So as you can see, I have a modest collection that I will probably take a pic of soon and more is on the way. I hope to find more titles that interest me, and I hope to let you know which ones rock, and which ones fail to make the grade. I hope to, again, do more of the audio Mega Media Mondays (as I get time, realize I'm in college) and just enjoy the world of anime, which was once a strange and puzzling pasttime, is now something I am very much a part of, and I think its made me happier.
Anyways, I would talk about my thoughts on the industry or why I like paticular genres, but I talk about them enough, and probably will when I have little to talk about.
I hope you have a splendid weekend, and look forward to more things on here, maybe....perhaps......
....who am I kidding, of course!
