Before i write, im not really sure of all the names, they are quite difficult to remember, those that are side characters that is, Basilisk is an anime in Japan which is loosely based on an old Japanese conflict that may of occured, im not overly sure to be honest

Basilisk tells the story of the Kouga and the Iga, 2 Japanese Ninja clans in the feudal era of Japan, 2 Ninja clans sworn to hate each other, who have had a long history of Conflict and bloodshed between one another.

Gennosuke of the Kouga and Oburo of the Iga, both have been passed down the honour of leading the 2 clans, both are lovers, but both are sworn to a fate that cant keep them together, with the no hostilitys pact broken, both clans begin the fighting again, basically each clan has a scroll with 10 of the best Ninja from each clans for them to kill, Kouga didnt get this scroll, but eventually find out..

Basilisk has a ton of violence, for one, every episode a main character seems to die, a lot of stuff happens, like one guy loses his sister… another lost her lover, to the conflict.. its a sad and tragic tale that pretty much is awesome in every imaginable way

dont get me wrong, this is pretty much an ideal end of month post, since i need to get my blog sorted out and sectioned and start writing about more then what i am now but meh.. heh. undecided if im going to use this as my main blog and talk about the real world, who knows? lol

Oburo is cute.. for a woman that is, i have to admit if she were real ild totally be like Oburo your so hot lol

Japan in the real world has Kouga/Iga towns, which happen to have Ninja schools? conincidence .. no without reading the history of Japan it wouldnt surprise me if the towns and locations in the anime were real

A little further into the game, i finally reached the point of the Leviathan ship but more over i would basically pretty much like to say about the parts before

So after clearing the mines, theirs a fairly mediocre Basch returning to Rabinastre for the first time in years, but more over, you find out that Penelo has been kidnapped.. what surprised me, is, i assumed this was left about of the American version or read something along those lines, or maybe the Japanese version?..

Basically these people that hate Balthier, and i cant see how thats difficult to do, have taken Penelo, long story short you fly on a totally cool airship to rescue her, but first you must go to this remote island in the skys, goverened by Ondore, im pretty sure this is in Arcadian teritory but not actually controlled by them on the Count larsa is also living there and hes related to Vayne.

Amusingly or not the conclusion to this is rather underwhelming, i mean after reaching the end of the mines we basically get a boss encounter but instead of fighting, you … run away?.. and fight at the same time.. only 4 of them and 6 of you but oh noes.. you cant win apparently… meh thats a load of you know what as.. i managed to kill one in one quickening move.

eventually you find out that Penelo has been taken to Ondores place, she was origionally going to be arrested by the judge for being around the mines etc but Larsa the kid brother of Vayne? helped her.. which is cool i guess

the part next rocked i mean you walk around saying im captain basch, dont listen to Ondores lies, etc which leads the insurgents to finding you arranging a meeting with Ondore, who betrays you for a reason since he knew you could rescue ashe from the judge in his own way.. hes not all that bad eh..

i like this game because it pretty much has a great deal of stuff going on at the same time, but also because it doesnt always solely rely on long boring dragged out dungeons with random counters every 2 seconds  to make it drag out for hours before the exit, then story scene..  i think on average i bet each dungeon in like 20 minutes or so.. im currently 15 hours in, and so i could guess, around 20 percent through the game

Penelo <3

Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix finally came out in Japan today, but its left me somewhat disapointed and sore again, i mean, theirs so much new stuff in this game, and its in english yet i seriously doubt it”l see a North American/Europe release.

some of the new stuff is like

New Areas to explore, with new features, the battle with Roxas at the world that never was, is no longer a cutscene, but an actual battle, and.. lastly im sure this isnt the last new thing but… for arguements sake.. more battles with the Organisation 13 members.

now.. its weird.. i mean they also did chain of memories as a seperate game and included that with it.. im not at all that bothered about the new final mix scenes, i want to play chain of memories because its well new, well if you count a remake of the gameboy game.. i think you can play as Riku.

Lastly… the only thing that annoyed me about the game was the boss battle the dude thats like Dance Water Dance the dude at  Beasts castle was a pain.. i dont feel like.. playing again

so… we can all take solice in the fact that another country is getting a game we”l never play in full english no less.

Namine is very much <3

Long overdue i know, well i recently got into this game, i was thinking i probably wouldnt like because i read and heard the battle system is a bit like final fantasy 11s, which put me off somewhat, but its a really different game in some regards, yet samey in the others, the game has the large open enviroments of final fantasy 11, and the random, hit the monster, wait, hit back, hit the monster approach as done by final fantasy 11, thing is, i dont find this game boring.

The Opening scene, and from this moment onwards, this will seem spoilerific, so complain at your own discretion.

Basically it shows and tells about Arcadias invasion of Dalmasca, and eventually sees what we would call Basch, kill the king, obviously you find out that it wasnt Basch, but his twin brother but dang, i guess if i hadnt of read that Vaan was the main guy i would of assumed Reks was.

Reks fights off the soldiers, goes to join Basch or what he thought was Basch, gets stabbed, 30 minutes after the game starts and dies, Game over lol, Shortest game ever. well final fantasy =P

Alrighty, some key points

Reks was introduced, was playable, until dying

Vaan sneaks into the Palace after hearing Vaynes speach, he dislikes the way his town/people around him are treated, Penelo and him have lost their parents due to the war, he eventually meets Balthier/Fran, escapes, minor arguement, eventually seeing Amalia, gets captured by soldiers.. they escape.

