Episode 1-26 Briefing

Warning: the following parts contain heavy spoilers. Read at your own risks.*^_^*
Story telling and details are based on Japanese version only. The story interpretation is solely from Nameless.

EP 1 "Kiru!" (斬る!)--Cut Throat

It opens with a peaceful scene of farm girl and boy sitting in the middle of green paddy fields.  A sudden appearance of Nobuseri brings shadow to the smile of a  farmer who checks his rice.

The camera shifts to the battleground where airships, floating fortress, robot soldiers and samurais fight in a blood shedding world. Kambei gives his order to Shichiroji of last blow to the enemy flagship and an attempt to break through the surrounding in order to save his soldiers as many as possible...

In Kanna village (Kanna means "No gods" or "where gods left"), people are praying for water maiden Kirara to locate their new source of water for irrigation. At the village meeting, a bold decision is made: to hire Samurai who are hungry, provide them rice, ask for their protection against the upcoming marauding from the Harvesting Fortress of Nobuseri. Kirara, accompanied by Rikichi, carrying all the rice of Kanna, starts their journey to search for Samurais who are willing to wave their swords for civilians.

Dragon Crisis: Critic

Opinions expressed in this post toward Dragon Crisis anime is all from Nameless's personal peer.

Dragon Crisis finished its 12 episodes anime version by end of March, 2011. Based on a light novel of Kaya Kizaki, this Studio DEEN anime production is nothing but disappointing.

Ryūji Kisaragi,the hero, is a high school student with high profile parents in the profession of Lost Precious--relics from ancient times that usually are embodied with extreme strong power. The meeting of his cousin Eriko begets a reunion of Ryūji and the Red Dragon Rose. Other dragon species and several more pieces of Lost Precious involved later did not make the anime better.

Elona: Free Roguelike RPG

This post if for informative purpose. Opinions on Elona in this post are from the personal views of Nameless, not those of the game developer.

Eternal League of Nefia--Elona is a free roguelike RPG developed by Noa since 2006.  It is available in both Japanese and English. Can run in Windows XP, Vista and Win 7.

General information:
*Start from designing your character, from race, class to every detail of appearance, similar to what we do in RPG maker, the player will travel in Irva, a land that is affected by Etherwind. There are many towns, cities, dungeons and vast land of wildness for players to explore, hunt monsters, harvest crops or elements, dig metal and ores, and collect rare equipment.

*Quests are posted in every town or from random encounters. They are limitless and will generate every day, ranking from simple ones to hard ones indicated by coloured stars. The character's fame will influence the difficulty of the quests generated.

*Time management is important in Elona as all quests have time limit. Time elapses 10 times faster when travelling in wildness.  Many quests involve travelling to other towns.

*Termination of the character is not the end. You can pull a dead character up at the cost of loosing some of the attributes or abilities and money. You can also let the poor character be buried and delete his/her life.

Gosick: Gothic Lolita Detective

Please be advised this post is for informative purpose only. It is kept free of spoilers to its best except some basic introduction of the two main characters.

Gosick anime, based on a homonymous light novel written by Kazuki Sakuraba, started its airing in January 2011. It is also available on manga version.

A detective story setting in fictional Sauville (I would see it as "France") after WWI, the Gothic Lolita Heroine named Victorica de Blois is "prisoned" in the highest tower of the library at St. Marguerite Academy. Kujo Kazuya, a Japanese young man from a traditional military family line enters the Academy in Spring and is nicknamed as the "Azrael of Spring"(Haru no Shinikami). To put it simple, this is a story of a simple-minded brave "Azrael" meets a mysterious golden fairy.
