Scarlet Weather Update: Update Patch 1.03 Is Out!

FINALLY!

Yup, it’s out. And since all of Tasofro’s mirrors are down (you can’t even actually enter the site anymore), it’s uploaded already in mediafire. Get it here!

Strike Witches 9: Things I Want To Protect

As I expected, my predictions were true. So much for the anticipated Mio-Minna lovey-dovey. And since the dorama is out in the open, along with a lot of extensive information and all that blablabla, I got a good dose  character material for today’s ep. You’ll have to pardon the tl;dr.

Minna’s held Mio (thank you TheBigN for correcting me) at gunpoint, and requests her not to wear a Striker Unit again. Of course, Mio isn’t surprised. The incident from last ep was something that was expected by both persons, though they don’t want to admit the fact. But still, Mio insists that she must still fly.

But really, it’s a given that you must give in on a Lady In Red.

Thus, we get the idea of why Mio was recruiting Yoshika for the 501st, and why she’s taking so much interest in her: First, she’s a prominent personality, considering Minafuji’s father was the Striker Unit’s creator. Second, Mio needs a replacement, a certain someone who’ll take her place if something happens to her. Now we see Perinne being childish, Yoshika being serious, and the atmosphere between the factions of the countries that are involved intensifying. No wonder they’re trying to silence Minna.

“You know too much. DO NOT GET INVOLVED.”

Negima Chapter 224: Incredible Strength! Fate’s Beautiful Young Warriors!

Well, what do you know? MOAR ACTION! I’m so anticipating this.

Negi’s party is already prepared for any attacks made on them if they are to consider Fate as a formidable opponent. In this case, a counterattack is in order. At this point in time, it’s where we see whose guns draw faster bullets.

Shirabe confronts Chiu, Honya and Paru, while Kotomi and Tamaki are tasked to handle Rakan. This is to ensure nobody gets to Negi during Fate’s crucial blackmail. Will Negi give in? Will he accept? Will he refuse? We’re not just talking persons or VIPs here. We’re talking WORLDS. Fate sure is playing a dirty hand this time around. But hey, he’s ALWAYS playing the dirty hand! Who gives a damn thinking about a certain point of hesitation?

MUDADA!

Paru is getting impressive by the minute as she conjures impressive drawings in mere seconds (Inferno Aniki EX is fukken manly, I tell you), but her and Honya’s powers aren’t enough to stop Shirabe as even Paru’s ultimate defense was rendered useless. She holds true that no series is without destructive music. Flesh-ripping soundwaves are good for your ears, no? At least Kotaro’s there to kick some horned, CAVED! ass… probably…

This is soooo not Rekka no Honoo…

Gallery Update: Crimson Moon Remilia Scarlet

Just a random doodle I was making while wallowing myself with thoughts of TYPE-MOON, Touhou, and my upcoming literary for my doujin circle.

Time to archive in Gallery. Will CG when I even think about it. Kekeke…

Zero no Tsukaima - Princess no Rondo Halftime Report

Sweet! Halftime Report!

Well, I’ve got nothing much to say. Just some complaints, some shout-outs, probably something to clear out to that stupid Censorship-san (like, how does “GET THE FUCK OFF MY ECCHI SHOWS!” sound?). But yeah, I do have a few points to note.

I don’t really have complaints about JC Staff’s continued depiction of the anime, and how it’s striving hard to be as canon to the novel as possible. It’s just that sometimes, there are inconsistencies that leave me hanging. Such an example would have to be Derf using powers to escape into Westwood Forest with Saito.  In the novel, Derf controlled Saito’s body and moved it away from the battlefield, while in the anime, Derf simply teleported Saito into Tifa’s woods. Amazingly, it did work out for the series since there isn’t really anything wrong with the means, so I don’t know if this would count as a complaint or a compliment.

“Character Development” is always welcome.

Randomsphere 11: Rule 43

How beautiful. Satisfying as it is, now I must corrupt it.

Zero no Tsukaima - Princess no Rondo 8: The Eastern Pursuit!

Finally! Gallia Expedition GET!

