X-Files, Ayakashi, and Saint Seiya

Last night was glorious. Amanda's friend was here and brought the first full 7 seasons of X-Files so we had a little X-Files marathon. Watched a total of 5 episodes from the various seasons. So that's 5 hours straight of X-Files? XP Dude.

Man, it brought back a lot of memories. Since I haven't watched that show since it was still airing on TV and all. Some of the episodes we watched I was like "I don't think I've seen this one...oh wait, yes I have." lol As my parents and I were pretty damn obsessed with the show back when it came out so I think I've seen every episode up through season 7 or so. Don't think I saw much after that as I stopped watching when it got really weird. But yeah. Good times. Wonder if we'll watch anymore today.

I finally got around to watching the Bakeneko Arc of Ayakashi. I'll eventually watch the first few Arcs but I gotta admit I really just wanted to see the Medicine Seller and his fabulous-ness. The animation was kinda freaky and well the plot got pretty freaky at points too but I really liked it. The story was really good and the way they did it was so unique. It's a bit of a mind fuck but I love those types of things. The spirit's story at the end was really depressing too. ;_; I felt so bad for her and the cat. So yeah, definitely going to start watching Mononoke now. Hee.

But first I must go watch the next 2 Saint Seiya - Hades Elysion episodes! *_* Yay! Even though the raws have rather bad sound quality. Boo. And I know it'll be like a month before I see them subtitled in english and even then it will be that one poor guy who's rather limited in his ability (but I love him for doing it since he's like the only one that does). Man, why can't one of the fansub groups pick it up. Haven't seen any high quality fansubs for the Hades episodes since the first 4 episodes of Inferno.

I'm lucky, in the Spanish-speaker anime community Saint Seiya is a mytical series and it gets subbed pretty fast. On the other hand, until I'm back home and the course is over I won't be able to download anything. Sniff, sniff.

Yeah, so I've noticed. XP As I found like a million versions of the episodes fansubbed in Spanish on youtube. lol

Hmmm... if you don't mind waiting, I could try and translate the script for you. In June I'll be home, if you're interested, remind me then!

Oooh. Well if the other dude hasn't done the fansubs by then, I'll let you know when you are. ^_^

Heehee. I've watched through episode 5 now. It's great. XP Now I see what's so wonderful about Kusuriuri-san (and boy that's going to take me a while to get used to saying, damn you for not having an actual name XPXP!)
