Ooh, multi-tasking between PW and homework? If you can pull it off someday I'll.. raise my hat in respect ^^. Mm.. Yeah, I remember that the flying stops eventually. It also stops even from the slightest obstacle, it's quite annoying. Every MMO becomes so much more difficult after the mobs become aggressive, less fun too in some cases. Haha! Yeah, the speed is just terrible with the white wings. It's actually more frustrating than fun to fly with those. That's why I first grinded to lvl 30 and got myself the brown wings before exploring. Oh.. Poor Allen. I can clearly see the change. By the way, which is superior in your opinion: the manga or the anime of D. Gray Man? So did I ^^ (about Naruto). Continue..
No. I'm afraid of horror movies as it is. But I think I could at least imagine gruesome characters in less threatening ways with books as oppose to movies. I've read thrillers, though. :o Oh yeah, black and white can be truly horrifying. After all, I think of color as a comfort; it gives it a realistic appeal, but by doing that, the mystical application of horror is lost. Shadows and other contrasts can be seen better in black and white. Hour long?! Hm, I don't think I could sit through hour long episodes. xD Maybe at first, but after awhile, I'd start to get panicked about time T_T (says the girl who stays up late playing PW). The thing that is interesting about manga and anime is that it is both vast in genras and in numbers. Even though I've spent a great deal reading many mangas (since the storyline tends to continue better and quicker in written, comic book form), there are still tons upon tons that I haven't read. Heh, I'm addicted to manga. xD
A funny thing just popped into my mind. Have you ever read horror books? I just realized I haven't. It would be nice to experience how horror is shown in a book. This is just my opinion but if the creator knows what they are doing, then adding color has no real impact. So yeah, black & white can be just as scary ^^. Haha, yeah.. they become beautiful, sort of. Well, Hellsing is definitely an insane anime that's for sure ^^. As a matter of fact, it's been some time since I last checked for a new episode. It always takes a long time till a new episode is released. But I guess that's understandable since they are almost hour-long episodes and the level of detail is just amazing. Oh my, you've mentioned a dozen animes & mangas within a single response! So yes, I did see all of them . And yeah, I remember you're the anime/manga freak (not in a bad way) ^^.
Mm.. Indeed, MMORPGs tend to have that same "problem". Best way to avoid homework by far ^^. I did something interesting in PW a while back. I wanted to see the whole world since it's obvious that there are plenty of amazing spots with breathtaking views. I created an elf just because they can fly and thus avoid those high-level monsters. It took a while, but eventually I explored the whole world ^^. Two people joined me at one point, it was nice. The only thing I regret is that I didn't take any screenshots of the sights I saw. It would've been great to share them. Hmm? It's rare to see a change in the main character. Is Allen's hair different or something? Ah, those are a constant devil (the "delayed" ones). When I still was actively watching Naruto it was always about waiting for the next episode. Continue..
So, demented characters become beautiful in Hellsing? Heh, either way, I've been wanting to see a truly insane anime after reading Pandora Hearts and seeing only a snipet of Oz's "beserk" moments in the anime (which ended before the manga, giving it a happy ending...). Ha, I guess that's how music is. xD I'm listening to "Beautiful World" so... Not at all. Anime/Manga is practically my specialty (well, aside from old ones or saying the actual names and remembering character names...hmn...). I mean, did you see all the anime/manga I listed while replying? xD
Oh yeah, I do that all the time, as well as with PW. I'll be fighint mobs and leveling up, only to realize how much time has gone by. That's why I took a short break from both of them, but yet again, I'm avoiding my homework by doing both. x.x Yeah, like I did with Pandora Hearts, Alive (completed!), 07-Ghosts (stalled), D. Gray Man (Allen looks nothing like how your profile pic looked like in the beginning D, Natsume Yuujinchou, and several others. My point? Once you DO get up-to-date and surpass the "first time", you end up having a pile of "delayed" manga that release monthly at best (although KHR is suppose to be weekly, it's irregular at times). Hm, I've seen psycho killers (Deadman Wonderland, for example), but its one thing to read a manga and another to see an anime. *shiver* Then again, black and white can be frightening as well. :o Continued as well...
There are plenty of other characters who are just as insane.. and I think that's really the thing that everyone likes about Hellsing. It's just so extreme, it smashes the boundaries that bind us and creates something engrossingly.. beautiful perhaps. Yeah, and I just realized how crazy I sound. It must be because of the music I'm listening.. it's calm and beautiful. It's hard to describe something as twisted as Hellsing with "butterflies & peace 4ever" - kind of music.. it affects the way I look at Hellsing. Wow, okay now I just need to stop before I bore you to death!
Haha, I just knew you've had the same.. hmm.. bursts of enthusiasm ^^. Yeah, the manga really swallows you and that's when you forget the flow of time. Eventually you check the time and go all "OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, I TOTALLY FORGOT X!!" Hate it when that happens >.< I still have a long way to go with KHR. Heh, isn't the "first time" always the best? ^^. I'd say that fits most animes & mangas. Hellsing can be frightening, believe me I've been there. It's just so insane and the expressions everyone make are out of this world(they really went out of their way when making them). They even made priests look like sociopathic killers. One fine example is Alucard's so-called rival, Father Anderson. He's a priest who is kind and compassionate among children.. but when he sees a vampire, he just turns into this psychotic killing machine who doesn't give a damn what happens as long as the vampire dies. He just loves to see a vampire squirming before it dies.. Scary. Continue..
Heh, I know how you feel. I was reading Kekkaishi like a mad person. I didn't realize how many chapters it had at the time, but when you get interested in a manga, you get really absorbed into it. As for KHR, I'm already up-to-date with it, so I have to wait weekly for it to come out. Ho hum. I must say I liked Tsuna more when he was fighting against Rokudo, though. It's when he first unleashed his "awakened" power. Hm, I don't know. I always hear about Alucard from Hellsing, but when I looked up pics on Google, they frightened me. xD I also heard about Blood+ and Ghost in the Shell, both of which have good ops.
Wow.. I'm so tired. You know why? Well, I finally got into the good parts in the KHR manga where Tsuna "awakens" so to speak (against Rokudo). I read 21 episodes in a row.. No, wait, I did take a half hour break at some point. Anyway, my eyes were just glued to the screen. The manga is just so amazing.. I even put on the music from the anime to enhance the feeling. Breathtaking.. I have no other words for it. Interested about Hellsing, are we? Well, it's going to be one heck of a ride ^^. Watch the OVA versions if you're going to!
