fair enough ;o i havent actually played any of them but i just used to like watching pokemon ahah XD
Well I watched pokemon in TV, but I never actually bought a consol, I only played them later on pc on emulator so I was kinda cheating on it xD And I guess I collected and played pokemon cards a bit.
im not really into any games at all so i sometimes envy i cant join in on gaming convo, but then again with my time table i dont really have time to sit down and play a proper game ;w;
I'm not really playing anything right now as well. And I guess I don't have a lot time to spend on them as well. Mostly cos there is so much things to do, so little time. Not to mention my laptop is really weak, so I can't even run most of modern games anyway x3"
wwwwhhaaaatt?! no coffee? XD i would die i need it like air, not even kidding, i experimented going without coffee for a week and the results were apualling ahahaha
I just don't like drinking stuff that doesn't taste good to me, so I don't drink coffee cos I tried it once or twice and I didn't like it. Granted I think it was black coffee and I didn't really try anything else, but... at this point I kinda got used to not liking it, so I don't feel like trying x3" Also I guess there is not much times when I really need it to keep me awake. Or if I do, I just force it. I tried to drink energizers but they totally don't work on me. I think it is because I drink a lot of coke and it has (I think) some caffeine in it, so my body is too used to it.
ah but honestly its good that its dark magic to you! caffine is one hell of an addictive betch OwO and people take it in in many forms like redbull cough Aono cough. but yeh if you survive days without coffee thats gooooood >w<
Well drinking coffee is supposedly healthy and in some diets it was suggested as only thing for breakfast, but yea, it gets pretty addictive and also drinking too much during day can be bad. Not to mention you can't drink it if you actually want to go to sleep. So much restrictions with it.

wow a roleplay game and you were a kitty? how adorable! @/w/@ im stupid for asking but is this like a legit game where you design charecters and move around with them or just a chat orrrr? i just litrally have o idea about anything sos heh Q/w/Q
Nah np ;3 Role playing game is a game where there is some setting, like a world and rules how your characters, their abilities etc. affect the world. You usually use dice to decided the outcome of events and your characters have stats like intelligent, appearance, strength etc. which you increase by leveling up character by gaining experience through sessions. There is a rulebook that has all those things explained and based on it you create your own character. One player is a Game Master, they are like the gods of the world, they create how it looks based on setting, create neutral characters and act for them and basically create a story for other players so they can play and interact in this world. And all this is basically in imagination. The original idea was for sever people to gather, create their characters and then through regular sessions progress in game. Some stuff depends on setting, but basically the idea is that you make your own character you can "role-play" and experience a unique story through them. I guess like writing a book or playing a game but where you can do literally everything. You can also play it over chat if you are unable to meet in on place how it was in my case cos we were all from different countries. Playing like that has its cons and pros though.
And later it was adapted into normal video games, but clearly the trade off was that it wasn't truly unlimited anymore and you couldn't role-play your character any way you want. And then later those "rpg elements" got popular and everyone started to shoehorn them into every kind of game, so rpg become more know for having stats and lvling your character up rather than the whole "role-playing" it.
The game we played was called Vampire Masquerade, so we were basically a bunch of vampires hiding in current times. My character belonged to clan that can shapeshift into one chosen animal and I choose cat... cos I love them 8D Seriously thought, I just got a idea for character that was pretty detached from world and cat-like from nature so once she was turned into vampire she just realized she prefer to lives her life as a cat than a human and so she did. That was her background and the session picked up from the moment she meet rest of players and was forced to go with them, but you get the idea ;3
Also funny fact, I never really named her cos I suck at coming up with names and I just left it for later, so for entire time I just had her character sheet named Kitty. And all others players adapted to call her Kitty before we started so once we did, they were so used to it, they never asked her for her name. Well they did later once I mentioned it and I was going to answer "I forgot", cos she spend like 30 years as a cat so she pretty much forgot all about her past life and it did fit into her character, but that was still kinda funny and lame way for me to avoid naming her xD
ahaha it does have a cute ending i pretty sure so yeh, if you ever feel like it pick up watching it again! >wO
I will ;3
last time ive done that was with katanagtori for some reason O-o i will contnui it soon though hopfully!
Oh, Katanagatari! I loved this show! I know it is based on light novel and that it is very dialog heavy, but I liked the main characters interaction so much I totally didn't mind. And the show looks beautifully and has one of best soundtracks I ever listen too. I still listen to it regularly. And of course I liked the plot. Except for 1 confrontation, to me the entire series was just a masterpiece. You totally should watch it when you can and we can talk about it then! Also funny fact, I was watching it as it was airing and it was airing monthly, because the idea of the show is that since start of first episode, the episode + time between episodes, takes 1 month so by releasing it monthly (all episodes did were the double length, but still) you will spend the same amount of time watching as it took the characters to complete the story. I thought that was a really unique and interesting way to air/promote anime.

I'm sure it will! How far are you with the manga? Which chapter, I mean.
We are currently on 12 volume, 50 chapter was the last.
Uh, nice. Didn't know that actually.
I read in some interview. Basically when they were agreeing to adapt it into anime, he made a ultimatum. I believe it was something like manga has to be at least 8 volumes ahead before they can make another season.
But yes, that was a wise choice. That way it will stay true to the original work.
Sure, they took some liberties here and there, but I agree, it works in the favor of the anime. They will have enough material to adapt, so they won't have to worry about stretching stuff to fit into episodes. Actually it just shows how much author values his work. Usually they make next season right away when the series is fresh and people are hyped, but usually they are forced to filler it or rush or there is never second season (unless they didn't plan to make it in the first place). It is clear author didn't want anime to be turned into another money grab and wanted for it to be made with the same care he puts into his manga. I don't know if you know this, but originally he went to shounen jump to publish it, but he was rejected. They told him the art was too dark and ugly and there was too much dark stuff, so he was supposed to make it more friendly and, well, more shounen like in general. But he refused and kept on looking for different publishers until he found the one that accepted his idea. It just shows how much he don't like bending his vision to other peoples whims and since series become such a hit despite its art style and dark themes, we can safely say that he made a right choice.
Wish they had done the same for some other ongoing manga/anime stuff as well.
I'm not a big fan of filler episodes either.
Yea, I totally feel you on that ;/
I always love comments on the things I like, so please go ahead and do tell whenever you're ready ^^b
Finished listening to Silent Hill soundtrack and it was good as well ;3 It reminded me. I never played any game (watched both movies with friend that was fan of games so she told me everything that was wrong with them) but I heard it can be pretty troll-ly at times. I still can't believe not only there is so many ending, but one of them is that dog did it XD
And I'm back to writing walls of text T__T
EDIT/ To make it even more multi cultural I'll share something from one of few Poland bands I'm listening to:
