I Dreamed...

Yesterday, I dreamed that I was in a colorful place. A VERY colorful place. Which looked almost like a theme park. Incidently, it looked very Willy-Wonka-ish, minus the chocolate lake. And I was wearing a pair of very comfy shoes. Yes, the shoe part is important.

And so, I started down the colorful colorful road. While walking, a small little guy stole one of my shoes and ran away. I needed my shoe back, so I chased him.

Chasing him down the road, suddenly, I stopped in front of a metal gate with him on the other side. Strangely, my sister and a third person (who I did not recognize) was there too. I shouted at Short Dude throught the gate to give me back my shoe. He said he'll give me back as soon as I did his puzzle. To which, I agreed to, coz apparently I really wanted my shoe back.

Then, an old man wearing a wizard cloak appears next to Short Dude. With a grin, he duplicates himself (ftw?) and asks me to find the "real" him. My sister, next to me, protests. And I did too. "You two look completely the same!!" said we. Old Dude keeps saying how so damned easy it was but really, he and his duplicate looked exactly the same.

After a lot of shouting and protesting, Fuuma (of all characters I could dream of) appears next to Old Dude and asks if I would like another question. And I said "Another question is good." So he gave me another question.

Which was, "Why doesn't Sorata have a kid?"

To which my first reaction was "Teh what?" 0,o

But I answered anyway. My sister said "Because he didn't want to?" And I said "Because its irrevelant to the plot?"

And Fuuma just grins and doesn't answer, his smile changing from 'nice guy', to 'evil smirk', to 'nice guy' again, everytime I look at it.

Suddenly, unusualy-quiet Third Person spoke up. He looked at me, then said "Hey~Why do you talk like Nadleh," points to my sister, "but you don't?"

And then I woke up.

Ftw, self? I didn't even get the right answer. Wish I could've kept the dream longer and Fuuma would've hurried up and answered. Yes, I really am curious at the question in my dream. Nyaha.

Y'know? It would be really funny if this was one of those 'crossing into other people's dreamscape' dreams. And I wish it was.

CLAMP MUTUALITY ARTBOOK RELEASED

The new CLAMP x Code Geass Artbook, Mutaulity is released today!!!

And, I guessed wrong... Apparently 'the hand' was Suzaku's.

Rawr, waiting for a high res scan of this. And also for some kind soul to scan it *-*

News from Clamp_Now and the Code Geass Community.

Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE Chpater 206

Aaaah!!! Tsubsasa chapter 206 has been finally released!!!

The newest frontpage for the manga. Its a bit...nostalgic, really to look at these front pages. Because lately, the front pages of TRC are all of happier times...
Its been a while, since everyone was this happy....


Yes, inspirational line by Faye.

^Ahaha...haha... "Go settle things with yourself" hahahaha....8D

Ooi.....I always crack up during Syaoran-'Syaoran' moments. Guess I won't be able to stop laughing if I ever have a clone. lol

But still, Syaoran-'syaoran' moments are kinda cool.

^ KURO-DADDY!!! Oh, Faye....its been a while since the 'TRC family' thing happened. I miss it...

^ Ahaha, "Kuro-sama"... Welcome back, old-happy-smiling-name-calling-Faye~

^Oh yea, kinda forgot that Faye has Kamui's blood is a vampire now. Haha, and I still thought those wave-y things were magic...

^Seeing this makes me miss Kamuithe vampire twins.... *sniff*

And then, CLAMP ends this chapter with THE cliffhanger:

Damn, thought we'll be able to see Syaoran vs 'Syaoran' in this chapter. No vampire twins either in this chapter haiz...

They'd better come soon. CLAMP please finish their story arc at least before Tsubasa ends....

NEW OVA!! TSUBASA SHUNRAIKI!!!!

It's a little late for me to post this, I know, (considering since this is practically already ALL OVER the internet by now)but, I just HAD to. And if I don't post it, something will be nagging in my head for a very, VERY long time.

Anyway, TO ALL TSUBASA FANS WHO DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS YET!!! Especially you, Teng, wanna let you know bout this,*waves* THIS POST IS JUST FOR YA!!!!

