Well, Otakon 08′ is finally over.  I’ll be back home tomorrow, then the next day I’ll post some pics and stuff.  CYA WHEN I GET BACK!

I’m actually surprised that no one else has done this yet. Regardless, I go into this having only seen the first episode (I’ll get the dvd this weekend), so keep that in mind. First thing I notice, as I’ve seen everyone else noticed, the OP and ED are QUICK!!! Gotta love how they try to save time. Pissed me off when Adult Swim did that to Cowboy Bebop, as I liked The Real Folk Blues. Regardless, still all goodness in Gurren Lagann-land. The voices actually surprised me with their quality.

The first voice we all wanted to hear, Adult Simon, gave me a boner, I shit you not. It was perfect in my mind, so I thought, “Hopefully Kamina also sounds like this.” Then we hear young Simon,  and once more, I was pleased. The next voice I heard was that of the cheif, and I liked it; his voice got me to give him some more respect. Then… Kamina… I feel that “meh” describes my feelings best. I can feel the correct attitude in his voice, can almost resonate with it, but the quality of the voice messes with me. It needs to be deeper, and a little gruffer. That being said, the point in the story that I actually got a feel for Kamina is when he confronts the giant Gunman around halfway through the episode. I think it’s done quite well, but his voice takes 20 points from it. His yell near the end (he and Simon doing the “if I yell there will be more power” yell) is quite good though. Yoko was goodness. I have absolutely no complaints.

My verdict?  One of the better dubs I’ve heard, but I still feel it could’ve been done better. Maybe the Kamina voicer will grow on me after a while, but I doubt hearing “bro” will. Seriously Simon, it got a little annoying.

Pro: Adult Simon, Young Simon, Yoko, boobs.

Con: Kamina. Hopefully it’ll get better for me.

Favorite Quote: YOKO: “What is this furry thing hiding in my cleavage?”

KAMINA: “A tasty morsel hiding in more tasty morsels.”

Well, in this great and wonderful season of Top Gear (BBC style of course) (better than any other show) Jezza has found some pictures while on teh internetz.  Well, we finally get a chance to see what it is that’s so LOLworthy…

Does throwing in an NSFW!!!!!! make it ok?????????

Have you ever heard of a TV show called Shark? Apparently it’s about a cutthroat prosecutor who has a personal epiphany and needs to redeem himself, or something?

Yeah, I’ve never heard of it either. But apparently a good friend of mine from high school just landed a small role in the season finale episode airing this May.

In other words: watch it or I’ll destroy everything and everyone you’ve ever loved. If that doesn’t convince you, about the fact that she’s a fiercely hot blonde? Watch it! DO IT! DOOO IIIIT!

I keep trying to find new stuff to do on Stewie Live. Make sure you hit the “Kill!” button when it lights up, guys!

…Yes, old flash is old. Also, short post is short. ♥
