Lan borrowed a switch from Wilso, but file sharing didn’t work at first. It was a little weird helping her when she’s using a OS I don’t know and using it away from me. She got her files transferred eventually though. So… yay! ^^;

Meeting Online Acquaintances
I found a post on Gaia Online titled “Making Gaia Badges to wear to Cons ~ FAQ’s *updated*” that discussed making name tags for the upcoming Anime Expo. The badges would have one’s Gaia name and avatar on them for locating other Gaia Online users. The following is a screen shot of part of the thread.

Um… you can probably guess what I want to comment about… so I just won’t.
Trigun Volume 1
This manga was longer than most at 357 pages. I enjoyed it, but I think I would have been confused had I not seen most of the anime. Major elements of the plot are revealed much earlier in the manga than in the series, which I like. A lot of the panels seem a little difficult to follow in my opinion. Perhaps if I had slowed down, it would have made more sense, but I guess it wasn’t needed because I had seen the series. I’m definitely going to be reading the next volume.
Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
I was expecting this movie to be entertaining, but it was much better than I thought it would be. Dodgeball was very funny and a lot of randomness that I love. For instance, Steve the Pirate is… a pirate. Why? I don’t know, but I guess the movie would have felt a little pirateless without his character. I really like Ben Stiller, and he played his roll wonderfully. I’m also a fan of Vince Vaugn, who did well in Dodgeball.
If you see this movie, which you should, stick around after the credits. A fat Ben Stiller plays with his tits. Good stuff.
Lan, Gemma
On Monday, Gemma cancelled on seeing a movie with me. We were gonna go yesterday. She said she had to buy a hermit crab. We rescheduled, but I talked to her last night, and she hadn’t yet bought it. I went to Lan’s yesterday where we attempted to burn a DVD. Her computer kept seeing my blanks as audio CDs… the other two computers there saw them fine though. She’s going to try to borrow a hub and ethernet from someone. Hopefully that works out for her. It was fun just talking to her though.
Neon Genesis Evangelion Volume 1
This manga was created after the seriers, and from what I understand, has not yet been completed. The graphics are excellent and have a lot of detail. The story goes pretty in-depth, and parts of the plot are more obvious in the manga than the anime. It’s stuck pretty close to the anime, although some things are different, and more details have been slipped in like I said. The writers probably didn’t want people quite as confused when reading the manga as viewers of the series were. NGE has been very good so far.
Love Hina Volume 1
The manga is similar to the series but different enough to keep me very interested. The plot makes more sense in the manga as well. By the end of the first volume, the girls of the house have just accepted him. I’ve heard that this manga is excellent and contains a huge amount of story left out of the anime. So far, that’s been true.
Midori no Hibi Anime & Manga Volume 1
After watching just Midori no Hibi episode 1, I wrote that “It’s a very strange series. Sawamura is a tough guy and a high school student who loves fighting but always defends the weak and right. He’s never had a girl friend and has asked out twenty girls, getting rejected each time. One evening, while complaining about only having his right hand as a lover, he finds than in place of a right hand he now has a girl, Midori, on his arm. She claims to have loved him for years. At first Sawamura is frightened and angry, but he warms up to her.”
I just finished watching the series, and I thought it was very good. The plot is obviously built on something rather stupid, setting the light, comedic tone of the series. The sound and music was good, and the visuals were great, especially many of the backgrounds. I’ve loved the intro since I first saw it.
Throughout the series, Sawamura gets closer and closer to Midori, but his true feelings aren’t realized until the final episode. I was pleased with the ending, however, the final scene seemed anti-climatic. What happened wasn’t, but the way it was portrayed was. I really enjoyed the series though. If you like light, comedic romances (it was more a comedic than romantic), then you shouild like this.
The first volume of the manga was also entertaining, although I like the anime much more. The chapters are very short. The sereis covered incidents much more in-depthly than the manga. Much more happened in the series as well. I’m hoping that these other incidents will be in later volumes. It seems to me that the manga will pick up after it begins to describe events that aren’t in the series. I’ll see soon.
Aishiteru ze Baby 12
Everything really does seem fixed with Yuzuyu! However, is Kokoro jealous? It appears there’s something to look forward to next week.
And Kippei’s teacher is IMAI! ZOMG! That teacher must be awesome with a name like IMAI! Okay, I’m done. This series is still great.
Midori no Hibi Days 12
The series was so good! Days 12 was a great episode with some major turning points. I hope the next episode has been released. I’ll find out today at Dev’s. The “next episode” portion at the end of Days 12 said “Last Days” and “Our Days.” I guess that means the next episode is the last. sdghsodvjhjkdslfnhskdfh I want it.
