Ok I am very sick, and I need my rest, and I have a party to go to... Let me just get this out of the way...
Naruto Chapter 476
Current Battle: Sasuke Vs Danzo
- Ok so we left off as Sasuke is about to fight Danzo, and Danzo activates that weird arm of his... and now it's covered in Sharingan eyes... that would suck if it were windy...
- Sasuke asks Danzo if he was the one who ordered Itachi to kill all of his people, but Danzo just charges at him.
- Sasuke easily blocks Danzo's attack and this giant hand (obviously the power of Susanoo...) coming out of Sasuke's back grabs Danzo.
- We cut back to Naruto and Kakashi decides to go with Sai to stop Sakura while Naruto and Yamato head back to Konoha, but then we get barraged with flashbacks about Sasuke...
- Seriously, there is like 4 pages of little flashbacks... Like a different one each panel...
- Sasuke keeps asking Danzo the same question but he simply doesn't answer...
- Once Sasuke gets his answer he decides to squeeze harder almost killing Danzo while he talks about how people like Itachi are for the greater good and whatnot...
- The chapter ends as Sasuke deals the final blow only to find out that the real Danzo is right behind him.
Bleach Chapter 386
Current Battle: Sajin Vs Tosen
- Ok, so Tosen reveals his full hollow form which is... well to be honest really creepy...
- Now in his full hollow form he can see Sajin, but I thought that his visor could let him see... like in Star Trek... I mean he was "LOOKING" at screens during the Hueco Mundo arc...
- We get a flashback about Tosen's past, but just a little one...
- Ooooh, what a surprise, Sajin actually knew about Tosen's hatred for the world a long time ago.
- Tosen practically destroys Sajin's bankai, which as mentioned in previous chapters would hurt him too.
- Just as Sajin accepts his death, Hisagi comes out of nowhere and stabs Tosen right in the mask.
- The chapter ends as Tosen's vision begins to fade out...
I post every other day, please tell your friends about my blog... blah, blah, blah, now I can rest again...

Another Gaming Otaku Recommends
I should probably do these weekly for this month since it is the holiday season... Also I don't have any ideas for lists right now... don't worry though I always come up with new ones.
Websites:
This is a list of Websites I go to for buying things like Imported Games or Anime DVDs and whatnot, because I mean there is an online shopping world beyond Amazon and eBay.
Imports:
-Play-Asia.
Well, Play-Asia is not just for games, they have alot of movies, books, and even a bit of Gashapon straight from Asia. Play-Asia is where I get most of my newer imports, and I never buy used items on Play-Asia because there really isn't that much used stuff there, I mean every now and then maybe but not very often. The prices may be "outrageous" but hey, almost everywhere else is about the same price or maybe a dollar or two less, so it's not Play-Asia, because Importing new games is expensive no matter where you go, and in Play-Asia's defence they do have alot of sales, of course not as much as Rightstuff, but still alot. The shipping is so-so, if you get the cheapest shipping it could come in any time between 1-5 weeks, and yes I did have a game that took 5 (and a half) weeks to come in. But whenever I order Christmas presents from there I pick the $20 shipping and it takes about 3-4 days, and yes I said 3-4 days from ORDERING it, not 3-4 days after it ships, no that's 3-4 days after I clicked the confirm purchase button. So it has it's ups and downs, but I love Play-Asia and it seemed to comfort me when my local anime store that happened to sell imported games closed down...
- Play-Japan
I forgot what Play-Japan used to be called, I think Japan-export... I don't remember but they re-opened as Play-Japan and I love Play-Japan just as much, if not more than what it originally was. This website is for the older imports, you know the harder to find ones. Also if you can't find it there I think they have an eBay store that still goes by the name Japan-export... their account name might have a few numbers after it too... Anyway I buy my old PS2 imports and whatnot here, and I mean the old hard to find ones, like the Gantz game that I got from their eBay account or the Blood+ games I got from the website itself. The shipping is really fast but there is one problem, it adds up a little too much, I mean even if I ordered like 5 or 6 games (some of them were dirt cheap) $42 (or was it $45?) is waaaaay to much for the cheapest shipping. Oh and they have tons of used games here and I rarely find myself buying new games off of Play-Japan (the very first new game I bought from there was Accel 3, I seriously can't wait for Christmas...) so it's like the opposite of Play-Asia.
