Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka? Mid-Season-ish Ramble Review | Anime-Planet.com
Sometimes I wonder why I keep watching this show. It isn't that particularly great. I mean I'm giving this show 2 stars. Maybe I'm hoping that it will get better? Nope, probably not. That may have been my intention at the beginning, but that's not how it is now. Although, I may be immune to the ecchi/boob/panty shots, but I'll have to do a closer inspection if they toned it down some, because let's face it, I wasn't payign attention. I think I may be continuing this because I did start it and I want to see it to it's end, and strangely enough I don't feel like I'm wasting my time despite giving this 2 stars.
It feels like a typical ecchi, fight-bad-guys, show, but not quite. Can't put my finger on it, so I'll have to think about it some more.
Anyways, I have plans to do a video review when the show is finished and I'll post it here when the video is finished. :)

Me and My Parents
Despite what I say about my parents to anyone I meet or anyone who reads this post, I love my parents unconditionally and I'll love them always. But there are just times where I want to scream and yell at them to get out of my life, and just slam the door at them, leave the house and be done with them once I cool down. I'm just not the kind of person who can do that.
I am a rather passive person, who once in a great while can explode. More often than not I get frustrated, and innocent people get caught in my little rampages. Usually I try to be clear of people when that happens, and usually apologize afterward if they are caught in the crossfire.
I must admit I really hate my passive nature when dealing with people. Part of it, is that I get tongue tied and can't express my opinion in words, and so it comes out wrong. It's because I say what I think (yes, I do edit myself before I speak, usually), but the words can't formulate right when I speak. Frustrating. I think it comes from my childhood because I didn't talk to a lot of people, so my mom did the talking for me. She didn't really force me to speak to strangers like when ordering food at restaurants. But let's be clear, it's only a partial reason. I was just a shy child to other people I didn't know. I didn't have the courage to speak with them directly.
Another part, probably, it's all speculation right now, was because my age to the rest of the family. The only person closest to my age is my sister, by fours years. Not to say I didn't have fun with my cousins, but I often was left out. I am the youngest cousin on both my dad's side and my mother's side of the family. On my Mom's side my youngest cousin is 29, and on my Dad's side 33 or 34. I'm 23, by the way. My oldest second cousin in 8 years old. So, I'm just stuck in the middle. Anyways, that's me being passive, unless you're one of my friends.
My problem now is stemming from my parents. Right now I am living with them, and have been living with for the past 6 months without a job. The situation is that I am waiting for one of my best friends to find a job here in Portland so that we can find an apartment together, but she lives in Eugene and currently has a job there, living an hour and half away. It's only problematic because I don't want to live with my parents, but my goal is to not have her to rush to find a job on my account. I am happy I have their support so I can stay at their house, and trust me they can't wait to get me out of the house either. It's a mutual agreement. I mean in the house my mom has her section on the downstairs and I have the other section to myself, so usually we are at peace. I take care of our small dog as my mom plays tennis during the day, otherwise, if I wasn't living there she would have to.
But let's face it, I am stressed from living there, not really having a place of my own where Mom doesn't butt in. Luckily, she ignores my room, but the fact is that I don't to spend my time in my room, so I'm downstairs during the day. This also means that I am forced to listen to the TV in the other room when she's home and can't enjoy the things I want to watch on my computer without the noise coming from the other room.
The only problem with my mother is when we do talk. More often than not we enjoy each others company and have many good conversations. It's when we don't is the problem. Our personalities clash because we are similar in maaany ways, much to my distaste. Our most recent argument was today. We had just watch episode 6 of The Tudors, and according to the DVD box episode 7 was supposed to be on the same disc as 4-6. I didn't know why 7 wasn't on the disc or how to access it if it was, so I came out with logical explanations which included a production error on the DVD covers and the episode is on the next disc. But according to mother it couldn't possibly be on the next disc because the DVD cover says it's on disc 2. Thus, accusing me that I thought she was lying because questioning anything = mom is lying. Bunch of BS. Not once did I think she was. The DVD cover was lying because the episode was on the next disc, and I got a lot of crap for trying to solve a problem. I love her, but she can be so narrow minded sometimes it just floors me.
And like always later after she yells at me I have a need to cry. Every fucking time she yells at me I cry. I don't know why. I mean I've always cried ever since I was little. My reaction to her yelling is crying whether I was mad at her or not for doing it. It just floors me. I can't stop. Something I should definitely see somebody about. It's not right. One day. When I can pay my own bills and I can pay for it without her noticing. Cus let me tell you, I don't want to be in my 40's and then have my Mom yell at me and I cry afterward
My dad, not much to say about him. I see him in the evenings, but don't worry, he is a pain in the ass. He doesn't yell, which I veeery grateful for, but he has a way of getting on my irritated side. The thing is that he'll do it on purpose. Mom still hasn't learned that he'll rile her up for the fun of it. *sigh* He's a pain, but I love him.
*whew* Glad to get that off my chest. Yeah, yeah, to everyone this just me complaining, but I feel better after typing it...mostly. But every time Mom yells at me for whatever reason I really want to complain to someone. Better to tell it to a stranger who doesn't know my Mom?

