JOURNAL: Anime Jedi

  • Well, that's unfortunate... 2003-05-06 17:49:45 Because I pasted in everything from my last Journal, I forgot the titel... as usual. -_-

    Ever notice how introduction to shows in America are nothing but music videos? Especially in anime! Eveyrthing is just a bunch of clips cut togetherm with some music in the background. I've seen one that kept the original... Gundam Wing!

    More examples? Pokémon! Jeez, they've definitely got intrductions that are mixed with new scenes and ones from the actual show. The music actually pretty good, but don't mix new and old ones! The quality in the scenes are just too different to even show!!!

    Like, I'm watching some of the Japanese intros right now. Nothing but new animation!!! And it looks really good too. It looks much clearer and sharper. But once you add the clips from the actual show... it brings it down a lot. This is why almost all Japanese intros have new animation! I guess because Americains can't make new animation, they're stuck and have to use scenes to help match it up with their song... That sucks...

    Did you know for the episodes of Pokémon that follow the new games Ruby/Sapphire, Misty won't be around anymore? Well, that's the feeling I'm getting from watching the intro. She's not there. Though the new girl form GBA is, and Brock too! I guess it was her turn for a break. lol And Ash got a new hat! Big News! LOL!

    More music video intros? DBZ, Pokémon, Digimon, Medabots, Monster Rancher, Sailor Moon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Escaflowne... The new animated stuff just looks so much better. It's like eye candy! It's cool so watch, and is pretty captivating. Oh well, won't be getting any of those for awhile...

    Enough about that. For now... ~_^

  • 2003-05-06 16:49:02 Happy Birthday Hitori! Hope eachone is better than the last!

    Sarah:
    I really hope you start feeling better soon! All this talk about being sick isn't good at all. Guess all you have to do is rest now. ~_^

    Ducks won! Senators won! That's 2, and including the Devils, that's 3! If Vancouver wins, 4 out of 4 of the teams I thought would win, will win! I'm just glad Vacncouver has 2 more chances to win one game. Then Minnasota will be gone, and it will be Vancouver against Anaheim, and Ottawa against New Jersey. Should be fun! ^_^

    DBZ's almost done. Last 2 episodes, tonight and tomorrow. Can't wait!

    Now in Art we're modelling. So we're taking clay and trying to make busts (head). It's really hard to get the details done right. lol

    YTV's doing this whole Ani-May thing for the month. Anime clips, with interviews they had last year from Anime North. It's actually pretty cool. There's a lot of stuff that seems like child's play for most people here, but I'm sure it's very new to the majority of people watching tv. So I don't mind.

    Oh ya, it's been raining for a bit. But most of the storms are all at night. Too bad... I like storms. During the day it's wet, but even with that in mind, it still seemed nice out. It was a pleasant sight to just see some blue sky when the clouds give a little bit of space between them. They don't often, so you've got to keep a sharp eye out for when it does! lol

    Later!

    That was inconvinient. Internet died for 15 minutes. Almost everything I just wrote here. But luckily I copy and pasted it in Notepad until the internet picked up. ...Man, I'm really having some trouble typing now. Sooooooo many mistakes. -_- (of course I've been trying to correct them as I go along)

  • lol, funny! 2003-05-05 17:14:02 Street Cents (tv show) made a parody of that Macintosh porody! You know, the vid (like a music video) of that guy standing around (and running) and talking about this experiences with Mac computers. Well these were just a bunch of little ones talking about the idea of that huge white void in the back. It was pretty good! I love that show.

    Well, my mom got my project photocopied. It didn't turn out that bad. But I needed to bring my rough draft. Though I'm allowed to bring it tomorrow. Phew!

    Back to old episodes of Pokémon. -_- At least they're better. lol

    Saw a trailer for the new Tomb Raider movie. Looks pretty good to me.

    *as you can see, I'm a little distracted (not much detail). So I'll write more another time.

    See ya later!

  • How's a guy supposed to sleep, when he knows his project's incomplete? 2003-05-04 22:18:25 Hey! That almost rhymes!

    Well, I finished it too late, and my mom refuses to take me out to photocopy it. Something about how I need sleep. -_-

    But now I know it's not done! I can't sleep with that on my mind. And it's not like I can say "Here's it so far. Can I give you the copied version tomorrow?". My teacher has already been generous to give us this weekend to finish it, and I couldn't take advantage of that. If only I had made one more drawing last night... then I could have been done in time.

    But everything should turn out for the best, because she said she'd take me out during my lunch hour to get it done. It's just the feeling of trying to sleep knowing the due date has arrived, and my project isn't finished...

    Well, I never did my Physics homework, and I'm not going to. I'm sure I can make some answer up on the spot tomorrow morning. ~_^

    I think I ruined the side of my middle finger, and end of my index finger. I grip my pencil with those two parts, and my thumb. But I grip it so hard, that after a bit, it leaves marks in my fingers, and it looks like grooves. That's why I find it so hard to take notes for a long time, write or drawing too. So this weekend pretty much killed my right hand. lol!

    I guess it's time to try and get some sleep...

    Goodnight everyone. And may you all have pleasant dreams. ^_^

  • Shivering like crazy 2003-05-04 18:54:26 Hmmm... that's weird. I put "Gotta finish it off" (or whatever it is) after my name. I guess that's an oopsie!

    Anyways, I just spent 4 hours of my life washing the pool tarp. It was something that had to be done, but it took a little longer than expected. That would be my fault because when I rinsed one side, I let water get on the bottom, leaving soap everywhere. So technically had to wash it twice. -_-

    And you know it's a nice day when every 10 minutes someone walks by. Doesn't matter how, whether it's some noisy children, an elderly couple, a bunch of giggling girls (~_^) or people walking their dogs (there was a lot of these people!), someone was there. I was actually kinda surprised there were so many. lol

    Darn it! Back to art. Because I REALLY need to finish now!