Anime DVDs:
- Rightstuf
I ONLY buy anime DVDs from Rightstuf, Best Buy, and occasionally every now and again from Amazon, but I always check Rightstuf first because for the most part it is the cheapest, the regular price for everything on Rightstuf is usually Best Buy price, now your thinking "but if that's true then why the hell do I shop and Rightstuf, I could just go to Best Buy, not have to wait for my DVDs to come in, and not pay shipping." yeah that is true in some cases (like the Yu Yu Hakusho DVDs are gonna be $25 on Rightstuf because of shipping and they are $25 at Best Buy so I just buy them there) but Rightstuf has all sorts of weekly sales, and I am gonna be honest, some of which kinda suck and I find myself viewing the list of things on sale and I swear some of that stuff is more expensive than it was before the sale, but sometimes there are awesome deals like Viewtiful Joe DVDs $2 each, and D. Gray Man Season 1 (parts 1 and 2) for $50 (they were normally like $100 or $110). Oh, and the shipping... hmmm, I don't remember the prices but they were pretty cheap and I think until the 18th the cheapest shipping is free, but I do know that they don't take too long to arrive, usually less than a week. Oh and speaking of the 18th, their 12+ Days of Anime Savings sale ends on the 18th, it should have info about that on the main page.
Sorry if this seemed short, I am quite busy, and not to mention tired, also I don't like to think that by doing this list I am a sell out I mean I like and dislike all of these websites in different ways, so I recommend them but they are far from perfect, but then again, nothing is perfect.

My Top 5 Favorite Fighting Game Series
Well the title says it all, a list of my favorite Fighting Game Series (if you know me well then you should know what number 1 is).
5. Virtua Fighter
Ok, so this one is number 5 because I really almost wasn't going to put it on this list at all but I love Virtua Fighter 2 on my Genisis so I decided to put it on as number 5. Well if you say the characters are unoriginal, well the unoriginal people just copied Virtua Fighter because it was there first. Oh and the fact that you jump like your on the moon is just awesome for me, I mean I liked it in Halo... Anyway, I really don't have much else to say except, what console were Virtua Fighter 3 and 4? I have only seen 1, 2, and 5.
4. Tekken
I'm sorry this is number 4 on the list, I know a certain friend who would kill me for putting it as number 4 but at least hear me out, Tekken is pure awesomeness but I am not the biggest fan of Tekken, I do remember it being in arcades when I was younger but until my friend introduced it to me I didn't play it alot. Anyway Tekken is very unique and it is THE Arcade Fighter that even in Tekken 6 still has all of that Arcade feel. I liked the Campain mode of Tekken 6 at first but probably the day after I typed up my Tekken 6 first impression post I found it getting a little annoying and frustrating. Oh and about that unique comment, well I mean you can play as people from practically around the whole world and you can not only play as a Kangeroo but also a Panda, a PANDA, and yes the Panda is one of my favorite characters.
3. Street Fighter
Ok this one is obvious, I always knew about Street Fighter about as far back as I can remember because it's just so universally known. I might as well just say this right now that my favorite Street Fighter Character is Sakura and no not because of the reasons you people are thinking... and if you weren't thinking that, sorry I just get that alot... but the reason I like playing as Sakura is because I like playing as Ryu and Sakura is just basically a faster Ryu. One thing I don't like about Street Fighter is that they have to remake the same game over and over so if I bought the original than everyone laughs at me because they have the super hyper ultra alpha 4.5 beta anniversary edition... I mean I don't mind Super Street Fighter 4 but when we have like 10 versions of Street Fighter 4 with no Street Fighter 5 in sight I am gonna be pissed...
2. Mortal Kombat
I love Mortal Kombat, not just because of it's over the top gore, but also because I love almost all Mortal Kombat games New and Old (I said almost because of Shoalin Monks...) and somehow I still have not played Mortal Kombat Vs DC... I know I should have played it forever ago but it was that or Little Big Planet... and ever since I just haven't had the money to spare on it... oh and Armogedon has like one of the biggest rosters I have ever seen, with all sorts of merable characters. Oh and please do not mention the Mortal Kombat movies... I would rather not remember those... Also if you can actually pull off those fatalities then kudos to you because I certainly can't, I mean Mortal Kombat is like the king of complicated moves... and spelling everything with a K....
1. Darkstalkers
Yeah, if you know me then this one should have been really obvious, I mean Jedah, Felicia, and Morrigan are like my favorite fighting game characters of all time. Well where do I start? Ok, Darkstalkers is basically an underrated gem made by Capcom and almost forgotten, I mean come on, they are suck teases, they just forget about Darkstalkers and then just put Morrigan in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom with not future plans of releasing a new Darkstalkers game. I mean COME ON! But, I am sure that one day we will get our next-gen Darkstalkers game... someday... anyway, Darkstalkers is basically a fighter with the Capcom fighting engine and awesome original characters that are straight out of all kinds of folklore and mythology, of course the roster isn't as big as most fighting games but I still love it and if I were to get an arcade machine then it would be a Darkstalkers arcade machine because I just love it so much. I cannot explain properly how awesome Darkstalkers is until you play it yourself, but it is just great... and one can only dream for a new Darkstalkers game...
