THE [YGO] MOVIE.

February. 26. 2011

[Rants by: hello?]

‘Twas GOOOOD!!! Well, at least better than I thought :D I did have some expectations, but the fact that the three main protagonists were in the same scene interacting with each other was already good enough for me XD the YGO series is normally a very emotional and serious one, but this movie was great for something that’s not even an hour long XD

I feel so lucky to live near a theatre that was able to show both Gantz and YGO *MAJOR SNIFFLES*

But yeah, it’s not something I’d buy on like DVD though. I’d “download it illegally like everybody else” [Kaiba]. But you know what I would pay for, it the Hetalia movie :D I downloaded it with the crappiest subs I’ve ever seen (hell, even I could translate better than that) but watched it like three times whilst trying to ignore the subs :D the only reason I’d buy it is cause when it does come out on DVD, it’ll be in sub AND dub :D

/obsession

[Rants by: hello?]

Even if you don’t watch/read Hetalia, this is definitely something worth looking at. I’ve seen so many parodies of it and so many drawings of this that it caused me to actually look for and read the plot. The only sentence I really remember was “they get trapped in a house and many tragedies happen”. It sounded like some lame fanwork, but I decided to watch it on youtube anyway. Trust me. It’s a lot better than it sounds. So here’s “Ep 1 Pt 1″ to get you losers started :P

I’m gonna say a few spoilers now. I’ll just say that after you watch a good amount of it, it’s gonna remind Higurashi fans of…well….Higurashi xD it certainly did for me. But no, HetaOni is actually a parody in itself of a game called Aooni which I know nothing about and didn’t know it existed haha but this is seriously some mindrape if you continue to watch it. I haven’t really bawled in a while, but this….AAHHHHHHHHH XD I kind of wish this was an official side story or at least a movie. The studio can do that, right? It’d be the most epic thing ever so long as they stick to the script o.o like….THIS!!!!

There’s also another RPG parody fan thingy and it’s called RomaHeta, but it’s just funny as opposed to the tragic HetaOni. Funny is good, but I like psychological tragedy. I’m sorry, I’m such a horrible person XD it’s just that this is the first time Italy was so damn serious and creepy x.x

Well, in other news, I took this picture cause …you know….I HAVE AN UNHEALTHY OBSESSION WITH FLAGS. And someone pointed out that Canada’s flag was missing. As a Hetalia fan, I started cracking up on the floor. In the show, no one really notices Canada and he’s so invisible that in HetaOni, the monster doesn’t even see him and he’s unharmed XD that is HILARIOUS~~ so yeah I was just like “wow, Canada really does get forgotten” XDD I mean there are more flags in another area and even there, Canada is nowhere to be found. Hell, you can see HONG KONG’S FLAG and HK isn’t even a real country. The americans were able to think of HK but not Canada, its neighbor. That is SAD XD

So yeah, that’s it XD don’t worry, China’s flag is in another section hahaha

But yeah, WATCH HETAONI LEST THE MONSTERS COME AFTER YOU!!!

[Rants by: hello?]

This Valentine’s let’s wear a shirt that says “tonight, we feast on broken hearts” XDDD

Sadly, it isn’t actually a shirt. It’s a Valentine’s message bg from Gaia. But still, I really wish it was XD not like I can print it and put it on my own shirt, they’d probably come after me with pitchforks shouting and reciting copyright shit.

But yeah, onto the second topic. Racism is hilarious. But not the racism we all know and love, I’m talking about THIS. I swear, it’s the only anime I know where when I read the character bios, I’M LEARNING ACTUAL STUFF. their profiles feel like textbooks and history is all of a sudden so fun and easy. THIS is how things should be taught xD ANIME IS THE KEY!! And quite honestly, current favorite character is Sweden, simply because he’s the only character who has a confirmed sexual orientation xDDDD yeah, I know it’s weird, but the author has confirmed that he’s officially gay, especially for Finland ;D oh man I can’t wait for the movie to finally come out to DVD here T^T I’ve been trying to keep myself from reading the plot on wikia >O

AAHHHH!! One of my favorite pictures :D I love his art, everything he does is painted from photoshop, which inspired me to start painting XD although I’m still painting with a mouse so it’s tedious and tiring >.< I'm starting to wonder why I'm not pursuing art as a career. Oh yeah, that's right. NO PORFOLIO. Oh wells xD

============================

I’m too lazy to actually finish this post so it shall be done laters. I’m too busy painting and squealing over Sweden-san. DA SVEDANEYA.

