Dammit Toony, you've already surpassed me. I'm gonna go play some Sengoku Rance myself.

I finished route A and AA of Chaos;Head and also finished the Bokurano manga.

The Bokurano manga was pretty good.  Although it's not my biggest thing ever.  I found other works by the same author which look interesting too.

Anyway the big one.  I was going to hold off until I announced my completion of route B for Chaos;Head too but...IT'S NOT WORKING.  Like in Remember11 I can't get the damn ending(s) to trigger and I really don't feel like restarting the entire game again when I got every flag perfectly for it.  I even started a new game after A & AA and everything!

Geh.  Why won't you trigger...might just read scripts online, the B route is suppose to be the 'true route' too!

Took a break from western animation and tried out Angel Beats!


1/3 sappy, 1/3 unfunny comedy, 1/3 legitimately emotional. A bit disappointed, but the latter third at least made watching worthwhile.

When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Watching Avatar: The Last Airbender. It counts close enough for anime right?
It definitely picks up steam the further in it goes so far, and the finale for Book 1 was suitably a step up in intensity.

My only real gripe with it so far is that some of the scenes (especially emotional ones) can feel a bit rushed, like you know the necessary silence seconds were cut out to try and fit more into each episode.

Currently watching most everything from the current season. Standout shows that I'm enjoying above the others include, Hyouka, Aquarion Evol, Sankarea, Tasogare Otome x Amnesia, Space Brothers, and Upotte!! because I'm a bad person and it makes me laugh.

Dammit Toony, you've already surpassed me. I'm gonna go play some Sengoku Rance myself.
**sigh** I really should reload my game and get back to it, problem with SR is that as much as I love the game I still haven't beaten it once. I usually get around 15 or so territories in and then end up losing my drive to play after marathoning it for a few days. Then when I inevitably go back to the game, I load my save, stare at things and wonder what I was doing, exit out to the main menu and start a new game...

I found the second season to be the high point of the series. You're in for some good stuff, and in no small part due to this character showing up;

I'd want to play Muv-Luv just to play Muv-Luv Alternative.  Otherwise known as the HIGHEST RATED GAME ON VNDB

EDIT:
I finished The Virtual Turnabout in one sitting, yay.  Good fancase, onto the next one!

Why is it 11:30am.

Sequels could be systematically over-rated though, seeing as anyone who didn't like Muv-Luv wouldn't check out Muv-Luv Alternative to play and rate it.

Thanks for VNDB though, i might use that site.

It's an okay site the only thing I don't like is everybody is not me so games I really liked can have low ratings and games I loath can have amazing ratings.

That's a problem with ratings in general; it's easy enough to say something's an 8.1 or whatever, but an 8.1 for who?

Well I am in the 100s in Prince of Tennis and I am starting to sort of warm up to the series a bit more. Some stuff still bugs me but most of the other issues I've had are going away.

I think what it could be is that the battles are starting to become more dynamic with a lot more twists and turns... when earlier it was all about them using what you already knew they had.
