Well, if we're talking about the anime NGE is definitely better than Higurashi.  I guess NGE is more 'disturbing' than Higurashi but it's difficult for me to explain.

Okay, the Higurashi VNs can definitely get pretty emotional.  Neon Genesis Evangelion deals with its own issues though.  I can't compare it to Higurashi at all.

Anime theme songs, why are you so addicting? First, Tylor; then, Higurashi; now, I can't stop listening to the theme to Neon Genesis Evangelion.
If you mean Cruel Angel's Thesis, I just came out of the shower with its tune playing incessantly in my head. Need something... to make stop...
Oh gog I did in the shower too today.  Yeah I really enjoyed Neon Genesis Evangelion, it's one of my favorites definitely.  Although then again people compare it Madoka and I don't like Madoka at all...

Reading TWGOK because Toony has thus far seemed to have good taste. I declare it to be silly, and am currently enjoying what I've read thus far. Wondering if the scanlators got things wrong, because there are references to the evil spirit taking over the host and the evil spirit being reborn as the woman's child. The former doesn't jive with the whole "only girls" thing.
TWGOK is pretty awesome.  I didn't like the first few volumes as much as the later ones though.  Chapter 174 just came out a few days ago.  I started reading it because /a/ kept talking about it so there's my secret location.

Keima is the best.  :3

Blegh, extra maths class today, which is optional except it's not because I'd lose my EMA if I didn't go to it.
I wouldn't mind so much, but I've already got distinction criteria for our maths unit, so I'm going to sit in the class doing nothing, and rather than being home at 1 I'm not going to get home until 6.
Getting home late sucks.  I've been getting home at 10pm this whole week, blaaaarg

Playing Ghost Trick, and I find this ridiculous part. (theres text missing between them, but I can only get so many decent pictures of a DS game thats on a DS, so I just went from the silly part. I'm the ghost in the globe-on-a-sword.)

I'm officially dropping my classes for this semester tonight. Going to be taking the spring off because my whole family agrees that I'm not really into classes this year. No point in going if I'm just gonna fall apart a month or two from now. Plans are had for helping my sister up in New York for most of the time, so my computer access is gonna be limited. Still, first chance to spend months away from home. Longest I spent previously was last summer when I went to Europe for a month.
Have fun or else.  You'll become an alchemist eventually.

Apparently they're doing a gritty reboot of Devil May Cry.  Why?  Of all the series to completely change, why Devil May Cry?
Knowing Capcom, they'll probably release it as a first person shooter or something.
Knowing Capcom, it will be released for a gimmicky system and stay Japan-only forever.

Okay I finished both.  The end of Carnival Phantasm was fine, although a 4th season would be cooooooool.  Taiga Taiga Taigaaaa

Anyway, what totally took me by surprise though was Fate/prototype.

Two words

IT WAS AMAZING

Seriously holy crap a shit shit shit.  I would watch/read/play the hell out of whatever Fate/prototype would become.  I know people criticize Type-Moon for repeatedly pumping out Fate/stuff but I would not mind Fate/prototype AT ALL  I can't believe Nasu wrote something that could easily be better than Fate/stay night first argh.

Also, guess who's in Fate/prototype?
Spoiler: the fucking Grail Tracer that's who (click to show/hide)
Oh my gog

GRAIL TRACER GRAIL TRACER GRAIL TRACER

EDIT:
Okay apparently he's really Perseus.  That's still cooooool.  His voice actor does Light, Ling, and Okabe.  Yessss

One of my friends really wants me to watch High School of the Dead, while another of my friends had warned me against it. It looks pretty terrible. Any redeeming qualities?
NOPE
No seriously don't do it.

EDIT:
UTW released Carnival Phantasm 12 and Fate/prototype!  Yay.  :]

Liam O' Brien is probably my favorite English voice actor besides David Hayter.
And whoever the hell does Ladd Russo, just daaaamn
Oh and whoever does Dan whats-his-face in the Trapped games.  I love that guy.  Or Doug Stone, or Mike Dawson, or Silver the Hedgehog arrrrrrgh

EDIT:
Oh, since I'm really lacking VN intake now (it's why I'm looking around everywhere) I think I finally found a suitable one.

I downloaded the 11eyes trial yesterday and finished the first day (September 16th) which was alright.  The prologue was interesting and I am really happy the game uses overlay text most of the time.  I just love my overlay text.  Although interestingly it DOES switch between overlay text or bottom box depending on whether you're talking to somebody or not.  Which is pretty interesting.  I think my only problem right now is the art is pretty funky but you can't ask for too much.  The music is pretty good.
Spoiler: September 16th screen caps (click to show/hide)
The CrossVision mechanic also looks interesting as hell.  I wonder how that will play out.  Although to be honest I still have no idea what this is all about really.

Oh whatever...I wish I had more time for stuff.

Current Activities
Anime - Serial Experiments Lain
Manga - Battle Royale
Visual Novel - 11eyes
Light Novel - The Dissociation of Suzumiya Haruhi

I didn't like Saya no Uta, Ever17, or Sharin no Kuni that much.  A few others I played for just a few minutes and I couldn't get by that for being too Dating Sim-ish (Yume whatever the hell).  If you're looking for something mainly Dating Sim-like (since Kawata Shoujo is basically one) there are a ton of those but I'm a bad person to come for that...

On the other hand, if you like more actual story arc type plots try out pretty much everything by 07th Expansion and Type-Moon.

I would mention Chunsoft, Nitro+, and 5pb. as well but I haven't done as much for them, heh.  I guess there's Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate but everybody just watches the anime.  Also a lot is untranslated argh

OH AND TAEMGRISGRIS

TeamGrisGris is gooood.

Ok guys I think I'm ready to accept that I live in a time period OTHER than 1999.
What is Tumblr and how does it work?
It's Homestuck usually.

Nah, there are just a bunch of tags and people who follow certain tags will see certain stuff.  It's like Reddit or any kind of user submitted social-fest.

I will go even deeper further and say that it bothers me about all the people who feel averted because of people saying "it's so complicated" and they act so 'smart' because they understood it their first time when it essence it's a fucking film which are never even that THOUGHT-PROVOKING anyway.
