Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

Which is to say, I'm finally going to talk about something that I've been putting off since I got back from Japan.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] sake_butterfly and [livejournal.com profile] zoechan, I MISS YOU SO BAD I WANT TO EAT AN IPOD.

So without further ado, PLEASE WATCH THIS SHIT.

-"Boondock Saints" - this is a movie. It has Irish brothers with guns. They have tattoos of Latin on their hands. For some reason, this makes me swoon. I suck. [livejournal.com profile] wofl_iron downloaded it the other day, ask her where she got it if you're interested. (Edit: I just got my boss to sell me one of our copies at work and I want to bite on it for a while. Someone please help me. Also, someone please take this LJ search away from me. I'm doing bad things with it.)

But the real story is here.

ー桜欄高校ホスト部 (OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB)

I don't actually know what to say, except that the animation is smooth and clean and beautiful and the story is funny and the characters are brilliant and maybe the best recommendation I can give, IT'S SHOUJO THAT EVEN I, THE ANTI-SHOUJO, WILL GLADLY PARTAKE OF. Because it has a heroine who kicks my ass with not-sucking and her sheer obliviousness and stubbornness, and everyone else is charming, and Hikaru and Kaoru are the new hotness. I have a brothers problem.

The moral of the story is, if [livejournal.com profile] sake_butterfly put it on her iPod and carried it halfway around the world and showed it to me, it has to be good. AND I EVEN LEARNED HOW TO USE BITTORRENT TO APPRECIATE IT. SO PLEASE WATCH THAT SHIT. O.O Here is a link to episodes for your enjoyment! :D いっらしゃいませ!

Or humor me. Or something. I dunno. But there we go, that's it. I'm going to work now.

Since you never showed up in chat for me to squeal at you: eeeeeee I got the tea cup, and it's so, so pretty! Thank you!

And thank you for whatever the hell that little plastic bubble with the pin in is! It feels like kind of an avatar of Japan: small, cute, and incomprehensible.

I will give Ouran a shot if I ever manage to wade through and delete an acceptable portion of all the shit currently filling up my hard drive.

Too bad the writer/director is/was such a fucking asshole. I mean he's unbelievably horrible. Yeesh.

Yea, I heard that's why there's trouble with the sequel. Which sucks cuz the movie is brilliant.

Hey, remember how I was freaking out about the ending theme while in Japan? I has it now. And the opening. Let me know if you wants.

YES! I DOOOO! I downloaded the opening, but I've been wondering where/how to find the ending theme.

You are so good to me. ;_;

... *TACKLES*

Thank you for exposing me to this series! X3 Just finished watching episode eight, and now I am twitching in anticipation for more. I simply adore Hikaru and Kaoru. And Tamaki. And Haruhi. Everyone. So much love~

Ouran is love. But I'm slowly getting sucked into Kyou Kara Maou.
