Okay, I've graduated from university again. Now I'm job hunting while also trying to get a hold of my supervisor so I can get on a set shift at work. I'm really starting to think he has a phobia for answering phone calls since it's always a pain in the *** to get him via phone or even text. Still doing Breath of the Wild videos.

No, I'm saying he might never be lenient at all with Guyver. He's had a lot of say in the 2005 anime adaption and some in the live action movies. If any of the interviews are to go by for both projects: he's not easy to talk/work with. He didn't even get an assistant until recently! All I'm saying is that this is more of a hobby to him than something he's fully committed to and doesn't want to put much more effort into it being a franchise, let alone draw in an international audience.

I feel as if Takaya sees the series as more of a hobby that has gained a following and doesn't want to put any more effort into aside from what's available in Japan. Don't get me wrong: I like the fact that he's taking the time to figure out where he's taking the story and being involved with the statue development (seriously, the time taken to design and then run several prototypes of said statues are ridiculous but worth it), BUT he's not making a living off of Guyver. With how many hiatuses he's gone on from the series, there's no way he's paying bills with this! Not even with the merchandise to go with it! I'm starting to think that he doesn't want anyone else to come in and attract attention to it from outside of his home country.

About to start final exams this week! Then I can tell this university to go **** themselves for constantly screwing me over on tuition costs! Other than that, I've got a good start on a Playlist on YouTube for BotW going. I think I'm up to six episodes of it now? Anywho: extremely fun game with a lot of exploration and numerous ways to die. I also got a new microphone to record my voice; a lot better than using a headset. Still, I'm not getting many views on those videos and I'm not sure what to do to get more attention to the series. What do you guys think?

I'm already playing Breath of the Wild for the Wii U (soooooo good!). Looking forward to the new Fire Emblem games mostly.

My browser gave me a message while I was signing in that this site is "not secure and your sign in might be compromised". Has the security system not been updated and FireFox is just being a worrywart, or is something else going on?

I know we have several theories as to why Alkanphel sleeps as long as he does, but Mat Pat on YouTube came out with a theory for the movie Logan that I thought might be a plausible theory as well. Considering that Guyver has a heavy setting in the science of genetics, I thought that it's possible that the situation ol'Wolverine is in could be possible for someone as old as Alkanphel or any of the other Zoalords later down the line. What do you guys think? Possible, or does Mr. Takaia have something else up his sleeve to explain Alky's condition?

I've got the DVD set of the OVA. You can painfully tell in the second half that they switched hands in the animation department (as an artist, I cringe every time I see the proportion mistakes).

Guess who's playing Breath of the Wild!!

Okay, so I've been busy running my butt off working and going to school; working because my university decided to be dicks and raise the tuition without notifying anyone about it, and I'm now taking the more advanced classes for my degree FINALLY! Today my stepmom and I got to go to a Newsboys concert and meet the band in person. The Newsboys are a contemporary Christian rock group, and it was the first time for them to come to our part of the state, so that show sold out a week after the tickets went on sale. IT WAS AWESOME!! My stepmom is still in hog heaven because she got to shake hands with her favorite guy of the group! I even got to bro fist the drummer for playing through a technical difficulty during the performance.

Well, this is one hell of a way to start the new year..... I recently came down with a bad cold after Christmas, and like any person with a brain I got some over the counter cold medicine. It helped at first, until two days ago when I needed to get up for work and I felt sluggish as all get out. I didn't fully wake up until two hours into my shift (luckily I got assigned to something I can do on auto-pilot). Today, I got a burning feeling in my chest that wouldn't go away until I drank water. I have both day time and night time meds, but with what's happened I've stopped taking them and am going to the doctor tomorrow about this. I've never had an issue like this before and I hope it's nothing serious.

So, I got Pokemon Moon recently...and am having a blast! I got Poplion as my starter, which I do not regret, and have completed the main story. Right now I'm exploring all of Alola, trying to find certain Pokemon, and finding new places to explore. As for school: I'm doing fine in my Digital Design classes, my Spanish not so much. I don't think I've ever met a professor that's unfamiliar with English slang and expects us to remember every little word change in Spanish. I've tried my best to remember, but the format of his exams and online assignments do not help me in the least, especially since he keeps failing to inform us when our assignments are available and due. Sure, I had a Philosophy professor for my German class, but for the love of all that is good he at least made it easier for us to "connect the dots" so to speak in his exams, quizzes, and assignments. We even had fun making short stories in German, but with this Spanish class we're not doing anything to further cement the language in our brains. We started out with basic phrases, and then jumped straight into the "go-go" verbs, stem changing verbs, and so on while also learning the grammar along the way. I am learning more Spanish from my Duolingo app than this class!

