It would appear that my mom has set up some more presents for some reason. Other than most are for Dan, since he wasn't here for Christmas. Most likely though they are just unwanted stuff. But whatever..

Can it be? Has Nickolodeon actually gotten a tolerable show comming soon? Some show by the name of "Avatar", appearently imitating anime style as well. It saddens me how much American cartoons have been doing that lately. Especially since most people couldn't tell the difference before. I have no idea how many times I had to tell people Teen Titans is not anime. I would make an exception due to the fact it's main creators are in fact Japanese. However, I know for sure that Robin is pure American. In fact, supposibly there was an early Teen Titans made some years back. Unsure of date, but yes, the new one is actually a remake. Not completely original. Thus making it impossible it to be anime. Not saying it's a bad show though. In fact it's probably one of the better American cartoons out there currently. Along with some other classics.

But ah yes, the ongoing fight: Anime(let alone dubbed or subbed) versus American. Frankly, aside from some horrible horrible anime, I would still have to say it is better. Why? Anime actually keeps going. Rather than American stuff which you could it's all just fillers. I have only seen a few American shows that actually keep an going story. Which is the key thing to ripen character and plot. There's just nothing to evolve on. However spontaneous stuff is fun every now and then..

Yey, 2nd post today.

Made a spiffy(damn, haven't used that word in so long...) new wallpaper, finally. Some of you might reconise the image. Seeing how I used the same picture for my SM layout (before Freepgs killed it *gonk*). Kinda like it. Got a little rusty at graphics since I haven't done anything in a long time. Not that I was really good to begin with. But I was in desprate need for a new wallpaper. On the count that I've had my older one in use since August o.o. So fear it. Tribute to my Disgaea obession currently anyway. (PS: My new game hit ep 7 last night. Been taking a break from it lately)

Sigh, somehow I REALLY want to get WA2 now. I'm thinking about searching the official online Gamestop store in hopes they might have it. Reminds me though, still need to get the older one working. However I noticed that there might be ways around that. But I want to wait, partially due to laziness, partially due to time consumingness. Also might as well wait until I get WA2 or not, since then it would be needed for sure.

Also reminds me of how far behind I am in my manga as well. Speaking of which. The FMA manga was licensed about a week ago. Which makes me quite sad. I wonder if the online reader is still up... Stupid licensing companies and their evil ways.


Also I feel like drawing something. Not sure what though. Cale is sorta calling out to me. But so is some other people. Also feel like doing a cosplay parody thing. Those are sometimes fun to do.