MB: What was elsewhere
Just so people know...not that anyone reads these blogs, but the name of my short comic is called Moonlight Bamboo (MB for short)
So from the last post, the "Elsewhere," well I've decided that it comes before you meet the bamboo cutters.
Setting: unknown, but for my sake, the moon. Everything is in shadows. No clear view of people's faces. Never a full body shot
Open panel: A building of unknown origins
Judge: In accordance to the law, you have been found guilty. Are you prepared to pay the price for the crime you have committed?
Girl (Kaguya): ...Yes.
Judge: *to guards or other people* Prepare the container!
*scenes of flashy lights and transformations. Then container is shot into space*
*off in the shadows of the hall*
Woman: Was it the right thing to do? To send here there?
Man: The other punishments would be too severe. With this punishment we will be able to make an appeal later. Though, it may take some time to do.
Woman: I hope you're right.
and now it's time for Elsewhere!

The start of Kaguya Hime
In hopes to finally start my short story, I thought maybe here I will jot down some notes for it. At least the writing part of it.
Chapter 1:
In the early morning, sun had just begone to rise; mist surrounds this town surrounded by the bamboo. No one is stirring, except for one household. The door opens to this shop, with a sign that says, (insert name), and a man steps out out with a basket and axe on hand. He walks down a very short distance when he hears his name being called. He turns around and there is a woman standing outside the bamboo shop. He goes back to the woman and asks what's wrong? The woman seems worried and doesn't speak for a moment.
W: Dear, I'm....I'm sorry.
M: There's nothing to be sorry about.
W: But what happens if we never conceive. The doctor said-
M: The doctor is wrong. We will find a way. If there is a will, there is away. Now, you need rest. Go back inside and I'll return later this afternoon. (says with a kind smile on his face)
The bamboo cutter walks about the steep road onto various paths. The walk ways are surrounded by the bamboo. Finally, he goes off the beaten path in the forest of bamboo, finds a spots and begins cutting the bamboo.
Elsewhere.....
And that's it for now. Now it's time for wine tasting!

DBZ may have taken ahold
So in the process of working on the first you see, I get distracted and start doodling the ones below. This is like 1am, too. Perfect time for drawing. :D
So, I've watching DBZ again, and loving it. Vegeta has moved up in my totem pole of favorite characters. Can't help it. He has sexy voice in the Japanese version. Not constipated sounding. XD But OMG, I had Vegeta's hair. It's nice looking in the show, but it's a bitch to draw. Working on it, I swear!
As for the first image, welcome to give me suggestions, other than some of the obvious fixers. I have plans for the background in mind, so it won't be all one color. It'll be nice, hopefully.

Fakir and Mytho sneak peak
Sneak peak at my newest picture. This will be my first completed picture since had surgery a month ago. For once it's not a commission. I'm still waiting to recieve the last batch, so now I get draw what I want. >:D Gah! I like everything about this so far except two of the hand, but I won't fix it. I'm done with those hands.I've been watching Princess Tutu and I've felt very compelled to draw fanart of this show since it got good. Now was not a fan of Fakir (left) when the I first started watching the show. In fact, I thought he was an asshole. The very end of the first half and beginning of the second half I find myself feeling liking Fakir and disliking Mytho (right). This picture is pertaining to the first half of the show. Roles are quite reversed in the second half. Reason for this picture:
- Fakir and Mytho are roommates
- Fakir tells Mytho what to do the entire time
- In his room Mytho is often seen without any pants
- What is one suppose to think when you see Fakir and a pant less Mytho?

Post-Surgery Sketches
Well I wanted to post so post-surgery sketches after I was was itchy to draw. Yeah I know they aren't that good, but what do you expect? *sigh* I should really learn to do other poses. Found a site that is nothing but poses. I intend use it when I really get drawing again. I should be drawing soon. I'm starting to get bored with just watching anime and Gargoyles all day.

Brand New Day, Brand New Blog
Hey everyone!
So I'm gonna try something new and start a blog! Here my goal is to post reviews on finished anime, movies, and a few books. Not they'll be any good, but I'm gonna give it a shot.
I'll also be posting sketches and art I've done, but mostly sketches. You can catch my finished products at my deviant art account.