AAAHHH EPIC FANGIRL SQUEAL!!! I love the manga, I really liked the anime and I got to see the world premiere last night AHH~!!! I was so dead at work today but it was totally worth it~!!

[SPOILERSSSS if you don't want anything to do with knowing what happens before you see it yourself, pretend I never existed and go somewhere elseee XD]

I honestly saw it just because Kenichi was in it hahaha I loved him in the Death Note movie and watned to see how different he was here. SO DIFFERENT MENGG I didn’t know he was taller than Nino O.o I thought he was generally short, but he was probably trying to look short in Death Note =_= EITHER WAY! He did a mad good job. And Nino did a good job in acting like a slight perv too XD although in the manga Kei was a SERIOUS hentaiman xD

But also, I wanted to see how Nishi was gonna be portrayed since he was my all-time favorite Gantz character…..even though he dies in the second mission and doesn’t come back until a shitload of volumes later. Well, he was played by Kanata Hongo he gave off the arrogance quite well, but I didn’t blame the lack of character depth on him since he didn’t write the script XD During the Tanaka alien mission, you learn a lot about Nishi in both UGHness and AWWness, if you got that :D I don’t really know how else to put it. But right before the mission, you’re just like “he’s an ASS” and then after the mission you go “NOOOOOOOOOOO DON’T GOOO” xDD there was none of that in the movie, just….arrogance XDDD but I did like how his presence felt a lot lighter in the movie haha like in the anime and manga, you felt pretty disturbed and even disgusted sometimes even when he was just standing there. Level of coolness was retained in the movie :D

The suits were so awesomely made!! Apparently it costs about $5k to make each suit O.o I don’t blame them, that shit was detailed and LIGHTS UP~~~ it looks mad awesome when the suits go all electric blue~ the Gantz ball was also awesome, too :D and I like how the man inside the ball was more human than in the anime….probably cause the skin color in the anime was so dull and pale. But in the movie, mystery-gantz-man was pretty dark toned. And then weapons AAHHH they made them the best they could ^^; I loved the detail though. And the transportation scenes were AWESOMENESS.

Now for how the story was rewritten, the general storyline was the same…..of course, if they changed even the general plot, they’d have their heads blown up by gantz guns. But yeah, the arcs were in order and played out generally the same way. I didn’t have a problem with it cause there was time restraint and even with all the abridging, it was still 2.5hrs long. Small details changed were:

First mission Kei never puts the suit on, he only realizes around the end of the mission that you actually need it. Also, when Nishi traps the alien, he asks Kato to shoot it, not Kei. And, the rule about being automatically killed outside the given diameter limit wasn’t in there.
Second mission Tanaka alien was the only one that needed to be beat instead of that weird bird thing being the actual target. Oh, and there was no dog ….or Sadako, I think. And this alien wasn’t bird-obsessed, of course. And in case you haven’t noticed by now, it’s not called Suzuki, it’s Tanaka here. Like there’s really a difference xD that was the original name in the manga anyways >_> and Tanaka’s sonic power was changed to a physical blast, not a screech that makes your ears and eyes bleed. So Nishi basically died from the impact, not from the sound. Speaking of Nishi, he didn’t lecture the grandma or call for his mom at the end.
Third mission There are two statues, but the first is easily destroyed by a single shot before it even comes to life. It didn’t take long for Kei to kill the second statue since he did it quick but still with the same awesomeness as the anime. There was a second part to this mission, but it didn’t involve the sheer number of members and targets. There weren’t that many players and there was only that thousand-arm buddha and that really random tiny statue. The way Kishimoto dies is a little different…..less gore. And she dies before she gets to kiss Kato >:] oh yeah, and Kei gets injured fromt he very beginning of the second part by the buddha’s swords and isn’t fatally wounded. He actually gets back up after everyone else is near death and beats the aliens himself. Also, Kato pulls and awesome sword from his suit. This fills in for the sword he was supposed to have taken from the alien :D it was cooler this way.

ONE MORE THING! In general, there was a shorter time limit for each mission.

So yeah, that’s it for now :D if this never comes out on dvd, I am so buying it x]

[Rants by: hello?]

I can’t believe I had the audacity to not make a new year’s post on time. It’s only the second day, so I won’t be killed, na?

