• rachelmanija has finished her excellent series of posts on PTSD: Parts I, II, and III


• She's also started reading Angel Sanctuary! My joy cannot be contained! Also, spoil her and have your brain taken over by Rosiel.


• rilina and yhlee continue to watch Gundam Wing. My joy is still not contained! OMG people watching and getting into my beloved first anime series despite its mecha-ness!


• I'm sure everyone has already seen the post-apocalyptic cities posters for I Am Legend but I wanted to highlight the fact that they have TAIPEI and SEOUL! EEEEEEE! (I love Hong Kong, but I feel HK is featured much more often than Taipei and Seoul! OMG! Taipei! National monument that is only a few blocks away from my apartment!


• I have taken the plunge, put my Netflix account on hold, and started Blockbuster. I blame my sister. On the minus side, Blockbuster only has DVDs 7-10 of GWing. On the plus side.... THEY HAVE DAMO ON DVD!!!!!


• shewhohashope hosts the 5th POC in SF Carnival and focuses on non-Western fantasy, including... WUXIA! (yes, I am a little obsessed right now) I particularly rec meganbmoore's wuxia primer for those of you like me who only know you like swords and flying people and historical costumes and have no idea what to watch outside of two or three things. And it's good for people who have absolutely no idea what wuxia is too! Win-win!

I should actually catch up on book and TV posting but... oh well. Soon.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

[oyceter]

Wait you have not watched Princess Tutu? *big sad eyes*

Avatar makes me laugh and laugh.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

i never heard of princess tutu until she told me about it.

[magicnoire.livejournal.com]

OMG Avatar! I've been watching leaks for so long that I've forgotten where we are on the actual airing schedule!

...wait. Half of my flist are Avatar fans. If there had been a new episode, I would have known.

[oyceter]

Gah! I have been following the TV schedule and then they aired part one of a two-parter and I do not have the next part on Tivo even though two Fridays have gone by and I am hoping Tivo did not miss it.

[magicnoire.livejournal.com]

Oooh, it was "Day of Black Sun", right? I don't know since I broke early like a wimpy thing and watched the leak but do you think there's a chance Nick aired the two-parter back to back? They've done that in the past, though I don't see how Tivo could have missed that.

[oyceter]

Yes! The one where Aang can't sleep. I think I will check out Nick's airing schedule to make sure I didn't miss anything.

[magicnoire.livejournal.com]

Oooh, the one where he can't sleep? "Nightmares and Daydreams"? That's actually not part of the two-parter. :O! "Day of Black Sun" consists of two episodes that follow that one. (I think it might have already aired? Uh oh.)

[oyceter]

Nooo! You're right! They aired and I MISSED IT! WOE!

Sigh. Aheming I shall go...

[magicnoire.livejournal.com]

OH NOOOOO.

[magicnoire.livejournal.com]

True.

And the Black Dagger Brotherhood was also my fault.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]
