Sleep IS Necessary...

I need to keep busy for a while. I haven't slept all night last night, and now I'm facing the concequences at work. I'm so dead tired that I can barely keep my eyes open and I'm pretty sure that my co-workers are slowly catching on that I'm just waiting to go home and that I'm constantly dozing off and stuff. Train back home is going to be a bitch again, I was constantly falling asleep on the way to work, suddenly woke up and realised I only had one more stop before I had to get off and I was still falling asleep constantly.

Now I just gotta keep looking busy for a while and keep myself from actually falling asleep for another 75 minutes. Torture...

Tekkaman Blade II

I'm a big fan of the original remake of the series, so when I found out there was a sequel, I was psyched!

Now that I've watched it, I'm sad that there were only 6 episodes. Though the focus has been taken away from the coolest character in the series and it's full of inconsistencies with the original Tekkaman Blade (biggest being that Blade is actually moving, teksetting and remembering things, another being that Blade doesn't need Pegas anymore and that Aki now uses it, I could go on forever), but if you can look past that, it's a very good addition.

There's some excellent action schenes, the music is, especially during fights, pretty good. The story isn't really all that present and the character development is amazing, which is understandable since they need to do it in only 6 episodes, which causes one of them to be a complete bitch to one of the others in one episode and be her best friend the next!

It's a little weird, it shouldn't have been possible and really wasn't, but it was fun nonetheless!

Ikkitousen Dragon Destiny

Being a fan of the first series of Ikkitousen didn't help prepare me for the shock that was to be this second series.
Maybe I just remembered wrong, but Ikkitousen was a lot of fun. It had a somewhat interesting plot, it had a lot of action that looked pretty cool and it was very funny.

This one however appears to have tried to focus more on the story and possibly ecchi-ness, which in my opinion didn't really go so well in either departments.
Sure I don't mind a little big-breasted female half-nudity in a show, but when it becomes depentent on it, it is a sign that they did something wrong.
Trying too hard to make the story really interesting and that being noticable is also not really all that great.

The OVA seems more like what it should have been after it chose the path it did, real nudity and lots of comedy!

The Black Mages - Those Who Fight Further

Those of you who don't know these dudes yet and have played Final Fantasy VII should not be disappointed by this song. It is one of my personal favorite songs of all time. The only sad thing about this song is that they haven't made one out of Those Who Fight (normal battle theme).
If you haven't played this game or didn't like it, but like the music we all know and love 'Metal' then you will like this too:
