Plans And Plots
Okay, so aside from flailing over CSI/Bones/House this week, I've been watching some anime. (What else is new, right? Shush.) Someone over at anime_downloads put Those Who Hunt Elves up, and while I have the first season already I've been looking for the second for about three years, so I was happy to see that. Megaupload is being a bitch and taking forever, but I'm slowly getting them downloaded.
While trying to download TWHE, I did get episodes 1-6 of Vampire Knight downloaded/watched. My basic impression goes along the lines of sdghaydughyfsudohgfdj;kl *___*!! SO MUCH LOVE. *wants more like NOW OMG* A while back I had a commission for Zero from that series, and while I was looking at pics (all manga since it was before the anime) I came to the conclusion that it looked interesting, but I had no idea how awesome it was going to be. X3
What else? Oh! My Steel Angel Kurumi came in this morning, and I've been binging on it all day. My head hurts from the subtitles. How come official subtitles are always so much smaller/harder to read than fansubs? Gah. *aspirin* Other than that, it's a cute series. Though the eps are only about 12 minutes long. I hate that. Psychic Academy was like that too. :P Kurumi makes me think of Suiseiseki, but without the sadistic streak. It's probably the over-use of "desu!" lol.
And I'm trying to find somewhere to download subbed episodes of Hand Maid May. I asked in the anime downloads comm, and was directed to somewhere to download dubbed eps, but... yeah. The dub isn't the worst one I've ever seen, but it's still not great and I'd really rather subs.
I wasn't nearly so picky about dubbing until I got into voice acting back in 2001. xD; Now I pick it apart all the time. I'm probably really annoying. :P
...And Now For Something Anime North Related!
A week today until I'm heading down to Dad's for the Anime North weekend. >3< I'm excited this year! Though I still wish I could have sold ponies again. I was really counting on the money for the Otakon trip. Well... I'm working around that. I'M GOING IF I HAVE TO HITCHHIKE DAMMIT. >__O;;
I think this is how it's going to work cosplay-wise; Friday is Haruhi, then Saturday/Saturday night masquerade is Suigintou, and Friday is AU!Demyx. My Suigintou costume is really hot though, so if it's too warm I might end up doing Haruhi or Demyx on Sunday during the day as well and just saving Suigintou for the masquerade. Which reminds me. NOTE TO SELF: FINISH YOUR DAMN MASK, YOU PROCRASTINATING IDIOT. >__>;;
I need to chat with Mel and Zexy and see how we want to work meeting up. I'm going to the masquerade with Mel, but other than that I don't know. Also, I'm considering asking if I can borrow Sarah's cell to take with me, just to make communication with them easier while we're there. I'd pay whatever charges I made, obviously, but since I don't have a cell phone of my own, it'd just make things easier.
NOTE TO SELF #2: GET A CELL PHONE AT SOME POINT. SERIOUSLY. THEY REALLY ARE HANDY FOR STUFF LIKE THIS. >.<;;
Apparently Lois and Dad are excited to see my new haircut. Neither of them has ever seen me with short hair... well, I mean, Dad did when I was a baby, but not since then. ♥ On Thursday before Mom and I pack up to head down there, I also need to remember to do Dad's broken glass torte and the banana bread I want to make for Lois.
