Original English VN ‘Memo’ Released
Author: NovaJinx
Aww…don’t say that Lizzy, I just want to make sure you’re safe.
Thanks to sage for the heads up, an OEL visual novel Memo got released today. I’m no news service but since original English language VNs aren’t an everyday’s happening, I thought it deserves a post. Memo is available for free as a 77MB zipped package, you can find download links on its website. I gave it a quick spin myself and it looks quite nice for a free VN. Tsundere Liz is so damn hot too…verbal abuse, NEED MOAR! The GUI is very smooth and nicely done, as are the scene and character transitions.

Halo Legends OVA 1 Impressions – The Origins
Author: NovaJinx
ATTENTION: This episode was produced by captive Flood animators while the production crew was busy drinking the budget up.
[22:57] (+NovaJinx) Halo Legends, I am not impress
[22:57] (+NovaJinx) I somehow expected more than what reminds me of the shitty flash animations in Mirror’s Edge
Kara no Kyoukai 7
Author: JTFish
That’s the best he could come up with?! Look like a total emo faggot? Any heterosexual person would have chosen the obvious option:
MOTHERFUCKING EYEPATCH AND PIRATE HAT. Think about it, it’s perfect. Shiki could have gotten one of them hook hands. And he could have gotten his broken leg amputated and replaced with a peg leg. And together they could have shown those Somalians how pirating is done. Man that would have been a badass sequel…
Baka to Test Episode 5 – You Wish The Cake Was A Lie
Author: NovaJinx
Damn Silver Link, Baka to Test is pretty much the funniest show I’ve seen ever since Seto no Hanayome. Hell, I’m beginning to think that it deserves to be promoted to God Tier. In this modern world of comedic mediocrity, stuff like this definitely stands out – nowadays it seems that most studios have interpreted that as long as you stuff as many references into a show as possible, it will be comedy gold. Oh well, I guess we can only blame their retarded audience.

So-Ra-No-Wo-To Episode 5 – Damn kids, when I was in the army…
Author: NovaJinx
Not like I’ve been feeling like picking up episodic blogging but SoraWoto’s fifth episode managed to bring up some not so nice memories of my time of service in the Finnish Defense Forces. Now I sorta know the feeling all the Finnish fathers have when they tell their sons how it was so much tougher back in their day and that conscripts these days are weak and stupid. In fact I claim that whoever hasn’t been through the luxury of military service doesn’t really get much out of this episode.

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Lagann-hen Movie Impressions
Author: NovaJinx
I wasn’t expecting anything of Gainax after the first TTGL movie which was little more than a waste of time and hard drive space. Hell, I wasn’t even going to bother with this shit until so people started being so obnoxious about how much it rocks. So I set out to find out whether it’s another proof of the generally shitty taste of the public.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 PC Beta Impressions
Author: NovaJinx
Since everyone and their dog pre-ordered the game, I didn’t feel like missing out. I had just gotten back into Battlefield 2142 too, so I thought what the hell.

Nova’s January 2010 Anime Awards
Author: NovaJinx
Oh dear.
What does an anime blogger do when he has an irresistible urge to post but has no decent ideas? Do a Top-listing with a semi-random theme or pull off some shit like this. Hooray for dynamic blogging! Well okay, I was too busy with Bad Company 2 beta to actually try to think up something good to write about. Good thing the beta goes apeshit every now and then, refusing to let me play for a couple hours or so. Anyway, on with today’s topic.

Image Site Rage Act III – Failing, are they? Failing, are they? Well, let ‘em fail!
Author: NovaJinx
It’s been a couple months since I last posted my shitlist and I think it’s time to once again take a look at what the winter has brought to us avid consumers of online image sites. Broken English, zoom layers, horrific extraction and one-click texture effects welcome you to the wonderful world of anime-themed wallpapers once more!
