Anime thoughts:
Black Lagoon - One of the anime I said I was going to be looking at, and so far it's been awesome. It gives off the same feelings I got from watching Cowboy Bebop. It's going to be a fun ride watching this one.
Ah! My Goddess 2nd Season - Peorth in the opening! Yahoo!!! I'm also very addicted to the opening. I know a ton of people hate the mixing of bagpipes and J-Pop, but I think it really goes great together.
Air Gear - The first episode was the most disappointing thing I've ever watched. I don't know why they decided to introduce Spit Fire and Agito so early, and changing up the entire starting story was stupid. The fan service portion is great though. Even going beyond what I've been expecting. There's a bit of hope glimmering through episodes 3-4. Hopefully, things might slow down a bit and get on track.
Naruto dub: Sakura Blossoms - Holy crap. The dub quality was on par with the original. I was just as moved as I was when I first watched it, and being a huge fan of this unpopular character, I'm awestruck that the scene was left intact. There were only minor blood edits, but the most important blood drop is still showed when Sakura fakes a jutsu and keeps coming at him from the top. I was also surprised they allowed the scenes of him punching at Sakura to be left in.
Manga thoughts:
Naruto - Damn Naruto for his "Naruto-fying" abilities. I wanted to see Sai bite the dust. -_-'
One Piece - Chopper's over-the-limit Rumble transformation was wicked. Lucchi and Luffy finally start duking it out. I really hope the fight gets totally finished this time, but I'm pretty sure the Marine HQ is going to somehow interfere and they'll have to have their rematch later.
Death Note - I'm sad that Light couldn't persevere any further than that. It would have been nice to see the villain succeed in the end for a change. It's been fun reading Death Note. Last chapter should be interesting for Misa's reactions.
Comic thoughts:
Infinite Crisis 6-7 - Issue 6 was great. I'm a fan of Superboy, so it's a little sad that he had to die. Last issue was okay. The bit with Joker was great, but everything else was meh.
Teen Titans 34-35 - It was my favorite running series before One Year Later, and OYL, it still is. Ravager is so damn slutty, she's cute. >_> I just hope Speedy comes back, she's the only one I miss from those who left.
Civil War 1 - First shots are fired and out of the smoke, I've become a fan of Captain America. I've never really enjoyed Captain America at all from the beginning of whenever it was when I first read about him. Now that I've read this, Cap has finally won me over. It's funny since, I was (somewhat) a fan of Iron Man and now I dislike him for his position on hero registration thing. I just can't see how Spider-Man is going to support Iron Man's side. I look forward to what Spider-Man is going to do in the coming war.
