Welcome To My World

Desert Punk

2009-11-15T07:25:57Z

My Rating: R, for ruff language and a perverted main character.
Over all score 10/10

While I enjoyed Desert Punk, some people will be put off by the crude hummer, and many aspects of Usune Masatoshi personality.

Based on the manga series by, Usune Masatoshi, Desert Punk is a post apocalyptic manga series set in the Great Kanto Desert. In the Grate Kanto Desert, you have to do whatever it takes to stay alive. No one seems to know this best is Kanta Mizuno aka, Demon of the Desert.
Kanta is a foul mouthed Sunabozu, who is driven by greed and breasts, both of these things seem to attract nothing but trouble for him. But at the end of the day there doesn’t seem to be a job that he won’t take. His love of breasts also leads him to take an apprentice, Taiko Koizumi.
Koizumi becomes Kanta’s apprentice, after Kanta defeats her master, Shimmer Sniper. From that moment on Kanta and Taiko seem inseparable. In the beginning Taiko is only using Kanta to achieve her goal of becoming a power babe. Dring her time training under Kanta, Taiko learns that if she wants to reach her goal that she has to pace her self and work hard.
The two of them encounter and overcome many difficult situations together, including their dealings with the backstabbing Junko Asagiri and the Underground Mercenaries. The Underground Mercenaries seek to over throw the government and create a peaceful world, or so they say.

Its another Saturday night and I am home alone. Not much has been going on over the past few weeks, I guess I am just writing this, so the people who might read my L.J. will know that I am not dead.

Grandma is having surgery, Braking off a toxic friendship, and at least one other thing.

2009-08-06T18:37:21Z

So after not posting for several months or so I am back. Part of the reason I haven’t been posting a lot has been do to stress.

For one thing my Grandpa Storm passed away, I was sick when this happened so I wasn’t able to be there for him. Also my Grandma Storm is not in a nursing or assisted living home, unlike my Grandma Betty, she is loving it!

However Grandma Storm has been having her share of problems. About a month ago, grandma Strom fell and developed a hard cyst below her knee cap. One of my aunts took her to the doctor to have it looked at and the doctor told her to leave it alone. A few days passed and the cyst bursts, as a result grandma has required at least one surgery, and will be having a second one this weekend. Its at times like this, that I am reminded exactly how much I dislike some doctors and wish that my relatives would uses some commonsense. If I had been there, I would have asked the doctor to take a sample from the cyst and do something, before the situation got worse. I wish that I was able to see grandma this weekend, but I have to work tonight and on Friday. So unless something goes horribly wrong, with grandma’s surgery, I will not be rushing down to see her this week.

Also my mom asked me to get some time off, to visit my aunt on her birth day. However mom, hasn’t asked my aunt if she is going to be available during that time. So I am left wondering what my mom was thinking, yes get me all exited about a chants to see my aunt and cheek out some of my favorite places. Its times like this when wonder if my mom is still trying to do too much?

I am in the process of braking off a friendship with an emotional vampire. I have tried to empathies with her, but she doesn’t seem to be able to understand that. Also when we went out to eat recently, not only did I have to pay, but I was also expected to leave a tip. Our waitress was vary good to us, so I wanted to leave a $5 tip. That and I only had a 1, 5s, and 10s available. So I paid for the meal and was and took out a 5 to pay the tip. My so-called friend went nuts, she took the reseat and wrote in a $2 tip. In my mind she had gotten the money out of thin air, so when we left for the car I was confused and hurt. My so-called friend told me that she was the only one who had the right to feel hurt. I then attempted to tell her that I am dyslexic and don’t always understand simple competes that other people understand.

She didn’t want to hear any of it and we got into a fight. I asked her to take me home, knowing that I might lose my temper. A few days earlier I had lost my temper in front of her, on that day she had told me that she slaps people who yell at her. However on the day of the fight she asked me if I though she would slap someone, out of fear I said no. I know she doesn’t like it when people lie to her, I don’t like lying either, but I was so afraid. At some point in the conversation she expected everything between us to be cool and I had to lie again and tell her it was. However things where far from cool, I had reached my braking point.

