~Anime Rambling~

So far I am REALLY enjoying the anime, The Twelve Kingdoms. Of course it varies from the book in some instances, and then doesn't vary so much in other instances. But versions I can appreciate it, and Youko just kicks all sorts of ass even though the first episode I was ambivilant toward her (the book, well it was the same, in the beginning she was annoying because she was like all 'cry I can't do anything". In terms of girl coming to a magical country from modern times, I think that this is my favorite, because the girl ends up being kick ass. When you read the book, by the end of the book, you can tell that she's evolved ALOT. I can't wait to read more. >.>

I've also not made an icon in a while. o_o Can you believe that? Though I'm sorta wanting to icon the series I'm currently watching. And I've been browsing Hongfire in between random splurts to Gaia Online. Also both I and

shuufish are doing a 1920s RP. It's absolutely awesome. And I actually got to start this RP out with Hakkai. *YAY*

Also, yaoi elitists make me sick. Granted I don't like rabid yaoi fangirls either.. but when you are publically flailing a fellow fan for not using proper terminology, (omg Gravitation isn't shounen-ai and yaoi involves explicit male hard on sex) then that is when I tell you to step away from the net, take a deep breath. It's just a fandom.. and buttsecks is NOT SERIOUS BUSINESS OMG. To those fangirls, I go.. OMG STFU GTFO OF FANDOM.

Does proper terminology really matter? There will be people who argue, but I don't care.. because I maintain that no you don't need to use proper terminology, it is enough that one 'knows' the difference.

Amen to that x.x

YES. I am loving The Twelve Kingdoms so much. I saw about 4 episodes and went out and bought the new boxsets. It's an amazing series (although, I'm still working my way through the discs). Gah, I could go on forever. >>;

I know, I can't wait to see more of it. >.> I really can't!

The Twelve Kingdoms seems to be another thing to add to my "must check out" catagory.

BTW- I checked out Gaia and I friended you since you're the only person I know there. I'm Stali_Anna yet again ':)

Fandoms are like extreme versions of political parties. We should listen to George Washington and get rid of the extreme sides of the spectrum~

Because usually Gravitation is the lead in to the great Buttsecks revolution

The thing that annoys me most about elitists of any kind is that they seem to lack the capacity to be helpful or just give constructive criticism. Rabid fangirls annoy me, but the elitists are the reason I stay away from most fandoms.

Yeah, I can see exactly. I am one of those fans that like what I like and don't really care what anyone else says.

Yay! I'm glad you've gotten in to the Tweleve Kingdoms anime! I haven't read the book yet, but I plan on doing so. I love the anime though, it gets very addictive I think. I'd like there to be more of it actually. Youko's pretty awesome, my favorite character is Keiki though. Where are you in the anime?

I just got through with Takki trying to sell them to the brothel.. the monkey guy is trying to instill doubts in her mind and Yuka is being as usual very unpleasant.

What a happy coincidence. I'm watching the Twelve Kingdoms too. It is different from the book and I'm not sure what to expect since the production was cut in episode 45, alleging they will make more when more books are published. But it is really a great series and I recommend it to all.

What part in the anime are you in right now?

I just finished episode 5 last night, Yuko went and joined up with the evil King. And her and Yuuko had a showdown, and the rat boy JUST found her. (YAY!) It's really good but I couldn't watch it through before reading the book. And then when I read the book, I HAD to watch it.

The rat boy is very clever. I think I have watched 10 episodes so far, and the show is really good. Did you found the book online or at the bookstore?

I totally agree about the yaoi elitists thing. D: but then again, elitists suck in general.

I mean, I usually refer to most as Yaoi because its a good sum-up term, I know it means the more hardcore stuff, but that doesnt mean I'm going to waste my energy explaining the difference between shounen-ai and Yaoi every time I have to say it.

When people get on your case for small things like that...its more than annoying.
