10/2-10 “Anime spring 2010″

10/02/2010 at 10:56 (Anime) (, )

Hi.

While lurking around the net I found this. The new anime series for spring 2010! So I thought that I would share it.

unfortunately, I don’t think this is a strong series. No one seemed WOW! But I think it was a couple that I’m interested in. We’ll se how that goes.

Well that’s it for now. I’m in school right now so I have to go back to my work. I will soon be back with the fma 104 review.

6/2-10 “Eureka Seven”

06/02/2010 at 19:59 (Anime, manga) (, , , , , , , , )

Hi.

I watched Eureka Seven(7) last week and it was awesome! After just one episode I wanted to watch more.  Watching it made me realize  that I like mecha. Before I just thought that I was okej wit it but now the ones that I’ve watched is on my top 10 list! I’m going to check Macross (frontier?) out later.

Renton, Talho, Holland, Eureka

So, what it is about? Here is a short summary.

This guy, Renton lives in a little city with his grand father adn he thinks that lives is just plainly boring. The only fun he has is when he’s reffing(?). It’s a mix of skateboarding, surfing and flying.  He is able to fly with his board thank to the “trappars”. I did not really get what this trappars are but it’s thing, invisible thing…  Anyway, one day this LFO(what mechas are called here) crachlands in his grandfathers workshop. It turns out to be the first LFO, thetype zero, and it’s pilot is a young girl who Renton Falls in love with.

Then he finds out that she’s a member of “the Gekko state” (Gekko=Moonlight) a rebellious grope that Renton idolize.

Some guys suddenly attacks and the girl, Eureka, goes off to fight.  Renton is worried about her since the LFO still isn’t completely fixed.

His grandfather gives Renton a thing, that Rentons father found/made and tells him to give it to the girl.

Renton goes to the place where the fight is  and is finally able to fly like he wanted to (on his board) and is able ro deliver the thing to the type zero and that thing reacts with the LFO and they blow the enemy away.

Later Renton is allowed to go with the Gekko state cause Eureka wanted him to, the Nirvarch(type zero) works better with him.

And so a adventure starts for Renton.

But it’s not as Renton imagine Gekko state to be.  They doesn’t have much money and the Leader and his idol, Holland, isn’t so sympathetic and walk around in his underwear.  Renton start to wonder what he is even doing there. But then it gets better.

Yeah, this is the first two episodes I guess. Don’t sound to exiting? Well it is.

It had several of my favorite genre, Drama, action, romance and apparently, mecha.

But is one thing I bother me a lot. It seemed like they started up to many thing that they did not finish (the makers of the series), the thing with Renton sister and father was done half good and the thing with some being in the military before. The military thing with Talho for example. It was not given enough time and just got confusing… Or it might have been me not paying enough attention…

Yesterday I read the manga. And I kinda liked it better then the anime. In some way.

It was shorter, only 23 chapter so it did not have as much in it. No Beams and Renton didn’t have as much trouble when he first joined Gekko state.It was no “filler” either every chapter had something to do with the plot. I think. . . Then I don’t remember much more special differences. But it is like a whole different story, but with the same character and the same story line.

It was not much of a character development with other then Eureka and Renton. You don’t actually get to see them so much. And Talho and Hollands relation don’t get much attention.

I liked this ending more actually. I don’t know why, it much more sad. I don’t really what to spoil if you haven’t read it but the thing with Eureka seemed better in some way. I kinda like that sort of ending. Everyone’s happy but somethings missing. You know. . .

And I don’t get why Anemome had a wheelchair, two years later. Didn’t she walk before?

I actually prefer manga Eureka and Renton. Eureka did not seem as cold and more normal and Renton seemed more mature. He also looked and acted older. His japanese voice made him sound young and naive. (The same voice as Hajime from Natsu no arashi.) I also like Domenic and Anemone better, thier past was better then the anime one. If they even had one in the anime.  Can’t remember. I might like that most charters better in the manga! Gah! I don’t know! It was so long since I watched it. One week. . . *Cough*

But I like the development in the anime so I can’t say I prefer one over the other. They where both good in there own way. Though I must say that the manga had a more sad ending but in the whole the anime was sadder.

Well, Now I’m off. We’ll see when I write again. Probely in a few days I’m on a roll. ;)

4/2-10 “Tengen Toppa Gurann Lagann

04/02/2010 at 22:27 (Anime) (, , , )

Hi

I watched Tengen Toppa Gurran Lagann last month, the reason that I saw it was due to the fact that I read on various pages that in it there was the most badass person in the history of anime.

And I watched teh first episode and I loved it.

The next day I saw saw some more and I was amazed that Kamina really was GAR.  Really GAR. He was my favorite from the start.

