Every episode I watch of School Days, it just seems to get more and more crazy. With Kotonoha finding out about Makoto and Sekai, I’m surprised that she didn’t confront them sooner, but I guess that’s also because of her personality. She seems to be a person who rather wait for something to happen than to take the initiative. Still, she is trying in her own way and obviously it’s not enough, and with Makoto not being by her side, we’re already starting to see her descent in mental stability, e.g the way she is undoing the entire knit work.

Back when Pumpkin Scissors was airing, I thought it was pretty awesome since it was set in a post-war era where civilization is trying to recover. Though the first half of the series was a bit of a drag, the later half started to become something totally awesome. And what way to continue this awesomeness? A figure release of course. So I present to you, 2nd Lt. Alice L Malvin of Pumpkin Scissors.

If there is anything I like about Kinokuniya, besides buying my regular mangas, is finding random stuff, or better yet, random art books that I thought I’d never see in the Sydney store. Well my dearest Roobar dragged me out to the city before watching The Simpsons movie and a trip to Kinokuniya was in order. The first thing I saw once I got to the art book section? Fujishiro Takeshi Illustrations - Nagasarete Airantou.

It has been a long time since ARIA The NATURAL ended, in fact it finished airing on the 1st October 2006, and it sadden me greatly that it finished. But then the ARIA OVA was announced and I was ecstatic, and now that it has aired, I can honestly say it was so beautiful that it makes me want to cry tears of joy. Everything about it was done really like the animation has improved significantly. The background and panning shots of Neo-Venezia look almost like paintings and everything feels so vibrant. It was also nice to see all the characters once again and this OVA brings us all the things that we love about it. The music, the super-deformed appearances, Aria-shachou’s funny moments, and the simply feeling of losing track of time.

So Hayate quest for a ultimate move is still going on and I think it’ll be a while till we see him get one. Though I found it pretty funny how they happen to find a book on ultimate moves, but that’s the kind of anime series this is, randomness. With it being summer vacation, I think this will go on for a few more episodes so perhaps Hayate will learn something within that time? I also noted that Himegami was mentioned in this episode as well as previous ones. I wonder if we’ll be getting any more info on him as he is right now a big mystery. There’s not much mentioned about him in the manga from what I’ve read, though I’m only upto Volume 6.

So with Makoto and Sekai’s true feelings known, their relationship has definitely been taken to a higher level. Although they have taken a big step, one thing for sure, Makoto is a lecherous coward. His decision to not tell Kotonoha about his relationship with Sekai is simply adding fuel to the fire, but he also doesn’t want to admit his guilt of betraying Kotonoha. Though with his relationship with Sekai, it seems that their roles are now reversed. Before it was Sekai who was in charge, but now Makoto is the one pushing, and it shows that Sekai is having a hard time saying no.

Yep, that’s right, I finally got around to finishing the little things I wanted to do on the new layout. The aim for this new layout was that I wanted something plain and simple. What I’m using here is the K2 theme with a few minor modifications. What they are I can’t even remember as some I did like 2 months ago. Just some new features that I have added include:
- Polls - because everyone likes to vote in polls
- View Counter - a simple way for me to track how many times a page has been viewed so I don’t have to search through logs
- Random banners - Simple banners for now because I suck on the creative side of things. But if you like to make me a banner, that would be awesome. Size is to be 1000×200 px.
- The site is now optimized for those who are running 1024×768 resolutions. So no more side scrolling!
- And all the funky shit that comes normally with the K2 theme.
Also hopefully with the new theme, things are a little easier to read. I noticed myself that the text was sometimes hard to read. You may have noticed that I’m using purple as a theme. Well it’s to go with my love for girls with long purple hair. Anyway most of the site is working fine and there’ll be some more changes added once I get to them. The blogroll itself will also be trimmed down as I remove those blogs who are pretty much inactive. So if you find any issues or bugs with the new layout, please leave a comment here.
edit: I also just noticed that this is the 400th post. v4….400… it’s like a new theme once every 100 posts!
