Birthday was good. We went to The Sakura, and had yummy sushi, and cut my birthday cake there. We even gave a piece to our waiter. It was a pretty funny affair, actually. I'm glad he finally took a piece. And the cake, mmm, the cake. It was so gooooood. It was from Stonecold Creamery: cake batter ice cream mixed with coconut, gram cracker, with layers of white cake in between, a layer of chocolate all around, and finally, Oreos on the very top.
::squeals:: My mom bought me the slim PS2. And to my great satisfaction through online research, I found out that I can still mod it without too much of a problem...
I also finished X yesterday night. Kyaaa. X. Kyaaa. I understand that things need to get changed in the transition from manga to TV series, and I have even praised it for some of the changes they made (such as Kotori being more believeable in the anime, IMO), but... I really felt like they watered down things more than necessary in certain places, or added random crap that they didn't need to (like Sorata talking about cooking for Arashi after he got severely injured. Come on, the guy can't even move his right hand - -;;). It can't be helped in many cases, considering it was only 24 episodes... GAH, I wish it could have been at least twice as long... would have given poor Subaru and others more justice, perhaps...
... Subaru-saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan ; o ;. Sure, they portray him as going on with his life, but... nooooooooooooooo. He got jipped out of the other cool character interaction that went on in the manga. One thing the anime could have randomly included was some interaction between him and Yuzuriha; that would have been really interesting, considering Inuki and Subaru's like (or former like?) of animals in general. That would have been fun... damn. And I like Yuzu, too; she's one of the few characters out there, along with Hokuto, who is genki without being a ditz!
