Whoops, I feel like I've been spamming recently...It's probably because, as a result of babysitting, I am ready to smash my brains so this is oddly refreshing. ^-^) Warning: ...remember...I'm a fangirl...and not just any fangirl...one of THAT variety...

This way to Sotoba... )

anime, shiki, kichiku megane

Some people at the Supernatural comm suggested this series and I was meh about it, but now?

WELL, THEY NEVER MENTIONED THE HOMOEROTIC UNDERTONES.

So now it's a must. And that girl is freaking creepy. I love it. -goes to search for torrent-

1300 people? D: THAT'S 1000 MORE THAN THE TOWN I'M CLOSEST TO, AND 200 MORE THAN THE LOCATION OF THE GROCERY STORE. But then again, I also get wild foxes to stare at. Prrt.

I'd heard it was a vamp anime but that was it. Didn't get interested until I ran across comments on download pages for Togainu saying Shiki was really good. *Unlike Togainu* Considering how fail Togainu's ending was, I NEEDED to watch something else right away and picked it up. And marathon-ed through it. *In the dark! Seriously. Tons of fun!* Now I'm sad bc I have no more episodes to waaaatch.

For my fave series, the homo-eroticism is like a must! If somebody had mentioned that earlier, I would have been set! AND the pairing is uber cute. Tooru's like a puppy with Natsuno. So watch, watch! (Ugh, need to make a mini-amv for theeeeeem)

xD HOLY. Smallest place I visit semi-regularly (My mother's hometown) is about 1100 peeps. (That number might have decreased since they've had several murders this past year. orz)I love how quiet it gets. And you can actually see the stars! xD Aw, foxes!? CUUUUTE. I JUST GET TO CHOKE ON SMOG AND DEAL WITH TRAFFIC. LOS ANGELES FOR THE WIN!

I JUST WATCHED THE FIRST EPISODE AND I AM LOVING IT. AND YOU'RE RIGHT, IT'S EVEN BETTER IN THE DARK. -loves horror films to death- And I will definitely stray from Togainu. Guh, I hate bad endings.

Same here. XD If there's no subtext, I get sad and fail to get really excited. It has to be brilliant for me to really get over my BL complex--I think the only one that's been able to succeed in that area was Toradora.

YOU CAN'T SEE THE STARS? O________O Oh, right, LA.

...

YOU LIVE IN LA?! dsflnls;dfsn;fd This is like country mouse meets city mouse. And it's certainly not quiet--you either hear cows, wolves or owls. -nodnod- Or a Whippoorwill--which you would probably kill yourself over if you ever did. THOSE THINGS WILL WAKE YOU UP AT 2AM, AND THEN PROCEED TO KEEP YOU UP UNTIL MORNING. Imagine a call that can be heard miles away TEN FEET AWAY FROM YOUR WINDOW. >__o

Hate is a strong word. I would refrain from using it...simply because I managed to get through it. xD Some episodes, like episode 4, were pretty good. But the more we went into the series, the worse it got. I think it might also be me getting fed up with bad BL adaptations/bad adaptations in general.

Hell, even my brother likes Shiki! And it's hard to get him into an anime. (Even though he dislikes Natsuno at the moment...but that was also the case with me until about episode 4.)

We should! School is starting back up for me though. orz
