It figures that the one time that stupid Drive does something cool is the one time I don't get affected by it!

[Shinpachi looks about as normal as ever...though something does seem out of place.  In fact, his glasses seem slightly...off.  Maybe it's just a curious fashion statement?]

First no training arc, and then I get skipped over for a free power ( Read more... )

[ STAGE LEFT ]

Oh, how I wish I had nice glasses.... but I can't afford DESIGNER FRAMES that I want!

[ The camera pans left and the scene changes to a brightly-lit boardwalk with sparkling water and the soft sounds of children laughing in the background. ]

Ah, Jean-Claude, where did you buy your glasses! They are fabulous!

[ There is a long ( Read more... )

Shinpachiiii. This stuff feels like cake batter on my face. It's too heavy. -- Unh? Shinpachi, answer me.

[the indeed colorfully-cake-faced teen stares witlessly out towards the camera]

If you're playing MeganeTokyo again, I'm gonna punch you in the crotch, skirt or not.

[►VIDEO post;]

[the feed jars on to what appears to be a master and a student -- locked in a battle to the death!]

[Zura presses a wooden sword of +10 tiny, awful splinters against Shinpachi’s -10 adam’s apple throat, and lets out a loud, evil laugh]

Haaa ha ha! You shall never have the hand of my daughter, you fool! Were your lowly shadow to ( Read more... )

[The feed starts with an odd scritching and scratching at the Guide's microphone.  And when the video kicks on, there's...something furry obscuring the lens.  After a few moments, a squirrel's face peeks into the frame, examining the lens ( Read more... )

[There's a thud and the low crackle of static as the Guide starts recording.  There's a bright light, and the lens struggles to focus in the light of the sun.  It looks like someone's Guide was knocked off of a table, as to what...well, you're about to see.]

[As the lens focuses, Fox can be seen struggling with...is that a plastic cone?  Why, in ( Read more... )

[The Guide turns on and Une has her back turned to it. Blindfolded, she's assumed her shooting stance at  what appears to be Thor's firing range. Laser gun in her grip, she shoots at the target, keeping a steady hand before ceasing abruptly. Maintaining her blindfold and position, she mutters...]

Tardy, Mister Shimura?

A-Ah, sorry...I've never been ( Read more... )

[Have Shinpachi sitting on a bench on board of the Sif.  Next to him is a large sack of letters and packages.  Looks like the Yorozuya was commissioned as a courier service and...well, they waited until the last minute to deliver all of the mail!]

Um?  Hello?  Can anyone help me?

I don't really know my way around too well, and I'm kind of in a hurry!

[When the Guide gets turned on, it sounds like there's a bit of a struggle happening.  The voices, what's heard through various grunts, seem pretty familiar.  In fact, it's none other than Shinpachi and Fox.]

--for your own good!  Now stop struggling!  This won't hurt!

Forget it! You're not putting that thing on me!

Yes, I am!  You brought this on ( Read more... )

[For those of you adventurous enough to watch this particular entry on the Guide, then you are in for a serious treat.  Or horrors, whichever you deem appropriate.  Ever wonder what the inside of a mind bursting with pop and otaku culture is like?]

[The 'feed' starts out steeped in darkness, as if the video wasn't working at all.]

[Though, little by ( Read more... )