After words we where going to pick up a movie, I wanted to see The Knowing. But instead of her picking out one movie she picked out 3 and 2 video games for the Nintendo Wii. I was expected to pay for all of the above, however since she had an out standing fee at the video store, I refused to pay. We went back to her apartment, this time she picked up some quarters, since she still wanted to get a game along with the movie. I don’t know how much of the game the quarters covered, however this time she picked up the movie New in Town and I still had to pay. In the end it was late and there wasn’t time to watch the movie, because she wanted me to help her pack for a camping trip, she was going on with some other friends.

I helped her pack and she took me home, with the understanding that we would get to gather, once she was back from her trip and watch the movie. I spent the next few week felling like garbage, but thankfully not suicidal. I was also too afraid to pick up the phone when she called me, after all I wasn’t ready to talk to her and I didn’t want to end up lying again. Thankfully my consoler and my mom, have been vary helpful and supportive of my chose, not to see this particular person again. Both of them understand why I don’t want to see her or talk to her. My mom is even going to be volunteering at the zoo as a back up for me, since said ex-friend is also working there. However she doesn’t know that I don’t want to be friends anymore, that I am tired of being used both emotionally and for money.

I really hate being used and having to brake off friendships. I have forgiven both of them, but I haven’t told either of them yet. I just don’t see the point in baring a grudge, no mater how justified it might seem.

I have also been checking out some new pod casts, and will hopefully be posting some podcast reviews soon. As for anime and my other hobby’s they have been suffering because of emotional problems connected to my now ex-friend, but will hopefully be getting back on track vary soon.

I also have to study for a test, related to the volunteer work, I want to do at the Red River Zoo! However I am having motivation issues and often find myself, doing anything but studying. Its almost as if I have to dangle a caret in front of myself in order to accomplish anything.

Home and probably sick

2009-05-14T00:09:59Z

I had to skip work today and I might not be going to work tomorrow. I have spent just about the hole day doing almost nothing, I know I am physically tired , but one can only play on WebKinz for so long. At least my aunt is coming over tonight, so I should have someone to talk to. ^_^

Abought Gantz

2009-04-27T02:52:09Z

Do to some explicit content in episodes 15 and 16, I have dropped Gants. I am vary disappointed by this, because I was enjoying the anime, but I don’t like it when sexual material is shown on screen. So the review for this show, have been candled.

2009-04-20T19:27:47Z

If you want something done do it yourself.

So mom and dad moved my little TV down stares, instead of lugging down the big TV. My TV lived down stares from the time when me and my sister where evacuated last month up until now. I don’t know why, but today I decided that enough was enough and moved my TV and the interest connection myself.

So now I am two tired to do anything, except surf the web, play games on Gaiaonline.com , listen to podcasts up date my bogs. Yes I have other blogs that I up date.

The Ramblings of an Aspiring Writer http://anaspiringwriter.wordpress.com/

Not My Podcast http://notmypodcast.wordpress.com/

I decided to brake it down like this, because this blog is primarily for anime reviews and my life.

I might make third blood though word press for anime reviews. Only so I can better keep track of what I am doing or something, but I am not sure yet.

Up Date

2009-04-15T04:58:04Z

Do to the flood and distractions during the evacuations, my anime viewing was put on hold. But now that things have calmed down I am back to my geeky ways. The month of the living box set is now on hold, do to all of the anime that I have started watching.

Astro Boy- a smart and cute anime, a grate gateway drug for the kids.

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - FMA but it doesn’t look half as good. This anime is coming out online though FUNimation

Gantz - 26 episodes, incredibly messed up this show isn’t for everyone

Jigoku Shoujo Matsuyama - still coming out in Japan, so I can only watch it as the fan subs become available.

