Memoirs of the Angst-Bitch

Well, I certainly wasn't expecting to be without the Internet for all of Labor Day weekend. There went my shot at applying this round. Instead, I get to marathon the entire Gungrave series, Steamboy, Finding Neverland, The Pianist, Office Space and K-PAX. I also managed to miss the final episode of Shaman King since the place I was helping Tom house-sit had issues with Fox. I also forgot that they switched up the time for the episode due to some marathon so my attempts to have it required went awry.

Watched W.I.T.C.H. out of extreme boredness. It reminded me of a younger, more low-budge Sailormoon. Fake anime in many ways. I was amused that the girls had wings that they actually used to fly. What a novel idea. I also think Satoshi's VA voices the rebel from the dark realm, Caleb.

Read the 9th volume of DNAngel, where Satoshi and Daisuke put on their play as Freedert and Dark. Satoshi is so sexy as Dark. We also get the great line by Satoshi when Daisuke asks why Satoshi goes to his school since he's already graduated college. Satoshi's "To be closer to you" always makes me smile.

I don't think I'll be doing much tonight as I'm in a down mood from the weekend. Probably too much sleep and lack of doing stuff. Not that I regret it. I always enjoy my time with Tom.

Manga to buy:
Banana Fish 9
Prince of Tennis 8 & 9
Yami no Matsuei: 7
Yugioh: Duelist 7
Shaman King 7

I might get my chance to catch Grand Prix after all. I would figure that they would combine the premiere of Grand Prix with the premiere of GX, but guess not. The CN premieres don't start up for another few weeks and I have still yet to catch the Fall Line-up preview to check out the second clip of Naruto or the like. Shaman King should be coming to its end soon enough. Maybe they'll replay it from the start so I can catch the crappy dub. I like it. Must have the same brainwashing effect on me as Yugioh does. Yoh's VA is one of my favorites, but I also love Lyserg.

Onto more 4Kids ramblings, I turned on CN last night to catch the last chunk of Clash in the Collesium, which pisses me off for several reaons: 1, it means they showed the final eps of the Noa Arc a long time ago and I missed them, 2, it means I missed Jou's "death" again, 3, it means I missed the ultimate battle royale in the duel tower, and 4, it means I missed ALL of the YamiKai duel to the death. I might actually buy Clash in the Collesium, even if it's only available in dubbed format. The subs have stopped coming out all together, I believe. I just love "Yugi, you will not defeat me in my own tournament!" Yami likes to lecture. Poor Kaiba baby.

Also hearing word of a live-action Tenipuri. Since I dig live-action Tenipuri far more than its animated predecessor, I'm all for that. If it's as good as Pretty Guardian Sailormoon, it will be golden. Plus, it will have tennis! I'm hoping for a really hot Tezuka and Ryoma. Oh a hot Yuuta too. Still on the fence about the fruity Atobe.

I think the SakuSaso fight is almost over. About time. Maybe they can move onto something that will make me care about the manga or the series anymore. Right now, I'm just holding onto my SasuNaru for sanity. Though, I probably should be picking up the latest filler. It has Shino.

I need to do AMV today and catch up on events at a certain summer locale. I also need to make new icons soon.

( That icon meme that's been going around. The answers, they burn! )
