Yotsuba has been on my to read list for ages. I think a part of me is holding off in hopes of it finally getting an anime.

Oh yea, forgot to mention Hunter x Hunter. Dunno how easy that is to get a hold of anymore though.

It's highly doubtful. Azuma doesn't like the idea of their work being animated. They didn't want the Azumanga Daioh anime to happen and they weren't happy with the result.

Picked up a couple of anime DVDs in town today:

The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya as I might understand what the hell is going on now that I've seen series two and I may appreciate it better without being stuck with a full bladder in a cinema full of people whose film you don't want to interrupt.

Hetalia Series 3 because it makes me laugh.

Caught up on Shingeki no Kyojin again and yet again it still managed to be incredibly grim. Awesome series though, shame the series has about as much chance of getting a western release as a character does of surviving a volume.

So I've been watching the latest Dubbed Naruto Shippuden Episodes and I've gotta say that I'm disappointing. It truly is a slap across the face when you wait for 2 months for like 10 new episodes to come out and it turns out that more than half of them are just fillers.
And with that, Naruto Shippuden broke its record of not playing any fillers unlike it's original anime. Though SOME people think it's not really filler since it has something to do with the story and stuff but really, it's still a filler in my opinion... -_-

Now I have the choice of either waiting another god damn 2 months for 10 new episodes or say Fuck it and just watch subbed. I had planned on doing the second one but the more I think about it, the more I want to watch the Naruto vs Pain fight in dubbed.

Bah...

Well... I used to say that I prefer dubbed because subbed makes you always have to look at the subtitles instead of the actual animation. Nowadays Subbed doesn't bother me, cause I've been watching subbed anime for a while now and I seem to don't mind it.

However, on the topic of Naruto, it's not a matter of preference. It's just that I've always watched the dubbed episodes and so, it has become somewhat of a habit. I honestly don't have any opinions about the voice acting as I don't mind them at all, though Naruto IS somewhat annoying but really, the same could be said about Japanese female voice actors. It's like Sonic. The people who grew up with Modern Sonic are likely to like the modern stages more than the classic stages unlike classic Sonic Fans who prefer classic gameplay. Same goes for me. Both version work but I've just always watched Naruto Dubbed.

But I AM about to break that by starting Subbed as soon as the next batch of dubbed episodes come out.

The Naruto dub is pretty painful outside of a few characters. And the dub isn't even at the pain fight yet? Dude, just let it go and watch it subbed.

Yeah... I know... the dubbed episodes are a pain in the donkey.


Again, I'll just move on with the subbed once the next batch of episodes which HOPEFULLY will contain the pain fight, are out.