Key the Metal Idol - 14 episode OVA

Up Date

2009-04-02T17:06:20Z

I have been hanging out here in Minnesota, days my and my little sister have been handing out with our aunt, uncle. We have been eating out a lot and going to movie, its been wild. But soon I will be getting back into the swing of things, in my own home town. Its kind of said to be leaving so soon, I mean they have two dogs here that I love. Also I don’t get out here to spend time with my aunt and uncle vary often, pulse their daughter is going to collage here in Minnesota.
Its kind of said that my sister and me have to go back to the Red River Valley so soon. I know its my home and all, but it feels so good to be out here. When I am with my aunt and uncle I can loosen up and really be myself. I don’t have to tone it down for anyone and I can really feel alive. But at home I can’t be loud or even a little crazy, every one tells me that I am being too silly. But here we laugh at the table and being a little crazy is ok.
Don’t get me wrong I do want to go home, but its not easy being a doctors daughter. Everything at home has to be calm and quiet when dad is home, but I do miss my dad and my mom. Its just a different way of living, even though I have never gotten used to it. I mean, I have a naturally lode voce and I love to laugh and have fun and get a little lode from time to time.
But I do want to get back to work soon and see all of my friends again. Well love it or hate it you can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family. I love my family and friends and wouldn’t want it any other way.

Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase

2009-03-26T17:19:20Z

(( http://distribuidoranime.spaces.live.com/ Distribuidor de Anime ))

PG-13

4/5

Adapted form the manga by Keitarō Arima, Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase is the story of the vampire girl Hazuki, a photographer Kohei Morioka, and the Morioka family. Over the cores of the anime a well guarded secret about Hazuki comes to light, amidst a back drop of some grate battles, sacrifice, and laughter.

I have seen so beautifully drawn and animated anime, but every now and then I come across something like, Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase. The art is rich and gives you the feeling of being in the action along with Hazuki, her friends and enemies.

What the anime failed at was getting me attached to the characters. I am looking foreword to seeing if the bonds between the characters are stronger and more believable, in the manga.

There is also Hazuki’s father, who is brought up many times, but never shows up in the anime. I am hoping that he is in the manga. I just can’t being myself to believe that he wouldn’t step in, after some particular events in the last few episodes of the anime.

The DVD box set also comes with an OVA, has vary little to do with the anime, aside from having the same characters. Over all it was a light hearted romp that forced, this Otaku to further suspend disbelief and enjoy the fun.

You can buy Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase at http://www.funimation.com/moonphase/

Atomic Skunk: binary scenes

2009-03-24T21:27:51Z

Erie and relaxing Atomic Skunk, will lull you into a world of its own making.

Form this website http://atomicskunk.com/ you can listen to all 8 tracks of the CD for free, download the Album, share the CD, or by it. There is also contact information on the sight so if you want to write your own review for the CD it is vary easy to tell the CD artist.

What’s’ coming up

2009-03-21T16:54:12Z

I am not done watching saiyuki yet, but the first OVA is vary hard to find. I hope they carry the OVAs at Comic Junction http://www.yelp.com/biz/comic-junction-fargo . Now for the fun part, its not easy for me to get to places like this since I am not able to drive.

I am going to be reviewing the anime Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase, witch is based on a manga of the same name by Keitarō Arima.

I will also be watching Gants and continuing my viewing of Jigoku Shoujo season three

And a CD called Atomic Skunk, as far as I know this CD can only be found online at this time.

Also next Month will kick off Night or Day, of the living box set. Basically I will be going though every anime box set and movie that I own. After that I will most likely look at some of the anime that Funimation has uploaded onto the web legitimately.

Saiyuki Seasons 1 - 3

2009-03-19T17:28:06Z

My Rating: PG-13 for some strong language and action violent

Saiyuki - 5 bullets out of 5
Siyuki Reload - 5 bullets out of 5
Siyuki Reload Gunlock 4 bullets out of 5

The Sanzo Party

Loosely based Chinese Novel, “Originally published anonymously in the 1590s during the Ming Dynasty.” ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey_to_the_West 03/19/09) Both the Saiyuki anime and Manga tell the story of the Sanzo Party as they journey west to stop the experiments to revive the demon Gyumao, witch are sending off negative waves that are cosign Demons to go bizerkand kill humans, and restore the peace in Sangria.

