Vacation in progress...

Alright then... some quick updates...

Forza Horizon 2 - Love this game. Wish it came out instead of Forza 5. So much more fun and has such a good flow about it. I think I'm 4 or 5 championships away from being in the Horizon Finale is its being called and I have fallen in love with this open world driving game.

Dragonball Xenoverse - Did not play it during my vacation... Not that its bad but WoW and Forza have been occupying all my free game time.

Hardline - Did get some more time with this playing with my buds. Game is getting better but they have to fix the flaws... the spawn system is HORRID! Its like its completely random but makes sure you're in an enemy line of sight before it spawns you and vice versa. I've been in a couple games where I was camping a spot and in my view it spawns like 3 guys in a row. I mow them all down and wait for more but it just felt wrong. They didn't have a chance.

World of Warcraft - I am trying desperately to get to 100 before this week finishes so I can at least say I've got there but I may not have the time. Granted I've got 2 days to go but I can't just sit in front of the computer all day or at least I'm trying not to.

In other news....

JEREMY CLARKSON IS SACKED!
Apparently they will not be renewing his contract and Top Gear for this season is I guess finished. What that means for Richard and James I dunno but it sure wont be the same without them. I can't watch the US version... I just can't. I tried... Tanner is cool and Rutledge is at least funny but that other guy who looks like a shorter Tony Danza is just annoying.

Anime Updates for me...

Your Lie in April - Finished this in both print form and in show form. I'll be honest. I nearly cried at the end, which doesn't really happen with anime. I won't spoil it for those who may read this... not that there's that many but this is probably my favorite show this season.

Cross Ange - This show is about to end. One more to go and it'll all be over. Have to say that I liked it more than I thought I would... The plot got more complicated over time and its got shounen written all over it with how the main enemy is nearly invincible.

Your Lie in April episode 2

This show has just recently piqued my interest. I was reading the manga a while back but seems like its not translated as fast as I'd liked and I was wondering what kind of show it would make.... The answer is? A good one. The pacing is good, you feel bad for the MC as more of his past trauma is shown... You also get a good look at the love interest here... Shes more or less everything that Arima is not. Yin to his Yang so to speak.

Synopsis...
The gang (Arima, Tsubaki and Watari) head to Kaori's Violin Competition. Arima is caught off guard because Tsubaki lied about where they were going... she knows about his phobia and didn't tell him on purpose, she knew he wouldnt have come. When Kaori comes up she kills the performance but in her own way... Bad for the competition but awesome thing to witness. Seems Arima falls in love with her after that performance but cant tell her because she like Watari. Love can be so complicated. Watari, being the playboy he is, tells Arima that hes skipping practice to spend time with another girl. On the way home, Arima runs into Kaori and instead of telling her about Watari he makes up an excuse to BS her not to go check on Watari... What a wing man... She appoints Arima as his replacement and thats how it ends.

Some Stuff I Watched...

Didn't post for a little while but that don't mean I didn't watch anything as I'm always watching something. If you want to know what I'm watching on Crunchyroll you can always find that out on my twitter feed @blackhawksnip3r. It's a pretty neat little function that whenever I watch something it posts it on twitter. Helpful sometimes when even I don't remember what I watched. So, as twitter says... this is what I've watched recently...

Trinity Seven Episode 1

CROSS ANGE Rondo of Angel and Dragon Episode 2

Sword Art Online Episode 14.5 (It's a recap episode so... thats why its .5)

Your Lie in April Episode 1

I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying Episode 2

Chaika - The Coffin Princess - Avenging Battle Episode 1 (I didn't get to finish this tho)

-=My Thoughts=-

So a few new series starting and I'm gonna have to say that Trinity Seven shows the most promise with Your Lie in April coming in a close second. There is actually some more episode 1's that I need to watch but have yet to do so... God I wish there was just more hours in the day. SAO was just a recap and I'm not mad because I think that like season 1 it is about to shift in another direction. The  I Can't Understand What My Husband is Saying is only small episodes like 3 minutes. Just a funny look at an a normal Wife dealing with an Otaku husband. Chaika seems to pick up where season 1 left off or a little after that. I need to go back and watch the rest. CROSS ANGE is getting weirder as it goes on... The MC is almost raped by her superior... crazy stuff but I'll continue watching because someone has to... :)

I'm really excited about Trinity Seven. I read a good deal of the manga that was available to me and it's a pretty interesting story and I like the characters and how they are presented and developed.
