Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping, lately, and I had an eventful week and a half or so. Tomorrow I’ll no longer be restricted in travel distance by our pathetic Daytonian transit system, the strength of my feet, or my horrifically disproportionately healthy legs, too since I finally found a car in my price range (cheap) that runs smooth and surprisingly, doesn’t look like total scheiss. Coincidentally, it’s also red, which means it goes well with the Gurren-Dan sticker Christina got me last year. Maybe I’ll call it… Auto-Gurren.

Or not.

At any rate, I’m overdue for another burst of significant updates thanks to work and uh, Bangai-O, though hopefully soon I can turn that buggery around too. It occurs to me my last few reviews have been missing my awesome rating system, so I’ll fix that later this evening. Maybe. It’s not like it’s essential or anything.

GaoGaiGar v2 is out in stores, those magnificent bastards snuck it into stores a couple weeks ago with little brouhaha. It’s the same low, low, price of 23.99 that the first half of the series was, so need I remind you that said series carries my hearty seal of approval*? Or if you don’t mind being a little lost, the series really hits its stride in volume 2 anyway. Rewatching it, I hate to admit, makes me painfully aware of its pacing problems- the first DVD collection ends at about the same time that the show is only beginning its wide turn from ‘Monster of the Week’ to ‘Sci-Fi Thriller.’ (Those who pay attention to minor details and characters during the ‘grind’ episodes, though, will be rewarded with more than a few “OH! That guy did…!” moments later.)

NiGHTS is creepy. [TRANSMISSION ENDS]