Along the way the Sanzo Party encounters many examples of how, the experiments to revive Gyumao are effecting both humans and demons like. From the kind hearted demon Rumpa to the fanatical and tragic Hazel.

There isn’t anything about the first three season of Saiyuki that I don’t love. The art is grate, nothing too special but it is what it is and dose what it needs to do. The music on the other hand is awesome and appropriate to the story line.

I still have about two OVAs to watch in order to find out what happens. There is also a prequel, that takes a look at the Sanzo Party before their journey to the west begins. I for one am looking foreword to finding out how the anime ends and finding an English translation of the Chinese Novel that inspired the anime.

Remembering 1997 and bracing for another possible flood year in 2009

2009-03-13T16:27:06Z

In the year 1997 and the years before, snow would fall, but it wouldn’t stick around for vary long. Now I am looking out at a seemly endless blanket of while, broken only by roads, sidewalks, driveway, and roof tops. Its so beautiful, but this late in the year its the kind of beauty has the potential to become both deadly and destructive.

In 1997, my neighborhood was abandoned by the city of Fargo. We where completely depended on each other and volunteers. I still have memories of filling sandbags and the volunteers who helped me and my neighbors save our homes. I also remember my mom sending me and my little sister to stay with our aunt in Minnesota for part of the flood year.

I though we had it ruff in my home town, then I saw images of Grand Forks North Dakota, on the news. Some of the people of Grand Forks had to admit defeat before they could save parts of their city. I guess that hit home for me, because I used to live there and for all I knew my old school, was some where under all of that water.

fast-forward to this morning, I just dragged myself out of bed to grab a bite before work. My mom is on the phone with my brother talking about how the flooding this year could be worse then it was in 1997! I mad a small grunting noise not fully tacking in the situation, but fully remembering what the flooding was like during my child hood in 1997.

If the flooding forecast is correct I hope that people flock to Fargo, Moorhead, and other places that will be in need. There are so many of us, like myself, who have never forgotten the debt we owe to everyone who has helped us in the past. And while we might never be able to repay them with money, we hope to repay them with the same kindness they have shown us.

So please, remember 1997 and lend a hand to the people of the Midwestern United States, if the flood waters hit. I know that many people will remember if you do and all of them will be grateful for years to come.

My Crazy Day

2009-03-07T23:30:08Z

I was reading at Barns & Noble, when my sister called me telling me I had to work today. This resulted in me panicking and not only buying the book I was reading, but also a book I was thinking about looking at. After this I called Wal-Mart and verified that I didn’t have to work today. Me and my sister came home and mom made my sister drive me to work anyway. The reason that mom insisted on this, was so that my sister would know how to get me to work if she had to. I also had to find my job, couch and tell him or her that I don’t work today. When we got to Wal-Mart all I was able to do was introduce my mom to some of my coworkers and try to find my job couch. My job couch either hadn’t come yet or had already left so all I could do was leave a note.

So over all its been a crazy day, that wasn’t spent on watching any anime. However the book I picked up was Watch Men, so far its will be the only American Comic Book that I will have finished. I am not just reading it because of the movie, that is now in theaters, but because I am curious about the story. I am hoping that this will be the first of many American Comic Books, that I will be reviewing. I am also planning to see the movie some time after I finish reading the book.

Witchblade

2009-03-06T17:37:09Z

My rating M for mature or R, I haven’t decided yet.

"Long sought by the greed of men, but bestowed only on the women whose fate it forever scars, the Witchblade, righteous sword of God or hand of the Devil himself. A new bearer finds out, seeking balance between ecstasy and ruin."-
(Witchblade prolog found on disk one)

Retold with original story and cast, Witchblade is based on an American comic book of the same name. in this retelling, it becomes the story of Masane Amaha and her daughter Rihoko, in there on going quest to stay together as a family. Along the way they have to go into hiding, to avoid child services which always seems to be looking for new ways to separate them. They also make a handful of good friends, who do what they can to help and support Masane and Rihoko.

