Addiction x TV = Lazy Mei…

The past week I’ve been uber-lax about updating my blog… and I feel soooo bad that I have. It’s mainly due to Ally McBeal, this Fish Tycoon game, the Vampire Wars, Mafia Wars and My Zoo games on Facebook, other online gamey type things, and lotsa doodling n stuff during Ally McBeal, since I’ve seen it before, its mainly background chow, half paying attention to it while I’m doing other things. I haven’t even been keeping up with the summer anime! Not even Saki and Shangri-la, my continuations from Spring… Only Haruhi 2 and Umineko no naku koro ni. And Aoi Hana kinda, but I’m one episode behind on that too…

Random, cute Goto-P pic. Love their artwork.

Keeping up appearances…

I am seriously far behind on the summer anime I chose to watch… Only one I’ve kept with is Umineko. Not even Canaan I’m up to date with! Others I’m being lazy with are Aoi Hana, Sea Story, Saki and Shangri La. There are others I’d like to have watched, Sora no Manimani and Kanamemo, that just don’t look like it’ll happen this season. Might dl when they’re complete, or if I’ve run out of stuff to watch. Like that’ll ever happen.

Summer really is upon me now. My mothers gone into ‘holiday’ mode, where she wants to do lots of holiday-like things. Trips out, seaside etc. I wanna go canoeing most of all. And any boats. I love boats. Water too, even the mucky brown water of the Thames on the boat ride I went on yesterday was awesome. Trip to london was yesterday. Was awesome. Got meronpan, so I was happy. Got a recipe for how to make some aswell, so I will have to try that out, will post its success/failure when I do so lol.

Kannagi Released in the West!! :Yipeeeee!!!!:

SO VERY HAPPY!!! SO-SO-SO VERY HAPPY!!!

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Who actually buys anime DVD’s?

Ahhh Nagi, Kannagi is one of the series I most want on DVD, but it has yet to be released.

I read Neo’s big fansub article in the new issue, 61, and felt compelled to write something, cos I do download fansubs, yes its illegal, but I, unlike alot of people, buy the series when they’re out. And I only watch anime I know I like, I don’t go downloading everything under the sun, that would be a complete waste of time.

In the past year, less actually, I’ve bought more anime than I ever have before. Online, at conventions, in stores. I like to think I do my part for the anime market. And this is mainly thanks to being able to watch and test out anime using fansubs. Anime like Clannad, Ouran High Host Club, Onegai Twins, Kanon, all anime I bought because of the fansubs I watched. Some series I buy just cos I know I’ll like them, To Heart, Midori Days, I hadn’t seen them before, maybe one episode of Midori Days on a anime preview disc from Newtype or something. Other stuff I bought when I saw it cheap, like Bleach, and, god forbid Naruto…(just tried the first part of the first season, didn’t get through the first disc… Bleach was better, have the first season of that. There are also occasions when I rented anime from the library. Did that with Elfin Lied and few others. Tsukihime I got because I had the first volume in a big-multipack of anime and loved it, mostly volume 1′s in the set.

Merry Christmas!
