Translation Notes: Out of both of these songs, Kagerou was the hardest to translate. Mainly because once again as with all Japanese? It makes perfect sense in Japanese, but putting it into English with the proper feeling is hard.

Hello guild members, this is Aeglos on LJ. There have been a lot of questions and concerns brought up recently about the guild. Since there isn't proper communication I'm going to sum up what happened here.

Title: Present for The Doctor
Raiting: G/K+
Spoilers: None. Set after Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks
Summary: Martha Jones is looking forward to visiting the world of Barcelona - where dogs have no noses. However the Doctor takes a small detour and visits an old friend in Denver, Colorado. Martha is suprised to find who joins the TARDIS crew: a small and furry creature.

( “Like I said something small that doesn’t require a lot of work to pick up after. Cats are great for that, aren’t they?” )

Translation Notes: This suprisingly was harder to translate than the .hack//G.U. Vol 3 theme song, mainly because of how they changed the tenses of the words and how the sentances were put together. But wow, knowing how the story of the second .hack//G.U. game, it fits perfectly. Damn. Also, as opposed to the .hack//G.U. Vol 3 theme, I used "we" instead of "I", since the second installment is a revelation to all of the characters - not just Haseo.

Translation Notes: This is one of the more difficult songs, simply because with most Japanese, the idea makes since nativly, but getting the same idea in English is hard. "Me o tojite NIGHT GROWING" would, litterally mean: "Close your eyes, night growing"."Futari kata wo yoseau" was also difficult because futari (二人) means "two people". So on and so forth.

This city will never end
Go and open the window and begin to walk
If you do this, then you'll surely find more rainbows
Surely...

Always value the small dream that you paint in the sky
If you do this, then you'll surely be happy

Translation Notes: This is one of my favorite Japanese/Anime songs ever. Aa! Megami-sama: Sorezore no Tsubasa transaltes to Ah! My Goddess: Everyone Has Wings. Many lines (ex. Maasugu anata wo omoi utau watashi no koe ga) were tricky to place into English, but I think it worked out.

Hey guys!

So, I have 10 hour work days with almost nothing to do until the stuff shows up. So what do I do in the mean time? Simple: I draw or read.

Though, I am running out of things to draw. Amazing isn't it?!

This is where this comes in. If you have people, a scene, a comic, or just a picture from blight_lake you'd like me to draw, go ahead and leave a comment! Some guidelines, not much hehe:

Name the character(s), genre (horror? funny? angst?), setting

Please provide references of what said character(s) look like, unless you know I know them

Tell me if you want just an outline, a shaded picture, or a colored picture (color will be done at home till I get a laptop ghack)

Deadline?

Comics: Tell me the basic idea, genre, and if you want spefic things done or said

OMG NON PROFIT (*hides from the mods*)

Let me know if it's alright to post in my DA, if not I'll find a way to send it to you :)

OMG HAVE AT IT!

And the next summary for .hack//ROOTS for Michael, aand anyone else who really cares on the friends list. This time I HOPE to have screenshots of you know what's really important in the episode, HAR.

( Comparison between Lu Perry/Za Warudo subs here )

So then, this would be the third essay I have written in my journal. What really set this whole thing ablaze was a post showed to me by a good friend of mine in a LiveJournal community. So, we shall get started~!

Spoilers for: Final Fantasy 7 through X-2, and Kingdom Hearts series.

Enjoy!

Here's my unprofessioanl review of Tomb Raider Legend: Demo, produced by Eidos and Crystal Dynamics.

I, like many old school Tomb Raider fans were suprised by the annoucement from Eidos about a new Tomb Raider game. I groaned at the thought. The last game that had been released for the Tomb Raider franchise was Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness, and that isn't even concidered to be a Tomb Raider game on two facts: 1) There are no tombs to raid, B) There is another optional player, the hell? Lara never works with anyone like that.

So while I struggled with the idea, I learned that Eidos had fired Core. Now, for some backstory: Core was the group that worked with Eidos for all the Tomb Raider games. However Core was starting to use Lara to promote their other games (see Angel of Darkness), and Eidos fired them. Now I had never heard of this Crystal Dynamics group and was very spectical, until I saw the promotional artwork.

Wow.

Not only does Lara look truely realistic for the first time, but the scenery is drop dead amazing. Lara doesn't carry all her items in a backpack of pocket space - no instead you can see all the items on her backpack straps, belts, ect. Crystal Dynamics truely did their research to make a game that the fans wanted to play. And oh wow does it deliver.

The TRL Demo starts off in Bolivia, the first level of the game. Lara is scaling a mountain top, where her partner Zip is holding a conversation over her wireless headset. Zip makes a comment that Lara puprosely left her climbing gear behind. Not only is this a step in the direction of Tomb Raider fandom where we see Lara working with someone (and not shooting them), but also the graphics! As she is climbing you can see the sweat, it's just simply mind blowing. Oh - and for once we actually get to see Lara's lips move when she talks, instead of bobbing her head about like some weird thing.

The demo walks you through the controls as you come across the trails. Legend is like its predessesors where there are several ways to go, and you have to find the right one to take to continue the storyline. The controls are now split between the keyboard and mouse, which is a small downside for the old school Tomb Raider fans, because it is hard to adjust - especially when there are several buttons due to Lara's massive amount of gear. Two additions to Lara's gear are the PDA and the headset.

In addition to the old skills Lara has that carried over, you get several new ones. Lara can now swing herself around poles/large branches to jump forward. The jumping techinique from one platform to another has been added onto with the "E" key feature, making it so you cna grab safely onto another ledge and not have to do the jump over again. Flares have been eliminated and you now have a battery-run light sorce on your backpack. The "Crawl" feature is now named "Sneak", which in itself is funny. Lara will now run in the way the camera is pointed, and the camera is directed by the mouse.

I want to know who did the music for this, because it is simply beautiful. It has the classic mystical feel that the first game's music had, complete with vocals from men and women that sing in an unknown language. You can find the music to download on any big Tomb Raider fansite, and I recomend you download the theme. It's gorgeous.

Graphic details are amazing. Lara will dry herself after she gets out of the water, in which you can see the water slide from her hair and skin. She will also do several things while you are standing around attempting to figure out where to go next. She will stretch, tie her shoes, pull her gloves on tighter, and several more. You can also see the dirt on her elbows after you've been playing around for a while. The reflection of light shows in her eyes as you move the camera around. The scenery is amazing, details even down to the carving of langauges in the ruins - and yes, for once, metalic/golden doors ARE shiny!

Legend pulls the fans back into the realm of Tomb Raider, the original premise that was lost somewhere after the third installment of the franchise. Lara's two new sidekicks: Zip and Alister make for good comedy and can even be useful at several points, which is an improvement from all the other people Lara worked with ...and pretty much ended up killing off (see the first Tomb Raider game). Lara also travels all around the world this game: from Peru to Japan (which both places can be seen in the first two games). Old enemies surface from the original games as well!

I rate the Tomb Raider Legend demo a 9/10. Great music, sound effects, characters and even the automatic draw into the storyline grab you all at once as the opening movie starts. However switching from the old Tomb Raider games to the new Legends system is difficult. Another reason to rate this down is that if you don't meet basic requirements of the game, you have to miss out on all the shining details when you turn them all off, which I had to do. Cry.

Tomb Raider Legend will be released April 2006 on PC, PS2, XBox/360. The game is rated 12+, so please don't buy it for your young teen.
