| | sleep-deprived | ] | Seto no Hanayome appears to be a harem anime where the harem consists solely of a mermaid who's the heiress to a yakuza family and a guy with an afro. It also has a giant octopus. I can think of no higher recommendation for an anime.
(Disclaimer: I do not know if I am recommending this anime, because I don't have any plans to see past the first two episodes. But doesn't it sound awesome?) |

And of course I start watching Bleach again the week after the last Szayel episode before the filler arc. :| I watched it anyway, but mainly for Halibel and her hot Fracción. Mira Rose's voice is a thing of beauty. *_* Now, off to find the Szayel episodes on YouTube.
Yes, I know it's "Mila Rose". It's also "Harribel". (And "Sanderwicci".) Don't make me give up on my dreams, okay? D:
Also, I didn't think it was possible, but I may have found a Disney dub to rival Norwegian Tarzan: European Spanish Nightmare Before Christmas. I am seriously considering buying this CD. I haven't even seen the whole thing in English yet. :|
While we're on the subject, had an incredibly trippy Kingdom Hearts dream last night. I really need to lay off that game for a while. |

I... think I may have been playing Kingdom Hearts a bit too much recently. Luxord healed me the other day and I thanked him out loud. ._.;;
It has been way too many posts since I did a meme so I stole this one from tehseto. Name a fandom and I'll tell you 3 pairings I love, 2 pairings I consider shipping, and 1 pairing I hate.
Maybe I should wait until I actually have something to post about before I post. Nah. |

Hyvää ruotsalaisuuden päivää! :D
So I've been playing Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days over the past few days, and I'm officially in love with Organization XIII. They're such a big screwy family, it's kind of adorable. E... except for when ( SPOILERS )
On a somewhat related note, ( cut for lameness of plotbunny ).
Very little progress on NaNo. Maybe this weekend. Or maybe never! :D |

So apparently I am participating in NaNo too this year! By which I mean I wrote 200 words and then I realized I was a loser, so I stopped. Maybe I can shoot for a 500-word novel instead? :P
...
*fails forever* :D |

Happy November, y'all. And to anyone who's doing NaNo, I don't envy you good luck~!
Hope you guys had a good Halloween. I hung out with Tyma and it was pretty awesome. I miss being able to trick-or-treat, though. It was a great night for it. Had the right smell and everything. And, not that this has anything to do with anything, apparently we had a trick-or-treater dressed as Esmeralda and my dad didn't mention it till after they'd left. >:|
( And a meme, stolen from Yuki. Because that's what I do. Steal memes. )
Also, why didn't Kim Possible and Josh Mankey ever get together? In "Blush" he seemed like a really nice guy, but then after that we kind of... never saw him again. :\ (Yes, I am watching Kim Possible again, it is a really good show, fffffff.) (Edit: It amuses me that this is my first time using the "het" tag. :3) |

Things that have made me ridiculously happy in the past 24 (more or less) hours: - Hetalia Day 2009 with my dork friends - Seeing the Astro Boy movie immediately afterward with said dork friends - Szayel's dub voice fffffff - The answer to the New York Times acrostic (if you've done it you'll know why)
Also, I have been playing Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia a whole lot lately. (And I still have to actually pay Momo for it at some point. ._.;;) I really like this game. It's not a "true" Pokémon game, sure, but it's gotten me to care about the storyline and characters more than any other Pokémon game's done. And the writing is hilarious. If any Pokémon fans out there are looking for something to occupy themselves while waiting for HG/SS, you could really do a lot worse. |

| Yeah, I never post anymore. |

I was tagged for this meme like a month ago and then I forgot about it, I am so sorry .___.;;
Respond to this post with "JEFF" and I will give you five questions to get to know you better. Repost and answer them in your journal. Pass it on, etc. ( Questions y'all ) Hopefully I will not take another month to get back to you guys. But I might! :D
Also. Here is another meme I ganked from ibbsc. Because I am cool like that. ( You are in this meme. Yes, you. )
And you know what, let's just throw in another meme for the heck of it.
THE OTP MEME
Yeah. |

I like Vampire Knight a whole lot. It takes it in turns to be really pretty and really adorable. Here is some of the stuff volume 6 contains:
- Canon straight romance (shocking) - Canon gay romance (Aido's thing for Kaname is adorable) - Subtexty lesbian romance (SOMEONE FIC YUKI/YORI NOW PLEASE PLEASE) - Actual more girls - Absurdly pretty hair - Way-too-adorable kids - Stupidly attractive administrators - Amnesia - Hot 19th century fashions* - Unusually deep feelings - A situation involving a heterochromic child with paralyzing kiss powers which may or may not all be an elaborate plot to get close to a girl
* It's no coincidence that all the hot presidents came from the 19th century.
Also I got Scribblenauts. It is a fun game if you have an imagination. And yes, the first thing I attempted to write was "Rickroll". (Spoiler: it works.) |

Okay, so, just learned something! Apparently the late great Tony Jay, voice of Frollo... was also the "We've got to have MONEY!" guy from the Tom and Jerry movie. I'm not sure I needed to know that. D:
Btw, if you ever need something to amuse yourself with for a bit, here is a shiny internet toy: Translation Party. Y'know, if you ever need an alternative to Babelfish or Lost in Translation. It translates your sentence from English to Japanese and back until it reaches equilibrium. Sadly, I couldn't get it to make me something sufficiently funny for an example. There was, however, this:
"The contrysides were nice and the plants were singing and the birds and the sun was almost down from the top of the sky." -> "Pavilion Sunday, Ito, birds and plants contrysides, he and I are singing in the rain from above, is heaven." Which I like. it almost sounds poetical. Anyway, go, be amused. |

