Ha Ha You Need Desire~


I've decided to have a little fun by making a page for my favorite meme OH DESIRE that originated in 4chan. The ending theme to the anime helped spark a huge load of photo-shopped images, you-tube videos and even some great copy-pasta that I'll share here with everyone. I realize that this meme is nearly dead by now but the DESIRE in my heart will never die.



Are ya ready kids?

Aye aye Goldsmith!

I can't heeeeear you!

AYE AYE GOLDMSITH!

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

WHO LIVES ON AN ISLAND OFF BY THE SEA?

KINZO GOLDPANTS!
SPONTANEOUS AND DRUNK AND A SORCERER HE BE!
KINZO GOLDPANTS!
IF SACRIFICING YOUR FAMILY IS SOMETHING YOU WISH!
KINZO GOLDPANTS!
THEN JUMP OUT THE WINDOW AND GO FUCK A WITCH!
KINZO GOLDPANTS!
READY?!
KINZO GOLDPANTS! KINZO GOLDPANTS! KINZO GOLDPANTS!
KINZOOOOOO! GOLDPAAAAAANTS! HA! HA! HA! HA! OH DESIRE!






If you got a chuckle out that parody copy-pasta I hope you enjoy this letter Kinzo left to his desired children.

Hey Siblings,

My name is Kinzo, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are greedy, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass epigraphs. You are everything bad on Rokkenjima. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any gold? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of children because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to portraits in my hall.

Don't be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I'm pretty much perfect. I am a self-taught human sorcerer, and I own an entire island. What hobbies do you have, other than "jack off to naked drawn Western people"? I also get tons of gold, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just burned me; Shit was SO gold). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

Pic Related: It's me and my witch





Well I hope you all enjoyed that little reminder of DESIRE that still lurks in my heart. I really wish that I could add more to this meme but sadly you need to DESIRE this to make it come back. I shall leave you with this you-tube clip everyone enjoy~

Sixteen questions for eroge/visual novel fans~

Anything to drive away boredom~
To kick my self off rolling again I found some questions that all visual novel/eroge fans should answer from one of the many blogs I read daily. I personally find this the easiest way to start up my blogging activities again. Below are just my honest answers to said questions. I'm also willing to admit that I'm a newbie in regards to non mainstream visual novels so don't get all pissy at me for not mentioning more obscure titles and always enjoy~

1.Who is your favorite female visual novel character?
This is a really hard decision to make because there are so many female characters I do like. Since I'm only able to pick one it would be saber from fate/stay night.

2. Who is your favorite male visual novel character?
Hands down I pick Battler Ushiromiya from Umineko.

3. Which character is the cutest?
Given her personality traits I would have to choose Rika Furude from Higurashi

4. Which Male or Female character is the hottest?
Since I prefer the mature ladies I would have to go with Akiko Minase for Kanon

5. What is your favorite visual novel soundtrack (or song)?
Out of all the visual novels I've played it would have to be clannad.

6. Which is your favorite visual novel opening animation?
I'm going to have to go with Stein's;Gate PC port op.

7. What is your favorite scene in a visual novel?
You all know how much of sick twisted bastard I can be so this is pretty easy for me. I choose the Corpse Party chapter five prologue which left with some soupy feelings.

8. What qualities in a VN character do you gravitate most towards?
There is only one quailty I really search for and that's a main character who is actually given a personality or human traits/flaws.

9. Which character in a VN is most similar to you in terms of personality?
I really hate to say this since I am unable to explain why but I'm alot like Matoko from School Days.

10. Who is your favorite VN Artist? 
Itaru Hinoue who did the first three classic key/visual arts games.

11. Who is your favorite VN writer?
 That would have to be R7 you dumb ass.

12. What is your favorite thing about visual novel/eroge?
Overall it's the way in how the story is presented to you into a format that only works within this given form of media.

13. What is one thing you would eliminate from all VNs to make them more perfect?
Childhood friends that never age.. dacopo I'm looking at you.

14. Do you think you’ll ever stop playing VNs?
At this current state in my life I gotta go with no.

15. Are you open about the fact that you play VNs with people you know?
Yes I'm actually open about the fact I play these type of games with my close family and online friends.


16. Which visual novel was the biggest let down for you?
None as of yet.
 
Now follow the golden fairy out~

Merry Christmas Everyone

Merry Christmas From Hatsune Miku

Well everyone I do hope that you are having a wonderful holiday season this year. It has personally been hard year all around for me and my family, however I am sure none of you are interested in that as of now. So lets get down to main point of this post, which is to share some of the best anime x-mas pics, that I have been able to scrape up from @chan, crunchy roll and Google. On a different note everyone how was your Christmas and did you get what you asked for??

Witch-Hunt's Final Patch Is Out

Ange Getting Some Pay-Back
For those who have been waiting very patiently "for nearly a year now", the final patch for Umineko answer arcs or 5-8 is finally out. After this long ass waiting period we can finally found out what happened on the island..or we will be fucking trolled by Bern and Lambdelta all over again. Sadly I can not spoil this "you must make/reach this decision for yourself at the end of arc8".

