If only there was a restaurant of paradise…

Well, to some people, it would be Casetta Dell’orso, but I’ll admit I don’t think it is. But then again, I must be wrong since the show is called Ristorante Paradiso.
lol well I guess this is paradise for someone, right?
But yeah… hmmm…. so I initially wrote this in parts and assumed by the end it wouldn’t be that long so I could put all three show reviews together but it ended up being kinda long… plus I am going to be busy in the next couple weeks with my summer school exam and then going to California and so I’m going to split this up. Oh the suspense lol.
Oh and this should go without saying by now but there be SPOILERS ahead.
why am I so behind…

On second thought, don’t answer that.
Oh that devilish smile of yours…
lol Finally. After a long time (it must be close to a month by now… sorry!) I’ve gotten around to writing/posting this review/something about Kuroshitsuji. I thought this show was fabulous but unfortunate that the amount of comedy started to die down by the end. This show had great potential at the beginning but became a love-it-or-hate-it show for many by the end. Nevertheless, I still thought it was good and would recommend it to any dark fantasy/comedy lover. And the cast (and voice cast) are simply amazing.
And I don’t know why but Photobucket randomly makes my pictures black and white for some reason… it’s really weird… Hmm…
On a another not, anyone else excited for E3? And apparently the 3 new games to be revealed by Square-Enix?
Anyway, with a SPOILERS warning, shall we?
Yes we shall.
Crisis Core… it’s over…!

Doesn’t it kinda look like a Kingdom Hearts cover artwork?
I cried. Twice.
And this is seriously saying something because I’ve never cried after reading any story or watching any movie in my life. I’d say the closest I came to watery eyes would be at the end of the Sailor Moon manga, but I was bawling here. And I even quickly played through the whole game again the next day (and loved every moment of it even more if that’s possible) and I still cried. Possibly more. I was so immersed into this story and the awesome and fairly interactive ending even though I knew what was coming, but it was amazing. I can’t really say anything more than that.
But of course, I will.
And it will be after my SPOILERS AHOY warning.
There.
Before we dive in, I just want to say if you live in LA, you have to go see this and send me more pictures so I can live through you vicariously. The Square-Enix blog says it’s at the corner of S. Figueroa Street and Olympic Boulevard in Downtown Los Angeles. I wish I could see the real thing. And it’s kinda funny that it’s overtop the Grand Theft Auto poster. Take that! lol.
Use brings about wear, tear, and rust. And that’s a real waste.

May 2, 2009 at 8:30 pm | In Anime, Recommendations and Reviews | Leave a CommentBoo I have a lot of work right now… blah. The only thing I can think about is school will be over in a month and a bit…
Then I have summer school but that’s totally different lol.
So, this awesome show ended a while ago, but only really a couple weeks ago for me. I loved every moment of it because one, it’s a reverse harem; two, that also means there are plenty of bishies; three, everything else is also gorgeous; four, no helpless/hopelessly in love heroine; and five; I love the time period and magical fantasy of it all. I’ll be kinda talking about both the first and second seasons since they really just go together and that’s just how my train of thought goes… I think.
Oh and SPOILERS AHOY!
Ah… I love this show… not only is this an awesome pic but this show has gorgeous backgrounds… lol
Balancing the scales…

… of number of shows watched and number of shows to watch.
Or at least trying to.
Latest show finished: Ryoko’s Case File
Chronicles the various supernatural cases that brilliant 27-year-old elite investigator Ryōko Yakushiji and her subordinate Junichirō Izumida are confronted with.
Length: 13 episodes
I first took interest in this because it was a murder mystery and it had girls with guns (always a fun mix), so I thought I’d take a look. And I’ve tried to make this one free of major spoilers, so yeah.
Have I told you how much I love weekends?

