I guess I should change the look of my journal because I don't fancy
Rei, or Max, or Beyblade itself anymore. What's up? Well, during the
time I have not posted, nine billion two hundred forty five million six
hundred twenty nine thousand and eight hundred fifty six things
happened. (That's 9,245,629,856) Let's start from the beginning, =D
During October, I have gotten more interested into HOCKEY!! Watching them fight, shove, push, injure, skate, take penalties, run into goalies, score, dive, fall, win, get emotional, get abusive, smash, reason, yell, argue, advise, and play hockey was extremely exciting. And the best position in hockey is goaltending (minus the people running into goalies, seen that happen 248932874289448482 times)
The canucks started out normally, then boosted into a long winning streak (after losing 0-6 to Minnesota, but beating them 5-2 afterwards) Hearing all of Minnesota, Calgary, and Colorado boo Bertuzzi, Cloutier getting his first concussion, minor league players coming in for the injured making huge mistakes and getting themselves bashed, a Flames player falling on his butt, and the goalie punching everybody, I have seen it all.
Anyway, it was quite exciting, disappointment and pride both came out equally in my side, =D What's next? Soldat. In that game, during October, I have been lagging a lot, then in the end I have decided to...GET A NEW GOD DAMNED COMPUTER Yet it was not that easy. Being the leader of this clan had it's up and downs, and other things came in the way. Currently, my favourite weapons (that I can use) are Ruger, Desert Eagles, HK MP5, Steyr AUG, and Minimi, as for secondaries...all of them, but mostly the USSOCOM.
What was next then? What was NEXT?!?! Well, I'm sure you all have heard my latest (and hopefully longer than my 1-week naruto obsession craze) obsession. It's in my DP, the forums, and I'm making a desk clock of it at school. What is it? Battle B Daman.
I know, I've spoken of this before on this journal, but right now is when I TRULY feel as a good fan of such a show, even if it's aimed at Elementary School kids...and somehow has more violence than all three seasons of Beyblade put together...minus the blood.
But why now? Why not before? Because I found all of the first season episodes of it online. I heard of one episode that I was eager to watch, but now that I have watched all of Bdaman, I will now conclude similarities of it and my former (and very HUGE) obsession, beyblade.
Well, let's start with the obvious ones...they're from the same company, d-rights. D-Rights seems to have many kiddy Animes (lol), ranging from Bdaman's predesessor, Bomberman something, and other Animes I barely heard of, with it's superb Animation. Actually, in beyblade, V force's Animation is better than that of G Rev's, why? Some of the episodes in G Rev, the animation was sloppy, for example, episode 10. Rei and Takao were, well distorted and unrealistic looking, in harsher words, ugly.
So V-force didn't seem to have that, and that what made its Animation better. Battle B Daman has adapted from that, and sometimes looks even better.
The storyline, well, the main difference from the storylines is that they are in fact VERY different, but still similar in some ways. There's a tournament in the beginning, but this tournament was different, it had more variety, and dangerous parts too. (When Gray and Yamato faced off, they had to run on a treadmill, slip and you back into SPIKES!!!) The storyline AFTER the tournament? Different, extremely different. In beyblade, it basically leads into a match at the end (In G Rev), but in B Daman, personally, was a lot more dramatic.
In Beyblade, the storyline after it, had to do with...KAI WANTING TO VERSE TAKAO, Kai lost to brooklyn and couldn't, switched sides for revenge, and becomes really mopey about it. Yeah, interesting. In battle B daman, many things happen, during a part of the 1st saga, the Super 5 Tournament with the supposedly "really" nice boss guy, who betrayed them at the latter storyline (His name is Cain), he's evil, insane evil, like brooklyn, but for completely different reasons. You know what's funny? Gray, who is like Kai, goes against Cain, after losing first before. Isn't that FUNNY?
Enjyu, the main antagonist of the first saga, is declared to be like Yuriy. He tries to stop the evils of the 2nd plot, but ends up within the 2nd evilness too. So, instead of being in a coma for 10 episodes, he was brainwashed and was helping the evil "Neo Shadow Alliance". Bull falls into the Kenny category, since he becomes the mechanic (and plays a less important role in the end), now, off to my favourite part.
