EPTOh wow they just went from awful comedy to fucking hillarious. Really loose connection and the burning house scene was pretty ridiculous.
Oh well, finally soon time for the grand rant, yes?

O boy I'm in a burning exploding building better pull out my cellphone and call Misaki to find out if she's ok... Oh burning pieces of wood are falling on me better just brush them off.

And they like intentionally threw you off track the entire time of who the dead person was, they both have soooo little lines it just didn't cross my head that they might be involved that much in the story.

I meant more how the connection between the two was poorly done cos they don't really look alike at all imo unless you really go into ridiculous tiny details. I can accept the end of it but it could have been way better done. And blindly a linking a picture with someone else doing the job for you is pretty ridiculous aswell. | ||

Why?" and her parents mourning her death for the past two years. | ||

I did pick up most of what was in the images, but I don't know if you were expecting people to go through the class rosters with a fine-toothed comb. That's a bit much. | ||

Incidentally like I said last page, other than hair coloring (mostly a lighting thing), the two are actually pretty similar.

Going through the class list is overkill and a luxury not offered by the source, but it was a set of simple deductions once we confirmed an April death. Incidentally, the pics are somewhat wrong and really off context. There has been nothing to shown that being outside of the town leaves your memories intact. The way that scene was done can be interpreted a number of ways, none of them conclusive. Ep8 talk of funerals is also pretty inconclusive because of phrasing, the pic maker was just cherrypicking lines and ignoring context for that. The majority of the conversation clues are left very ambiguous and hardly even qualify as circumstantial evidence tbh. They are just there so that the studio has a way of going YO WE SMART WE GIVE YO HINTS YOYOYO at the end. The Akazawa past thing was so bad, one of the worst random insertions that PA works could've done. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Cute ending. Not that surprising that she came back relatively quickly. I want one of those cars Lemon was playing around with. It was interesting how they even included Manami's husband as part of MIB too, thought it was a bit fishy how she said that he told her to drive to this specific location to pick Kanna up. Overall, the series was pretty enjoyable, characters were alright, didn't beat around the bush pretending not to notice each other's feelings too long. Lemon was great. She needed more screentime. Kanna's voice actor is amazing up-n-coming too. 8/10. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/rEIft.jpg) What a boss! edit: I felt watching the ending to this is really hyping me up for the MIB 3 movie. Only to be severely disappointed by the lack of Lemon. | ||

Poll: Japanese cosplayers or Non-Japanese (specifically White) cosplayers Japanese (12) Who cares about this stuff!? (10) Non-Japanese (0) 22 total votes Your vote: Japanese cosplayers or Non-Japanese (specifically White) cosplayers (Vote): Japanese And what happened to necrophantasia, he disappeared after that argument about Manga Fox ripping off scanlators. :S I need to visit his blog again to see his pictures of the Madoka-themed shop. Oh, and Blasterion, I would much rather enjoy a Starcraft themed yuri short story then a BL one. My 2 cents.  | ||

I was recently googling Mizuki Nana Live Castle 2011 when I came upon Nagisama's blog post which documented his experiences at the event. I am breaking my long hiatus from visiting/posting on TL to publicly admit that I am a Nanatard. It has been a challenge coming to terms with what I can only describe as a malignant condition. It has slowly infected my soul over the past couple of years. But now that I am free of denial, the only thing that lies ahead of me is light. I can see more clearly than I've ever been able to see. I know what I must to to fulfill my purpose in life. Today I begin the process of planning my sacred pilgrimage to Japan to see Mizuki Nana perform live. I whole-heartedly believe that it is my sworn duty as a Nanatard to spend thousands of dollars on plane tickets, concert tickets, and a variety of Nana related goods and merchandise. As I do not speak Japanese, I am looking for people who can aid me in realizing my dream. Contact me if you have any ideas on how to better worship goddess Nana. | ||

Beezlebud episode 60 + Show Spoiler + They got big balls for ending the series right here because they will be losing their time slot on TV. They kinda screwed up the story a little but it probably okay because the series is pretty light hearted so they can just get hilda to be recaptured again or something along that line once the school get rebuild or something. So it can still fine. Fairy Tale episode w/e + Show Spoiler + wtf? Prepare to be bored with fillers for the next 100 episode. Exactly what I didnt want to see. Also, terrible way for a plot reset. Lastly, anyone read "Happy Project," it seems to be pretty damn new and it damn good so far being on 10 chapter in. Basically 3 guy and 3 girls forced to live in an apartment when they turned 18 for a month hoping to find a potential spouse within that time or be shunned by society. This has become a law in japan to counter the law birth rate. This series had a pretty surprisingly interestingly original setting and plot that I wont ruin but it really pick up after chapter 5. | ||

But I guess the arcs were so good and that they were topping each other one after another, that there had to be a down point sooner or later. I wanna beleive that the mangaka is gonna be clever with this, and not just make it a lazy/cheap move. Laxus arc > Wendy arc > Edolas arc > Tenjou Island. Each arc was getting better and better and better, I had a hard time imagining any arc topping Tenjou Island arc. I felt like there was enough material to keep going. I mean after Tenjou Island arc, we got Master Ivan arc next. Then they would start on the dragons. We barely scratched the surface, with dragons in Fairy Tail. So far theyve just shown Acnologia, and hes one badass motherfcker. He definitely carries an ominious feel to him, which I absolutely love: even with all the magic bullshit going on in the Fairy Tail world, they still manage to make something as trivial as dragons seem super badass. Only other dragon scenes we got was after Laxus' arc, where Grandine went to talk with Igneel and she pissed him off. I hope we get to see more stuff like this really soon. But... Since its starting to be a real popular anime, I can see the mangaka milking this series for all its got. The definite downfall of all good shounen-esque series = / | ||

I'm not bothered by it too much though, since the current episodes that are considered 'filler' or 'boring' are still pretty enjoyable to me. So meh | ||

Heh, I find it slightly amusing how the blog is actually the #2 result on google if you search that. After that concert and coming back, I ended up replacing almost half my playlist with Nana songs. KazeHydra's a much, much, bigger Nana fan than I am though. So you can ask him about it too. On March 27 2012 22:34 MichaelEU wrote: Necrophantasia is still translating, afaik.

Did the manga author stop again? or just no one is translating it? | ||
