Death Note @ MindSay


 

   
Selling My Stuff!
I have a lot of stuff that I don't need so I'm going to sell some of it and most likely give the rest away to Goodwill. I'm a little hesitant to use eBay or Amazon, so if you have any advice on which is best let me know!

Also, if you like anime and like collecting figurines, then you might be interested in buying my 3 Limited Edition Death Note figures which include DVD's Volume 1-3 and Ryuk, L, and Light. I'm not asking a lot for them; probably most of what I'm asking is to cover the shipping and handling.

I've got a bunch of other stuff that I have to tally up, though. I'm going to keep probably 25% of whatever I make and donate the rest somewhere.

Any advice is really appreciated!
 
 
   
 

Why Must They Butcher Movies?!
I'm reading the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. I just finished Queen of the Damned and decided to watch the movie. All I can say about the movie is... what the fuck? It was SO butchered! I mean seriously, they leave out or don't even mention like 7 characters! Lestat looks faggier than usual, Armand doesn't even have blonde hair, and they don't even mention one of the most important aspects of the whole story - THE TWINS! Fuuuuuck!

I hate when good things are butchered. Look at Death Note. Good story. The movie? Butchered, of course. Doesn't follow the story at all! They left out Near, Mello, and countless others! Plus, Fujiwara looks like a chipmunk and I can't help but laugh every time I see him.


*Sigh* Oh well. I still enjoy the books. I think they picked the right guy to play Marius in the movie. He looks very... Roman-ish. I think Marius is my favorite character.


Who is YOUR favorite vampire from the Anne Rice novels?
 
 
 

   
Good Birthday
I had a pretty good birthday yesterday. My parents got me a really awesome Battleship game and $100 which I promptly spent today at the mall. Yesterday, I even got a message from 2 school friends wishing me a happy birthday. I figured everyone from school had forgotten about me.

At the mall today, I spent about $70. I bought the Final Fantasy: Advent Children DVD, Death Note 2: The Last Name DVD, and a huge 3' tall wall scroll of Sephiroth. I was super excited when I found out that the DVD's are actually subtitled and not stupid dubs. Nothing is worse than hearing Sephiroth sound like he's about 13 years old. When we got home I made my dad watch Advent Children with me and then afterwards I holed up in my room for 3 hours to watch the Death Note movie. Too bad they were sold out of the 1st Death Note movie. Oh well, it's not like I haven't seen it 3 or 4 times, right?
 
 
   
 

Ki-ra, you've got some 'splainin' to do!
I finished the anime Death Note a few weeks ago, and it is probably one of the best of animes that I have watched. One of the things that always boggled me about the show was that any person who used the Death Note could never go to Heaven or Hell. Do they just sit around in limbo for eternity, or what?

Anyone who's watched the show to its completion will know that a million and a half people use the Death Note after episode 25. I just thought, "Wow, Light has just condemned all these people to hang around in limbo...For-ev-er". I think that nothing for all time is actually a lot worse punishment than going to hell, so therefore Light is a selfish bastard. But whatever, we knew that already.

I guessed that while the hundreds of characters that have used the Death Note are just floating around up there, they'd try to figure out everything that just happened in the show. I imagine it starting something like this:

Misa: "Did you really love me?"
Light: "...No."
 
 
 

   
Depression and Loneliness
I'm starting to feel really depressed again. I'm not getting a lot of sleep either. The depression is always worse at night because everyone is asleep and I am alone. I try remembering if I feel depressed during the day, but as usual I can't remember much of anything that happened during the day. I'm even having trouble just writing this... I'm having trouble thinking about what is bothering me; my mind just draws a blank.

I also feel alone because I'm having trouble finding people to relate to. I feel so different from everyone else. It seems like everyone has maybe one or two interests and that's it. I'd rather have a friend that has an array of interests - talking wouldn't get boring that way.

My mom, I think, is becoming increasing dependent on my assistant again. When she gets that way, I remind her that (in kinder words) I'm not her maid or slave. She gets a bit hurt at first, but she stops asking me to do so much. It feels like she's calling me to do a lot of stuff again. And since I feel so depressed and down, it doesn't help me any.

On a brighter note, I found some different anime to watch. They're not new to the anime community though. I've heard of most of them, but wasn't interested in anime at that time. I started watching D.Gray-Man, Tengen Toppa Gurren-Lagann, and I might rewatch FLCL. I'm still hooked on Death Note though; reading and watching it at the same time.
