Hey.
I kinda forgot to do an E3 post, so here's a small round-up, in case you weren't alive at the time.
Microsoft announced a motion controller! It's totally original, guys.
Microsoft announced FaceBook! It's totally original, guys.
Sony announced a motion controller! It's totally original, guys.
Sony announced a download-only console! It's totally original, guys.
Nintendo... Wait, what DID Nintendo announce?
Anyway, there were also some more awesome yet not directly related updates, such as Star Radish in Doki Majo Plus! This is a truely epic announcement, and it has secured my will to attain the game. Also, Shana season 3 confirmed! I shat bricks.
I got a new phone a few days ago. It's a Nokia 5800, and it's awesome. It has pretty much every feature imaginable, plus a few emulators. I originally had Miku as my wallpaper, but then I remembered to conceal my power level, so I changed it to Nice Boat.
I also bought an outdated gaming PC. It has a 1337 case and one of those epic LCD temperature monitors, so I plan on upgrading it until it can run Crysis on full settings.
I've just finished Dokuro-Chan. I can see why people like it, but ultimately it has a very boring storyline and some really unfunny jokes. The only reason you should watch it is for the otaku point bonus.
Expect another post when something cool happens.
I suggest rape.

Well that was cool.
I went to MCM today. London was pretty awesome, there were some good landmarks for me to test my DSi camera on.
This one was by far the biggest so far, as in, the last two were roughly the same size as a school, whereas this one was basically ComiCon-sized. Because of the huge amount of people, I wasn't able to get any cosplayer photos. Every time I asked someone, about 30 or so people would sweep either me or them away.
I WON on TAIKO, which is a pretty incredible achievement. The dude I was against was all AAARRRGGGHHH and stuff.
Since I had more money this time, I managed to attain more swag.
For example,
Pocky. Since you can now get the plain chocolate flavor in the UK, I bought the strawberry ones.
This Shana Figure. It cost me £6, but it's worth it for all the "use" I'll get out of it.
This awesome hat, which I am currently wearing. Obviously based on Di Gi Charat.
Strawberry Marshmellow Volume 1. Much more badass than the anime.
Shana poster. Yes, another one.
Lucky Star poster featuring the awesome artwork from the PS2 game.
Lucky Star wall scroll, because I secretly don't hate Kagami.
And THE BEST MOUSE PAD EVER. Seriously, they're like IMPOSSIBLE to import. I never thought I'd see this exact one at the TokyoToys stand.

Classified Information~
HARUHI
SERIES
TWO
EPISODE
ONE
JUST
FUCKING
AIRED.
I just watched the whole thing, and found that I could understand quite a lot without subs.
The episode follows a small arc in "Disappearance" involving Kyon, Mikuru, Mikuru, loli Haruhi and a Doctor Who reference.
The style hasn't changed a lot, but occasionally some of the faces and movement follows the K-ON! style.
That's all for now. I just wanted to be the first to blog this.
Oh also, SC4 Pix.
pippi. It was pretty hard to make, and it's not overly accurate, but I think this is the closest possible combination. She's JAMES DIFFICULTY when used, PWNing pretty much all bosses (Had a hard time with The Apprentice though).
Badass Santa, since it's illegal to download the Santa kit and not make a Santa character.
Robbie Rotton. Fucking win. Pretty good as a fighter, too.
Leonidas...
Ganondorf...
...And Remmy, because I enjoy stripping him with pippi. Luckily, there was a voice available that sounded EXACTLY like he does on Vent.

