It's 1:03AM, July 5. I just finished watching Mushishi 蟲師. Watching it is a journey- it's sophisticated, mind-boggling, and warm to the heart. I usually don't talk about what I watch that much, but this show is really something special you really can't get often.
To summarize it, Ginko travels as a Mushi-shi, studying life forms only seen by a small amount of people. He interacts with these curious creatures, both the good and the bad, and helps people deal with their mushi-related problems. He constantly is on the move, having a new adventure each episode with different mushi. The flow of each episode is gentle, slow, however, sometimes, the story might become turbulent.
Mushishi is best seen at peace, and I recommend it to be seen alone. Those conditions let you feel the ambiance of each story. The people are plain and ordinary, yet the situations are thought-provokers. Some leave you with tears, some leave you feeling all fuzzy, and some just leave you hanging. And the series can be watched on and off, as none of the stories intertwine. Where one has an island who gives people rebirths, another has a girl who turns everything into rust as she speaks. Even the final episode has the same atmosphere as the first.
Hey, I like a action-y shounen as much as the next guy, but seriously, it's hard to get bored once you're watching Mushishi. If you've seen Natsume Yuujinchou, the feeling is somewhat similar in that they both see "paranormal" creatures and interact with them, but Mushishi is a lot more adult and not all tales end as happily. It's humor is lightly brushed on, but enjoyable. Well, that's all I have to say, but Mushishi should be a great anime to add to your list. Well, if you have the patience to cool down, and cozy up.
The thing I hate about summer is the incredibly hair-burning weather. But thank Buddha, Lei Gong, Fui Xi, Wukong, Guan Yu, and whoever else up there that the sun is always behind clouds. My days are filled with thunderstorms <3
There's not much going on this summer, mostly because I'm unproductive, and it doesn't help that college is free (aka. Lena, don't worry about getting a job), ...but I'm getting more satisfied with my sketches and giving up less easily. And I'm just waiting for things to happen. I have a list of WIP I have to finish- ► Reiraku//Third Year ► Kagura//Above the Umbra ► Soi Fong, Yoruichi, Rukia & Orihime//Bleach Femme Part2 - XX ► And the past 5 things in my sketchbook
I'm finishing Mushishi [link] after postponing it for a long while. FUCK I spend late nights bawling. (Not really- but every episode leaves you feeling emotional.)

Darker than Black Season 2. Chinese Electrician yes/yes?
I guess the past few journals have just been me, gushing random garbage out of my mouth. Well, I just needed a place to rant, and seeing how I can't even keep a proper weblog, I guess this is the only place for me to just write. Senior year has robbed me of the ability to let my thoughts flow, because of desktop and all.
01. I'm no my ninth sketchbook since 2000, and actually my first book covered a range of 4 years. Looking back, I began by drawing off of childrens' clothing tags, stationary, game boxes, and books. And then, I just drew anything that came to mind - cyber women, killer dancers and lame people that resemble YGO characters. Now, I just glad, that I found a distinct way of drawing because I remember saving pictures of other artist's illustrations and trying to bend their direction.
02. Maybe it's because I've been listening to YamaixUsa lately, (nicodouga duo) but you know, to all the women out there, there are times when you picture yourself as the opposite gender. Well, my friends already see me as a manly type, and my brother said to his friend, "She's me, only a girl." To put it simply, if I could be a boy, I would want to be like 5 feet 10, dress semi-casual and have a adoration for wearing ties. I would seriously try to learn how to dance. Well, it's not like I know how to right now, (lol) but somehow dancing men are appealing, right? And my ideal girl would a "pleasant" type. The type of girl that makes you go, oh she's sweet, easy to get along with. A Nia type...? Well, she could be moe-gar. (Hey thar Helen, you're still mah waifu.)
I LIKE TO THINK I'M SEME.
Don't take me seriously. (Well the last part anyways) I just wanted to type something...bye.
