Hello Everyone,
It's good to finally make time to sit down and post, thats for sure! :)
Ive recently bought some new anime dvds, so im glad to be able to put up some pics in this post for you guys and possibly a little info in case any of you are looking to buy any of them for yourself. hopefully it will be of some help :)
Lately i havent really been up to much, mostly work, and ive also been haging out with my best friend alot. Last weekend i went to a KISS concert in Dallas, and it was really fun. It was awesome to actually see them live, and i actually got a seat that was pretty close :) i took alot of pictures and i even got some videos as well, so hopefully i can get those uploaded for you guys to check out soon :)
Ive also been playing quite a few games lately as well. I bought some new games and i havent played one of them yet (Unreal Tournament 3) so ill probably play that when im done posting lol.
Well, here are the pics of the anime dvds ive recently bought :)
Monster Season 1 box set
I bought this last thursday before i left work, and so far ive really been enjoying it. i had heard alot of people talking about it here on theotaku and when i saw it was a new release in our electronics department, i knew i wanted to pick it up. This Boxset #1 has 15 episodes on 3 discs and it cost 34$ at Wal Mart.
Evangelion 1.0
(sorry about the sideways pic lol)
To be honest, when i bought this dvd, i had really high hopes - but when i watched it i actually became dissapointed. To make things short - its simply just a moviefied version of the first few episodes with some newly added segments and better quality animation. The cons about the whole thing is that the character Kaji was nowhere to be seen, spoken of, or heard about. i also noticed that some of the scenes he was a part of in the original Evangelion Series had somewhat been re-edited in a way where he was present. I havent looked up on it, but im really wondering why they would omit him like that - especially when he played such a big role in the series and he was tied to each character in some way. Otherwise, this dvd is what Hellsing Ultimate was for the Hellsing series - a re-edited/moviefied version of the first few episodes of the series, so i wouldnt get your hopes up for something spectacular unless you are big into Evangelion lol.
GIJOE Resolute
I found this dvd about a month ago one morning before i left work and it shocked me because i never knew that they had made a GIJOE anime movie lol. I bought it and came home and watched it, and i must say that i was pretty impressed :) The animation was good, the story was good and the action had been turned up quite a bit to the point that some characters died. Even for an old school GiJoe fan like me it was still cool to watch. The only drawback was that it was a bit short, but who knows - maybe there are sequels on the way, who knows lol. All in all it was a good movie and i reccomend it to any anime or GiJoe fan, thats for sure :)
Well, i suppose that will be all for today, i think im going to play a couple games and try to finish this MONSTER box set before i get too tired lol. It is good to post again and i hope you all enjoy it :)
i hope to chat soon :)
stay strong,
Yamcha
