YARRR!!!

Another one of those leechers. And another one.

So many copycats these days.

I am annoyed but I usually leave them be. Usually those are mere web scripts. And they link back to me anyway, which is good. Good enough to help me gain more readership. Unfortunately some readers they invite are those —-tards, you know, the people who hardcore-ly defend their anime as if it were the second coming.

I think it's about time that I speak against this rapidly annoying form of anime fandom, and hope to find the main problem of which it stems from.

School Days

Finally, another controversial anime. Ever since the hugely destructive emo soap opera in the name of Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien left me breathless, I've been clamoring for some other show that has all the angst of a mature romance story in anime form. Alas, no other anime ever came close to the greatness of that one… until School Days. But the question is, did School Days topple Kiminozo in my heart? Well, let's see…

YARRRR!!!

It's awesome! Anime blogs including mine are being copied! Thanks for the visibility. Gives me more visitors. On the other hand, don't you get pissed off when someone copies your works for their gain. Maybe that sitey is generating profit. I demand some profit too. Please donate $$$ to the cause. I need to buy more eroge.

How much galge is there anyway?

I think it's hard to imagine that an industry with a very limited number of target markets can sustain itself. I'm talking about this whole otaku industry. Maybe let's make it a little more specific… the bishoujo/galge/eroge industry. How, I mean… HOW in the world do the people who work in this industry 'survive'?

Revivals: Summer of Bishoujo 3 Project

Sunday, June 10th, 2007

Get the Flash Player to see the wordTube Media Player.

Re-opening this project is like reminiscing a old lost love.

Welcome to the revival!

Since I was away, I bet that all of you readers more or less know so much about bishoujo games already. I feel like I don't need to introduce the genre anymore. The bishoujo/eroge/galge theme is exploding like wildfire right now, and most of that is attributed to game-to-anime conversions.

On the other hand, I saw a personal decrease in my fandom of the genre, mostly because I'm quite busy. So my this time around Bishoujo 3 will a be a bit more attuned to reviving my interest towards, er… beautifully drawn CG girls trapped in CG backgrounds with a text box and voice dialogue. And hopefully my sparse blogging would be improved by it as well.

The URL for the project is still the same, please visit:

See you!

XBOX XRATED

Tuesday, December 13th, 2005

Since I saw some preview videos on MTV featuring Xbox 360, my mouth watered on how much graphics technology has improved in games. One particular game of note was this racing game which totally blew me away, it was the most realistic-looking racer I have ever seen! I thought, man, X360 is gonna rock.

While I absolutely won't buy that console, I would be delighted to play it once in a while. Here we have shops which have console gaming rentals at cheap rates per hour, so it's possible that I can see and play a X360 soon. Seems that Microsoft has the edge because it has an early lead with the other next-gen consoles PS3 and Revolution.

Not quite in Japan.

News sources seem to tell that the Xbox 360 launch isn't as big… as expected? Or at all? Hmm… how many thousands did they sell so far? Quite incomparable to any recent console launch. I recall PS2 selling a million in Japan on just one day, if I'm not mistaken. That one is l33t.

Now check this out… X360 launches in Japan at almost the same time as To Heart 2: XRATED right? Wanna guess which sold better? Which lines are for X360 and which are for TH2X?

Ok fine, my current favorite game is absolutely no match for a giant game console in the long run, but isn't it great to feel that somehow TH2X outsold X360 on launch day? a bishoujo game seemed more successful than an entire game console? Whahahaha! Microsoft just got a beating from some bishoujo girls! W00t!

Worship Ruu~!! Raise our hands to the sky! Ruu~!

Sorry for this mindless post, it really just seems funny (to me only). Not to mention both have X's on their names… er but that was lame too.

Oh, and someone got a perfect idea to boost Xbox 360 sales!
