Pointless whining!

[thistlechaser]

Fullmetal Alchemist airs on Saturdays in Japan. By Sunday afternoon, we can download the translated ep.

Why the heck is TeniPuri fifteen eps behind? I don't want to start a new series! I want more now now now! Whine, whine.

In semi-less whining news, I'm somewhat amused by work. The last few years, they gave us fruitcakes for the holiday. Yes, fruitcakes. I'm not sure if that's more funny or sad. However, this year we got... nothing. Not one penny of a bonus, and not even a fruitcake. I'm not sure if getting nothing is better or worse than getting a fruitcake...

You don't get to whine! :p I've been waiting for a steady supply of new episodes for way too long, and the recent few raw episodes I've watched don't count either.

Seriously though, it's annoying because there's only one group subbing it, so we can only rely on them. ~cries~

I've never had fruitcake before. It doesn't sound that bad though...

Yeah, you get more whining-rights than me! :) About how long does it take for them to get new eps finished and out?

Seriously though, it's annoying because there's only one group subbing it, so we can only rely on them.

That seems rather odd. I wonder why no other groups jump in and do the later ones?

...and the recent few raw episodes I've watched don't count either.

Though I wanted to wait and watch them translated, I gave in and downloaded one raw one (113). Unfortunately, the timing of the sound is totally off, so characters are saying each others' lines, so it's mostly unwatchable...

I've never had fruitcake before. It doesn't sound that bad though...

Honestly, I'm not really sure if it's bad or not! I think I might have had some as a kid, but I really don't recall. I just know it's a sort of running joke that everyone hates it.

I don't know why other groups aren't subbing it either. It's certainly popular enough. A-O is really inconsistent with putting out new subbed episodes. Sometimes they'll put out a few episodes within a few days time, and other times we'll wait forever for one episode. If you look at their release schedule at animesuki, you can see the irregularity. I downloaded ep 98 on Dec 2, so I'm dying here.

Yeah, Saiyaman's raws are not the best in quality. If it's not a problem with sound, the image will be horrible. ~sigh~ Look what this series has forced us to put up with. :D

Eek! Since December 2nd! Aie...

Look what this series has forced us to put up with.

At least the wait should hopefully be worth it! Woo! And from what little I've seen so far, this fandom has some pretty good fanfics out there. They're not as good as seeing new eps, but they keep me from molesting random Asian guys. ;)

but they keep me from molesting random Asian guys

~laughs~ Little do they know that they need to watch out for predatory anime fangirls. ^^

I think it's a little better for me than you, actually, because although I'm still dying for new TeniPuri eps, I don't really have too much free time to be waiting impatiently for it. Yeah, I know, having no free time still doesn't keep me from going through the withdrawal symptoms. ^^ I'm watching way too many series than I can handle right now, and someone just pimped another series to me that I'd seen a few episodes of but had stopped a while back even though everyone else is watching it, and now there's like 60+ episodes to catch up with. I would love to just be able to spend an entire day browsing for fic for leisurely reading, but recently it seems that I read fic in tiny spurts, and only when I have a spare moment or if it looks relatively short. Sadly, most of it is on LJ too, because it's convenient. I wish I could just get like one month of complete free time to do whatever I want, and to catch up.

Um...and I have really babbled on long enough already. XD

I wish I could just get like one month of complete free time to do whatever I want, and to catch up.

Hee, a whole month of nothing to do but watch anime. Oh, that'd be nice! If only I were rich... :)

I do nearly all of my fanfic reading from work, since I have so much time to kill there (shhhh). When I'm home, I can do so much more (watch stuff, music, games, whatever) -- better things.

What's the new series you're catching up on? I have Whistle!, Last Exile, and a few other series waiting, but I'm not in the mood for them. I'm almost considering going back and watching Dear Boys again... that's sort of what I'm in the mood for.

[morinotokei.livejournal.com]

I haven't started yet, but I'll be catching up on Naruto. Still have some downloading left to do. I know what you mean though. I'm behind on so many series because I'm just not in the mood to watch them.

I'm almost considering going back and watching Dear Boys again

If that's what you're in the mood for, you should do it. I rewatched Hikaru no Go a couple months ago and it was most satisfying, and I caught some stuff I missed the first time around.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Ah, Naruto. A couple of people have mentioned that to me, but for some reason I kept thumbs down'ing it (I can't recall why...). Let me know if you like it? It'd be nice to get into another longer series.

If that's what you're in the mood for, you should do it.

I think that's going to be the plan, yes. It's almost like a food craving: I can't even consider watching something else, I just don't want to see anything not sports and cute boys related. If I can't get more TeniPuri, Dear Boys will be a nice transition to something else.

I'd say bad. You just lost a new doorstop; or paperweight, however you want to look at it.

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Something to beat burglars with, something to scare neighborhood kids with... yeah! I guess you're right!

[ladycosmos.livejournal.com]

Well, if you still kept the ones from the years before....

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

The previous ones lived in my fridge for six months or so before I needed the space and tossed them out. If I had gotten one this year, it'd be funny to give it to someone else... someone I don't like, probably. Hee.

[ladycosmos.livejournal.com]

Who knows? If you give it to someone, then they give it to someone, maybe, in a year, it'll come back to you ^_^ It's the gift that...keeps on coming.
