Grand Chase! Is it time to be back?

grand chase logo Pictures, Images and Photos


Grand Chase a free to play online fighting game still keeps haunting me. I've managed to get my main character, a Magic Knight and in GC's case its called a Ronan to reach the level cap of the game which is currently Level 65. I've also managed to buy him the right equips so far form the Gacha Bead system of the game and have pushed him to obtain his very last job, a Abyss Knight but I rarely use this job of his, I still use Aegis Knight because of his survivability in a game. Oh forgot to mention, in GC your characters can have for jobs, each job having a different weapon and in the case of my character:

For a Ronan (Magic Knight)

1st job: MAGIC KNIGHT

Ronan - Magic Knight

His weapon is a Magic Sword and can throw magical bolts.

2nd job: Dragon Knight

dRagOn kNighT..

He uses a Glaive as his weapon and can summon a dragon to aid him in his battles.

3rd job: Aegis Knight

Ronan the Aegis Knight

This job of Ronan uses a sword and a shield in battles, and has the ability to block attacks excluding really heavy skills and you guessed it right, he is not that agile unlike his first two jobs but he can really withstand a heavy battle.

4th job: Abyss Knight

Ronan the Abyss Knight

This last job of Ronan is all about damage and full power, he uses a "Tyrfing" and a magic glove which he uses to throw powerful magical bolts and bombs on enemies.

And after all that, it looks like I'll be playing this game again, what's more is the newly made GUILD SYSTEM and a new dungeon will be unveiled this coming days which makes me more excited in playing this game again.

Anyways, here is an old screenshot of my character back in those old days.

He doesn't look like a knight eh? LOL

Bakemonogatari: I cant wait for the ending!!!.




Now if you haven't watched this one yet, I'd say better catch it now if you want a taste of some good natured anime'. "BAKEMONOGATARI" is a portmanteau or a word play for the word BAKEMONO which means Monster or Ghost and MONOGATARI which means story. What's funny is that even in the english translation of this anime' it becomes a wordplay also "GHOSTORY".

Ye old harem style of story but not much of a harem I could say 'coz this anime definitely caught my fancy for it's great humor and emotional congestions. Still I would not finish my description with this anime' coz this was just released fall last year and the very last episode that was released online was last Feb. 23 only, it currently has 14 episodes and the darn 15th episode is yet to be released. LOL.

Oh and about the characters above in clockwise direction:

Hanekawa Tsubasa the cat
Koyomi Araragi the vampire
Hitagi Senjougahara the crab
Suruga Kanbaru the monkey
Nadeko Sengoku the snake
Mayoi Hachikuji the snail
Shinobu Oshino the Vampire
Meme Oshino the expert

Now you might be wondering why those brandings? Just watch it! XD

Death upon sight

The themes of certain anime's these days revolve around "slice of life" genres to action to the "moe" styles. In the side of the action genres of anime' two TYPE MOON anime' babes caught my fancy: Canaan and Ryogi Shiki which both taken from console games. So what is it about this babes that caught my fancy? Well they both posses "Dōjutsu" or eye technique that is relative to each other.

First we will start off with Canaan.
Canaan

Canaan from the series named after her and whose name means "Promised Land" is a middle eastern mercenary and assassin, but enough details about her, if you haven't watched the series I recommend you to watch it. Anyways, now what "Dōjutsu" does this girl possess? It is called SYNESTHESIA, which in medical terms means a neurologically-based condition in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. Its like a reflex but it involves triggers so as to what you're other senses will do like when you see your crush you hide or something like that. What's something about this ability is that different colors represent different people depending on the emotion they have during the time Canaan sees them. In Canaan's case she possess it in her eyes giving her an ability to know who are the enemies and the civilians, who to kill and who is innocent, who is lying and who is honest. And that's that, I think with one look she'd definitely go for the kill if you're the right target, no mistakes, like an infrared vision snakes have so that they can see in the dark.

Canaan's Synesthesia:

Synesthesia

It's Golden hued I think.


Ok let's move on with Ryogi Shiki from Kara no Kyoukai


Ok, don't be fooled by that innocent smile, Ryougi Shiki came from a series of 7 movies which was based on a game and a light novel. If you haven't watched this series too you better watch it if you are in search of a GREAT anime'. Ok back to Shiki, Shiki on the other hand is from a well respected family and was born with two personalities, a male and a female one. Now you might tell me WTH she has a male personality and will she do a Yuri act sometime, LOL, No it's because (SPOILER) when she woke up after a coma she can n o longer feel her Male personality. Now what is her "Dōjutsu", kind of a long termed one: "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception" in which she can see the lines of life of a thing, living or not. Yes that means she's the ultimate destroyer in which she can also erase the existence of a thing or material. Anyways only one cut of a sharp object to these lines she sees will surely obliterate the target. One look, slash, you're dead.

Ryougi Shiki in hunt Mode:

Shiki
Her eyes are Rainbow Colored when she is in this mode.

So that's it, aside from the infamous eye techniques from the anime' Naruto, these two girls also have great eye techniques of their own, better not mess with them if you dont want to have Death upon sight! Well again if you haven't watched the series yet, watch it right now!
