The amount of must-have video game releases this year is terrifying. Really terrifying. I’m poor as it is without having to buy five or more expensive games every month! First there was Bayonetta and Mass Effect 2 in January; then we have Bioshock 2, Dante’s Inferno, Heavy Rain, and White Knight Chronicles. And that’s not [...]

Personally I somewhat feel the winter season of anime is still getting started, but winter is closing in on its end and along with my seventeenth birthday spring will come soon. You know what that means, right? That’s right, a new anime chart is here!
This being the first version chart it may not be complete [...]
In my last post (which I made over a month ago!) I declared my three new year resolutions for 2010 and so far… I’ve failed them all. Well, I’m been watching pretty much the highest amount of anime physically possible (that’s one I didn’t fail), but blogging more actively and becoming more healthy are goals [...]
It’s late, I know, but it had to come some time. Right? Right?
Well, since I haven’t posted anything since December 12, 2009, I think I owe you all a “merry christmas” as well as a “happy new year,” and so I you such now. Wow, it’s the 6th of 2010 already, can you believe it? I still haven’t made any resolutions for the new year! Hmm, let me think about that as I carry on with the post.
OK, first things first: what awesome stuff did I get? Well, I got…

Yesterday I told you about a new Code Geass having been green-lit with more info to come in 2010; however it seems the gun has been jumped as a new manga series was announced in the latest issue of Newtype (which is actually the January issue of 2010 so I guess there was no real gun-jumping). This new manga series is called Code Geass: Shikkoku no Renya (Shikkoku no Renya can be translated as either Renya of Jet-black or Jet-black Renya) and takes place in during the Edo period which spanned 1603 through 1868…

I wanted to write about this yesterday when I found out about it but since I wasn’t going to publish my last post before today it got delayed. Anyway, here goes!
Do you remember that April Fools post I made eight months ago on the old blog? About there being a new season of Code Geass in production? Well, according to the Bandai mobile site it seems that Sunrise has finally gotten the message…
Va bene–I mean, “all right” – god, I’ve been playing too much Assassin’s Creed II – let’s begin!
I have been without a computer for over a month (if you wondered, I’ve been tweeting from my iPhone) and I just fetched my old laptop (which runs Vista… *sob*) from my mom’s place to my dad’s place where I am now a few days ago which I’ve used to catch up to the twelve shows I hadn’t watched since Fairy Tail the last Monday of October. October! Anyway, I think now is the time to finally start blogging again. I can’t tell you how much I’ve missed you all and just how right it feels to be writing again. Granted, the WordPress dashboard is a little bit dull…

Seven days ago (that’s a week, kids), Chartfag released his first chart for the upcoming winter anime lineup (that’s 2009-2010), although it only covers fifteen shows. To be honest I’m unfamiliar with most of these shows and I hope for some more exciting titles in the next edition…
I’m back, my new and old, stalking friends. Me and my friend went through the could-have-been-snow (but was not) rain from the Japanese book store Sun Ai to the games and computer machinery store thingy Webhallen (lit. The Web Hall) to SF Bokhandeln (lit. The SF Bookstore, where the “SF” stand for “science fiction,” although the store has got lots of manga as well – which is the only reason I ever ventured there in the first place) before we took the very crowded bus home, talking about hentai… Don’t ask. (It’s not as weird as it sounds, honestly!)
So, first we went to the Japanese book store, or so they call themselves, Sun Ai where my friend got two packs (tss, that’s weak) of strawberry Pocky and two very perverted poster magazines. Yeah… I, however, got ten – count them, ten – packs of strawberry Pocky, a pack of… milk Pocky (for a Japanese candy review I’m making), some other candies (one other variety Pocky) and the first issue of よつばと! (known as Yotsuba&! outside Japan)…
