    Velvet Sounds released their new album Maditation, a Megaten Arrange, at C74. Seems decent, though I haven't really given it a proper listen.

    Yeah, but Mitsuru then joins your party, replacing, if there's any justice in this world, Junpei.

    Which is a huge win.

    I happen to love Junpei. In a completely platonic way. I don't want to replace him :(.

    See, the problem is that Mitsuru joining the party does little to counteract the fact that Fuuka talks. Like, more than anyone in the game. With her horrid horrid voice arrgghhh. :(

    Look on the bright side, the annoyance factor is reverse in P4. Of course, pretty much anything is better than a squeaky helium bear chattering at you.

    Man that was LESS obnoxious than the average female Japanese VA in anime. :P

    In fact, the second support character made my ears hurt more for being more along the lines of just that.

    Yeah, no, Aroduc, Rise's Japanese voice is way too high pitched to be anything but annoying. So is Kuma, of course. I'd say they're about equally horrible.

    No, it's in both modes. You need Fuuka in your party though.

    Yeah, it's too bad that we didn't run into Panopea (the Elizabeth cosplayer) on Saturday. She was also on part of the West Coast Train Trip back, though I think she left earlier. (We've still got 10 and a half hours to go on the train.) But I think my costume went fairly well for being just the summer uniform. If I had committed to it earlier, I probably could have dome something along the lines of the more popular winter uniform. Oh well. Next year, I guess I can start thinking about things a little bit earlier, should I decide to cosplay again.

    Man, just be thankful you've never seen male Touhou cosplayers. This is a series that has had 3 official male characters given a mention out of a cast nearing the hundred mark. Of those three, one's a turtle and another one doesn't even have an official rendition.

    D: That would be such a waste. I liked the little bit I played of Demi Kids, but I could go for anything else, really. I'm still waiting for any word about the Persona... thing that was mentioned forever ago for the PSP.

    I'm really enjoying myself playing through Raidou Kuzunoha. I started playing this instead of Nocturne since it was shorter, but I think I'll probably get way more than 20 hours out of it. I just fought Rasputin in the church at the end of the... 4th episode, I think? I really like that they tried as hard as possible to make sure you knew he was Russian, with the matryoshkas and the dance and all. That battle was really awesome.

    It's great. I was on the fence for a while, but it really grew on me.

    I'd say The Almighty might trump Hari-Hara for guitar goodness.