Wen and Li, the two Yong Fa brothers with apparently no parents (Unless their father is a panda or some old dude, but I think he's just the advisor guy like Armada is, who think is a lot like Jin, but a lot funnier.) You know, that'd actually make sense, I mean, the brothers are kinda strange in a way. Li has animal eyes, not human eyes, thus one of the parents must be either a hybrid, an animal, or also some human with bug eyes, while the other must look normal, where Wen comes in. But the actual part, ^^;;;
I'm not exactly clear what exactly HAPPENED here, because the episodes I saw were in Korean. But what I know of is, Li bumped into Enjyu, who needed his help to defeat the neo Shadow Alliance, for some reason, Li had to betray Wen just to do that, but what's funny is when Li actually goes there, he is zapped (looks painful) and becomes brainwashed, in which Enjyu would become later. So was all that sadness and betrayal in vain? What the hell did Enjyu want Li to do? All those events changed Wen's attitude a bit, who joined with the main group (And replaced Bull afterwards, lol) so 5 episodes later he can get Li back.
The most logical explanation is, that Li had to not be suspicious, since they knew both Li and Wen together were nearly indestructible, if only one brother comes, it would make more sense, and if Li let them use him, it would make Enjyu seem to actually be on their side if he was starting to not be trusted, yet in the end, Enjyu fails, Li sacrficed all that in vain, and now their fate can only be saved by Yamato and the others.
Which creates a very ironic, sad, and sadistic situation there. Well, we'll see when I see the English episodes...in about 5 weeks, lol.
Or, the other reason is that the writers thought it was getting boring so they did that, so Wen and Li can have a faceoff, to see who is better, and they wanted them to have some part and liked Wen better than Li and Enjyu combined, XD What was clever about that was when Li and Wen actually faced off, in the end it didn't really show who was the stronger and more skilled brother. (They should have done that with Rei and Max), a strong reason why Battle B Daman is well written, and much better written than Beyblade will ever be.
Another reason is the flashbacks. They show almost everybody who had some sort of main part in the show a flashback, not Bull though. In the beginning of the show itself, it showed Yamato has a young fellow, than it showed Gray and his sister as younger kids, showed Enjyu his sad past for a kid, showed Cain and his friend in flashbacks before he was evil, after than, showed Terry when he was young and training (like a ninja, lol), and showed Wen and Li in flashbacks as well. Well, to be in truth, the only younger kids than they are that looked good was Enjyu and Wen. Why? because if they were younger than THAT, they'd have bigger eyes and stuff, and smaller bodies, it seemed a bit too...smallish and biggist eyes to me...
But I can say one thing, Battle B Daman is definitely sappier than Beyblade, even if it's more violent than beyblade, which is ironic. In the end, nobody was really evil...
After that rant, you should know who my favourite character is by now, >><<>><<
Now for life itself, in Soldat, I got a friend and a bunch of other friends in my clan, if I wasn't talking to the BIFF or school friends, I'd be talking to them, What was strange that each one of my group of friends are completely different. School friends aren't Yaoi-lovers, they're funny in the way of randomness and stuff like that, the BIFF ARE yaoi-lovers, and are the middle me, can be interested in all sides of me. And finally, the clan buddies are the more boyish me, which is why I have so many different kinds of friends...O.o
My school friends and I plan to make a movie, I have no part in it, except for the fact that I am the cameraman. I have a (very old) camcorder, and they don't. It's supposed to take place in the fog, and lately it has been very foggy here. I like my position, =P
My dad recently got out of the hospital, but we bought 128 bucks worth of medicene, he's fine though, which makes me happy, and now we can have fine cooked meals and get to go to places because of my dad, and I can enjoy hockey fully now.
Ah yes, that time of the year is coming. Christmas, my birthday, 3 other birthdays, 4 BIFF days, new years, and 5 thousand ants dying in the snow, lol. Christmas is my favourite month, my busiest month, and arguably my happiest month. Whatever happens soon will happen...
That's all for now, and if you don't know who my favourite character is yet, check the forum. I hate French! Je deteste francais!
