Zoalord Teleportation
I'm sure that with the current technology Cronos has compared to the technology and know-how the had during the time Yentsui was created, an upgraded version is possible. As for the eyes of Yentsui, I think he required those eyes because he was using invisible portals. With the technology they harvested from the G-units, they might even be able to utilize the boost dimension. Speaking of teleportation, it looks to me like Yentsui is using another dimension to access his teleportation skill. Could this skill be similar to that of Carleon? I mean, it dawned to me just know when Carleon was facing Apollon, it might be possible that Yentsui is capable of penetrating Carleon's dimension. But then, the "my lord" phrase already rules him out.

One Piece
Ooh, so Luffy has declared war on one of the Yonkou. This is interesting. I hope the fights are better than those of Hody Jones. We still haven't seen Luffy fight seriously yet.

Books and Novels
I'm done reading Isaac Asimov's robot series which include "Bicentenial Man", "Caves of Steel", "Naked Sun", "Robots of Dawn" and "Robots and Empire". I enjoyed reading them and I'm looking forward to reading more literary classics.

Guyver February 2012
I think the clones are something similar to the biomissle. Could it be possible that once the clone gets out of range from Aptom's main brain control wave radius, that the clone would become independent? Then once they get back in range, they would simply consolidate data from each other and then merge back? Just like how Multiple Man does it from the x-men. Wouldn't it be a kicker if Aptom can actually manage to do a Taijuu Kage Bunshin no Jutsu? But with such many clones, do you think he still have the mental capacity to control that many clones?

shall I upgrade mediawiki?
I did seem to notice recently that there are updates to the wiki page. When did you do this? The wiki pages looks sharper. At least I think now we can use the "hide/show" feature for spoilers. I saw you did it in your profile.

if you like naruto...
Oh, you've already tried fairy tail? I wasn't aware of that, or perhaps I missed that in the previous posts. Anyway, if you've seen it once and didn't like it, then I guess there's nothing more I can convince you with. Besides, I've only seen about 2 or 3 episodes of fairy tail, so I can't comment much on the anime. Hunter X Hunter, I can vouch since I've read the manga and seen the anime, both incarnations. As for Gundam Age, I haven't seen it yet. This is probably the first Gundam Series that I am not following (except for Turn A Gundam, which I would also like to call Turn Away Gundam ). Thanks though for reminding me. I make it a habit of watching all the Gundam series, but this new series seems to be an exception. I don't know why though.

Zoalord Teleportation
Speaking from experience and personal knowledge, I can say that the surname of Li Yentsui is Li and his given name is Yentsui, if we presume that this is a chinese name. Li is not a common given name but a common family name. Similar to Bruce Lee, his Chinese name was Lee Shao Long. Or Jet Li as Li Lian Jie, or even Jacky Chan who is also known as Chen Long. But regarding the supposed mass teleportation during Mount Minakami, perhaps this is another of Alchanfel's abilities. I mean, surely he also has the ability of Yentsui, then we managed to see him escape a black hole. Perhaps it was this same ability that Alchanfel used to be able to teleport himself.

If that is the case, then it will be really hard for us to recommend anything to you. And so far, most of what we've recommended doesn't seem to pass your standards. Perhaps maybe your viewing habits make you think too much of the feature you're watching? But anyway, you might want to try watching Fairy Tail. The settings of that series is something like old mystical times, since the main subject of the series is about magic. It's like Naruto, but instead of ninjas and techniques, you get mages and magics. The main protagonist is called Natsu Dragneel, he was raised by the Dragon Igneel and learned his Fire Dragon Slaying magic from aforementioned dragon. He can basically eat any kind of fire to be manifested as his own power. The main narrative is related through the eyes of Lucy, a stellar mage.

The Avengers
Well, the thing about the Captain America movie was that the first half was awesome. I can't say the same for the latter half. And this is coming from a Captain America fan.

What live-action series are you watching or have you watched?
Ah, Kiva. At the start, I kinda liked Nago, but after he went emo, I hated him. Even after he redeemed himself, he only turned into a comic relief which I find him to be pathetic. After lying dormant for months in my PC after weeks of "acquiring" them, I finally got around to watch Agito. The series makes direct references to Kuuga with the development of the G3 armor for combatting Unidentified Lifeforms, and referring to Agito as something similar to Number 4, which is what Kuuga is called by the public. It would make you think that Agito is actually a sequel to Kuuga. So far, watching only up to episode 2, Agito is giving me a good impression, unlike much more recent Rider series. I'm expecting that I would like this series.

