RABU RABU TENKYOKEN ending and shit.

It's a pity that Asura Cryin' had to end so soon, after things started picking up. Maybe if they starting throwing out the more awesome ideas sooner, instead of making it seem like a generic mecha/fantasy show in a high school setting, less people would've thrown it out within the first five episodes. Then there's the whole situation with everyone changing sides and backstabbing each other, just to rejoin later, every few episodes. That made shit confusing. Also, what really bothered me about the ending was the fact that Natsume had trouble picking between Kanade and Misao, even though he told Kanade that he loves her, earlier in the show. Oh, well... At least Nia is a loli again.

Always take candy from strangers.

...and I'm totally looking forward to episode 12.

I found this on Gelbooru a few days ago, and I just had to post it here.

Amu can be so clueless sometimes.

I was going to post a rant about how people prepare for Christmas as early as mid-October, but decided that this is a lot more interesting.

Also, I started watching Reideen, if you can't tell.

GODDAMNIT, SATELIGHT, KEEP YOUR PIME TARADOXES OUT OF THIS SHOW.

[20:45:36] <+nicepants> telling people to watch logh in the suggestion forum is more entertaining than filling out job apps or writing code or writing words
[20:45:51] <+llxwarbirdxll> wat
[20:46:00] <+Feez> Heh
[20:46:01] <+llxwarbirdxll> writing words is more fun than writing words?
[20:46:20] <+Feez> yes it is
[20:46:29] <+llxwarbirdxll> also
[20:46:33] <+nicepants> writing a novel more like
[20:46:40] <+llxwarbirdxll> if anyone tells you to watch .hack//SIGN
[20:46:43] <+llxwarbirdxll> don't do it
[20:46:46] <+nicepants> november is national novel writing month
[20:46:48] <+llxwarbirdxll> shit's fucking boring
[20:46:49] <+Feez> isn't that some jrpg series
[20:46:50] <+nicepants> and i am participating
[20:46:55] <+llxwarbirdxll> I heard
[20:47:00] <+llxwarbirdxll> I don't want to join
[20:47:01] <+Feez> oh, you mean nano or w/e?
[20:47:12] <+nicepants> nanowrimo
[20:47:12] <+Feez> I know someone who was a winner or something for that last yr
[20:47:22] <+llxwarbirdxll> there are no winners
[20:47:27] <+llxwarbirdxll> just people who finish writing their books
[20:47:30] <+nicepants> a winner just means you wrote a 50000 word novel in a month
[20:47:43] <+Feez> I see
[20:47:57] <+Dryst> just get a pdf certificate and a web badge
[20:48:05] <+llxwarbirdxll> it doesn't appeal much to me
[20:48:28] <+llxwarbirdxll> since you won't have much time to review it to check for errors and what-not
[20:48:33] <+Dryst> i have a friend who is already at 11,000 words
[20:48:45] <+llxwarbirdxll> owow
[20:48:46] <+Feez> what if you write a really long 50k work shitty novel
[20:48:49] <+Feez> word*
[20:48:57] <+nicepants> thats fine
[20:48:59] <+llxwarbirdxll> yeah
[20:49:07] <+nicepants> its not like you have a publishing deal or anything
[20:49:13] <+llxwarbirdxll> they even say that all the novels will be shit
[20:49:16] <+Dryst> yeah its not like you are writing the next masterpiece
[20:49:25] <+Feez> oh
[20:49:41] <+nicepants> mine is basically a collection of short stories about failure in a lame framing device
[20:50:14] <+llxwarbirdxll> I actually have an idea for a story
[20:50:16] <+nicepants> 50000 words in a month comes to something like 1600 words a day
[20:50:23] <+llxwarbirdxll> it's basically about this guy
[20:50:24] <+nicepants> im already so behind
[20:50:28] <+llxwarbirdxll> who reads a book
[20:50:29] <+llxwarbirdxll> out loud
[20:50:38] <+Feez> gee that sounds kind of interesting
[20:50:42] <+llxwarbirdxll> indeed
[20:51:30] <+Dryst> he reads a book out loud and ?
[20:51:36] <+llxwarbirdxll> that's it
[20:51:38] <+nicepants> "'"it was the best of times, it was the worst of times", he said' he said"
[20:51:43] <+Feez> lol
[20:51:44] <+Dryst> lol
[20:51:52] <+llxwarbirdxll> kinda like that
[20:52:00] <+Feez> that sounds like a winner to me
[20:52:17] <+llxwarbirdxll> and he can read Index for maximum effect
[20:52:38] <+Dryst> its super effective!
[20:52:40] <+llxwarbirdxll> Index as in the light novel series
[20:52:56] <+nicepants> that would be the most meta thing ever
[20:53:02] <+llxwarbirdxll> because Misaka likes to narrate her own life
[20:53:07] <+llxwarbirdxll> or something like that
[20:53:24] <+llxwarbirdxll> it would
