Well, it's been a very anime-filled weekend for me - decided to finally catch up on a few things. I began by finishing Samurai Champloo (after a frustrating saga with the very last episode - YouTube is such a godsend, but you knew this already).

Cut for thoughts that got surprisingly long (aka, I tried to do a 'proper' review) ) Overall it was a highly original, nicely-balanced anime that really engaged me. I'm slow on the uptake to only be finishing it now, I know, thought I'd pimp it to anyone who hasn't checked it out yet.

I also got all caught up with Ouran. I still have a bit of a frustrated relationship with that anime, because they do some nice development episodes... and then kind of forget they ever happened, and go back to everything being back to the way it was before. -_- Plus, I still wish Tamaki would get a break every so often. He's so lovely. ♥ (Anyone else wanting to see Haruhi's dad doing half the Host Club? ...That'd be just me, then...)
diamondlife: (Why do these things always happen to me?)
The more everyone squeals over Ouran, the less I want to like it. :/ Which is a shame, because I really enjoy it! But when a series already has so much love, I often feel disinclined to give it any more. (This applies mostly to series that are actually *good*. PoT is a special case. *cough*) Besides, Haruhi is juu~ust the wrong side of smartarse - that "girl-getting-one-over-on-the-guys" thing always grates my nutmeg. And Kyouya is fucking creepy. Serious.

Both my brain *and* body feel very, very strange this evening. I don't like it.

[Edit] Oh, I uploaded some Gakuen Heaven for [livejournal.com profile] trembles, so feel free to grab it if you want some, er, entirely random eps! ^^' Episode 4 | Episode 5 | Episode 7

Oh, *how* adorable is Gakuen Heaven getting?! Kazuki and Keita's relationship is just so lovely, and the supporting cast are a lot of fun too. It has a nice natural feel, which I always like in a series, especially a shonen ai one. ♥ If angst kicks in any time soon, I shall be furious at another opportunity wasted. ^^;; *crosses fingers* Let's just hope!

Got another ep of Ouran to watch too - the ending of the last one made me kind of sad for the twins. ;_; I have a whole Thought comparing Haruhi with Honda Tohru, but it doesn't make sense, because things like that don't, which is a shame cos it's a genuine reason! ^^' It basically amounts to the fact that, although I don't *dis*like Haruhi, I don't *love* her either, while I really like Tohru, cos she's so, well, nice! ...And that's where I'll stop, cos it'll break down into nonsensity. *cough*

In any case. I'm so tired, but not sleepy, which is very, very annoying! ^^' I went to a place after work cos I picked up a flyer that said they did free reiki, but when I went the place was deserted. I've only ever seen it deserted, despite its banner and brightly coloured door. >:E Don't advertise things that don't exist, yer bastards!

Did finish my 39 ficlet (as near as damnit, anyway) so expect it tomorrow (no more typing tonight, probably. z_o).

[Edit] 悪い夢を見たと思う。Plz tell me whether or not you can use と思う with a verb in that way. And if not, what I do instead.
