Twist Ending

DO YOU WANT ME TO TRASH YOUR BANK ACCOUNT?

I have an obscene amount of homolust for Batman.  This is especially true when it comes to Christopher Nolan’s take on the franchise, with both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight ranking as two of my favorite films ever (no short order, let me assure you).  When it comes to the toys though, a lot of the figures have been lacking.  Even the Movie Masters figures that came out for The Dark Knight, praised as they were for what they were offering in the 6″ scale, didn’t do much for me and so I held off on buying them.  In fact, the last Batman action figure I bought was from when Tim Burton’s film came out in 1989.  Well, technically it was my mom who bought it for me, and she bought it around March of 1990, but we’re just splitting hairs now!

So, it’s been nearly 20 years since I’ve owned a Batman figure.  Recently, I was made aware of this:

ENDLESS EIGHT BETTER BE EIGHT EPISODES

Just wouldn’t feel like a proper troll otherwise.

Also, I honestly cannot wait for the DVD sales figures for this season.

Waaaaaay behind on my anime viewing…

…and will continue to be for the rest of the month.  I’m busy working on stuff which hampers most of my free time.  Once I get through that, I can go back to reviews, where I will make obscure references to shows that ten people might have watched.   I will fit a Sledge Hammer! reference somehow into a post one day, I swear!

Quick updates:

I find Toradora! enjoyable and a bit of a guilty pleasure – it’s the only show I’ve kept up to date with this season.  Rie Kugimiya will never be out of a job, since she’ll forever voice the short, flat-chested, tsundere cuntrag character.  And Alphonse Elric, who is just a cuntrag.

Just ordered The Dark Knight and Battlestar Galactica Season 4.0 for a grand total of $22.25 after shipping.  Awesome!  One less reason to be angry at the world!  Only 932057392057329473209423 more reasons to go!

Got my Tsukasa Hiiragi and Tsuruya figmas – have yet to open them.  Not in the biblical sense, but the packaging rather.  Shrink wrap is still on them.  No, that’s not a double entendre…look, let’s just move on, okay?

Valkyria Chronicles is being turned into an anime.  Great RPG that I hope translates into a great show.  Pick up a copy of the game and blow off the layer of dust that’s collected on your PS3 if you haven’t turned it into a grill yet.

I’ll be opening up a new section of the site by the end of the year.  Yeah, no joke for this one.  Not that it needs one, since the site as a whole is a joke.

Attempting to catch up on:

• Tytania
• Tales of the Abyss
• Casshern SINS
• Shikabane Hime Aka
• Gundam 00 Season 2
• Michiko to Hatchin
• Detroit Metal City
• Clannad After Story
• Soul Eater
• Nodame Cantabile: Paris Chapter

“Konata Izumi Cosplay Version” Figma

The first of many toy reviews centered on the Figma line, the brainchild of Max Factory and Good Smile, will focus on a convention exclusive: Konata Izumi of Lucky☆Star in her cosplay outfit, based on a scene from episode 16 referencing The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.