The plane, named as Ostrand… or Ostland, whatever the name is (Japanese L-R shit kicking in), is finally introduced in the series. It is a plane powered by steam engines, and has an output that is pretty much similar to the planes in the real world. Landing on Tristain academy, it was made clear that they were conducting flight tests for the plane itself, and they occasionally fly over the academy, hence the rumors. Since Kirche was involved, it’s obvious that the funding for the project was provided by her.

NICE BOAT!

It was also made clear that she’s one of the reasons of Colbert-sensei’s disappearance, the other being Tabitha. In order to avert Anies’ rage away from the Fire Snake, Tabitha cast a “fake-death” spell, after which Colbert was retrieved and was brought to Germania, where he continued his research for the Ostland/Ostrand. Well, so much for the hiding. At least it’s made clear he didn’t really die or anything, or AN HERO will still live in our hearts.

Moreover, Louise notices that Saito’s been too preoccupied with his thoughts. Could it be that he’s thinking about the princess? Louise tried to get Saito’s say about this, but fails. After consulting SIesta (who still didn’t forget the bet from last ep), Tifa finally butts in, suggesting to use an item called the Crystal of the Night. The item is capable of making the user see a certain person’s chain of events of last night. Of course, Louise uses this for the sole purpose of confirming something about the Princess and Saito.

“It’s about time you gave your master some cunnilingus!”

Finally, A “Schedule”

More preparations for EPIC BATTLE, perhaps?

I’ve put up a schedule page to keep myself in check on my blog posts. Hopefully this will reduce backlogs, and secure me a little bit of time for myself.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, I thought I should visit a certain Arrow Duck’s website. When I checked out his schedule page, and saw how he was “organized” in his posts, I thought maybe I should do the same thing. Not that it’s really bad for a sudden change of format, but it should work.

So I’m posting a monthly schedule. Why not a daily one, Shance? Well, my my me, it’s not we’re always up there for the task, so setting individual posts on certain days would have to be really troublesome. Besides, there are some posts that only come out when the show gets aired, or if the game comes out, or if I’m certain I’m going to post some sketch or webcomic. So basically, I’m “generalizing” the stuffs, which would hopefully sync up everything at the very least. Not that you cared anyway, so scram.

Perversions Revisited

MIKE HAS ADMITTED TO THE MAJOR FAULT OF HUMAN LUST!

So what? Nobody’s an exception anyway. Albeit many don’t admit it, it’s already obvious how everybody perceives the routine wherein topic is concerned.

And yes, I have to warn you this is NOT SAFE FOR WORK.

So, what’s wrong with liking the stuff? Hentai? Eroge? Doujin? All of those stuffs contain what everybody thinks is quite dirty. But is it really what you think it is? Truly, it may be against certain morals to engage in something so sinful an activity, but to prevent oneself to open the doors of acceptance to the fact of would have to be one stupid ass.

Some people like hentai. Some people like eroge. Some people like doujinshi. And even though most people consider men as the most common patrons for this, that’s where they’re wrong. I don’t really say, but women also have the right to exercise lust. I wouldn’t be surprised to find some of them saying they watch animated Japanese porn, and nobody has the right to tell a woman she’s dirty when we see a whole lot of men for  the sake of prejudice.

Strike Witches 8: Forget-Me-Not

Minna’s ep! MYLF alert! MYLF alert!

Yoshika tries to bond with the other military members of the 501st, only to do so in vain. Commander Minna said that everyone was ordered not to have any kind of conversation or physical contact with any Witch, even if the Witch herself was the one who approached. Of course Yoshika was bewildered by the order.

She was then called in by Minna, and was surprised to meet the captain of the recently fixed Akagi. The captain actually wants to express his thanks to Yoshika for a job well done on the Akagi Neuroi attack. She was given a present, which Minna didn’t quite like. Then, he proceeds to talk about the planned strike against the Neuroi territories.

Why, thank you.

And BOOM! Minafuji suddenly gets some kind of admirer from a humble sailor of Akagi’s crew. Boldly presenting a letter, he openly tries to sum up his remaining courage and present his confession of love written in paperba-WAIT! What the fuck? Why am I doing some kind of novel skit on something that’s not even fucking good or funny? Yoshika tries to muster up an answer to the sailor, only to get screwed up by the wind… and by Commander Minna.

OHSHIAT!
