Pandora Hearts

Yes, Pandora Hearts! The manga shares a similar art style as FMA, although less detail. But the anime suck... The characters look hideous most of the time. Gilbert's eyes are to slim!! Their clothes are out of shape!! T.T

Thank god, at least they have Fukuyama Jun as Vincent, who makes everything more enjoyable.

Message of Regret - Ballad Ver

This song is lovely.


The ballad version of Regret Message by Kagamine Rin.

The song itself is sad enough already, the soft, calming, and slow version of it makes it even more tearful...

Do give it a try~

Brotherhood

FMA Brotherhood 26 was awesome. Especially the part where Ed forced his way to tell Al (body) to wait for him. :3

Go Ed Go Ed~~

I've been wanting to comment about this for a long time but for various reasons it was delayed. Hologram is decent, but not enough to be played on my Hikaru repetitively.

But the animation scene *points at the image above*, especially this one, is awesome. I really like Lin. He may seem carefree and laid back, he's actually quite deep... Love it when the 2 dropped down behind him~

Let It Out was better than Hologram. Still, I find that it lacks something. As if the music sounds hollow (to me, no offence to others). Sure, the music is pleasant and the ED animation is just so peaceful that they complement each other, no complaint about that. xD

Though, the new ED owned these 2 songs!! Will make a post about that some time later!

Tsubasa - It's Not The End

*gasp*

I started following Tsubasa before form 3, and it's finally coming to an end! I just can't believe it, more than 3 of torturing and mind-wrecking!! T.T

We started off with emo-Syaoran looking at his photo of him with his Clone/Father and Clone of Girlfriend/Mother. T.T
Baw.
They're gone from the photo. Syaoran looks so lonely... T.T

And then, the princess had a dream. Some bad dream obviously.

ひぐらしのなく頃に

寒蝉鸣泣之时

OMG.

This series is a masterpiece.

I'm totally in love.

The anime's character design sucks, but the manga, despite drawn by various mangaka, is beyond acceptable and thrilling at the gory part.

Which means, it passed my exam!!

The story is simply fantastic.

The gory murders, thrilling mysteries, and tragic ending for each characters are strong contrast to the fun-filled school life and peaceful village.


I'm lovin' it.

Due to Frederica Bernkastel, I decided to check Higurashi from Wiki to understand her more since she's from Higurashi and turns up in Umineko.

Turns out that, Higurashi is intriguing. And so, I rent the whole stack of manga from HQ. And, spent some nights getting hard to sleep after reading it.

Fabulous as it is, it doesn't make a good bedtime story.

Cause I was haunted by the mysteries, tragedies, and murders when I close my eyes.

-The guys that are lonely when they are children grow up to be evil, then when they are taking their last breath, they say sorry-

Umineko - Delicious

I must say, the Umineko fans are really talented to have draw so many gorgeous fanarts.

I'm not into Battler&Beato pairing, but this is truly beautiful. And yeah, I abandoned my already-done-header and made a new one out of this lovely art. (Yeah yeah. I know my header is no where near pretty...)

This is AWESOME!
Lelouch--> Battler
C.C--> Beatrice
Nunually--> Ange
Pizza--> Smoke Pipe!!
e.p.i.c.

Cute!!
Umineko in Toradora style!! I guess it must be the BattlerxLambda worshippers who did this...

-
Not to sure whether it's fanart or official, but I'm positive that Ryukishi07 did not draw this, cause his art style is totally different.

This, I think is an official one... Though I also have no idea where it came from... *Yes, I know I'm just too lazy to check*
I love the pastel look given to both arts above~~ x3

So colourful~~ The colours are soft and pretty~ The art style is so cute!!! (Though, Beato doesn't look like herself, at all)

Now this is a gorgeous art of Ange and the Stakes of Purgatory, the butterflies are so fairy-tale-sih!!

Chibis!!!
So Kawaii!!!
ChibisxTarrot!! omg this is even cuter!!

This, is just too cute to be describe with words. >.< Sketch of Battler with Ange!! Lovely!!

More sketches!!

More Lambda and Bern~

A pleasant art of Dlanor. Sketchy and water colour-ish.

The Eiserne Jungfrau!
Nvm the outfit if you're the reserved type. But the colours and tones are damn pretty.

Another fantasy-like piece of art...

Seriously. An amazing series with so many gorgeous arts for me to drool over~~
