Why do I hate myself? With school almost over, I have the necessary amount of time to do the videos now! Cool. No new art really, been busy with full time job and my two fun classes. Have some /cgl/ otome art. Not really otome, more like drawings for friends.

Music

These are the songs I've played most on my itunes this year. I think they're pretty awesome, maybe you can listen to them and find something you like also? Maybe.....just maybe.

Art Dump

Art dump time.

Occult Academy

What?! The third anime review this week?! Christina, do you have a lot of time of your hands? Well yes I do. Todays horrible anime is Occult Academy! I really did think it was going to be good...oh, was I wrong. Occult Academy actually started off really good for the first two episodes, had a pretty good plot, great animation, and the characters weren't half too bad. The whole anime is suppose to be a mystery, horror occult genre. And then the third episode rolls around, and they start talking about their feelings...and friendship. Gay.

The first episode starts off fairly well, the main character, Maya, is coming back to the school she abandoned for her father's funeral. Then her father's dead body gets possessed and starts running amok causing all sorts of problems. After chopping off her dead father's head, everything goes back to normal! Or did it? At the end of the episode, a naked man from the sky who looks like Apollo Justice floats down to where Maya is. He is a time traveler from the future! Cooool. He has been sent here to destroy the Nostradamus key to save all of mankind from aliens! Wait....what? Yes, on July 21st, 1999, the setting of the story, a portal to a second dimension will open up and aliens will invade the earth. The naked man is Fumiaki, a washed up young adult who use to have psychic powers when he was a kid but can't use them anymore. To his dismay, he got sent here to stop the world getting fucked without any training. Kay.... so things got a lot gayer all of a sudden.

Each episode proceeds to be worse off then the last, turning the whole series into "lol friendship" for about 7 of the middle episodes. How do you go from occult to gay friendship?! I mean, "occult" is in the name of the series! But of course, it gets worse. From horror, to friendship, it finally went to magic. IT TURNED INTO FUCKING UMINEKO. For those who don't know, Umineko was a series that was suppose to be a murder mystery, but then blamed it all on witches and magic! :3 So now we have witches fighting everywhere, and everything is fucking magical. At the end, they beat the bad witch who has huge boobs and everything is a-okay. Or is it? Turns out, the world got fucked cause Fumiaki meets his younger self and "lol time paradox" happens. Now, this literally happens in the last 4 minutes of the show, like, are you serious? An alien comes out of the portal, and instead of letting them take over the Earth, Fumiaki gets all his psychic powers back and fucking just punches them with his mind, killing them and Fumiaki in the process. Cool, the world is saved, talk about awesome pacing right? Maya picks up young Fumiaki and then walks off into the sunset and fucks his little 9 year old ass most likely. END.

Animation: 8/10
Characters: 7/10
Plot: Fucking everywhere and everything 3/10
Overall: If you have nothing better to do, then watch it I guess.

Fucking magic.

I started watching this series today, and also finished it today. That's a good thing considering I probably wouldn't try to watch this tomorrow, or any other day. Lets start off by saying this anime is slow. Like, so zeta slow. The first episode starts off with a preview of wants going to happen later in the show. I'm usually okay with this type of story telling, but with this... What they showed didn't even happen till the end of the sixth episode. I had to sit through six slug inching episodes just to see the attention getter? Fuck. I should of just stopped at the first episode really, but of course, you can't judge a book by it's cover...or the first twenty four minutes.

First off, the anime has a really distinctive style that you catch right off the bat. All of the character designs were done by Peach-Pit. So everything is moe moe cute. And at first, I thought this anime was done by them. Unfortunately, no. It originated as a PSP game, which makes a whole lot of sense now, because for one, Peach-Pit makes fairly decent stories. This, not so much. It was actually made by the people who did Higurashi and Umineko. Coolio, I enjoy Higurashi, so I should enjoy this, right?

Basically, the whole town is infested with these werewolf type people. But they do not turn into hairy beasts nor do they sparkle in the sunlight. The werewolf people are attracted to regular humans, but if they kiss them, that person turns into a werewolf with side effects. So, basically whats happening, is all these cool werewolf people are trying to get in bed with the main character cause he smells good. Yes, I said it, BECAUSE HE SMELLS GOOD. The main character, Hiroshi, meets attractive girl who is a werewolf, then werewolf wants to rape Hiroshi. Then the Werewolf rape brigade comes in and kills the werewolf that had the hots for Hiroshi. This happens about three times through out the whole series.

The anime just reeks of bad PSP AI Love visual novel games. They tried to throw in some occult, mystery murder bullshit, but it was obvious that this was just a dating game.Once again, I was shot down thinking this anime would be good.......NOPE. All I can say is I am in love with the Character design of Kushinada, and its really really really making me want to cosplay her even though I don't like the series.

Art: 6/10
Characters: 7/10
Plot: 3/10
Overall: MEH

Anime Reviews

Cause I was too tired before to post a review, here we go. Some of the recent animes I have been watching....


Nabari No Ou

This anime is a fat fan girl's wet dream. Never dreamt I would being so angry watching a season of this shit. Basically, its about ninja in the modern world. A kid named Miharu, who isn't a ninja, gets a super duper awesome technique called the Shinrabanshou, which can basically do anything. Bad guys want the Shinrabanshou of course, and the good ninjas want to protect it and not use it, so there is your shitty plot. Half way through the series, they change the plot from trying to gain control over the technique to a boys love series. Secondary main character, named Yoite, wishes that he doesn't exist anymore because he has a dramatic past. Miharu agrees to grant his wish but then becomes too chicken at the end of the series, awesome right? The onyl good thing about this series is the pretty watercolor backgrounds. Every other episode there was a shitty plot twist, every character was generic as fuck, and the series couldn't stay on plot to kill itself. There is like, a bazillion characters, and they are all eighteen year old pretty boys who have emo pasts. It was a complete and utter disappointment. Thinking about this series makes me not feel as half bad about watching all of Tenjho Tenge.

AX 2011?!

Good news everyone! Its a suppository! AX 2011 might not exist year, or it will probably dwindle in size more realistically. AX is in debt, maybe it's because of the loss of attendees this year? Probably. AX officially has not given a total number of how many attendees it had this year. Remember last year, how AX was so fast to give the number of attendees out on the main AX website? It was ridiculous. This year, not so much. AX has only given out the total number of total estimated attendees per day, not an actual ticket count of 4 day passes, 2 day passes, ect ect. How do they think they can get away with posting "Lol, we had over 105,000 attendees!" Yeah, sure. So, with a lawsuit on their hands, censoring posts from their forum to facebook, losing around 300k in profits last year, plus a bunch of other bullshit, AX is doing just fiiiiine.

lol.
