I was watching CDTV this evening and I spotted an interesting commercial that I uploaded for you guys to see:

Pretty creative if you ask me, especially that “Touka Koukan” pun thing (if you haven’t watched Full Metal Alchemist I guess it’s not as funny xD). It was pretty surprising as I pretty much never see anime related commercials unless I’m watching an anime related program. Also, Sen no Kaze ni Natte is still in the top 50…after 2 years. Wtf

Also known as the Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruka. Actually this entire episode was there for the sole purpose of trying to remind us why we should care about this OVA. But for some reason, the animation and character designs made everyone look REALLY UGLY. Especially Takayuki. The more I saw him the more he reminded me of some beefed up guy yelling “YEA FUCKING TOUCHDOWN!” at some rowdy American football game. I really try to get into this OVA but I just can’t get myself to care about something I watched over 5 years ago Spare yourself and watch something more interesting.