The art and music of Witchblade is not only suitable for the story, but it seems to drive it forward. Not only during the battle seans where Masane transforms into a monstrous being, but also in bring out all of the other characters and the feeling of being in Japan after the grate quack.

I highly recommend buying, renting, or watching this online (Funimation is releasing some things online legitimate)

What should I do?

2009-03-02T01:22:51Z

There are only a few things I have asked my mom not to do. Clean my room and open the blinds in my bed room. She dose both of these things, but the latter is the one that really gets under my skin. I mean just about every time she opens my blinds she opened them too far and they get stuck. That’s exactly what I cam home to after my friends brought me home from a sleep over at her house. I called my mom and explicitly told her that she is no longer allowed to touch the blinds in my room. When I made the call, I wasn’t angry I was just telling her that she was no longer allowed to touch the blinds in my room.

So what dose she do soon after she comes home? She starts messing around with the blinds in my room! She did manage to fix them, but that doesn’t change the fact that I am mad at her. For crying out lode I am a grown women, not a child! If I tell her not to do something all I want form her is a little respect, is that so much to ask? Its little things like this, that only make me want to get my own place even more.

All that I want is for her to respect my space, I just don’t know what to say to her. I mean why can’t she just listen to me and stop treating me like a child? I am don’t my best to act my age and show her that I am capable of acting like an adult.

Then yesterday before I left for my friends house, mom kept coming up with ideas and suggestions. Sure she was kind enough to make a care package for us and both me and my friend appreciated it. But why dose she have to be so involved in something she isn’t participating in? its just so frustrating, suffocating.

Opened Cheek

2009-02-28T21:17:06Z

Some one opened my cheek from the nuns. I though how much money I made was suppose to be between me and my bosses. I mean who on earth could be this nosy and why one earth and why would anyone want to know? Some things are and should remain privet.

my patients are trying to help me get social security and I can only make so much money in order to get on it. However the nuns don’t pay me vary much and I don’t like it when people look at my cheeks behind my back. If mom or dad wants to know how much I am making, in regards to social security or if I am making enough to live on my own, they can ask me.

The Pet Solution?

2009-02-20T05:53:43Z

Recently I joined Twitter, just for fun and then I found out about a cat who’s owner Twitters for him! The cat’s name is Sockington and that cat is so cute! Oh I am also fallowing a dog named Elguapito. I know this isn’t real, but its kind of fun and a lot easer then taking care of a real animal.

Supernatural

2009-02-01T00:55:59Z

Last year a friend got me hooked on the show Supernatural and I am loving it! The show started around 2005, it fallows two brothers, Sam and Dean, who spend most of their time hunting evil. Though out the show the brothers learn that not everything in the world is black and white. For one thing they come across some vampires that feed off of animal blood, instead of human blood. The friend I heard about the show form, also told me that they become friends with a demon, this particular demon would have to be one of the good guys. So yah given this detail, I am willing to except evil beings getting into heaven if they try hard enough, but only with in the boundaries of the show.

Supernatural covers mythology, urban legends and just about everything in-between. I am just starting the third season and am wondering exactly where the show is going. One of the things I love about the show, is the positive view of religion that comes across in the show. Priests are portrayed as ordinary men, with a vary important job to do.

There is a wonderful example of this in one episode where a being; that seems to be as an angle is telling people to kill. Sam is convinced that it is an angle, Sam being the religious one. But Dean is skeptical, because he has never seen an angle. In the end we find out exactly what the “angel” is and Dean is ready to except that there are things out there that he hasn’t seen yet. Though all of this a positive view of religion is maintained. I would tell you what the so called “angel turns out to be, however that would spoil the story.

Before I started watching the show, I new that the show has a different take on Heaven and Hell then what I am used to. However this is a work of fiction so their take on the after life doesn’t bother me too much. I just hope that most people who watch Supernatural can take it as a work of fiction and don’t try to read deep theological stuff into the show.

Supernatural is available on the Fargo CW and hopefully on other CW channels. I would sat a little about the show its self. Unfortunately , I am not sure how to do that with out giving out some big spoilers. However if you are an fain of the X Files, or related shows you will probably love this!