But then I came to episode 8. *sigh* Episode 8.

I had heard spoiler about it but I had ever thought that it would happened so early! I thought that it would be, at least, at episode 20.

I did not watch anymore. I do know that Simon gets more badass but it’s still not the same.

I did watch some bits here and there. For example, ep 26 but far from the whole. I cried when “libra me from hell” was played. It might have been played several times but I only heard it once. :’( So damn sad!

Then. Now a month later I found something. Something brilliant.

THIS SHIT JUST GOT REAL

Just as the title says. Shit just got real.

It’s a fan made comic(?). It’s outplayed in a alternative universe where Kamina and Simon is cops. And yes, Kamina is very badass.  And simons facial exprecions is priceless!

Just go read it.

psst, simon is cross dressing, wouldn’t want to miss that right?

Unfortunately Kittan isn’t there jet but I’m pretty sure that he will show up in the next page.  Just imagine how extremely manly and awesome it will become if Kittan’s there to. :)   A double does of GAR.

Well I’ve got to go now. Will update soon.

24/1-10 “Durarara!”

24/01/2010 at 22:41 (Anime, Uncategorized) (, , )

Hi.

And in the end, I did not manage to finish with my school work. *sigh* Who can’t I just do it?

But I must fix it tomorrow and then I’ll do a big update sometimes later that week.

Just wanted to say that I have been watching Durarara! and it’s awesome. It’s not much of a story jet but the animation is top class and the characters is lovable. :)

And in episode 3 Shizou showed up for real, and now has the fan name “Gartender” cause he is dressed like a bartender and is manly. So yeah.

And what did he do? Well, first he throw a trashcan at one person, Izaya and later throw someone so hard/fast/something so that the guys clothes came of! o_o

And then he proceeds to throw a soda machine at Izaya but it’s stopped in mid air by this big, dark Russian speaking guy who works at a sushi restaurant. And did I mention that the big, dark Russian speaking guy who works at a sushi restaurant jumped down x numbers of floors just to stop it?

o_o

14/12-09 “Fullmetal Alchemist ch 101 review 3″

14/12/2009 at 22:48 (fullmetal alchemist, manga) (, , , )

Hi.

I was very busy yesterday so I didn’t have any time for the review, or anime. :(

I have begun to bee hooked up om “Cruel angels thesis” the opening for EVA.

I’ts just too awesome.

Anyway

After Roy says that he wont to the transmutation Mr Goldtooh asked if he is abandoning Riza, and says that that was cruel of him. Roy responds by saying that he’s not the one to talk, throwing away the lifes of the “fuhrer candidates”.

Mr Goldtooth responds to that by saying that they would be grateful to him, he took them in when their parents abandoned then, gave them a first class education and gave then a purpose in life.

Then Roy says “that why the rug is being pulled under your feet’s”.

And Mr Goldtooth is being pulled upward.

Nows the question. When Riza earlier in the chapter looked upwards, was that to show Roy that help was on the way? Or did Roy see that just then? Or was it a wild guess?

Will we ever know?

Now I have to stop, damn it! I was trying to get another picture here but it did not want to work. >:(

So I will continue tomorrow and hopefully finish 101. Sorry if anyone gets annoyed at me. :(   But I have two test on wendesday and a easey that have to be done by tomorrow so we will see how long it will be.

By,bye!

12/12-09 “Fullmetal Alchemist chapter 101 part 2″

13/12/2009 at 02:21 (fullmetal alchemist, manga) (, , , , , , , )

Hi!

Now I’m back and will just continue with my 101 review! Yay!

Pang boom!

When the turn has come to Roy and the rest Riza is seen laying on the ground, floor or whatever. She is bleeding but she is not dead.  Roy is calling for her(?), yelling her name. Unfortunate for us Royai fans, he is yelling Lie tenant instead of Riza. :(

Riza, I can’t really explain how she looks. I guess that I can use one of my favorite words, shocked. But I also think that is is some fright mixed in. And a little confusuion.

“What the hell happened? Did he just slice my neck/throat?” Or something like that might go trough her mind. Or maybe… Damn it I forgot! I hate when that happens…

Put as a band aid on the wound Roy is totally pissed! Looking even more, if possibly, mad then when he was fighting Envy.

And all the fangirls to is squee because of the awesomeness. Thinking that he  totally (note to self, find new word…) cares for her more then a friend.

Like that wasn’t proved in earlier chapter. :)

While Roy is just yelling Riza gets dragged to a transmutation circle and Mr Gold-teeth tells Roy to do the transmutation, just like that. Right upside down, like we say in Sweden.

Gold-teeth asked who he wants to transmute.

Family, he is adopted so his parents is possibly very dead.

Friend, Maes of course who else?

