What.. 2012 Already..!?

Time goes too fast to notice all the small things in life.. so 2012, huh; the final year in which the world will come to an end. Speculation and superstition aside, let's wait and see cause I'm quite fascinated regardless of the outcome..

Anyway!

So I managed to finish Toaru Majutsu no Index.. both seasons. Actually, I finished watching this anime within a week or two from where I announced it which was in December - but hey. Can't say much about it, other than that it was quite entertaining but also infuriating because now I'm anxiously awaiting a third season for the open ending they gave me. I might write a brief review about it one of these days, when I feel like it (which might incline; never).

In other news..

I have become a part of what is by some people considered 'the cancer of the internet' for quite a while now. Don't think it takes much to know what I'm talking about here. But really, I can't grip all the controversy around this certain show/subject. There are grown men watching Cardcaptor Sakura and/or "insert girlish anime here" and you don't see people whining about that, do you.. so what's the difference - cause I can't see it. It just proves that when something is generally liked enough by a big audience, there's always going to be people hating on them. Haters gonna hate, 'nuff said.

Minecraft is now 20% Cooler!

Not really, but with the upcoming 1.2 patch/release, it's going to become a lot more fun once again - despite that it still lacks a lot of 'deco' content in my opinion. To prepare for this and get into the Minecraft mood, Jaruga and I have picked up an old project we once wanted to build in the game. Back then we never got any further beyond even laying the base because it was a lot of work without the creator mode and ability to open up a flat canvas. But now.. we do have those options! So behold the monstrosity we have managed to build so far in one and a half day (which includes 1 do-over because we failed hard in the beginning).


That's pretty much it.. The Hokage Wall, Building/Office and 4 Houses from Hokage Street. It's going to be a really big project this time, because we will not only build the Hidden Leaf Village, but the rest of the villages as well. Time will tell what comes out of this, but I think it looks pretty good so far and we're a first for trying to build it as accurate as can be.

A full review progress report will be posted or uploaded to either my YouTube channel or our Animeshin blog - but we'll have see what works out best.

And that's all for now..
