So it's been a while since I went digging...

And found some really fun stuff over at Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou's official page.

As of this moment though, it's not shown. At least, publicly anyways. I came across pictures of both Yuri and Bouchirou, at the time of this post the profiles of both of these characters were not made public.


Ok Marvelous, what's the deal? I know I have this running hatred against your constant use of Flash across most of your special webpages, but you didn't have to leave your files unlocked like that. I mean.... too easy. I used tactics from more than 3 years ago, and you mean to tell me things haven't changed since then? I didn't even have to raid directories... Wow...

Anyways, putting that aside, amusingly enough their character profiles are pretty much blank, Yuri has a similar description like Eiko in that besides the name, there's just a one-liner description. Bouzo on the other hand, has a blank description, aside from name. Oh well.... fun times.

(I uploaded low Q files, in case this is my exclusive lol... maybe in one week's time HQ versions will be uploaded or if Marvelous unlocks them first)

Second Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou 4koma

So... I know it's late, but wowser am I tired. Anyways, here it is, round 2 of my Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou 4koma.


So, a teleporting Soga Keena... I'd like to see that. Or should I now say I did see that? Episode 08 ruined the surprise!

 This is why I was waiting for episode 07 to air, so I can confirm if Keena's invisibility is mana based. Which we see it is, so that confirmed my earlier suspicion that she can use invis while flying. As if it wasn't so hilarious enough, episode 08 confirmed that she can fly while invisible o_o;

2 weeks ago I had this thought, why doesn't she fly while invisible? Given that she can fly quite fast, she can give the illusion of teleportation, by simply going invisible, flying to a spot close by, re-appear, invis again and rinse and repeat. Now I don't know what's more of a surprise, that I knew she was going to fly invisibly naked, or that she really can o__O*



I guess to elevate the wait for this 4koma to come out, I figured I'd share with everyone how I do things. You can check it out here: How the mangatron draws his 4koma

Low Level test of mechanics


This is a low level test of my template's core.

A look back at my blog's poll history

Well, it's been awhile since I did a poll, odd since I have a new layout since then, and in honor of my newest one, let's look back at what it's been like in poll land.

The end of my fansub translation days

What do you think of mangatron's decision about translating?
mangatron! You betrayed us! Anime will never be the same without you!
Rest well, old friend.
By not translating, you disgrace all the anime girls you love.
You're lying.








  
Free polls from Pollhost.com
This one is probably the best one. I believe this was the one I created about 3 years ago when real life required me to give it its full attention, thereby ending my wonderful stint as a fansub translator. I believe my last finalized job was AQS-Anime's Otome-wa Boku ni Koishiteru (sp?) episode 13. It was shortly after that when I was personally asked by the head of AQS to continue my great effort of the To Heart 2 OVA series, when life took over midway of my patented translation method via a smartphone. Fun times indeed...



Recommend me!

Which shows should mangatron make his top priority to view?
Lovely Complex. Tall girl eats little guy. Great stuff.
Sola. Missing an "r", but hey, that's anime. And it has pretty girls.
MSLN StrikerS. Aren't you a lolicon, mangatron? Surely you jest.





  
Free polls from Pollhost.com
This one was a strange one. Normally, I'm just one to watch every series that airs. But I thought how funny it would be to see what others think about my viewing habits. I think the poll results speak for themselves lol (remember, this was about 4 years ago! I'm a different person now! XD)

How does it look now?


So what do you think of the new layout?
Good! More anime girls!
Ah! My eyes! Bring back old one!
Make it better ;)


  
Free polls from Pollhost.com
This poll could actually be counted as still ongoing, as it would seem I forgot to take it out when my blog got the new layout some time last year. Due to blogger's new changes I was forced to change the layout, which I actually did quite like because I manually edited most of it's layout, images and all. It also had a really nice banner of the ADULT FATE TESTAROSSA. That's right, the grown up Feito-chan. Take that, you... people who call me lolitron! XD

Money!

Does Adbux.org pay up?
Yes! Give me the money. My Paypal email is....
No! They originated from Egypt using a Pyramid Scheme!
Never heard of it. I'm like a caveman, shut out from the world.

  
Free polls from Pollhost.com

This was about 3 years ago, after spending a few minutes at that site for about a month, I had some money in my Paypal account. So of course, being the jolly, folly, human being that I am, I decided to share my good fortune. Which I ended up giving it to my older brother ;)

So, that appears to be all of what I've polled so far. You can still vote on them, apparently, if you think I should re-watch MSLN StrikerS 100 times over or if you think I'm still secretly translating fansubs under a different name ;)

How does something happen...

