Even the teacher’s afraid of Taiga -_- (and has anyone, other than me, read the stuff on the blackboard?)

Completely missed the Furukawa Bread shop until ilifin pointed it out

Yes Minori is back to her normal dosage <3 And I can’t believe she ate the whole frekaing bucket of pudding. That’s disgusting.

Nice dodge, Ryuuji!

I spent 2 hours on Walfas.org’s Create a Touhou Character flash. Hes got some interesting things on his blog (including daily flash!)
[+Cokematic] is panther moe?
[+Cokematic] and i should play Touhou one day…
[Zeroblade-] not sure about the first, but yes, play touhou

First of all, some quick thoughts on some many Fall shows -

Below Expectiations:
Hyakko – The art just bugs me, and the Yuno-ish lead is depressing to watch. And plus if I wanted to watch a show with Yuno as the lead, I should finish Hidamari Sketch x365 first. (score: F for art and humor fail).
Shikabanehime Aka – This ones a toss up. You must remember, just cause a show is blow my expectation doesn’t mean it sucks (except for Kameko DX). Maybe I expected too much, being the Gainax fanboy that I am. I totally forgot my favourite Gainax works were all original works. Either way, I was expecting alot more action, and some actual storyline. I’m not getting alot of either in the first three episodes (score: D for double Uzis)
Kameko DX – I couldn’t even sit through the first episode (score: F for fuck I can’t watch this shit)
Yozakura Quartet – Nothing really interests me except for Hime. It’s still a so-so show but I’d rather watch Soul Eater. (score: E, not for excellent, that’s for sure)
Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka – Kugu Rei in a non-tsundere loli role? The story is started to pick up in episode 2 only to fall flat on its ass in episode 3. Plus you can still hear bits of her tsundere loli voice in ep 3 already. (score: C for could be better, but not bad)
Mouryou no Hako – mindfucked. (score: E for ‘efffffing hell is this shit?)

Just as Keikaku:
Sequels like Clannad ~After Story~, and Gundam 00 Season 2 pretty much left off wherever they stopped last fall (score: A for both).
Michiko to Hatchin – for me, the animation feels like there’s some Disney styled animation mixed in there. Its not a bad thing… actually quite interesting. Plot wise, its ok so far. I do want to stab Hana’s parents in the face though. (score: n/a)
Toradora - TAIGA ROLLLLLLLLLLL! (score: B for BANIRA SORUTO de)
Chaos;Head - Very nice animation, great story, lots of coke and a male lead that could give Shinji a run for his money. Great stuff, just as I expected. (score: A- for.. argh I’m tired of trying to come up with no-so-funny comments)
Kannagi - Imageboards are totally flooded with Nagi drawings, I don’t really understand why. Good solid show. (score: B-)

Beyond expectations/FABULOUS!
Tales of the Abyss – Yeah definitely one of the better rpg to anime adaptations I’ve seen in the past few years. Bump of Chicken’s Karma is also a plus. And while some people (I forgot whos blog I was reading) thinks its cute (wtf) I think Ion’s lisp is annoying as hell. Or maybe I’m just bitter that he’s a trap. (score: B)
Gai-Rei Zero – “WTF” and in a good way. (score: A+)
Toaru Majutsu no Index – Loli nun, and loli alchoholic smoker. Mikoto is fine too (I thought the scene where she brushes her hair with her hand and lightning comes out was absolutely awesome). (score: A)

So I woke up today to the sounds of MSN message spammage at around 9am. Apparently I was supposed to be playing MGS4 online with a friend. By the time I got everything downloaded and set up it was 10 something, and we played for a few hours. Very reminiscent of my days spent playing CS (apparently still a topseller on Steam? wtf) I was expecting my copy of Star Ocean – First Encounter to arrive today, but it didn’t so I’m kinda disappointed about that :/ I did finish FF VII – Crisis Core last week (finally!). I think Ritchan beat it in like less than 2 weeks, while I’ve had mine since… umm May I think. The game is just ok, definitely overhyped. I just spent a few minutes playing with materia fusion to get some spell that also adds 80% HP. After that, its just spam X for the win. I basically knew the whole storyline before I started playing, but the game was still kinda fun. And as usual, SQEENIX fanboyiism for the lovely cg cutscenes.

Recently, I’ve been wanting an Xbox360 more and more, so I can play Tales of Vesperia and Star Ocean 4 next year. I swear, if SO4 is Xbox exclusive, Microsoft will of finally won me over. While, we’re on the topic of consoles, has anyone seen this godly modded PS3 yet? (at the time of writing this post, it is going for $17,000 USD)

I ended up trying out Mcdonald’s new Double Wasabi Fillet o Fish:

And even got some fish sticks too. It tastes better than it sounds (the fillet o fish that is)… I swear

EDIT 2:

[00:50] <+Cokematic> OH MY FUCKING …
[00:50] <+Cokematic> i know why i didnt get my Star Ocean First Enouncter Today
[00:51] <+Cokematic> fuck

[00:51] <+Cokematic> FFFFFFFFFFF
[00:51] <@Alkenshel> GJ Coke

[00:52] <@Alkenshel> GJ WHOEVER THAT FAGGOT WAS
[00:52] <+Cokematic> i obviously did not order/pay for it
/RAEG

Well it’s like 1am. Nothing I can do about it till I wake up tomorrow. Not too worried about not getting my game. It seems like noone was home at this wrong address (thus why I got a voicemail about it… unfortunately my cellphone was out of batteries most of the day and I didn’t find out until 15 minutes ago… -_-)

…and it has proven to be detrimental to her popularity in my eyes. I always liked her as a side character, but as a main character she’s just too energetic for me. And I’m still not used to the OP – I don’t really find myself liking it too much. Anyone notice how Ryuji thrusts when he cooks in the OP?

Ok yeah that doesn’t work in real life apparently (or maybe I just suck at cooking).

This was screaming Honey & Clover.

Ok … creepy. Definitely creepy stalker.

Although Taiga can be srs, I guess she has her scary side too.Salt de Vanilla is <3

Also, thanks ilifin for the Toradora 3 t/l notes. Fansubbing is srsfkn.biz, no really it is.