I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned it once or twice… 
Aah… two exams done… four more to go…
What sucks though is that the exams I think I’ll have the most trouble with are my last three… so I can’t even feel that relieved. Grr…
Anyway! Enough about school. I’m sorry! I would have posted this earlier today but in the middle of writing, I went to go see Slumdog Millionaire which was very good. Although you may not understand all of it because there’s some dialogue that’s not in English and it’s not completely subtitled. So they kind of cheat and avoid saying the f-word in English but say it all the time in Hindi. (I don’t say that word! I just know because Russell Peters made a joke about it… (go to about 2:26). But yeah! Great heart-warming movie. It was pretty cool how his whole life prepared him for that one moment. But I won’t spoil…
Since last week I finished my review on Vampire Knight Guilty, it’s time to write one on Hakushaku to Yousei and the new show! Haha I still haven’t said the name, but I guess you could cheat and just look at the tags for this post… I’ll admit tags are awesome when searching for something but they take the fun out of the surprise lol.
Once again, since these are completed shows, there will be spoilers.
Catastrophe Overdrive!

haha…. I just think that’s a really funny title. And it actually does have a meaning and connection to what I’m about to talk about! In more ways than one! And that makes it extra cool.
So, first of all, I have finally finished Vampire Knight Guilty and Hakushaku to Yousei!
And I even finished them last Sunday. So guess what I did this week? Yup, I started another show! I don’t know why, but it just happened, and you know what’s even more weird? I finished it. All 25 episodes in a week. So how exactly was I able to not finish like 3 eps of VKG and HtY over the holidays and yet I was able to finished a 25-ep show in a week, and a school-week, no less? Well, videogames were more of a distraction during the holidays but really, I think it’s a procrastination overdrive, just before exams. But that’d really just be a catastrophe overdrive, wouldn’t it?
Wait… why am I smiling…? I really need to get my priorities straight.
So what’s the new/done show? Well, if you’re smart, you can figure it out from the title, but probably not since that phrase is only mentioned once in the show. But I thought it was really cool lol.
Edit: And, realizing now after I have written this post, I’m gonna save my review for HtY and the new show for another day. Sorry! You’ll just have to wait in suspense…
But I wanna keep the title because it’s cool lol.
Oh and since I’ll be talking a show I’ve finished watching, there will be spoilers.
Getting busy now…
November 30, 2008 at 3:57 pm | In Anime, Everything Else, Recommendations and Reviews | Leave a CommentTags: shugo chara
Well, I am getting busy but that’s not the reason I didn’t post anything yesterday. I had and am still behind (wow… like that’s new) on tons of stuff so I didn’t have too much to talk about. But I did have some free time (and being behind in everything, HOW is that possible…?), so I thought, “What should I do?” Anyway, I narrowed my choices down to finished Shugo Chara or posting something even more random than usual. Evidently, I went with Shugo Chara.
And it was pretty awesome.
Ah… why is it that any character wearing a cross looks extra attractive? Hmm…
Twilit…

So yeah, I actually had a lot of work to do so I didn’t get a chance to talk about Twilight right after I watched it. I saw it yesterday, and well, let’s just say I laughed all the way through it, but it wasn’t supposed to be all that funny. I had a great time, but I “liked” it for the wrong reasons.
If I hadn’t read the book, I would have thought that was the most awkward movie ever. There were so many scenes that were not necessarily in continuity with the story (you wouldn’t know if you hadn’t read the book). And they took out so many like one-liners that were awesome! And there was NOT enough of the Cullens. And well…
More new shows?

Anyway, so I’m seeing tons of new trailers and stuff coming out for the next three games in the Kingdom Hearts series (but really two because Coded’s not peaking my interest right now… unless they decide to do what they did with Final Fantasy Agito XIII and put it on mobile and later PSP) but as I said before, I’m trying not to spoil myself too soon so I’m avoiding most of it. I couldn’t help but go take a look at what Xion looks like. And well, I can think of two people she looks like… (Hint: one has blue hair and the other one’s name means ocean) And we’ve been getting some names for the Fabula Nova Crystalis games of Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII, including Lightning, Sera/Sarah, and now Snow from FFXIII and Noctis and Stella from Versus (whose names mean “of the night” and “star” in latin). And it’s nice to see they’re keeping the weather-related names lol. So there’s been a lot of stuff going on! That’s always cool.
So… the subs for Hakushaku to Yousei came out recently, so I decided to take a look because it seemed interesting enough and it has a FABULOUS voice cast (Mizuki Nana, Midorikawa Hikaru and Miyano Mamoru). So anyway, set in 19th century England, this story is about a “fairy doctor”, or a fairy medium named Lydia Carlton and how she meets Edgar, who is a descendent of the leader of the Fairy Nation and needs to find the Sword of the Merrow to prove his lineage.
