THATS RIGHT, Nazgul 5 of Minas Morgul is now establishing its headquarters at Livejournal, under the adress of http://livejournal.com/users/nazgul5. I should get Kaiba-kun to move his blog over there too, but since he never blogs anyway.. -.-;; *sweatdrop*

Nazgul 5 will still stand at blogger while I save all my archives, and until blogger feels it should rip me down. Man, I'll miss this place...Ah well, it's been fun! I'll definetly post back here when the first year anniversary comes around, which is the last week of January. For now, this is Ryou saying good-bye to Blogger and thanks for the service! ^^

Love,
Ryou

FMA 13 and a success in book browsing.

Quote of the Day: "Punch him in the head!"
~~XD Edward's got Roy's fate all planned out...~~

music: Kesenai Tsumi ~ fullmetal alchemist ending theme (i've finally repented against the tv and am wearing my headphones)


FINALLY got FMA 13. Had to cancel all my other downloads though, cause my DN Angel source doesn't have 11-13, so I found another place where I downloaded all 26 in one shot. It's at 23%, 38 hours to go. Eek. My internet may not last two and a half days straight... ah well, as long as I get my hands on 11-13, I'll live.

So yeah, Fullmetal Alchemist 13 was damn good (and damn funny). Ed's imitation of Roy was PRICELESS, it had me falling off my chair giggling, as well as the whole dog situation with Lieut Hawkeye and co. Roy's introduction to the dog was great, too.

Roy: *marches into room and grabs dog, holds it up and inspects it*
Roy: A dog?
*two seconds later*
Roy: PERFECT! ^_______^

And then he goes on with his big dogs-are-slaves-that-don't-complain speech (which was kinda cruel but incredibly entertaining, especially his facial expression), and later with his "When I rule the military, I will make all women wear miniskirts!!" which earned him total loyalty from Havok and a sigh and glare from Hawkeye. XD Womanizer. Kinda gave it away too when he and Edward were about to duel and someone yelled "Give me back my girlfriend!"

Roy and Ed's duel was excellent, I must say, from Roy's provocation (Ed still keeps his record of one freakout bout his height per ep) to Ed's little trick, using a "snowman" with his jacket to fool Roy. The best was probably the end when they were cleaning up together, and Roy looked up wearing what we now call his "huh" expression, eyes half closed. Quite cute. Lemme find it...

Huh?

Hope that works.

So, other than fangirlishly obssessing about FMA, went downtown for a while. Got...what did I get again..Oh, got a fountain pen for inking (*rejoice*) which seems to work much better than my old and war-torn Microms and Sakura pens. Am currently trying to draw Ed in my agenda, who will be followed eventually by Roy, if Shaz and Alicia stop writing letters where I'm sposed to write my homework. Other than that I got Jack Higgin's new Dillon-centered book, Bad Company (which I've read half of so far) so I'm happy I don't have to wait six months for it to come out in hardcover like I did with Midnight Runner.

Went to visit my uncle and cousin after, and got a twenty dollar gift certificate for books, which I'm gonna spend on mangas. Also got from him one of Akira Kurasawa's films, the Hidden Fortress. Gonna see if that's any good.

Must got eat left over cake now. In the words of an icon featuring Ed, "Everything I know I leanred by killing smart people and eating their brains."

My cosplay misadventures.

music: Stupid TV is on T_T They're doing the weather right now. Like I really care.


I have a tendency to improvise cosplay, on purpose or just without realising it. My usual outfit during the summer was mostly a striped sailor-style t-shirt and light blue jeans, which is of course Ryou/Yami B's manga Battle City outfit. Throw a dark blue shirt on top of that, I've got his anime Battle City outfit, and if I use my beige sweater, his Duelist Kingdom outfit. Of course, it wasn't all exact (as in I didn't bother dying my hair white) but it was improvising, which is what I'm doing tonight.

Because my hair is still straight, it's medium length, and my "bangs" are straight and end at my chin. I'm not blonde or anything, but braiding my hair and leaving the sides loose is a pretty decent immitation of Edward's (FMA) hair. So I decided to take it the whole way. I have a pair of black pants (not the sexy leather he wears, but close enough) and a sleeveless black shirt on top. Throw on my longsleeve black sweater, it's not a bad immitation. I've got his boots too (like it's SPOOKY how much they look alike) and a long coat, though it's brown, not red. So for now I'm just having some fun =D
New obssession.

I am officially on the way to being obssessed with Fullmetal Alchemist. It''s GOOD. Actually, it's excellent. Watched eps 8-11 yesterday and 12 this morning. Something went wrong when I was downloading 13, so it's in the process right now. 2 hours left.

7 and 8, I must say, were rather disturbing, going from Nina (that was just...disturbing) to *snort* Barry the Chopper (that was, if possible, almost more disturbing). And, as a record, Edward cried two eps in a row. On a brighter side, we got to see him with his hair loose, for however brief a period of time. That was cute. I've also been keeping a record that he has at least one hissyfit regarding his height every ep.

In ep 13, we apprently get to see more of Roy (*drool*), so am waiting patiently for that. On the note of eps 11 and 12, I hope I'm not the only one who took an immediate liking to Russel as soon as I laid eyes on him XD He's VERY cool. I know his voice from another anime but I can't quite place it. Also, it was pretty funny hearing Kruuze's voice coming from that other dude. Kinda spooked me the first time.

So, while I'm waiting for ep 13, I might just put my talent as a fanartist to work.

.....Blah.

I think I've officially gotten myself hooked onto FullMetal Alchemist. Its just SO COOL. Pray they don't license it any time soon *knocks on wood three times*.
I'm still only at ep 7, now waiting for 8 and 9 to finish downloading, but it's great. And it'll be easy with me to catch up with since only 12 eps are out. I'm not sure if they come out on a weekly basis or what. So when I'm done all twelve of FMA, I'll go back to finish my downloads of DN Angel.

Best ep so far in FMA in my opinion is 5, because not only is Roy oh so cool in it *drool* but Edward has some great stunts too. I fell off my chair laughing during the scene where he looked through the train window upsidown and stuck it his tongue out. That was hilarious. I want that as my ava but can't capture the damn thing. I'd kill to be able to just frame that on my wall. Priceless.

Only forty more minute till ep 8 finishes downloading..*eye twitch*