Anyways, here is a simple list of updates:

Work: Starting to “dislike”.
School: It’s pretty much a 404 right now.
Anime: Obsessed with Hetalia dub and Bleach’s op13: HERE YA GO …and also Ga Rei Zero. It’s sad. SO WATCH IT.
Music: That song from op13 and also Super Scription of Data [Eiko Shimamiya] and Paradise Lost [Chihara Minori]. Look them up ;] oh and Hitomi no Tsubasa [access]
Social: Not much to say there since I’m mad tired these days from WORK.
Art: Working on a vector but like every other day XD here’s the progress so far:

It’s something I drew….cause….I design characters now….I don’t know when that became my job but yeah XD and I dressed up as this for Halloween :D I like this character only cause of the way he/she fights XD yeah, unknown gender. Actually, you know what, I’ll show you guys the bios for all these characters I’ve been made to work on, but unfortunately, pictures can’t be given yet since I’m STILL not done sketching them. SKETCHING. For the bios, here’s the link: CHARACTERS

Family: Rat’s in the house. We’re asian. Not good. Enough said XD
Other: KNITTING! It’s knitting season and this is what I’m currently working on:

It’s a windsor/black cowl :DD I rarely make striped things so I might as well, since I heart stripes. HEART. And I haven’t made a really warm and thick cowl….much xD so yay.

So yeah…..HAPPY NEW YEAR’S. I wanted to make a special holiday picture, but no time T^T well no in between all of life’s crap.

[Rants by: hello?]

The new YGOTAS video. I know. I’m sorry. But it seems that I’m now more obsessed with this than the actual YGO series XD IT’S FUNNYYYY well I think it’s funny, I don’t know about everyone else out there…..>_> but they have a large fanbase, so I can only assume ….that mad people love it xD

I usually instantly love any dialogue involving Marik and Bakura. For some reason, they always turn out to be hilarious. Which is why I kind of miss Bakura and I’m sad that he won’t be appearing again until the last season =_= if LK is even willing to go THAT far T^T but here’s the dialogue xDD

Marik: Let us join forces, Bakura! And together we will use our combined strength to tear Yugi Moto a new EFF hole!
Bakura: What the bloody hell is a *beep* hole?
Marik: What?
Bakura: That thing you just said, what is it?
Marik: A EFF hole?
Bakura: Yes. That.
Marik: Well it’s obvious, isn’t it?
Bakura: Enlighten me.
Marik: Well, it’s the…..hole that you EFF…
Bakura: Soooo you mean a vagina.
Marik: Of course! What else would I EFF?
Bakura: I don’t know. Bottoms?
Marik: Agh, for the last friggin time, I do not partake in that sort of nonsense! I only EFF vaginas! Because I’m totally straight! Ooooo, look at me and my straightness!
Bakura: Ok, so, what you’re saying is….we’re going to tear Yugi Moto a new vagina.
Marik: Uh…yes…tha-that is totally what I meant…
Bakura: I wan’t aware that he had an old vagina.
Marik: Oh, shut ya face, Bakura!
Bakura: Kiss my ass, Marik!
Marik: But there’s poop down there!

So there you have it…..I admit, it’s one of the weirder dialogues they’ve had and this was part of the deleted scenes thing hahaha I thank LK for putting up such deleted scenes even when he didn’t use them for the official episodes :D the new episode is pretty awesome by the way, although a lot of people are like egh at how there was no real reference to the Ace Attorney game. I didn’t really mind, it was still good :D

There was another deleted scene shown right after that one that also involved Bakura and is the only reason why I’m putting it up XDDD

Grandpa: Bakura! Bakura! Wake up!
Bakura: What? What is it? What could possibly be so bloody important that you had to violently shake me while I’m lying sick in a hospital bed??
Grandpa: I just had my first successful bowel movement in two years! Hooray! *falling* Ah! Whoa, nelly!
Bakura: Congratulations. Now you’ve had your second.

I honestly didn’t know what that was supposed to imply, I guess it’s open to interpretation but it involved Bakura so I can only guess that–

I’ve also been obsessed lately with singers’ live performances, specifically Yuki Kajiura’s live concert back from 2008. The singers that she recruited are all SO awesome. Their voices blend so beautifully and the harmonies are ahhhhh beautiful!!! And her compositions X.X she’s such a genius~ although you can see an obvious trend and style in all of her songs. It’s ok cause that trend is AWESOME~~ I didn’t know that she herself sang in some of those songs o.o I didn’t know YUUKA was really Yuki AHHHH so stupid XD there are some songs that I only like when I hear them live and not in their recorded versions, so my list of favorite songs sung live are:

*a song of storm and fire
*Parallel Hearts
*silly-go-round
*liminality
*salva nos

[These are just links to the youtube videos of the performances. I'll be uploading the full concert albums soon, so hold onto your seats for that :DDD ]

a song of storm and fire is an all-time favorite~~~ I will love that song forever~!! And that random mixture of Latin and Japanese they sing is apparently now called Kajiurian by fans XDDD well, whatever goes :P speaking of that song, there are still a lot of people who are confused about the ending of TRC. I’ll be explaining that in the next post ^^ until then, MATA DA ZE!

