#15 - Ohohoho

I've watched two-and-a-half episodes of Personal Taste, and -

I LOVE IT.

Understatement.

I REALLY, REALLY LOVE IT.

Best drama I've seen for ages, full stop. Not that I've actually watched many dramas....but then again. And I'm only on the second episode....but then again. =D

I'm not going to spoil the details here, but I tell you its worth watching so it's definitely worth watching, it is. I love the lead male (*wink wink* from K-Drama Boys over flowers although I didn't like him then but I like him NOW!!) and I super-love the lead female. I love the lead female's friend, love the lead male's friend, love almost everything about the crazy insane storyline that somehow makes sense.

Pure love here.

Anyway, I'm having a hard time downloading this series because megaupload is totally shot. Yeah Giuleta not all of us have a nice pretty megaupload ACCOUNT where you can download things SUPER FAST. =(

That's why I'm currently at ep 2-and-a-half....because I caved in and watched episode three halfway online. =D

--------------------------------

Alex is crazy.

Why is Alex crazy?

She is crazy because she calls me at eleven forty five at night to tell me about her love for Toradora! and Akagami and ZHD.

But then again, she gave me the link to a website with faster uploads for Akagami and ZHD so whatever Alex, I still love you. =D

---------------------------------

OMG AERANDRIA IS DOWN. =(

---------------------------------

Well, anyway. Currently downloading Hayao Miyazaki's movies (the Studio Ghibli ones) and looking forward to them, especially Kiki's Delivery Service and Spirited Away. They're like 94% and 97% on Rottentomatoes, and that's saying a whole darn lot about the quality of the movie. It's actually HARD to believe that an animated film in Japanese has those awesome superstar ratings on RT.

Which translates to: I want to watch them now.

Hurry up O great Transmission,
Bittorent client on
Alexis' mac
Give her Hayao Miyazaki movies
and Big Bang Theory faster.
-The Transmission Haiku

--------------------------------

Actually I haven't been watching a lot of things lately. Lately I've just been downloading a whole tonload of stuff to watch later. When is later? I don't know. =( This makes me Saaa~aaaad! I want to....NOT be a student! *gaspshockhorror?*

--------------------------------

To watch or not to watch. Now that is the question.

#14 - Here We Are.

announcement to shoujo lovers.

=)

Kaichou wa Maid-sama is out in ANIME style!!

And I'm pretty impressed.

Voice actors not annoying: check.
Designs generally like the manga: check, but I wish they'd follow the manga style exactly.
Good subs: check.
Fast updates: check.
Animation: well, okay, check. Not too bad. Comparing anything to the colors of Kimi Ni Todoke, though, bring the scores down a little.
Storyline: Although it sounds stupid summarized, super check for adorable and lovable characters.

So, in conclusion?

Watch.

=)

As for Kimi Ni Todoke....

it's getting quite annoying. I find myself skipping parts which are supposed to be 'touching' because the voice actors are starting to annoy me. Besides that, they make the scenes wayyy too long, dragging a simple 'wow he's a really nice person' into a full fifteen seconds of staring and staring and staring at each other while blushing.

Borrr-ring. But the colors? Vivid and beautiful. Still love the animation.

------------

Haven't been watching anime lately, actually. Been watching K-Drama.

1. Ob-Gyn doctors:
is a medical K-drama which brings me to tears nearly every-every-every episode. I mean, they're dealing with children and babies so it's more touching than usual. =) The lead characters are likeable. The lead GUYS are likeable - more than the girls. I was hoping for character development from the lead female, but so far not too much has happened. Watch this one for the rather (rather because sometimes they mess up between like v-fib and tachycardia and other things) -rather accurate medical terms, and not for the drama. It's not overdone per se, but rather done in a way which makes it ignorable. Sometimes it's funny, as well. I'm on episode 12. Four more to go till the end! (Oh, and hopes of a sequel are high. Please please please!)

2. Personal Taste:
Downloaded. Scanned through. Very, very interested. A straight guy pretending to be gay? Yes, please. Can't wait to properly watch this one.

3. Loving You 10,000 times. (Or is it 100,000 times? 1,000 times?? Gah.)
Storyline seems nice. Hopefully going to watch it soon!

Yeahhhh.

-------

FYI - the Liar Game J-Drama isn't the best thing. But it's a good effort. I just prefer the manga. Haven't watched the anime...I think I should try it.

Downloading Code Blue 1 and 2.

Downloading Yamato Nadeshiko J-Drama...

Downloading Aoi Bungaku.

-----------

STILL depressed over the ending of cross game. Prolonging it as much as possible. I still have four episodes to watch till the end. =D

----------

I love you, Adachi!

---------

FMA: good guys comeback. And ANOTHER cliffhanger.

---------

Skip Beat LOVE. Chapter 155 is heading in some funny direction...

But I'm not sure I like Kyoko all that much now. Too much bubble-headedness: even more than usual. I liked the old Kyoko! Kyoko-the-actress. No more Kyoko-the-oblivious!

Glad that Shotaro and Vie Ghoul is out of the picture, for now. They are excessively annoying characters which don't develop the main characters in ANY way.

--------

Eh....giving Alexandra KWMS and some manga.

=D

Also making my way through Nodame finale. I'm at the last episode ALREADY!!

I feel that the 'finale' anime moves too fast. The scene cuts aren't that nicely arranged so the story seems abrupt. In the manga the transitions are still relatively okay, but in the anime somehow it seems like the directors are rushing. Oh, and I hate the ending (only witnessed the manga ending, for now) have I mentioned that already? Well I need to mention it again.

Still, love the voice actors. Perfectly fitted.

Oh, and Love Chiaki.....of course.

-------

HAPI MARI CHAPTERS 11 & 12 are AWESOME.

Oh the sexiness of Hokuto.

And Dokuhime's out on Aerandria, too.

Waiting on Shirayuki and ZHD...impatiently.
