And, well, some thoughts. I'm probably not breaking new ground with this given how long it has been around but, whatever. If you're like me and avoided it until now, spoilers below as usual. Obviously, I still have another ending to unlock from UBW and I still have to play through Heaven's feel. This little bit is solely about the Good End to... http://arson55.mee.nu/fate_stay_night_visual_novel Wed, 19 Nov 2014 21:26:25 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/fate_stay_night_again... Anime So, I think Fate Stay night has more posts than anything else here. Anyway, I just got the first Fate Stay Night on Blu Ray and just rewatched it in the first time since my last post about it here years ago (the sub this time as over the years my tolerance for English dubbing on shows has dramatically declined). The emotions of that show still hit me just as strong as ever. I cannot see that image at the end of the stuffed lion sitting on the desk without tearing up. I still haven't played the VN or watched... http://arson55.mee.nu/fate_stay_night_again... Mon, 10 Nov 2014 20:53:25 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/indexrailgun Anime Because I'm significantly behind the curve I've only just now gotten around to watching A Certain Magical Index and A Certain Scientific Railgun. And having seen both seasons of Index and the majority of the first season of Railgun, I'm thinking that, thus far, at least, Railgun is probably a better show. Despite that I think I prefer Index, just because of Index herself. I don't think any of the Railgun characters are quite as much fun as Index is. I'll have a full length post on something just as soon as I figure out what I want to post... http://arson55.mee.nu/indexrailgun Thu, 06 Nov 2014 23:44:40 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/no_need_for_continuity_a_look_at_tenchi_muyo_part_2 Anime So in my previous post I wrote about the OVA series and Universe, but I didn't mention any of the other Tenchi properties. I cannot speak to Tenchi in Tokyo, GXP, or the War on Geminar simply because, in the case of the later two, I've never seen them, and I haven't watched the former since high school. I fully intend to collect and watch them in time. The other thing I didn't speak about were the movies. Daughter of Darkness won't really be covered here as it lies outside the two continuities I'm discussing. But the two Tenchi Muyo... http://arson55.mee.nu/no_need_for_continuity_a_look_at_tenchi_muyo_part_2 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 23:05:05 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/post_forthcoming Other stuff Was originally going to add my next Tenchi post tonight, but I lost the post and I have to retype the whole thing. My fault really. I really should type these things up in notepad or something and then post them up here. So...yeah, tomorrow maybe? Should be Sunday at the... http://arson55.mee.nu/post_forthcoming Thu, 30 Oct 2014 22:42:54 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/no_need_for_clever_titles_a_look_at_tenchi_muyo_part_1 Anime So...Tenchi Muyo...anyone remember Tenchi Muyo? I do. And that is because Tenchi Muyo is fucking awesome. Anyway, up until the last couple of weeks I hadn't actually watched Tenchi since back in High School when it was on the Toonami roster so what...twelve/thirteen years ago? Well, I had watched the movies more recently than that but it has probably been at least five or six years since the last time I had seen them. Also, I had never seen the completion of the OVAs. Which...yeah, after having seen OVA 3...okay, not really missing anything there. Still, either I had forgotten... http://arson55.mee.nu/no_need_for_clever_titles_a_look_at_tenchi_muyo_part_1 Mon, 27 Oct 2014 17:36:00 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/a_quick_note.

Other stuff Have you ever been on the internet and found your old blog that you haven't updated in three years, and been like: 'Hey, I want to do something with this?' Well, I haven't. Actually what happened is I have started collecting the Tenchi series (So far the three OVA series and the Tenchi Universe series). I started watching them (So far the OVAs...going to start on Universe after I finish this post) and it made me somewhat nostalgic and I happened to think of this place and my top anime females list and wondered if this was still a thing.... http://arson55.mee.nu/well_this_is_strange.

And it was pretty good. I don't know that I enjoyed it quite as much as Thor. This despite Captain America being better paced, better written and despite it feeling like it had more of a point. The main difference is that whereas Chris Hemsworth was amazing as Thor, Chris Evans was merely good as Steve Rogers. In nearly every other way Captain America was superior, and yet in the end it just isn't enough. I will draw particular attention to Peggy Carter being a far more entertaining character than Jane Foster. That's not the fault... http://arson55.mee.nu/captain_america_the_first_avenger Sat, 13 Aug 2011 21:32:00 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/catherine Other stuff So, yeah, I got Catherine Tuesday (the same day I picked up Seven Samurai), and I finished it Thursday. I have never in my life played a harder game. Now, I admit, I'm not great at puzzle games, but I have never before felt the need to put a game on easy, which I did for Catherine after stage 3. On easy, well, most of the regular levels were too simple, being no challenge whatsoever, but a few of the bosses were still fairly difficult. But once I had it on easy I stayed consistently right at 99 retries remaining.... http://arson55.mee.nu/catherine Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:10:00 +0000 http://arson55.mee.nu/utena_re-release Anime I just saw that Revolutionary Girl Utena is getting re-released. The first two box sets are out now, and I'm just going to go ahead and order them. I'm a little disappointed that it isn't getting a Blu-Ray release since I'm trying to stick to Blu-Ray purchases (although I did get a DVD copy of Seven Samurai the other day). Still, that is totally awesome. I mean, I still have all of my DVDs, but still to have new box sets will be totally awesome.
