So, um. I made a video about BLAME!.

I actually had to change very little, because the BLAME! OVA is only one step removed from a music video anyway (read: EXTREMELY CONFUSING).

Actually, I think this video makes way MORE sense than the OVA.

So yeah.

I am so angry right now. Like... ARRRRRRGHHH

You need information from me to fill out a form after I've spent the entire day with you? Awesome. Oh, you need to call me to ask me more questions? And again? And again?

And again two hours later juuuust as I'm drifting off to sleep?

...to spend ten minutes blabbering in the most confusing manner possible until I finally wrestle out of you that your software only lets you print out the forms as a paper copy or in a proprietary format and you are apparently convinced that taking screenshots and emailing them to me won't work and also for some reason you can't print them out and scan them to me and now you want to fax them to me EVEN THOUGH I DO NOT HAVE A FAX MACHINE.

AWESOME. I'M GOING TO STAB SOMEONE :D

Pfffhahahahaa what.

Also: next app period is Soren. PUNCHING FACES.

GIIIIIIIIVE

So things have slowed down a little more for me now, at the end of a terrible ridiculous sickness that started last Saturday and is only now starting to lift. Aaaand it left me in a complete haze of fatigue and cold medicine-induced stupor. That shit is STRONG.

Now that I've healed up, let me say that

* Black Jack is a total dick, goddamn; he trolls his patients left and right
* Ooku is a spectacular manga so far, and I expect it will only get better
* I went through THREE FRIGGIN BOXES OF TISSUES THIS PAST WEEK, FFFFF
* Advance Wars is FUCKING HARD.

I was putting off reading Ooku, because its premise (75% of men in Japan die off, women take over all jobs) sounded interesting, it didn't sound REALLY interesting, until I started reading it and it was like MY GOD.

It touches on human trafficking, daughters used property and economic assets, harems, women being blamed and divorced for sterility... basically everything in gender reverse, WITHOUT being all "but what about the mens?!?!?!" And the shogun. The shogun is. Bad. Ass. Amaaaaazing.

Advance Wars is kind of like Fire Emblem, except every other level is Fog of War, and also the computer can see through the fog but you can't see more than two squares ahead of you, and he has fifteen rockets and a billion properties and tanks, and you are dead. Deeeeeeeaaaaaad.

It's... terrible. There's... air units, naval units, ground units, each with their own strengths, weaknesses, and units they can or can't attack TOO MANY VARIABLES AUGH.

I was sick this weekend.

RAGE.

I guess it's better than being sick when I absolutely have to go to work, but not really!

Ugh, my last few sicknesses have all followed the same, incredibly crappy course -- basically tons of post-nasal drip. Like coughing? Stuffy nose? NOT REALLY JUST A HORRID RAW THROAT that will be followed by occasional dry coughing fits for like two weeks after everything else is gone.

WHY.

I need a vacaaaation.

Oh, Hiso-Hiso.

HI I HEARD YOU WANTED TO VISIT THE UNCANNY VALLEY

Zelda is supposed to be an adventure series, I think, but most of the games I've played actually have some pretty terrifying elements in them.

And pretty much everything about Majora's Mask was horrifying if you thought about it. The statues were only one thing in the terrifying sea. There were the ReDead from OoT, of course, but then there's this man who is turning into one of them (a Gibdos, actually) while still alive, and then the giant psychotic moon that talks and threatens to crush the town ejects meteor tears that you can barter with another character, and then there's that poor Zora guitarist you serenade to his death so you can USE HIS FACE AND BODY and pretend you're him to his friends who don't know he's dead.

OMINOUS

By the way, when you first see this in Majora's Mask, you're like, "ahaha, well, 72 hours left, that's not bad" and then this is quickly followed by "FUUUUUUCK THE CLOCK IT'S MOVING OH GOD GET THE FAIRIES GET THEM MUST STOP TIME"

I am so tired!

I love Q.

Bridge Crew: OMG WTF IS THAT NOISE
Q: *appears, floating horizontally for some inexplicable reason*
Q: *is naked*
Q: *falls to the floor*
Bridge Crew:
Bridge Crew:
Q: Red Alert 8DDDD!

Awww, poor Ensign Redshirt.

MW just keeps getting stranger. Well, not stranger, exactly, but the antagonist is this apparently omnisexual psychopath who has sex with:
* the protagonist priest guy
* a lady who has a crush on the protagonist
* a politicians daughter
* his boss's daughter (who he kills in the process)
* his dog

And Tezuka.... well, he's not shying away from any of it. Like, there's actually a picture of the guy in the dark with the dog. He seduces the protagonist regularly. And so on, it's weird to see since I've NEVER seen US comics with this kinda stuff. Like if there's sex, it's usually "TEEHEE FADEOUT SEX".

The drawings are so different, too. I really like how Tezuka draws the ocean.

Tezuka is fucking hardcore. At first you're like, "ohhhh, this story is about a heist or a kidnapping or something" but then he's like,

FUCK NO

IT'S ABOUT A CHEMICAL WEAPON THAT GOT OUT ON AN ISLAND AND KILLED

EVERYONE

THEN THIS KID GREW UP AND STARTED RUNNING PEOPLE THE SHIT OVER WITH MOTORBOATS
