I am....THE PROCRASTINATOR!

Instead of working on my English essay like I'm supposed to (the rough draft is due tomorrow by the way and I have yet to start ^^;), I'm sitting here reading Kakairu smut and giggling like mad. Nice sense of priorities, eh? Because we all know Iruka in a black schoolboy uniform can not be ignored. Go get him Kakashi! XD

Anime thrives in video games -- Pffftt!...As if that wasn't known already. ^_^

EDIT: Whoa! 0_o This has got to be the WORST cover for Howl's Moving Castle I've ever seen. Ugh, its hideous! Oh Howl! What did they do to you?!

EDIT X 2: "The Garden of Everything" by Maaya Sakamoto (featuring Steve Conte) still manages to give me chills no matter how many times I hear it. Such a beautiful song! ♥ ♥ I'm a Maaya Dork.

BWAHAHA! That cover! It's pretty bad. Well it's not too bad, it's just Howl that's creepy. That really makes him look like a womanizer, an ugly one at that. Sad thing is there is a worst one out there! I'm not sure if it's a cover or not but I came across it on google. It looks like bad fanart but it had like the title and author and stuff like it's a cover for something and I saw it more than once. Lameness. I'll stick with the oh-so beautiful Hayao Miyazaki version. =)

YES! That's probably why I don't like the cover I linked to. I'm used to Miyazaki's oh so gorgeous version of Howl that all others pale in comparison.

This (http://images-jp.amazon.com/images/P/006441034X.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg) is the version I have. Its still pretty bad looking (you can't really see the scarecrow's face well, but I assure you, it is HIDEOUS), but not super-gaudy like the other one. Eh, they're both quite horrible looking now that I think about it. ^^;

I haven't seen a version of the one I had yet. I'd scan it but I let sara have it. It's pretty bad. I'll try and describe it's hideous-ness.

Howl is tan, has his black hair, has traditonal, tacky, wizard attire on. It has long sleeves and it's red with stars and moons. He's got like lighting coming out of his hand. and then behind him is a BIG picture of an ugly Calcifer. Although that IS how they described him I like Miyazaki's SUPER cute Calcifer. Then all tiny is like a stick figure which is actually a scarecrow. That's about it.

It's not AS bad as it could be but it's still not attractive.

Poor Howl! I'm glad Miyazaki did him justice! He made him absolutely GORGEOUS! -^^-

No man, my cover is the worst. The Worst. I can't even find a picture of it for you because I think they stopped selling it just after I bought it because it was so hideous. Truly, I cannot express the terror.

...Wow, you have me both curious and absolutely terrified at the thought of what your cover looks like. Happy Howl thoughts Kathy, must think of happy Howl thoughts, lest the bad covers haunt your dreams. XP
