Crisis Core and Skip Beat 18 reviews

well, once again, Skip Beat! has left me speechless with the progression of the storyline in book 18. lolz! i shall state this once again...NAKAMURA-SENSEI OWNS! lolz! well, for the benefit of Taicho, i shall review Crisis Core first, wait later u accuse me of spoilers =x lolz~~~

now, on to Crisis Core! XD this is arguably the first Final Fantasy game that i've fallen for so badly =x well, Final Fantasy X/X2 kept me busy for jus a while, but i never really liked them...(mainly coz the main character is...a girl?) lolz~ also, i had a major grudge against turn-based RPGs then, coz they jus took darn long to conclude =x (sorry to all turn-based fans out there...). now that Crisis Core utilizes real-time battle system, and the fact that it bears resemblance to Star Ocean, it rocks! lolz! the gameplay is addictive, the main character is cute and the fact that his eng voice actor is bearable makes the game a great one ^^ not forgetting the appearance of many familiar FFVII faces and bishies, this game does deserve it's 9.5/10 rating XD

the only grievance i have with Crisis Core is this. now, tell me, do the protagonists of RPGs die? no they don't. Cloud doesnt die, Tidus doesnt die, Yuuna doesnt die, heck, even Fayt from Star Ocean, Chris/Hugo/Geddoe from Suikoden and most of the RPG main characters i noe of DONT die...even in Anime and Manga, the main character is usually left with a few minor scratches etc...so why in the world did Zack die...*tears hair out* pffft. he died to save Cloud...zzz... well, not that it's a surprise, seeing as he appeared only as a phantom throughout the rest of the FFVII compilation series...but then again...it feels so...unfair that he has to die, especially during the game itself, in which he turns out to be a rather cute character who matures over time >< wad a waste...pffffft. and to think he was killed by low ranked-unskilled-useless-unknown Shinra soldiers...*mumbles in a corner* now, on to the review of Skip Beat 18! taicho, time to look away ^^

well, it is revealed that the guy Kyoko's been sent to look over is Ren's DAD! zomg. bishie father, uber bishie son!!! lolz! the guys is unbelievably young-looking...his son is already 20, and he still looks 20 himself =X lolz! Nakamura-sensei has a thing for old guys looking young (refer to Tokyo Crazy Paradise). come to think of it...Ren looks...older than his dad...*raises eyebrows* lolz...the only thing about book 18 is that it centers around Kyoko's interaction with Ren's dad (still dunno his name) and hence limiting the screen time Ren and Sho have (T_T). although for Sho, he has this reaaaaaaaaaaaally bishie picture...that's worth looking at over and over and over and over again ^^ he has obviously improved from his past image...now he looks more like an angel...*stares at picture* whatever happened to his bad-boy image?! lolz! well, overall comments for the book. 1. Sho is prettier now. 2. Kyoko's becoming cuter. 3. Ren's dad is enuf bishie power for one book, so Ren can take a break for now. (for now and now only) =x 4. a little too wordy, but well, it goes to show that Skip Beat isnt ur regular shallow romance manga. XD 5. Ren's dad is darn cute ^^

and that's all for now...lolz i cant really give a good review at this point, mainly coz i'm still swimming in my fangirlness over Skip Beat ^^ chao~
