My fucking gay Vista sound driver went to shit hell and then decided to uninstall itself. Now my computer has no sound.
No sound = I can’t watch anime. I can’t watch anime = I can’t blog.

Hiatus until I get all this shit fixed - and the fact that my Toshiba recovery CD refuses to work isn’t helping things. I hate you Vista. I hate you RealTek and I hate you Toshiba for installing a shitty half assed Taiwanese sound driver into my laptop.

Edit: Somehow while calling Toshiba support the umpteenth driver I installed fixed itself. Back to your regularly scheduled program.

Manga Review: Modotte! Mamotte Lollipop Vol. 3

Published by Hinano under Mamotte! Lollipop, Manga

So if you missed the mushy moments between Zero and Nina, well I recommend you pick up the next to Modotte Mamotte Lollipop books because that’s pretty much all it is. It’s gotten to the point where they add some sort of storyline in order to ultimately conclude with Nino and Zero hugging and/or kissing. But you know what, a cheesy romantic shoujo manga is fine too.

The only annoying this in this volume were the 2 new characters who were created for the purpose of what I mentioned above, but they look like they were rejects out of some robot anime - actually at one point I thought the girl was an android..but turns out she just likes to cosplay as one and unlike her brother, can use magic.
