Damn... I'm absolutely torn between Marika and Kosaki now..... if only this was a VN....
Of course, the anime probably wont go anywhere with any of them, maybe you guys who already read the manga could tell me if anything actually happens (no spoilers).

The whole show was pretty boring to me before Marika appearance.. I was glad that I didn't drop it when I saw Marika first appearance

Yep. My issue with VNs isn't interactivity but rather how static they are. They just aren't very good at setting up a scene in comparison to books etc.

aren't books much more static than VNs?
and again, it depends on which one(s) you've played.

Static as in plot, setting up situations, action build-up, etc. are pretty lame.

I didn't know this came out:
http://www.amazon.com/Halo-Evolutions-Essential-Tales-Universe/dp/0765315734

I read his previous 4 Halo books and they were all difficult for me to put down because they were so intense. I might give these a go too:

I'm sad to see the direction the Halo franchise has taken after Halo 3. Halo: Reach was particularly disappointing having read Eric's book beforehand. >.>

Yep. Basically this. Everything within the medium adheres too heavily to the popular tropes and limits of the form. Not to mention they are all waaaaaaaaaaaay too verbose.
 
MG Sinanju snap build.


 
 
^HG Banshee Norn size comparison.
 
Sort of regretting getting the titanium finish ver now. Bought it back when I didn't think I would get into painting and now that I have the nub marks are annoying the hell out of me. Not that bad once it's all built though. Shield, weapons, painting and decals still to do.

I dunno, I think it looks beautiful as it is already, but I guess I'm just uncultured when it comes to gunpla, lol.

Wah, that's quite the coincidence. Today I was trying to see what the neutral density filter does for the camera I have at hand (not much from what I took), and today that filter happens to be in the "photo of the day" on Wikipedia.

That's a very dramatic difference.

It doesn't help that that photo is overexposed to hell though... >.>

Been listening to this album recently... So epic! :D

Hehe, I went and bought probably $20 worth of Asian junk food tonight at Uwajimaya and Daiso.

Yeah honestly the nub marks aren't that easy to spot if you don't know what to look out for. Worse for me since I know where every single one is............
 
Sidonia 6.
**** it. Bit annoyed with the time-skip setup but oh well. It was effective. Hoshijiro was too damn nice to die raaaaaaawr. Death flags from the moment she appeared in the show though lol.

That was the whole point of the photo...
"The purpose of a standard photographic neutral density filter is to reduce the amount of light entering the lens. Doing so allows the photographer to select combinations of aperture, exposure time and sensor sensitivity which would otherwise produce overexposed pictures."


Eh, that album is okay. Not my cup of tea. Their Lovelight album is way better in my opinion since they contain Touhou remixes, whose compositions are mostly always enjoyable. XD
Speaking of Cloud 9, has anyone seen "Cyborg 009"? I saw that soundtrack at the Kinokuniya Bookstore today and it reminded me of a mix between Astro Boy's art style and Mighty No.9.

Oooooooooh, that's why the characters looked so familiar!

I used to watch this series on Cartoon Network! : D
