Why I Watch What I Watch, 2006

I only got Bittorrent to work for me in June, so I can’t really evaluate anime that aired before the start of fall season, so shows such as Ouran High School Host Club, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, and Zero no Tsukaima aren’t noted below.

…Yes, this post is sort of an excuse for me to try out my new tablet. ^^;;

Code Geass - Lelouch of the Rebellion
1. Lelouch
2. Nunnally
3. C.C.
Repeat for every episode.
I haven’t felt this much anticipation for the next week’s episode of an anime since Digimon over six years ago, mainly because of its continuous plot. Most of the characters’ lives are trainwrecks, and for those whose are not, are driven into wrecks by the indirect actions of the former. It’s almost as if CLAMP went into the characters’ profile development, too, except not, and if CLAMP actually worked on the show beyond character designs, the mecha battles wouldn’t be half as cool.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, everyone! This is an American holiday that I’ve assimilated to only the commercial aspect thereof and I can certainly see the joy in all of the buying and selling. ^o^

Anyways, the good news is that my father has agreed to purchase a 6X8 version of Wacom Graphire4 tablet for me instead of the 4X5, which I found to look pathetic in its box. The bad news is that Amazon.com is currently sold out of them.

Read on for a pathetic webcomic.

Rozen Maiden ouvertüre Ending Sequence Panorama

Here’s the panorama used in the ending sequence, to be updated to widescreen in the next month. (Click for a bigger, un-sideways version)

I watched the first part of Rozen Maiden ouvertüre today and I found it to be very engaging, even though I’ve only seen the first few episodes of the first season of Rozen Maiden. Suigintou is indeed a tragic heroine figure of sorts and I can sympathize with her sufferings and desire to meet Father.

My only gripe about the show is its format in the recent broadcast, which was fullscreen instead of widescreen, so a chunk of the animation was cut off from the left and right sides. I’ll blog ouvertüre after it airs on the widescreen channel BS-i on January 11th.

Christmas List

The season of happy holidays is upon us, and like any other good assimilated American, I must join in on the Christmas gift-grabbing frenzy. Everything else doesn’t matter. There isn’t a single holiday decoration up in my house. No tree, no light, no candlestick. Enough money is being spent on presents for Christmas already, which my parents has adopted as best as they can as “kids demand presents from adults, but no lucky money for you on Chinese New Year’s Day”.

All I want is a Wacom (Graphire4 4X5) tablet, conveniently on sale at Best Buy for $69.99, marked down from retail value of $99.95. It’s cheaper than what I can get from Amazon.com and the sale lasts through this Saturday nationwide. I’ll be receiving it as a present from my dad on Saturday, when we pick it at from the store, hopefully without being crushed in the aisles or at the checkout counter.
