Finally after so many months, I finally purchased my copy of Kingdom Hearts II yesterday! I started to play it last night, and it is such an awesome game. I know most people may have completed by now.....

Anyway, besides this, I'll probably be leaving DeviantART soon. It's one of my fav sites, but I don't really have all that time for an account. I'm gonna give it some thought before I leave...

So for now, ciao.

It's September, and I'm back at school finally. First day was alright. I've got most of the teachers I had last year, and a new art teacher who I found out is a fan of Manga! As for everything else, it's all good really. I heard from my English Teacher I've got Mock Exams in December, so I'll be hitting the books soon and studying.

Biggest shock, the PS3 has been delayed in Europe until next year! I think it's going to be worth the wait, but I am disappointed. I was looking forward to Sonic The Hedgehog on PS3, which does look so awesome. I'll be saving up the money until then...But I maybe end up buying a 360 or the Wii...

Now, I'm on a downloading spree! I'm downloading the following Anime:

*The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
*School Rumble (1st Season)
*Girls Bravo
*Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha
*Cowboy Bebop 1-13

I chose School Rumble because I heard it was entertaining. And besides, I wanted a change in series. I'll still be downloading Bleach and Naruto.

Bleach just keeps getting better and better! These Fillers are well deserved. Awesome Character designs, great quality animation, and a great soundtrack! I've been reading the Manga of Bleach, and Volumes 21-23 are pretty sweet.

As for Video games, I'm waiting to see Vice City Stories on PSP, and also Need For Speed Carbon. I know NFS is gonna be good, as well as VCS. And also Sonic on PS3 when I get one..

As for my art, I've been meaning to get to doing some, but I procrastinate...same for my FanFiction..

In the meantime, take a look at my Anime Music Videos!

Well I'm pretty excited today! I got a new computer last week, and today, I managed to get Naruto Unleashed on DVD! It's practically the same Uncut Version as in the US Release, only a different packaging! I'm glad that's it's finally been released. This release has the following:

*3 Discs of Japanese and English Version w/Subtitles
*Booklet with Anime-Manga Transition
*Leaflet for Naruto: Ultimate Ninja (It's being released in November! Yippe!)
*Textless Opening/Closing

So yeah, it's pretty much the same as the US release, but even so, it's so cool! Volume 2 is out 6th November!

I'll update my journal later

Just letting you know, I'm getting a new computer this coming week. I've had my current one for 4 years now, and it's starting to pack up. Half my programs aren't even working anymore, and it's crashed a total of 4 times. I'm getting a bigger hardrive also, so I can download more anime and music.

--General Stuff--

Well, I'm back from holiday! Here's how it went out: I went to Caister, Norfolk for the first 5 days. The weather there was quite average, and I got myself a copy of Cowboy Bebop Manga Volume 1 and 2 and .hack volume 1. The place where I stayed at had some of the best food around, and the arcade there is wicked. I was playing House Of The Dead 4 quite a bit there.

Next I went to Blackpool, which is up north. It's quite a big place, and I stayed at the Norbreck Castle Hotel. It's quite fancy, and the rooms and suites they offer there are quite amazing! The Weather in Blackpool was bad. It was sunny one day, and it rained on and off the next 2 days, which was disappointing.

I went to one of the game shops there, and I managed to see some very old Playstation Games. Stuff like Final Fantasy VI-IX all at like £10-15 each, which was surprising. I managed to grab a copy of the original 'Metal Gear Solid'. Quite a classic game infact, too bad I don't have a Gamecube, cuz theres the remake of Twin Snakes....

I've decided on buying a Playstation 3 on November 17th. My dad has a nice HDTV, so it's gonna be linked up to there. One of the main games I gonna get is Sonic The Hedgehog. The graphics on that are sweet. Also, Need For Speed Carbon. And yes, I do have £425 saved up for the console, the games are gonna be around £45-£50 each...

--Art Stuff & Status--

I've recently submitted a few photos from my holiday, so check out my gallery.

My Photoshop continues to NOT work for me, so it is still out of action. I might have to switch to Paint Shop Pro, or Coral Painter or Open Canvas. Which do you think is best?

I'm deciding on some Fanart also, projects involved are:

Hidan (Naruto)
Tapion (Dragonball Z)
Zoro (One Piece)
Grimm Jaw (Bleach)
Il Forte Grantz (Bleach)
Shawlong Qufong (Bleach)
Deidara (Naruto)
Tobi (Naruto)

That's what I've got listed for now.

--Anime and Manga--

Well, the Bleach fillers are getting better and better, not what I can say for the Naruto fillers, when the hell is Kakashi Gaiden gonna start for goodness sake? It had better be Episode 200, which is quite a milestone.

I've been reading the Manga version of Cowboy Bebop. If you liked the series and the movie, you'll enjoy this also. Also been reading .hack, which is so funny!!

That's all for now
