Shigofumi 11, oh god. One more episode left. I wonder how they're going to finish this off with a fulfilling ending, since it looks like they're going to introduce another episode as well. I hope they don't pull a crap ending like Akagi, at the very least. Fucking awesome anime ruined by a half-assed ending.

Waiting on Kaiji 24 atm, it looks like it'll be out in a few days at the rate Triad is releasing recently. But they're going to go back to releasing new episodes every two weeks again, I know it. >:| TISSUE BOX RAFFLE, THOUGH, FUCK YEAH. THIS BOX IS AWESOME.

Speaking of Kaiji, I-I now have a soft spot for Mikoko. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN. Some anon on /fkmt/ released a translation of some of the pages with her in it from part 2, and oh god they're so lol worthy. PERO PERO PERO

...So yeah, I like her for the comic relief now. I just thought she was kind of creepy-lookin' when I saw her first, and I RAGED like every other Kaijifag when I saw her clinging to mai moe waifu, but I.. crap, I kind of like her now. lol. I still don't like the pairing though. :| KAIJI/SAHARA LOL

I.. I bought some more books, they should be here in a week or two. Socrates in Love, Calling You, and Be With You. I was going to buy Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World as well, but since it's in stock in some of the B&N's around here (Boynton, I can probably go when I go to Giselle's house), I decided to go for the more obscure novels that I can't find around here. Also waiting on Ballad of a Shinigami to come in stock, as well as Kino no Tabi volume 2 to be released. Still no news about it yet. :|

I need some more books to read. I feel like a total weeaboo only reading Japanese translated novels, but there really isn't anything I'm interested in right now. Eoin Colfer (epic fucking troll) completely fucked up on Artemis Fowl, so I have no interest in any of the books beyond 4 (and I've read them all several times), and most/all teen literature is pretty crappy. I tried picking around in the adult fiction section, but there really wasn't anything that looked too interesting. There was this one book that I wanted to read about some.. newspaper woman working in India, but I can't remember what it's called anymore. I'll know what it is by the cover, though.

Been playing P3 for most of this week, though I didn't get to play last night or tonight. Staying home tomorrow, though, so I'll be able to play for pretty much the entire day, save for piano lessons in the afternoon. The game's been great so far, though Strega only just recently showed up -- it's kind of sad that I have to play pretty far into the game to even get some plot development, but boosting social links and finishing quests is fine with me. I just wish it wasn't so annoying to max the social links. I'll follow a guide for it when I get FES, since I definitely won't be able to max them all out on this playthrough. The characters are enjoyable though, and so are the scenarios during the full moons, so I'm content with playing right now. I-I really want to get to November something in the game soon though, so I can work on that social link for Mitsuru lol. ;-;

I've been wanting to play Tales of the Abyss again, but Giselle has it right now, lol. She's around the beginning of the game, maybe 12 or so hours in, so I won't be expecting to get it back for a few weeks unless she plays nonstop on weekdays and weekends. D: Took me a week to beat it over winter break playing almost nonstop, so I probably won't get it back in a week or two. I want to play it though, just to make Luke run around his mansion in the towel boy costume like a faggot. And so that I can get the Abyss Ranger costumes which I haven't gotten yet for some god-forsaken reason. But uh, fun game is fun and I'm still in love with it, jesus christ. Must cosplay moar TotA. I'll just.. satisfy myself by making fun of Luke and Jade if she plays it when I go over to her house. >:

But yeah, I'm hoping to get Persona 3 done in a week or so. I could probably get around 4 or 5 months in if I play over the weekend, and then one month for every weekday. I don't have that long to play, anyway, I think the game only goes out to December or January something before it skips to January 31. I'm in August right now, so that's 4 months until December.

I don't remember what else I was going to write about now. Getting some stuff for Chrome, Ken/Kenji, and Anise (lol redo again) on Saturday, hoping it doesn't cost too much because I'm still trying to save up for FES and The World Ends With You. I can afford to wait for Arcana Heart, Baroque, Sword of Rondo, and a buttload of other games that I want to get, but not FES and Subarashi Kono Sekai. D: I might get Luminous Arc when I'm done with Etrian Odyssey, or just to play when I get bored of GRINDAN so much, but that's all I'm planning to get atm unless I somehow manage to make enough money to get more games than that.

Also, I'm cosplaying as Yukari with Giselle to the FES/Subarashi Kono Sekai release on April 22, lol. She's going as Minato. Since it'll be on a Tuesday, if we can't make it on the release date then we'll be going on the Saturday right after. It'll look so.. gay. Oh god. I doubt we'll be able to bring evokers or the joke weapons that they get in the game, but we'll be there in the normal outfits and SEES armbands and.. oh wow. This will be great.

While I'm still on the subject of Persona, HOLY SHIT PERSONA 4. The trailer for it looks amazing, though I want my kawaii desu ne Elizabeth back. Not sure what the new one is called, but she's not as moe as my Elizabeth from P3. ;_; I like the new character designs, though I'm not as fond of the new Mitsuru. The new Junpei looks awesome, though.

The only thing I don't like about the game so far is the.. penis protector on the Main Character's persona, o lol. That's just kind of odd. But uh, yeah. The dungeon's inside a TV and you fight on the sets a-and it's a murder mystery this time, oh god. I'm not as fond of the plot as P3's, but it still sounds really fun.

It should be coming out in July for Japan, so I'm expecting to wait at least a year to get it here. >: At least I'll have a few other games to amuse me.

O mai, Harvest Moon DS Cute is coming out in 5 days. Time to track down a MFoMT game cartridge so I can squeal over Doctor again. :D I HOPE I CAN FIND ONE AT GAMESTOP, SHIT
