No, I just like anime that involve gender-bending and hadn't heard of that one =)
Its just one character, one very androgynous character.
The anime is lackluster itself, and half of the characters have disgustingly large breasts.
And the camel toe, dear god the camel toe .

Bah, never mind, then.  I have no bone to pick with "camel toe," but shows that are just boobs kind of disinterest me.

Maybe it's just my weird sense of humor but I was laughing nonstop at Sekirei in a "so bad it's good" sort of way. I could never decide whether they were being serious with the anime or not.

Very few anime series I've watched took themselves completely seriously.  I suppose there's Death Note and maybe Kaiji (if you ignore the second ED and the narrator going crazy).  All the rest seemed to have some element of parody or self mocking.

It's Halloween! That means I must marathon through HSoD. Or Death Note. Or Soul Eater. But probably HSoD.

Indeed.  First thing I ever read, too.

So yesterday I watched Lupin the 3rd: Castle of Cagliostro.

Such an amazing movie, I can't believe I'm only watching it now.

Lupin is one of the classics of Anime.

Because it's Halloween, I am obligated to post this:

Soul Eater - This Is Halloween AMV, which is one of the best AMVs I've seen. The version used for the AMV is not the original, but it fits with Soul Eater quite well in my opinion.

Here's the original, but yes I agree, best AMV to watch on Halloween.  Awesome in a million ways.

Someone told me that F/Z's Caster's VA is actually Big Bird in Japanese Sesame Street.......that explains a lot of things...
Hahahahahahaha his voice is so squeaky it's so true oh my gog hohoho.  I'm like 50 pages away from finishing volume 4 also so that's sick as hell.



Anyway.

           Anyway.
                                 ANYWAY                                        Anyway.
                                  Anyway.

    Anyway.

I FINISHED TSUKIHIME  oh my gog is that even possible what what WHAT

...And that's just the beginning.  I started PLUS+DISC which I have translated and Alliance of Illusionary Eyes was pretty good.  Nasu should just stick to short stories, seriously he's actually pretty good at that.  Maybe I was just enchanted by the Kirikiri engine.  I also finished part 1 of the "characters from the story talk about the game itself" which is basically a tea party since everybody is having tea.

Man I like the Kirikiri VN engine so much more than Nscriptor.  Screw Nscriptor.  Even if every 07th Expansion game will be on it argh.

Time for more PLUS+DISC, then like uh Kagetsu Tohya, the three Melty Bloods (I'll make sure to use a nice desktop keyboard so I CAN KILL SERVANTS FASTEREREST), Fool's Errand, etc etc

Then maybe I'll finally be able to watch the Carnival Phantasm OVAs.  :3  Shinji-baka

And of course I still want to play Battle Moon Wars and fangames like that.

So yeah, Tsukihime was neat.  Probably my least favorite VN out of all I've finished but that's a tough competition man.  DO NOT  I repeat DO NOT start Tsukihime as your first VN, argh.  The engine is old, there's no voices, the story is usually dull, it's incredibly brutal sometimes.  It's not...something you should start with.  Start with Umineko or Fate/stay night (expect maybe the HF route).  Seriously.  Starting with say stuff like Saya no Uta or Tsukihime would probably just scare you into never playing VNs again.  And I don't mean like OOO IM SPOOKY OR SCARY horror I mean like, WHAT THE FUCK ARGH WHAT AM I READING horror.  Which is very common in a Nasu or Urobuchi work.

Meanwhile, Fate/Zero continues to be the greatest thing ever.  I am so happy this will be the first LN series I finish.  It's so good argh.  I'll be sad when it's over.  So sad.  I'm already sad it's so powerful.

Oh, speaking of sad.  I'm also getting caught up with Gunslinger Girl.  On volume 10.  I admit I didn't expect Sandro and his cyborg to get so much focus starting from volume 6 or whatever.  They're basically main characters now.  I'm liking Jose's longer hair and Hillshire will be awesome forever.  Anyway I'm like 20 chapters away from catching up and it's soooooooo melancholic.
I might watch the Madhouse adaption later.  Oh that reminds me another incoming spoiler
Spoiler: spoiler spoiler (click to show/hide)
ARRRRGH

Well I guess I'm done blabbing.  Good to see you watching Kaiji S2 Sir Josh.

I started watching the new HunterXHunter anime.  So far its pretty much identical to the old HunterXHunter anime.   :o

I'm not sure what the point is of remaking an anime to have the same story as the first one...

I finished Fate/zero!  Sure I still have to read Heart of Freaks and the Notes but those are little trivial matters.  Man, I finished Tsukihime yesterday and Fate/zero today.  Talk about timing.  Most Tsukihime routes end on November 1st too...

Talk about an ending.  That was like NGE-level of catastrophe and turmoil.  Just a massacre that left you feeling melancholic and unsatisfied afterwards.  Man I need to go look at those illustrations now.

EDIT:
So this is what being a Type-Moon fan feels like.  Man no wonder there's so many.  Having the same abbreviation as it means nothing!  TM TM TM TM

How do you read, or play these things without killing yourself? I can't stand finishing a good series or a good book because it leaves me feeling empty. But you....you just plow through them one after another, it would kill lesser people.

EDIT: it's just not juts.