5. Virtua Fighter
Ok, so this one is number 5 because I really almost wasn't going to put it on this list at all but I love Virtua Fighter 2 on my Genisis so I decided to put it on as number 5. Well if you say the characters are unoriginal, well the unoriginal people just copied Virtua Fighter because it was there first.

New American Live Action Death Note Movie...
Ok so let me start this off by saying everytime there is an American live action anime movie people tell me to not pick on it until it comes out but you know what? I do that every time, yes I actually shove my mean comments aside and hope for the best but I have yet to be pleased by any of these movies, with the acception of the live action Blood the Last Vampire movie, if you didn't like it well then sorry but I loved it. Oh and since Wikipedia is a terrible source for proof, I will instead give you a link to Anime News Network reporting that... well... *sigh* ok, let me try to just get this out... Zac Efron is involved in the movie... I have yet to see anywhere confirming that he is playing Light... but all I can say is that I really hope not, anyway here's the link. I also heard on the Escapist forums that they Americanized the names, now I can't confirm this 100%, because it was a guy on the Escapist forum claiming that his friend on IMDB let him see the script and he summarized it, and if he is right then Light is now Luke, Sayu is now Sarah, Soichiro is now John, Light's mom is dead, and their last names are Murray instead of Yagami, oh and if you want to read the supposed summarry I bookmarked the topic so here's the link.
Ok so I am not to worried or upset especially since after Dragon Ball Evolution I still love DBZ just as much as I did before so I'll probably just ingore this movie and stick with the Japanese live action movies. I already discussed and nitpicked the crap out of that supposed script with three different friends so I think that reading it yourself will give you a good enough opinion of your own. Also, those Zac Efron fans out there, I wasn't commenting on his acting when I said I hope he isn't in the movie I'm just pissed that there is a posibility that all of the stupid teenage girls who love Zac Efron are going to watch the American Death Note movie and then possibly read the original manga and either hate it, or get freaked out and then... the controversy begins... and so you see it won't attract that crowd if Zac Efron isn't in it. Sorry if this post seems a bit short, I am quite busy over weekends and as I am writing this I have had a very long day and I want to go to sleep, I will try to make it up with a list but right now all I can think of is Yu Yu Hakusho and Accel 3...
Anyway, I post every other day and be sure to tell your friends about my blog since I only have like 2 visitors a day...

This Week in Weekly Jump
Here we go, it's all here now, sorry it took so long to get the Bleach chapter.
Naruto Chapter 475
Current Battle: Danzo Vs Tobi
- Ok so while Danzo prepares his arm for battle his two... uhhh... assistants? Or whatever they are called, attack Tobi.
- And obviously as we saw before Tobi can pass through any physical object so... yeah they can't even hurt him at all.
- They realize that Tobi at least has to become solid to attack and they can only hit him with a counter attack.
- Turns out one of those guys (the one with the blond hair) is from the Yamanaka clan and I think that since the other guy used poisoned bugs in his attack then he must be in the Aburame clan.
- Tobi ummm... absorbed (yes that is the word they used...) the guy with the poison bugs... but Tobi's right arm got infected by his technique.
- Uhhh... if I'm looking at this right Tobi removed his arm and dropped it on the ground then absorbed the other guy... Wow I would love to see how DisneyXD is going to censor that.
- It then cuts back to Naruto and Gaara as Gaara leaves some very interesting words about friendship for Naruto.
- The chapter ends as Tobi finds and brings Sasuke to Danzo and it tells us that the epic battle will be in color.
Bleach chapter 385
Current Battle: Sajin Vs Tosen
- Ok so we left off when Sajin used his bankai on Tosen.
- Then of course we cut to the battle with Aizen and Shinji where Aizen actually unsheates his sword.
- We cut back to Sajin and Tosen right before Shinji unleashes either his Sikai or Bankai, with "fall" as his command, and Sakanade as his Zanpakutou's name.
- Sajin actually hits Tosen and messes up his arm pretty bad but he gets it back to normal like nothing.
- Oh wow, apparently Tosen only joined the Soul Reapers to get revenge on the Soul Reaper who killed his best friend so I guess he did have a reason to join the Arrancars.
- Because of that information Sajin can now bring himself to kill Tosen.
- The chapter ends as Tosen unleashes his Ressurection.
Ok, I post every other day and tell your friends about my blog... blah, blah, blah...
