I did something to my stomach, but I'm still not sure what. Whatever it is, it's annoying. :I
So I have two volumes of Yokaiden I plowed through (I really want the rest!!!) by Nina Matsumoto, aka spacecoyote, aka the person who did the popular webcomic Saturnalia. I wasn't hooked by the first volume, but it was charming and good enough for me to continue, but, haha, the second ended in a cliffhanger and I'm totally pumped for the next!
I also have the third volume of tactics done by the much better translators at Tokyopop (as opposed to ADV, who couldn't even edit it well), and...well, it's nothing spectacular; I preferred the last two volumes in spite of the bad translation. Even still, I plan on continuing the series because Kantarou is just that cool. I seem to have a thing for the lazy tactician type characters. And after reading them and rereading chunks of Houshin Engi, I've realized that I tend to like series with youkai in it. Strange, considering I've never been a huge monster or horror fan, but...OH WELL.
And so I was inspired to pick up RO again (the free server since I'm a cheap-butt) because I am being mostly unproductive again and I feel semi-accomplished when I do something there. And I really like their monsters. AndsupersecretlyreallywantahumanoidpetthereeventhoughtamingisreallyhardAHEM. The cutesy and dark stuff there and the humongo world really gets to me in a good way, but argh, too much grinding and gold digging. I am not made for MMOs. orz;;;;
My life post-exciting things that happened to me. :S As much as I'd like to promise that CF starts this summer, no guarantees from me. But I'll do my best! And I'll get my fall semester down once I get my AP score to see if I'm going to retake a semester of calc. Wheee.
