Kalafina - Oblivious

I am now 21. Go me. Some point need to update the ol' ID card so it'll make a note that I am of the age to drink. I'll just be going to Red Robin on Sunday to celebrate, though the person who wanted to get me "plastered" will not be joining us.

Saw Kara no Kyoukai. It was alright, though I heard the first chapter was never the strongest, so it'll take a couple more to see if it'll dethrone Kanon. Animation alone will probably put it up into consideration. May have already found "best fight scene" for my 2008 review.

Started collecting the xxxHolic anime. I heard good things and bad things, though I still want to see it animated in some form. Someone thought it was like a darker Mushishi, which is already awesome.
Note: Bad things mostly referred to removal of the overall story in consideration of a more episodic format, hence the comparison to Mushishi. Which was probably done so it didn't connect with Tsubasa Chronicle on its particular side. I'll collect the manga for that, thank you.

However, I will not be collecting the Shana novels, since I heard that they indeed did not do a good job, to the point where the JAPANESE were mocking it (Found a Japanese person that collects translated novels, games, visual novels, etc. He even made a note of the grammar mistakes in Ever 17.)

Oh, school ended, by the way. Now I can sleep and work on CoT without worry.
