Anime Review - Rurouni Kenshin: OVA Tsuiokuhen (Reminiscence)
Just finshed watching Rurouni Kenshin OVA Tsuiokuhen.....
Animenfo is really an unreliable source.... For the no. 2 and highest rated anime at animenfo, Rurouni Kenshin: OVA Tsuiokuhen is not that great..... semi-exciting fight senses, semi-heart-warming romance..... its not really that good, but still a must-see for any Rurouni Kenshin fan....
Overview
The story is about Kenshin's teenager life, back when he still was a assassin. It shows how Kenshin got his X scar and the reasons why Kenshin swears never to kill again. The anime is 4 episodes long (about 2 hours).
Story:
Well..... its interesting to see Kenshin in the past when he still killed people and how he carried out his assassinations, but the story isn't that great, since the main focus was the love between Tomoe and Kenshin. The romance was kind of shallow due to poor charater development and there were many scenes which i found extremely boring and pointless. Throughout the whole OVA, i didn't really feel like Kenshin loved Tomoe and visa via. Overall, i feel its a weak story.
6/10
Artwork and Animation:
I was quiet disappointed that they changed the character designs. Kenshin looks...... not good...
But other then the characters, the artwork is beautiful. The animation is also pretty good, especially the fight scenes.
7.5/10
Music:
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SECTION. The soundtrack is is probably the best part of the OVA. Very sad and touching songs that would probably has be better if used on another anime (like D.N.Angel). The OST is comparable to Inuyasha and Spirited Away songs, maybe even better. The ony soundtrack which i feel is superior to this 1 is (ironicly) the Rurouni Kenshin Movie soundtrack (its even sadder.....)
10/10
Overall:
Don't Watch if:
- U fall asleep easy(Wee Siong)..... cuz got alot of boring parts
- U hate violence
- If u haven't watched the series
- If u don't like sad endings
- If u don't like sad songs
- If u are below 16 (Strong violence and mild adult themes)(according to me)
Overall: 7
Fine.... i'm not good at writing reviews..... cut me some slack lar.....

OMG.... its about the weirdest/most addictive Final Fantasy Song i have ever heard, i can't stop listening to it..... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..................
Higher and higher oh I want to fly
Out of the story this time I'll be free
Wake up for a moment from that dream of me
Lift up my eyes and I'm soaring away
On silver wings spread out to the sun
I'm leaving this city for the skies above.
Never lost, never failing
Follow me on my path to the heights
Before the shadows fade into night
I could tell everything
Hear the words that fill my mind
How can I say she was mine
Believe me, its horrible at first....... but once u get used to the vocal, it becomes so addictive that i can't stop listening to it...... Go download it and listen..... Don't blame me if it scars you for life...... its Heavy Rock Btw......... Nobuo Uematsu is truly a genius....
Btw............
............Sweden trip cancelled!!! (Awww and Yay at the same time)

-Section Deleted For Unkown Reasons-
(not unknown to me..... unknown to you)
Source: Wikipedia - Asperger syndrome
Hmmm......
I was talking to my mom today (she is a special-ed teacher btw), and she made me realise i may have mild Dyslexia.
Since i was young, I have had many problems with spelling and numbers, and also i would easily mix things up. Even until now i still show some symptoms of Dyslexia.
When i was young, i use to spell "Dog" as "God", "on" as "no" and i used to mix up "if", "for" and "of".
Up till now, i still can't pin-point a letter in the Alphabet (i still have to use a,b,c,d,e,f,g...... to find the letter i want in a dictionary), from time to time i miss-read or reverse numbers ( like i read 53 as 33 recently), my spelling is bad and sometimes i find myself reading the same line over and over again without really understanding wat it means.....
Too bad i can't use my Dyslexia anymore, if I had a cert. for it when i was in sec school, i would have got 15mins extra time in exams......
Oh well, since my Dyslexia is mild, it doesn't affect me that much. So if i'm abit slow at times, don't blame me.
P.S. It has been estimated that 3% to 5% of Singaporeans may be dyslexic. So its not uncommon.

Today's Rating: Fantastic..... but tiring.....
I reached school at 10am only to find that i didn't have rehearsl.... so i ended up just slacking in studio D for about 2 hours..... somehow, Wee Siong managed to convince me to skip my GEMs class for no reason at all.
After a few hours more of nothingness, we went back to Studio D to practice "Rakuen" (i not so sure about the spelling.....). I'm still not sure if or not i'm in their group.....
Anyway, the main topic for today is Weslies concert. Ok lar..... the first half was not that great.... good but not great.....but the second half was really good. It was like some-sort of boardway musical.
Sure the dancing was kind of weird (and funny), but the music and mood was great. Great acting, singing and dancing. Altogether a very well cordinated concert. Well done Weslie.......
Had great fun with Joey, Zheng Yi, Yosua, James (OMG, I noe James (Anti-human)) and....... ermm...... the other guy......... Yosua is still very fun to make fun of.......
P.S. Its not really Weslie's Concert but The MJC choir concert. (for non-PRSS)
P.S.S I DID NOT FALL ASLEEP IN THE CONCERT!!!

Soooooo, I woke up late as usual and blah blah blah.......
Today Clef, Wee Siong, Jasmine and I went to the city area to browse for electric gulitars. (oh yea, just incase u didn't know, I'm thinking of learning the Electric gulitar.) Turn out to be a semi-useful trip, cuz I learn quite a few things..... but I'm yet to buy a gulitar.......
At 6pm we headed back to school of the dreaded weekly meeting, and talked about the concert. Lucky today's meeting was short, or else I would have nv finished my horrible MUST homework (hmmm.... I still haven't finished it) Suddenly I started talking about politics and how our EXCO needed a opposition to help us see our flaws....... it was kind of stuipd now I think of it, oh well.......
Note to Joey: If u still read my blog, we going weslie's concert this wed hor.....