I would say because of physics, due to the inevitable, but what does
my blog have to do with travel: (top result as of today)

http://flightsone.com/location/Japan/Teruya/113078/Blogs/

Sure, I'd like to be the guy responsible for someone who travels to
Teruya, Japan, all because of a certain anime character I'm fond of.
Sounds like a good idea for traveling to Japan!

Immigrations: "What is the purpose of your visit?"
Traveler: "I saw a guy raving about an anime character and so I
decided to visit!"

>_>

May 08 part 2

So, May 08, a day I always celebrate. Both with my country and
personal reasons. Although I don't recall posting about this before,
so I'm kind of at a loss of words.

Some thing I seem to have the words for:

--On this day every year it's been a tradition of mine to fire up Feel
the Magic XY/XX and The Rub Rabbits.
--Yet again my Feel the Magic cart is becoming more and more
unreadable (cleaned a bit with isopropyl alcohol). Easily my oldest
cart (launch title!)
--I don't really play these 2 games much other than for this time of
year (yes it's odd). What's even more odd I'm getting more and more
rusty.

DS Fat: 1 for 2, lost one mini game in FtM and won one in Rabbits.
DS Lite (White): 0 for 2, lost one mini game each from FtM and
Rabbits.(bad 1st production touchscreen)
DS Lite (JP): 1 for 6, lost 1 FtM mini game and 1 for 5 Rabbits "Eyes"
mini game.

I went 2 for 10. Wow. Those games seem to never get old (other than
FtM being unreadable as more and more years go by).

Part1 and part2 sent from my Treo750

Introducing the start of my Ichiban Ushiro no Dai maou 4koma

 

So, on this special day for me, May 08, after last week's sickness, I
resumed my original plan: a compilation of Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou
4Koma manga poking fun at the Anime series currently airing.
My IUDM 4Koma's primarily poke fun at questions, plot holes, or pretty
much anything I can think of that coulda-shoulda-woulda happened. To
start it off, Fujiko and her missed opportunity in episode 02.
--This was entirely drawn on my Windows Mobile 6.5 HP iPAQ hx2415 with
Pocket Artist 3.3
--My device has a screen resolution of 240x320, with 35MB available RAM.
--Photoshop was only used to line up the panels and add the text. (not
enough device RAM for full completion)
--This follows the same method I used for my previous 4Koma project,
Luminous Arc 2 ~After Story~ (currently postponed indefinitely due to
health issues)
I should note that should I continue these is up in the air. I
currently paused 2 FAQs I was writing for the DS to do this 4koma. I
may be unable to continue due to acts of god, acts of mother nature,
acts of war, etc...
Hopefully I will continue to churn out some more.

Teruya Eiko in Iron Man 2

So I'm sitting at my computer table, going through the recent
animesuki forum posts for Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou on my phone, and
I'm thinking about Teruya Eiko again (do I ever stop thinking about
her? ;), and I was wondering where in the world did I see it before,
in live action to boot.

And so I went through all the trailers I have for movies this year,
and fired up the Iron Man 2 Trailer #2 and there it is, Scarlett
Johansson does something similar to a Teruya Eiko Leg Wrap. From the
scene it doesn't look like she completely wrapped him, but... the
guy's reaction say's "It @#@$*#!kin hurts!".

The trailer can be seen at http://davestrailerpage.co.uk , listed
under "I", "Trailer 2". Personally I find that the best place for
trailers in a no-nonsense website.

Yet another Dai maou photoshop

Here we go again. This was too easy. Although, with a cold and general
lack of sleep, there's no fun facts this time around.

I also forgot to mention why I considered my previous Dai Maou
photoshop my best, I actually meant my best of my animation frame
edits. I don't think anything can beat my Tamaki Kousaka photoshop in
terms of capacity and pure waste of time XD

The real harem polaroid of Sai Akuto

Ladies and gentlemen, I present the true harem of Sai Akuto.

Fun facts:

--Probably my most perfect photoshop yet.
--Total lack of Eiko pictures has me say "probably". Darn it I need
one with her in uniform. That nude shot was the best I can find with
95% of her body showing.
--Took a total of 1 Hour 22 minutes.
--I consider this my best photoshop due to the systematic erasure of
Hiroshi as well as the re-coloring of Eiko in such a low amount of
time.
--All that on a single core, 1.6 Ghz 768MB RAM laptop.
--Special thanks to LG, or rather me for fixing my LG trackball mouse,
and HP/Synaptics for their awesome multi-touch drivers enabling all
Synaptics Trackpads, new and old, for multi-touch.

This has been another maniacal display of Eiko affection of the mangatron.