if you like naruto...
Well, I'm currently reading Fairy Tail and I'm immensely enjoying it. It's something like a mage version of one piece. I'm not so sure about the start of the anime, but I saw a few episodes of the anime via animax which made me seek out the manga. If watching the anime takes too much of your time, perhaps you might want to read the manga instead? The series does often refer to the term "Nakama" or "comrade" depicting the ties of each guild member and their bond.

how do you have your tea?(or other hot beverage)
Wow, really? I was not aware of that. I am aware that you need to do something extra in the process but not on a certain temperature. Have you ever tried green tea brewed from your local tea house Perhaps you can try if the tea really does taste different if done properly before you go brewing your own. Might save you a lot of trouble. Have you seen the traditional tea ceremony before? I've been to a tea house in which a staff will brew the tea in front of you (that's in China), and I have to say, the way they brew the tea is not the simple boil in water type. It involves heating the water in a burner and an odd way of mixing the tea leaves and another odd process of pouring the brew into the cup. Most of the green tea I've tried are somewhat bitter, and not much different from any traditional tea, except for the different aroma. Of course traditionally, we drink tea without any additives like milk or sugar. We drink it straight. It is only recently that I have tried drinking what is called "Milk Tea" To tell you the truth, I don't even consider "Milk Tea" to be a true tea. I see it as something like a specialty drink because it tastes sweet and served cold. It's like the distinction between black coffee and a frappuccino, with frappuccino not really coffee.

Managed to have a taste of the Uji Matcha Milk Tea last night. Very smooth to the taste. I think I'm having a love for green tea. Especially when it's combined with red beans. I'm speaking of course about milk tea. Though I also enjoy the traditional green tea, the one you put in tea pots, I prefer to drink them with something to eat. Unlike Milk Tea which I can enjoy individually.

Anime you are currently watching and/or Downloading
I accidentally stumbled upon Beelzebub on Animax. I have to say, it has a lot of LOL moments. It's story is about a high school delinquent tasked to take care of the Demon King's baby. Very funny and a lot of humorous violence. And because of the single episode I saw on Animax, I'm now currently reading the manga and just finished chapter 63. Fairy Tail also has a lot of potential. I've heard good stuff about it. There are also a lot of potentially good anime being shown on animax.

Guyver November 2011
Well, the fact that both Lisker and Valcuria are inspectors might make you think that they are related somehow, or at least they are high enough in the ranks of cronos to know something relevant. Also, during Liskers time, wasn't inspectors supposed to be candidates for becoming hypers or any equivalent? And surely there must be a reason why valcuria would come to Japan. And the Guyvers are definitely somewhere at the top of the list.

American Comics
Given a lot of crappy storylines recently, got anything good to read? There seems to be something cooking with the cosmic scene and I haven't been able to get any information about it. The thanos imperative might not have the best plot, but its ending moved me.

Ah, the ever loving Rockman. I'll admit, I never got the chance to play that game. Stopped playing ever since they shifted to 3D. I think X6 was my last Rockman. Don't tell me that it's still Sigma in X8? Anyway, here's my music video contribution. Another song from the lovely ladies of Girls Generation with their song Run Devil Run.

One Piece
Yeah, kinda disappointing. It looks like Luffy kinda finished Hody with a 1 hit kill. So that's it? The action was a let down, but there seems to be more to Shirahoshi as Robin starts asking questions.

Guyver January 2012
Perhaps Shizu's zoacrystal is not as refined as that of the other zoalords, that distance may reduce the effectivity of the mental commands. Even Zoalords like Kabral would require the assistance of the psychic wave generator to summon zoanoids from a distance. And also, who is to say that she hasn't already?

Guyver January 2012
Hmm.... I may have been gravely mistaken with my conception. Quite right about Agito being in Israel prior to being brought into Tokyo via Cocoon. Then I've got nothing about the link. Alpha waves? Although I can vouch that the cocoon came rushing toward Mizuki was because of the programming Shou inserted into it. I know that It was Shou's subconscious that wanted to protect his friends by amassing more power, with the basic principle of protecting his friends, which it did when Mizuki screamed for Shou. Though the control metal may have links to each other, the user might not be consciously aware of this. This might probably the reason why Shou is not aware of Agito.

Guyver January 2012
I, for one, don't see any mental link, but more for dramatic purposes. It was also my understanding that the Guyver can communicate mentally. So since Agito was present during that time, the scenes might have been transmitted by Guyver III to Guyver I. Or Guyver I has been monitoring the events through Guyver III. I don't know, but I still think that Mizuki screaming and the cocoon appearing is nothing more than a dramatic entrance for the Gigantic.

A very nice cover of B.o.B ft. Bruno Mars' song "Nothing on You" by the Korean pop gril group Wonder Girls. Don't mind the nasal accent though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UykHXEXTxag
