Not too sick for Gosick =)

I am looking for new anime's and manga's to watch and read, when i happen to see the Manga (soon to be aired as anime) Gosick.Imagine seeing a very cute girl, small, elegant and looks like a doll from every angle...the thing is, she smokes on a pipe :O (Bad gurl =( ).

Yeah~ Gosick is about the story of a little sherlock homes that has the power to tap into the "Fountain of Knowledge". I get the feeling that she has the power to look back at the past (my opinion only). She uses her amazing deduction by patching up evidences, clues, and memories that helps in solving the case. She goes by the name Victorique de Blois "Victorica/Victorique") (wew classy >_>) and the guy who happens to have all the misgivings in a foreign country Kazuya Kujo (a japanese boy studying in a foreign country).

At first i thought that the story was cute, but then again "cuteness" is the main theme of the story. There were rumors that there is a fairy hiding on top of the library (Victorica) that helps solve cases in return for your soul. But, she will also settle for foreign snacks (cookies, cakes etc).

I can't help but remember an anime/manga that has the same sense as Gosick and that would be RosenMaiden.

RozenMaiden is a story about dolls made by the doll maker Rozen. They are able to move around due to contracts and the power of their Rosa Mystica's. These cute dolls are not just for show, they will battle it out until there is only one of them left and that doll will become the most perfect girl "Alice".



The similarities and style may be the same for the main characters "Victorica and Shinku". Both are so full of themselves and confident in everything that they do.

Gosick is going to be aired on January 2011 (at least, that is what i think). I look forward in watching the series and i hope that it will be interesting and funny as well.

Thinking of making Manga/Anime Reviews

Well, I won't deny that Genshiken is 90% responsible for this "wanting to make manga/anime review mood swing" of mine. I really felt good when i managed to say a few things about the anime here and there. I think i might post similar posts after i read a manga or watched an anime. We'll see what happens next, till then i need to quickly get over Genshiken xD!

It really is a P in the A >_>
can't get over it.

Can't get over Genshiken >__>

It really is funny, the first time i saw this manga was at least 2 years ago. I didn't read it at that time because i have so many manga's in my list and i completely forgot it until now. I was made aware of its existence when i was browsing one of my favorite manga sites and i saw it flash on the list. At first, i clicked it just to see what it is. Then i remembered seeing the same manga a few years ago.

Since i was resting from my online job "at that time" I just wanted to kill some time and said to myself "Why not?". Before i knew it, i was clicking page over page...and finishing it straight in 2 days. I don't know what to say. The characters and plot may not seem interesting to other people, but to me it had a "great impact". I don't occasionally read manga's that have the "slice of life" feature, but reading them once in a while felt really good.

Before i knew it, i was addicted to the story and i watched the anime version as well. The anime was good, it strictly followed the manga and I spent the whole day watching season 1 and season 2. It was messy, it was funny, it was crazy and most of all, sometimes i just don't know what to say.

My reason for writing now is to release all that tension in my head. I really don't know why, but unless i write it down I might not get over it. As I was doing my work, i can't help but think about the story and i'm not being productive per se~
Seriously, this is probably the second time this happened to me and i really just need to "Write it down".

I really fell in love with one of the characters and she goes by the name Ogiue. I remembered from way back then, that i really like the "tomboy type" girls and wanted to have one as my Girlfriend. But then again, i guess that is really hard to find in the real world. A possibility of a matchup like that is probably 2%. Still, the show managed to catch my interest and I'm probably one of the thousand (if not millions) of people that is happy that the manga is continued. I just hope that there is hope for a season 3. I mean, there is still a lot left unfinished and it has been....3 years since Genshiken has been sleeping.

I really need to start writing on my work now and i think I'm feeling better. Writing down this stuff helped me calm my nerves. More importantly, i think it will still take me a couple of days to recover from the manga/anime.

LU live is just around the corner and i really want to see the Phoenixians go all out and win the championship. Whether we win or Lose it's alright, The most important thing is the time we spent together and the things we did together.

For now let me say this...I jsut can't get over Genshiken....Damn it! ~__~

Back to work...and time to write some articles.

The End of the Beginning...and the Beginning of one Thing

September has been a great month and it was very exciting indeed. A lot happened and let me tell you just a few. Phoenix finally had the chance of going to LevelUp live for the Championship of Rohan Online (which is of course, i am a member of the clan). We also had a few discussions here and there and we finally decided that it is time to fly and challenge ourselves in a new game. We decided to try Aika Global (An international Online game with a lot of players) to test our skills and our wills.

We also enjoyed quality time with each other (The Guild) in a Resort in Bulacan (A place in the Philippines). Goodbyes are really hard to do because as you know, it is hard for those that will leave...and those that is left behind.

Phoenix has grown into something that was almost deemed impossible a few years ago.
A dream of a single individual and supported by many.
Dreams can be turned into realities, Just extend your hand and grab the opportunity.
People will hate you, will love you, will respect you and will humiliate you.
But through it all, without a doubt.
You will find others that share the same commitment and them alone will make you proud.

My rantings in this post is not just for show, It is my feeling when sparks fly and neon lights glow. I hope that someday there will come a time.
When our light will shine brightest and be known for all time.
Till that fateful day arrives, I will tell you this.
Don't be afraid to Lose, Don't be Afraid to Fall.
The sweetest of victories will be achieved after the Fall.
Pride is a sin and is a curse.
Everyone has it, will fight for it, will even die for it.
I am no exemption and that is true.
This place i hold now, those people that i knew.
I hope that happiness and sadness will see them through.

To those that will still follow the winds that we ride.
Support the feathers and help us in our flight.
The people around you might tell you this.
With the left i will hold you,
With the right i will protect you
The rest i will leave it all to you.

With all the things i said, and all that i will ever say.
Thank you for everything and for making us stay.
The world goes round and from the top you will go bottom.
Rise up, Fly up and move forward to tomorrow.
Just like the Phoenix in its flight in the skies,
Take the challenge and all that will rise.
Make your stand and endure the defeat.
It is bitter and painful but is needed to succeed.

A new chapter may had been written,
a new story has been told.
But, rest assured there are still a lot left untold.
I will ask you to be patient,
For i will tell you with patience.
The tale on which Phoenixians only Know.

Keep the Flames Burning.
