anime updates

and now, for the long over due updates!

beck: mongolian chop squad

still can't get over koyuki's rendition of the beatles classic I' VE GOT A FEELING.

the anime started out slow and bored me until the middle part. it's a really good thing that i did not give up on it. i think how the anime ended was "right". because that's what happens in real life anyway.

death note- major spoilers

i love love love death note! the art is fantastic. the plot is not very new but because of the anime's fast pace and the believable characters, i got hooked- until i got to the part where L dies.

the anime should have ended with L's death. new characters are introduced and the story becomes cheesy and the pace slowed big time. it redeems itself with its last few episodes.

raito dies in the end. i hate the manga ending. some people thinks it's how he should die considering the things he did but i believe raito didn't deserve to die that way. he was already defeated, and that was enough.

the anime ending is way better.

i love raito's character. he starts out as a normal student and then becomes a self righteous person who thinks he's god. but despite his incredible way of calculating how things will turn out and unbelievably strong will to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, he's still very human.

if you haven't watched or read death note yet, i suggest you search the net for websites with free anime/ manga downloads and read/ watch it now!

death note

Yagami Raito, a top-ranking high school kid, is spacing out one day at school when he notices a weird notebook lying on the school yard, entitled "death note". It looks like some prank from a sick individual, since it's telling that if you write the name of a certain person in it while having his/her face in ones mind, that person will die, anyway and anytime you like it to happen. Even if it looks like a trick, Raito sees it as a real thing.

His last doubts are gone when one day he finds a hideous monster in his own room: a real god of death, a shinigami called Ryuuku that claims the death note was once his but now acts as a special bond between him and Raito. With the death note, Raito has the power to kill without breaking a sweat and he decides to use his power to protect the innocent and kill all the brutal criminals in this world and to be truly a human god. But then he gets over his first kills and the whole world wakes up and realizes that something is happening and things start to get out of hand...

i watched death note's first episode because my friend digi kept on insisting that i should. he has not yet watched the whole episode but he kept on telling me that the story was cool and the animation was awesome. how he knew that death note's story was good without even watching the first episode, i have no idea.

anyway, i'm getting tired of honey and clover because nothing much happens and i'm getting bored and i'm really not into shojou so i gave death note a try.

so far, i like the animation. i like how the characters look. and the dark/ gothic, witch hunter robin like vibe is cool. i checked out the manga and the artwork is even better.

the plot is not new at all: a boy who wants to rid the earth of all evil but whose means is morally questionable. the end justifies the means type. we saw it in yuu yuu hakusho's sensui shinobu already and a number of other anime series. i'm kind curious how the story will develop. since i've only watched the 1st anime episode and read the 1st chapter. i'm eager to know what would make this series different and what other anime reviewers are raving about.

i've been downloading DN's other episodes and manga chapters here in the office since the internet here is faster.hehe. it will be done before the day ends today. i'll be able to watch episode 2 tonight and read the other manga chapters tomorrow. i can't wait!

3- 5- 4

hebi goes to a department store run by cats to get their very own uniform.

konoha organizes an itsuki search team.

everybody wants itachi.

it's getting boring. when are they going to fight?

ugly teeth chapter 347

so sasuke defeats orochimaru and then calls this naked boy with ugly teeth.

what's with his teeth? does he use his teeth in combat? is he related to that akatsuki shark man?

i'm getting bored with the manga already.

i hope something exciting comes up. soon.

hit in america

i love collecting anime series. i have a bad habit of keeping my anime cd collection in a cabinet and then forgetting about it.

i realized last saturday while trying to organize my cd collection that i still have about 4- 5 series to watch. i decided to watch BECK. it's about koyuki a normal boy who lives a boring life until he meets ryusuke and gets introduced to rock music.

i'm on episode 11. the manga review was good. i get my reviews at http://www.point-blank.cc (in fairness to pointblank, their reviews have not let me down) i thought the anime would be good too. unfortunately, it's pace is too slow for my taste. but the weird thing is, i can't stop watching.

i'll be another watching 3- 4 episodes tonight. i'm willing to risk permanent brain damage just to find out what happens to BECK and its members. haha

deviantart attack

i've been a deviantart member and appreciator since 2004. i can' t remember how i stumbled upon the art sharing community but i'm very happy i was able to discover it. for 3 years, i've been browsing, appreciating, and downloading anime fanarts and photographs from deviant art. it's about time that i share my favorites to you!

since i'm naruto/ bleach crazy these past few months, most of the artworks that i will be sharing are fanarts from naruto and bleach. and i'm sooo loooving macro photos of fruits and flowers, so expect fruity and floral photos.haha

i hope you enjoy them.

here's my first share:

NARUTO: hakuu by ~xDplushie on deviantART

i've never liked hakuu from naruto. can't relate with his sentiments. but this fanart is soooo good that i'm willing to forget that hakuu was such a wussy. sorry hakuu fans. hehe

try to check out xDplushie's deviantart gallery i'm sure you'll find more goodies there.

intermission

we interrupt this post valentine's date special for an important naruto update.

yuhii kurenai, team 8's sensei, is pregnant. it has been confirmed yesterday by one of our reliable sources.

now, back to our regular programming.

TKO

just finished reading Naruto Manga chapter 341 at narutofan. it was a pleasant surprise, really. i didn't expect they would update so soon. but i didn't feel even a tiny bit of excitement. unlike the past chapters, shikamaru vs hidan, where waiting was painful and reading was pure happiness.

chapter 341 was predictable. of course naruto would beat that kakuzu guy to pulp with his shuriken- with- rasengan- in- the- middle no jutsu.

i'm curious what happens after naruto and company beats all the members of akatsuki? and what happened to jiraiya, team gai, and team 8?

i can't wait to see neji fight! he's gorgeous. he'd be the perfect boyfriend if he'd lose that destiny crap of his.hehe.

anyway, the wait for the next chapter starts again.

naruto update

i never expected chapter 339 to be released under one week after 338! the quality of the scans does not matter anymore. finally, shikamaru was able to get rid of that asshole hidan. one down, one more to beat. i can't wait to see naruto's new technique.
