Ahahaha. This question is so blamed on Candy for bringing it up in convo.

candy__chan: ...here's a question: who came first? Tuxedo Mask or Kaitou Kid?
jeva_chan: ...
jeva_chan: ow
candy__chan: *runs to Wikipedia*
jeva_chan: why you gotta hurt my brain with that question
candy__chan: XDD
jeva_chan: I'll lolz if Kid came first
candy__chan: I'm looking it up.
candy__chan: If Kid came first...then it's backwards.
jeva_chan: aahahaha
candy__chan: Kid was created a LONG time ago, though--he was created before Detective Conan and Yaiba both. And Conan has been running for...thirteen years?
jeva_chan: woooooooow
jeva_chan: our fandoms are SOOLD
candy__chan: ...oh my god...
candy__chan: Are you ready for this?
jeva_chan: ....

( THE ANSWER REVEALED )

AND THERE YOU HAVE IT.

Omg, guys. Our fandoms are soold. *facepalming all over the place, whut*
.

Yeah, today's been pretty good. Went to my classes. Got to finish up on Marie de France's works which we will be tested on on Tuesday in Foreign Lang. We talked boring things in Sociology--though I did object to one theory mentioned by some dude that my professor brought up. Lower-class people do not squash creativity, thanks very much. We're very vibrant and lively people even if we're tired a lot, thanks very much. We also don't "conform" so much as we listen to the people in charge and know when to keep our mouths shut, thanks very much.

... yeah, basically they said that upper-class people are taught to be creative and diverse and whatnot while lower-class people conform and stifle creativity. I cried bullshit (just in nicer terms) and had some people agree with me that upper-class people tend to be scarily conforming--LOOK AT SUBURBIA. AREN'T THE ALMOST-THE-SAME-HOUSES AND LAWNS AND SIDEWALKS PROOF ENOUGH? Also, upper-class people are taught to speak their mind and be independent. Lower-class people are taught to keep their mouths shut and channel their own thoughts through more subtle means and also listen to when we're told to do something.

For the most part.

Yeah, I only was a bit miffed. :/ Calling my family uncreative because we're lower-class is utter bull and I had to protest.

Besides all of that, I got Heather's package today and Bones Season 1. *____________* Shiny~ ♥

And before I watch a couple episodes of it, I'm reading Detective Conan chapter 633 and zomg so much awsumness! We need icons of this chapter STAT. But I can wait because I want them to be awsum and awsumness can take time.

( Chapter spoilers here )

But yeah. Computer's working all right for now. The new AntiVirus program is doing the job that's been sorely neglected since my old AntiVirus program disappeared into the ethernet or something. *shrugs* Oh well...

Around 10PM, I'll be working on French assignment and studying vocab for tomorrow, so...

Yeah.

Will be in bed by 1AM at the latest and then it's rise-and-shine at 7AM so I can do more studying. Saa...

And I'm off to do these things~
.

SO MUCH SQUEE.

And it got me out of my Winter Depression Funk Thing Whatever.

Also:

m0ny! WE CAN HAS NEED FOR YOUR LEET COLORING/ICONING SKEELS. MOSTLY INVOLVING THIS POSE, THIS EXPRESSION (last panel), AND THIS MOMENT.

... |D

I would rant about the actual events in the chapter, but candy__chan pretty much summed up my experience over yonder. WARNING: DO NOT CLICK LINK TO POST IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED.

Ah. The funness of having a magical thief in a manga of death and murder and sometimes mayhem. ♥



EDIT: NOW WITH WORKING LINKS.
.

Okay, this is going under an LJ cut because it has spoilers!

( Spoilers for most recent arc in Detective Conan )
.

Not counting today, in which I have Spanish and Band still to attend, I have 4 days left in this Spring Quarter.

Ah. Awsumness.

And of course, I show my anxiety about things coming to a close by losing sleep. Not gonna say how much I didn't sleep last night because I'm not up for getting thwacked. I will be taking a nap soon after I post this, however.

So, anyway. My swimsuit came in the mail.

... shoulda gotten a size 38. D: I'm so chunky ;o; My back!fat was being cruel to me~

But then again, new suits do that. Just have to break it in... while also working to lose that extra weight still. So yeah. N-not confident enough to be seen in the suit in public yet, so... yeah. Will be exercising like crazy and I swear, no more Vault for a while. Only water and some juices--like orange juice. Which I need now because my throat's been feeling a bit sore and DO NOT WANT SICKNESS. D:

Ah heh...

Oh! Today the Moon Ghost episode of Detective Conan came out, right? Squee! I can't wait to see it! Chibi!Shinichi, chibi!Ran, younger!Mouris, younger!Kudos, chibi!Kaito, and of course, Toichi! :DD!

... yes, I'm back to my obsessive ways. Why it couldn't wait until all my classes were over I have no idea.

