tempestuously: ([light] sit back and watch it burn)
I'm not saying my grammar is the best thing in the world, but when I have to read an entire letter that confuses periods for commas, I want to cry. It's like I keep charging forth into a solid brick wall over and over again. I'm sorry, Mr. Complainer, who thinks I'm doing the action my writing is merely telling people about, but I cannot respond to your letter, seeing as I cannot read it.

If I wanted to sound like a moron. I too would write my sentences like this. So nobody with even the least comprehension of the English language would dare try to read it. Now tell me good sir. Is this not the most obnoxious style in existence?

I need to stop reading Eyeshield before work. It tends to make me late.

When I was watching Death Note last night and L was talking about Light being his first friend, I couldn't remember the manga ever including a scene like that. L seemed sincere, and Light seemed zonked by the whole thing. It was strange because right after he was all "I'm going to kill L. I'm going to kill L~." I wonder what the point of the friendship scene was. Also, the new subbers are confusing me by referring to Rem as "he."

I want to beat Xenosaga just because I want to see the end of the series. But I don't feel like playing the game, and I feel bad about just watching scenes. I'm also not sure I want to blow my money/time on Sims 2 Pets or a DS and Phoenix Wright. I really have no time for either. Curse you college students and your endless free time.
tempestuously: ([not!kamui] yay for bondage)
Welp, now I have three more icons in my inventory and each more wrong than the first. I feel so accomplished.

People going on about FFXII really make me want to play, but if I play then I'll have to ditch everything else. Why can't someone else plan my day? I'd do so much better with it then. I might go back to Okami at various times this weekend, provided I hook up the Playstation again first.

I will now leave you with this image. I'm not sure what's going on, but I can guarantee it's not consensual.

tempestuously: ([loveless] our secret)
So I hear tale that it's FMA day again. Ironic since it coincides with the raw release of d.Grayman. I care little for raws. I barely have time to watch subs. Unless it's Tenimyu or Tenimyu related, I don't do anything that's not translated. Call me a lazy fan if you will but that's that. Besides I'm more jonesing for Death Note. Rawr. You are still sexy, Light.

I want to play more Okami, but I fear I'm nearing the end and I don't know if I want to use a guide and complete all the sidequests before I deal with Kamui or not. My brother and I had a field day when we learned the final world was Kamui. I think he said something along the lines of "If there was an entire world of Kamui, I'd kill myself." I said it depended on the version. I could go with a world of vamp!Kamui. I'll make my decision to play after work tonight, depending on what's going down on the RP-side.

I also think I've reached the point where I say "Fuck you" to slow-ass TokyoPop and dl all of the translated Loveless volumes available. I have the Japanese versions so I don't feel anywhere near as bad about it. I want to learn about Soubi and Ritsu too. And Seimei. Seimei is like that big plump cherry on your sundae. If it was filled with flesh-eating bacteria. I love Seimei.
tempestuously: ([tenimyu] eternal rivals)
I really hate taking off work when I'm actually sick because then I truly don't want to do anything but lay in bed like a slug. I guess this means I'll have time to finish my manga that's been building up.

Inui in the Tenipuri dub is still not doing it for me. He's ok when he's monologuing in his head but once he's doing his creepy Inui smile and still has the monotone voice, it doesn't work out. We already know my everlasting hatred for Fuji. No further complaints.

To get my Internet service at my new place, I have to wait almost three weeks! I could do one week. I have enough manga and Okami to get me through that. But I will literally climb walls if I had to be without my Net for three weeks. I have no idea what to do now. Why the fuck couldn't they have told me that when I was on the phone with them for an hour? Deceiving bitches.

Shit, I just realized I'm going to have no money for FFXII. I'm going to have to get it for Christmas or something. Dammit. Maybe that's for the best. I've been spending way too much money on games anyway. I'll just have to be one of the less cool kids and not know all of the spiffy stuff about the game when it first comes out. That and avoid spoilers like a mofo. That will be borderline impossible, considering the circles I run in. But I really shouldn't let myself buy another game until I beat either Xenosaga II or Xenosaga III or even FMA 2. I can't believe I have three games that I haven't beaten, two that I haven't even touched since buying them. I don't think I know where Xenosaga III is anymore.

What do you know, Internet ranting is making me feel better.
tempestuously: ([loveless] you know you want it)
Now that work's done, I'm going to do what I usually do with my day and play Okami. I got my two hours of exercise walking trails, malls and streets. I'm good.

