today is the last day of Dragonica, as the server will be closed after 12pm (so yeah it was closed already). I know about this one month ago when they just announce, and I tried to patch my client to login to have some fun at the very last moment of it. Dragonica is actually quite a fun game, and it is the second online game that let me have so much fun and know many new friends other than Ragnarok Online. I started playing Dragonica since year 2009, and quitted like 1 or 2 years later. The gameplay is nice, as I can use my character to run and jump everywhere in the game. so, not much to say, I will just spam my screenshots here.
the moment when I finish patching, my character name was used because of server merging
new IGN: SilentZai
play time: 6428 hours
I was once a noob. I mean that kind that is really noob
I was also once the strongest Trapper in Elga server
and also the very first person who solo in a guild war and won 2 guilds
and this is the end of my Dragonica story
Lastly, here's a video of the Dragonica Dance Showdown event participated by me and my friends. We won consolation price :)
now is not really the time to blog, but since it's Mother's Day, I will just make a quick post. This year's Mother's Day is quite special to my family, because this is the first year we celebrate Mother's Day with her. She left us very soon after last year's Mother's Day. Yesterday saw my aunty posted a photo taken during grandma's birthday in 2009, I think that's the last time she was able to celebrate with us in the restaurant. The birthdays after that year, she was mostly in hospital and nursing home.
Today, my family went to Chef Rasa Sayang Chinese Restaurant (亞順哥魚翅) @ Crystal Crown Hotel PJ to have dinner. We went back right after dinner because I need to rush my assignments.
Tomorrow is the submission of my assignments, which is the last 2 assignments of my college life. and yeah, both assignments are programming assignments. I'm really bad in programming, but I'm able to complete it thanks to the assist of some friends. Now I'm still busy compiling and writing the documentation.
Few weeks back I was finding some completed anime series to download, and I selected few series that looks interesting to download. One of the series I downloaded is Steins;Gate. Last Monday I had some free time, so I decided to start watching it. Just when I start watching, I got the excited feeling that I don't always have, only happens when I'm very interested in certain anime. The setting and plot of the anime was great, and this genre of anime is exactly what I like to watch the most. So, end up I spend whole day to finish 24+1 episodes. It has 24 episodes, and the extra episodes is an OVA from the DVD/BD.
Here is the plot I copied from Anime News Network, because I'm too lazy to write out myself (the plot here is actually quite brief, it's better to refer to wikipedia's plot or just watch the anime)
Okabe Rintaro is a self-proclaimed "mad scientist" who believes that an international scientific organization named SERN is conspiring to reshape the world according to its own interests. He and his friend Hashida Itaru inadvertently create a gadget able to send messages to the past. The discovery and experimentation of this instrument become the catalyst of fundamental alterations to the present. Okabe is the only one aware of these changes because he possesses a Reading Steiner, the ability to retain the memories from previous experienced timelines. Oblivious of the consequences of their actions, Rintaro and his friends end up creating modifications of grievous proportions. He must then try to find a way to return as close as possible to the original timeline in order to save his precious lab partners.
So, as I said, I finished the whole series in a day, 25 episodes x 24 mins = 10 hours. I'm really satisfied with this anime in many way. The setting, story, characters, theme song. The anime ends in a very nice way, unlike some anime that has great story but always end badly. There's one thing in the anime I kinda dislike actually, which is this character called Shiina Mayuri. The seiyuu of this character is Hanazawa Kana, which is a quite famous seiyuu in these recent years, and I kinda like her voice too. However, I really dislike this Mayuri's character in the anime. I guess it's quite difficult to explain why, because I also can't tell why. I highly recommend this anime. My rating is 10/10.
the Opening Theme of the anime: Hacking to the Gate - Itou Kanoko
this video is a fanmade AMV. I didn't post the PV of the song because I like this AMV a lot. watching this AMV is like a flashback of the anime, if you already finish watching.
and here is the Piano version of the song. the guy who play this song is really great. try check out his Youtube channel for other piano cover of anime songs
Yesterday I also saw a news about Steins;Gate movie from theakiba.com
Sorry for the long post (some of my friends told me that my posting style kinda like Wikipedia)
so, that's all about it. hope you guys will enjoy this anime as much as I did.