Main point...yea....getting there..here.... THE NEW TSUBASA OAD

TSUBASA SHUNRAIKI x XXXHOLIC SHUNMUKI

Yes~ The much awaited (at least, for a few of us) kinda-sequeal to Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations. It'll take on the Nihon Arc. But they skipped the Celes Arc and the Infinity Arc....*whines*

Now, hopefully, they will be more loyal to the manga storyline. Remember the last episode of TR? FTW CCS Sakura? And what happened to Fuuma-Yuuko and Fuuma-Subaru-Kamui interaction?? That was because it didn't follow the manga storyline faithfully enough.

Now, heres hoping that Shunraiki will follow the manga storyline. Because it has Seishirou-Fuuma brotherly moments, Seishirou vs Syaoran, SYAORAN VS SYAORAN FTW XD Fuuma and Tomoyo's discussion about older siblings (lol), a 5 second glimpse of the Vampire Twins, and the "Truth REVEALED" when Clone!Sakura confesses to Clone!Syaoran.

Oo gawd... EPIC...
That is, if they follow tha manga storyline...

Release date for the first of four episodes is February 17 2009. Haiz...and so the agonizing wait begins...

I'm really exicited, can you tell? :D

I need a new computer : SOLUTION

So I nagged to told my dad about my limited amount of storage space in this inferior lovely computer of mine.

Dad said that he has a spare drive worth at least 30G. And he can give it to me if I want.

30G, its not much, but I guess it'll last....

OK DAD~ I'LL TAKE DAT DRIVE PLZ THNX :3

Now, I'll just have to wait for him to install it. For now, half my file is moving to his computer hehehe...

I need a new computer...

Oo. My. Gawd....

The D drive of my computer is running out of storage space. C drive is halfway full too... And I've got stuff to download dammit...

I seriously need a new comp. Or just put in a couple more drives.

Arrgh....I NEED a new computer... =A=

Do. Not. Plagriarise. CLAMP's. Artwork.

Spotted at Mizuiro-kun's Livejournal. http://mizuiro-kun.livejournal.com
Being the CLAMP fan, I just HAD to take those pics and rant about them too.

Double-u Tee Eef....What is these people's problems? Did they expect to get away with this with, what, more than half a million CLAMP fans worldwide in every single country?

This futher fuels my reason to dislike and be disgusted at all things Taiwanese. Yay me...
All Original Works by CLAMP.

^Left: Original [Kobato] Right: plagiarised pic
Dude, even if you DO wanna copy other work's poses, at LEAST change a bit of the style or something. Note the EXACT SAME concept: girl with stuffed toy, hat, butterfly on the finger and flowery background. Of course, Kobato and Ioriogyi-san look waaaaaay better than whoever-that-is with the teddy bear. [I will not comment on poses]

^Left: Original [Kobato] Right: plagiarised
Once again, note the EXACT SAME concept and design. Heck, the moron even used the same color combination.

^ Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [Kobato]

Once again, EXACT SAME concept. AND color combination. The dress even looks the same. No, changing the basket into a flower basket DOES NOT work. Its still plagiarising.

^Left: Original [Kobato] Right: plagiarised pic

EXACT SAME bg, dress, and shoes. Even the bag and the stuffed animal holding her hat.

^Ok, fine. This one can be forgiven. I'll pretend the artist wants to use the pose. FINE...

^Left: Original [Chobits] Right: plagiarised pic

And no, adding flowers doesn't make it a different picture, you dolt (whoever you are).

^Left: Original [Chobits] Right:plagiarised pic

Ugh. No. Why oo why can't that person use his/her OWN CREATIVITY and AT LEAST change the theme or something. But noo... Exact same pink theme, blonde girl hugging two pink stuffed animals. Of course, Chii does it better.

^ this one's not so bad. At least the artists had the commonsense to change the clothes, hair, expression etc.AT LEAST...

^ Left: Original [Chobits] Right: plagiarised pics

Note the exact same hand placement and shawl in the plagiarised. And flower theme too, in the case of the first one.

^Left: Original [Chobits] Right: plagiarised pic

Same bird. Tree. Bird. Did I say the bird? The bird seems to love Chii more though.

^Left: Original [Chobits] Right: plagiarised pic

Exact same bg, dress and shoes. Honestly though, I have no idea why did those people even try, coz CLAMP does it sooo much better.

^Left : Original [crossover, Chii and Kamui] Right: plagiarised pic

Oo, a pic involving Kamui. Now its personal. Exact same bubble blowing theme, bubble blowers and guy's expression. BUT KAMUI IS MUCH MUCH MORE ADORABLE!!! Puh-lese, unknown fella, you do NOT suit 'cute but "awesomely cool"'.

