Catholic Manga

Is it just me or is the UK Catholic Church now going to the manga scene? Yeah, don't stare at me like that, as a manga, anime, video game and TV fan for around 6 years or so ago, as well as being a Catholic for all my life; I'm pretty surprised that even manga has spread the Catholic Church too.

Hmm, if I see a Catholic Manga coming out in print sometime on the shelf, I might take a flick arond the pages and see it they can keep up with actual Japanese mangas. The Alex Rider manga was good enough, because it actually has Japanese artists; so I'm intrigued to see on how the UK Catholic Church take on this format. (Haha, to Pope Benedict XVI and the folks over at the Vatican. Why haven't you come up with a plan like the UK one?)

Oh, if you don't believe me, here's the source.

I Knew It...

I knew there would be a Den-O Yaoi trend increase somewhere, like this.

In other news, watched Den-O 13 and oh yeah, gotta love Ryuutaros and Gun Form! Heehee, I love how Takeru-san used his years of breakdance training into the screen and that he ACTUALLY does it, instead of a stunt double. Plus:

• I love the fact that despite the fact Ryuutaros has a childish behaviour, he has a very carefree personality and is different from the trio (Momotaros, Urataros and Kintaros).
• He's an animal lover! So he does have a good heart, after all. And he gets pissed off if someone, whether it's human or Imagin, harms an animal. Like when he 'breakdance-pwned' the young folk for scaring the cats away via loud music or he henshins into Gun Form and attack the Owl Imagin (which I dubbed Yaibataros, due to the fact that the seiryuu who provided the Owl Imagin's voice did a lot voice acting in Boukenger as Yami no Yaiba) for breaking a birdhouse.
• Gun Form = Successor to RyuGunOu. His shooting skills is bit off the aim, but at least he's more active than Drake. Plus, he even breakdances after his henshin! ^_^
• And despite the rumours that Ryuutaros is the only Imagin that was not controllable by Ryotaro, our main man managed to get him out of his body (yeah, it's weird writing this entry) in the end, which I was glad that the Dragon Imagin isn't the strongest and difficult (well, at least a bit) to control.
• Ryuutaros' voice is sexy. Rawr. Thank you Kenichi 'Zack from Final Fantasy VII' Suzumura for providing his childish, yet really sexy (though not as sexy as Urataros) and mild-mannered voice.

Airi and Watch Guy seemed to have some sort of relationship in the past and Ryotaro smiled at them, so now I want to know more, but maybe later. I don't want to get disappointed if Watch Guy gets revealed really too soon. Bleh, need to sleep soon.

Okami = Addictive

Damn you Capcom (in a good way)! Thanks to you and ex-Clover Studios staff members, I'm now addicted to Okami! So addictive, I'm playing the game, again.

I never knew that playing the game as a wolf goddess has never been so good, since...er I don't know any game that has leading wolves, regardless of their gender.

Quote of the Moment - "Busty Babe!" - Issun from Okami on commenting Rao's er, 'Melons'...
