I don’t think I’ve followed through with any of my plans. Though that was kind of expected. I lack the motivation. My otaku self is dying and I find myself wanting to do more real life stuff. I don’t dedicate enough time to watch anime and read manga.
Though with the amount of crap this and the coming season… it’s as if anime is dying. Quantity rather than quality. I took a look at what is coming out this fall and I can’t say that I’m eager to watch anything. The summer list has been pretty much fail. Producers has been pissing off Haruhi fans and I was actually looking forward to watching season two but the joke that is Endless Eight or whatever it is called and the new filler crap has made me kind of dread it. I like Haruhi but wow.. way to shit on the fans. FMA was also a joke. I think back to the first series and how it was decent. I had the first episode all ready to watch but I decided that I would rather waste my time doing nothing. I lacked the forward motivation to watch a rehashed series.
I was a little more busy (socially) during August.. Gaming nights with friends, BBQs, and drinking. I failed hard during the local tournament. I couldn’t clutch it out in BlazBlue, so I placed poorly. Lost to people I know I can beat. I don’t think I will be a tournament player but a more casual one. I can’t dedicate myself to practice it online due to poor latency. Moves don’t come out and it’s harder to punish high recovery moves. bawwww. I think I will learn SF4 a bit more. Not going to get up into the higher level of play like everyone else in the scene but I want to play against them so I will fuck around with El Fuerte and play a bit of C.Viper when I feel a bit more serious.
