[Glory Box]

( COS-TARDS UNDER THE CUT-- )

Ah, the lulz.
XD

First, I finally finished the William/Grell picture:
As usual, you can find the whole thing on DevART :3

This said, I have some stuff to discuss with you!
( GLEE 2x19 )
( KURAGEHIME #34 )

( Then, a question about some dilemma of mine over this doujinshi, my f-list-- )
--I WANT EPISODE 20 ALREADY, DAMMIT >_< !!

Ok, now to bed. Apparently I'll sleep around 4 hours today, LOL :D

Also, my sales post. Here.

So, today I have an afternoon shift (1800-2200--As if I'll ever get off at 2200 >_>;) and I'm a bit wary, 'cause in these days is pretty sunny, but it's also COLD LIKE HELL ;_; I mean, I'm in my room and it's past noon, and it's still SO COLD, like a December early morning!. And it's sunny outside, it looks like late spring. It feels unreal, LOL ;_;

Anyway, I told you that I'm still agonizing over some art slump, but it doesn't mean that I'm uninspired ;_; So in these days I scribbled some stuff that I can't draw XD herongale graciously betaed them, so I can show you without any regrets XD

Ah, and since the fandoms are pretty tiny and mostly unknown, I added infos and visual refs for the characters in the links, so you can get an idea of their personalities and looks while reading :3

Your “Sorrys” Sound Like the Fakest Words
Ookiku Furikabutte - Akimaru/Haruna (G)
( 'Aaaah, that was good!' Haruna stretched his arms joyfully over his head while walking behind Akimaru. )

The Requirements for a Cute Girl
Kuragehime - Kuranosuke/Shuu (R)
( 'You don’t look like a man at all,' Shuu stated plainly, somewhat confused by the pale color of his little brother’s body. )

Sticky and Smelly
Hourou Musuko - Doi→Nitori (PG)
For those who read the manga, this refers to the events in chapter 90, "Stylish Connections", where Doi is forced to crossdress by Nitori.
( '...I mean, wearing female underwear is 100% gay!' Doi stated, his lips glittering glossy. )

Still Life
Star Driver - Reiji/Sugata (PG)
( Just as he was getting out of the Art Club room, Sugata bumped into someone’s chest. )

And that's all for now! Now I really need to wash my hair and to think of a strategy to fight the cold tonight at work, sorry D:

So, today I managed to finish some animes on my to-watch list :3
Here are my EXTREMELY BIASED reviews, with art commentaries included!
Also, spoilers EVERYWHERE. Don't expect me to cut them graciously 'cause I wanna rant XD

KURAGEHIME
Kyaaaah, I loved this so very VERY MUCH ;_; !!!
The story, setting and characters were so very original and fun to see interact XD I must confess you that sometimes I felt kinda frustrated, expecially during the Shu/Whore parts (that horrible slut!), but all in all is was way too enjoyable despite being a shojo-based series *_*
The anime performs an open end (looks like the producers want us to buy the manga-- LOL, don't worry guys, I will, as the Italian serialization will catch up with the anime *_*)... Then, what else.
Oh, Kura/Tsukimi kinda annos me XD I meabn, I still find it enjoyable, 'cause they are both cute in their own ways, b-but I find it so OBVIOUS. I mean, it's the male lead and the female lead characters--! LET'S PAIR THEM UP! This is something that I never got to stand, that whole "a fated meeting" shit that always happens. I just can't stand it Dx
Also, let me express another time my utter disgust for Shu/Whore. Stupid whores should just suffer for ever with no chance of salvation and hopefully die alone in a ditch, not get the pretty megane boys for themselves :/
Thank god both pairings don't happen in Kuragehime, so I can give this series a full 8 with no half-hearted feelings, ohohoh ♥

BACCANO!
Suggested by Forchy I finally managed to watch this whole, series and specials included :3
I must say that the story, characters and set is DEFINITELY better than Durarara!'s... I can't understand why this anime didn't get as popular as Durarara! in Japanland :/
I was extremely glad with the plot!! The whole Firo's "upgrade" was just an awesome way to fix things up within the Immortals circle-- Also Czes-kun is THE CUTEST THING EVER ;__; Awwww, when he met with Maiza ♥ and his role as Ennis' little brother ♥hearts;!!! AND OMG, when Miria and Isaac (I'll be boring and say that THESE TWO ARE OVER THE CONCEPT OF AWESOME, OMG GAWD ;___; !!!) saved him T____T I confess you that I cried a bit!!!! (a lot, actually XD)
My favourite character is obviously Ladd XD But I also like Maiza and, well, Luck ♥♥ As for the girls, my favourite is probably Nice :3 I like her past, how she reacted to it, and she and Jacuzzi are so cute together ;3; ...
...Sure, let's rant about random heterosexuality. Looks like this guy has this terrible habit of PAIRING EVERYONE TOGETHER, as if nobody can't be left happily by themselves :/ At least, contrary to Durarara!, were abominable heights were reached, Baccano! still keeps it classy and interesting (most of the pairings were enstablished already), the only pointless pairing of the whole series being Claire/Chane. Just-- WHY? It's just too stupid! I hope that Ladd will kill 'em both :/ Also Firo/Ennis was kinda pointless, but at least it's cute to watch XD Also, Lua was a pretty useless character and she's obviously unworthy of Ladd, but that's it :/
I was disturbed by the lack of yaoi for this series.
So here's some Ladd/Claire and Ladd/Graham random sketchin' XD Hopefully I'll turn these into proper artworks someday ^_^;
Ohohoh, isn't Graham perfect as Ladd's cute little kitty x'DDD ?

SHIKI
OH GOD, WHAT I FEARED THE MOST HAPPENED.
Stupid Sunako survived and she also managed to run away with the idiotic uke monk :/ I hope that Toshio manages to find both of them and KILL THEM.
--You can't believe how many "Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!" I chanted during those last scenes XD
All in all it was an interesting series :D I liked how they decided to deal with a vampire story and I was amused by the setting.
Sure, that whole "LOL, the true monsters are the human beings ;o;" shit suggested in the last episodes was totally uncalled for, but it was also interpreted in a charming way *_*
Natsuno WINS over everyone. Too bad that he didn't meet with cute Tohru at all after turning into a jinrou ;___; Also, Ritsu-chan! FUCKING AWESOME! I admired her choice, she's truly amazing ;___;
I was extremely happy to see idiotic Megumi die. Poor Masao was indeed pathetic XD The poor boy! He was destined to a shitty existence x'DDD
Now I'm waiting eagerly for the new manga chapters! I wonder if the manga's story will proceed the same way as the anime, 'cause I feel that here and there the anime was a bit forced :/

SHINREI TANTEI YAKUMO
Ahah, this series was useless.
The only nice thing was Gotou, cute Nao-chan *wants to squeeeze her ;_;*, awesome Isshin and the Gotou/Ishii subtexts at the beginning of the series XD
The female lead was terrible, almost as horrible as Wako from Star Driver. The male protagonist was ok, though. Yakumo is kinda cute, the cat-person XD

Ok, I'm off to eat now :D
Itadakimasu∼

[EDIT]
Also, let me rant a bit about Katekyo Hitman Reborn-- So, lpscanlations made a poll to ask the members which doujinshi they should release first-- The list counted Katekyo, Shiki, Durarara! and Haruhi booklets-- I voted for Shiki as if there was no tomorrow, but stupid Katekyo won D': (Well, this was expected, LOL XD)
LOL, the only fun thing about this series is that a lots of doujinshi now have Italian titles x'D It's amusing to look at∼
