Another Visual Novel? Western?


Beautiful art, Amazing music, Unique gameplay, and on top of that, A FEMALE PROTAGONIST?!?! Full of win. Seriously

Shikkoku no Sharnoth -What a Beautiful Tomorrow- came out last friday and thanks to Panda (yes i did call you Panda) he introduced it to me and i gotta say, its awesome. Sure its not translated and yes i don't know the whole plot of this game (yet) but its just simply mind boggling (?). I mean im making a post dedicated to this. Thats gotta mean something right? >.>

All i know is theres a Black World, main character, Mary Clarissa Christie (the one with the mixed colored eyes), has a golden eye which appears to be very important, "The M" is interested in Mary, and the whole world is covered in Clouds. Yep thats all i know. Good thing there is voice dialog in the visual novel so i can understand a little on what is going on but other than these points, i have no idea whats the point lol.

And also Sherlock Holmes and Winston Churchill are also characters in here but i have yet to encounter Sherlock yet.

Whats unique about this visual novel is the gameplay like i mentioned earlier. Instead of fighting enemies, u're actually running away from them. weird isnt it? u have to find 4 fragments in order to pass the stage and theres 4 counters A/B/C/D which tell you have many spaces u are from each fragment. Its also turn based. To me its pretty fun since its a new concept plus running away from enemies is kinda of a challenge if u dont move in the right spaces.

Well thats all i really have to say about this game. Love the art (they need to make wallpapers), the music is awesome, and seriously...a female protagonist!


Baron Munchhausen. He just look badass.

Onto Fall!


Ah fall....the cold is back, night falls faster than ever, and waiting for buses is even more of a pain =_=

Happy Be-lated Birthday to Chihara Minori!!! Her birthday was 2 days ago but yay! (favorite Seiyuu and jpop singer ^^). She's now 28 and her next album entitled "Parade" is coming out next Wednesday, Nov. 26 so thats something to look forward to. For me atleast =P

Thanksgiving is also coming up next week. Family gathering, huge feast, and of course the traditional turkey. Me, however, is stuck working for 8 hours serving the turkey to elderly people.....how fun. Well atleast i get extra pay and that sure is something i need right now. Mai family dont really celebrate Thanksgiving anyway.

Laptop is getting outdated....severely...tryng to find good deals and get a better one with a decent graphics card. Mai desktop is on maintenance and no idea when ill get to it. wonder if i can request one for a Christmas present...naw mai parents would never...guess i have to work more =_=

A Whole New Beginning...

Wow it has been awhile huh? Ive been meaning to go back to updating earlier but i just couldnt bring maiself into it haha. well its already November now meaning elections are over, semester is alittle more than halfway done, start to think more on what to do for the year 2009 since its only 2 months away....yea alot of things are gonna be happening and already has happened so all we can do is wait for now.

Congrats to Senator Obama on being the next president for the next four years. Personally im not that into politics so to be it sorta just happened. It was a total landslide and now having the first African American president in the US, there is bound to be change. For better or worse it all depends on how u look at it.

Enough about politics. College life. yea....it is something. probably only sound this way since im in a community college for now haha but things are going pretty well for me. Grades are steadying up, passed all mai midterms already, and most importantly, saving a hell like of money haha. I have future plans of course so im not gonna stay there forever. Some occasions i go ahead and visit UMCP just for the hell of it. Need to visit more often now but been busy lately and after i get a car (which is already being processed right now) ill most likely go over there more often to hang out with some friends and such =].

Other than that...life has been pretty good so far. College life is much better than High school by far. Just relaxing more and pretty much just going with the flow. Been watching some interesting anime this season which is surprisingly really good. Too many to keep track haha but i have time...sometimes. Ill be sure to update more frequently, including new purchases i got, future plans, and such. Till then, enjoy life and prepare whats in store in the future =]
