Buy, I can buy that too.
