Thirteen Sugars? - Anime Rec

The final battle for Luigi's Mansion for Gamecube is bullshit. I don't get it. Instead of utilizing what you've been doing the whole game, they toss all this new crap at you. And do away with hearts. I've tried it over a dozen times and I think I've managed to knock Bowser's head off twice. I am displeased.

In better news: Oh my god, Trinity Blood. I just caught the first episode, but I'm hooked. Abel is... gah! Abel Nightroad is awesome. And Cardinal Caterina is, also - but I have trouble listening to her, as she's voiced by Sloth and it's really, really obvious. But mostly Abel is awesome. I loved him in the very beginning of the episode, and then at the end he became ten times cooler. Seriously, Abel is Hohenheim-cool. (And also kind of disturbing to listen to in the dub at parts, because he's voiced by the same VA who voiced Frank Archer in the FMA Dub). But he's still that cool. Also? The pope is adorable. I want to hug him.

The art is gorgeous, the music is amazing, and the storyline is original (to me). It's nice to see the Vatican being the good guys for once, and to see a bit of a new twist on the usual anime vampires. It has sort of a Vampire Hunter D feel, for me, but softer. I've wanted to see it since I saw a promo at Anizona Con, and I'm really glad that I did. I need to see more. Hell, if the series is as good as the first episode promised, I'll buy the DVDs.

I definitely recommend it for folks looking for a new anime to get into.

(And on closer inspection, a ton of the English cast of FMA does voices for this series.)

RPG Stuffs Mostly

Man, they don't make trolls like they used to. *shakes head* But maybe that's a good thing, considering it was trolls that forced me into friends only mode way back when.

landels_redux applications are open again! They'll close September 29th, and I know a few people were thinking of applying this time around. If you would still like to, go for it! For those of you just joining us, Redux is a multi-fandom survivor horror LJ RPG set in a mental institute. Daytimes are all normal - except for the nurses telling patients they're all crazy - but at night the monsters come out to play...

I play Lust and Maes Hughes, and would play more but there's a character cap of two. Something to keep in mind when applying. And man, it's a whole lot different than playing 14 characters in one game. Anyway, it's an awesome game as I've said before here, and full of amazing writers, really fun people, and a wide variety of characters. Check out the info page for more details! Since I know probably forgot stuff as I am super out of it tonight.

And now a quiz:
