The Dreamscape pt. 2

The Dreamscape pt. 2

Can you feel the icy wind? 

Against the barrister 

And the jarring motion 

Of cold teeth 

The chattering 

Of pots and pans 

Along with moaning 

Across the wooden floors 

Or the misted air 

Warming the inside of the pane 

As if to say 

You don’t need your mittens 

To hold a sweet portion 

Against the salty air…

The Dreamscape

The Dreamscape

There is a world of dreams

Where everything is not as it seems

In the recesses of a night’s repose

Unfulfilled thoughts open as your, conscious is closed

Does it make sense?

What you’ve always meant

You (only) know as much as you feel

There’s (alot) genius in what we (see) experience is real

Those images and sounds that you can’t comprehend

Are products of your own mental ends

Stories more intricate

And characters counterfeit

A setting almost too perfectly drawn

All part of your being (self) of dawn

Find Your Dreamscape!

Otaku Talk by RPGHero

Why do otaku love animals, cute characters, stylish clothing, sweet foods, and cool accessories?

Animals are naturally cute and cool. They have marble-like eyes that see very well and they're really comfortable and reliable as friends. If they let you lean on them or be their resting companion, you will gain a familiar for life. That, and their personality is always unique. Us otaku love and cherish our unique personalities as positive and creative forces in the Universe.

Why would a cute character be appealing to a grown man or... to the average otaku? Usually Otaku ARE NOT grown men. Most strong guys always say, "I wish I could be an otaku for life" if they were an actual otaku before they grew up... Cherish your days to watch anime, it's pretty cool in the anime world!

Who would say that they actually like anime?  POV --> Otaku.

???

Cute characters are the main characters, or they would be cuter still as villains. Villians make the cutest cute characters, right? :D

 Not chibi, because any character can be turned into a chibi with little or no effort from a skilled manga artist. Chibi means a very short pudgy rep of a usually different character in an anime. Villians are not chibi when you first meet them and that goes for any main character. 

That and girl anime characters are NOT chibi but can be drawn into a chibi mode! :O

And a cute character is a idealist model of the chibi style but usually as the star of the show and main character for*ever.

If you're not a cute character, you might be a minion, or even one of the Strawhat pirates but not Luffy. Sorry about the random One Piece reference, characteristic of RPGhero the blogger!

Style is key to shoujo life! Matching colors and being the best possible individual is the goal of life and anime, right? Some anime characters don't have fashion sense but they have a unique style, usually they're shounen chars. But shoujo anime have such style and fashion sense that no shounen anime could match...


Boys and girl's characters alike in shoujo are always dressed to impress, even in the most unusual of plot-lines.

Shounen is stylish too, the clothing is unique. And remember, the key here never leave home without a smile. Most shounen heroes smile no matter what is happening to them in the present moment. They know they're gonna win!

Maybe the Tensai Shoujo Girl and the Ultimate Shounen Hero have a chance to finally take over the real world.

Echoes by Universe

Listen to it! Listen to it!
..The "you" and the "you" that you really want to be..

»English Lyrics«

Translation Echoes

Even if my words are to lose meaning
Even if my heart is to lose its place to belong
Even if I am to lose my voice
You know, I will always be here.. singing
Echo on from here.. to the far and beyond..

In the restful night that broke apart with the resonation in your ears
You reach your hand out to the halo of the crescent moon

You, still entangled by the chaos back then
Have been chasing a vague future ever since
Even though, your hand could grasp but empty air

Listen to it.. Listen to it..
The melody that was weaved from our encounters
Listen to me.. Listen to me..
I'll sing it for you

My little voice that's still so faint..
.. Will one day immensely resonate, you know
I sing 'our song' to fill the void in my heart since our accidental encounter
(I sing) For "you" and the "you" that you really want to be

As light starts to drown your eyes and the world begins to turn
Let the mask that your timid heart hides behind be softly cast aside to yesterday
(... listen to it.. listen to it.. listen to it.. listen to me.. listen to me...)

Listen to it.. Listen to it..
The melody that gently shakes you awake
Listen to me.. Listen to me..
I'll sing it for you

Repeating the song you loved the best over and over..
Do you remember me humming it along?
The dazzling song shining out of your pure eyes like a piece of art
I'll convey it now through my singing

Even though my words, along the flow of time..
Will eventually fade away someday, but still..
To link many many hearts together, 'our song' will echo
The "you" and the "you" that you really want to be..
(... listen to me.. listen to me ... Listen to it.. Listen to it...)

Looking for the Twilight Zone in Anime??

Konbanwa fellow otaku. RPGHero here, reporting from... The Twilight Zone.

Just kidding haha.

I know there are many many of us out there who are fans of science fiction. This is a weird world we live in, however only weird in a bad way. But the stories of science fiction are strangely different, like the remedy. How many of you have played Chrono Cross?

and liked the feeling of being a teenager who traveled to his own parallel universe and fixed the distortion to boot?

Well we all like our share of science fiction... Just think about all of the science fiction based titles out there.

There's "Full Metal Alchemist"

Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood is an awesome series and there are many elements of science fiction within. In the new Brotherhood series they are still dealing with alchemy and a philosopher's stone that can do any alchemy. However all of the Humunculi come from an entity that decided it wanted to become a perfect existence. Definitely sci-fi masterpiece worthy.

Then "Chobits"

One big thing about the future is the possibility of humanoid robots that will begin to have emotions. This is the theme of chobits!

If you like Chobits then you'll like "Time of Eve"

Time of Eve is like Chobits but the emotional intelligence needed to watch and comprehend the plot is alittle bit higher. For older viewers only because prejudice is more of a theme mixed in with the humanoid robot theory.

If you haven't watched "Akira" you should either watch it now or stop being a serious anime fan

Akira is a sci fi movie with different themes, basically ESP and a futuristic setting. This is definitely for older audiences because of the graphic and darker quality of the plot. But it is an anime masterpiece and is acclaimed by the industry and by otaku at large!

Two words "Cowboy Bebop"

If Akira is a masterpiece than Cowboy Bebop is in the same league if not higher! Sci fi? Yes, Futuristic. Want to visit Mars and see the skyline at night? Look no further. This show is one for everyone's personal collection. Definitely buy it because every show involves themes that every educated otaku can take to heart!

Other titles you must check out are "Ghost in a Shell", "Paprika", "Code Geass", "Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, and "Final Fantasy Spirits Within", etc.
