I finally turn in my paper and my skull's cracked open.

RP LOVE MEME

Please fill this out. Okay, maybe you don't have to, but I'd appreciate it. I feel absolutely sick right now. My head hurts so much.

It's lucky how I hate to be taken seriously~ :o

Long story short, the past weeks of college have been HELL. I was knocked out all yesterday due to pulling an all-nighter to finishing my Lolita paper. Now I want to think absolutely nothing about work at all. I just want to unscramble myself by going out and watching movies and read. I went out and finished the last two chapters of Coraline, which makes me happy happy happy. Before that, I read the entirety of the Manaphy movie manga-adaptation, and this is my verdict: the Darkrai manga is better. :P The Darkrai manga by Ryo Takamisaki is cute and adorable, but with Makoto Mizobuchi's Manaphy manga, it's just... meh. :/ I feel like I'm missing something, like I don't know these characters at all. Plus Mizobuchi draws real wonky a lot: at the panel where Manaphy hatches, May's spine stretches and bends like bubblegum. The whole plot feels disorganized and Heart Swap never gets put to good use; why can't Manaphy just Heart-Swap the villain with either Ash or May? For someone who was supposed to play such a huge role for Manaphy, May did nothing. She was helpless as a sitting duck. What's the point of her being there then?

TAKAMISAKI HAD HEART. MIZOBUCHI DIDN'T. DDD:

I'm only keeping this manga because at least Mizobuchi draws a cute Manaphy. I love Jackie even if he's practically a block of wood, he probably shines better in the movie. But gah. I have a feeling I'll dislike the movie as much as the manga. @.@ What's with cool Pokemon characters that keep sticking themselves in horrible PokeMovies? REBBECCA. JACKIE. LEAVE THIS PLACE. COME TO PURIVERSE WITH MEEEEEEEEEEE.

I have a wooden spoon award to give. You see, when I hear of a villain named "Phantom", I'm expecting something along the lines of this. Assimilating it to fit in the Pokemon Universe, we'd end up with something like this. But no! We get this. LAME.

How the HELL does that relate to "Phantom"!? We're given no explanation whatsoever. Talk about a misnomer! He looks more like Lord Crump from Paper Mario 2 than a fucking shadow pirate for chrissakes. (And no, he doesn't have the "Buh huh huh huh!" laugh either) Maybe he looks more like Lord Grodus but still, Grodus is more hardcore than so-called "Phantom" could ever dream of being.

WORST POKEMOVIE VILLAIN EVER. Why? BECAUSE HE WON'T FUCKING DIE. SERIOUSLY. STOP IT. GIVE IT UP. YOU LOST SO DROP IT. WE'RE SICK OF YOU. GO DROWN YOU OBNOXIOUS CAP'N CRUNCH WANNABE. GOD. *blasts Randy Newman's "I'm Dead (But I Don't Know It)"* Jesus Christ the sooner we end the Manaphy manga the better. Likely a billion times worse in the movie. I'm disappointed Ash & Gang didn't meet an awesome skeleton captain like Cortez inside the Temple of the Sea. D:

Pfft, who cares about that Manaphy adaptation? Before I finished reading the manga, I've been polishing the backstory of MY Manaphy, Chaos. I even drew a picture! Wanna see when I color it? :D

I recently watched Iron Giant, so now I'm gonna shower and reacquaint myself with Disney's Hercules when I'm done.
