As we have mentioned before, the return of Code Geass shows itself with the title, “Code Geass R2.” The title of episode one should speak for itself, since from the past Lelouch’s memory was replaced with a false one.

The Garden Of Sinners - Theatrical Feature 1: Fukan Fukei the anime theatrical series was something that I came across by accident, but intrigued me, so I thought I’d share it with our viewers. The first chapture, ‘Fukan Fukei,’ was made 2007, but the series itself is from a story from the internet. Getting into the gritty details.
Brush up on what you can expect from this anime is the many uses of metaphors. They’re non-stop, from use of a dream or a direct literal use. For those who don’t want to go ahead and look up the meaning, “Fukan Fukei,’ it means, “A view from above.” Another used of metaphors that are expressed visually through the beginning credits. A weary butterfly following an energetic dragonfly.
As they can use these symbolical images, or messages some might start to ponder if this anime is combined with action, fantasy, supernatural, or fable. It is. This is but one of a few of their episodes.

Kidou Senshi (Mobile Suit) Gundam SEED Destiny: Rengou vs. Z.A.F.T. II Plus is a game for the Playstation 2 currently only available in the NTSC-J format (meaning Japanese only). It is a pure action/arcade style game that captivates the essence of Gundam Seed Destiny from its mecha to its characters. It has full voice acting, lots of mechas, familiar characters like Shinn, Kira, Athrun, and Mwu and a lot more.
I’ve played the game a good deal and let me tell you, it’s nearly on par with A.C.E. 2 & 3 with its action segments. The controls are fluid and the combat is easy to understand even for someone who knows nothing of Japanese. The battle system does take a few things to understand though. There is 1,000 points per battle with each suit costing a certain amount of points on its death. When you run out of points you lose the battle. You lose points by losing suits. So if you go into a battle with a grunt suit that loses 200 points on death then you’ll have 5 lives. If you go in with say Infinite Justice that costs 590 points then. Well you have two lives. You start with one unit and if you die you’ll have 490 points left. If you die again you’ll fall below 0 which is good game. CPU units will also take from your battle guage but only half the points of the unit.
