It Really Bothers Me.

Sometimes I notice things that are useless and irrelevant. Not so much when I watch anime but it happens anyway. Though sometimes too small to be noted as an inconsistent, I thought I would point one out anyway.

The candy either simply appears, gets there within a short frame of time, or I'm just thinking too much.

178 x 155 pixels

178 pixels across and 155 pixels down. Enticement to vector, yes. Very much yes.


(If you don't see it, just click on the image. This is because it is all in black lines and the background in transparent, effectively camouflaging it completely.)

3000 x 2531 pixels. Not epicly well done but I like the end result anyway. Time to completion, less than 3 hours. Done in flash. I need to learn to vector with illustrator dammit.

Vectoring Images

to be honest, if there was some sort of magical way to vector images easily, i would do it. but so far, i haven't found anything reliable that can do that as of yet. so i though, why not i learn it myself? asking a few people i know here and there and voila, i began to vector my first image ever.

of course, there are a number of images i wanted to vector. but given that this is my first time, i wanted a to vector something i truly desired. unfortunately the resolution of that particular picture is too small for an amateur like me to handle. so i headed for what is second best.



of course i don't intend to vector the entire image but merely mio-chan there in the middle. eventually i may or may not vector mugi and yui though it is very likely that i would.

through much time and guesswork, i finally finished vectoring mio-chan.



this is mio-chan of K-On! version 0.1a.

so far, the only other version is 0.1b though the only change is that the hair reflection has no black border so i don't see the point of uploading it. after all, this image is pretty large.

the image is 3800 x 4065 pixels with 32 bit depth. since i was vectoring it, it is only common to super-size it this much, right?

personally i think it could have been better. i'm a little disappointed that i can't put in the blush on her face without making her look retarded. nevertheless, i find this piece of work satisfying for me.

i wouldn't know why you would want to but you can feel free to download and use the image. though please remember to credit me.

EDIT: in the twenty minutes where i was reviewing my vectored images, i realized that the white gap in the lower right hand side of her hair was supposed to be transparent. though i have corrected it in my laptop, the image above remains wrong. if you wish to use it, you may want to correct that error first.

Suzumiya Haruhi 2009 Download

as you all may have known by now, i uploaded the first episode. now i'm uploading what i have again but this time it is all done by chihiro subs. why? because i like them and i like my anime to be from the same subbers to make my life more standard. having a different subber for each episode is a real turn off for me.

why choose deposit files you say? because i used to live in an apartment near my campus where they block access to certain websites such as megaupload, rapidshare, and so on. the only thing they seem not to block is deposit files. so yes, i'm being a little biased for them. and no, i will not mirror this anywhere else. i know its a little slow but it also makes sure that those who share internet connections will not leech too much.

from what i can see, the only people who suffer are individuals who own their own internet access.

this post will be updated whenever i feel like it after i get more episodes. i am not affiliated with chihiro subs. i am merely uploading their work.

*update 5 July 2009
suzumiya haruhi season 2 episode 4 is now ready for download. go over to chihiro fansubs website to read what they have to say about this release. there might just be something there that may peak you interest. ;)

Mustang's Opponent Cheated in Chess

as you all would have known by now, the thirteenth episode of Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood is out. while i can say it is a nice episode as always, there is a part of the story where Roy Mustang is seen playing chess.

this, of course is normal. up to the point where you notice that Roy has already captured to of both his opponents bishop and yet there is an extra one that remains on the board.







while it can be argued that in the second image, Roy has captured the bishop in the first image, the third one shows that it is obviously still there.

those who have some knowledge on chess would know that this is wrong. what is more is the fact that the opponent lost even with this extra advantage.

Haruhi New Episode

for those of you out there who watch suzumiya haruhi, i'm sure you all have known that there may or may not be a new season. for those of you who are somewhat obsessive with this would have known by now that there is a new episode mixed with the what seems to be the re-airing of the first season.

i'm not going to speak much on this. Sankaku Complex has a very good post for this already. it can be found here.

for those who want to watch the episode, i can't help you because i don't know how. however, if you would like to watch the ending credits which is (obviously) different fomr the first season, head over to youtube on this link.

i have also ripped the new ending song from the youtube video link given. heck, i even ripped the video for you guys to download if you don't want to view it from youtube.

sorry i forgot to post about this. i went for the second day last year. wasted about rm70 on posters and original artworks. unfortunately, i didn't take much picutres. however, you may find some pictures here and here. warning though, it is quite image heavy.

still reading? awesome. here is a picture of Lelouch that my friend cosplayed:


now now. i know he is not tall enough. but at least he is not an alien.

4chan

a little more than a week ago, i discovered 4chan, the largest image board there is. you can imagine my delight as i condensed my blood with anime wallpapers but the worse has yet to come.



you see ladies and gentlemen, when you find something new, you tend to have an extended interest in it. eventually i tried the other links and fell in love with regular and creepy wallpapers as well. not only that, but they also happen to have funny pictures as well.

i could almost feel my soul being lifted into a higher realm, a form of nirvana if you may. its as if i have found a legal way to take drugs.

however, everything has its price to pay. images take up space. i was actually surprised to find out how much space i have in wallpapers alone. and this is only a week. i shudder to think what will happen if i continue on this image spree.

current status:
anime related wallpapers: 2001
disk space taken: 1.05GB

non-anime related images: 609
disk space taken: 333MB

total images: 2610
total disk space taken: 1.37GB

lets see what happens in a week shall we?

Proof Anime Girls are Aliens

you know when you watch anime, the girls (and guys) are usually out of proportion? this is because they are aliens! what other proof do you need? just think about it. how can they cram their intestines in such a small space? this might just proof that aliens are making animes based on their own anatomy..


if they were aliens, they might have either smaller intestines or no intestines at all! this clearly proves that anime characters are all aliens.


[yes, i know there is not enough space to fit a stomach. stop looking already.]

and if that is not enough, how about the fact that anime characters don't seem to die after an explosion or fall off a tall building? or the fact that an explosion only affects them when it is caused by the main villain?

and it does not stop there. notice how many female anime character have Huge eyes? if it were that huge, how can their brain fit? or is it a fact that their alien brains are tiny but extremely powerful? and why are most male characters having tiny eyes? are the male species of the aliens having bigger brains of equal power?

not to mention, some characters can have large eyes, but when fighting enemies, their eyes turn to the sizes of slit. morphing brain perhaps?

hence, i offer you Cold Hard Proof that anime characters are aliens:



Anime = Alien productions.