=================================================================

“Don’t worry! With the help of this ax, we’ll be sure to find half-naked girls in no time!”
“Why would an ax help?”
“Haven’t you seen the commercials? Girls love the smell of ax!”
“That’s a body spray, you dork!”
“No, it was definitely a weapon.”

[Rants by: hello?]

I find it funny how I’ve been talking about nothing but anime *coughygocough* and I don’t intend on stopping~!!! But this time, it’s different and it’s not gonna be just about anime haha (alleviated, are we?)

Let’s kick this off with CCS :D this is a CLASSIC~!! You just can’t hate this anime if you’ve watched it way back when. Sure, I grew up with the dub, but they cut it off before the whole series could end…..cause apparently the second season was not appropriate enough for children due to the fact that its main focus was Sakura and Syaoran’s relationship development. Damn you. A few years after that though, I turned to the Japanese version in order to kickstart my Japanese and I fell in love with it all over again~ and now I am proud to be in the possession of the Sakura Cards:

Speaking of which, I tend to compare the Syaoran from CCS to the Syaoran from TRC. Just cause it’s fun XD I personally like the design of CCS better, just cause he looks stubborn and serious. And when guys look stubborn and serious, it’s just that much cuter when they do like someone ;D it would’ve been so awesome if the whole animation style of TRC was the same as CCS T__T the manga animation style makes him look all cool (cause CLAMP does WONDERS with that stuff) but….AAHHHH …ok this:

If they wanted to make him look more mature or something, that’s already been done, even in the old CCS style >.< goddangit why'd they have to change....

When I got to the end of TRC, I started thinking that even CCS was somehow tied into this TRC/XXX story but nah XD that's like saying even Chobits was linked to it, but of course it's not. It just seemed that way since when the clones were reborn, I thought Sakura was in her middle school uniform or something and I swear I thought I saw some of her old friends from CCS so I was like "wait are the clones the same characters from CCS" XD nah, it's not that complicated. If you have the time and you like twists, go for TRC~!!!

================================================

I just wanna throw something quick out there. I gave YGO 5Ds a chance……AND I LIKE IT. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad thing. But it’s definitely better than GX. I can say that each protagonist from all three series are pretty different and that’s good, but Yusei is just really awesome. But enough about Yusei, I’m more focused on JACK XD

He has the Kaiba role of being a rich and stuck up rival, but the stuck up part doesn’t stay for long since his character develops pretty quickly. He’s still a generally serious person who cares a lot about strength (hence why his deck is a strength deck). His main weakness is Carly, the boys, and cup ramen. I find it funny how he sometimes prioritizes Carly over the boys xD

One thing I find interesting about him though is that his main monster, the Red Dragon Archfiend has…well, a red color scheme xD and Yusei, the main character, has a blue themed monster, the Stardust Dragon. You’d think that since Jack wear’s blue+white, he’d have a generally blue dragon but noooo >___> seriously though, JACK x CARLY FOREVER~ xP I ship them all the way. Carly’s so weirdly adorable, I love her :D she’s even more awesome when she was all evil as a Dark Signer :D

This is the moment where Jack’s all like “NO CARLY, I’M GONNA SAVE YOU!!”

I’m surprised 4Kids loosened up for this series and let all the lovey dovey stuff pass through O.o they even let all the physical violence show. That’s some improvement XD well the kids who enjoyed the original YGO are old enough (OBVIOUSLY) to watch that now anyways >_____>

Oh and here’s the cosplay version of that scene……well technically, this is the scene where he talks to her before the hug but whatever, IT’S STILL BEAUTIFUL!

Cosplay done by the awesome Ex-Shadow and this girlfriend malindachan. They always cosplay together and the boyfriend is the textile genius. That’s right. He makes all these clothes. Check out his and his gf’s deviantart accounts to see the beauty. I actually cried while going through his pictures, that’s how beautiful it was. I’m trying to teach myself how to make awesome clothes like this but that dream seems a “bit” far out…..I MUST TRY THOUGH!!! I can’t half-ass anything anymore!! AAAHHHH I hate myself >O<

Oh and just for fun, here's Jack all pimped out during some weird party:

Now that that’s settled, onto the next matter on the non-existent agenda. PHONES. Cause I just had like a reload of tech new today and now I’m all high and hyped from it XDDD

The new MyTouch for T-Mobile. That’s without the 3G in the name. Yeap. It basically looks like the last line of MyTouch with no QWERTY keyboard and….wait, what’s so different about this one XD oh yeah, it’s capable of that new HSPA connection. It’s apparently as fast as 4G….apparently.

