"Atlus USA has confirmed the PSP remake of Megami Ibunroku Persona for US release in Fall 2009."

Oh yes!!!

"There are so many things that conjure up emotions...
The softness of dirt in spring...
Clouds in the Summer sky...
The smell of the autumn wind...
The sound of raindrops on a silk umbrella...
The chill of the air way home from school...
The scent of the chalkboard eraser...
The sound of distant truck driving away in the night...
Or a sate and comfortable feel of a convenience store late at night...

I just wanted to share all those feelings with you...
For the rest of my life." -Intro of the manga adaption of Hoshi no Koe

Oh man, Hoshi no Koe is just...sad.

Many thanks to everyone, it's still kinda hard to believe that I actually hit 1,000 page views! Admittedly, it may not be something "big" for some other great Deviants, but it has really motivated me, and once again, thank you.

Cleansing poster paints are arguable the most tedious thing to do, especially when the ration is running low and you can't risk it scooping out too much, adding pure water makes it to blend with other dabbed colors, especially white, and very taintable color. I really need to pick up CG lessons. T_T

My friend often asks me why not CG? Why not step out the old shell and welcome the 2000? Well, to quote my man Daisuke Ishiwatari:

"There are lots of reasons, but the number one reason is that I want those works to be the only ones in the world. Also, I want to draw in a situation where failures aren't effective. For example, in response to a situation where I end up painting the wrong color by mistake and it's beyond repair, the thought of having the spirit to start over and fix it, of adding a novel color from there and trying somehow to make it better, and there still being something left to play with, is personally more fun for me. I put aside whether it is good or bad, and have the feeling that the pictures flow easily out of the mental part of myself, and if I lose the original I also want to be able to say "It's gone" with regret (laughs)."

God, that has got to be the most randomest things I've said in my journal.

I've heard alot Nobuo worshipers who constantly bashes other Final Fantasy musics composed other than him, and especially pre-VII zombie fanboys pisses me off, I really pity Hitoshi Sakimoto, a great talent, obviously those who bashes him does not know the true meaning of Final Fantasy his Archades theme rules.

But then again, I'm more into Daisuke Ishiwatari's music, I really liked his style, and finally, Guilty Gear 2: Overture introduced me to Yoshihiro Kusano and Hiromi Mizutani. I have to damit, Keep Yourself Alive III was quite a disappointment, but Be Just or Be Dead flows somewhat better, and Diva is really nice. The intro musics are done quite well too, I really liked the opera-esque musics, such as Metamorphosis and Silent Wrath (played during Valentine's transformation into a Gear) and finally, Dignity, a great piece of Music.

You have to admit, after listening to Nobuo's musics for ages, you'll eventually vomit or getting your ears bleed once you heard another piece of Final Fantasy's soundtrack.