My breasts... Megassa squeeze them.
Sorry about lack of updates, but it's not really my fault. The internet is being boring.
A few days ago, I purchased (with ACTUAL MONEY) Soul Calibur IV. The characters and story are pretty awesome, but the best thing is the character creator. I've spent countless hours reproducing characters from various anime, games, TV shows and religions and it never gets old.
I've been on it pretty much non stop, but I'll probably get bored soon, as normal mode is extremely easy, and hard mode is insane.
This Saturday, I'm going to MCM in London. I was gonna cosplay, but it turns out I'll be going with only one other person, and I don't want to sit on a train dressed as Gordon Freeman. On the bright side, I can now buy NSFW stuff without people constantly asking me every detail about it. I'm kinda hoping they'll have some Oppai mouse pads in stock, also I wanna get Inaba Box in print.
LOST just finished over here. Having been a loyal viewer from the start of season one, I think I speak for all followers of the series when I say "What the fuck was that all about?".
I recently downloaded the latest Ubuntu. For some reason it won't identify my internal wifi thing, so no internet until I decide whether to install it or not. The latter is more likely due to the AI pwning me at classic board games.
In other news, Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver have been announced, with various videos and screenshots. This is by far the best possible thing that could have happened to Pokemon. Gold and Silver were epic, and always will be. I'll probably get Soul Silver, just because the GSC generation games I own consist of Pokemon Silver, Pokemon Shiruba and Pokemon Silver (Vida Trans).
E3 in a few weeks. Prepare for fail. Microsoft's most anticipated announcement is a new motion controller (like the Wiimote), Sony's is a new motion controller (like the Wiimote), and Nintendo's is that they've given up entirely on the core gamer. Yay for more wrists, puzzles and puppies.
That's about all I have time for tonight, so I leave you with this thing that I made when LoZ:ST was announced:

Ah...AH......ACHOOOOOINK!
Swine flu. lol.
About two weeks ago it was always in the news, but now, not even a mention. Ima go right ahead and say it's because no one's scared of it enough for it to be a big deal.
In other news, EZ Flash 5i.
It arrived yesterday, and it's awesome. It came with a free extendable stylus, thumb stylus, and USB MicroSD reader that's so fucking small it only takes up half a USB port.
After a short break from the DS, I finally got around to DLing a few games I'd been meaning to play for ages.
Henry Hatsworth and the Puzzling Adventure is awesomely British. A large gameplay factor is the Tetris Attack-esque puzzle on the bottom screen, which I like because of the sheer badassness of Tetris Attack.
Megaman ZX is kinda confusing. I really thought I'd be able to walk it after playing through ZXA so many times, but I'm currently hopelessly lost.
Rhythm Heaven, the English iteration of Rhythm Tengoku is also epic. I got gold on most things in the first try, and beat Remix 10 within an hour of starting.
Finally, Kimo Kawa E. It's kinda boring. There's way too much dialog and nowhere near enough fairy-spanking.
#random has been pretty dead lately. Everyone just idles all the time and there's no cybering. I don't go on much anymore, but it's always lifeless when I do.
I've been reading MegaTokyo a lot lately, after reading the ED article. To be honest, the story is pretty damn good and I really couldn't care less if the writer's fat, ugly or an asshole. Of course, there are varying amounts of fail, but it has the same feeling as the KEY games.
Speaking of games, the game.
Speaking of games, Wanko to Kurasou. It fucking blew my mind. I guess I really am a n00b when it comes to eroge.
Speaking of unrelated Japanese words, I got come certificates for Asset Languages Japanese today. I'm still not good at it enough to watch RAWs without going into denial about whether I understand what's going on, but I'm getting there.

MARBLECAKE
About four days ago I stayed up late watching Penguin Musume Heart. I finally finished at about three in the morning. I was extremely tired, so I decided to shut down. Just after I said goodbye on #random, some asshole thought it would be a good idea to tell me about a steam offer. Before I knew it, I had bought The Orange Box, drunk a pint of cider and finished three boxes of Pocky.
As I expected, TF2 runs extremely slow for me when I'm not aiming directly at the floor. I'll fix it when I can be bothered.
HL2, Ep1, Ep2, LC and Portal run perfect on all the highest settings, and they're all awesome. It's an extremely good thing that they have decent replay value, as I had already cleared them many times on various pirate versions.
Animewise, I'm about halfway through To Aru Majutsu no Index, and it's kinda strange. The main character is awesome, he's some failure of a student who has horrible luck due to his right hand deflecting any magic/ESP, such as spells, summoned creatures, and luck. The main heroine, Index, has such a minuscule part that there really isn't much to say about her. The next anime I'm gonna watch is Fate/Stay Night. I wish there were more Type-Moon anime, the stories are awesome, especially stuff like Tsukihime, I'd love to see that animated.
In other news, we finished our school media project. It's a movie made of horrible taste and fail, due to the annoying restrictions set by the exam board. Almost every bit of audio needed to be redubbed as the cameras all recorded a loud hum, and the music was swapped at the last minute, after I realised the original tracks were way too happy.
No, I will not post it here.

