The Special-ness is Overwhelming Me.

I've discovered that my blog has been viewed. . . twice since its creation :D I feel so popular >w<


So, my discussion today: Prince of Tennis, What the Heck. *Ahem*


Somehow, I randomly decided to start reading this manga last night. I know that it's popular, so I thought, why not?


Actually, the truth is, I saw Seto's hair when he played Kikumaru in Tenimyu and thought, *wow, I really want to read a manga with a character in it who has hair like that!*



. . . . . .



On another subject, it seems that the manga endings in Shonen Jump this week were pretty dramatic. At least the faces were- particularly in the very last panels of a few. . .


Such as KHR:



One Piece (can someone please tell me who the heck this is? Did Robin become a mobster??):



But, the one that wins, most definitely, this week is Fairy Tale:




Um. . . wow. Gerard is special.


But, yeah, I have to say, it's about time they gave Hibari some face time. Kakkoii, ne? ^_^


Well, I'm done for today :)


I have to go read some more PoT. Though, I kind of feel like I'm reading Bleach or something because these tennis players are in severe battle mode. It's kind of scary.


>_<

Um. . . Wow.

So, I'm pretty excited.


I happened to stumble upon a Destiny's Play music video, which I didn't even know existed. I watched it and first I thought LOLWTHeck. Then my eyes went kind of glassy and I reached toward the screen, while slowly chanting, "...must...edit..."



Not really.


But, I ended up downloading it anyway and messed around with it in FCE. It took me awhile to get serious because I kept getting distracted by the totally out-of-character, non-Seto-kun, completely deranged facial expressions Setomaru made while singing :D


Needless to say, being able to stop at random frames was quite entertaining.


But, I learned a lot about FCE while doing this and it took a lot of patience (once I became serious^_^). I think my videos from now on will definitely be a step up in quality.



Though, it took years to get a decent looking video onto the internet; it's so frustrating!! Even the one on veoh is a definite step-down as far as video quality goes :( But, I'm thankful that I got it to look as good as it does. . . It could have been a lot worse ^_^;


So, here it is! Please enjoy! :)

Wallpaper Time!

I'm on episode 19 of KRK and I'm still enjoying it :) Apparently, Wataru has a bad habit of making friends with people who just so happen to be fangai. Yeah. Poor Wataru.


Though, I'm glad he made one good friend who's not a monster. No, instead he's a rock musician ^_^


When Wataru sang I lol'd :D


Anyway, I spent some time today making an amazing desktop picture and I thought I would share it with you! Yay! It's a KRK wallpaper (of course) and it's filled with Wataru/Seto Koji- so if you've been wanting a KRK or a Setomaru desktop pic, here you go.


There are two choices. . . one is more. . . bluish than the other ^_^;


I worked hard on these, so if you decide to use one, please leave a comment!

Kamen Rider 2008!

Because I've finished watching Kamen Rider Den-o, it's time to move onto Kiva. And I have ^_^. I started watching the first episode and then stopped because it seemed kind of creepy. . .


After that, I tried to watch Kamen Rider Hibiki, but I couldn't be patient enough to watch past the second episode. I really liked the musical opening of Hibiki; it was definitely made of win, but it was all downhill from there. I think it was the form of the monsters that got me. They made REALLY annoying noises and I found the battle scenes were too hard to follow. Yeah, it was irritating.


So, I went back to Kiva, fell in love with Wataru when he held up the "gomen" sign, and have been watching it ever since.


I'm glad that this rider was different than I expected. When I read about it, it seemed that the monsters- fangaia, fangai, fangire, whatever you want to call them- were modeled after vampires, and that made me NOT want to watch it.


Me + blood = link


Here's the first episode of Kamen Rider Kiva, because it's awesome (though, the opening music is a bit grating ^_^; ). Can you spot Masao from Hanazakari no Kimitachi e? Mahahaha I'm creeped out :D

Though, One Piece Definitely Wins Over Bleach.

Well, I finished and uploaded my newest One Piece AMV... I'm really happy with how it turned out! The video quality on youtube makes me sad, however, so I'm looking for some other sites to publish to as well :D





You can watch my video here.


I'm continuing to ink and catch up with old comic sketches. It's kind of depressing because I just want to fix everything wrong with my old drawings before inking... but that would be a big pain, so I restrain myself >_<... Below is one I just finished inking in PS and there's a sequel to this one- pt. 2 is here. Or you could click on my banner to get to my gallery :)


Beth meets Ulquiorra and Grimmjow, from Bleach. Yay. BTW, after reading the most recent chapter of Bleach, I'm really excited for next week! Yes, I'm an Ulquiorra fan :D I can't believe he's actually pondering the feeling of friendship ^_^

Some New Links For You

Yay, my second entry! I've been restoring some old comics I've done and uploading them to photobucket. If you click on my (brand new beautiful) banner on the bottom of my post, it should take you to my album (hopefully :D). You can also click to get to my youtube account. . . but most likely, the way you found this blog is from there anyway. If I keep working diligently, then new comics should be uploaded regularly. I may or may not post them here first. . .


I'm hoping to start a new AMV tomorrow. This time, One Piece (finally)! The song is... well, you'll see. It's been done before, but not too many times :)


Goodnight! <3

Aha!

Ahaha, so I may be pretty adept with technology when it comes to software like PS or FCE. . . but making a web page is a little different ^_^;;.

I promised myself before I started this thing that I wouldn't spam people's lives away by writing down reams of. . . well, unnecessary things. So, if you're into Japanese culture- whether it be the language, manga, anime, or drama, I hope you can find some enjoyable posts right here.

You may find reviews, comics, fan-art, desktop themes, or videos for your viewing pleasure (depending on how I feel when I post :D). I'm an artist, so most of what you will find WILL be original- so, please enjoy yourselves!

Ah! To start off, my new video! I posted it to youtube a couple of days ago. If you are a Kamen Rider Den-o fan, I highly recommend it! :)