Someone on an Okami message board asked why Amaterasu pees like a male dog, even though she's a goddess. Someone else came up with the theory that the wolf body Amaterasu is possessing, Shiranui, was a male so anything Amaterasu did with it would be male-oriented. When I explained this to Rachel, she took it to mean I was playing Angel Sanctuary with wolves. XD


Forgot to put in my Trinity Blood comments. Something actually happened last but they killed the pretty vampire so I was sad. The twist was cool though. I hate Ester. I want her to die die die. She ruined my streak of not despising the main character. I hated her from the first moment I saw her.
tempestuously: (Default)
I think I finally reached the point in my playing where I won't be able to concentrate on much else until Okami is finished. I can't pull myself away from it. I'm so addicted. I have to literally force myself to go to work tomorrow. Else they'll find out I didn't do what I was supposed to, and I'll get in mega-trouble. That and I don't want the added hassle of researching when I'm supposed to be doing other stuff Monday. I'm not proud of this mentality. There are other things I'd like to do. I just can't convince myself they're more worthy of me time than Okami.

I'm actually going to mention a spoiler about a big boss here instead of being vague like usual )
tempestuously: ([kh] when you need a friend)
I've just been in a meh mood since about Wednesday and now I'm sick. I just don't know anymore. Maybe marathoning the last two eps of Host Club will perk me up.

I'm thinking about buying Supernatural since I really want to see it and know that I will never watch it on my computer since every single marathon I've attempted has crashed and burned within a few episodes lately. I have no idea how Princess Tutu pulled it off. I guess it just rocked that hard.

That issue I've been discussing lately about me and Sis. It's settled now. Things should be...interesting to say the least.

I am so not up to the family reunion I'm supposed to attend tonight.

In Okami news, we can now set people on fire. This makes playing around my brother very annoying because his solution to everything is setting things on fire. He even made us burn the poor sake girl. We are a terrible goddess. I also think the wolf can gain the ability to crap on things in addition to pissing on enemies. I'm almost willing to earn the 2,000,000 necesarry to see this. Our weapons need to be cheaper dammit. And there's nothing better than fighting a boss by getting him drunk off his ass and then setting him on fire. God, I love this game. More people need to be playing it. It may not have bishies and such as lusted after in most Square and fighting games but it's just amazing to watch. Now when we sleep, flowers spring up around us. We're so pretty.
tempestuously: ([cain] belladonna)
I so fail at managing my time. Okami won out tonight. I can tell you it's either going to be a one or the other deal since I can't do both. I die in boss battles. You don't know how depressing it is to watch a great goddess perish. Work doesn't allow for the split Net/game time either. I'm just going to have to alternate days until I defeat the beast, the beast being ultimately Orochi but also the whole of the game itself. Curses. I hate thread dropping. I hate more when the later stuff, which I'm obviously awake for, looks sooo good. And what do I end my night on? A giant spider that eats dogs and that I have absolutely NO idea how to defeat. Vine is not working!

Okami

Okami is everything I hoped for. My only complaint is the way they don't let the character actually speak any language but just sort of mumber. Aside from that, everything is gorgeous. The wolf play is awesome, the storyline is intriguing, the calligraphy is fun (although I suck) and the whole design of the game is just very appealing. I'm also liking the fun puzzles and the way the wolf falls asleep half the time people are talking to him. He rocks.

Might do an actual game blog later on. We'll see.
tempestuously: (art by fluff: what? you don't love me?)
Knitten: 14 more rows to go before the body is finished. I can only do so many rows a day because my fingers get sore easily. Probably from typing/writing notes all day.

Chrono Crusade: 23 more episodes to go. Still haven't reached the point I was at when I originally left the subs. Nothing new to go on about as of yet. Chrono's still cute, Remington is still smexy, Rosette is still psychotic and Joshua is still creepy.

Xenosaga II: Haven't played since beating Margulis and claiming the Awakening III I missed on previous play. Xenosaga III still waits for me at Electronics Boutique...I hope.

XXXholic 2: Still wants to be read. It whines at me now and then. I ignore it until I'm in the mood. It's begun teasing me with Doumeki lately. It is a devious little minx. That reminds me of when Dad called House a "evil little minx" the other night. What a creepy image.