20) Rhia, stay out of Grace's yarn stash. (Rhia: Oh come on! The rec room looks so much better than it used to!) (Grace: You yarn bombed the Council Room too, not to mention part of the Pillars of Heaven's command post!) (Rhia: .....I always did say they needed some decoration there.....*sweat drops*)

Got to see the new Shin Godzilla movie It was like one big homage to the original B-rated status of the very first movie! My boyfriend and I are awaiting the parody films to come out, and we're planning on making one too; there's just so much material to poke fun at! I just hope they don't pull America's Godzilla 2000 with the next one....

19) Never mess with the coffee machines unless you are very suicidal. (Scott: The coffee maker is sacred. Everyone in Cronos runs on it.) (Grace: The rookies learned quickly not to switch it out for decaf after Aptom pranked us. There's a reason why you never mess with it, anywhere, especially when a Smith is working in said building at the time.) (Scott: Is that why Aptom runs in the opposite direction every time we see him?) (Grace: *smirks and drinks coffee*)

Shin Gojira / New Godzilla July 2016

Well now....o.O This is gonna haunt me for a while.... -
Ready to start school. I go back on the 22nd of this month, and I leave my crew after the 19th for another position that's two nights a week. I just need to run by the book store to grab the remaining textbooks I need for this semester. Heck, I'm super happy just because my employer's willing to work around my school schedule; the two nights a week job pays $2 more than my current job, so I'll still have cash coming in while at school for once. Nothing else seems to be going on in my life other than working my rear off (if not sweating it off).

Augh.....work, work, and more work is all I seem to be doing these days.... Not much to report on, except that I might have gotten my future-sister-in-law into Pokemon. I've also pre-ordered the upcoming Pokemon Moon and the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Other than that it's been work work work until my feet fall off. That reminds me: we had no running water at work today. It gets over 100 degrees in the warehouse my crew works at, so imagine my employer company and our contracted company's surprise and panic when we ALL learned that there was no running water in the ENTIRE building. There's a construction crew across the street from where we work at that's been known to damage public property, like an INTERNET TOWER! They somehow managed to dame the water line connected to the building, including the side that is rented by another big name company. We, the workers, had to go to a nearby gas station or convenience store to use the loo or grab some sports drinks (they contain electrolytes and potassium, which helps the body retain water longer); our contracted company sent us three 24-bottle cases of water an hour and a half after we started working to keep us hydrated for our shift.

2005 anime, episode 14: Escape in the Rain. That's where he explains how he came to be a Proto-Zoalord.

This brings up the question of: if a normal human with a metal allergy were to be processed, would that allergy still affect the processed human? There are people with silver/gold intolerance in various degrees of severity.

Thanks, Chern, and I sent you a link on the PM before I saw your post here

I just got back from spending four days with my boyfriend and his roommates, and I think I'd enjoy living with them when I move in. It'd be nice to stay with my bf 24/7 and not have to worry about my dog chewing up Dad's stuff. My brother's fiancee has already moved in with them for the summer, so we've all been looking for a bigger place to move into; the apartment they live in is pretty small for three guys and a lady. Once they've bought a house, I'll move in with them. I also got to record a Harvest Moon video with a capture card I won on eBay and got the third roommate to join in on the commentary. It was hilarious once the sarcasm started to roll!

Vol. 32 arrived earlier than I expected this week! Love it, and laughing at how easily Agito kicked some arse. By the way, who's the guy standing next to Takaya at the back of the book? Is he the new assistant/editor? Anywho, I've been playing a game called Story of Seasons, and am enjoying it immensely. This is officially part of the Harvest Moon series, but Marvelous, the original company that made the series, didn't have the rights over the English name (Natsumi did, and their game flopped big time), so now it's called Story of Seasons. A lot of the mechanics from previous Harvest Moon games got to come back and get perfected, along with a number of new mechanics that make the game more enjoyable. They've also added Angora Rabbits to their livestock selection (THEY ARE ADORABLE!!!) and a whole slew of new crops to plant. I'm going to be attached to game for a long time.

I've got volume 32 on the way in the mail And I got the cord yesterday, tested it, and it works like a charm. Now, I need to figure out how to better situate my phone's camera to better capture the screen. Over the weekend, my bf and I went to my old university's Alumni Weekend (it's similar to a class reunion, but for all Alumni). We didn't do much, but we did get to see some of my old friend and professors and get my kiln back from my ceramics instructor. We did have fun though, and he got to buy some fox drawings from one of my friends (he loves foxes).

My boyfriend has been listening to a certain Undertale song....and it's now stuck in my head! He's been playing it for the past week now, especially when we've been organizing his work space for our cosplay work. I've also got a cable on the way in the mail, so hopefully I'll have a way to record some 3DS gameplay soon.
