4th stage of northern d20 

(Listening to TEMA 1 from Gunslinger Girl soundtrack as I write this)

Initial D! 4th stage is coming out in Japan eventually - starting in April. However, from the animenation site I picked up this tidbit of information about its release schedule:
Initial D 4th stage release schedule
EWW!! It's almost as bad as the Urda release schedule. In case you don't want to bother clicking on it, they will release 2 episodes every 2 months, until April 2005, when it will release the final episodes 13 and 14. Eww!! It's going to be a pretty long wait between episodes... ahhhh. Oh well. I'll have plenty of other anime to keep me occupied. Speaking of which...

Anime North! May 21st to 23rd, $30/person for group price. I was talking to Amy (Andy's friend) this afternoon and she wanted opinions on her cosplay costume, and things lead to things so I decided to go to Anime North. Eric's buying the ticket for me, and David's already going, and after talking with Wen, he decided to go as well, so it shall be a fun trip. Now gotta find enough money for the dealer's room... well, I have enough, but how it fits in my budget, I'm not sure.

Lastly, d20. The group has displayed interest in fighting some aliens and stuff, so I will have to modify my story a bit. Also, Duy and etc said there will be 2 games a week, on average, or at least 1 game a week. This term, it was about 1 game every 2 weeks, so the pace has to be changed slightly. I'll probably cut up the story into 3 acts, with each act kinda severely different from the others.

I think the first game should be may 8th. Saturday may 8th. Jia has displayed interest in guest playing (I think he's a ninja that throws daggers and uses claws or something, or a monk or something), but he wants to be a werewolf. And Andy might play too. He's going to Vietnam for all of June, so he'll be with us for some of the first few missions, perhaps.

First game, Saturday may 8th. I guess this will be one of the longer days, since everyone who hasn't made a character officially yet, will have to make one, and this will take a long time, so come early on May 8th.

I was also thinking of having a laptop at each session, so I can provide videoclips and music and soundclips as necessary. We won't have music for most of the game, because it gets bothersome while trying to roleplay, I suppose - but music and video to introduce missions would be pretty cool. Maybe boss music as well. Some atmospheric mood music here and there... maybe if you enter a club, there'll be dance music... ya know... yeah, atmospheric music...

(still listening to TEMA 1 - now listening to TEMA 4)

downloading a mech anime now. BitTorrent's taking forever today, not sure why. Downloading Sailor moon live 26 too ^_^. Hehe. Can't explain my love for the show... If it's not for the story, it must be for the characters. Wondering what's gonna happen to Sailor Mercury, Ami-chan.

Jubei Chan 2 recently ended. It was great. Should have that at an anime-a-thon this summer.

Anyway, update long enough for now. Alan said he'd update tonight, but he hasn't yet. Bum.
