CONFESSION.

I HAVE BEEN READING NARUTO.

AND I LIKE LOVE IT.



I'm actually really upset I didn't get into it sooner. The series may still be going on and I may still be able to get into fandom while it's active (which is a million times better than joining a fandom once the series is already over), but my favorite character died two years ago. TWO YEARS AGO.

I have the first 45 manga in English, and I'll read the other 40 or so recent chapters in Shonen Jumps and scanlations when I get there, then just be up-to-date every new chapter. I've heard that it's gone kind of downhill, too, so I already missed the so-called Golden Age of it, I guess, even if it is still ongoing.

Yea. More later.

I haven't been watching the anime, though I probably will eventually. Evidently the most recent episode was released yesterday (27th) and it's the episode where DEIDARA DIES. So I kind of have to watch that because his death is just epic.

EDIT: Wow. His death was even more epic in the anime. I bawwed. And he called Itachi beautiful.



It's my birthday. 23 holy shitttttt. 23 and I am sitting here bawling my eyes out over "Unlimited Sky." WHERE IS MY GUNDAM. Because nothing can fill that. ._.

Been MIA the last few days because I had to buy a new AC power adaptor for my computer and by the time I realized this on Wednesday, I was at 21% battery. So I had to shut it down until I could get a new one today FREE UNDER WARRANTEE so that was exciting.

Shitload of emails and PMs and comments to catch up on because I've been being lazy lately anyway, so sorry if it takes me a little while to get back to you.

Other than that, do I have anything to say? No. Life is boring as hell and I miss Gundam.

I can't embed these ones but HALLELUJAH IN ENGLISH. Episode 11 dubbed. I laughed. Only a couple of real differences I noticed in the dub though, so not bad. But his voiceeeee.

Rewatching season one makes me cry. Seriously. Why am I so wrapped up in this show?

Article from GoodHaro's blog

All four Meisters will likely be in the movie again. Allelujah's VA aspecially talked about how there was more to be done. Tieria's VA was just OMG NEW MACHINES!!! (ha) Setsuna's is as dependent on G00 as Setsuna himself is on Exia, which I find cute. And Lockon's seems kind of bored with the whole thing.

Also a blurb about how Graham finally got over himself when Setsuna freaked out on him. So all those people whining about how they didn't get a final fight can go to hell. It wasn't bad character development. It was brilliant.

Anddddd perhaps most interesting, there were two possible endings decided on for the TV series. The movie will use the one the wasn't used in the series, which makes me think that the movie will have a bad ending or at least a sad one.

So very curious and excited. I am addicted to this blog.

List of G00 stuff I have to buy as they come out:

July 8th - Mobile Suit Gundam Complete Best CD + DVD. (already pre-ordered and paid for)

After giving it some time and watching the subs, I can safely say that I am impressed with the ending, and fairly happy with it. Arguably, it was the best ending of an anime that I've ever seen, because they almost never end up making any sense. Most of my ranting is on the comm, but yea.

( More babble )

FFFFFFFF OH MY GUNDAM.

This was another Oh-My-God episode.

I still don't even know how to really respond to it. I shall wait for subs, but from what I understood, it was pretty amazing, if not horribly depressing and a little strange.

Next episode is going to be horrible. I can feel it.

I realize that the last 2 times I've made a Gundam episode post, I never replied to any of the comments because I've been such a spaz about it and get freaked out if I think too much. So at the moment I'm not going to babble about episode 23 except to say OH MY GOD. Maybe later I'll have something coherent to say (unlikely, as I saw it...24 hours ago now and I'm still OH MY GOD) Scared of what next episode's preview implies.

I'm ridiculously friggin depressed/panicked that the series is ending in 2 weeks. I honestly don't know what to do with myself. I've got nothing else going for me. I've even been CRYING over this. Pathetic, isn't it? Whatever.

PS - He's not dead.

I honestly don't know what to say about this episode except OH MY GOD THE SERIES IS ENDING AND IT'S SO OBVIOUS. Everything is so DOOOOOOOM-FINAL BATTLE already. And none of the spoilers look very good.

There is a movie coming out though, pretty much confirmed. Which is exciting.

( Few spoilers, though I'm sure everyone knows this stuff already )

EVERYTHING IS GETTING SUPER-DRAMATIC AND I AM GETTING SO FREAKED OUT AND UPSET THAT IT'S ENDING.

Holy shit this episode exploded my mind. It's ten times weirder with subs.

( Episode 21 discussion/spoilers )

All in all, this was a friggin amazing episode, though. Seriously, this episode pretty much redeemed any minor sloppiness that has been in the last few. We finally know what the hell the point of the GN particles are and why the Innovators are the bad guys. And SHIT THIS SHOW IS SO AWESOME.

I WAS ABLE TO STREAM THIS EPISODE.

And it was the shit. End-of-season bloodbath is beginning early (I figured they'd wait a few more episodes after the last one). Nekkie scene was hardcore lol.

Louise, I am so proud of you. <3

More after subs come out.
