I had discovered the series of "Pantsu to Saru" (Underwear & Monkey) Minecraft videos on Nico Nico Douga back in August, but haven't really bothered to share it with others, so here I am doing just that!

This video here is the first one of their second Minecraft video series, detailing their adventures exploring a mountain region. The intro to this video, no matter how many times I watch it, is just hilarious as hell. XDDD

Those who got accounts at Nico Nico Douga can see it. Links to the playlists for this series as well as the previous one (the Island edition) can be found in the video description.

Taishou and Kino (Pantsu and Saru respectively) have in the last months started a new Minecraft series where they go to the Twilight Forest (黄泉の森) and that one has been just as fun to watch. ^__^

I'm gonna post this even though there's probably more to talk about. I doubt I'll be adding onto it afterwards though.　Enjoy!

...And I think I'll leave it at that!　Here's Maiji's con report for other stories and musings.

Last night, I was reading Fairy Tail, and came across this sentence:

３年前・・・オレは言ったハズだぞっ！そんなくだらない本の仕事をしたら絶対後悔するって！

I had seen the word 後悔 before many times in other places, but never quite understood what it meant. I had looked it up in J-J dictionaries, but the definitions didn't really help me figure it out that well.

However this time around, it finally clicked in my mind. That word means 'regret'! I did a quick check with my チャレンジ小学国語辞典 dictionary and the definition finally made sense! やったー！ \(^o^)/ I guess I actually took the time to examine the kanji in the word this time, so that's probably what helped contribute to this breakthrough, not to mention the context it was spoken in.

Yay, another stubborn word finally decoded! XD

My buttons came in the mail today!



Although the Mega Man ones turned out slightly darker than I would've liked, they're all still pretty nice looking!

Hope they go over well at AN! ^__^

It's been a long time coming, but it was more or less inevitable.

Today as I was in the middle of colouring a button design, my tablet began acting up. It at first messed up the relationship between drawing area and computer screen, acting more like a mouse, so there'd be no way of drawing accurately. So unplug and replug the tablet I did.

Things went back to normal... for a time. Next thing was that the tablet simply stopping responding to the drawing pen. Although I tried unplugging and plugging it back in, this time it stayed unresponsive.

So it's safe to assume it's dead now. TT_TT;

We have a few more tablets around the house, but it's just a matter of actually finding them... XD So I should be back to drawing and colouring sooner rather than later, thankfully. :D

It's hard to believe I've had this tablet for nine years...!

Something I've been working on for the past few days!

Remember the grayscale version I posted last year? Well, I finally coloured it yesterday.

Doing colouring this way, by glazing over a grayscale image, was somewhat unexplored territory for me, but I really like how the results turned out. I just gotta make sure that when I go to get it printed for AN, that it doesn't get printed too dark; it's dark enough as it is!

A larger version can be found at my deviantART account. It'd be nice to get a DD for this. :D

I don't know how it happens every year, but I yet again lucked out with the lottery and got myself a Comic Market table! \(^o^)/

So I got my lottery number at 5 in the morning for the Comic Market (though I went to sleep long before that). I'm not too surprised. I've been in the lottery plenty of times before and had managed somehow to get a table those times, so I'll keep the faith that things will come my way this time too. :D

I'd just like to let you all know that I've posted some of my comics to my deviantART gallery. I've posted Supercell and the first part of my D.Gray-man doujin Cardsharp.

This is a bit of an experiment to see whether doing this will help generate more online sales for my doujin. I'm not particularly concerned about selling my Supercell books (I think I've sold enough of those to pay off the printing costs) so I posted the entire comic up. I'm more concerned with Cardsharp since I've got a whole lot more copies lying around not doing very much.

So please feel free to read them! And perhaps give your thoughts as well.
