Since my last post, I dived into some new anime. 8D I'll probably follow these series for a few more weeks, but I'm not all that excited about any yet. =/

Itazura na Kiss: Ah, the Taiwanese drama followed this pretty well. I only caught a glimpse of the TW drama, but their casting was pretty good. Oh dear, this reminds me of the bizarre situations that shoujo series can come up with...I mean, houses collapsing overnight? ^^;

Kimi ga Nozomu Eien Next Season: Was the previous series this pointless? >_> Everyone was crying their eyes out three minutes into the show. I remember liking Haruka in the previous series...but now everyone's just making things too complicated for each other.

Soul Eater: The animation for this is so pretty. Not too sure about the story. I liked Black Star's character design right away, but er, I don't like his personality. I'm not too fond of characters like Maka either. ^^;

Amatsuki: I was very curious about this series from the summary, but the first episode was a little "eh??" for me. Still, it's an intriguing setup.

Vampire Knight: *sees Kaname-senpai* Ahaha, hi there, Yunoki-senpai! Meh, I don't like vampires all that much, hence why I never read this manga. I really like the opening song though.

Still plan to try out: Nabari no Ou, Special A, Toshokan Sensou. Anything else I should watch?

I caught up with the Naruto anime too, and ended up taking a whole bunch of screencaps of Kabuto. 8D Does anyone like Kabuto? I haven't been able to find much good fics about him.

( fic: Twin Stars ch.12 (Shaman King, idol AU) )

Oh, and happy Hikago Day everyone. *____* I entirely missed the bg deadline. *stares miserably at her half-finished fic.* I'll probably never get around to posting it. Congrats to everyone who finished!

Oh hey, look, I wrote a piece for a fic I haven't touched in...a year and a half. Gosh, I feel bad even trying to return to this fic. It's still giving me the same problems...it's entirely AU for starters. I discovered since writing this that I personally don't like reading AUs that are completely different from canon. I adore AUs that explore things that might have happened differently...but AUs that plop the characters in entirely new roles are just not for me (ie: high school AUs). Hah, so I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking when I started this fic!

My characterization for Hao in this fic really makes me cringe. Everyone seems to be a bit...flat. I think I'm a bit too far out of touch with the series. I haven't read it in ages (and I only ever read it once 0____0;). But anyway, I decided that I'm not going to stress too much about that or else it'll end up not being fun writing this silly thing.

Hm, I heard that Shaman King is getting released again? Though, it won't be until 2009 until we see the real ending, yeah? Well, I'll be glad to finally see the end of the fight. Haha, I kept getting sidetracked while writing this...I ended up listening to a bunch of manga dramas, one of them being the drama for Kimi to Boku. I hadn't known about the manga, but the drama was very cute.

I don't draw well...and not drawing a lot means I'll never improve. -_-;; I wanted to draw dresses...and what better than to have crossdressing Hao from my pointless fic Twin Stars as my model? *must work on fic as well*

...does anyone have the Honey and Clover special that they can upload for me? I need more hachikuro. ;_; I cried when I watched the ending of the anime. >_>
