Site Updates

06/24/09 - Mayhem Comics of Ames is liquidating their anime selection for $10 a disc so I grabbed some Hellsing Ultimate Oh My Goddess (the original Ah! My Goddess), and two more discs of Gurren Lagann. They've been added to the Anime List. I'll have to watch them soon and get revews up soon.

06/16/09 - Ah! My Goddess new TV series season 1 and 2 added to the anime page. Apparently they were licensed by two or three different American companies for import. Here's hoping they have the same voice actors. Urd FTW!

06/09/09 - I finally got around to watching Black Lagoon. I'm impressed and happy to see that it's not only a good anime story with lots of kick-ass action, but it's one that even people who get turned off by stereotypical anime stylings will enjoy. It manages to completely circumvent the standard emotes, overly artistic stylings, gratuitous fanservice, and cultural reference that anime lovers love and outsiders are often scared off by... Especially the die-hard 80's American Cartoon fans that refuse to try new stuff... not that I know any of those >.>.

I've decided that the Anime List could use some sprucing up so keep an eye out for some more detailed review information and classification to better guide fans amongst the plethora of different anime genres. This is in response to finding it frustrating introducing newbies to anime and hearing about them getting shown stuff that is totally opposite of what they're looking for, just because it's generally considered good. Considered good an anime fanbase, the older of which just love it all because they remember back in the day when ya watched whatever ya could find and ya liked it. And you wondered why people used to like Akira... That's right, Akira sucks, I said it. It's still the only dvd I've ever returned.

Almost forgot, in World of Warcraft we downed Mimiron and just got General Vezax on 25 man. They're some interesting fights. I should have screenshots added to the site soon. Apparently I have to post all way back to Ignis and Kologarn. Oops. Should be posted in the next few days. Edit: Added the ones I have. Apparently I'm missing shots of Ignis, Freya, and Thorim. I added a nice shot of Sylvanas Windrunner as compensation.

05/28/09 - Anime list has been updated for the latest addition of Slayers OVA Collection. I reused the normal slayers season link since the OVA collection is a compliation of 6 OVA's individually released. DBZ Season Nine also added.

Also, there's FINALLY a current pic posted on the Pics page of me and my bro Sam with the new wheels.

05/14/09 - The anime list and reviews have been updated to reflect the addition of more Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Second Gig along with more Deathnote and Black Lagoon: Second Barrage.

And as to where I've been on the updates for the past few months, explanation is that in January I got a new job, then spent a few months procrastinating taxes, then got the new car mentioned yesterday. Life's been pretty busy between that, getting back to the gym on a regular basis, and raiding Naxx and Ulduar. We're currently beating our heads on Mimiron while summer plagues us with low raid attendance.

And then there's also the issue of my desktop crashing. I'm still working on determining the problem. It's either the power supply, motherboard, or SP3 interacting negatively with Media Center and Vista. Luckily I had just revived the old laptop.

05/13/09 - Pics of my new car, a 2006 Chevy Cobalt, are posted on the Pics page. I also updated the site with many new World of Warcraft Screenshots to show off the new boss kills.

02/15/09 - Deathnote, Ninja Nonsense, Slayers Season 1-3, Gurren Lagann, and more DBZ added to the anime list along with reviews.
