Um, SPOILERS.
If you haven’t seen, don’t read.
NOOOOOOOOOO! Archer! Archer bit the dust!
Dammit! I don’t rave much about anime anymore, especially not with male characters, but I have to make an exception for Archer.
The guy was cool. The guy was awesome. The guy was frickin’ amazing!!! Best male anime character ever! He didn’t even need to be androgynous to take the prize! Loved his hair, his outfit, his coat, the way he looks from the back, his voice (although he could stand some work on his Engrish), the way he kicked ass… And now he’s dead. *sigh*

Dear Archer, we will miss you.
In fact, Rin is so upset by your departure she’s wasted no time revving up the hawt girl-on-girl action with Saber :P

Everyone’s talking about this. It’s originally a game made by TYPE MOON, a doujin group who made it massively big with what many are saying is one of the most magnificently crafted games of its genre, Tsukihime.
I’m not into visual storybook games, they take time to play and reading takes a ton of concentration. You also have to identify with the main character, who, as far as most visual storybooks go, solves the story and gets the girl (well, one of ‘em anyway). Anyway I’m too lazy… still haven’t gotten far with Akai Ito.
Fate/stay night is getting made into an anime, and it’s highly anticipated within the “in the know” anime circles. Honestly I wouldn’t have had a clue if I wasn’t trawling blogs for Mai Otome analyses. What I’ve seen doesn’t terribly excite me, so I guess the actual game plot and execution must be subliminary.
What I do like, however, is Tohsaka Rin, one of the secondary characters. Damn, this girl is hot! Must be the long black hair and bad ass attitude. I played the demo and she was the main character in that. If the anime doesn’t satisfy my fix for 2006, I may have to start doing games.
