## Transcript

Hey everybody. I've decided to- like Jack, do vlogs but they'll be more like video journals and... but unlike he did- he tried to do on one day a week, but that didn't really work cause he didn't have much to mention. Okay so, what I'll do is do a video like this when there's actually something interesting to talk about. So this will be my first attempt to doing this.

Okay for those of you that don't know- and most of you don't- yesterday I finished watching an anime called *Strawberry Panic!*, which is a yuri anime and I actually really liked it. I think it was very well done. The only thing is for those of you who haven't seen it yet, just a word of warning: it's only a subbed anime, meaning it's only done in Japanese. There's no english dub for it. I think there are probably fan dubs, but other than that it's only subbed. Whether they are going to come up with a english dub for it, I'm not sure. What can I say about it that won't be- won't spoil it... I don't really want to give spoilers for it.

Yeah, so for those of that would like to watch it... What I will say is that as I mentioned it's a yuri anime, so female-female relationships and it's one of those with yuri as the central element, meaning it's the main focus of it and along with a bunch of others. Okay, I'll try to give a brief description of what happens in it without trying to spoil it. Basically, it stars a high school- I think it's a high school- girl named Nagisa Aoi- spelt like yaoi without the 'y'- who's going to what I'm pretty sure is a boarding school that's what I've been able to determine because she doesn't return home. It's at St. Miator- I'm not sure how to pronounce that really- academy and it basically has three schools in one St. Miator- I think it's pronounced- St. Lulim and Spica. That's what I got, I've only ever seen it through once, so I'm just trying to recall best I can. Anyways, she ends up in Miator and yeah, she does come in with a clean reputation but a lot of- let's just say a lot of stuff happens while she's there. Well I guess you'll just have to watch it yourself to see what happens, if you really want to find out. Yeah, so if you like yuri animes and you don't mind it being subs then yep go and check it out, I really recommend it.

Jack, if there's any small chance you see this then yeah I would- I recommend it cause I would like you to go watch it but I know how you prefer to watch anime in english dub. So do I, I prefer because it's much easier to watch. And if- if it's only in sub then yeah I'll watch it anyway. But still, if you get the time just give it a try. Just give it a try, at least the first- first episode. Maybe the first few. Just do- try and get a feel for it. It's 26 episodes so there's plenty of room, plenty of time for you to get to know the various characters, the various main ones anyway. Yeah, so I do- I would... yeah as I said I would highly recommend people going to check it out if they don't mind it being subbed only. Also, I will be checking out a couple more yuri animes if I find them. I know Wikipedia has a couple... of recommendations. But if anyone else knows any good yuri animes then just drop it down in the comment section and I'll check it out.

Anyways, asides from that, there's nothing else... other than the fact that if you notice on the shelf behind me, you'll notice I've got six of the *Lucky Star* FIGMAs. I'm currently only missing winter uniform Kagami who's proving a real bitch [in the ?] to find. [Akhtar ?] if you watch this then- if you're still watching this please, can you give me a hand. Where did you get your winter uniform Tsukasa, I'd really like to find her but everywhere I look says out of stock, which is pretty much the same thing. And yeah, I could really use some help finding her. And, the other one is summer uniform Miyuki, who will be- actually proved little trouble finding cause... yeah, she'll be [?] around, I don't think she'll be a problem, it's just winter uniform Tsukasa who's proving a problem-

Anyway, aside from adding to my slowly growing anime manga collection, I've got the first edition of *Lucky Star*, limited edition, I'll be trying to get hold of [six ?] but I'll need to get a- either a region free DVD player or find some program they let you remove the region coding so I can watch it. I've got the entire first season of an anime called *Samurai Girl:* reabout- *Real Bout*- sorry- *High School* which I've seen two of the disks, there's four of them so I think I've seen about half the seasons so far. And so far I- I think it's pretty good yeah, so far I think it's pretty good, yeah. I still haven't finished season one of *Mahoromantic* yet. I will try to get around to that. I also got Azumanga Daioh on DVD, which I've watched through and... and about a week or two ago I got the- I finally recieved the complete season of *Pani Poni Dash* in the mail, so yes another one. I've also got *School Rumble*, I'm not sure how many of you seen that, I think a couple of you might have. I got the first and I think the second disc as well, but I haven't gotten to watch it yet. Also I've got the first and third copies of the *Lucky Star* manga, I've just gotta find number two, and I've got the *Azumanga Daioh* Omnibus manga. Yeah, that's really about it in terms of anime manga-

So like I said, if there's anything that I- if I have anything interesting to talk about, like I've seen a new anime that I like then I might talk about a little bit or if I start getting more stuff it'll become slow because most things I have to order overseas and that is incredibly expensive. So don't expect this to be a- become every set day I'll really only be doing it when there's something [even ?] worth talking about. So yeah, at least I hope so.