Keep in mind this one simple question "is it magic or a trick", will determine the entire outcome for the series "just make sure to save before hand". That's it everyone let me know your decision in the comment section below. As an early gift I will host a hyper-link to the patch and where to order the game. Oh and I do apologize for any spoilers... but get the hell over it.

New Sprite Patch For Umineko Is Up

Beatrice Is Happy

It's been awhile since the Ps3 to PC Umineko project took off the ground and they finally have an update for the sprites/backgrounds. The people over Tweaking Umineko have been working really hard to see a complete patch so the game will be on par with the Ps3 version "which seems to have no chance getting localized liked I hoped". I really do appreciate the work they are doing so far and I could wish that was able to help more besides promoting their work to the best of ability.

One other thing I will be doing is playing arc 4 of the game to show off all of their hard working starting 10/17/11 at 12pm est. Well feel free to download the graphical patch below and if your intrested check out the channel on you-tube to see some play. Hmm.. Not much else to say on this as of now, so i will catch you all later. Make sure to stay safe this month... the month that begin the whole mystery nearly twenty five years ago.

Some How.. This Makes Sense...

Beta Patch For Umineko Is Up

Stand Back and Observe
As I previously stated I am helping to promote a sprite/background patch for the first four arcs of umineko. The original project is long since dead and due to my lack of knowledge in programming/modding this is all I can do for the people over at Tweaking Umineko Wiki. As of now there are there parts up for the patch that you will need to download in order to make this work, when I get the chance I will create a torrent file on nyaa torrents and seed the best I am able to. So let's give a big round of applause to those that have made this possible, and lets look forward to a complete patch here in the future. 

In order to make these patches work as I just stated you will need to download three separate files that will be listed below. After you download the files make sure to re-name them the correct name and put them in the English [wh] patch folder or else the patches will not work at all. Their website has more clear/laid out instructions on how to do this so go to their site and slowly READ on how to do it. I also wish to apologize on my lack of reviews as of late, but I have some major personal issues going on so it can't be helped. Catch you all later and wish me luck.

Edit: I have done a small update to add more links for the voice patch and you-tube page. There are still things to be done for this patch, I will do my best to keep you all informed and updated to the best of my ability. Update: 9/4/11

Yes This Is Your Fate Battler..

Beta Patch Proof

Much Better

Promoting The Ps3 To PC Patch For Umineko

I So Want This Van
This goes way back to the beginning of my blog mainly on the Ps3 to Pc Umineko Patch. The person that has been doing seems to have stop completely leaving the project dead. However it seems that some people at the site where it stated have decided to pick it back up to make sure that the Umineko fans can fully enjoy the visual novel in glorious 1080p. This does however contradict my support for the localization of the game from NISA, but that's still a long-shot after all.I however legally own the PC and Ps3 versions so I really don't see a problem here. 

Moving on past that, the person in charge of the project is known as Saq is doing the main project. A link to his site will be provided below as well as some samples of his work so far. That's All I have to say on this subject for now, I will keep you updated with the progression of the project and provide a link once it's fully done.

Support The Ps3 Localization of Umineko

Official Art-work From The Game
Yeah I know this goes way back to a post that I made about three months ago, about the Ps3-PC patch for Umineko. Well as of now it seems that project is officially on a permanent hiatus and some other things have come to light on the subject. It seems that there is a-lot of support on the Nisa forums to bring over the game state side legally. I recently just bought a legal copy of the PC version for the core arc's "one through four" and I am currently playing through the second arc right now with the witch-hunt translation

Don't Mind Me, I am Just Being A Boss


That little bit aside If anyone can sign up and show support and help to bring this better version over legally please do, I will do my support by hosting links, trailers etc for the Ps3 version of the game. I am not going to sit here lie by saying this isn't a long-shot but come on everyone do the impossible, believe the unenviable, row row fight da power. Well I will catch catch you all around here soon and until next time, peace out everyone.

Playing Umineko On A Ipod/Ipad

Witch Approved
As the title implies some one over at Iphone Visual Novels has taken the liberty in making a custom App for Umineko, of course you will need the original game and English patch to make this work. This also requires a Jail-Broken Ipod Touch/Iphone Or Ipad, custom made soft-ware as usual. However even I am running into some problems this time around but if anyone can get this to work "which a-lot have apparently" personally I am just stuck at the point in transferring the data over. Yeah a small update as usual and i do plan on have some reviews up soon so look forward to them here soon.. The link for the tutorial on how do the custom app of Umineko for the iPod touch/Ipad app is below.

Using Adobe Photo-Shop

The Version I am Using

So In my spare time I am learning how to use Adobe Photoshop, although the version I am using is nearly ten years old now. You can probably guess.. but I am the one that mad the banner on-top of my page. I do realize that it's very amateur looking but I still have a long ways to go but kiss my a** if you don't like it. I have some basic tricks down for sizing, scaling and making pics look better, however I still need to learn cropping, layers and other things as well. Eh kinda of slow day but If anyone wants a custom banner let know, and I will do my best to help you out.


The Original Image

Attempt To add Text
Above is the three step method I used to make the banner, if you do make one for blogger make sure the size is around 900x200 px. This will make sure that it fits in top of the image banner and will not leave any background or color shown behind the pic. Well that's all I have to add on this, feel free to comment and I will catch you all around later.
