Also, I'm very close to finishing another edition of Ask Rachel Alucard. It will be my last episode prior to my inevitable playing of Blaz blue; Continuum Shift. However, I have also been working on something else related to Ask Rachel Alucard, which is why it's been taking a little longer than usual. That other thing being an article that goes behind the scenes for Ask Rachel Alucard. This and chapter 8 will be uploaded at the same time.
However, this is not stopping my newfound obsession with Key Visual Arts. I am trying to acquire as much research on their properties as I can without spoiling myself, and there's a possibility that I may watch AIR on Funimation.com.
However, in my research, I found Visual Arts' youtube channel! Which . . . is almost entirely in Japanese. But I found that they have the trailers for their games. Guess what I found out? The opening song of Kanon is the same one from the game, but shorter; the full score is actually pretty good. Also, the VN version of Clannad looks epic; I am now debating whether I should support them by buying the anime version, or wait for a completed translation and "pick up" the VN version. So many choices, so little time.
Hey, what's this? A trailer with that cute Russian girl from Little Busters?

"WOOOOOOOO! 20 to 1 kill/death ratio on Modern Warfare 2! I AM A MAN!"
"I didn't know you had that ability to kill that many players with a Barret .50 cal, Blue Yoshi!"
"Neither did I! Hey wait . . . xm, are you alright?"
"Check his pulse!"
" . . . Don't worry guys; he's not All Dead, just Mostly Dead."
"Phew, what a relief. Hey, what's that on the computer screen?"
"It looks like a youtube video finished, I wonder what he was-"
"-DON'T HIT THE REPLAY BUTTON! That video must've been what killed him . . . mostly. The title . . . I can't read the title since I don't know Japanese, but the channel is Visual Arts."
"Wait, like, Key Visual Arts? The people that make those moe shows that everyone either absolutely loves or absolutely hates?"
"Yeah, that one. xm must've been looking them up, 'cuz the other day, I heard him talking about a robot girl he said was a lot more moe than the robot girl from Chobits."
"Oh gawd, are you saying he OD'd on kawaii-ness again!?"
"Looks that way."
"Great. I just remembered the last time he OD'd on moe girls."
(flashback)
"xm, we're here! Hey, uh, xm, where are you? Holy shit! Are you alright!?"
"Check his pulse!"
"He's alive, but he's not moving. Hey wait, why is there a manga near his hands?"
"(reading title) Cardcaptor Sakura Master of the Clow volume 4. In other words, volume 10 . . . OH GOSH! LOOK AT HER EYES!"
"DON'T STARE DIRECTLY AT HER, VILE! ONLY SOMEONE WITH A HIGH TOLERANCE OF KAWAIINESS CAN READ CCS!"
"Yeah, well, looks like not even xm could withstand it. I wonder what it was that caused him to OD?"
(Back to the present)
"God damn it! Why does he keep doing this!? Aren't there cute girls in his hometown?"
"There are, but he doesn't like talking about real girls, because he feels that's gossiping. Or at least, that's what he told me."
(Sometime later after the resuscitation effort)
Okay I'm back. Geeze, the last time I fainted from cuteness was when I read the 10th volume of CCS. Seeing Sakura-chan and Tomoyo-chan (er, the CLAMP Tomoyo) dressed like maids was simply too cute for words! Guh! Must not dwell on that! Still, I didn't like how the guys brought me back to life.
(flashback)
"Kallen is fucking HAWT!"
(suddenly snaps back to life) BULL-FUCKING-SHIT! KALLEN IS A FUGLY PSYCHOBITCH!!!!!
"Ah, that's the xm I remember!"
(back to the present)
At least with that Code Geass fanfic, I can picture her looking semi-normal. But anyways, look forward to the last chapter of the Calamity Trigger-era Ask Rachel Alucard. I may even finish it later today, which would be . . . . . .
Excellent.
(Yeah, before I quoted Death Note to no end, I was quoting The Simpsons to no end.)
