IDie

Watched yesterday's The Gadget Show and I'm really pissed about the Apple's I[Pod (shuffle/nano)/Tunes/Touch/Phone/Whatever] stuff being the greatest gadget in the world. Even the IPhone's been given the Gadget of the Year 2007. Seriously, I think they are IOverrated and I'll tell you why I hate them more than my Creative stuff...

- They're a pain in a butt when it comes to converting .mp3 files into .aac files and I'm not really a fan of those. They take so long to convert, I'm going to have to smash the Ipod plug in half. Plus, I'm not that patient to have to wait for the files converting and then listen to enjoy.
- IPhone's rubbish. I'm sorry, but at £35 on the monthly contract via O2? Yeah, right. That's a total ripoff! I rather go and buy a Sony Ericsson with Pay as You Go Top-up fee than this. And then it has a rubbish 2 Megapixel camera and the music in there is awful.
- So popular, I'm going to have a fit here. I just hate how one minded the Technology magazines say they're really good. Oh, for God's sake, have you ever heard of the proverb 'Don't judge a book by its cover'. Please, let me find at least one person who hates the IPod/whatever.

So, there you have it. The reasons why I want to buy a Creative Zen M, instead of ICrap stuff.

Quote of the Moment - "ARGH! LEAVE ME ALONE!" - Me, when playing Warriors Orochi and lots of CPU characters are following me. Creepy...

^_^ That was Great

Been watching the Den-O Special Talk Show and here's the list of what I found so great about this:

- The opening scene, Takeru-san and Yuichi-san (well, Yuichi mostly) guessing the Taros' voice actors and got the Kintaros and Ryutaros voices wrong with hilarious results.
- Whoa. I found loads of girls, some couple of loli goth ones, going gaa-gaa over the Imagin, voice actors and the two actors. And yes, I went gaa-gaa, whenever I see Takeru-san.
- Suit actors interview! Wow! This is great; very rare to see them their real selves in person and getting interviewed by Suzuken and Yusa 'Ichimaru Gin' Kouji (btw, those two voice actors have their own radio talk shows in Japan, which might explain the interview part). Just love the Sieg suit actor doing 'the Prince' bow and 'Zu gu takai!' pose. XD
- The songs - Well, Yuichi-san was lip-syncing in the Action Zero one, but by God, he did a good one at pretending to sing. And Double Action wasn't bad as well.
- Climax Jump HIP HOP version with Takeru-san breakdancing in front of the audience. Oooh, I just love actors having a secret ability to do something.
- And finally...Sword Form appearing at the end of the show. That one was surprising for me.

And guess what? TV-N's going to sub this show, which means...<3 I am DEFINITELY CAN'T wait to see this, the Hyper Battle and the rest of the upcoming episodes more than Kiba.

Quote of the Moment - "The viewers were mostly 2 - 30 years old female." - Takenoko from the TV-N group commenting about the gender majority of the Special Talk Show audience, which includes me. Too bad I didn't go to Japan and go gaa-gaa over them. T_T

YOSH! Xmas comes early for me!

From the box that contains a lot of Chibi Voice I-doll figures...



To a complete set of the six Den-O characters! Complete get indeed. Okay, so it's technically four, since Momo, Sword Form and MomoRyo are the same person.

Mindless Brain Coming In

Eurgh. It's nearly 2 in the morning and here I am, typing like a mindless zombie, attemping to do some last minute coursework done for the course. Because, let's face it, no matter how much you really want to avoid, if it's BA (HONS) Whatever Degree, YOU'LL HAVE TO DO THE ESSAY, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.

And time for some random bit: You know, when I was watching Kamen Rider Den-O, I always think that the suit actors must have watched a lot of silent movies somewhere and I was pretty amazed that the way they acted reminds me of seeing as a homage to Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton; past time's two great legends of silent films. And I bet, Takaiwa Seiji-san (the suit actor for Momotaros/Kamen Rider Den-O) must have studied Chaplin and Keaton's movements very well. Hence, all that funny and hilarious stuff that I've been watching their show for a while now, including his convincing and brilliant performance in his Climax Form stuff (must have been really hard to play all four characters in one body); I've got to give him some great respect for all his hard work. God, now I want to watch Chaplin's 'The Great Dictator' sometime, even though it's not technically silent.

BEST One Hit-Wonder Music Video Promo. EVER!

Or not, depending on your view if you haven't seen Kamen Rider Den-O. This is going to be in the top five Christmas Chart hits, isn't it?



Come to think of it, the Taros Imagin singing in front of their microphones really reminds me of seeing the British pop quartet, Take That in their 'Rule the World' PV for some odd reason. I bet the suit actors were having a really fun time pretending to sing in front of a virtual audience. XD

Quote of the Moment - "Ii jan! Ii jan! Sugee jan!?" - Climax Jump (either the Den-O Form or the Denliner Form is fine)
