I’m sure by now everyone’s sick of the Eva movie posts but now that the DVD is finally out (no I didn’t bother watching the cam rip lol) I decided to do a comparison to the retro Eva DVDs that JP had. (I never had Eva DVDs because my Eva episodes were in VivTV and MPEG
10 points if you know what VivTV is. ) I had no idea what this movie consisted of but it’s literally Evangelion episodes 1-6 smushed into 1 hour and 37 minutes that have been completely reanimated with super CG angels! Since just rewatching them in movie form would be boring I figured the most fun thing to do is compare! And boy did the retro waves of 90s animation hit me hard. Massive image flood after the jump!

Owen asked me on MAL if I was still working on the RenAi Blogger Project. Well truth be told I am but certain things have distracted me. I’ve been working on an excel spreadsheet with routes, events, paths and bad ends. I’ve pretty much done all but 1 character which I hope to finish tonight. While browsing my blogroll today I ran upon this post by zepy in regards to CatSystem2 which was another Visual Novel engine used by people who made Trappyness.
I downloaded and played around a bit, and while I have to admit, based on the tutorial, you could do a lot of cool shit with this thing…but since my Japanese reading knowledge is god awful (especially when it comes to technical things) I found myself even more lost than with Ren’Py. I mean programming is hard enough for me but programming and Japanese kanji? I think I’ll pass. Most likely Ren’Py will be what I ultimately use to do my game in. Also I realized after I did most of my routes that the game could almost be like an otome game except from a guy’s POV. What have I created!

So if you’re in the New York, NJ area, you might wanna stop by Mitsuwa between April 25th and Cinco de Mayo to load up on boxes of glorious pocky - now up to 30% off!
Last time they had a strawberry fair I bought Strawberry Pocky for really cheap, like 4x cheaper than what you’d get at an anime con dealer’s room. Perhaps I will stop by this Sunday, and stock up on some boxes myself.

This
week seems to focus on another BL pairing so now I have to remember even more names! The episode begins by showing a ronery guy without his buttsecks partner thinking about the hawt night he had before. For some reason in the flashback one of the dudes must be into S&M cause he’s got the whole blindfold thing going on. Anyway back to the present time after the OP suddenly another man appears after launching a penis pump shaped rocket by this guy’s feet. Continue Reading »

I actually love Soul Eater to bits & pieces that I don’t mind watching it twice but eh I’m out of time this week because of a certain movie so I just skipped to the parts I figured would be different. Despite what you may think, the part with Liz & Patty (with their pants down in the manga) actually wasn’t any less censored in the late night version. The Late Show version this week just featured a half time break showing that showed the answer to the questions during the sponsor window after the OP. The question was like do these things have symmetry (since Kid is like OCD lol). Basically if you watched Monday’s episode you’d already know the answer. The other noteable thing is the different preview for the Sid arc next week.
Yes I am now on ch. 30 of the manga so I have every right to talk about it! One of these days I’ll do a massive Soul x Maka tribute post. Just you wait!
Also I did some fanart.

While
watching this I said “I have no idea why I keep watching this show, Naoki is such a weiner head” and then JP reminded me that “Naoki acts like a dick for 20 minutes and then Kotoko pwns him in the last 3.”
And just as KEIKAKU this pattern followed well into this episode as well! Also as a side note, I have no idea why I’m discovering ItaKiss episodes on Thursdays, but just to be safe I’ll still leave it as a “Friday” show until I can confirm that I can get a hold of it on Thursday instead.

…sucked but at least Naruto’s hair looks great because he uses Herbal Essenses!
So finally the movie that was hyped last year is out and I guess it’s too late for me to fangirl about it, as all I have left for Naruto is incredibly contempt and awful sarcasm. Oh well that should make this blog entry somewhat amusing to read. Continue Reading »
