If the spoilers are to believed I- WHAT?!

( SPOILERS )

Kishimoto, why must you make me lose hope in this series once more. Dammit!

My LOVE for Eyeshield 21 cannot be textually rendered! It is the one series that brings me constant and consistent joy without falling into a deep, black hole of major suckage. Just finished reading chapter 322, and OMFG! Just OMFG!!!! ( Match Spoilers )

Have caught up to Katekyō Hitman Reborn!, just finished reading chapter 235… um, ( Character appearance spoilers ) I have also come to the realisation I don’t actually have ANY idea how the rings or the boxes work. Just absolutely none; every time they attempt to explain my eyes GLAZE over and my brain shut down. As far I’m concerned the rings and boxes are elementally aligned MAGICAL boxes that does MAGICAL things. This is very strange for me as I’m one of those really annoying nit-picker shounen-readers who expect internal consistency when it comes to the powers. I think this says a great deal about what I think of this series as a whole.

Read 10 volumes of Ookiku Furikabutte; SPORTS manga, you never fail me. While I quite enjoy the series, I do admit the main character Mihashi have NOT endeared himself to me in any way, shape or form. However, ABE! I LOVE you ABE! I’m unsure whether I’ll follow this series as there just isn’t enough going one with Mihashi to keep me interested. Oh, well.

Watched several Jonas Brothers interviews and performances… um, I think Korean boybands have spoiled me completely. I went into the interviews expecting some MAJOR pretty, major talent, some awesome personality traits and enough FANSERICE to make the world IMPLODE. I was sadly disappointed… while Joe is pretty and quite amusing I find Nick (?) and Kevin (?) rather meh. Actually that is not the complete truth; I find Kevin hilarious but not that physically attractive, and while I think Nick have potential I find him trying too hard to be what he isn’t for me to be that interested. So, it is with much regret that I must let go of a potential fandom full of awesome crackness.

( My head hurt, I forgot how much of a mind fuck this series can be. Gods, they make you work for the plot. AKA What I think is going on... some information are revealed and a few things finally click. )

I think I have it right. My brain really hurt; this is what happens when I don’t read a series for over 3 years, and for the life of me I can’t remember how volume 10 ended. Hell, I don’t even remember whether I read volume 10. I need this series to have some sort of end that doesn’t make me want to slit my own wrists or brain myself with a desk due to the complete and utter mind fuck it is.

I need an icon of Tetora or Amamiya Kazuhiko, or hell even Shinji Nishizono will do... the one 20 odd years ago, not the scary dude of now.

So, I have read approximately 250 chapters of Air Gear during a time span of 3 days (this is amongst doing work, soclialising, and watching a copious amount of Super Junior M clips. Sleep is for the weak). And OMFG! I LOVES Air Gear, it is so COMPLETELY insane and over the top, and just so pretty, AND I went through several Aizen-ala-Bleach-like trauma during my mainlining of the series.

There are many points during the series that my brain went "Oh!Greato-sama, you are showing your issues again." Yes, at times I get flashes of Tenjou Tenge, but I enjoy Air Gear much more. Don't get me wrong AG has its share of psychopaths with sadomasochistic tendencies, but its main characters off set the sociopathic tendencies by being really awesome. It is hard to explain but there is this level of energy and almost innocence that TT just didn't have.

( where the spoilers comes into it )

I'm SO HORRIBLY addicted to this series it is kind of insane.

ETA: So, does anyone have a copy of the following anime series?
- Air Gear
- Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann

The former because I'm curious, the latter because despite the fact I have only seen 2 episodes of this series I am very curious.

Nearly a full bottle of red wine, youtube and chocolate – I’m almost feeling human.

Also, Orlando Bloom is starting to look appealing. I blame the alcohol. I cannot believe he's 30, I mean 30. Gods, I wish I'll look that good when I'm 30. Oh, who am I kidding, I never looked that good to begin with.

