Hey everyone! I know, I know... I barely post and if I get in the chat, I disappear after a few seconds... Or after a few moments of silence. I blame the chat and our faulty internet for disconnecting me. > >
Anyway, I recently restarted watching Higashi no Eden. Since the last fansub group (Lunar) that I was getting it from stopped working on it or something, I decided to get it from any group out there that is not offering wide screen in MKV. My computer at home can't process them that well. > > Probably a processor thing, for it is well fed with RAM and Video Card.
The one that I got now is from Darksoul Subs. After watching one episode to continue where I left off... I was displeased with the subbing quality. I am thinking to download another batch or something from another group. I think I should go to Des' comparison of fansubbers for this one... I just need to dig through his posts.
Anyway, I was highly amused on opening episode 8 with a Akira shouting "Johnny!" I missed poking fun at Higashi no Eden for the Johnny's. XD
In other stories, my sister informed me that another store offered manga for sale. :D
I checked out the titles - mostly from Tokyo Pop. Some were completely unfamiliar to me, specially those made by Koreans. I noted to myself to call them graphic novels. I managed to buy Cowboy Bebop Vol. 2 and .hack Legend of the Twilight Vol. 1.
The Legend of the Twilight Volume didn't seem to be in perfect condition, with a few, uh... scratches, on the cover. I had no choice. It was the only copy there. Either I hope for another one (with the chances of not being able to acquire it) or not take it at all. I decided to take it.
I learned that the Cowboy Bebop manga was a re-make from another author based on the series, and it was released immediately after the anime, and the movies and the 3-part manga, before the series became famous. I'm thinking of it as a published fan comic. :P
The .hack manga was chosen thanks to Miss Anonymous. She told me some time ago that the manga was not bad - compared to the anime version. I read a few chapters and it seems alright. I'm still confused with the .hack universe, for I haven't finished a single series of it. .hack//roots is still waiting in line for me to download it.
I am currently shaking my fist at my torrent of Darker than Black. It has stopped seeding at episode 14. D:
While it may be true that I can watch it on-line (and in English) at the official site, I can't watch it here that well, plus I'd rather watch it at home. And my sister is also watching it - and prodding me for the next episodes.
I tried searching for the individual episodes to no luck. I guess I should have downloaded them earlier? I don't know... So, I'm stuck at episode 14. At least I'm thankful that it wasn't at a cliffhanger. Heh.
Well, that's all for now. See you around!
Hey everyone, how's it going?
I think the posting function went boom when Adam tweaked with the backroom... I managed to double post my previous entry... and I don't know if anyone was alerted that I made a post. good thing I managed to remedy it before anyone noticed... > >
Anyway, I'm feeling alright now that my nasal congestion cleared up. It was gone yesterday evening, so yeah... :D
November 1, we'll be heading off to the cemeteries again to remember our dearly departed... but, I'm a bit worried as to the state of things on that day. We are expecting a cat. 2 typhoon to hit landfall on Saturday. As of posting time, we have a signal number 2 (out of 3, with 3 as the strongest).
I just hope we don't have a wet day on or before the 1st. It's troublesome going around the cemetery when it's all muddy... > >
See you around!
I noticed this ad while waiting for a page of Detective Conan to load... ain't it pretty? *shot*
What caught my attention, though was the typo. Why did this remind me of that tasty cupcake typo Adam made some time ago?
Well, excuse me as I deal with my headache from this stupid cold... =_=
Hey everyone... I don't know if anyone noticed my sudden disappearance, but I was not able to post that I was sent to Manila for three days (21-23) for a seminar...
I'll be posting a long post in the next pages for those who have the time t...

It seems I managed to live through being stuck in traffic for more than 3 hours... I did suffer from other set-backs, but at least I live to tell the tale...
I have no idea what exactly caused the sudden surge of traffic from what used to be a traffic-free zone. I heard it had something to do with a politician...
Bah! It cost me precious time... and patience...
Well, see you around! :D
