Kanon

Well, I just finished watching Kanon today, I have to say while it is a very good anime with a very great ending. Overall, it was very depressing! I suppose that's partly why I like it though, it's a change of pace from my other happy anime. Kimi ga Nozomu Eien was depressing to, but not exactly in the way that would have been pleasant. Kanon however, focuses on things like dreams and miracles, plus there is the supernatural factor in Kanon, which automatically makes it better. Haha, well why would I want to watch realistic anime if I already live in the real world? xD I actually grew to like practically all the characters. Ayu is just plain awesome, Mai is uber cool, Nayuki is funny, Makoto is pretty cool too, and Shiori is awesome. Haha, I repeated myself several times there. A lot of the supporting characters were pretty awesome as well, man I need a better vocabulary. Anywho, thanks again Kristina for recommending this anime to me! Haha, now you got me starting to watch Air, which I should be starting soon. I still need to watch Gunslinger Girl though.

Anywho, since I haven't been blogging as often as I should have been, I'll just talk about what happened yesterday I guess. Smash character news! Peach finally has her profile! She seems to play practically the same as she did in SSBM, which would be expected. Haha, probably her Final Smash will come from Super Princess Peach though, something about her has to. It's a good thing though, I'm pretty good with her! Haha, I can somewhat kick ass with her, it's quite fun. I actually never intended to play as her at first, but I started using her in the event battles, it was fun! So I started getting pretty good with her because I was playing the event battles with her. Haha, it sucks though. I think I'm better with her than Kirby now. Kirby is my favorite Nintendo character, has been since elementary school! I hope I can get better at Kirby when Brawl comes out. :o The character I'm best with right now would have to be Pikachu. Haha, but in Brawl, I have so many characters I want to main all at the same time! Pikachu, Kirby, Meta Knight, Ike, Pokemon Trainer, Pit, Peach, somewhat Zelda, Yoshi. Good heavens! Haha, I guess I like video game characters too much. Peach's design is pretty awesome though! Her dress hasn't looked that way before, and she looks much more detailed than any of her previous incarnations. Oh and she has her parasol from Super Paper Mario! She still uses Toad as a shield though, which I consider very sad. Poor Toad!

Anywho, Elizabeth came over to my house yesterday! We pretty much spent the day playing her Naruto game and unlocking all the characters. Turns out, we didn't even have to work to get them all! It was pretty fun being Tsunade and Hinata though. Haha, it sucks though, she could pwn me pretty easily with Itachi. He must be rigged or something! The game was dubbed though, so I pretty much cringed when I heard something out of character and got a bit annoyed by the voices. Haku shouting "Gang way!"? Whoever thought Haku would ever say that is insane! Sasuke saying "Chew on this!" made me cringe! Okay, I suppose that's enough ranting about dubbed voices. Haha, oh well. It was fun though, me and Elizabeth were pretty even on matches for once! Probably only because she used Itachi though. :3 Wow, I'm surprised. I acutally like the English boxart better than the Japanese one! Haham the English one is pretty cool, so... I'm posting that one up instead of the Japanse one like I usually do!

Laziness

First thing would be...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICE CHENG!!!
Yes... I drew this just now on Facebook. It's version 2 of Alice's Birthday Graffiti. xD

I've been incredibly lazy so I haven't really been feeling up to blogging as much lately! I blame all the time that Dennis spent here. He made me feel lazy about blogging because... Well, he was here! xD Anywho, I can also blame the two days that I went out with Dennis, Connie-sama, and Elizabeth.

Sunday was pretty much... Dennis and I going to pick up Connie-sama and Elizabeth from their houses, and then we went to Denny's to have Brunch. It was pretty fun being able to see Connie-sama and Elizabeth again after so long. The last time I had seen them was grad night. Anywho, then I brought them home! They had brought their laptops so Connie-sama, Dennis, and I played ToP some, and got Elizabeth the program for it. We also played Battle Stadium D.O.N. which was actually really fun! Elizabeth and Connie-sama really enjoyed themselves when we played. After that, we mostly just hung out and played other games until I had to take them home.

Monday was... the same routine as Sunday morning, get up and go pick them up. Except this time, we went to the mall! Cheesecake Factory was still closed when we got there, so we went to hang out at Borders for a bit before it opened. Dennis was constantly complaining about how expensive it was and such... It was fun either way. Afterwards we watched the Simpsons Movie, which was interesting to say the least. Haha. Then we wandered the mall a bit more, and I helped Connie-sama buy a Wii! She paid me back afterwards when I got her home though. After all that, we wandered the mall a bit more, and then we went to my house again! We played some Mario Kart, which was pretty fun. After that, me and Elizabeth played Soul Calibur III, which was fun. Of course I still kicked Elizabeth's butt with Sophitia. xD Then Elizabeth got absorbed in her Naruto game she just bought and Connie-sama and Dennis were doing something ToP related. So I just started to play GrimGrimoire and beat a chapter that I couldn't beat previously.

Anywho, for the past two days, I've pretty much just been watching Kanon. Which is an anime that Kristina Ho recommended to me. It's actually pretty good! I really like it so far, it made me shed tears. The characters are all pretty awesome, but the story is kind of sad as well. Why else would I shed tears. There are humorous moments as well as tear jerking ones. Ahh, I think I'm going to end up finishing this one before Gunslinger Girl. xD Anywho, many thanks to Kristina for recommending me this title! It's awesome so far, too bad you're not on often enough for me to tell you about how awesome it is, and what parts made me cry. Haha, man, I am seriously a bit too sensitive for my own good. It's horrible. Kanon is fun though, I like the characters quite a bit. They all have their personality traits and backgrounds that makes them different from each other. Connie-sama says it's a sad anime, but I like it anyway. Sad is good sometimes. Well, I guess that's all I can think of saying for now. *waves*