A similar phone has been release by T-Mobile called the G2. This one does have a QWERTY keyboard and is available at Wirefly for $100 with a new contract. I am so totally not advertising in any way.

The HTC Desire HD is just a slightly better version of the Evo 4G and probably won’t be coming to the US for that very reason. It should be available online unlocked, though.

Now for Virgin Mobile, which we all know is a low-end carrier, is being given the Samsung Intercept. Oh yeah, and all these phones are running Android. Just wanted to point that out XD for once, Samsung hasn’t tainted the Android UI with their TouchWiz. This phone has an optical trackpad. Yeah. And thank god the microSD card slot is on the outside. Camera is only 3.2mp though, but….has flash. No QWERTY, I’m afraid.

For T-Mobile again is the LG Optimus T. It’s also running Android and it’s entry-level….but still a smartphone. This also has only a 3.2mp camera =__= but it has wifi, if you like that. I know I do. I don’t know how LG’s doing on their touchscreen smartphone game, but it sure as hell wasn’t great back then. It’s running Android though, so any problems you’ve faced with LG devices before shouldn’t be as bad anymore. Let’s all hope to God that it’s not.

Coming to Verizon is the Motorola Droid Pro. It’s surprisingly a global phone = compatible with CDMA and GSM networks. It has a kind of candybar formfactor with that QWERTY keyboard and a small touchscreen above it. Also running Android. It’s an Androidfest. BUT it has a 5.0mp camera with dual LED flash :D

Sprint’s present this year is the Samsung Transform. QWERTY keyboard + Android. That’s all you need to know XD doesn’t look that stunningly different in any way. NEXT!

The Casio G’zOne Ravine for Verizon – Casio’s new military-specified phone. Meaning that’s it’s shock resistant, waterproof and all that jazz. You can go batshit insane one day, get stressed out and just fling this mofo at your wall all day and it’ll still be working. I should probably get one.

And finally, even Satan gets a little gift this time – it’s the Motorola Flipout for AT&T. And yes, I refer to AT&T as Satan. But nevermind that, let’s talk about the phone. Of course it’s running Android. Even Windows Mobile phones are dying out. Even the Blackberry is pretty outdated. If the Torch is the best thing they got, well…..they better start coming up with something better XD the Flipout is a brother to the Flipside….only cause of the names. I recall there being a phone similar to this one but I forgot what it was called. When closed, this basically looks like a little square and the screen is touchscreen, of course. Then you flip the screen and “voila” a tinyass QWERTY keyboard. Not good if you have big hands though, that shit is all scrunched and there is not much space for the keys. The Flipside on the other hand is your standard QWERTY keyboard that slides out from the side. Both running MotoBlur.

Of course, I got all this from CTIA Fall 2010. Man, it’s that time already XD I feel too lazy to get anymore pictures (LIES, it’s cause it’s not anime related, YOU SUCK!).

Now this is some infuriating news time. Get ready for some bitchyass ranting. If you wanna skip, go right ahead, you’ll se a little /rant thingy XD

GLENN BECK, FUCK YOUUU. How dare you say that the firefighters were right to just stand there and watch a family’s house burn down?? They lost all their belongings, their memories, their pets, EVERYTHING! The reason why? Just cause they didn’t pay a goddamn $75. Hell, that family was willing to pay more than that on the spot and they STILL didn’t put the damn fire out!! It was only until the neighbor’s house caught fire that they decided to do something, but they still didn’t put out the fire of the initial family’s home. Nope. FOR A FUCKIN $75. This is what America has become. It’s disgusting, it’s despicable and these people claim to be Christians. You know what I, a Catholic, would do? If I was a firefighter there, I would’ve told all my mates to put out the goddamn fire before I threw them in there. If I was the neighbor whose house also caught fire, I’d tell the firemen to put their fire out also. Seriously, they literally just STOOD there, watching everything burn to a crisp. Now there’s no home, no pets, no nothing. WTF MAN? IS THAT WAS REPRESENTS AMERICA? GLENN BECK, YOU CAN BURN ALONG WITH THAT POOR FAMILY’S MEMORIES AND BELONGINGS, RIGHT IN HELL.

