Update whaaaaat?!

I'm fairly certain you were expecting some sort of official DEAD SITE IS DEAD post, but as it turns out I've finally decided to make a post explaining what my plans are for getting the site back up into a semi-working order. Although this site is very much still dead in a way, I plan on getting back into writing again, these may be reviews, might just be short episodic reactions, or maybe the odd AMV here and there and anything I really...

Hearthstone - First Time Getting Legend

Hello, long time no post. Hearthstone is one of the few games I play casually these days, and I finally decided to get legend ranking this month. I've been close a few times, but I never committed enough games to get it. Theoretically, as long as you can get to rank 5 and maintain a win rate over 50% you can get it; the higher your win rate, the lower the number of games you have to grind to get there. I was lazy and didn't track...

Tokyo Ghoul First Impression: A Living Nightmare

Ghouls; a merciless species of monsters that devour humans while masking their identity as they walk among clueless citizens in broad daylight. There is but one aspect of the Ghouls that differentiate them from your average everyday person, their inability to consume anything other than human flesh. Tokyo Ghoul is an ominous dark horror fantasy as we follow ordinary college student Ken Kaneki. Kaneki is introduced as a total bookworm,...

Mekaku City Actors Review 7/10

Mekaku City Actors does an exceptional job of introducing a wide range of likable characters that weave an interesting and unique story that is sure to grip your attention as mysteries unfold. A key aspect of the show is how it will excite your visual senses among the bright vibrant colours and background settings. Mekaku City Actors is an offbeat story about a complex timeline of supernatural events that brings the lives of 10 characters...

Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin - Brief Final Thoughts

I haven't written anything in a long time so I thought I'd do so for the only spring 2014 anime that I followed this past season. There will probably be some spoilers if you want to proceed. Nanana is a light novel adaption in the noitaminA timeslot for one cour so it only had 11 episodes. After watching the first few episodes, I thought it had the potential for a decent story. Many weeks later, I was severely underwhelmed. There exists different...

Black Bullet: 01-02 First Impression - Everyone gets a loli!

Black Bullet was one of the few shows I put on my "must watch" list for the 2014 spring season, and while it's definitely not the next big hit out there like previous shows, Black Bullet is definitely one of the better shows as of late. The plot isn't all that interesting but it's something like the Attack on Titan setting, but filled with loli and a typical independent "high school" lifestyle with monsters and whatnot. Humanity...

Conception 2: Children of the Seven Stars

Conception 2 is a Dungeon Crawler RPG with a unique twist on party creation/management that involves creating "Star Children" with the games 7 heroines. These Star Children are similar to the monster creation in Shin Megami Tensai games, as they are characters of different classes and abilities that will aid you in your labyrinth battles. Outside of the Labyrinths, you can chat with the heroines, visit training grounds, create Star Children,...

STRIFE: The Next Generation of MOBA First Impressions

STRIFE is a new Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) that is both fun and and easy to get into whether you have played other MOBA's or not. Like most MOBA's you choose a character, hop into one of three lanes (or go jungle) and kill NPC minions for gold until you are strong enough to take out a bunch of towers on your way to blow up the enemy base to win the game. You fight alongside 4 others as you battle 5v5 where killing enemy players...