SPOILER: RABBITS LAY EGGS
Happy easter, guys.
I got a total of 0 eggs, but I have a huge jar of chillies so I'm not that bothered.
Also DEE ESS FUCKING EYE. It's awesome. It has a MATTE FINISH which makes it extremely sexy. I downloaded WarioWare: Snapped and Paper Plane with my free points, I still have 300 left.
The AAC player DOESN'T SUPPORT .AAC FILES. I had to download fucking ITUNES to convert correctly. It was worth it, though, because the DSi's visualizations are fucking epic.
I did a huge comparison of the different DSi-compatible flash cards, but I forgot to save it. EZ Flash 5i seems to be the winner, with Acekard 2i close in second. DSTTi has compatability issues with some games and homebrew, and R4i is extremely rare and apparently crappy. I'll buy the EZ Flash 5i when I get the money.
In the mean time, I have Braid on PC now. It's totally awesome, and it reminds me of stuff like Portal. Also, after much investigation, I've come up with the theory that Steam actually slows down games. When I got Left4Dead, I had been playing the pirated version on local a lot, and it ran flawlessly in full resolution. When I played the legit one, I got 2-4 FPS on 640x480 with all the graphics settings at the minimum. I originally thought it may have been to do with .gcf files or something, but when I tried the pirated L4D with steam active I got the same performance as the legit one. Similar stuff happens with CSS, Dystopia, Portal and GMod.
I also downloaded StarCraft. It's hard and very boring... without cheats! I love that feeling you get from completely pwning someone when they didn't have a chance of winning in the first place.
Animewise, I've been watching a lot lately. CLANNAD After Story finished, it was the essence of awesome, and so did Toradora, which was also pretty cool. /a/ hated the endings, but that's /a/, they hate everything.
K-ON started last week and it made me completely regain faith in KyoAni after the cancellation of 801-chan and the whole THERE IS NO HARUHI S2 thing. Seriously, this one is the best I've seen in quite a while. A few days after K-ON started, the first episode of the new Hayate no Gotoku series aired. J.C Staff seem to be getting a lot better at animation.
Since my last post, I've marathoned Elfen Leid, Strike Witches, Ookami to Koushinryou, and Hidamari Sketch x365. I doubt any of you actually give two shits about my opinion, so I'm not going to do any more reviews.
Haruhi Season 2 is pretty much confirmed now. As the re-airing of the first series has been listed as 28 episodes. Hopefully, the dissapearence arc hasn't been scrapped and we'll get our shy Nagato and Long-Hair Haruhi.
What is it with aliens and lemons? In pretty much every pic I've seen of Yuki or Ryoko, they're holding lemons and making their signiture faces. I wonder if they have like a fruit fetish or something...
I probably should have made a post on April Fools Day (AKA Trollsmas), containing something along the lines of HOLY SHIT GUYS I WAS WALKING TO SCHOOL AND OUT OF NOWHERE SOMEONE THREW A PINK MUSHROOM AT ME!!1 I FELL UNCONSIOUS AND WOKE UP IN SOME GUYS BASEMENT!!1 THEN THE GUY CAME DOWN AND RAPED ME WITH HIS TRILLIONS OF GIANT TENTACLES!!1 NOW I'M PREGNANT!!!!1... But I guess I missed my chance...
Also, regarding that fancy dress thing, I went in as a pimp. The head of 6th form took a pic of me with a trapstitute, so if I can get a copy, I'll post it here, and maybe on osu!.
