Silver Star

Finished watching all 51 episodes of Zenki in English. It looks like the OVA Zenki Gaiden wasn't dubbed. It's just one episode so I survived watching it subbed. There are no seeds in it, he style is a more serious exorcism kind of story. It was good, except for he unnecessary bath-service (though I wouldn't complain if it had been grown up Zenki instead of Chiaki and the girls.) I missed the humor from the series, but I liked that it wasn't all about the evil seeds this time. Chiaki looks older. She says she's 17, was she 15 in the series? I don't remember if they ever said it. She didn't do her poses for spell-casting and she had her bracelet, didn't that break? Though its silhouette did appear at the end so maybe another one was formed. Zenki is also quieter and sneakier in this. He actually sneak around and quietly follows Chiaki, hiding in the shadows rather than being stuffed into her luggage like in the series. In short, Zenki got cooler. The fight scene was much better too and had more blood effects.

Chiaki's outfit is slightly different, the skirt seems inconvenient, like she should have kept the old one, but the top looks better. Really only Zelas (from Slayers) could go to battle in a skirt like that and show only exactly what she wants to, but that's just because the dress is also made of her energy). Going back to Chiaki, the sleeves are still huge, but she has to keep her paper charms somewhere I guess. The story was short and predictable, but it was still good seeing this more serious side to Zenki and Chiaki and catching a glimpse at their future career as exorcists after the whole box of seeds thing was solved. Good to see Zenki wasn't sealed after all, though it looks like Goki doesn't follow Chiaki around as much, but he has his human alternate life to live, while Zenki is completely a guardian spirit. (I think he's an oni in the Japanese version though.) None the less Chiaki is able to transform zenki to his ultimate form without doing the star sign and without assistance from Goki. It is said that she would surpass Ozzuno... Lupapa wasn't there, I'm guessing he/she/it stayed home. There's no golden axe either... but Zenki's got new powers. I supposed that to avoid time paradoxes the dragon had to return to its slumber eventually, it can time travel so as long as it eventually goes back it's okay.

I finally ge to role play Eonix at Regnoran http://www.regnoran.proboards.com She's a loud mouth, explosive wielding, obsessive brat with as much regard for danger as a kamikaze. She's got Fuzen's temper, but she actually has a brain and that's an dangerous combination. Thank Kee she's only a medium Zarkavian, though she is very close to large, if she had been a real large... Just imagine a female Fuzen with the ability to think stomping around, that would be dangerous.

I went through my old files and did a clean up. I have a ton of old stuff to post at Deviant Art. O.o;;

Feb 16, 5:05pm - My connection is on and off again. -.-

Feb 16, 6:31pm - Finished the first season of Zenki. I remember some of these episodes from years ago. I would watch them in the morning before school so I was half asleep and everything is bit blurry. Watching them again has felt mostly new, with a few scenes I recognize here and there.

Feb 17, 4:19pm - Lupapa is cute! I had forgotten the little bunny from Zenki and then I saw it and was like "Lupapa!!! :D"

Feb 17, 4:47pm - I found more similarities between Zenki and Inuyasha, I'll post a full list when I finish the series.

Feb 18, 4:49pm - Chibi Zenki's english voice improves a lot in the second season. XD I'm on episode 31 now. I'm on the Liane rescue mission on Jeanne D'Arc.

Feb 18, 4:54 - My internet connection is worse than yesterday. >:(

Feb 18, 10:37pm - Still having fun playing Jeanne D'Arc. Roger's was just revealed and a bunch of free stages were unlocked so I'll be running around the map exploring for a while. I might also go slay some dragons.

February 14, 12:15pm - Why is it that I laugh like an idiot when Zenki says "set fire to my horn"? ...because it's funny I guess?

February 15, 11:37pm - Another game join the human x nonhuman crack club. In Jeanne D'arc it's an elf and a panther. He talks, walks, dresses and acts like a human, but he looks very much like a panther. Granted she's not human and they point out she's different, but really she just has pointy ears. Bartolomeo and Beatrix... I thought she was some sort of beastman hunter when she first appeared wanting to fight him. But no, she was just chasing after her fiance, sadistic Zelda look alike. Too bad she joins so late in the game and the archer spot in my team has already been filled by Reno's little brother, or some kid that looks like he could be. As for the other games with the oddpairs, there's a human x wolfguy wedding in Breath of Fire and I don't mean werewolf, I mean full time anthro wolf, or maybe I should say furry? In one of the endinds of Tetris Battle Gaiden if you play as the wolf he marries the human (purple hair aside) queen at the end. Then there's Slayers, not a game but an anime. They make fun of the other members of the human x nonhuman club with their silly human x fish crack and I don't mean mermaids, but actual fish with silly human arms and legs sticking out of the fully fish body. I'm surprised they haven't paired a human with another nonhuman aside from fish yet, I mean they have all sorts of furries in that crazy Dungeons & Dragons style series that loves to poke fun at itself. As for my progress in Jeanne D'Arc to say it without spoilers, I got the third armor dude and Jeanne is taking a break with Liane stepping into the spotlight for a while. I'm trying to level all my mains to 35.

February 15, 11:52pm - My throat kind of hurts. I hope I'm not getting sick. Now watching episode 18 of Zenki, having fun!
