Hello, and welcome to Yamcha's Anime universe! Some of you may know me from visiting my Myotaku page (username: Yamchaa), but if you havent visited or dont know me, then thats cool too lol. Im a big anime fan and ive been one for as long as i can remember. I collect anime movies, magazines, figures, all things related to anime, and im proud to say that i have a pretty hefty and diverse anime collecion which is usually constantly growing, and with this new world i hope to make new friends and spread my knowledge of anime to whoever may need it ^_^
Another thing i bought was a new webcam and microhpone, along with a video camera (Flip video recorder)
On July 7th, i participated in Bungie vs. The world which was a once in a lifetime playlist on Halo Reach. In the playlist, people from all over the world would be put against a team of Bungie Employees (people who created the Halo Games) and if your team beat them by 20 or more kills, then you would win a steak.
Here is a video of one of the matches i took part in, its actually one of my most dominant performances ever :)
The video follows my spartan exclusively, so youll get to see everything i did through the whole match :)
As for dynasty Warriors Gundam 3, ive really been enjoying it. Ive almost got everything unlocked, and im hoping that there is some 0083music to unlock thats for sure lol.
As some of you may know, the WWe Money in the Bank ppv is tonight, and CM Punk will be wrestling his last match (for now). Im still not sure what all is going to happen, who will win, or if something crazy will happen. Right now im starting to think that there is going to be another Montreal Screwjob lol. I do hope CM Punk wins though, so the story can still continue, i guess we will find out tonight lol.
Well, i guess im going to go play more of this DWG3, i sur hope to chat with you all soon :)
Im glad to be back posting lol. i know its been a few days since i last posted, so ive got alot of stuff to post to make up for lost time lol. Id personally like to thank stararnold for allowing me the Guest Poster status on 2 of his pages, i was surprised when i saw my guest posting list had jumped to 3 so suddenly, and i am looking forward to making progress in that direction soon :)
I guess ill start things off by saying (for wrestling fans) that im glad to see that CM Punk finally won the World Heavyweight Championship on WWE Monday night Raw last week. To be honest, Wrestling as of late had been kinda bleak and i had found myself watching it less and less by the week, especially after the WWE Draft since there would be no world championship on Raw since all 3 of the other World championships were on the other 2 shows. I was glad that CM Punk was drafted to Raw though, because i was excited that id actually get the chance to see him more, sine i dont get the Sci-fi channel where ECW is broadcasted (which is where he wrestled before being drafted to RAW) . Lady Luck shined her fortune on me last monday while i was watching RAW lol. I found myself waking up early and i was bored so i thought id record Raw while i was getting ready for work so i could watch it the next morning when i got home (because nothing good comes on tuesdays) lol. In the first few minutes of the show, Edge managed to make his way to the ring to show off to the crowd, and ended up being assaulted by Batista. While Edge was getting beat up, i went into the kitchen to get something to drink and when i came back into my room, CM Punk was inside the ring cashing in the world title contract he won at Wrestlemania, after putting the already beaten Edge in the GTS (finishing move) We had a new champ, which shocked me and brought a smile to my face. It had been a while since something in wrestling had actually surprised me, so its one of my favorite wrestling moments of all time for sure. Congratulations CM Punk, he's paid his dues and he deserves it.
Now onto the anime lol.
Throughout the week, even though i didnt post much i still managed to watch some more Newtype demo dvds. I also finished watching Roujin Z(finally) lol. Ive made 2 new wallpapers in the past couple days, one of Mr. Popo from Dragonball and a Street Fighter wallpaper that i made this morning. Im planning on making another one today, possibly related to Saint Seiya, so be on the lookout for it :)
well i suppose it is time to tell you all of my opinons of the episodes on the Newtype demo dvds i managed to watch :)
NEWTYPE USA DEMO DVD - NOVEMBER 2005 ISSUE
GHOST STORIES - episode 1
In my opinion, based on this one episode, this show seemed like a mixture of Scooby Doo and Witch Hunter Robin lol. Dont get me wrong, it was quite enjoyable and pretty different than most of the other anime shows ive seen and when i read the name of the show, i figured it would be like a collection of those japanese horror films. Its hard to say which direction the series goes just by watching this one episode, but id like to say that this episode was enjoyable and different at the same time, kinda like pokemon with magic spells lol, it has to be seen to be understood :)
SHADOW SKILL - episode 1
Shadow Skill was pretty cool, alot of action and best of all is that it is animated in the same way that "Legend of Crystania" is, so i warmed up to it quite well. It kinda had a Saint Seiya feel to the show, with the fighting and everything, but it had its own style, so its hard to find something off the top of my head to compare it to. Id really like to see more of the series though because it just started getting good towards the end of the first episode. Ill probably find myself looking this series up online later today lol.
GANKUTSUOU: THE COUNT OF MONTE CHRISTO - episode 1
first off, this was a pretty wierd show. Wierd in a somewhat unexpected good way i suppose lol. Ive read the book and seen the movie versions of the original "Count of monte Christo" and i must say that this anime has similar likenesses to the book, but is certainly its own craft. To be honest, its kinda depressing and intriguing at the same time. I found myself wondering who the good guys and who the bad guys were, everything seems shrouded in mystery, and only being able to see the first episode doesnt really help matters much lol. It was a different and interesting episode and id like to see how thingsturn out thats for sure.
NEWTYPE USA DEMO DVD: NOVEMBER 2003 ISSUE
SAINT SEIYA - episode 1
I really like Saint Seiya lol. I first saw this series a few years ago on cartoon network where it was called Knights of the Zodiac and was edited by the childrens animation company "DIC". That means that the blood was changed to a purple color and the curse words were taken out as well lol. I have the first volume of "Knights of the Zodiac on vhs and it is still enjoyable. However, after watching volume 2 of the actual "Saint Seiya" version, i knew that the original was the only way to go. Not only is it unedited with blood, violence and language, the japanese opening and ending scenes are in my opinion way better, even though i still like the ending of the KOTZ version. watching this series takes me back to the days of Ronin Warriors and Sailor Moon, and i reccomend this series to any old school anime fans out there. :)
PRETEAR - episode 1
This first episode didnt really explain alot. All i gathered from this episode is that there are a group of magicians from another dimension that come to earth to stop demon seeds from destroying the world, and they need the help of a "chosen one" on earth to help them beat it. Kinda like a blend of Inuyasha, Blue Seed, and Cinderella. It wasnt extraordinary, but it wasnt bad either, It had a good blend of comedy though and i managed to like a few parts. I found it to be enjoyable and comedic at times, but not along the lines of something i havent seen before :)
NEWTYPE USA DEMO DVD: MARCH 2003 ISSUE
RahXephon: episode -unknown
This was the first Newtype demo dvd that i ever recieved, it came with the first newtype magazine that i ever bought , and originally the dvds only had one episode on them and a few trailers. this dvd had an episode of RahXephon on it, but i do not know which episode it is because it doesnt say. I found this show to be pretty crazy, it reminded me alot of Evangelion- in all aspects.plot, Music, mecha,characters, dialouge. Id say that so far maybe this series isnt as depressing as Evangelion, but i have only seen this episode so far, so the night is still young lol. This episode has kinda urged me to watch the 2 volumes i have on dvd to try and learn more about it, ive heard alot of good stuff on it, so id hate to state an opinion on it until i watch some more of it :)
Well, I suppose that will be it for today, thats quite a bit of rambling if you ask me lol. Remember - if you have any in depth questions about any thing ive posted on here, feel free to ask anytime. I enjoy helping any way i can :) I hope you all enjoy the post and the wallpapers, hope to chat again soon :)