In addition, Slam Dunk - amei, years ago you tried explaining Inoue Takehiko's style to me; the way that he drew movement, how he manages to convey fluidity on paper. At the time I was not impressed, I am VERY VERY VERY impressed now. OMFG! Yes, have read all of Slam Dunk, it is an awesome series. However, as I managed to mainline all of 30+ volumes of it within 2 days awhile back everything is a bit blurred.

Now I go to drink some wine and do some more work.

ETA: Orlando Bloom: It's like a lightsaber, but on fire, you know?

For the past few days I have been looking really hot. I call it the Art of wearing Complementary Clothing AKA Black is good for you! In addition, the boots adds a couple of inches to me, which doesn’t hurt (though the actual pain it causes is kind of distracting and a bit of a minus to the way I look).

Things of interest: watched the first season of Grey’s Anatomy. I really like this show; intelligent, sexy and hilarious. Furthermore, one of the few shows on television that can actually be considered to be ‘multicultural’, these days it still surprises me to see more than 3 people of colour (playing major roles) on any main stream television series. Which leads to my next question; why the hells haven’t the f-list picked up on the series yet? The series is a thing of fluffy marshmallow and alcohol, i.e., all the good stuff in life.

Have also made nekomancy watch King Arthur for the slash subtext, ‘cos you know, I’m kind of shallow that way. Besides, it is really hard to ignore the slash subtext, and the cat does agree with me (after a certain point in the film) on some of the, um, obvious signs.

Otherwise, read Eyeshield 21 up to volume 19, and all I can say is; OMFG! AGHHHHH!!! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?! ARGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!! MORE! NEED MORE! WHY ISN’T THERE MORE!? OMFG! ARRRGHHHH! MORE! MORE! MORE! MORE! HIRUMA!!!! *FANGIRL SQUEE*.

Feel as if I'm gnawing on my own liver.

There was Uni work today, but otherwise re-read bits of Eyeshield 21 (match against the NASA Aliens.) Will blog about it when I can actually form some sort of coherent thought beyond ‘Hiruma is COOL!’ or 'Sena as Eyeshield is AWESOME!' and you know, the feeling of gnawing on my own liver.

There need to be more JoJo fanfiction. Someone need to write post part 3 fanfiction about Jotaro going back to Japan and informing ( ”spoilers” ), and about Jotaro’s choice of doing his thesis on STAR FISH! This still make me snicker, oh gods, Araki-sensei, why STAR FISH?! (I suspect it is something retarded like; it had to be a star fish because of its SHAPE!) BTW: when I say there need to be more fanfiction, what I really mean is that petronia should be slaving away in front of her computer fulfilling my JoJo needs XP.

Joseph in part 4 makes me highly uncomfortable (more like a bunch of highly mixed signals in my brain that refuses to get unmixed). It is entirely a personal thing.

My brain has dead a stunningly painful death, which is bad because if I fail one more mid-semester I am going to write this whole damn semester off. On the other hand I am still finding time colouring big-assed manga images of JoJo part 2. I have mad love for Caesar and Joseph, and it just seems to be getting worse as time goes by. Sometime in the next week I shall be uploading much coloured JoJo images for people to use because the JoJo love need to be spread (like an highly infectious disease or is that virus… what is the difference anyway?).

Half way through part 2 of JoJo. OMFG!!!!!!!! WTF?!!!!!!!

Jack the Ripper?! Muscles, so much muscles, and Aztec Vampires!!! I wish I had some of those ornaments. End of part 1 made me all sad and mopey. Need free time to read more, need to read more. Brain so dead at the moment, I had forgotten how hard it was to survive on 3 hours of sleep when you need to deliver speeches, count money and basically be all mature and not fun. But omfg! JoJo is so cool, oh so cool. Need more.

ETA: CAESAR! Why didn't anyone WARN me?! *cries*
ETA 2: Somewhere between volume 5 and volume 6 my brain did a complete 180. It came to the realisation that the art work for JOJO is the epitome of perfection and it is perfectly all right to measure all other manga art work against for future reference. I think it was also at that point that my brain fell into a field of acceptance. That is, I'll believe anything the series tell me, ANYTHING.
ETA 3: Araki is ruthless with his characters... *CRIES*