^Left: Original [Clover] Right : plagiarised pic

Exact same birdcage theme, suit-and-dress pairing (and may I note that the suit is almost the same?) and mechanical wings. And those mechanical wings are pratically exact replicas. UNCREATIVE BITCH!!

^Right: Original [Clover]

This one may be forgiven for the commonsense-ness. Still, exact same bg.

^Right: Original [Clover]
Once again, may be forgiven for the artist's commonsense in changing the dead flowers into live ones. But they're still the same species...

^Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [Clover]

Actually, I dunno what to think of this. But still. Same wingspan, expression and dress.

^Left: Original : [Miyuki-chan in Wonderland] Right: plagiarised pic

Ohoho, now this is something OBVIOUSLY plagiarised. Note the exact same SEIIRA-FUKU, falling from the sky action and the bunnies. ESPECIALLY THE BUNNIES!! Coz if you look closer, you'll notice that they are EXACT REPLICAS.

^Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [Cardcaptor Sakura]

Note the exact same birds, dress and curtains. And if the plagiarised version wasn't b/w, I bet you it'll also have the same pink theme.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pic

And then they dare to copy one of THE MOST FAMED CHARACTER OF CLAMP. Seriously, these people need to get their commonsenses checked. Note the same watery bg, clothes, underwater theme and the flowers. Even the placement of the flowers are EXACTLY THE SAME.

^Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]

C'mon, don't tell me you don't notice the STRIKING RESEMBLENCE thar... Same thing, replacing feathers with pink flowers DOes NOT make it a different pic.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pic

Note the EXACT SAME bats-flying bg, blonde "more mature"dude and kid theme, and also designs on the jacket. SHOOT HIM SYAORAN!! YOU HAVE A GUN!! Anyway, Syaoran's are more fabulous.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pic

Note EXACT SAME gardening theme, blonde with shota theme and flowers. And do I see the EXACT SAME shoes over thar?

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pics

NO, unknown dudes, you are NOT Syaoran. And this pic, by far, is one of the well known Tsubasa ones out there, so the artist is just asking for it if the fans come to eat them up.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pics

Notice the same childhood friends feel. And the birds. Exact replicas I tellya. AT LEAST they didn't copy the clothes though. But the shawl is probably the dead giveaway.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle]

This one may be forgiven, on the account of commonsense.

^Left: Original [Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle] Right: plagiarised pic

Meido theme is fairly common, fine, but you could at least change the cup into a cake and the cake into tarts could you artist???

^Left : Original [Clamp no Kiseki, Clover] Right: plagiarised pic

Note the exact same pose, dress and wings.

^Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [CLAMP no Kiseki, X/1999]

*snorts* "Demon Principle"? Puh-leeze....Fuuma looks more the demon here.

Note the EXACT SAME regal theme and pose.

^Left: Original [X/1999] Right: plagiarised pic

Aah, now this is where it gets personal. I do realise that its X pics from hereon.

NOTE THE EXACT SAME FEATHERS BG!!!! And unknown dude, you're ugly. Kamui's waaaaaay prettier than you. XP

^Left: Original [X/1999] Right: plagiarised pic

1st note, Yuzuriha and Kamui are NOT cannon. They're just equally adorable.

Anyway, note the EXACT SAME "reading manga starring me" theme, uniform with armbands and bg. BTW, WHITE SPRINKLED DOTS ARE CLAMP'S TRADEMARK. GET YOUR OWN TRADEMARK, ARTIST!!

^Left : Original [X/1999] Right: plagiarised pic

EXACT SAME "Angel bride" theme. Although I don't really like Kotori, she still works the angel bride thing better. So thar, unknown girl!!

^ Left: plagiarised pic Right: Original [X/1999]

EXACT SAME leaning-against-something-its-cool pose and BIRDS!! Gawd, this must be the hundredth time with the birds already. Again, they're EXACT REPLICAS. And Kamui works the pose, the look (and the cloak) better than you, unknown dude.

^ Left: Original [X/1999] Right: plagiarised pic Now, as I've mentioned before, I don't really like Kotori. But this is my favourite picture of her. And note the EXACT SAME hairstyle, dress, flowers (even the placement) and "chain of pearls" theme.

Thanks to Mizuiro-kun for finding these pics thereby giving me something to rant on.
