THIS ISN'T A PANCAKE!

I was bored, and I felt like going back to my old obsession of Nabari no Ou. I missed it. I was browsing around, checking for new AMV videos when I FOUND THIS!

Abridged yaaaaay!

This is a new side of Miharu, had he been sarcastic and a tad paranoid. And what is best, he loves pancakes.

Of course Kouichi still looks like a complete stalker.

WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME HOME!

And also, Kumohira-sensei still looks completely useless.

I love some of the soundtrack songs they use. Like Persona 3 and Shadow of the Colossus (Ico).

Had it been me who made it thought, I would have done some Yaoi jokes XD. But it wasn't, sooooooooo nada.




Enjoy!

Corpse Party

I am not a huge fan of horror games myself. They tend to leave me with pretty interesting dreams, and my imagination can go so far beyond what I usually see in movies or games. But, for some unexplainable reason, I decided to try this horror game called Corpse Party. All I could say is that I saw that it had very good reviews, and wanted to give it a try.

I think it is cursed. For all the days that I played, I had horrible dreams. They stopped when I decided to stop playing the game. So, for me that counts as cursed. But it is incredibly good. Not only are the Japanese still the masters of horrible stories (taking out their cliches), but the characters are very realistic as well (taking out they look like animes).

It's about this group of teenagers who "mysteriously" are spirited away to this school called Heavenly Host Elementary School (now, that name for me is scary already) where is full of not only ghosts, but decaying bodies in such a horrible conditions where is easily noticed how they died in a painful, slow way.

Not surprisingly, not all the dead bodies there were killed by the ghosts. If anything, most of the killings were done by the living. Makes perfect sense to me.

Now, the characters. I liked that instead of develop this "hidden knowledge" of how to handle a weapons they randomly found (like sooooome games I know...), they reacted as someone in reality would have done have they been in their position. They screamed like girls, and run.

So, pretty much the whole time you are trying to find out where the heck are you, scare the shit out of you for all the dead bodies everywhere, avoid ghosts at all cost, and run away from enemies (which, as I mentioned before, are not all dead).

Here is a very good preview of the game



Mind you. Do remember that Japanese like to follow their cliches. So, for me at least, it was pretty obvious from very early in the game what was reaaaaally going on with the story. But was still surprising nonetheless on the ends. Yes, plural. You can get aaaaaaaaall kinds of ends on this game. It really depends on what you do, and not do. Kind of refreshing from my other games where usually they are either with one end only, or have no end at all *cough*skyrim*cough*.

If I already got your attention on this game, and you don't mind a little of spoiling, here is a very good video of the game too:




This video might show that suddenly all the characters of the game die. But that is why I mean with this game having different kinds endings on each chapter. You can either kill them all, or get the good ending.

Unto the characters! We also have our cliches here. The usual tough guy with a very warm heart. The usual (or not) little sister who has not so sisterly love for her brother. The usual girl friend who takes too many liberties with your body, and might not have such friendly love either. The usual girl who is so naive that you already know she is going to die first.

And the not so usual.

The guy with an obsession of death (thought, for me, that's becoming usual). The guy with a freaky schadenfreude. The girl who REALLY loved her sensei so much, she would do ANYTHING for him. And the little girl who would also do ANYTHING for her mother too. Do make a note on my capitals.

And of course, as Japanese often do. If they have something for the Yuri fans. They also have something for the Yaoi fans! Pffff....



Leaves a bittersweet feelings the extra chapters of the game...

Anyway! I really enjoyed the game, and I will never EVER play it again! 8D

Have a great day everyone!

That Game from ThatGameCompany

Okay, so I recently had been looking out for good games to play ever since I finished Skyrim.

I was playing the Back to the Future the game, but I know that anybody who hasn't seen the movies won't understand A THING of what is going on with the game. Besides, not only did Marty looked like Harry Potter (I swear...), the story had also broken some "golden rules" from the movie's universe.

But the voice-actors were amazing, I give them that.

I stumbled across a review from XPlay about this game from ThatGameCompany (yes, sorry. I had to do that) called Journey. I only read very good comments and reviews of the game, so I decided to give it a try.

Wow.

Everything was very well structured for this game. Not only are the graphics (for a PS3) amazing, but it really gives you a feeling of a mythical journey to a very ancient magical place. There is very little story, but you really get the idea of what happened in that world, and why it is the way it is. You can play by yourself or go along with companions that you stumble across the world.

