Thank you, it might not be the answer i wanted but it's the truth.Again, thanks.

Quote by shoujoboyIt's pretty pointless for me to go off and say what I thoght of your review, I'd end up redundant, so instead I will comment on Silent Mobius itself. I actually saw a few episodes of this show when Tech TV showed it on late night Anime Unleashed. Just the little bit that I saw had me addicted. Then I bought the DVD's and was still loving every minute of it. But the way the series concluded, not just the ending but the latter half of the series, dissapointed the hell out of me. It was so unfulfilling. I personally wouldn't have given the plot an 8 since the way a show ends is a huge deciding factor in my overall scores. But that's because I'm a harda$$.

Thanks again Sho. You may heap praise on my reviews - and continue to flatter my ego (you can probably hear the "whoosh, whoosh" of my head inflating here)
Anyways, if you liked the anime version this is one I'd strongly recommend you invest in the manga if you haven't already done so, despite any prejudices you may hold to reading manga. The manga at least concludes the story with a really decent fight that'll leave the anime reeling if it was produced.

Wow, call this message unexpected. Just so you know, flattery will get you EVERYWHERE! Your name isn't one I've forgotten per se, just haven't seen much of. There are only a few names I see around this site that actually ring a bell and yours is one of them. I really appreciate your support and I had no idea there was someone out there that truly enjoyed my ramblings.

I hear you about the college thing. I got out of the military in December and am looking at going back to finish my last two years of college here in August. I know, I'm 24 and working on a degree... I'm behind. Cut me some slack. Hopefully I'll still be able to dedicate myself to the things I love, but we'll see how good I am at balancing.

As for reviews, I'm always looking for that next thing. I'm finishing up a review on Sola and I've just gotten underway on Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru. It never stops with me...

As for adding me as a friend, I certainly don't mind. Hopefully you won't mind if I reciprocate that sentiment. Well, see you around.

Now that was unexpected. I'm glad my name is forever engraved into your mind. Long but weird nickname serves its purpose successfully.

No, seriously, your reviews are good. I'm not flattering you or something, lol, joking. I mean, seriously, people enjoy more thoughts-input reviews rather than just nod-nod nice reviews. Ramblings are good thing.

Owh? You were in the military during your degree? What degree course are you taking actually? I think I remembered you mentioning law somewhere... correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for the watch. I saw your latest review on Sola. Havent gotten a proper personal-moment with the computer yet so since I am now, I'll be reading your review.

Hopefully you'll do well in your studies!

All the best.

She said we're bickering...

Quote by shoujoboyBut you wouldn't want to do that because I bring fun wherever I go. I could just up and leave the site and then what? THEN WHAT I ASK! If your answer is anything other than "we would all weep for the tremendous loss", then I am going to assume you are lying. Otherwise my ego may be shattered beyond repair.

You're infiltrating my guestbook now? oooh, what shall I do with you *holds lightning bolt in hand*

Oh fine, the site won't be the same without you and jak bickering and you enlightening the newbies.

Hi there, shoujoboy! It's me, in case you've forgotten my existence.

Anyway, I was just browsing about MT after being away for so long (and also being abducted by college) and yeah, your name flashed through my mind. (most probably because of your reviews that I love to read )

Putting that aside, how are you doing? Any interesting anime that you're going to review? I hope there is!

Argh, before I forgot. *press 'stalk' button* I hope you don't mind. I'm really looking forward to your reviews!

shoujoboy
thanks for commenting on my thread =D
i think it might be good for you to have your wisdoms pulled... it might cause problems in the future... but if it doesn't bother you now, you don't have to =) haha wow you're good with pain~ why did you have a root canal? oh... firefly is totally true.... but dont feel forced to do it~ x_X
m.i.a. ^^

Quote by shoujoboyI hear ya, but all I ever seem to get is different dentists saying different things. Some say keep them, others say no. I also have two vampire like teeth pretty high up in my gums and I get the same back and forth. I'm bout tempted just to bash my face into a wall, knock them all out and start from scratch with Vaniers or dentures. Can't win for losing I swear. Thanks for the advice though... more ammo for the next time I go to the dentist.

Isn't that always how it works? We really just can't win. Though I'd refrain from the face bashing... don't want to mess up those (assumed) good looks! j/k j/k! Well, good luck with your next visit!

Quote by Shoujoboy I could tell that you had a thing for survival horror when seeing the Fatal Frame homepage, but what about scary games in general? Just bringing that up because if you like the whole scary aspect, a good bet would be Condemned 1 & 2, assuming you haven't played them already or if you even enjoy FPS.

