one piece Ch 550- Marine Headquarters

One Piece finally came out and it was awesome! In this chapter there are a few big surprises. In the beginning of the chapter there are scenes of the four seas showing what the people thought of White beard which wasnt very highly. Then it went to marineford where Ace was to be executed. There was a lot of marines there as well as five shichibukai and the three marine admirals. It was revealed that Ace's mother Portgas D. Rogue, actually held Ace in her womb for twenty months, then died! But that wasn't even the biggest surprise. The biggest surprise was that his father was actually Gold D. Roger!!!! To me this doesn't make any sense because Luffy is supposed to be Ace's brother but how can that be possible if Ace's mother died after giving birth to Ace so how can he have a little brother? i thought that Ace and Luffy had different mothers and same fathers but now this turns everything upside down. This means that Luffy and Ace are not brothers but actually cousins, but the most confusing art is who is the son or daughter of Garp. It could be either Portgas D. Rouge or Gold D. Roger, they both have D. as a middle name so it could be either. Anyways everybody has to read this chapter now!

Bleach CH. 366- The Revengers High

This Chapter was a pure battle chapter. it was just all the vizards just kicking the gillians ass, though they did it pretty fast and their power was evident through how fast they destroyed the gillian. Only Shinji didnt go for the gillian he went straight for Aizen, but right before he attacked he took off his hollow mask. So those who are into the battle scenes will really like it. As for me I like a little story with my battles, so this was not to good for me, but others might enojoy it.

Naruto Ch 456- Naruto Departs

Well as usual for the transition between arcs and the start of an arc the chapters will be a little boring. This chapter is about all the Kages heading over to the meeting place which is the neutral Land of Iron lead by Mifune. Though there is a little twist, this nation consists of strong Samurai, which begs the question what kind of techniques do they use? Danzo also appears to be pretty strong, killing several land of wood assassins. Also Naruto, Yamamoto, and kakashi are following Danzo so anything could happen at the meeting I guess. This Chapter was not that interesting in all, except of course for the seeing the land of iron, but then again that wasn't to interesting. this has been another review from PY see ya later!

Street Fighter IV

This is the latest of the Street Fighter series from Capcom. Released February 17th of this year, Street Fighter IV is available on Steam for $39.99. Basically 40 bucks out of your pocket.

Here's the E3 trailer for it:


Basically whats new is that it's a 2D game, but in 3D haha that sounds funny. There's the addition of focus attacks, which is a move that lets you absorb and attack and counter, and ultra combos which are just ultra combos. There are 19 playable characters in the game, with the addition of four new characters: Abel, Crimson Viper, Rufus, and El Fuerte.

In reviews SF4 got very good ratings; Gamespot, Gametrailers, and IGN give it a 9/10 or above. The question is though are you willing to shell out forty bucks for this? If you're a die-hard Street Fighter fan then go on right ahead. But for people who can't come up with the money as of yet, why don't you try playing Marvel vs Capcom on your computer for free? Yeah I said for FREE.

Just download Mame32 (an emulator) from www.romnation.net, find the Marvel vs Capcom rom, download it, load, and play. I'm pretty sure you can even find the old Street Fighters on there.

Here's what it'll look like:


Cool eh? And you'll be saving yourself forty bucks too

Bleach CH. 365- Whose Side Are We On

Hello all PY here to tell you bleach ch 365- Whose Side Are We On is out, finally. It looks like shonen jump is going back to its usual Friday rotation, damn. Anyways... this weeks chapter is about the Vizors and it answers the question I posed last review, which was, "What side are the Vizor on?" and kubo tite seemed to have read my mind and answered the question, he even put it in the title. This chapter wasnt all too exciting but it did show that Lisa still had some feelings for her captain, Kyouraku. Also, Shinji goes up to Yamamoto and explains to him that he is neither on the shinigami or aizens side but instead is on ichigos side. Next the big ass hollow spits up a shit load of gillians but it seems the gillian arent gonna be a problem because all the vizor put on their masks. This chapter was all in all not to interesting but it seems that the battle is just about to start so i believe that the next few chapters are gonna be crazy!!!

Naruto Ch 455- Bond...!!!

So this week we are introduced with a new chapter that includes a ridiculous surprise and a new blogger! You can call me your favorite blogger, SP.

Anyway. The chapter begins with Danzo getting ready for the meeting of the 5 kages. We see two of the strongest root members, Fu and Torune. I thought when they took off their mask they would be two characters we knew, but I guess not. Then it goes on with the Cloud ninja Karui beating the crap out of Naruto when all of a sudden Gay--whoops Sai steps in to stop them. Captain Sumi then comes and sees whats happening. Hopefully in later chapters Sumi can be a tit of the week star ;). Gay--DAMNIT i mean SAI then takes Naruto to Kakashi and Yamato where Naruto reveals he met his father, the 4th hokage, and that Madara Uchiha is behind the nine tailed fox and everything else. We also learn that the 4th has faith in Naruto, which is obvious beyond all doubt. Later, Danzo heads out with his two root body gaurds and gets attacked. The chapter ends with a ridiculous ending--Danzo has the sharingan!

