Code Geass: Sexy bishounen, bishoujo, and MECHAS!!!

-
Somehow I can always find more good anime even after watching an amazing one as Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood which has so much caliber.

So after getting depressed over FMA Brotherhood ending, I thought about all the anime I saw in pictures but never watched and came across none other than the Code Geass series.

The series is VERY good. Story and animation both A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and thankfully, consistent as well. I'm so happy that anime coming out these days are consistent in their quality. Basically the story is about this hot guy named Lelouch (exiled prince of Britannia) who fate has it, meets a mysterious girl that gives him the power of "Geass." This grants him the power to tell people to do whatever he wants. So he goes ahead and uses it to bring down the Britannian Empire (who is in the process of taking over every country on Earth) so he can make a better world for his disabled sister. That's about it in a nutshell.

I didn't watch it all this time, maybe because I just wasn't sure about it. My bro watched this before me and he would always joke about how all the male characters have no penis, lmao. It makes sense though because YES, I admit I am a bit of a perv, but the dudes in this anime wear REALLY tight spandex suits (come on, we can't help but look there!) and there's nothing, not even space for one! lol I also find it funny that their legs/arms are ridiculously long and skinny. Damn anime characters having stick legs. lol But their eyes, *sigh* beautiful. I like to draw manga/anime so I always appreciate unique looking eyes. The animators did a great job.

I guess you just get used to the artwork after watching the anime. It really is beautiful and Lelouch especially is quite the pretty boy. I have a new respect for CLAMP after watching Code Geass. They come up with the most kick ass character designs. *Artwork from CLAMP above*. Their designs will give people eyegasms, I swear. (*_*)



SO! Unfortunately for naive me, when I borrowed the Code Geass DVD's, I ended up watching the R2 series first AKA, season 2 of Code Geass. AAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, how could I have been so dumb??!! The writers did a very nice job with the storyboarding though because I didn't really have any problem keeping up even if I didn't watch the first series. I was just confused with all the flash backs and would wonder, are they ever going to get to these? lol Little did stupid me know that the flashbacks were from season 1.
I saw the ending and was like (@o@)! WHY~~~~~~~~~~~~
***I won't give any spoilers if you haven't watched it but it's one of the best endings I've ever seen in an anime***

Now I'm watching season one online (sometimes I wonder why I borrow anime DVD's when I can find almost anything I want on the internet.. (-__-)

I highly recommend this series to anyone who likes action, a little romance, comedy, and a cool and original story.

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
