ROD fans? Please join me in squeeing over Joker. Y/N?
So, I'm sure most of you have had a bazillion and a half posts on your f-lists about the great LJ Strikethrough of 2007, so I guess I'll just say I'm a little confused, disappointed, and LOL-ing. At what, feel free to ask, but I'm sure you don't want to hear any more on it.
Anyway, I finished watching Read or Die (OVA) and ROD the TV not too long ago and I loved them. The OVA was awesome awesome awesome minus Crispin Freeman's horrible impersonation of an accent. (You're ON NOTICE, bitch!) The series was full of jiggling boobs and nonsensical plot points, but the characters were fairly likable, the dub was well-done, and the animation was good. Anyway, the one thing I am completely obsessed with, however, is Joker. ZOMG hot British bastard alert. And W00T for JB Blanc and his sexy voice. He can patronize me any day. I think Joker pwned his way up to my third all-time favorite fictional character in the span of about 5 episodes. >_> My friend thinks I should cosplay Yomiko for Sakuracon next year but I've already got my heart set on doing CC and I'd need a Joker to go with me anyway.
Joker's the main reason I decided to start reading the manga, and I just finished volume 2 earlier this afternoon. I'm probably going to the bookstore tomorrow to hopefully get my hands on volumes 3 and 4, and maybe Read or Dream too. :3 Anyway, he's so cracked out in the manga. Major WTF and hilarity. I love manga!Joker and anime!Joker equally. eeheehee... God, between Walter, Joker, Sherlock Holmes, and Christian Bale, I seem to be developing a real fixation on UK men. >_>
Anyway, The manga doesn't seem to be nearly as character driven as the anime was. I mean, Yomiko is getting a lot of development so far, but everyone else seems kind of ... meh. Donnie seems like he'll get more work, but I don't know about anyone else. Anyway, the plot and storyline are more interesting and believable than the anime's, but I'll hold back on reviews till I finish it. I wish I had gotten into this series before Sakuracon though. Then I could've gotten Kurata to sign something other than my Death Note. :(
Anyway, (Geez, how many times have I said "anyway" anyway?) still no new prospects on the job front and I'm starting to think gouging my eyes out with a spoon will be less frustrating. But the medications are keeping me from getting too depressed and for some reason I'm still very hopeful about it. WTF Fighting!
Also, I'm very disappointed that Stephen Colbert won't be coming back to Harvey Birdman. What's Harvey Birdman without Phil and Reducto? Nothing, I tell you. Just another dude in a mask with ginormous wings.
And just so this entry isn't completely pointless spam-like fangirl squeeage, a couple of Robot Chicken sketches VIDSPAM!
Childhood Onset Schizophrenia. Calvin and Hobbes fans will appreciate the hilarity and sadness. :3 Mars is amaaaaaaazzziiiing...
This one's not that funny, but it made me smirk. Bring me a taco! Probably only watch if you do not think the president is intelligent. >_>
I'm hella bored right now so I'll probably make some graphics or something and then come back with another entry...
