About Me


I'm an avid anime fan (blood type A!)
I collect anything relating to Rurouni Kenshin.
I have a rather unhealthy obsession with VK & J-Rock
I love gaming and I'm currently playing "Guild Wars, Crysis, Jericho and Bioshock" _

My Interests



Anime, manga, Sci-Fi, music, gaming, history, computers and lots of stuff really...

I'd like to meet:

The piper at the gates of dawn and the black dog, to bite him back!!!

I was hoping this was up on You tube - and it is! ...

This is "Alice in wonder underground" by Buck-Tick ...
Live on: @ Music Japan

Here's "Reborn" by ANGELO (ex Pierrot members Kirito, Kohta and Takeo)
It's off their album "REBIRTH OF NEWBORN BABY" which came out in May of this year.

This is one hell of a bad ass song!

Though perhaps Kirito-san should not dance maybe? _^

This is Hakuei's (Penicillin, Machine) PV for
"Baby 999 XXXX" off his 2001 album
"SAMURAI"

You have been playing for 15 hrs, please take a break ...