/rant

Sorry for that XDDD one more bit of pointless news. I now have a new nickname. Nicknames just come flying at me like dust X.X it’s Ciel. Too bad that when I hear Ciel, I think of Kuroshitsuji Ciel XD this one came from the letters “CL” from “crimson lotus” and when you say “C L” fast, it sounds like Ciel XD it’s weird how half my nicknames have to do with the wind or sky, that element xD like one of my first Japanese nicknames used to be Shiryuu Kazemi and the “kaze” means wind. Later on, there was SYK for “shiryuu yamiko kazemi” which later turned into SKY xDDD OMGGG and cause of that people started calling me Sora (whoever knew Jap at the time). And then there was a recent Italian nickname, “Luce DiCielo” =__= WTFFFF XD so yeah…..I’ve also been called Tsuna cause my birthday date is the 27th. And when I hear Tsuna, I think Hitman Reborn. And what element is Tsuna? That’s right. The SKY. THE FREAKIN SKY xD

====================================================

WATCH THIS.

[Rants by: 4 people]

We all know that a lot of dubbed anime doesn’t come close to the original, but whether it’s good or not is a matter of personal taste. The two main anime that come to mind are YGO and Pokemon, simply because I grew up with them and then realized how stupidly they were altered XD Pokemon actually wasn’t that bad. The voices were pretty close to the original (the main characters, anyways) and there’s really no part of the story to drastically change since it’s so simple. The only thing I had a problem with was whenever the characters ate riceballs, they either called it “jelly-filled donuts” or just flat out edited it to turn them into burgers/sandwiches:

YGO was insane, though X.X other than the fact that they edited out any guns (and therefore caused some henchmen to look like they were awkwardly pointing), they changed the story AND the characters themselves, AHHHH >O<

A good example would be KAIBA….and this is basically his overall outlook/personality:

Jap Kaiba – “I don’t believe in this fate or destiny stuff. I create my own future with my own hands, I go up the ladder of life with my own strength…..however, I can’t let the future of others be ruined just because of me, or break a promise.”

Dub Kaiba – “Screw those occult-loving dweebs. No matter what they say, each one of us are alone in this world and we all work on our own. Get anywhere near my brother or my company and you’re SCREWED.”

Yeah, he was still skeptical in the Japanese version, but at least he was a bit more considerate and he grew nicer as the arcs passed. There was actual character development. GASP. In the dub, however, he remained a skeptical bastard until the end of the Memory World arc when he said “Maybe there is some truth to this junk” but no one really heard him and he immediately denies ever saying it. Nice going.

[For a more in-depth thing about Kaiba (cause I got no life+lots of time like that), HERE it is.]

Yami’s personality was also REALLY different…..so different that it kind of makes me sad T^T

Jap Yami – “I’d be willing to stay with Yugi even if I don’t find my memories, cause we’re so awesome together– nah that’s a lie, Yugi’s nothing without me. He can’t even confess to the girl he likes without me telling him. Hell, he can’t even dress awesomely without me giving him tips.”

Dub Yami – “I already know I’m from Egypt and I kind of know why I’m here, but I’m gonna be all anal about finding out every detail of my past anyways. Oh, and I can’t even tell if I’m evil or not cause people keep giving me different backstories.”

YEAH……that’s right…..fashion tips. I remember one scene REALLY well where Yugi replaces the string of his puzzle with a chain and Yami’s just all “That looks good on you, but wouldn’t it all look better with some accessories, like some bracelets?” xDD I remember laughing so hard at that scene, I just can’t forget it. Also that one ep where Yugi forces Yami to go on a date with Tea, he’s trying on clothes and Yami says “Are you going on a date? Well, it’s about time, now GO GET EM!!!” oohho man….. I would like to share a quote from the dub Yami though, that I really liked :D it’s from the Battle City finals:

‎“How foolish! It’s our past that makes us who we are today! You can’t ignore where you came from. Don’t you know? It’s our history that shapes our future!”

Also, one more big character change: Bakura. He appears for only half the series and yet he’s the main final boss of the whole damn thing. He’s a MASTERMIND~! But they changed a lot of the stuff in the middle, cause 4kids is just evil that way. More evil than Bakura.

Jap Bakura – “Slowly but surely, I’ll let all these events flow since they’ll all lead right into my ultimate plan – to open to door of darkness. At the same time, I don’t know shit about my own past, all I know is that gathering all the items will release the door and that’s somehow good for me. I also put all actors to shame. You won’t know if it’s me or Ryou talking cause I’m just that good at acting.”

