Hello everyone,
This past weekend has been really great, but before i get started, id like to thank all of the people who have been taking the time to visit my anime World and Myotaku and have been giving me feedback as well as have been subscribing :) This weekend was really productive. I managed to make some cool new friends here and in turn they have moved me back into the swing of my old anime swashbuckling was lol. Yesterday i found myself watching anime dvds until i fell asleep lol. Im also proud to say that i managed to create a wallpaper and a card yesterday. They are pretty simple in nature, but it was still fun to create something for the first time in years, thats for sure :)
After i finished posting yesterday, and made my visits to other worlds on theotaku - messaging, commenting, etc. I found myself pulling out anime dvds, trying to make a choice of what to watch first lol. I always hate having to choose, and yesterday was no different lol. I put a stack of about 10 dvds on my computer desk and started browsing the otaku to see if anything would spark an intent to watch any of the certain dvds i had in front of me, and almost immediately i got messages from Xaos and Ryosuke(sp) Forever. they gave me opinions on what i should watch next and took it to consideration immediately lol. First i watched "Samurai X: Trust and betrayal", then i watched "Serial Experiments Lain: volume 2", then "MADLAX: volume 1". I was just starting to watch some episodes of "Blue Seed" when i finally fell asleep lol. I had a great time though, I really enjoyed Samurai x trust & betrayal. i have the directors cut, so im not sure what is different about that version. If anyone knows, id sure like to know lol, i may look up on it sometime today ^^
"Serial Experiments Lain" was pretty wierd lol. i couldnt really catch on to it much, Id say partially due to the fact that i dont have and havent seen the first volume. I had always thought that it was the first volume but when i inspected the back of the case a little closer , i realized that my dvd started with episode 5 lol. It was still enjoyable though, id say its on a similar wavelength of GANTZ and .Hack//sign. Its quite intruiging thats for sure :)
Next was MADLAX. Ive had this dvd since it was first released and i had never watched it lol. even though i was pretty tired while i was watching it, it was still a great show. i found myself liking the opening and ending themes, so i may just try downloading them later on today lol. The dvd had alot of extra stuff on it though, like Japanese promos, sketches, an unused opening sequence and textless opening and ending animations, so all of that certainly added to the fun time i had watching this. It has violence, shooting, women kicking ass, so whats not to like? lol
The other dvds i pulled out were
ZOIDS : volumes 1 &2
Aura Battler Dunbine : volume 1
The 12 Kingdoms : volume 1, 2, &3
the Legend of Zelda: Gannons Evil Tower
RahXephon : volume 1 and 2
Nightwarriors: Darkstalkers Revenge
So i guess thats the list i'll be asking help to choose from today lol, so if you've seen any of these dvds and think they should be the next one i watch, feel free to let me know ^^ I enjoy all the feedback i can get and especially having conversations with other fans about series that we may have common interests in!
Oh yea, Id also like to thank Xaos for allowing me to guest post on his "StreetFighting in the world" otaku world. I had a blast, and i certainly look forward to doing again sometime soon :)
Well i suppose that will be it for today, I hope to chat with you all soon ^_^
stay strong,
Yamcha
