Zettai Fukuju Merei

Absolute Obedience

I'm playing it through for the first time in a long while and I only got as far as two missions, both with Louise, and it struck me for the first time that this game is a bloody SM parade. I have no idea how this escaped me the first time, maybe I was too concerned with turning the volume down so as not to scare the neighbors with men crying in effeminate voices . Anyway, I went into the doctor story and now am playing through Lawless and the game is starting to unsettle me.
Being slightly of a masochistic persuasion this turn of things promises to be fun :D

lupin III: Green vs Red

overall: 10 (would put more but am trying to create a scale)
Sadly I understood only half of the story, but it was brilliant. I actually felt a rush and half of the time I was giggling like the little girl that I am.
No great organization or killers to go against this time, but lots and lots of Lupins running about the place. i like how the story was focused not on the gang but on the impostors.
Bags of eye candy for all Lupin-lovers, especially with a little R-33 license plate at the bottom of the river in the beginning.
now have to find a review to understand how exactly it ended, since can't make heads or tails and it's eating me alive.
Am happy, happy, love, love

Mushishi

Finished watching Mushishi and discovered that it's rather OK. I was led into it with wrong expectations, but when I got into the swing of it the the slow pace and Ginko saying "The cause is Mushi," became quite close to my little yaoi-loving heart. At least it didn't really have much of a point, which is very nice. It led from nowhere and into nowhere.
The style is alright apart from the rare comedic faces they try to put on, which just don't fit anything.
overall: 9