Dub Bakura – “With all the Millennium Items, I’ll be able to obtain power greater than that of the pharaoh and rule the world!! Unlike the pharaoh, I know everything about my past and everyone else’s BWAHAHHAA. And I desperately need Ryou so I think I’ll keep forcing him to let me use his body. And act extra British so that no one will know. Ever.”

Originally, Bakura was supposed to be plotting the whole thing that happened in the Memory World ever since freakin DUELIST KINGDOM. Yeah, he’s been planning that the whole damn time. Every time he talks to himself, it’s something about opening the door of darkness. But in the dub, they kept this quiet until around the actual arc everything happens…..well, that and the dub Bakura is a lot more forceful with Ryou. He’s just like “You’re not going anywhere and you’re gonna help me obtain those items whether you like it or not!” while in Japanese, he’s very simple “DOOR OF DARKNESS, DOOR OF DARKNESS” xD

Other general stuff would be like how they’re constantly going on about saving the world X.X on top of that, every single villain wants to take it over. That alone just killed all the villains’ personalities =___= except for Pegasus, they got his story generally right….and maybe even Zigfried xD

Marik: He only wanted to torture and kill Yugi ….yeah, it’s that simple. No “taking over the world” or “obtaining the pharaoh’s power”.
Yami Marik: A sadist and somewhat of a masochist. He doesn’t give a shit about taking over the world, he just wants to torture others. Oh yeah, and he didn’t send his father to the Shadow Realm, he stabbed him to death with the Millennium Rod. Oh wait, that wasn’t the rod, it was originally called the Millennium Axe. That’s right. An AXE.
Dartz: He was misguided by the Orichalcos and believed that all humans were evil. He continued to live on the earth for 10,000 years (kept alive by the power of the Orichalcos..?) to try and revive the Orichalcos God (or Great Leviathan in the eng ver). After reviving it, he would destroy the current world and create a new one, much like the once perfect Atlantis. He actually did see Atem in Egypt but wasn’t able to confront him cause it was during the time when Thief Bakura was causing mayhem, therefore preventing Dartz from doing anything. Oh, Bakura.

[WARNING: from here on out are spoilers for certain movies.....continue IF YOU DARE.]

Speaking of which, that new YGO movie that’s coming out, I WANNA SEE IT~!!! Of course, it’s BEEN released in Japan (in January, actually) and they even gave out special cards to everyone who watched it in theatres. We won’t be getting that cause America sucks like that xD but Dan Green’s in it, so I’m good 8D I’m starting to wonder why I keep spelling theatres like theatres x.x that kind of spelling is usually used in French and is changed to -er in English…..so why the hell do I spell it like thatttt >O< well yeah anyways, here’s Paradox himself:

Oh yeah, I forgot, the movie’s called “Yu-Gi-Oh!: Chouyuugo! Jikuu wo Koeta Kizuna!” which basically means “Super Fusion! Bonds That Have Transcended Time!”. Luckily for us, it’s simply called “Bonds that Transcend Time”. You can read the wikia there to get the story and all. I watched small parts of it and I can already tell that it’s gonna be a pretty serious movie. Not like heart-wrenching, but a hell of a lot better than the first one, FOR SURE XD for one thing, people actually DIE. I don’t know how the hell 4Kids is gonna work around that, but whenever familiar characters die early in the movie, you know something serious shit is gonna go down :P also, the villain, Paradox, isn’t much of a villain if you consider his motives. He comes from a future in utter ruins…..because of CARD GAMES. How the hell the whole world got so destroyed by card games is beyond me, but he seems to be one of, if not the only, survivor…..and yet he has such cool hair and clothes, AND a motorcycle that’s able to go through space and time (he also has really awkwardly placed spikes on his outfit). I don’t know, either.

His goal was to go back in time to prevent Duel Monsters from being created so that the future doesn’t end up being so crappily desolate. He does this the wrong way though, he goes to Yusei’s era first and then continues to go back from there. If he just went straight to Yugi’s era then it would’ve been fine but NOOO =___= he just had to take Yusei’s Stardust, just like a shitload of other villains already tried to do. Because he changed the different eras in a backwards order, time and space started to deteriorate, along with reality. Or something like that. Yeah, his methods weren’t that great, but he was considering the future of the world, willing to sacrifice a few people to make sure people even continued to exist as a whole at all. But of course, he duels the three main protagonists and he loses. Of course. Cause main characters automatically have the power to win EVERYTHING no matter what crappy situation they’re in. And you know what that means. The world will continue on its path to a distant destruction, created by cards. CARDS.

