Thank you (again!) everyone for joining me on my Tumblr journey; even after two months, I’m so blown away by how welcoming the Natsume fandom is. To say “thank you!” to all my followers and the fans who have yet to discover my tumblr, we’re giving away a complete set of Ember plushies:

Ember...

My friend showed me this screenshot...

And my mind automatically went to this...

Um excuse me but do you still make QR codes for Animal Crossing New Leaf??

Honestly, I haven’t in a long while, but I was actually thinking about picking up the game again! Was there something you’d like to request?

So I was checking my mail and I stumble upon this...

"In news guaranteed to satisfy manga fans, film geeks and evil pre-teen sociopaths, Guillermo Del Toro (Hellboy, Pan's Labyrinth, Pacific Rim) recently announced his involvement in an HBO pilot for an adaption of Naoki Urasawa's horror manga Monster. Not only is everyone's favorite geek-director producing, writing and directing the pilot, but he also revealed that the show would be a strict adaptation of the manga with no “extra” content to pad out the episode count. GDT plus HBO? Yes, please."

So... Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of Del Toro (I love the first Hellboy, and that's about it), but I'm actually pretty excited to see results when it comes out since the story is fairly realistic.

Sadly, I don't have HBO... bah.

That just got me thinking, whatever happened to the plans for a live-action Black Jack series or did that go down the toilet?

I can see that being a bit difficult since you'd want to attract non-nerdy people to the series. 

You'd end up having to: redesign his look~ make up some new story for Pinoko (if she even exists in the series), probably renaming some of the characters... 

But if they did it right, it could be a good series if it ever came to into existence, but on the same token, it could be terrible if done wrong. Unfortunately, I sense more going wrong than going right with this series. Wish they would ask for fan-input when it came to this stuff. Then everyone could be happy with something that could have ended up with a very scary result.

Or they could even offer fans to submit scripts for different chapters of the manga, that would allow people to try to make it acceptable and appealing for everyone watching. I love manga just as it is, but I'm trying to think realistically with people who aren't used to Tezuka's storytelling. Prime example is Pinoko, I don't think the average person would be as accepting of her origin story as many of the fans are.

I mean you could completely skip over her story, and say she was a patient of his that he ended up adopting (which is true to the manga), but then you'd have to remove her real age or make the excuse that when she says she's 18 because she has such a huge crush on him, she wants to be of marrying age (but you'd have to take into consideration how dark the series would be).  I think the best course of action for viewers here would be to make her a 11 to 13 year old who's simply his adopted daughter and assists him in emergencies.

Yeah... I went on a long rant.

Having too much fun with Smash Bros. Demo... Can't wait till the full game comes out.

It.... It looks a lot better on the avatar than like this...

Might redo this in the future because it looks crapactular.
