So what’s been happening

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Well, I “decorated” my wall with some of my better drawings, and some drawing I didn’t do. (the colored one)
Photobucket

I’ve ordered more stuff (yeah, I like ordering stuff)
And I’ve watched the first season of Genshiken.
I’ve played Tales of Vesperia for 20+ hours. (Released in PAL territories a year after release in the US? really. I didn’t think it was that hard to translate it from english to…. english >_>)
I have to finish it again the day I get myself an PS3 though, since the x360 version is seriously lacking in the pirateloli department. *rage* (I’ve known this for quite some time, but it still pisses me off.)
And I’ll probably get the japanese version, for better voices. (Though I have to admit, the english voices aren’t THAT bad)
And screw Karol (?), I think that’s his name, I hate him so much I can’t even bother remembering his name. (I usually call him Karlos)
Why remove my pirateloli and keep the most annoying kid of all time?

Oh, and go watch Nostalgia Critic’s Transformers 2 review.
Here
I really don’t care for tranformers, but the review is still awesome.

And I noticed that MegaMari (that one game I got a week ago) reads “Maid in Saitama” instead of “Made in Saitama”, which I find kind of hilarious.

On a sidenote: I’m just barely surviving with it being like 40 degrees (C) every day, who said norway is cold all the time? >_>

Jrock night\Soracon buying spree

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

So yeah, revealing most of what I ordered
First of, touhou games :3
The official ones (which were in stock)

Touhou 8 – Imperishable Night
Touhou 9 – Phantasmagoria of Flower View

Too bad Embodiment of a Scarlet Devil weren’t in stock, it’s my favorite, and the first non-pc-98 touhou game.

And I got two Touhou spin-offs, Megamari (Like Megaman, just with a touhou theme\ characters\music, and まとめの音楽集その1 by “Moon Goddess”)

Kinda dark picture, but what is haruhi characters doing on the cover…
And why does this page list it as a book?

http://doujinshi.mugimugi.org/book/145552/

It sure as hell doesn’t look like one, atleast mine does look an awful lot like a CD. >_>

Then there’s just one spin-off to go, it’s on its way, more on that when I get it.
Whatever, moving on…

A new headset, yes, I have one from Koss and one pair of Steelseries, but I wanted some smaller ones, I figured I should get some which are a little bit “exotic” or atleast unusual in comparison to what people around here usually have.
So I decided on XCalgo, some japanese brand, I noticed them over at akibaharanews some time ago and they looked pretty cool.
Here’s a GIF

Hmmmmmmmm…………

:)

I also got some manga, I don’t like to buy long series, I will make exceptions though, for series I really like, like Kare Kano and Urutsei Yatsura :3

First of we have:
Tenchi Muyo: Sasami Stories
It’s just a one shot, and it was cheap, so I thought “why not?”
Photobucket

Next one:
Kare Kano
Photobucket
I thought there were just like 1 book, but apparently there’s 21 volumes (IIRC)
I love mangas like this and Lovely Complex, I don’t know why, but these are now both amongst my all-time favorites.
At about 600 pages, this is huge.
Comparison shot:

Last but not least, another random buy. (I influenced Nekoflaa to buy it too :P )
Mao-Chan (By Ran and Ken Akamatsu (Of Love Hina fame, one of the characters even bears a striking resemblance to Narusegawa from Love Hina))
Wikipedia says 4 volumes, but my version is just two slightly larger volumes. (There seems to be somewhere in between 100 and 200 extra pages with info and a side-story)
Photobucket

Comparison shot again.

It was so cheap, couldn’t not buy it. :P

And I needed a new bookmark, so yeah.

And I got some YoruichiXSoifon fanart. :3
Photobucket
That means I didn’t draw it.
I actually haven’t drawn anything in quite a while, still, a bunch of girls requested that I’d join Deviantart, which I now consider doing.

So yeah, I think this be it. :3
