(no subject)

I really can't tell if I like Gravitation or not. I'm leaning toward no, since Shuichi is mostly acting like the typical "woman-with-a-penis" uke stereotype, and the relationship between him and Eiri seems to go from zero to hard-on in two seconds. Plus Eiri keeps waffling between wanting to hump kiss Shuichi and hating him for being an annoying brat, and I can't see how he's attracted to him. I'm more interested in Bad Luck than the actual relationship. But then, I've only seen the first four episodes. Hey, who's read the Gravitation manga? Does it go at the same pace or is the relationship developed slower? (And does Shuichi ever calm down and get less annoying?)

Meme time!

Thank goodness for YouTube.

I just spent the day watching eight episodes of the Taiwanese drama "Devil Beside You" on YouTube, because I'm way too impatient to wait for these torrents to finish downloading. I figure I'll keep the torrents, so I can watch them in one piece later and in better quality (hopefully with a better translation, too), and get as far as I can on YouTube. I think I can watch the first twelve episodes at the very least. The show's based on the manga "Akuma de Souro," or "The Devil Does Exist". It's not bad - not really remarkable, but not bad. The acting sucks a little, but then three of the main characters are supposed to be over the top so that's kind of forgivable. And the dad has a Doraemon apron! :3 It's really cute. I want one now. (I still can't believe Doraemon's supposed to be a robot cat.)

Cake tastes surprisingly good if you stick it in the freezer for a while.
