Confessions of a Crack Addict

So remember how, in the last entry, I said God help me if I ever start reading One Piece manga. >_>?

Yeah. *headdesk*

And, oddly, I spent the rest of the time reading Gundam Wing fanfic. *sigh~* There needs to be more good GW fanfic. I miss it.

So, the other night, I read about 40 chapters of Hunter x Hunter and just fell back in love with the series all over again. Tonight I read about four more chapters before I had to give it a rest before I overloaded myself and switched to Prince of Tennis for a bit. Now, I'm generally not as interested in the TeniPuri manga, because... enh, I like the anime. But I'm all addicted to the shounen thing right now, so Prince of Tennis manga it is! (God help me if I ever start reading One Piece manga. >_>)

Anyway. Just before Rokkaku, about a rumor that one of the members defeated over 100 of the Hyotei players and because they had no proof, Eiji offers a theory: "Ah - I know! He must have defeated Hyotei's cheerleading squad... they have over 100 members!" *SNORT* *loves Eiji*

Have the strange desire to get into Hunter x Hunter again. Perhaps catch up on the manga or finish watching the GI OAV (since I've still got two episodes left--was hard to get into considering it wasn't really anywhere near being finished), am curious to know what's going on in the series right now. And I miss Gon, he was such a cutie. And am oddly attached to Hisoka and wish to see more of him. ....bah. I shall go read TeniPuri fic now.

Wow, have I not babbled since the 1st? Crap. =_= Anyway, random musings:

I was looking through the FAKE section over at FFNET and realized... bleah, I'm really, really just completely not interested in the FAKE boys dealing with the social stigma of homosexuality. It's not really such an issue in the manga, why bring it into the fanfiction? I mean, I realize people are free to write whatever they want and I've long been a fan of realism being interjected into fanfiction, but... I dunno, it just feels like it clashes with the atmosphere of FAKE.

Of course, I also effing hate it when Dee and Ryo get married. That is so a dealbreaker for me and a fic. (Ie, they get married in it? I don't care if it's the best thing ever, I'm not reading it. Bleah.)

I hate WinMX, I really do. It sucks me in with its promises of shiny things for semi-obscure series, like NeoRomance On The Radio with seiyuu like Okiayu Ryoutarou and Inoue Kazuhiko. It lures me in with the promise of more Harukanaru mp3s and video clips with the seiyuu. It sucks away my soul by tempting me with Love Mode and No Money CDs. And, of course. TeniPuri raws.

I hate it.

*sigh* And I've had some luck lately, I've gotten a couple of the NeoRomance radio things, I've gotten a few Harukanaru/Okiayu Ryoutarou mp3s, some Gundam SEED radio things, and even a Hunter x Hunter drama CD track (Uwaaaahhhh! I want the rest of them!), but... it's not near as much as I would like to have in my hot little hands.

*dances* Guess who has JLA #41 through #83~? *ufufufu* I've been dying to read post-75 stuff just for the Bats/Wondy stuff. *hums~*

Random spammy post....

Manga I would like to see scanslated:
*Weiss Side B - RANKEN! GIVE ME THE RANKEN! *coughs* I mean, Side B looks really pretty once you get used to it, and, hey. Nutso!Ken and Alive!Aya/Ran/whatever. Give. Now.
*ANYTHING by Tachibana Kaimu - Her artwork is gorgeous and she has a fantastic sense of humor and her work is vaguely shounen ai. I wish to be able to read her work. Especially Rasen no Kakera and... um... shit... Dark Craibe? Something like that? Want much badly.

....that's all I can think of right now.

Argh. Okay, the Evo section at FFNET has 213 pages. Give me the ability to sort by character already! Because I don't check the catagory every day and I am so not wading through that mess to try to find the decent fics among the crap! There are catagories with fewer fics that are sortable, so why the hell doesn't this one have it, too? Argh.

And, guys. Seriously. Give Teen Titans its own catagory already. Because I can't stand it being in my precrious comic area. It drives the OCD part of me nuts.

I've burned about five or six CDs today (and one of them was my fith TeniPuri-Only CD! *geek*) and I actually have some free space right now, but *SIGH* it's not going to last, because I still have a ton of stuff to download. In addition to the new stuff being posted, I'm still trying to catch up on Fushigi Yuugi, Tokyo Mew Mew, and Xenosaga. This is in addition to wanting to download the re-encodes of Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne, since I watched tiny little low quality versions so many years ago.

This does not include wanting to load up the j-drama group and pick up the GTO drama and a bunch of random movies I'm keeping an eye out for. This also does not include the ton of manga scanslations I downloaded (and burned to CD) or how hideously behind I am with my comic book collecting.

I leave my programs up and running all night, but I still have a hell of a time keeping up with everything, but I am determined to get caught up this week. Sleep soon, but I've got Agent set up to download a crapload while I sleep. Sleeeeeeep.

Anyway. OST hauls since I like to keep notes for myself. Get Backers OST, Initial D Millennium Box 3, 4, & 5 (gotta check to see if I can still get the first two), Hoshi no Koe OST, Lost Universe OP/ED (because even though I've downloaded them about eighteen billion times, whenever I see them posted, I must get them, I LOVE THEM SO MUCH), Gundam X - Side 1, 2, & 3, Uchuu no Stellvia OP/ED, Yoko Kanno - Song to Fly, Matantei Loki Ragnarok OST, MaLoki Drama CD, some random DNAngel songs, FLCL OST 1 & 2, Scryed OST, Gatchaman Symphonic Orchestra (?), Texhnolyze OST, DNAngel Drama CD 1 & 2 & True Light single, Get Backers OP/ED, Jungle wa Itsumo OST, Uchuu no Stellvia Drama CD, a different Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Guu OST, Read or Die - Listen or Die -, Ghost in the Shell Movie OST, Ghost in the Shell: SAC OST, Fruits Basket Song, Prince of Tennis - Cool E, and a new Harukanaru Toki no Nakade drama CD.

This is also in addition to being one show short of burning about my 15th CD of Loveline episodes. (Which I'm actually getting through, since I've been doing fanart surfing--I must have listened to about eight shows in the past three days. XD)

Geek, geek, geek. */geek*