I guess at some point I probably ought to greet my new friends from the Pokémon friending meme. Hey there, all four of you! I hope this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. :D Or something.
Apparently this meme is going around. Or was. Whatever, I'm always slow at these things anyway.
Leave me a comment and I will give you a letter. Then, write 10 things that you love starting with that letter. Post the list in your journal. Give out letters to your commenters in return.
I wasn't actually tagged, so I can't write a list myself. But uh. Y'all can feel free to give me a letter if you want. :B
Edit: deathlyh7212007 gave me the letter ( H. )
I have too many fandoms that start with H but GOSH DANG IT they are all amazing so I had to put them in. |

I had a dream where I was friends with Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and Michael Myers. And by "friends" I mean Freddy kept threatening me with a machete. And Michael was just kinda weird. Jason was nice enough, though. Quiet guy.
...I don't even watch horror movies. :\ |

Who do I have to petition to get Hourou Musuko an English release?
Seriously. I've just finished reading what's out so far, and it's amazing. Far and away the most realistic portrayal of transgenderism I've ever seen in manga. More people need to know about it.
(Although, even though there doesn't seem to be much in the way of an online fandom, there's surprisingly a crapton of good fanart over at DeviantART. Which is awesome.) |

So I've started reading this incredibly adorable manga. It's called Hourou Musuko, and it's a slice-of-life about two transgendered kids. I'm really into it, and I'm not usually this into mangas I read online. So. Yeah. *goes off to read it some more*
Nothing else to report except school started. Fmrrr. |

WHY DO I ALWAYS MISS BLEACH WHEN THE GOOD THINGS HAPPEN
THE ESPADA DUBBED
NEL DUBBED
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
On the bright side, the voices are perfect, especially Dondochakka's. Well, I'm still not in love with Grimmjow's, or the fact that his name is pronounced "Greemjow", and Nel's voice sounds a little too old for her, but whatever. At least we finally got to hear Szayel, whose voice I am going to marry, kthx. :B |

Everyone else was doing it.
Comment and I will comment back with a picture of the fictional character that most reminds me of you. Then post the same in your journal.
(Please don't be offended if I take a while to get back to you. I'm indecisive and have intermittent internet.) |

Apparently I have some internet on this vacation. I must use these powers for good!
...And by good I apparently mean whining about Shonen Jump. Eh, close enough.
So, SPHFWLKaiB finally showed up in Bleach. You can probably imagine my reaction. But. Butbutbut. They spelled his name as one word - Szayelaporro, like that. I know that's probably closer to the original, and since the speech bubbles are so narrow it shows up as hyphenated anyway, which is almost like two words. So I really have no reason to be upset about this. But idk, man, I just think it looks dumb. Some other spellings they have that bug me are "Nnoitora" (I know it's not that different, but still) and (are you ready for this one?) "Cirucci Sanderwicci". Sanderwicci? What is she, a BLT? Dude, "Thunderwitch" is possibly the coolest last name ever. You can't screw that up. D: You know what, I think I am just going to be one of those people I hate who ignores canon and spells people's names however she darn well pleases. Like heck I'm giving up "Thunderwitch".
While I'm here, I suppose I should say something briefly about the other mangas in Shonen Jump. Because I can.
Naruto: I really like how Naruto calls Yondaime "Pa". They could have gone with "Dad" so easily, but I like "Pa" better. It gives him character. And it's cute. Pain was a cute kid.
One Piece: Nami/Vivi is so canon. Mr. 2 Bon-chan is amazing.
Ultimo: O.A. must love this series. There is no way Jealousy is a boy.
Yu Yu Hakusho: Natsume is surprisingly attractive. I like seeing all those people from forever ago.
Tegami Bachi: I would probably like this series better if the people didn't have such stupid names. Two words: Jiggy Pepper. Niche makes it worth reading, though. She's great. Also I like the term "Letter Bee". Reminds me of Smellerbee. Or Linda Ellerbee.
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: I don't care.
Also I am going to see Wicked tonight yay. |

Speaking of Disney movies (we were doing that, right?): I know I'm a loser who only saw about four* of them during her childhood proper, and it's really sad that it took me until yesterday to watch The Hunchback of Notre Dame. But dang, that is a good movie. I think it just elbowed its way right in there under The Lion King as one of my favorite Disney movies. I mean, the music alone is excellent, but then you add in the characters and the plot and everything, and, wow. Suffice it to say that it's becoming my latest short-term obsession. And I need to acquire the soundtrack. OF COURSE I DON'T NEED TO TELL YOU GUYS THIS STUFF THOUGH BECAUSE YOU ALL HAD NORMAL CHILDHOODS. 8D (Although I have no idea how this movie got away with a G rating. IMO some of the stuff it deals with really isn't for kids. Which, y'know, is part of why I like it. But anyway.)
* Three if you don't count The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh as an actual movie.
Also, since I may not get a chance to post something later, I'm leaving again tomorrow for vacation. I'll be back next Tuesday. And then school starts. =_=
P.S. Apparently in Japanese, the @ sign is known as "naruto". This should not be so funny. |

Having begun reading T.H. White's The Once and Future King, I finally realize that Dan Dreiberg was not just being a Disney geek when he named his ship Archimedes. But that will still be my headcanon. Because Dan is totally enough of a dork to do that. (The book is quite good, by the way, and a classic. Just putting that out there.)
I really need to watch The Sword in the Stone sometime. Some kind soul's uploaded it to YouTube, so I don't suppose I have an excuse.
Whyyy are my posts so boring. |