This movie’s coming out in the spring, with no set date or even month XDDD

Oh and the art director for this movie is TAKAHIRO KAGAMI. That means the animation is gonna be AWESOME! I LOVE KAGAMI~~

You know what else is being released this spring? THE NEW POKEMON MOVIE!!! That’s right! It’s called “Gen’ei no Hasha: Zoroaaku”. Title in English is “Phantom Ruler: Zoroark”. Critics didn’t give it great ratings…..well, it’s Pokemon, wtEFF are you expecting? It’s an interesting idea though, that this new Pokemon was able to transform into Ash….like an evil Ash XD bad news is – dubbing voice actors are differenttt AAHHHH it’s just not the same if Eric Stuart isn’t voicing Brock and James, it just isn’t~ T^T I mean I really wanna see it, but I think I’ll be heartbroken to find that I won’t be hearing Eric Stuart’s voice…..DANGIT XD I really like the animation for Pokemon movies, though. Like a lot of anime movies, the animation is a lot more fluid and they use a lot of 3D for the environment so it just makes everything look prettier :D

I have to say, Zorua looks adorable and Zoroark looks somewhat cool :DD I’m just glad that Raikou makes some kind of appearance in a movie FOR ONCE and that Celebi is also back *^^* I’m still a hardcore Suicune fan though :D WATER POKEMON~!!

That EFF is currently a combination of sorrow and rage. The source: the latest and supposedly last ep of Kuroshitsuji. Yeap. Everyone’s making a fuss about it and THIS is why:

SERIOUSLY WTFFF ok fine so he’s also a demon now, poor Sebby won’t be able to eat his soul ever ever since there IS no soul to eat and he STILL has to serve Ciel for eternity…..all his hard work paid off for shit~!!! I cried….CRIEDD. Even if they do have a 3rd season and they go prancing around eating souls together, that…..it just wouldn’t be the same T^T and Sebby would certainly be unhappy doing so. He already looked really upset around the end. But like a calm upset. He didn’t look pissed or sad or anything, just….”dammit I can’t do anything about it…..oh well….” like so hopeless~

And Claude, wtf was up with him, dying so peacefully like that >.< I wanted Sebby to slowly torture him AAHHHH he was such a bitch and he didn't get what he deserved....GRR!

GRRR!!!!!

Also, I’d just like to get this out my chest about how it annoys me to no end when people talk to me about how “oh it’s the start of the semester but my teacher is so mean and the work is so hard, I’m gonna fail for sure…..I better not fail in ___011 though” ….wtf are you serious, man? I know I’m not exactly the best student either and I do also complain about my classes and profs in the beginning of the semester, but never do I immediately deduct that I’m gonna fail with no questions asked. I also know that not everyone’s like me, but most people would agree that THAT is a retarded way of going about it. The class this person was talking about is freakin ENG101. ENG101. Need I say more? It’s a class he/she needs and they complaining that failing is the only option? Oho hell no. You can kindly stfu and do your best in that class regardless. Not that this person has ever done their best….. you know what? This YGO icon explains my feelings perfectly:

And this one’s just for fun XD I couldn’t help myself, I just had to make this haha:

So yeah, Kuroshitsuji and that person have officially upset me today XDD

Well that should be obvious. The first thing I’m gonna do is get laid. And then I’m gonna get laid again. Then do some crack and get laid some more. That’s what I’m all about. Getting fucked. [Dan Green during a Samurai Deeper Kyo blooper]

I call it a phenomenon. Cause the word is awesome. Anyways, this “phenomenon” is basically my sudden interest in the colors white and blue as opposed to my usual black and red, which I still love. I’m just becoming attracted to white+blue these days. I thought about it. And then it hit me. It’s all YGO’s fault. AGAIN. Like seriously, I just unconsciously like what my favorite characters or people like and then it just blends into my inner core personality overtime. Sometimes it just continues without me realizing it. For example, that one phase I had where I keep wearing the dark blue+gray combo. I recently realized that it was because BoA once said that her favorite colors were navy blue and gray. I felt pretty stupid when I thought of that xD

See the white+blue stripes? Yeah, I’m dying for a shirt like that right now xDD

I guess people take on after others unconsciously whether it be friends, family, idols….anime characters…..xD oh yeah, the white and blue thing was from Bakura. I’m guessing it’s cause I have this friend who calls herself Melvin and she calls me Florence so I was just like “hey I already got the british accent down, let me wear his colors too just to make myself worthy of being called FLORENCE” xDDD man, a stupid friend nickname thing turned into THIS useless shenanigan. I like that word, too. Shenanigan. SHENANIGANS!