The best part of the game is that you don't talk. You sing music tones. No more whining, or crying or asking awkward questions. You play your tunes, and if the other person gets you or not is up to them. You can improvise as much as you want with this game.

So simplistic yet artistically beautiful. No matter how many times I play this game, I go back and play it again.

And again.

And again.

I actually got all the trophies from this game, something I have never gotten before.




Here is a small trailer of the game. It's as short as the game, but still very good.

Okay, I am done. I know I promised about the fanart and fanfics for my next posts, but I promise that I will have them posted this weekend at least.

Er, I think...

And here is a little something for a friend who put this imagine IN MY HEAD, THANK YOU. I hated myself for doing it, but I was laughing so hard at how it turned out. It's an image of Miharu from NnO... With troll face...

Yes, I can't believe I did it either.

*Warning, what comes next may be very traumatizing for everyone young or old*

Here it is:


Pfffff... No comment.

If you all wondering why I didn't do it to Yoite (*legasp*), is because I simply can. Although...He/she would really fit in the "forever alone" face... *kira'd.*

Have a nice day everyone.

Ja ne!

Back to the Present

Sorry for the title. I have been playing the game Back to the Future (YES, THERE IS A GAME), and have watched the movies all over again (an obsession of sorts in my family). It never surprises me why I always get so fascinated with Marty.

*cough* Anyway, back to what I wanted to say...

Wow! It has been SO LONG! The beginning of my "disappearance" was because I got somewhat occupied with Skyrim. I never really though a game could be so addicting, but boy was I wrong! I literally ceased to exist to everybody else, because in all my free time I was always playing that darn game. And I am the sort who wants to do EVERYTHING, just because I can. So I got to be a arch-mage, bard, werewolf, companion, stormcloack, daedric worshipper, nightingale, can't think them all... Dragonborn... After having done pretty much all the quest and mini-quests, I started exploring the whole map too. That world is big!

When suddenly my family sees me wandering outside of my room, they figured I was finally done with the game.

"Welcome to the land of the living!" They tried to be funny with me. "You got some explaining to do..."

I only had three words to say, "FUS ROH DAH!"

Then after that I had really difficult test coming up, egh... I had to study like crazy for all the slacking I did. But I am done with that too! Woohoo!

Aaaafter that I had family coming over. News that my sister is getting married-OH MY GAWD, IT IS THE END OF THE WORLD! And had all my obligations and responsibilities for her wedding already laid up on me. How in the world she expects me to prepare a party across the country, is something she only knows...

While going out with all my family, I invited a friend over. We all went into a fancy restaurant, and for some reason he wanted to look sophisticated and stuff. After finishing his meal, he wanted to "compliment" the chef on the meal. This is pretty much how it went.

"Er, excuse me."

"Yes, sir?"

"Could I have some more of this salsa? I have to compliment the chef. I have never tasted salsa more delicious than this."

"That is ketchup, sir."

*throws himself to the floor trying to stop his laughter*

"Nemy, get up! You are going to ruin your new nice clothes!"

Then... Either someone hacked into my brother's facebook, or he decided to "come out of the closet," because some of my friends decided to inform me (I am hardly ever in FB) that my brother loves d*cks. It took me a while to stop laughing too... And I also never informed my brother of the situation... Took him three days to notice *snorts.*

And now! I have found the best automobile EVER! I went to an airshow with a friend, when they presented to me a ROCKET-PORTA-POTY! A portable bathroom that can go up to 30 miles per hour! ISN'T THAT AMAZING OR WHAT?  One of the most awesome methods of transportation ever! No more bathroom breaks! Pffffffffff......... I wish I could have taken a picture of that... But it was too far away. I was just so wishing for someone to actually have been using that bathroom while it was being shown in the performance. That would have been the cherry on top XD.

And it also sounds like some cool for superheroes to drive...

"Hurry, Miharu! To the Rocket-Porta-Poty!"

*transitional music Batman style!*

Anyway! I do have some fanarts that I will be showing up soon. Some final updates to my fanfics, and more pictures because for some reason I have been fascinated lately of taking picture of the international food I have eaten... Weird... Oh! And a Renaissance fair I also went! It was really cool too.

Have a great week everybody!