And even though my forte is RPG's, I do enjoy survival horror, so I'd be curious to know what you find to be some of the best out there. A genre I enjoy... just not too familiar with it all. Thanks for humoring me.

I would love to play Condemned... I got to see a little bit of it when my brother was playing, and it looked like fun. I'm saving up for an Xbox360, but it will be a while before I can get one I like to try different games, so I'm generally up for most games if they sound interesting enough. My cousin actually introduced me to rpgs with Final Fantasy VII and Suikoden II, and then my brother got me to play Silent Hill...

I don't really know where to begin with survival horror, especially since I don't know what all you've played. There's alot of it that I myself haven't even been able to play yet. I'm the most familiar with the Silent Hill & Fatal Frame series, and they tend to be my favorites out of what I have played. They're pretty artistic and place a lot of emphasis on exploration and detail, as well as storyline.

Well, I could go on for a while about each game so let me put it this way, these are what I own (all PS2 games):
Silent Hill 1-4, Silent Hill Origins; Fatal Frame 1-3; Clock Tower 3; Haunting Ground; Kuon; Rule of Rose; Parasite Eve 1 & 2; and then the two I haven't finished are Siren & Obscure. I've also played some of Resident Evil... and this is really just a drop in the bucket for what is out there.

They're all relatively different styles of games, so a lot of it just depends on what aspects of a game you put the most emphasis on to be enjoyable. The two I've played that I won't recommend would be these two:

Rule of Rose - It's combat system is pretty bad, and it's a long, repetitive game that has only 2 levels that are mildly creepy at best. The characters are interesting and it has a nice variety of weapons, but with the combat so severely lacking and the drudging storyling these two highlights weren't really worth it.

Clock Tower 3 - It's interesting enough as far as the story goes, but the basic set-up of the game is compared to what I call the "spring-loaded-cat-syndome". The "spring loaded cat" refers to in a scary movie when a cat or other object suddenly jumps out and startles you. Clock Tower 3 revolves around this set-up, but it's spring-loaded-cat is broken and keeps jumping out. So in the end it becomes more cumbersome than scary, and it prevents you from taking time to really investigate and observe everything around you.

I'm sorry if this isn't very helpful. I think I might be able to give you a better recommendation if I knew what you really look for in a scary game. Well, since this post has gone on for awhile I stop for now

Quote by shoujoboyA show you rated as average ended up as the Anime Spotlight on the Maigetsu? Where were you to protest that decision? For shame.

But I watched this after the Anime Spotlight on the Maigetsu was written and published. Actually I more or less decided to watch this after brom wrote that article to see for myself what this series was like (though I guess I've heard about this series for a while and have been wanting to check it out for a while)

Quote: Aside of that, its the type of review I expect from you... although I've somewhat forgot what I expect of you since you NEVER WRITE! Well written and right on my level. Davidh01 just seems to write over my head, Jakulito seems to baffle me, but you and I seem to have the same writing style overall (minus you don't attempt humor like I do... key word attempt). It must be insulting to be compared to me, BUT THAT'S TOO BAD! I did go there.

I have a writing style? O__o Hey don't just yell at me, what about those other people who never write? >__<

Quote: And as for your opening questions "Do you have a grudge against someone? Do you hate them enough to want to send them to Hell?"... let's just say you'd better hope I never pull the red string. Just kidding you know I love you, it's Jak that has to worry.

Nah I'm not worried, not like you know my real name to be able to enter it into that website anyway =P

Quote by shoujoboy
As for the comment about the hardest game ever being Star Ocean 3 in 4-d mode... I'd tend to believe that. I remember playing that in just normal, but I went for all the battle trophies. Just the absurdity of getting some of those showed me that game had some teeth to it. Honestly though, I'd probably say Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne was the hardest game I've played. It was hard as hell on normal, and the 2nd TUTORIAL enemy killed me on hard.

And that ends my return rant.

Aaah... Ranting... It lets off steam. Thanks for the reply! I was scared away from Crisis Core after the movie and Dirge of Cerberus, but I've still had the egging feeling that makes me want to try it out. I don't know if Star Ocean 3 is the hardest game ever, but it's the hardest one I've personally played that isn't a survival horror game. I guess you could probably tell by my pseudo-rant earlier, but I really like difficult games (if they require strategy and not reliant on luck), so I'll look into this Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne... if I can find it It's been a while since I've seen it at the game stores. Anyways, thanks again for the input! Take care!

Sho tryna woo the ladies with his tragic romance epic...

Nice work!
