| 6:02pm | Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok Episode 11 Commentary | | | | The episodes are officially in the phase of “follow the characters from day to day without worrying about a plot right now”, but this episode did give a good look at Frey, and his interactions with others. He only had trouble in school because he was competing at every corner. If he weren’t... |
| 12:15pm | Inkscape Web Comic Tutorial: More of Bordering an Image | | | | Although I’ve already covered a nice method of bordering an image (which can probably use improving), I don’t actually use that method. While it gives a lot of flexability and freedom, it takes a bit of work to set up. Instead, I use a simple method that’s pretty quick to do, but... |
| 3:48am | Haibane-Renmei: Episode 7 Commentary | | | | Things are piecing together slowly. The pieces to Reki’s past have mostly come together, although there’s still mystery behind Hyohko’s part in Reki’s running away. The amount of closeness one can feel to the characters after six and seven episodes amazes me. The total time... |
| 8:47pm | Debutante Detective Corps Episode 1 Commentary | | | | For obvious reasons, sometimes when I buy DVDs from ADV Films, they could include an extra DVD, a volume one DVD. It’s obvious that they want to entice me to buy a series I might not have otherwise known about. I’ve received three DVDs this way: two volume one DVDs for Ghost Stories, which... |
| 5:58pm | Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok Episode 10 Commentary | | | | Narugami is always struggling to earn enough money to get by, yet Frey and Heimdall get buy with no difficulties portrayed. Fray does do bargain shopping, but then he orders a lot from specialty shops which are probably much more expensive than buying similar items from a grocery store. Does he simply... |
| 5:57pm | Testing | | | | This is a test post. Please ignore it. |
| 3:37am | Haibane-Renmei: Episode 6 Commentary | | | | There’s a graveyard on the way to the council’s temple. Is this a graveyard for humans, or for haibane who never left? This DVD release’s episode previews being in the extra materials section has been the best thing for me. Episodes are much less predictable before seeing them, as... | | |
| 5:54pm | Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok Episode 9 Commentary | | | | With Frey spending so much time with Heimdall, maybe Heimdall will lighten up a little. Their time together reminds me of Prince Zuko and his uncle Iroh in Avatar: The Last Airbender, a duo of a bad guy and a good guy, where the good guy knows the bad guy can be good if only given the right direction.... |
| 3:18am | Haibane-Renmei: Episode 5 Commentary | | | | Rakka has reached a point where she is both curious about what lies outside the town walls and where she is content with the life before her in Old Home and in town. Sumika is an example of finding joy, and ones life, ones future, within the walled community. If Nemu has to push a cart full of books... |
| 5:51pm | Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok Episode 8 Commentary | | | | Mayura’s not the only one who’d been wondering about the connection between Loki and Yamino, but it was suprise to find out Yamino was Loki’s son all along. The older Loki doesn’t look old enough to be a father, and what’s with him and Freya if Loki’s already a father... |
| 3:11pm | Haibane-Renmei: Episode 4 Commentary | | | | Having watched the third episode in Japanese now, I’m getting used to the Japanese voices. I like both the English and Japanese voices, but I prefer the English voices. If I started out watching the first episode in Japanese before English, would I prefer the Japanese voices? I think I find... |
| 12:40pm | Inkscape Web Comic Tutorial: The Thought Balloon | | | | One of the reasons I like creating a thought balloon in Inkscape–as opposed to using a comic creator software with pre-designed template balloons–is that each balloon can be tailored to the background behind it and the scene it’s a part of. (This is true also for exclamation balloons,... |
| 11:09am | Inkscape Web Comic Tutorial: Bordering an Image | | | | There are a few ways to do borders around comic panels in Inkscape. This tutorial looks at placing a border around a image. More goes into a page of panels, but knowing how to handle a single panel alone will be required before putting a whole page together. First things first, find an image to use.... |
| 3:58am | Inkscape Web Comic Tutorial: The Speech Balloon | | | | This is the first in a series of tutorials on using the free vector image editing software, Inkscape to make comics. This series of comics will be specifically for use in making a comic out of anime screenshots, but the same information can be applied to photograph comics and hand- or computer-drawn... | | |
