Sakasama No Chou
17 January 2006
Well, no sooner than I start complaining about how FFXI has become annoying to play I have 2 days of good old fashioned fun. First one was helping Rhiana out with a few quests and helping with her AF. It's been a long time since I did that and I'm glad I had the opportunity to do so again. The second one was partying with Ardel and Cata again. I actually got a phone call from Ardel on Sunday which kind of freaked me out at first because I never gave him my number. /laugh But it was a good night, over 20,000 EXP and an enjoyable party (ignoring the dumb Red Mage and Samurai). Can't wait until the next one.
Saw the first episode of Kashimashi last night. I've been wanting to watch this anime since hearing that Horie Yui was voicing one of the characters. It was actually only just aired on the 11th of January in Japan so whoever did the torrent was quick on the draw. I didn't have any idea of the story but I have to say, the first episode was quite dramatic. The basic premise is that Hazumu confesses his feelings to the girl he likes, Yasuna (Horie Yui), but gets rejected. Feeling extremely depressed he climbs the mountain close to the town while his friends desperately search for him. Meanwhile, in orbit above the Earth is a giant spaceship which begins to have problems and ends up crashing into the same mountain, at the same spot as Hazumu was standing. It turns out that Hazumu was killed by this accident, but because of an interstellar convention, the mysterious beings are required to remake him via some sort of cloning process. They announce to the world on giant projected screens that they are truly sorry to have killed this human and that they will return him. Only thing is they've (for some unknown reason) changed him into a her so that Hazumu is now a girl. This sets up a very interesting second episode which will be shown on the 18th. I can't wait, this series looks like it will be fun to watch.
