pkmn collecting, children's card games and spinning tops
Yeah...I'm at my campus library writing this up on a public computer lololol. Wanted to try it out hahaha and I should be studying for my bio midterm that's in less than a week. My bio class is killing me >__>...cuz the recent chapters of reborn are epic xD! And I was working on my daily-life post, but my bro told me not to upload pics cuz it lags his computer =___=....and told me to do it when he's not on (which is NEVER!). So, that's gonna have to wait....Same as the Inheritance Arc summary for the anime lol. The arc ended already and I didn't make a summary for all of the episodes ^^;;;....
Oh and I got so many goodies in the mail this week xD! Mainly pokedolls (don't ask.....they're just too adorable >w<). My mom was like, "Are you sure you can't buy these here?" I told her, you can't get these specific ones.....since they're exclusive to the pkmn center in New York, and Japan.....My local Toys R Us only has those american Jakks plushes that aren't all that great *shot*. And my fav store "gacha gacha hobbies" only has a small selection of pokedolls.....Oh and I saw those Jakks foam balls and they really do cost $4(well cdn $ is only off ~5cents these days compared to US$) as seen in the pkmn collector's community...or is it cheaper in the states? Those Jakks plush cost $10 too ><....I think Canada's Toys R Us just overprices pkmn merch since supply is low? And i tried a random gacha machine and got an Umbreon Chou for my first try xD! Kinda rare, but don't think I'm gonna sell it.....
Recently I've been taking a stroll down my old childhood/nostalgic route of fandoms but in the 21st century style (doesn't make sense I know). Like last sat I watched Metal Fushion Beyblade (or Metal Fight Beyblade) on YTV and it was hilarious xD!!!! The dubbing was bad for some characters and the pronounation of names like, "Key-yoo-yaaa" for kyouya a character in MF beyblade hahaha. Plus they had major violence even though it's just a game about spinning tops where characters would step on another's hands while they protected their bey (the new "hip" term for beyblades apparently >__>) or some "implied" profanity I think like Benkei always say "BULL BULL BULL BULLLL!" and another says, "CRABBBB BULLL!!!!" or maybe it's just me.....I find it amusing when they try to make the spinning tops have logic xD when they create tornadoes that destroy warehouses. And my bro pointed out that everywhere they go, there's a bey stadium o__O...on the mountains, in the beach, in the middle of town, you name it. They also call their bitbeasts "special moves"( more like cheating moves lol). Some kid show this is xD. (Oh and at my local Toys R Us they have a new display section selling beys hahaha.)
And I watched an episode of 5Ds afterwards expecting card games on motorcycles. I was disappointed that not all of their "duels" are on motorcycles. BUT, the episode afterwards had a duel on motorcycles so I watched that xD. The main chara Yuusei says, "Let's rev it up!" That's as hilarious as "Get your game on!" or "It's time to duel!" hahaha. Apparently it's a motorcycle term. But yeah...they sure take their card games seriously...ppl can get thrown off their motorcycles. And this show is violent for kids...they show gangs with bats and weapons running after kids to beat them up. The character Jack who's the "Kaiba" of the series even ties up his friend on a boat in the ocean and makes Yuusei swim to save the poor kid while Jack steals Yuusei's best card >__>...talk about desperate....
Guess that's all the ranting I have for now since I gotta run off to eat lunch before class starts in 30 min >(I bet you were thinking, "What no reborn rants this time?" I would if I had the time xD)
