Being an (ex)geek, I was stuck at the science section of kinokuniya for a few minutes. Ok, fine, it was more like half an hour, and I was chosing between a “how to apply statistics to everyday life” kind of book, to this “How Big is Your Brain?“.

Anyway I chose the big brain book, so this book is written by Ian Livingstone, the co-author from the Ian Livingstone / Steve Jackson Fighting Fantasy series. If at this point, you are still not interested, it’s either you are:

A fake gamer
Not a gamer
Having no idea what’s going on. Why are you reading this anyway? It won’t make any sense to you.

The cool thing about this book, is that it’s a somewhat IQ Quiz book, in a gamebook format. It’s almost like re-living your childhood! Hohohohoho! I’m so happy I found this gem.

Zombie Powder

Now this I will spend some time writing about this.

Because I personally find Bleach very draggy. Guess what. Same author! Happens that it was cancelled after 4 books, because it was not well received. Tamade. I liked this ok.
Which I have a sinking feeling that those who borrowed this from me actually sold it after they realised that it’s the first book by the guy who wrote Bleach.

Now I’ll just look like a Bleach fanboy when I try to buy my missing pieces.

Please shot yourself if you have not read this. Then continue reading.

Nice. Same league as DBZ, but not so much fighting tho.

Yakitate!! Japan

Anime is about a boy who tries to bake ja-pan. Japan’s best bread : x

Pretty cheesy sometimes but it’s not too bad if you want something moderate. Remember to check out the referee’s facial expressions.

Wolf’s Rain

Very artsy fartsy drawing.

Not _too_ bad. Some people like this alot. But of course overrated again.

Voices of a Distant Star

Another sad anime. I like this too : )

Considering I watched this after Saikano it’s pretty good.

Visions of Escaflowne

kenshinjeff — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 05:48:20 +0000

Quite nice. I liked it. Don’t mind if someone passes me this again.

Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle

kenshinjeff — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 05:47:40 +0000

This anime is sad. Well at least it’s relatively sad for me.

Other than the fact that it’s drawn by dig my eyes out clamp. The anime is pretty good. Has crossovers from other Clamp anime so it’s pretty cool.

I will NEVER read this btw.

Better known as: 天地无用!

One of my first anime. Actually I think it IS my first anime. The ova is better than the tv version, pretty much the same storyline though.

I like it : )
