Slowpoke dot jay pee gee

So after having Tsukihime installed on my computer for about the past 7-8 months or so, I’ve finally built up a recent interest in actually playing it. Given this could be because I finished Ceil’s route, but it’s just more of a general will to play through it.

Anyways, I finished up Akihas’ route a little while ago, and that’s the overall reason for this post. Wow, that sucked ass. I was warned beforehand that I’d be pissed with her ending’s, but damn, that was horrible. Figure’s my favorite character, and generally the whole reason I had any interest in the game in the first place gets the crappy ending.

On the other hand, I’m actually looking forward to Hisui’s route. When I first started playing she seemed like the type of character I generally had no real care either way about, but her personality sort of grew on me a bit. I’m looking forward to Kohaku’s route as well of course, but I think I’ve already had quite a bit of it spoiled :(

An interesting theory

Posted in Personal tagged , , , , , at 6:13 am by kagamynn

I think the reason I rarely write about anything, is because I can never think of a title. Or, more to the point, I can never get a single solid subject I want to write something about. It always ends up being “general anime summary”, or 2-liners with a picture. It’s frustrating, because I log in aiming to post *something*, yet I never get to it. And I want to avoid “this is what happened to me today!” posts as much as possible, because I probably hate coming back to my own blog to see that spur-of-the-moment crap there.

However, I think I will have something to write about in the near future, because I’ve finally gotten classes in school that teach me something productive relating to my major. So when I want to sit down and just mess around with C#, and see what I can get to work and what doesn’t work, it’s something productive. I guess once I start doing some game design stuff worth half a damn, I’ll start writing about that here. I’ve got a game idea in my head, and started some basic work on it today, which actually taught me quite a bit about Classes and object-oriented programming (though I’ve still got a LOT to learn). I used a few tutorials to get a sprite moving around the screen, and gave it the ability to jump, but it can’t interact with anything even relatively close to an enviornment, so if I want to actually make this into a playable game, it’s got a long while to go. I’ve also gotta get the idea that these things take time, and won’t be something I can do inside of one day. That’s gonna be a tough one, because I’m a persistent SoB once I start something I enjoy.

That’s about it for now. Gonna go inhale a cup of coffee and then go to sleep. It kept me awake in bed for about an extra hour and a half last night, and it’ll do the same tonight, but it’s totally worth it.

paradym_toradora_-_04_1024x576_h264274a94b503082022-20-58THAT’S FUCKING AWESOME MINORIN.

I want the next episode to come out solely for her.

Sooner or later I’ll write an actual post about something, instead of just doing picture-posts. Soon…

Fuck yeah Kagamin! The rightful winner, as it should be. Sad that the final had to be against Tsukasa, but she said it herself:
