Of Wolves & Witches…
So I haven’t been posting in a while now… ^_^ Finals are over and I’m finally on holiday! This year has definitely been tough work but I’m glad I’m done with the hard part; on a slightly related note, I’ve got to do some industrial training at the end of the year as well. That’s gotta suck. >.<
Now that I’m on holiday, I’ve been watching quite a few animes. My sister and I started watching Wolf’s Rain; she hasn’t finished it since she’s been studying for her exams, but I have, and it’s actually quite a good anime. I’m starting on Witch Hunter Robin now and that seems pretty good too, except that the dubbing can get a little awkward. It’s strange to think how Soon Yie and I used to only watch subbed anime, but nowadays, we prefer the dubbed ones. =D Probably cuz we’ve been exposed to so many awesome english voice actors from video games and stuff… ^_^
I’ve been watching the first season of Ah! My Goddess in english as well. Although I didn’t really have high expectations for the english voices, they turned out not too bad in the end! All the characters were cast quite well even though one of them sounds like a shrieking cat. I tried watching Fate/Stay Night too but after 2 episodes, it was still sort of blah, so I dropped it. There was another new series called Darker Than Black that came out sometime this year; it actually wasn’t that bad too. The animation was really high-quality and the characters were pretty intriguing, plus some of the concepts they used were interesting too. The plot seemed to be the weakest point for me, but maybe that’s just cuz I don’t really get it in the end… XD Looks like I’ll have to wait for the dubbed version!
Soon Yie and I will be leaving for Malaysia on the 4th of December– that’s about 2 weeks away! I’m pretty excited about that since I haven’t been home in close to a year. This time I’ll be home longer than usual cuz I won’t need to follow Soon Yie back here when she starts school earlier, so yay for that! ^_^
