Someone please explain to me why they are diving on opposite sides of the road:

Yayoi is sitting on the left side suggesting she’s driving on the right side of the road


Eiji is sitting on the right side suggesting he’s driving on the left side of the road

someone care to explain?

#dasaku@irc.rizon.net – where intelligent conversations take place … sometimes.

So I will be away from work for 5 days in a row (although 4 days have already passed)… without taking a vacation! partially thanks to typhoon tropical cyclone Nuri which is a cooler name than Fay, but that’s not really the point of this post. I spent most of the past 4 days doing nothing except chatting on IRC, playing some GTA4, and watching AIRA The Animation.

First off, many thanks to pantherRH for bringing this to my attention in the dasaku IRC channel:

First thought that came to mind was “DO WANT!!!” … I’m particularly interested in the “Day of Saggitarius” getup. The other one is… if-SOS-dan-forms-a-band getup? Its also quite cute, except Kyon and Istuki look totally gay.

Honestly, I’m not too into figures. I’ve never owned a figure that cost more more than $15 USD (it was a red Canti figure .. unfortunately.. his head snapped off a few years back T_T). Also, the last time I bought these Nendoroid petits, I was going for Kagamin. Unfortunately, I got a Konata, Miyuki and even Tsukasa! And when I went back to the store… they were sold out T_T.

Anyways, according to Jop, if I buy a case of 12, I should at least expect getting the set of 10 (and maybe the secret figure if I’m lucky). However, he was refering to the Negima set he bough .. which is not a Nendoroid petit set from Good Smile Company, so it may not apply here. If I can find someone to buy the doubles off me.. then I won’t mind buying two crates of them (amounting to 24 .. which should definately get me the set… unless I’m super unlucky… which might actually happen). If anyone out there has bought a case of Nendoroid petite, please let me know if I can get the whole set (not including the secret figure) in a case of 12!!

Also, Nendoroid Shana and Hatsune Miku are on my watchlist (pre-order of Miku is already closed at HobbySearch, but Play-Asia still has some, albeit slightly more expensive).

And ohbytheway, Nendoroid.org is a great site with all the GSC Nendoroid released so far. I’m still waiting for the day when a Gurren Lagann Nendoroid set comes out.

Secondly, some funny developments fansub dorama (so what’s new?) over at Chihiro subs. The article itself is short and can be summed up in one line “someone deleted out tracker stuff and we lost all our subs… halp plz!”. Now, I don’t watch their stuff:

Chihiro’s current/active projects

1. Penguin Musume <- kinda interhingested, but probably won’t watch.
2. To Love RU <- lol no.
3. Sekirei <- no
4. Ikkitousen <- no
5. World Destruction <-no
6. School Rumble San Gakki <- watching Wannabe’s version

but its kind of hard to imagine that between all their staff, they don’t have a copy of their own work. The only explanation I can think of is: “not even chihiro would archive chihiro’s releases.”

Anyways, there are many nuggets of gold amongst all the flames and blind faith, out there like this one:
“@koda: if u think ur better than Chihiro, try to sub faster than them”
So now speed => better?

and then you get stuff from the freaks of the interweb:

Hi, I am Lucy from Elfen Lied. I know why everybody, the leader of GG, Jaka, the sicko that impersonated Kristen , and people from deculture and other fansub groups, and a whole entire moron convention, are ganging up on Chihiro. It’s because, like I said in the end of episode 8 of Elfin Lied, “when you’re miserable, you need something that’s even more miserable than yourself.” And since you can’t find anything more miserable, you decide to make some one else miserable. It’s why and how bullying exists. When people are miserable, they seek to make someone else more miserable to make themselves feel better and superior. I was bullied when I was young, so I know. Those faggots killed my dog. T.T

and oh, btw, I think I might start by ripping off a couple limps… =)

I literally facepalmed.

Moving on then.  Thanks to Hemi, I’ve discovered the greatness of xkcd.

One of my favourite comics
Hey I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this somewhere (4-chan maybe?)

And last, but not least a LOL JAPAN video (someone’s got alot of talent and even more free time)
