Welcome to Gaia! ::

I got to watch Case Closed. I have stuff 3 hours before normal time, so if I stay up until 3, I can watch it at 2:30. Last night was the episode that I saw first, the first time they were going through the episodes oh so long ago. Yeah.... I like that show. I started re-reading a book, and it's not as fun this time around, because I know what happens, and who this one character is dressed up as. But it's still entertaining. Now I get to laugh at the similarity between the character as he actually is and the one he acts as. It's funny, he's great when he's in character. He actually gets to let his feelings show, a little bit. I can't wait until school starts and I get to force my friend to read the book. whee

When I arrived at the cinema I was like this: mad gonk Howl's moving Castle was dubbed, not subbed!! The newspaper, which tells the movies and where we can see them, said that this was the only place that had Howl's Moving Castle subbed. I had to convince my mom to go all the way to a very far neighborhood, and when we get there, it had horrible voices!! Really, most of the voice actors were terrible. The only good ones were that fat woman's and Howl's Teacher, the owner of that dog. The rest was... ugh. Especially Sophie's... Well, that was the pre-thing, you know, erm... I don't know how to say it in English. Anyway, there'll be more places with it subbed later, so I'll watch it again.

I just wrote so much and then the stupid computer had to freak out on me again? stressed

Anyway, I hear ya. The voice that made me twitch the most was Sophie?s sister, even if she didn?t have that big a role?Howl was fine to me in the beginning but for some reason, as soon as his hair turned Haku-style (spirited away) it made it weird?I don?t know how to explain it. Then again, I always say Disney could always improve their choices of guy voice actors, as well as some of the girls. Yep, Howl?s teacher was the one who got the better end of the deal?lucky it matched her.

You know, when Howl was throwing that tantrum about his looks I almost screamed, ?Hotohori!? but I just busted up laughing. The theatre I was in was hilarious on its own too?like the guy snoring in the front row lol Pretty interesting group came to watch, only about 10 people in there but enough to entertain me along with the movie?I just want it to come out on dvd already! heart

o_o Wow and I thought I was the Elitist here. I loved the dub of Howl no Ugoku Shiro, I mean, I've watched it in Japanese and I loved it that way, but I honestly preferred the dub. The voices were well suited to the characters and were very tolerable. Especially compared to the s**t they throw on TV now a days. Disney works really hard to cast their voice actors wisely and thus far I've only ever been really disappointed in Sen to Chihiro (Spirited Away) and that was specifically with Chihiro's voice. I really think you guys don't give Disney enough credit, or just haven't watched enough really bad dubs ^^;;;

In general though, I adore the movie, to me it was a great movie. I keep running into people that say it sucked and trashed Diana Wynn Jones' novel, but I think its stupid on their part to expect a movie to ever be exactly like a book. I think they should've just taken the movie as a separate entity celebrating the spirit of the original novel. It helps, I guess, that I hadn't read the novel beforehand, I ordered it afterward and I'm still waiting on it to arrive. Howl is by far, the BEST Miyazaki leading male I've ever seen (I've seen every Miyazaki movie too). Calcifer is also probably my favorite, he's awesome in both versions of the movie, but I love some more of his English lines.

Wedsday:: Can't take the nudity go back to American cartoons =P

Question, did any of you have trouble finding the Yuu Watase Guild when you first joined it? There was this request today that said that she "finally found" it. Is it that hard to find, or do most people just think anime when they think of Yuu Watase's works?

I have a question. Will you be making an Absolute Boyfriend/Zettai Kareshi sticky? I think we need one, since it was licensed.
Also, we'll have a favorite character poll on the Genbu Kaiden sticky after most of the characters appear, right?

Yeah, to both. I'm waiting till I see Zettai Kareshi in stores before I make it into a sticky. And I really didn't even thinkn about a poll, that'd make sence. Course, we should peobably get a little farther before we make one.

You're the only one who ever shows up most the time.
