Anime musing, some zodiac geekery and future projects--

[daeva_neesan]

So, I added two other animes to my watching list, actually LEVEL E and Hourou Musuko.
The first one is kind of slice of life with aliens, making it look like some comedy with some action bits-- Aaah, I wanna go live in another little town too, and meet there a good-looking athletic boy as my neighbour ♥∼! The second pick was suggested by Forchy and it's actually FUCKING CUTE. It's about a boy and a girl in middle school having gender issues and their circle of friends... I hope it won't develop into something morbid and ecchi, but giving the general mood and pastel colors (OMG, those are really annoying to watch on streaming =_= *can't see anything*) I think that I shouls be safe--

Watching Starry Sky kinda refreshed my passion for zodiac stuff-- I decided to do a bit of research and I found a (apparently dead) website that described personalities based on both Chinese and Zodiac signs.
Your Dae (Rooster/Aries) is described like this:
"Blunt, yet witty, these Roosters speak in plain terms. They do not hold qualms about their feelings and don’t mind sharing their points of view. They are honest and trustworthy and expect the same of others, especially friends and family."
Well, it's kinda accurate D:

According to this thing Roosters are most compatible with Oxes-- I looked at Ox's years and looks like my best partner is a brat. --Or someone born in 1973. Kinda old D: but still in my range of action :D --Yeah, yeah, a Water Ox sounds like someone that I may like∼

Turning the page of my potential non-existant partners, as I probably told you here and there, I'm planning to attend YaoiCon this year, hopefully with a stand :3
So, I was thinking to bring, besides the obvious doujinshi, also some original project of sort.
I already planned some cute, 16 pages long artbook featuring the characters in Kalyana's universe, but I also wanted to bring some original manga of sort.
I saw that many authors release their webcomics for that, but I'd like to come with something new-- I have various ideas but I'd also like to hear your opinion about it.
What should I do? A sequel/spin-off of any of my webcomics (I already planned one about Sakurazo, focusing on Mitsubachi and Kaede's son), a book with various one-shots or a long story..? Slice of life, adventure, fantasy-- Something mainstream or something more peculiar and original..? Set in modern times, or during some historical period that you fancy, in Europe or in Japan..?
Let me hear your opinions, I could gladly use some feedback to make up my mind ^__^

Please watch Level E asap! It's by my childhood fav. Togashi Sensei who i'm loyally awaiting his resumption of Hunter X hunter. *cries* I love Hisoka and his pedophilic ways.

Have you watched detroit metal city? Lol its so wrong in all the right ways...very rude and very random. *high fives* For watching Jellyfish Princess :D.

I played Starry Sky, so the anime the way it presented it was odd to me. I didn't like it being broken up into the seasons XD I was hoping all 12 boys would be there to interact.

I hope you manage to find someone to share a stall with at Yaoi Con!~ Else it would be crappy to cover the costs for that table all by yourself.

Perhaps you should try an original one shot set in modern times? Or else go for something that you've never explored... As long as you have fun doing it instead of stressing out about accuracies~

Speaking of zodiac, have you heard of about how our zodiacs might be wrong?: http://uk.lifestyle.yahoo.com/home/why-your-Zodiac-sign-might-be-wrong-blog-13-vanessa-green.html
Not so keen on this. ^^;

Well, it's kinda accurate D:
It always is, seeing how horoscopes have to be vague and general enough to fit anyone reading them, at least partially. As a matter of fact, the bit you quoted fits be pretty well, even though I'm neither a Rooster, nor an Aries.

Also, while I don't really "buy" astrology, it's fun when descriptions of my sign are accurate. When I was young, I used to think I was more like a Scorpio than a Sagittarius/Ophiuchus, and that the Tiger descriptions were off as well, but as I grow up I find that they are really just like me. This website you linked is interesting; Tiger nails me right on the head. Even Fire Tiger.

It even says I would be a great: Actor, Comedian, Chauffeur, Musician, Race Car Driver (!), Pilot, Artist, Writer. I AM/ENJOY ALL OF THESE THINGS (with the exception of pilot, but I would still fucking love that; I've just no experience in flying).

The Sagittarian Tiger doesn't really fit me; I'm not quite that mindlessly impulsive. But there is no descriptor for the Ophiuchan Tiger, which is what I really am, so whatever XD

If Dae is going to Yaoi-con this year, I must be there and then I can drag you to Japantown and we can eat yummy things :D *starts saving pennies*

I'm going to check out Level E, seems interesting. Not sure about Starry Sky thought, sure lots of bishes, but I'm afraid there would be too much romance crap and I'm wary of male-harems where every chara is in love with the main heroine (who is usually a complete idiot) >_>
