The Many Reasons Why I Keep Watching Anime

February 23, 2013 by Chikorita157 12 Comments

Artist: yakka

Although I shared my reasons why I blog about Anime almost two years ago, I never wrote about why I still watch Anime. Since Kai shared his thoughts about why he continues to watch Anime, I became interested in writing about it since it’s a rather diverse medium. (Image Source)

Thoughts about Tales of Series and Tales of Hearts Demo

In the past, I have played various Japanese RPGs such as Final Fantasy and Pokémon (excluding the Atelier games I played recently). Of course, there is one other RPG series that is popular with the Anime fandom and it’s the Tales of Series. (Image Source)

Chikorita157’s Anime Blog turns 4 Years Old – Humble Thoughts

February 17, 2013 by Chikorita157 5 Comments

Artist: nanoha

Believe it or not, my 3rd year of blogging was a pretty good year. While I didn’t win the 2nd Aniblog Tournament, at least my match came a bit closer compared to the first one that happened in 2010. In addition, I explored other means of content besides writing episodic and editorial posts. Aside from that, there were some real life events such as Hurricane Sandy, which prevented me from blogging for a few days. Despite the difficulties I face while more Anime blogs died in the past year, I pushed on and now have reach the fourth year of blogging.

Since I reached my fourth year of blogging, where do I go from here since I don’t show any sign of dying anytime soon? Well, I’m pretty much doing more of the same since I’m satisfied by how things are going now. On the other hand, with Grad School is on the horizon, I might have to adjust what I blog and probably stick to weekly editorials and stuff.  When the time comes, I will figure it, but it all comes down to proper time management.

With that, I thank all my friends, followers and readers who supported me for all these years. Let’s make the fifth year a strong one!

Raw Statistics: 1140 posts, 2655 Comments, 54 Completed Series (No visitors/page views statistics as Piwik sort of broke on me).  (Image Source)

Let’s Play Atelier Meruru – Episode 4, 5 & 6

February 16, 2013 by Chikorita157 Leave a Comment

Artist: nasubi kyou

If you might be wondering why I delayed the third post for this Let’s Play, it’s an unexpected one. I realized recently that I didn’t record enough episodes up until Spring Break, which starts on March 17. The bad news is that, I have to delay Episode 9 and 10 because I need to re-record some parts of the commentary that got messed up.  Even so, I bought a better microphone yesterday, which is a Blue Snowball since there was a good deal on it. Hopefully, that will sound better than the crappy internal mic I was using from my previous recordings.

As for the episodes’ content, I’m getting a bit deeper into the game. Basically, I completed my first year of developing while having new people to accompany me on adventures. Of course, there is a special surprise in Episode 6, but I won’t spoil it since it’s cute. (Image Source)

Experience of Using Japanese Video Games as Practice

February 12, 2013 by Chikorita157 5 Comments

Artist: miyama-zero

As you may know from my review of the Playstation Vita, I actually use video games as a way to practice what I have learned besides studying the textbook, memorizing new vocabulary and writing sentences. While the readings are great in the textbook as they show how the grammar is being used for a particular lesson, it can get a bit cheesy at times as it’s usually consists of people talking about school life and such. For that reason, I decided to play some video games in raw Japanese and I had a pretty good experience from it.
