I finally finished the Mahoraba manga after stopping a few years ago (needed to re-read some of it to remember stuff but it was worth it). It's a funny and light hearted story with loveable & eccentric characters, it will definitely make you laugh & smile so I recommend it for some fun reading.

I also admire one of the side characters passion:

There's an anime adaptation but the manga is the obviously the superior choice.

Watching the Mightiest Diciple and it frustrates me that the show often has things where I go: "Dang this would be amazing! if the show had the guts to actually do it"

For example

I hate when a series has a good idea but doesn't even attempt to pull it off.

The Jury is still out... if the show does ONE thing, just one... I will take back everything I say

Since I'm caught up with Tower of God I'll put my focus on The World God Only Knows.  Starting volume 4.  Also making progress with Fate/stay night behind the scenes.  Since classes are cancelled Monday that's a whole day to do stuff before I begin the Fall semester.

Yeah, I hate that feeling. It's like being on a cheap rollercoaster or something, and there's all these awesome-looking side paths, only you can clearly see the tracks and so know that those are just window-dressing. Blegh.

Switching from english to japanese dubs in Black Butler takes some getting used to.
At least it fits the silly scenes better.

The Kusunoki arc is my favorite so far.  :3

EDIT:
I'm totally stuck on 2/12 of Heaven's Feel in Fate/stay night.  Totally stuck.  I think I need to go back and gather more points so I don't just die every time.

Just finished Hellsing, I liked it quite a bit.
It's nice to see vampires be powerful and murderous instead of the current trend of representing them.

My only problem would be that;

I am thinking of watching something like Angel Beats! or Welcome to the N.H.K. next though.

Well he came.

Also angel beats is good and funny albeit a bit depressing towards the end.

No, yep. That's what I meant too. I want to come out of the theater completely fucked up for weeks.

Well that's 2/13 of Heaven's Feel.  I'll started 2/14 tomorrow since I've been playing Fate/stay night way too much today.  I didn't even start volume four of TWGOK, heh.

Everything I've watched for the past half-year or so has been depressing, no use stopping the trend now.
