Dir en Grey's newest album, Withering to Death, is number 31 on Finland's official album chart! o_O

Texhnolyze
Last night I was at the local club's anime night and saw the first six episodes of Texhnolyze. I didn't get very into it - at first one wasn't sure what was going on and there was interest, because I wanted to know what would happen and what was the link between these different people. But then as things became a little clearer, I lost that interest. I didn't care at all what was going to happen to the characters. That's a pretty bad thing, so I don't think I'll be watching any more of that show.

The surprising thing about Texhnolyze was that it belongs to those very rare animes whose opening and closing songs are both good. The other one tends to often be crap. But this anime opened with a wonderful song called Guardian Angel (Xavier's Edit) by Juno Reactor, and I was jamming with it every time it played. When it opened the first episode, it really raised my expectations of the show, and I wanted to see what it was all about, since the song created such a great atmosphere from the get-go. Too bad the opening song was the thing I liked most in the anime. Anyway, the closing song was Tsuki no Uta by Gackt, which is a very nice song, too.

So, even if I didn't care about the characters and the plot, at least I was jamming. And I liked the visuals of the opening, as well, and some of the character designs.


Why isn't there anything good going in the theatres? I wanna go see a movie...