Lover. 8| Does Roy has a dead lover or is Gold teeth just coming with suggestion without grounds? Yes, that must be it…

And when he mentions that Riza migth die Roy just looks to furious.

Am I the only one who liked that look on his face? Not that I want him to look like that. Oh damn,  Now it sounds liek he is a real person. Well, you get the point.

Then Riza says that she wont die, cause Roy has ordered her not to. She even manges to give Gold-teeth a strong look. Okej, that did not come out right. . .

I really hope that the new anime will go all the way. But, that means that the manga must end soon. :( But I really would love to see this scene in anime version. I just hope that they don’t mess it up. >:(

Goldteeth tells Riza(?) that with a immortal body she wont have to suffer.

“Your precious woman”  Huh. That just screams Royai! Can’t it just hurry up and  become official!

Now is the question what Goldteeth woud do? Make Riza to a homunculus? Aren’t they dead or in bodies already? Was he going to heal her? Then why?

Then he states that Riza has become quiet, and wonders if she died. The next panel shows Roy with his usual furious face, and you can tell that he’s feeling pretty useless.

But Riza isn’t dead, she responds with that no transmutation is necessary.

Roy is torn, he knows that transmutation is wrong and that it might, probably, wont even help her. But he can’t stand just watching the woman he loves die.

Riza sees Roy’s hesitation and looks him in the eyes. Telling him not to do it, not with words, with her eyes. Her expression.

But even though she “tells” him that transmutation is not a option and that he should not, under any circumstances, do it he  still torn.

You can really see the pain in his face.

Arakawa is to damn good!

I just have to start with Roy here. I really can’t explain his expression. It’s almost like it was when she first became hurt. Surprise, a feeling that he can’t do anything.

Riza expression is a little easier. I think that it’s like that she would never forgive him if he did it. Even thought it was for her sake.

And I guess that made Roy realize something.

Here he is especially torn.  He don’t want to watch her die! But he can’t do the transmutation.  It’s wrong, he knows it and so does she.  But he still wants to save her.  Poor Roy, everyone gets hurt and some dies.

But this dilemmas is something that makes FMA so damn great. Right? :)

Here he has a determinate expressed, but you can hint sadness in his eyes.

But he has decided not to do the transmutation. When if it’s on the cost of Rizas life. It would might not even be saved anyway.

Heh, shocked guy is shocked.

Well, wound you expect? He had treated Roy’s    weakest point, Riza. And he thought that that he would do anything to save her. Witch he kinda did. Riza wound not be happy if Roy died while saving her.

And by opening the gate he would not heal someone, just bring someone else there. Or would Gold-teeth help her if Roy transmuted? Then why did he drag her to the circle?

Well, that’s it for now, it’s late and I got load left. Don’t know when I will have time, it’s sunday! But I will finish my review even thought it means that I have to skip watching anime!

And I might, might have time to, at least, start on the 102 review. Yay!

By,bye!

10/12-09 Fullmetal Alchemist 202 hype and 201 review 1.

10/12/2009 at 22:36 (fullmetal alchemist, manga) (, , , , )

Oh my.

Fullmetal Alchemist chapter 103 came out today.

Oh shit, was my reaction for most of it. It was pretty damn awesome, Arakawa has done it again.

Just thinking about it makes me hyper.

But I can’t download it yet, so I decided to just start on my goddamn 102 review!

It started of with a color page featuring Bradley getting out of the water, sewer water.. That probably stings in his wounds. And then he has this really pissed look.  If you did not know better you might think that he thought “when I find the bastard who pushed me into the water I’m going to kick his sorry as!”

Then it’s switched to the Armstrong’s and curtis. Sieg  is confued and is calling for Izumi.

Then They finds out that Buccaner (not Naccania) has died fighting Wrath/Bradley. Olivia is shocked, and when one weird dude (hostage?) says that it’s impossible that Bradley died she brutally punches him.

She is told that the main gate is still closed and that he passed away with a smile. Then it’s quiet for a second or two and she says what’s above here.

She also tells Sieg that they will look out for his wife.

BTW, at first I did not get that Sieg ans Izumi was married. I don’t remember what I thought that they where but not Husband

Well, that was short now but I will be back with more tomorrow, I promise. Yeah!

Polls for now.

Hi.

Yeah, I just have not come around doing my 102 review. Even thought it was the one I looked forward to so much! Anyway. I have en poll here and I will try putting the review up tomorrow, if I have time. I will try to make time!

So, In 203 Roy had to pay the price and that price was his sight, so my question is…

That’s Mrs Bradley, the fuhrers wife. The he choose himself.  It’s also Selims “mother” who he is fond of.

So my question is, Is she going to be their weak point?
