i know the feeling...but it's always better to savor it when you have your wits about you....otherwise it would be waste to watch it when you are tired...

it's one of those ironies...something becomes so engaging you want to finish it quickly to reach the climax and/or resolution but you don't want to finish it merely for finishing's sake....

Im going to check out Honey And Clover.

anybody watched Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex...that ish has one of the most intensely layered plots and smartly executed stories in the history of anime....Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG is just as suspenseful....

if you like a plot, and a healthy dose of futuristic action i wholeheartedly recommend these two shoes...better than the initial movie in my opinion....although the comparison might not be entirely fair.

How was it???? I only have 3 DVD for it....i was debating whether i should complete it or not....but leaving an incomplete serie bugs me though :beaten:

it's not bad, i liked it enough to marathon through the last 3 DVD's... i can't say I liked the ending, it wasn't solid enough for me. I mean, there is an ending, but it was one of those matter-of-fact type endings.
I give it a B+ overall.

speed grapher 21-22 is out, tsubasa chronicle 24 is out too.. :mrgreen:
