Excited For 2 Games Coming Out!

There are plenty of pretty awesome games that have come out  and will be coming up this year, such as Lollipop Chainsaw (which I think might be interesting to try out), Tomb Raider, Dead or Alive 5, etc.... But really, there are two games that I am really really looking forward to and definitely want: Persona 4 Arena and Animal Crossing 3DS.

For the past couple of years or so, I discovered the Persona series for the first time and instantly loved it! I loved the characters, the stories, and I really liked the social link system that was added in the 3rd and 4th installments of the game. When I found out about Persona 4 Arena was coming out, I literally screamed like a fangirl! Watching the teasers and trailers for it, I couldn't help it~! The whole game just looks beautiful, the characters maintain their anime profile images, but look more sharp, and their movements and attacks look so smooth and fluid! You can really tell that Arc System (makers of Guilty Gear, one of my most favorite fighting games!) was behind the animation of this game (For those of you who don't know, Atlus and Arc System teamed up to make P4 Arena). Another thing I really like about this game is that your choices aren't just limited to the P4 characters; they have included characters from P3 and other games (I think... Some of the characters I'm not too familiar with) as well! Each character has a combination of regular attacks and attacks using their personas, as well as a special. Another nice touch is that they implemented the use of status ailments! How cool is that? In my opinion, this game seems to be very promising! 

Yes, Animal Crossing may not be the most exciting or most action packed game around, but I've been a fan ever since it has been released for the Gamecube and have bought every single other Animal Crossing that has come out since then. I've always loved the charming and slow paced nature of it, the quirky animals, and being able to expand your house and decorate it any way you'd like. All of the AC games have pretty much kept the same formula, only adding a few new aspects to each new game... that is, up until now. Not only are you now able to do things such as swim and sit on tree stumps and benches (and I'm sure there's other things that have been changed too), but this time around, instead of mainly focusing on paying off all of your house debt to Tom Nook (and possibly getting the highest score possible from the HRA), you will now get to be the mayor of your town! With this new objective, I'm really interested in how this game turns out and if it really will have a noticeable difference in game play compared to the previous AC games. Can't wait to find out!

I'll be keeping an eye out for both of these! Persona 4 Arena is scheduled to be released on August 7th, and Animal Crossing 3DS is still to be announced. Hopefully I won't have to wait too long! Lols!

SHENANIGANS!!!!!

I am so very disappointed.... I feel as if my soul has been desecrated and thrown into eternal darkness....Why? Because of Toonami... I loved Toonami back in the day... It had great shows and lots of kid-friendly anime (or at the very least, cleaned up versions of certain series) such as Dragon Ball, DBZ, Cardcaptors, Hamtaro, Rurouni Kenshin, Yuyu Hakusho, and much more. I even remember waking up early in the mornings before school to catch episodes of Hamtaro. It was fan-freaking-tastic! :D Once Toonami had been discontinued, it felt like my childhood memories had been crushed.... Ever since then, I had been hoping it would return to Cartoon Network again.

Fast forward some years later, and Adult Swim announces that Toonami is being revived! I was a little skeptical as to why Adult Swim was the one to bring it back and not Cartoon Network, but I didn't care. I was so excited over it and I almost couldn't believe it! It just seemed too good to be true... and alas, it was. What has been "brought back" isn't the Toonami I used to know and love.... It's more like the old Adult Swim, you know, back when it mostly  consisted of anime targeted at a more mature audience with shows like Cowboy Bebop, FMA, etc. (even then, it's still not quite as good as the old lineup it had since shows like Inuyasha, Trigun, and Samurai Champloo haven't even been included) I think that's cool and all, but it's NOT Toonami. It's a farce! TT_TT Nice try, Adult Swim, but what you just did just doesn't cut it. Unless you somehow happen to bring Sailor Moon, Samurai Jack, Gundam Wing, Tenchi, and all of those other shows, and air them every morning and afternoon, you aren't worthy of the title Toonami. :P

"On behalf of the moon, I will right wrongs and triumph over evil..."

I was so stoked to have found a Sailor Moon sticker! x3 I used to be so obsessed with that show when I was little, so I kind of freaked when I saw it. xD I always thought Sailor Moon was kind of a good role model for girls, even though she was an anime character. Think about it, at the end of every episode, they had that one segment called "Sailor Moon Says..." that had good lessons to teach, such as being kind to others, being responsible, and not judging others by their appearance, and of course, much more. ^_^ It really influenced me as a child to be as good as I could be in hopes to be like her. Amazingly, the things that I learned from just that tiny part of the show still stuck with me as I grew older, too! :D It's a shame that most cartoons and shows now don't have lessons to teach or a moral. Most of it is mostly compiled of random garbage that really does rot your brain. Seriously, I feel like I lost a few brain cells watching some of the newer stuff on Cartoon Network (though I have to say, Adventure Time and Regular Show are still pretty funny despite being completely random).


Anyways, after thinking of where to place the sticker, I finally decided to put it on my laptop. Take a look! ^.^

Yeah, I've also got Chrono from Chrono Trigger on here, too. :3
