12/3

Eureka seveN Ep. 32 - I must admit, this show really knows when to kick it up a notch. And with Ep. 32, it did just that. After a few episodes of character (and the Nirvash) building, it exploded again. This time, our friend Anemone squeezes back into the picture...and in the process gets a welcome-back gift in the form of an ass whooping, courtesy of the Nirvash typeZERO Spec2 (yes, it's Spec2 people). She didn't even have a fighting chance, and got bombed in a couple of minutes - well 1:30 (the length of DAYS, the song that played during that sequence). Too bad she got fuckeded up at a bad time, and now she might pay for it because of those stupid ass fucking kids. As for the man himself, Dewey, he trying to fuck the planet over more and in the process to kill us all. And for what? Only time will tell. But overall, a great episode.

Bleach Ep. 13 - Who knew that Orihime actually did something good for once? Who knew that Orihime had that kind of power? Who knew that this shit is gonna get better? Now this is what I'm talking about. It's starting to pick up, and it did at the right time. Of course, it's still open season for hallows, and still Ichigo and Ishida are still have their little own hunt-a-thon. But now, everyone is being thrown into the mix, including Orihime who somehow used those pins to summon a bunch of small people to protect her. I wish I had something like that...or maybe not because I don't have pins to hold my hair back because I'M A GUY. But anyways, it feels like Bleach is getting into gear.

Anemone = Ohio State? - Seriously. What does a crazy chick from Eureka seveN and a college football team have in common? Well, so far they've dominated the competition. For sweet Anemone, she's dominated the most recent [as] Grand Character Elimination, winning in a huge landslide. For Ohio State, they've beaten everyone else - except for Florida, who they will play in the National Championship game January 8th in Glendale, AZ. They are also fan favorites among anime fans and college football fans, respectively. And finally...well I can't think of anything else. But congrats to Anemone, because she's on top right now.

The Fix - Props to [as] for fucked up the Fix, then having the balls to leave it broken all Friday. You know, I wanted to watch Eureka seveN Friday, but no - Part 3 was all **bleep**ed up, and then the whole Fix crashed except for two shows. What gives [as]? Everything was working a week ago. Maybe it's one of those glitches that will be fixed over the week. But given the track record of this "beta" Fix so far, let's hope that they get down the final version soon.

Eureka seveN Ep. 33 - Well, about fucking time Holland really showed up after trying to show himself up. At least I give him props for really realizing his mistakes, and his willingness to start over. Compared to the Holland before (like Ep. 20), he's really evolved, even if he is one of the last characters to really show that next step in his character development. By the way, did anyone guess that the GekkoState WOULDN'T disband after he wanted to? There's 50 episodes, so it was really logical to think that they would of stuck it out...however, you never know; they could of really disbanned for a few episodes but then came back. And finally, that "Pacific State" photo that Stoner is developing. I'm guessing that it really fit with the episode title, but either than that, is there any reason why he called it "Pacific State?"

Bleach Ep. 13 - Meh, just more Ichigo/Ishida fighting, arguing, finding each other, and all that other stuff that happened that episode. At least things got interesting when 1) the Green-hat squad showed up and 2) when Ichigo released all his energy; that was some intense shit. Either than that, it's getting good, but I'm still waiting for the good stuff.

Eureka seveN Movie - If you haven't read about it on another message board somewhere on the internet, and you're a Eureka seveN fan, then odds are you've come across this rumor that a E7 movie is in the works. There is also a hidden Ep. 51 (although the one done at the Sony Anime Music Festival really doesn't count) and that they're supposed to go off of that. Personally, I feel that a movie is unreasonable. The reason why? There was a proper ending. It's not like the FMA movie, where at the end of FMA there were a ton of plothole questions. With the E7 endning, most of the plothole questions are closed up, leaving a movie only to find out where everyone is. In that case, a 10-15 (or 30) minute OVA documenting all the characters after the series.

Linksys - Fuck you Linksys. You give me a piece of shit wireless router that I have to fucking configure a million fucking times just so that I can get it right. I'm lucky that the DSL modem I have has wireless on it, or else I won't be typing this up (on my laptop at least). I may go back to it, but after I can set it up all by myself and I don't have to go call India or the Philippines or wherever they fucking have call centers. *sigh*
