Sasuke VS Itachi (Hebi VS Taka)

Naruto Shippuuden episodes 135-136 is the start of the most awaited fights in the series. This has been patiently awaited by fans since the the early episodes of Naruto. Since Sasuke mentioned that his purpose is to restore the Uchiha clan and kill Itachi. We will now be able to witness the fight of the Hebi and the Taka (snake and Hawk). Lucky for those manga readers who have already read them, but to witness the fight in motion and with sound effects is a different story.

In these episodes, we'll be able to know the reason why Itachi didn't kill Sasuke on his total massacre on the clan. And the first ever story of Madara Uchiha, how he got his Mangekyo Sharingan and how he remedied the blindness caused by it... These episodes is indeed a heart stopping one, it almost made me pee my pants off (joke ^_^)... and it is a must to watch them now.

The Otaku Encyclopedia

The Otaku Encyclopedia: An Insider's Guide to the Subculture of Cool Japan - By Partrick W. Galbraith... This book is basically the A-Z of the Japanese pop culture or "Otaku." This is not an Anime reviews but an overall context of the subculture - like origin, history, and facts of anime, manga, figures, and etc. All are related to the Cool Japan. This book is definitely for Otakus like us... to increase and fully understand the said subculture.

Well anyways, I would like to emphasize the meaning of Otaku as of my perspective and with the accordance to the definition provided by Wikipedia. Otaku is a Japanese term used to refer to  people with obsessive interests, particularly in anime, manga, and video games. This definition has nothing to do with the lifestyle. But sadly, most people define it as Geeks, and nerds. Geeks, as far as the dictionary is concerned, refers to people with poor social abilities and devastating fashion statements. Sometimes regarded as very smart people with nothing to do but study... So why associate Otaku with geeks, well in fact during cosplays we excessively try our best to stand among others (in fashion) and socialize with them. I for one doesn't want to be associated with geeks, because obviously my fashion statement is way too different from them. "And" I am highly sociable person.

Being an Otaku doesn't mean being a geek. It means that you love anime, manga, video games, and most importantly JAPAN.

Gothic, terror, and pain... This is the impression of the Akatsuki. Whenever these people are shown in Naruto Shippuuden this scary Gothic music is always played, which brings me to my very core.

Ragnarok Online

The first Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) that ever hit the Philippines! Despite the game being first launched in this country last 2003. It is still growing strong, even with some new game rivals.

RO, as it is more commonly known among the locals, has a variety of maps in it that leads to different types and levels of monsters. Depending on how strong your character is, you must know which place to go to avoid encountering a monster that is aggressive, or if you're unlucky, a boss monster.

Though going solo has its advantages, it is still best to have partner or a party with you in order to ensure your character's survival. Various equipment can be added to your character for it to be stronger, faster, or more supportive.

With so many jobs that you are starting, a novice, can choose from, you'll need to pick one first before attempting to fix the status of your novice.

RO gets updated most of the time, whether with new job classes, or new places to go, for sure that it will really offer something intriguing that you just don't want to miss. The best time to play and enjoy the game happens to be the Christmas season, since it's the time where RO either gets generous enough to give more experience points, or perhaps give the players a chance to receive a limited edition equipment - most being headgears.

There's no doubt about it, this is one game that a lot of people enjoy playing, and never get tired of as each day passes. Once bitten by the RO bug, it's hard to get it cured.
