Link of the Day [3.27.09]

Rereading the seven volumes of Strawberry 100% (Ichigo 100%) in anticipation for next one supposedly due in April. I read at least two chapters a day, and I don’t get more than a few panels before Junpei does something stupid at which I’m screaming at him. Or he doesn’t make a move at which I’m groaning about the whole enterprise. Just stupidity on his part.

I’ve peeked at the ending and read the wikipedia entry so I know who he’s ends up with. That’s eleven volumes away though, but I can’t help but wonder WTF is up with this guy.

All three girls dig him. And the other girls in the book dig him too. WTF just pick one of these girls. You know which one. But they are all so cute. Satsuki? She really, really, really likes you. Aya? She’s too shy to express her feelings. Yui? Isn’t she like your a little sister to you? Tsukasa? She’s not your girlfriend no longer.

YARRGH! You make me crazy, Junpei.

Link of the Day [3.18.09]

I wish animation would get out of the silliness that it is in today. There’s plenty of stories to tell with animated characters, 2D or even stop motion. If only there were people creative enough to see animation’s wonderfulness of uses.

Then I see today’s link. I frown. Seth McFarlane is killing us. He’s taken the latter day Simpson formula and jammed it into the bungholes of America with Family Guy, Patriotic Dad and this monstrosity. I know already what the shows going to be about without even watching a single episode.