Okay, so that frail old man who thinks he's the greatest of all time and sneaky as hell might be stronger than he actually is. What the hell is going on? Sharingan? WTF? How does everyone have the freakin sharingan? It's like he bought it on ebay or something. And for me, personally, his eye looks really weird. But maybe that's just me...who knows? So now we are in for a great surprise and who knows what's going to happen in later chapters? Anyway, let's just hope that this manga gets better and not worse, because for all I know, everyone's just getting freakin buff. Until next time.....PEACE

Tit of the Week - Tsunade's Big Ass Bozangas

This weeks tit of the week is Tsunade! For sure she deserves the tit of the week because she is a well respected leader of the village as the 5th hokage and also her gigantic ass tits! Damn, besides Masamuto nobody could beat her gigantic tits. I applaud Masashi Kishimoto for creating such an awesome character. The first clip below is a video of how Tsunade got her body and the one after is just some thing i thought was enjoyable, so watch and be awe struck.

KP

Hey everyone! :] I am KP! Har har, however I think that repetitive initials are getting to be a giant pain in the arse, so I'll...
...

Just say Kuro? o_0ll

I was watching JP and PY make this site, and I noticed a few blind spots. Very obvious ones. I'll be the one posting up other relevant bits of information. (I won't be posting a lot, I think.. I'm just a friendly volunteer with a lot of time on her hands).

Manga for the female audiences as well as other manga from Shonen Jump, etc, etc; that were sorely missed will be put up. I may also post up art (that includes mine, I'm an artist), and anime related things. But don't expect much on anime, because most really disappoints me. Seriously.

So, for my very first topic on my very first post, :) I give you "Blood: The Last Vampire 2009." To give you my thoughts on it, I first, have to tell you about the original animated movie created in 2000, and it's alternate universe spin-off, "Blood+," (Pronounced BloodPLUS).



Blood: The Last Vampire the original is as good as any animated movie can get. It's only a mere 40 minutes long (due to the fact they weren't funded anymore, or what I've heard), but don't be so sure it'll be bad. The graphics are AMAZING. The scenes are smooth! Not to mention action packed fights where blood gushes and splurts everywhere, because a movie is not as great without some blood flowing!
You can watch it here in this link.
http://www.asian-horror-movies.com/tlv.php

In this movie, all Saya does is discover the hidden Chiropterans in a school, and it escalates to finding several more; which boils down to killing them all. She kills about... 3~7 Chiropterans? End movie. Like I said, they had to hurry up and finish the movie because of the funding, so there isn't much of plot revealed as much as we want. (Pardon my short and sour description.) However, the movie is still top-notch. Then again, that's all opinion coming from a true Blood fan. You have to see for yourself~!



Now, we come along to Blood+. Blood+ is also a satisfying anime, one on the short list of animes I actually enjoyed and loved. It was, like I said, an alternate universe Blood story, spinning off from the movie. In this anime, the only way to permanently kill a Chiropteran, is to inject them with the blood of a queen. (Queens can also kill each other) Queens, are the original Chiropterans. In every generation, there are two queens, born from one of the previous generation queen; and are female twins. Queens can create Chiropterans and those are called Chevaliers. They are stronger than regular Chiropterans, and are the only ones able to impregnate the queens (Did I mention it is a must; impregnating your Auntie? Don't sleep with your mothers, boy chevaliers You won't be the father. Incest in everyway, anyhow..o_0ll). When pregnant, a queen loses her blood's instant killing ability to Chiroptera. They also hibernate for long periods of time, and are only awake for several years, before they sleep again. ENOUGH OF THIS REPRODUCING STUFF ANYHOW >:O Fast forward to the story. Saya is a girl who has no memories of her past, and she is a queen. Eventually she remembers, and she kills Chiropterans with her sword (contains her blood). The antagonist is her sister, Diva. I'm getting tired here.. o_0ll



And so here we are at the Blood movie *pants*. What I'm trying to explain here, (with those stupid huge explanations above) is that this blood movie DOES NOT FIT NEITHER PLOTS! WTF!?!?!111//

To explain the Blood plot to the audience, they put in a character named Alice in there. I wouldn't mind the extra filler character.. But they put her in there so sloppily! She knows that Saya needs blood to survive?! She knows that the dreamland is not real?! She puts trust in a person she called a murderer in a split second?!

There are also..
*Hordes of Chiropterans.
*Randomly shoved in: Saya's mother.
*The white clothed lady is Divaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-WHAT THE HECK HER MOTHER?!
*Not so much struggle in the final battle...? Mothers don't struggle so much I guess.
*No sign of the term Chiropterans whatsoever!
*The point of the plot is confusing to the audience.
*Blood is rather thick..!? >:O Bad, bad, blood emulation!
*The Red Shield (The organization; the council, the group that supports Saya in both 2000 movie and the anime) is depicted as a rather antagonizing group.
*Fake, quick, overly flashy transformation of the Chiropterans. Don't copy Twilight. I don't want sparkly vampires.

-End of rant- Damn, that took a load of my precious life.

I'll be posting up other information in another post... I killed my firstie with spam :X

Drum Tips

In my drum lessons (where I'm teaching children), I usually start off with warmups. I don't really have a name for this one but I'll write out the sticking.

R R R R - R R R R - L L L L - L L L L

Basically eight strokes per each hand. Play this at a slow tempo and slowly begin picking up the tempo until you can go as fast as you can (without messing up). Then slow down gradually back to the beginning tempo, and repeat as desired. I usually just use this to get my wrists and forearms warmed up before practice or actual live performance.

Some nice videos I found on Youtube to add a little bit more flair into your playing style:


This guy is spicing up his sixteenth note fills by doubling up, or the double stroke whatever you want to call it. Sounds a lot better than regular sixteenth notes thats for sure.


In this video he's playing "Dirty Little Secret" by the All American Rejects, while showing where you can add some cool stick tricks. I guess stick tricks ups your showmanship, but only if you manage not to drop your stick!
