Hello I’m writing here from beyond the grave. Ok no really I actually ended up getting kind of busy with school even though I said I wouldn’t. Then everytime I did get a chance to write I got all caught up thinking about what I would write about and then not writing at all. I thought I should write about new shows and then I thought I should write about shows that I just finished watching but the thing is I’m pretty behind and I haven’t finished watching all the shows I wish I had finished. So then I’m just going to write about EVERYTHING I’ve watched and nothing I haven’t. Er near the end it gets really short…
Ouran Host Club 26

Ouran ends! I liked the ending a lot, I knew it wouldn’t end with Haruhi and Tamaki getting all lovey and I’m happy it didn’t. I really don’t know why people would want it to end that way, it’s not that type of show. But at the same time I also like that in the last couple of episodes they showed that Haruhi did actually have feelings for Tamaki. All around it was nice, I’d like to see more but the ending seemed very much like a complete ending to me.

WOW. Just wow. I knew Jin would betray Jo, what with all the foreshadowing and the mask in the opening but I really didn’t think it would be in this way. When he stabbed Jo and went with Drake I was really suprised. I thought his betrayal wouldn’t be so serious, like that he’d so it in such a way that later on he would see the error of his ways and come back to the good side and then we’d all forgive him. After what he’s done now there’s no way he’ll be forgiven. I think he’ll probably die in the end. Also I think he was always crazy, he didn’t just go crazy, he purposely mislead everyone in to thinking he was nice when he never was.
D. Gray Man 1

This was one of the shows I was looking forward to this season and I liked it a lot. I love Allen, he’s one of the few Shounen Jump main characters I really, truly like. His voice was cute. The opening and ending were both really good.
Death Note 1

I have mixed feelings about Death Note. I like it but at the same time I don’t. I hate Light but I like his voice. The opening is great and the animation is nice.
Code Geass 1

I’ve only watched this raw so I can’t say much about it. I was kind of worried that after being so excited about it while knowing next to nothing about it I would hate it, actually I was so worried about it that I couldn’t really enjoy the first part of the episode but by the end I wasn’t worried any more! I think I’ll love it!

I’m so lazy, I got tons of manga recently and I’d like to write about some of that but I can’t bring myself to do it yet. Oh well…
Innocent Venus 4
I was looking foward to this episode a lot and really it wasn’t as awesome as I thought it would be. But then again I don’t know what I really expected from it. Jo coming to get Jin was really cool, it also showed that even though they’re always winning and are really great at everything they can still be outsmarted. I like Toraji too, I was glad we learned about him but I hope they show more about him in future episodes like his motives for leaving phantom and such. I guess what I was disapointed with was the fight between phantom and Jin and Jo, it was OK but nothing great. I decided that I don’t like that big muscle guy or the knife guy in phantom, I kind of want them both to die I like Steve and tarot guy (Chinran?) though. Also this episode pretty much showed that Gora will never die, he annoys a lot of people but I like him and his voice so I’m glad he didn’t die… especially after what happened on Blood+ this week :’( The next episode looks pretty cute.

I’m so lazy, I could post here more then once a week but I don’t. Why? Just because I’m lazy.
Before I start I have to advertise: I’m selling some of my manga here. Most of it is sold but there’s still some left and I’m also thinking of adding some more. So if you’re interested in buying some cheap random manga check it out, thanks

No I haven’t abandoned this… sorry
I’ve been pretty busy lately but not too busy to watch some of the new summer shows. So I have some short thoughts on some new shows.
Bokura Ga Ita

This was one of the shows I was really looking forward to this season because it’s made by Artland and directed by Akitaroh Daichi.
The feeling of this kind of reminds me of Mushishi, it could be all in my head but it’s a nice relaxing show to watch just like Mushishi was. It feels nice and it looks nice. I enjoyed watching the first episode a lot. The only problem I could have with it is that I don’t care much for stories where the main female is stupid and the main male is potentially abusive but so far I hate the characters a lot less then I thought I would.