In other news, Dad entertained Bro and I with a delightful tale about how he watched a fake testicle transplant on Nip Tuck. I'd like it known that I never want to hear my father talk so exuberantly about balls ever again.

I'm not going to venture into the actual comms for an answer to this one unless I absolutely helpful. So I'm hoping some of the more obsessive members of my F-List could help out with this question. Ever since every fanfic and its mother decided that Axel must use his catch phrase at least once no matter how small the fic to be complete, I've wondered when exactly does he first say it. I don't remember him ever bringing it up to Roxas. Unless he says it in their fight. The first time I recall was when he ran into Kairi. But I know it had to have been earlier than that because I was going on about it fairly early on. I just can't visualize when it first comes out. It's driving me crazy, as do all things that I forget.

Because of that evil YouTube, the next things on my to-do list include rewatching ALL the Satoshi/Krad parts in DNAngel because I think I missed some while I was too busy bitching about the boring twins and the random Mary Sue that showed up. I also like that scene where Daisuke gets his own red wings, and I think I missed that too on initial watch. I'm still contemplating buying that DVD set. I need the price to just go down a bit more. Again, it's VA love mostly. Greg Ayres.

I also want to replay Kingdom Hearts I since I think I wasn't really paying attention to a good deal from the storyline aside from "Riku's angsty. And he's hot. What was he saying again? Damn it, Sora, do you ever stop smiling? Kairi, don't fuckin' touch me. I can fly I can fly I can fly!" So I think I missed out in that venture as well. The only time I think I ever truly paid attention to a damn thing that was going on was when Sora gave Kairi back her heart and the bit at the end because I was pissed that they were separating the boys. Oh was I mad? I was like "This is the stupidest, most depressing ending ever!...Let's watch Deep Dive." But I really suck at the first game since button-mashing not my forte. ;_; Oh well, it will either be that or Xenogears since Curse of the Crimson Elixir remains untouched to this day ever since my brother played it for 10 straight hours. Why do I buy games I don't play? It's as bad as when I buy manga I don't read. Or in KKM's case, anime I don't watch.
tempestuously: (art by fluff: pwnage)
Bought Narultimate or whatever for PS2. Since I suck ass at fighting games but I still want the extra characters, I'm making the Bro play Sasuke's arc so he can pick me up some Haku and Orochimaru. Bro really hates Haku but also refuses to practice so he might have a chance of kicking Haku's ass. Once I have all the characters, I might actually learn how to fight so I can do my death matches of sex.

I'm sad this is the first game since that means I can only get a handful of characters, and I can't even activate the curse seal or kyuubi. ;_; Oh well in a few more months, Narultimate 2 should be available.
tempestuously: (art by fluff: uchiha sasuke you suck)
Ugh, have to go over to the aunt's for social interaction. Bleh.

I want Xenogears anime. I've been searching for cutscenes on YouTube all day. There aren't any true cutscenes, just AMVs. I'd play the game again if it wasn't so damn hard at times. And long. Very long.

But nooo, we get Xenosaga anime because it was popular at the time. Square's greatest masterpiece ever and hardly any of the FF-fed fans have even heard of it before Xenosaga. Some still don't even know what it is. So, while FF7 whores itself to movies, spinoffs and potential revamped re-releases of the original game, its much superior half-brother game fades into obscurity. Ok, I admit it could be terribly linear and that second disk made you want to bash your head into the wall, but it's still the best storyline Square has ever brought to life. Every character had a story. Had dimension and depth. They weren't just there for a few memorable lines and then off again. And while Krelian was very much in the nutsy go-coocoo stage of his existence, he's still one of the few Square "villains" who had a reason for his madness. Ok, Sephy, you did too. Kinda. In a roundabout "it's all about me" way. But I really don't like you. I guess Miang did too, but hers would be much more complicated. And let us not forget the religion. I'm sure that got under people's skin. But if you can take Evangelion, Xenogears is not much worse. When you get right down to it, it's just a love story after all. I think if any game deserves to be redone right, it should be Xenogears. Spruce up that second disk and give us some gametime. But alas, chances of that are nonexistant. If it could, the fan response would probably be tremendous. There's just so much to work with.

Maybe I can dig out my old save file and at least play with Bart and his whip. Or Little Billy AKA Yes Junior, plz to be stealing my mad skillz. In Junior's defense, at least his gun doesn't require special bullets.
