because my opinion is what you've been missing out on

I believe that the true backbone to a site is the original content that can be shit out. Anybody can list biographical information about Sailor Moon but not everyone can write. I write as a way to perform my service to the people, since my insights are often better than most. What?

The content available in this section is the bi-product of my intellectual property. In laymens terms? Everything was written poorly, researched briefly, and somehow uploaded by me. If there's a chance something I write tickles your fancy, don't be a scheming bastard and steal. Or else, you technically can since I doubt anyone would ever visit your armpit of a website, so there'd be no chance I'd really care.

Religious fervor in FFX
Religion is altogether a taboo topic to speak about negatively, but there are several games out there that do just that. Check out Xenogears and FF: Tactics sometime. Final Fantasy X took it another step and has the player actually destroying 'God'.

Manga: Apocalpytic Lite
Apocalpytic Manga is given the once over. An extremely long winded piece, both religious connotations and the effect of love are presented in a battle to the death.

My Deus Ex Machina
A personal musing into my gaming past and how it's made me who I am today.
