I know, long leave of absence (insert generic “I’m back now!” blog post).  Personally, I blame finishing up my Master’s degree in Hawaii as the culpret, but I could be wrong >.>  No promises (of course) but I would like to start blogging again soon (cliche!).

After several failed attempts at finding properly subbed torrents for SS episodes 2 and 3, I have just decided to post them myself for you guys to download at your own leisure.  Each episode comes in 3 .rar parts which require all 3 parts before you can extract it.  Enjoy!

Shoujo Sect 2 and 3

Rejoice!  It would appear that Shoujo Sect ep3 is available as I just found it on Usenet.  When a torrent link surfaces, rest assured, a link will be provided.

Update: Curiously, there is still no torrent link available  so I am toying with the idea of uploading it somewhere soon.  Check back occasionally as I will decide on uploading unless a torrent link surfaces.

Update: Finally found a torrent floating around, thanks to the good people at hongfire:

Update: Alright, looks like a subbed version has been released for you patient Yuri lovers:

Update: Oook, one more time! =_=  Here is a working subbed version brought to you by Killer-Maid.  Again, let me know if this link decides to break within 24hrs like the last one. Enjoy!

See newest post….

Yeap, you know if I’m posting again, there must be some yuri and/or loli goodness around.  Well, Shoujo Sect Episode 2 has now been released, it has yet to be subbed (it was released yesterday) but expect an update once one of the excellent fansub groups grabs hold of it.

Download Here:

Update: Almost forgot to post the subbed version:

Edit: New subbed torrent link actually links to a subbed version now, thx Sun.

Sorry for the lack of updates, the end of the summer semester is coming on Wednesday so as can be imagined, I’ve been busy coz I’m a procrastinator >_> .   Anywhooo, here is another english fansub from the awesome guys over at SHiN-gx.  Check them out, and give them some thanks (and page hits, ha).

Torrent Link

The SHiN-gx guys are going to be posting a Megaupload DDL soon too, so keep tabs on their site for that one if you can’t use/hate/don’t know about torrents.

Well, the moment we’ve all been waiting for has arrived, the first subbed version of the Shoujo Sect OVA has arrived!!

It’s that time again when Haruhi welcomes us into yet ANOTHER season without her presence .  There are some other shows that have the potential to makes us briefly forget the wonders of Haruhi, briefly… in much the same way that pizza and ice cream make you forget about that bad breakup because of the oncoming stomach ache….

I’m not going to go through all the available options, there are plenty of good sites that will soon do that so I will simply discuss those options which seem to have potential to my viewing (and possibly my readers) interests.

Yozakura Quartet - A show about 3 superpower girls and 1 ordinary guy.  They work together to save the city time and again.  Seems like a twisted take on a harem anime.  Depending on how they handle the guy-to-girl moments, it could either be funny and fantastic, or drop-dead stupid and generic.  No middle ground on this one.  One of the girls has semi-loli potential with breasts that don’t break the bank (and the back).  Interest Rating: C+

Today In Class 5-2 – Absolutely loved this one when Doumu did it last time.  Must have watched those episodes like 5 times each.  So, obviously I have high hopes for this, the animation is being done by another studio which is very disappointing, but I’ll give them a chance.  Definitely going to check this one out.  Spicy Hot Loligasms for all.  IR: A+

Kannagi: Crazy Shrine Maidens – Who doessn’t love shrine maidens?  I dare you find someone >.>  The premise seems kinda generic with an unsuspecting boy creating a shrine goddess from a tree that comes to life and they have to fight evil to save the town.  However, I like the art style of the press shots so I’m going to give this one a look see.  Art can make a bad show acceptable to me, so this one is being given the benefit of the doubt.  Girls are cutely drawn, big plus for Lolispotting.  IR: B+

Tora Dora – Cute girl with crazy small tiger as a “friend.”  Not much other information but that, so far, but its being animated by JC Staff which means that we could be seeing another wrathful loli, which I’m all in favor of.   IR: B

Akane Iro Ni Somaru Saka – Arranged marriage with cute, possibly wrathful, loli and unsuspecting guy.  Could be generic, could be cute.  Art style again seems to be good, possibly based off a game, need to double check that, just a hunch.  High possibilty of loli romance here so checkin it out.  IR: A

