No.

Arabasta and Skypia were much too long.  Much much too long.  I would say it starts getting better when the Water 7 saga starts.  Although that fact that Oda based the Skypia villain after Eminem is pretty awesome.

Homestuck would be cool.

Except for the, you know, whole world being destroyed and all.

So?  We're making these suggestions because we won't be living in the 'normal' universe anyway.  Your family and friends will be gone.

They have a class just for semiconductors?  Haha.

Hmmm.  Time to put some more thought in this.

Series that take place in effectively the real world I don't count unless there's something extra special about them so that strange events happen or just generally the types of characters themselves.

Well let's the obvious out of the way first.

Ace Attorney would be pretty cool.  As long as you're not being the one murdered having to solve absolutely insane cases or in a twist...having to cover yourself up as the murderer.  Man, that's a good idea.  They should make a backwards Ace Attorney game that involves you being the murderer or whatever and you have the escape the clutches of the court.  I think the main problem would be open-ended-ness though so oh well.
When They Cry would be torturous and dangerous but also sounds pretty exciting.  There's not too many settings yet (like two) but I'm sure there will be more.  Deadly but thrilling?
The Nasuverse would be just death.  I'd want to go but I'd probably die within a day or two.  It's just too dangerous.  Oh well.
Pokemon would be relaxing.  If I wanted to relax somewhere it's Pokemon.  It's not even to be a Pokemon master I just like that nobody there will murder me.
Dexter would be too normal so nay on that.  Detective Conan would also be too normal for my liking, and also possibly death!  Being a detective wouldn't be fun either because KONAN-KUN would just solve everything.
Neon Genesis Evangelion would be a bit scary.  If I wasn't a mecha pilot I would crap my pants in a shelter and if I was a pilot I would crap my pants in the cockpit.  There's no alternative.  I'd be mind raped and killed faster than you can say TANG.
Raildex-verse would be fun.  It's a pretty normal life usually but there's magicians and espers everwhere.  I could be like, telepahtic or something hopefully and see crazy shit happening too without myself dying.
Haruhi Suzumiya would be interesting a fair bit.  Although I can imagine a lot of days being completely ordinary too.
Heir Trilogy would be okay I guess.  Kind of magical and stuff but otherwise nah.
Warrior Cats or whatever the hell would be a no.  I don't want to be a cat and being a person wouldn't be anything either.
Kaiji, Code Geass, Death Note, Liar Game are all good fun and all but I'd want a break every once in a while.  If I really was a person there with one life then no no no I'd break for real.

I can't really see that many being too too notable.  There's a lot of fictional universes out there and most of what I've seen if fairly small barring a few exceptions.  I'd prefer to see more of it before handing my opinion out.  Any fantasy epic setting is out too because I don't want that and there wouldn't be any computers usually.

Yeah I've been stuck in EoE for awhile now in the manga.  That's where I caught up.

In other news, new Railgun chapter today.

Fuck yeah


EDIT:
Why yes

EDITX2:
Aaaaaaaand that's volume 2 of Fate/zero.  That was pretty good.  I quite enjoyed a few parts.  Volume 3 appears to be like 60 pages shorter...uh oh.  Also the -XXX:XX:XX is the time counting down right?  From what I'm seeing it goes hours:minutes:seconds so say -123:23:56 would be 123 hours, 23 minutes, and 56 seconds until the war is over?

Oh boy.

EDITX3:
Breaking the fourth wall with style.

The Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai OP is pretty ridiculous, woah.  I might try to watch the anime later if I have the time to.  There was a new manga chapter today but I haven't even read that, let alone Btooom's new chapter today.  I only read Railgun's.  ;_;

Freakin' EDITX4:
I watched the first episode of Haganai because why not.  It was fine.  Also read all the manga chapters I previously couldn't finish yesterday.

But more importantly.

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

That was awesome.  The adaption is kind of skimming along now but Caster and Ryunosuke were great.  I wish they were all 50 minutes.  ;_;

Since I started going to college, about three or four times so far, I found myself suddenly short of breath while on campus.  Like one of my inhales will fail to do anything and I'll feel lightheaded for a second.  It's worrying.  I also feel like somebody is stabbing my heart but it's infrequent enough and only happens on campus that I chalk it up as my social stress level being too high as well.  It's bothersome for me to constantly socialize with others.  On some days I find myself speaking to multiple strangers for not too brief periods of time!

I have a pre-lab due for tomorrow but I am unable to understand it.  It's short enough that I should be able to finish it during the twenty minute speech before lab while she explains it, or even while I wait for the sign-in line.  However, this leads to a larger and also much more important subject.

Calculus and Chemistry.  Out of my six classes these ones are hitting me the hardest.  Computer science?  Fine.  Engineering?  Easy-peasy.  FYE?  Unnecessary but easy enough.  Spanish?  Doing pretty swell.  The fact that my two most difficult courses are also the ones I should be doing my best in is worrying.

I know my bounds.  I know that I'm not a good student so I don't give any complaints and do the best I can.  I'll study in the library and spend whole days on campus.

But then again...why?  Why am I even going to college?  Everything there is a challenge to me, why would I want to go out into public and watch myself struggle?

I think it's because I want to challenge myself.  I don't want to be a reclusive hermit who melts away...but then again I kind of do.  I don't want to do this.  I want to do what I enjoy and while I sometimes enjoy my time in class or on campus I can not say it isn't difficult for my body and mind.

There are good moments but I find most of my time to be very...pointless.  Meaningless.  I haven't been given the time to think for seven weeks so when I finally give myself a moment to look at my situation I come to the conclusion that everything I'm doing now is just to fucking put stress and pressure on my mind and body.  Why do I do this?  I don't know.  My conclusions are just best logical guesses with what I have and what I understand and use.

I don't want grades to bother me, but, in Chemistry say I probably have about a C or C-.  Calculus would be a D+ if I'm lucky. (all the rest are either Bs or As)  To enter the School of Engineering I need at least a 2.7GPA which is a B- I think.  Since Chemistry and Calculus are such high credit courses they weigh a lot more too.  I can't just get a D or C.  I need at least a B- and it's fucking difficult.

And I have to pass Calculus I to get into Calculus II, which I need for major.

On the good side though, I've always found myself a slow to learn but easy to understand afterwards.  The main negative to this nice quality though is that professors don't stay on the same material for longer than a class.  I try to study out of class but I'm not getting any nice results at all.  This was the same for shop during high school too.  I always did pretty poorly on the first test but the proceeding tests were very well.  Because either the tests are spread out very far or cover material very quickly I am unable to keep up with my jam packed courses this semester.

My only hope now is not to quit and just do better.  Mas y mas bien.  I don't know.

Certainly, playing a game for hours upon hours on your one free day this week wasn't the brightest move ever Toony.

Help me.  ;_;

Hey guys, how do you like my Halloween costume?  Can you still tell it's me?
