I just realised that I’ve only watched 2.5 episodes of anime this week. That’s like almost an all-time low record, or maybe it really is.

Anime, Otakism and the Rantings And Ravings of Japanese Popular Culture
I just realised that I’ve only watched 2.5 episodes of anime this week. That’s like almost an all-time low record, or maybe it really is.

I handed in this photoshop assignment a month ago, and I just got it back together with my grade recently. The assignment was a collage, and we had to use original sketches or photos to create it. Back then, I did not have many other photos other than my recent trip to Japan in April on hand, and I didn’t have the time to go about taking new photos too. Hence, I used those images of my trip in the collage, partially because the Japanophile within me desires to.

That’s what’s happening to me now. Ever since school began 7 weeks ago, I’ve been living in my own world revolving around mainly 2D stuff. The mention of the word school brings about the sudden thought of cute high school girls in seifuku flashing into my mind, not that anyone in my school wears anything remotely resembling a seifuku. And what’s studying? Is it some Kaworu-level yaoi activity that transforms GAR men into Shinji-like characters?

For those of you who are still in school, I don’t know how your classes work but for me, I use my laptop for almost all, if not all my classes. Who needs textbooks when the resources are uploaded online and there’s Google? Anyway, that’s not the point here.

Before I begin on some of the reactions my classmates have, I’ll let you have some background knowledge about my class. I’m in an IT-related course and there are a total of 21 students, 19 guys and 2 girls. The balance totally sucks and I have to go through another 2 more years of this. Out of the 19 guys, there are only 1 or 2 besides me who are higher-leveled appreciators of Japanese animation artforms. The rest either only watch stuff such as Bleach and DGrayMan, or think that Bleach is Hentai and Naruto is buttsecks. The girls don’t watch anime, I think.
Now that you know what the hell’s going on in my class, let’s begin with some of the reactions.

Look at what I spotted in one of the computer labs in my school.
Pardon the pathetic 2 megapixels quality. I’m not a camwhore who brings my camera everywhere I go
Awesome B2-sized poster. On first sight, I was thinking that it was something along the lines of a bootleg, or self printed. However, when I inspected it in close range, I was surprised that it was actually an official Japanese poster. I wonder who would have put up such a poster. Also, out of everyone in my class, it appears that only I took notice of the poster, despite it being placed prominently at the front of the lab. This says a lot about the people in my class who are into anime.
Man, I so want this ゲド戦記 poster. If only I could take it down and bring it home. Its literally screaming out to me to do so.
I am currently in Japan, Chiba, and the god damn hotel does not have Internet access. And now here I am, at Chiba Institute of Science, having internet access for 5 mins. Whee!
I won’t be updating till Friday night,mainly because this is test week,and I haven’t been paying attention during lessons. So i guess I have to mug even harder(not that I’m even doing that). Ganbatte to all those out there having their tests ^^
Also, I can’t seem to think of something to blog about XP
The reason why I was away for close to 4 days.Look below. (This has no relation to anime)

Damn,I want A&W in Singapore.

After 3 weeks in Poly,I have mixed around with quite a number of people in my class,and also the people in Japanese Class.Seems like many people have the hobby of watching anime,but no one has the similar hobby as me of collecting figurines.I wonder why?