OVAs

Lucky Star – Wow, didn’t see this one coming, but on Sept. 29th we are treated to an OVA of the Lucky Star girls.  Hoping that its a bit more than just a long episode but hey, I’ll take any chance to hang out with my favorite undersized girls  Animation is always better in an OVA and KyoAni is the best animator currently out there.  Expect the best in this case.  IR: A+

Quiz Magic Academy – Apparently a show being released in tandem with a new DS game.  Hey, if it proves to be entertaining then I’m down.  From the press shots it looks like there are going to be lots of cute girls in this one being all kinds of awesome.  High potential for good ecchi (not useless ecchi, subject of future post) and maybe even a bit of romance thrown in for fun and in an all girls school situation, that can only be a good thing, ha.  IR: A

Whelp, that’s it for now, let’s all hope for a good Fall 08 season.

Was trollin the intarwebs last nights and stumbled across the translated versions of Shoujo Sect manga chapters 7-9!!!  THANK YOU DYNASTY SCANS!!!  So, I’ve uploaded the 3 chapters as a batch HERE.  But please also check out their site, they have worked on a number of awesome projects.  Best translation team I’ve stumbled across in quite some time.

Here is a brief look at the upcoming Fall 08 Anime season.  I’ll talk about some of the shows that look interesting, and which I’ll blog, once I’ve digested the options, but for now, take a look.  Thanks to the guy who originally put this together, awesome job.

Everyone has seen the Soul Calibur IV reviews from the big site, but we all know they don’t focus on the most important feature of the game… the ability to create/modifiy/and fight with, killer lolis !!

(Quick Disclaimer: The quality of the screenshots and videos are really crappy, my apologies.  I had to capture them using an RF adapter for the 360 connected to a PCI TV Tuner card which didn’t like to play with the 360 properly, and I was trying to keep the video size down for uploading purposes)

Well, anyone who’s anyone has seen all the great clips of Yoda, The Apprentice (Donald Trump?), and Vader, along with all the hot babes of SCIV.  But not everyone has been given a sneak peak at the real girls of SCIV, Talim, Amy, and the ultimate character creation.

You’ve probably seen the stylized versions of Talim in the various adverts, but did you know you can change her outfit among a slew of other things?  As you can see here, I immediately went for the basement

But you can also be more classy, as in my second attempt at creating my own “Talim”

Here’s a sexy match up.  As you can see, or guess, I had unlocked Amy’s clothes and recolored them and stuck them on Talim.  Why?  Coz they’re sexy.

Here’s a look at the character Edit screen, this is if you want to edit an existing character.  So many options, and even more get unlocked by simply playing the game, can’t ask for more than that.

As noted earlier, I didn’t waste anytime see how far I could go , in all honesty, I was just trying to get rid of her current outfit so I could create my own, but ya know, when you stumble across a good thing, I tend to accept it as is.

Video Time

Lets see if I can do this correctly…

Here is one of Talim’s intros with the new clothes.  That’s what I love most about the Character Creation stuff; even in the story line, if you use custom clothes, they show up in the videos and have the same physics that all the standard clothes do.  It may sound like common sense, but many a game up to this point only used standard clothing during scenes.  Looking at you RPGs >.>

Here’s a brief in-depth look at the character creation process including the amazing “physique” feature which allows you to pick the muscularity and bust size of female characters.  Sweet Mammary Glands indeed.

Here is a demonstration of one set, and i stress that, ONE set of Talim’s moves.  Again, my apologies for crappy quality…

Here is one of Amy’s pre-fight intros.  I loved her muted “Urasai” when you pick her, reminds me of some other awesome wrathful lolis…*cough* Shana *cough* Louise *cough*

Well that’s all for now!  If you haven’t bought this game already, I hope this convinces you to pick it up.  The game is amazingly fun and any fan of fighting games owes it to themselves to go out and buy this game immediately.  Great depth and replayability, good single player game as well as online/mulitplayer.  All your friends are playing it, you know you want to too.

Edit: Wow, the quality of Youtube videos is absolutely horrid.  I will work on it tonight and see if I can’t at least make them watchable, my apologies. I may try another wordpress acceptable video site.
