Second Seasons!

… HAPPY MODE MEANS HAPPY.

Okay. So, a bunch of my favorite anime series are going to be animated into a second season!! Those include: The upcoming Nodame Cantabile: Paris Chapter; the rumored The Disappearance of Suzumiya Haruhi, which is not a second season but a whole new series by itself with the same characters (according to Newtype?); the leaked Full Metal Alchemist 2, name not confirmed; Tower of Druaga, which ended abruptly with lots of mystery left behind; and Shugo Chara, which would also be getting a second season (I think/hope?)

That’s all I can think of at the moment. :]

SRS?

… FMA2? New Anime based on manga, y/y?

… But if it’s BONES studio doing the production, I’m a little skeptical since they slaughtered ruined it the first time around. It’s hard not to get my hopes up when I’m all “OMGWTF” about this news. But I guess we’ll have to wait till winter to find out.

According to ANN and Random Curiosity.

Gurren Lagaan Parallel Works 5

…. Ouch. I don’t know what to say. I think my brain broke.

It was, uhm, unexpected. Like #@%GJASF-unexpected. I feel like they ruined a great song. Dx and… the characters.. OH GOD GIMMY. WHAT ARE YOU DOING

This really makes me want to crawl into a corner and cry. T__T

EDIT// This is so terrible, it’s hilarious

Gurren Lagaan: Parallel Works

… ♥ Whoever thought of the brilliant idea of using the TTGL OST to make AU!AMVs of the series is a genius. The first of the lot, found here is gorgeous. 8D I can’t wait for moar because this makes me fall in love all over again with Gurren Lagaan. <3~~

I’m only disappointed that there were hardly any mechas in this one. D: But I still hope that someone would do a highschool!AU!! XDD

EDWIN IS MAJOR CRACK-AND-WRENCH LOVE.

ASDASDAS. Study tiemz, lol.

Intro to Ragnarok and Chrona

Ahhh, Soul Eater.

There’s a mystery about Chrona. One that nobody really knows the answer to: Is Chrona a girl or a boy? She could be a girl because: her clothing looks something like a dress; she has semi-longish hair. Or.. He could be a boy because he says “Boku” — a normal way for guys to say “I”; when he first met Maka, he states that “He’s not very good at dealing with girls”. (or something along those lines).

There’s probably more evidence as well, but for now, it’s really hard to say. :9 Personally, I always thought he was a she.

But either way, the first actual arc to Soul Eater has begun. Medusa’s infiltrated Shibusen, Chrona is aiming become the Demon God (Kishin), Ragnarok is known as the demon sword. :3 Mymy. And then.. Next episode is about the Excalibur. XDDD I’m not really sure why that’s even there in the manga . It’s like manga-filler, because it doesn’t exactly relate to the main plot at all… I think.

… cry. D: THE STAGE IS SET. ♥

GREELIN. XD I think I prefer Greedling, though.
Ed’s the only normal person.. XD
Devil Nest v2.0
“I’m not short! I just live in a big world!” … Arakawa, I love you. XD
Winry’s earrings.. ♥
Sneaking around to spread the information…~ 8D
and lastly…
THE PROMISED DAY IS COMING. ; ;

oh god. I can’t even imagine how this series will end. I will just have to keep with the flow.

…and is it just me, or has Arakawa’s artwork changed a little again? I assume she’s probably rushed, but it’s okay because it still looks great most of the time.

MUKYA–!!

Nodame: Paris Chapter

Premiere: October, ‘08.

Will be loved and looked forward to. 8D
I’m pretty sure I fell deeper in love with classical music thanks to Nodame. While the art isn’t what I’m normally use to, I still love it because the plot is absolutely fantastic. XD

Translation: READ IT, … Chubi.

Aria’s last episode

So, while I’m angsting about fma, I’ll write about Aria, as I finished it rather recently ago.

The animation quality improved, though I find that I prefer the older artwork more than the newer version but it’s still all eye candy, I suppose.

I felt the last episode, episode 13, was too revolved around Alicia, rather than Akari; because, I mean, it’s supposed to be Akari’s story, after all. It really felt like Alicia stole the spotlight. I’m pretty sure they rushed the last episode.

Also, Ai. … I can’t say I’ve liked her. She was a brat in the beginning, then she turns into some cheesy little girl, and finally into a Pair for Aria Company. :[ Her character at the end of the series was too much like Akari. Also, their conversation at the end makes it seem as if their relationship weren’t as close. Say for instance, would Ai really blush from embarrassment simply because of Akari’s stare? :/ I don’t really think so, but maybe that’s just my opinion. D:

Regardless, I find it cute that Akari said the same thing that Alicia said. ;A; “I’m just a little bit happy, that’s all *chuckle/smile*” But even if she says that, Aika’s still my favorite out of the three main. (I could’ve sworn her prima-name was “Rozen Maiden” though, it sounds weird as “Rozen Queen”. :B)

Overall, it was a cute series. I’m glad I watched it. It was carefree, Venetian (♥), and a simple day-to-day kind of anime. XD

One last note: Al looks weird tall. Hahaha.

Sitting, Waiting

The life of a fangirl.

I’ve been waiting for 83. D: It’s out in Japan now. There’s been spoilers and summary leaks on the internet… So where on Earth is the chapter?! Dx

EDIT// It’s out!! Only RAW so far, but that’s okay. @.@ I ♥ Ed so much. He’s absolutely stands for his beliefs. ;^; ..but he’s also incredibly short. XD He’s shorter than Ling by a head!! Hahaha, oh well. Can’t wait for scanlation? :3
