Looks like I haven’t written anything since a few weeks. Why? I don’t know to be honest. Maybe because I was hiding from Christians and their Christmas crap or because nothing interesting and blog able happened lately. (And no, K-ON season 2 isn’t worth mentioning. There are more qualified series, deserving another season out there. K-ON is just a moe blob, fanservice anime. It’s way to overhyped.)

I was quite inactive on the blogosphere lately, for several reasons I will discuss in 2010 for sure. Sorry for that.

Now on to the topic:

As some of you might know… my bandwidth sucks big time. Until now that is. The chaps from Telekom Austria finally noticed that I would need more speed here in the middle of nowhere in the Austrian countryside. And as soon as it became available I ordered:

The AON Super Kombi!

• 30Mbit down, 3Mbit up
• AON TV + HD package (with a movie library ~300 movies available atm)
• Phone of course

Delicious boxes get! Thompson VDSL router, splitter, AON Mediabox, Ruckus Media Acess Point.

Already got Mio yesterday from Hobbysearch thanks to EMS shipping. She is nearly sold out everywhere unless you are willing to spend 8000 Yen. O_O

Didn’t come up with a Nendo-Story this time cause I was busy fraging random folks @ Modern Warfare 2 ährm… studying Kanji.

(Sorry for the bad image quality but if you are willing to donate 500-600€ for a new camera feel free to do so. ^^;)

Mio on stage!

Did you ever think about moe-ficating your smartphone? I did when I saw this Evangelion iPhone case lately somewhere on the interwebs. Being still fascinated by Evangelion 2.0 I couldn’t resist and ordered the Rei version. The only shop still having a few in stock was Strapya World. Haven’t heard about that shop before but looked quite solid and they didn’t disappoint me. The small package arrived here in less than two weeks, which is really good for SAL shipping.

Yup, although Danny is busier than usual over in Singapore at the moment @ AFA and such he send me an mail yesterday. Looks like there’s a bug causing all that weird stuff with my account and some of his mods are MacFags. So, Danny cares about his users… sometimes.

So I wasn’t banned. Good to hear that.

What I said about the look and feel of DC.com lately is still true cause it’s a fact that can’t be denied. I might still lurk over @ figure.fm sometimes.

Yeah, my blog roll is finally up to date!

Until now my blogroll was basically a copy & pasted link list from my old blog.

Revamped it a little bit as you can see here. It’s now displaying blogs ordered by their latest update together with the title of last published post.

Should work without problems but feel free to add any suggestions below.

Most probably I forgot to add some blogs so please add the following details in a comment below if you want to see your blog featured in my blogroll:

• Blog name
• Blog URL
• A short description or tagline
• RSS feed URL

It’s now two days after watching Evangelion 2.0 in Munich and time for a few words.

Note: I’d like to keep this post mostly spoiler free, as it would be a really cruel thing considering the plot of the movie.

Starting off with a battle between EVA 05 (Provisional Unit), piloted by Mari Illustrious Makinami fighting against the third angel. (It’s hard to recall the first few minutes, cause if you aren’t used to watch anime in a cinema it’s just too overwhelming at the beginning.)

This initiating battle scene is actually representative for the direction of the whole movie, as you notice that it is much more than a rebuild of the original series.
