So, how many of you have heard of this? That's right, someone's making a series of short films of Another Note, and they need voice actors for the characters. If you've read the novel, you should know which roles are up for grabs (I know L, Naomi, Quarter Queen, Backyard Bottomslash, and possibly B are filled, but there could be more).

Just call me Quarter Queen. :D

For those ignorant of what's going on right now in Japan's eroge market, by October 09 there will be a wide-spread ban in effect, forbidding on the creation and selling of both previously-released and new eroge including any of the following content: Rape, Loli, Gang Rape, Assault, Brutality, “Reverse” Rape, Adultery, “Reverse” Assault, Compulsion, Gangbang, Bestiality, Bondage, Coercion, Train Molestation, Prostitution, Incest, Torture, Binding, Pregnancy, Violation, Slaves, Pregnant Women, Confinement, Conception, and possibly Nekomimi.This means not only will the eroge market suffer a staggering blow, but companies that specialized in those sort of dark games will have to quit.

Do I realize probably none of my f-list cares or even likes any of the mentioned themes? Yes. Do I care? Yes, I do, because everyone should be against this sort of censorship against something enjoyed by adults in the privacy of one's own home. Playing an eroge featuring lolis does not make you a pedophile. Playing an eroge with rape does not turn the individual into a rapist. There is a thick, black, bold line between reality and fantasy, and those who cannot discern it should not even play at all.

There are three months left before the ban is in effect, before my hobby is effectively ripped to shreds, and legally.

Do you care? Maybe not. But this is still disgusting.

13,000 words of choppy plot, thinly-veiled smut, and massive character development out of nowhere, my philosophy project is finished. Pretty short for a novella, though.

ALSO! Summer vacation in: 4 days.

I love philosophy.

Our final project is actually FUN. There are three guidelines: it has to be about something we studied, we have to present it, and it has to be in one of the acceptable forms (powerpoint, poster, pamphlet, screenplay, graphic novel, book). So I chose Dualism and 'Moral justification for allowing evil', and I'm writing it in book form.

The main character displays sociopathic behavior/thinking; she believes she's destined to be God, and wants to rebuild the world so she can be at the 'center' of it. The other girl suffers from Wendigo Psychosis and thinks she's the physical embodiment of the Wendigo.   ...lololol I can never have normal characters.

Seriously, how many classes do they let you do the final project in graphic novel form? Which is my second choice if the book fails.

AWasdfdghjk I still have so much work to do on my Minatsuki cosplay before the Fanime. /works harder

Almost done. ALMOST DONE. 3,485 words.

I JUST HAVE TO WRITE UP GUILLERED'S SAMPLE JOURNAL POST. THAT'S ALL.

AND I CAN'T THINK UP A DAMN THING FOR HIM TO SAY.

Neo Genesis mods and muns on my f-list, is there anything recent going on that's city-wide and would be worth noting? The most recent thing I can find is Nagi's auction, and that's been done with.

SO I'M PULLING A KYAKI AND WRITING A RIDICULOUSLY LONG APP, WHOO. Current word count: 2,500 words.

WHILE I HAVE THE FLU. BEAT THAT.


gfhgfdsaqew screw this I'm taking a nap

Hmmm, well, I've been having fun. 8D

So my homestay arrived (name's Chiho), and it turns out Chiho's friend, Yukiko, is the senpai of my last homestay, Manami. Small world. It really surprised me when Yukiko said "まなみを知っていますか?" I just hope nothing bad about me was said.

So, we chatted, Chiho apparently had a rough flight, she liked the taiko drum performance we had, she likes the piano, just idle stuff. Oh, and her big sister is also here, but with a different host. Her sister looks like she stepped straight out of a Baby the Stars Shine Bright magazine, freaking adorable. All the girls were. Like my own harem.

After we got home Chiho started saying "あなたの家は大きいです!" which made me verbally keysmash. She kinda remained in awe for the rest of the day.

I did the homestay program last year, so I know that the girl or boy you host will generally bring a little something to show you their gratitude.

But Chiho?

Chiho brought a pound of chocolate. There was so much candy bars and whatever the Japanese equivalent of Hershey kisses are that it was a freaking mountain of chocolate. And a painting. She brought a painting by an artist whose name I didn't catch but is apparently very popular in Japan. dsfygukjhkhg how do you repay that sorta thing?!

Oh, and I found out she likes Death Note, which scores major points with me. She thinks Light is scary, loves L and Near, and thinks Mello is cute (fffft). She's also a fan of Miyazaki movies, especially Spirited Away.

We took her to dinner later, and she ate like a bird. That is to say, took very little and took a while to eat. Now, maybe it's just me being blind to America's large portions, but I can't help but be worried she'll go hungry. (Seriously, unless you plunk your homestay down, place food in front of them, and eat in front of them, they will not eat.)

On the flip side, however, I've had no time to work on the Klaus/Near fic for dn_contest . There's a party tonight for all the homestays and their hosts, so I don't know when I'd even be able to submit it, either. I feel awful about missing the crossover prompt for a second time, especially since I was so determined to submit something. *smacks self*

Oh, and happy birthday O~ you adorable amputee, you.
