It is my deep regret to say that, when pressured with the promise of excellence, I caved in and downloaded things legally. Which is to say, I've been watching Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex over the last few days, and the only subs past ep. 22 that I could easily find illegally were terrible. I watched episode 23 and then gave up. Dear friends, I love this show so much, it cannot be described in words. Major Kusanagi is the character that inspired the English language to come up with the word 'awesome'. The Tachikoma are the most adorable things ever. I am going to marry the Laughing Man someday. So you see, I really needed to finish watching the series.
As it turns out, Amazon is doing this thing where you can download tv episodes for money. I know, iTunes has the same, but Amazon actually has anime episodes! The second season of Stand Alone Complex is all four dollars an episode, so I will probably go back to veoh.com, but the first season is two dollars per episode, and I am willing to spend six bucks to get my fix.
In other news, work is fine, and my twenty-first birthday is on Sunday. Hooray! Legal drinking age! And casino gambling as well!
I bought a bunch of volumes of Wallflower in a fit of 'oh god what has been happening with Sunako and what does the back cover mean by the fact that she rejected Kyohei!?' Happily, Kyohei didn't ask her out or anything, she just freaked out over him being a creature of light at a bad time and kind of hurt his feelings for a chapter or so. (Kyohei with his feelings hurt = kind of an odd idea, but dealt with in a very IC sort of way.) Wallflower is fantastic and everyone who likes funny manga with pretty boys and no real romance involved should buy it.
This is all for now! I must remind you all that the Laughing Man is both adorable and a better hacker than Major Kusanagi. Such marriage material right there.
