Ah, I very much enjoyed seeing the London arc animated (though there are some scenes I like better in the manga), though I suspect my enjoyment was in part because I have been to Europe recently (not England, however, but Russia). And feel like my timing was pretty much perfect, even though I didn't even consciously think about it when I watched. Although it's Wimbledon, not an Olympic event, that Conan and gang go to.

( Loose comments that will spoil but hopefully not too much... )

Well, I didn't take notes so I couldn't put in everything about this arc. Besides, I think it's best if DC fans watch/read the London arc themselves (manga chapters 743 to 752), if for some reason they still haven't gotten around to it. Personally, I think it's worth it just for a certain canon pairing.

( OVA 11 (side story to the London arc) summary, so expect some spoilers. )

Anyway, while I'm up-to-date with the manga, I am still a long way off in catching up with DC anime. I don't think I've watched even 100 episodes (and I usually only picked those cases I liked in the manga) in the four years I've seen the anime on and off (apparently I've started around some time after I watched those two live action specials since I liked them enough, though I'm kinda glad they replaced the two main leads in later specials and drama series) and DC has over 660 episodes last I checked...

Oh, and randomly enough, the ending theme for this set of episodes and the OVA, 'Tsukiyo no Itazura no Mahou' (Mischievous Magic on the Moonlit Night), makes me see a crack pairing (unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, not a pairing from the DC fandom) that I cannot unsee.

Oh wow, this site is so much fun. :)

Akinator

I found this while random site surfing. The person who recommended it also helpfully let me know that I can save the questions asked by clicking on "details", so I've been saving most of them. :)

Akinator can guess some live-action characters, and apparently real people, too. But I haven't really tried (well, two times on a toku character (you should know who, really, even though I've been neglecting his series), but I stumped Aki both times).

So since I thought maybe Aki liked anime/manga stuff better, I've been trying for six Gintama characters and three other anime/manga characters. I did perfectly for four characters (I know them well or what ^___^), not too perfectly for two characters (I need brushing up on some details of their characters), less than perfectly for one character (well, I'm not so surprised if it's this character), and kind of terrible for two characters (Aki confused me...or I confused Aki ^^;;).

( Details and screenshots of my results. :) Will spoil the questions asked for these characters so perhaps you might not want to look too closely at the questions. )

In any case, hope you have fun if you play with Akinator. ^___^

( Real life stuff )

( More like note to self... )

(Tags are deceptive, by the way, because other than Otomen, they are mostly one-line references.)

Ah, stealing from f-list is what I do. :) Probably listing series mostly unheard of, but oh well.

( My list. Mostly obscure stuff (and largely anime), except Goseiger, OOO, and W (and maybe slight spoilers for them) )

Umm. I've listed almost everything I've seen with Marina Inoue doing voice work in. Would include TTGL, but I don't think it really fits any category here. Besides, I've finished everything (well, specials and movies don't count) on the list (except the 'not get into' one and the two on-going ones--which I'm current as far as subs go).


Happy New Year to everyone reading this. :)

Dear Gmail,

( In so many words: your prank doesn't fool me this time. )

ETA: But I'm taken in by an April Fools post I just read. I think they did some variation of the same thing the year before too, but I'm not sure.


(Wow, haven't posted in ages and the first thing I thought to post about is Gmail? Traveling quite often in the past few months, so didn't really have a chance to write (nor be much online--slowly reading back posts) and now pretty much forget what I was going to say (did one post on an obscure manga elsewhere, but that's about it). Glad that I'm still kept by all, though. Thanks!)

So long time no see. I don't really have much energy these days, so fandom stuff and life in general kind of come to a stand still.

( I'll just throw my sort of fandom update under a cut, because this is too mixed anyway: Conan, me not watching anything new, Moebius )

( Takeru Sato's favorite anime, the Mebi episode which might or might not be the one I mentioned earlier, Kindaichi (and more DC) )

So there's a pattern of me going off on series only a few people (if I'm that lucky) may recognize. If anyone is curious, however, any search engine should turn them all up easily. (Tags are not very accurate either, but I'm too tired to bother with full titles/names.)

While this is not strictly a friend-only journal, I lock up quite a few things. Just so you know. So, yeah, it might seem I never update, particularly when I don't have/am too lazy, too uninspired to do fandom-type posts.


It makes sense putting this down, so maybe potential visitors looking at my journal will know what to expect.

( Exactly as the subject says )

More as I thought of something...

This is nothing more than my pretending that the following was written some time before April 8, 2006. I don't claim to be original with these types of questions either.

( Results of my reading up too much on how to study. I'm sure there are no real spoilers here. )

( So why I'm posting this instead of reviews? )

( Back, internet problem )

( On Ultraman Cosmos. No specific comments on the episodes themselves. )

And now, I'm going to write a bit more on Ultraman Tiga. I think I probably won't stop talking about Tiga at any time soon, what with the new movie coming out this fall and all.

( A question or two on the Tiga movie. Some spoilers )