And yes, this show is the reason why, I haven’t been watching a lot of anime lately. But I have some extra days off in February so I should find plenty of time to watch a lot of anime and Supernatural as well.. ^_^

Its official, I am going to Bismarck, North Dakota, to support Friendship Inc! I will be online less, since my mom and me will be staying with the grandparents. I have already written the letter that I am going to be reading in front of the North Dakota Legislator. Now all that is left is to pack and do the best that I can for Friendship Inc.
I do plain on bloging about this so the laptop will be traveling with me, so I can start writing while everything is fresh in my mind. That and I will probably make some time to play the Sims 2 as well.

indigo_kitsune @ 2009-01-23T10:12:00

2009-01-23T16:22:01Z

Next week, I might be appearing before the North Dakota Legislator, to speech on the behalf of Friendship Inc. I have been working with them for a few years now. They have helped me to acquire a lot of the skills, needed to hold down a job. Now all I need to know, is if I can get the day in question off from work.

This is my apology for subjecting the owner of Wittle Wabbit.
This is for one of my most beloved amines, Petite Princes Yucy. all of the girls shown are 16 years olf, with the bodys of 10 yesr olds. This isn't a fetish anime.

The Tale of Wittle Wabbit

Here is a short depressing story about a Wittle Wabbit and why you should never take thing too literally.

Community Collage?

2009-01-16T16:08:34Z

I might be going to community collage this fall. however this time I am not going to go for general studies, I plain on studying web design. I did something like this in high school, but it was on a vary basic level. I am not good a coding and to tell the truth I don’t understand it. But if I was able to work with some kind of computer program I could probably learn how to do it with out too many problems.

2009-01-11T21:29:01Z

I really wanted to review Jigoku Shoujo (Hell Girl) season 1-3 today, however the show is till coming out in Japan. ^_^

So the review for Saiyuki season 1-3 will be up sooner.

Here is what I know about Jigoku Shoujo in the USA, the first season is available to buy though Funimation. Personally I am thrilled by this and am hoping that they will pick up the second and third seasons as well. Now all I need is some extra money and the hop that Best Buy will order a few copys. Honestly when I first started watching Jigoku Shoujo, I didn’t think I would have made it past fan subs. But some one did have the brilliant idea for bring over one of my all time favorite mind Fs, Serial Experiments Lain, so This one was also do to be dubbed.

Any way here is all of the anime I have see or plain to see. Also I have some that I have droped or have put on hold for later viewing .

2-7 & 8-3 its just wrong

2009-01-09T19:03:15Z

Its seems like forever since I wrote a review of anime or anything. Right now I blame work, honestly when ever I don’t work at the Convent they have me down for the 2-7 or 3-8 shifts. Its not that bad, I mean I like the work that I do and I like seeing the little children, grandparents, and many of the other people who shop at Wal-Mart. What I don’t like is riding the bus home alone at night knowing that I will be getting home too late to go out with friends.

I do have some days off, but when I do my friends almost never have the same days off. Or they have advance that have been planed out well in advance. Some times work and not having a lot of time to spend with my friends can be vary suffocating. The worse part is that the janitorial staff at work is so under staffed that there is no helping it most of the time.

But I am planning on reviewing Jigoku Shoujo (Hell Girl) seasons 1 -3 and Saiuki seasons 1 -3. Now I just need more time to watch them, it would be so much easer if I could just get a hold of some extra money and buy all of them some how. But then I don’t know if all three seasons of Jigoku Shoujo are available in the USA yet. Oh well at lest there are fan subs until all three seasons come out over here.

I just hope that my bus is on time picking me up from work today, that way with any luck I can finish Jigoku Shoujo and start writing about the show tonight. It just doesn’t feel right when I am not writing kind of like my fingers are hungry for the key board or a pen and paper.

I also hope that I can get better hours at work, right now I feel emotionally worn out. All I want is to stay home and find some way of coming out of this funk that I have found myself in today. Maybe a little writing will help with that?
