All good things must come to an and
The Otakubowl has finally come to a close. It was a rather close finish. In fact, by one vote.

And now, I present the winner.



The final votes were Rurouni Kenshin (6) vs Samurai Champloo (5).

Congrats to Rurouni Kenshin! This should serve as a hint to Cartoon Network that this is one anime that should be shown to its entirety. Before I had seen it, I had wanted to see it something fierce. Then I heard that CN was going to be airing it. Soon afterward, they did, but only part of the way through the series. They left me hanging. I was very disappointed.

Anyway, here's some credits that I feel should be mentioned.

First off, I owe the title of "The Ultimate Clash between Old and New" to CosmicSailor.

Next, I'd like to give mention to those who had the highest attendance through the whole event.

#1. (tied)
Knight Edge
lordsesshomaru

#2. (tied)
CosmicSailor
BurningDeamon

#3.
bunraku

#4.
KitsuneTsuki

#5.
Wolf of Darkstar
And I feel this one deserves a special mention because he is one of my oldest, dearest friends here on myO, and he is currently serving in Iraq. I was lucky enough to have the Otakubowl going on during his mid-tour leave. If you get a chance to read this WoD, I'm glad you could be here. I miss you!

Unfortunately, I only list the top five, which resulted in 7 because of ties. However, thank you so much to everyone who participated in this. Even to those who only showed up once and voted, I still appreciate it.

This concludes the 2007 Otakubowl. Until next year.




Wednesday was kind of a weird day for me. I worked, then came home. I relaxed for a while. Then went shopping with my five year old daughter, Amber. We bought a lot of goodies. One of those being jelly beans. Okay, just so you know now, I'm a huge fan of black licorice. And to my good fortune, the bag of jelly beans is loaded with the black ones. But I discovered the light brown ones are some sort of coffee flavored ones. Which is another one of my weaknesses.

Anyway, on to other subjects. I love music. Normally, I'm a hardcore metalhead. I love my hard rock and metal music. But for some reason I started flashing back to the mid to late 90s. Does anyone remember the band Better Than Ezra? Yeah, I was listening to them. And Collective Soul. Oh, and I'm not really into The Cranberries, but their song "Zombie" I just absolutely love, so I've been listening to that one. Then I started listening to songs from The Crow sountrack. Actually, as I type this I'm listening to those songs.




And finally, be looking forward to some changes to my site, or mainly my posts. Now that the Otakubowl is done, I've been looking for things to add here. So, some new stuff will be coming this way soon. That reminds me of the title of a movie "Something Wicked This Way Comes". o_O
Good movie, by the way.

Ok, well I think this wraps up my post. Have a good Thursday.