And uh... sotired. Gonna crash until noon-ish. Then go to Spanish at 12:30. @_____@;
.

... don't ask me why I'm using this icon. Roy looks sexy while he looks angsty. Shhhhh.

Anyway.

Wow.

I totally just finished looking at the second (and last) part of that Magic Kaitou chapter that came out and just... wow, Aoyama-sensei. Just wow.

It's really impactful, really. Especially right after you read the first one... now if only I could understand what they were saying but even without knowing the dialogue... *shakes head*

Ah... and if you guys haven't seen it yet, here are both parts:

Nightmare 1
Nightmare 2

juneaddams? I'm totally going to have to put your request on hold for a little bit because this chapter totally has plot bunnies biting with your name on it thanks to your prompt and the song as well. *shakes head* Just... wow.


EDIT: Also, is it just me or is Hakuba a whole lot cuter in this arc?
.

Okay, so. MK fans all know about the newest chapter out with Kaitou Kid, right? Yes, yes, you probably do~ ♥

Mostly I'm doing a "Squee Here Now" post with this.

Okay. So first of all, ickaimp posted raw scans of it over in her photo album. And then over at detective_conan, touma_karamochi posted a rough translation of it. Which totally wins because it helps us all understand what's all going on within this chapter which, btw, is totally uber awsum. :D

...have I ever mentioned how much this fandom rocks? ♥

Anyway, so yeah. Squee here. Discuss the chapter here. Spam here. Don't care. Just share the awsum!



EDIT: I just found a post on magic_kaitou around the 13th of December that had people talking about this Kid special and whatnot, a then there's this comment made by aoko.

...is Hakuba the special present? :D? XDD
.

Who is the Siller Bullet of the Black Organization?

The Boss apparently thinks that Shuichi Akai is.

But Vermouth/Belmot apparently believes that Kudo Shinichi is and she's keeping her knowledge of Shinichi a secret.

...so...is the answer that they both are?

And why is Vermouth keeping Shinichi's identity to herself? Because she believes she owes him and Ran a favor for that time in New York? Or something else? Maybe she wants there to be a Silver Bullet?


...and why am I asking? Because, damn it, I'm trying to think about how things fit in this series! IT'S HARD FOR A PERSON LIKE ME TO GET ALL OF THESE BITS OF INFORMATION! DDDD:! I'M NOT A MYSTERY PERSON--EXCEPT IT MAKES ME CURIOUS TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE SOLVE MYSTERIES AND NOW I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP WITH CAPSLOCK SO I'LL JUST GO NOW, JA!
.

...my respect for Mouri Kogoro just got kicked up a notch. BAM!

Seriously, Kogoro knows more than he lets on...makes me wonder sometimes...

That, and he can take a hit. XDD



EDIT: Lessee...'ve seen the 1st movie...the 2nd...3rd...4th...6th...8th...and 9th...

Mmm...which should I watch next *looks between 5 and 7*

...*goes with 7*




EDIT 2: ...Heiji's a dork.
.

It's been established who the mysterious man was in this most recent chapter, yes?

...all right, then.

Those of you who have voted for the winner during Icka's bet post, please report to this post to tell the losers what you would like to have as a request.

...I feel really very sorry for the people who lost the bet. *innocent look is betrayed by the icon, isn't it?*
.

Okay, I'm bored, you're probably tired of seeing these kinds of posts, but damn it, I want to squee with my fellow fangirls.

CHAPTER 573--DISCUSS THE SQUEE!

...or spam. I don't really care either way.


Yes...yes, I know that my romanji of katakana probably sucks. *shrugs* I'm a beginner at this, whut.




EDIT: Forgot to ask...but does this mean the 26 people who voted "Toichi" for Icka's bet win? *wicked grin*
.

All Detective Conan fans that are looking forward to the translations of chapter 571, wait no longer! ...well, for the notes, you'll have to wait a bit longer, but for the rest of it--!

clover_magic has managed to scanlate the chapter, so feel free to stop by over there and squeal and come up with theories and maybe even try helping to translate the notes and codes some!

Have fun~!

Late Happy Birthday to Aoyama Gosho, creator of Yaiba, Magic Kaitou, and Detective Conan (and maybe others that I don't know of). And in relation to that, a happy birthday to my favorite phantom thief/teenaged idiot Kuroba Kaito. :D

Their birthday happened to be on June 21st, but...uh...I dunno...I totally missed it--whoops.

And on that same day, the most recent chapter of DC came out and...well...

Those of you who are participating in Icka's bet? You might have seen the chapter hosted on Kcnmttcnn, but does ANYONE have ANY translations? I'm about ready to DIE because I have NO IDEA what's going on and--gaaaaah...I wanna know who the mysterious man is!

...and did anyone else notice that this particular arc crossed over Gosho and Kaito's birthday? And this particular file came out on that very day? Suspicious, ne?

...yeah, I'm done.

Poke me if you need anything!