Meet Basch, free him, he explains, Vaan hates on him, poor dude, his brother whos a judge is revealed to of killed the king, hes Baschs twin?

oh boy i can go on for like forever, the game has a lot of key points in my opinion, thats probably somewhat 15 percent into the game, i like Ashe, shes actually not that bad, yeah shes been through a great deal, losing the one she loved, almost other things, that and shes probably the hottest insurgent.. sorry freedom fighter that ever lived lol

im sure fran would disagree >_>..

so anyway i power leveled Vaan solo to level 13 before aquiring Penelo and everyone else into my party eventually, just meant i had around 800+ license points to speand which rocks, no idea which character needs what weapon im pretty much sticking with

Fran - Archer, Basch - Sword, Balthier - Gun(weak need to change) Vaan - Sword

planning on switching Fran to Katana when i aquire

im currently up to the Leviathan sky ship, after Ondore betrays you, hes actually a pretty smart guy, he obviously knew that the judges had Ashe held on that ship that went to arrest the party.. so he “betrayed” them but also helped them since he knew Basch is like awesome and he would totally own the Judge..

also, i totally thought that Basch killed the king like everyone else but i think your like meant to and stuff, you dont actually know Basch asides from that brief cutscene at the start, so hearing Basch say hes innocent and is like sorry all the time to Vaan about Reks makes him out to be a good guy, i mean, he sounds like, and seems like he wouldnt do that to the king.

i think deep down he rid himself of the king because he was going to surrender to the Arcadian empire cowardly much lol, still a bad thing to do… poor Basch being hated on because of his twin bro lol

Ashe is lol.. makes me laugh.. Vaan speaks.. DONT INTERUPT, infront of the bad guys

 Ashe is <3

i wasnt sure if i wanted to write about these kinds of things but i found it more intresting then anything else, the girl who wouldnt eat, well basically, earlier on i saw this programme on TV, well the ending of it, it was about a girl who i believe was about 8-9 years old that has never eaten,  anything in her life, its difficult to believe but true, made me feel sorry for her.

Basically from what i understand, the doctors in England tried helping her but were baffled by the whole situation, her mom, and brother went to Austria, and she had this tube thing that feeds her stomach, basically since she was a baby if im not mistaken shes had to have this in order to survive.

from what i understand she stayed in this hospital where the staff, and nurses were trying to find out why she wouldnt eat, but would drink water, obviously without the tube feeding her, she would die, i believe she weighed only 20kgs, im not sure if thats normal for someone of her size, to be honest, anyways.

they did these series of test on her, to see if its a physilogical reason or otherwise, they like used a camera to check down her throat if their was any damage or defects, which they found none, they then assumed by removing the tube she may have no other choice but to eat.

they came to the conclusion that the girl was in her own world, and this tube thing was a part of it, i mean she really didnt want to eat, not that she couldnt, she was apparently fine, she was then diagnosed with some mental illness..

long story short the girl eventually moved onto fluids that could substain her, so she actually had calorie intake, went back to school and survived on just that..

no idea how old the programme, is, it showed her trying foods but not swallowing, obviously this is a big step for the girl, but.. it kinda makes me wonder whenever or not she actually is cured by now?

sucks that they dont make a sequal, tho in reality it probably isnt good for the girl in general or the family to get that much exposure on TV..

well anyway i found it intresting.. thats basically what i saw

Have you ever had one of those days where things just arent going your way, well its a long story but, my internet also died, so i was unable to go online for a while, of course this is all better now.. so um yeah lol

so asides from a few minor things i was helping my parents out and generally being the cool, awesome dude that i am

and having just now, had a ton of email to reply to, which is cool, well not really, i always have a lot of email everyday from friends here.

This is one series ive always had an intrest in, it was out like a year or 2 ago, and was made by Gonzo, the animation, and other things are just awesome, ive been a fan somewhat of this show for a while, watching most of it, when i have had the time.

well yesterday i briefly watched some of the older episodes, about Solty, and Rose trying to get Solty to join her theif group.. they highlighted a simple fact about Roses past, her friend was killed, and on one episode when Rose tried to get Solty to Join her, she saw the man who did it, but couldnt get to him, eventually with the help of her friends, Solty and Roy she does, needless to say after everythings said and done the guy gets his come upance, which is cool.

So Anyway, basically this series, is somewhat based in the future, its not futuristic, but its the story of an event that happened 12 years ago, that affects a man called Roy Revant, he lost his young daughter in the Blast fall, and his wife died beforehand, he took her loss kinda hard… anyway, he meets up with Solty he reminds him of his daughter 12 years later and adopts her, Solty goes by the name Solty Revant, just like Roy.

At first i have to admit, i assumed Solty was Roys real daughter, even if she isnt real, i mean, Solty is what they call a Resemble, shes fully artificial, except for her memorys?.. they dont really explain at the start, but, Resemble technology is used to help people who have lost an arm, or a leg, basically replacements..  you find that a lot of people  have weapons attached to there body, you know criminals.

Watching this series is an absolute most, even if your not that much into anime, its beautiful, and the opening Song Clover, is entertaining to say the least.

My favourite character so far has to be Rose, shes cute, yet firey, shes a theif, but a dang fine looking one too, Solty is cute too, but liking the main girl for every anime isnt at all great yeah lol

She has 3 kids, which she adopted during the past, from an event that happened in the war time, which the crew of the Gekko were involved in before they went rogue..

 Shes awesome in the respect a lot of strange and weird stuff seems to go on with her, shes cute and funny, etc..
