So I'm more than halfway done with the first season. Oh noes, I should probably slow down. Except I totally won't.

Episodes 11-15 )

And now that I've started poking about the japanwebs for this show, a couple of fanart sites:

あまりないスマイル (Amari nai Smile) -- Mostly Marina/Setsuna (yes, generally in that order), but also, and this is why I care, some weird but well-drawn Shirin/Marina. There is some weird fetish fuel, though.

Arch -- Lockon/Feldt; also Code Geass and a bit of Shinn/Stellar and Dearka/Miriallia. This is a shippy site, and there are some images that are a bit too smutty (if only mildly so) or romantic for my taste, but there are many more images that just perfectly capture the Haro Family Unit (yes, that is what I'm going to call them from now on) dynamic that charms me so much.

I would like to add that it is damned hard to find decent fanart for this series--I don't know whether it's due to a lack of good artists or if Gundam 00 Search is simply poorly constructed, but it's a pain in the ass. I found that Lockon/Feldt site on the last of eight pages of results for the pairing, and damn near all the rest were crap. And I've barely found any Allelujah/Soma that satisfies me yet.

So, I finished Gurren Lagann last night.

Cut for spoilers and spam. )

Fanart links. )

So, uh...with that done, the question is: what now? Well, other than actual RL stuff. I'm thinking Gundam 00--I've already watched the first episode, I just need to get back to it now.

Today, as usual, was a bust. I cashed some checks, got myself a snack, and then did pretty much nothing for the rest of the day.

I'm going to try to make up for that later. Well, okay, maybe not entirely. After Mom finishes up with the NCJW (National Council of Jewish Women, I think) meeting she's hosting downstairs, I'm probably just going to go back to my KHII replay. Because I love the Tron world so much, despite never having seen Tron. And despite hating the Light Cycle minigame.

Meanwhile, I'm reading recaps of the Wire on Television Without Pity and remembering how much I adore that show. It sort of makes me want to get back into RPing Omar (as weird and gross as I feel about RPing a character from a serious business critically acclaimed crime drama, eww that's so lame, instead of some wacky anime or sci-fi show or comic book, which are proper sources of characters to RP). And I'm not sure I'll be able to wait until late November to watch S4. But then again...I have so many other things to watch. I might start watching Heroes later tonight.

I might also work on my fanfic for the request meme; there's at least one that I've got a good idea of what I'm doing for it. And speaking of writing...I'm pondering how I might do NaNoWriMo. Blah blah spam. )

For putting up with my rambling, some random and interesting links:
Drop Dead Gorgeous (a really interesting set of photographs; not sure if I've linked this before, if I have, oh well)
Ninjas, pigeons, and Mannannan mac Lir
Awesome steampunk stuff

And now some more specialized links: all the decent Squall/Rinoa art I can find on Deviantart. )
As a final note: I watched the first episode of Torchwood last night. Holy shit, I want Jack so bad. Maybe I can watch another episode tonight, before I dive into Heroes...

As usual, not much accomplished today. This was partly due to my waking up at four in the afternoon. Sigh. At least I got out of the house, though.

On the plus side, I finally got around to reading Berserk volume 29 (oh, Farnese ♥ ♥ ♥) and watching Geass 21. Mmmm.

No icons today; I didn't feel like trying to boot up Photoshop. I'll wait until I've let the computer rest for a while before doing that.

The main point of tonight's post, however, is to share some shiny links I've been finding. Mostly Gundam SEED, a handful of others.
Snipped mainly for some spam but also for a handful of small graphics. )

And that's it for now. Woo, two pointless weeaboo posts in one night, go me!

Kind of bleah today--and for the past few days, leading to my general lack of a) posting and b) fanfic or icons. Found myself disappointed even by House--I wish I'd been in a better mood to watch it.

Hopefully, getting a decent night of sleep tonight will make me feel somewhat better tomorrow, and I'll be able to work on fic--I think my next goal will be to get that ByakuRuki smut fic done. Uh, and icons. People will probably have to remind me of other things I need to do. But not now--now I sleep.

First, however, the one thing I could get myself to do today (well, and this morning last night) was go hunting for Ouran fanart. I discovered a few things:

1) The Japanese love uke Tamaki.
2) The Japanese really love their twincest.
3) There needs to be more Haruhi.
4) There is, at least, more Kyouya/Haruhi on the Japanweb than there is here. But still not much.
5) There isn't all that much Ouran art, period--at least not yet.

However, I have pulled a few of the best (although some of them are only halfway decent) and will slap them up here to share.
With banners. )
And a big FUCK YOU to Livejournal for making me redo most of this post just as my sleeping pills were kicking in! Thanks, autosave draft :) :) :) :D :D :D !!!!

AUGH I AM GOING NOW. Uh. Soon.

whew  
Went through my list of miscellaneous URLs that I keep in the same file as my fanarts links, picked out the worthwhile ones, and updated my fanarts links. I also finally added English-language sites to the list. I was going to put in links to DA accounts as well, but in the end I was too lazy. Next time!

However, I bring terrible news. Su (http://mc.n-ssk.com/), the greatest NaruSasu site ever made, has departed this world. Fortunately I saved a lot of arts from it, but I will miss it greatly.
