Yes you didn`t heard me wrong, TOV now have hacked iso and playable for any firmware above 5.00.
For those who have the original cd should know that battle loading time delay is insane (around 20-30sec) while using memory card to play the loading is reduced to only 5-7sec.

and everyone who watch kohak vids usually say `Nice oshiri (Nice butts)`

Seriously…
……
……

somehow I can`t express my feeling well right now. However I would like to see what they can create when everyone is gathered and cooperate.

Perhaps… a life chobits?

I am actually a graphic design graduate, but my lecture sent me to a animation production house for training instead of normal advertising company.
So my job life path went astray and now becoming a animator for 3 years.
Ps:The note in the pic said `owarumade, neruna!!` which mean `do not sleep until you are done!` so true for a animator or a manga artist XD

My first job is at Toona sdn bhd company, as a trainee for 3 month before I went back to complete my diploma.
I remembered that time they provide test drawing on the spot and ignored the student port folio, which is nice since my port folio was a mess at that time XD.
Lucky that I used to draw a lot when I still a kid at grandma house. Since at that time I don`t have computer or game, drawing and planting flower was the only thing I could do.
So I been picked as a storyboard assistant to help storyboard leader clean up and check for error since 4 storyboard artist resign at that day ( the amount of people leave per month is amazing, highest record was 12 people resign per month. While shortest period of employee was a girl crying back home on her first day in company, then she no longer found on next day).

First month I do get scolded a lot by leader because I am clueless and done ton of mistake >.< . However as time pass by I begin to get used to it and everything go much more smoothly. Meanwhile I take a peek at animator when I have the free time to do so. There I saw every animator is using pen tablet, so I curious and brought one to use at my house. To master it at shortest period, I decided to throw off my mouse and fully use wacom to even surf net.

3month have passed and I am back to college to finish my diploma. Soon after that I been called back by the same company that I were training at, but this time as a animator. It took me around 4month to get used as animator. Since the company have to produce 8 episode per month with around 30-40 staff, the time line is extremely tight. There time I have to work 24 hours per day (10am to 10am) and fall sick so many time that I cannot even able to count.
Well, there a fun time too… I and my co-worker all link the computer and play Dota game. Soon discovered by boss and after 7 o`clock they disable the router.
However… one of co-worker brought their own router and link them back so that we can play XD.

2years have passed, company is moving to china. Since I don`t have much saving yet (thanks to low salary I am getting) is dangerous to go oversea, not to mention china is quite dangerous with ton of thief. I resigned and taking a break at home.

While I am taking holiday, I happen to stumble upon a online games called Granado Espada.
It have good graphic and hosted by singapore, I decided to try it as I haven`t played much games ever since I working. Since I play everydays, I managed to join a guild called destroth and we become top guild for 4month. The fun parts wasn`t because we was a top guild, but rather a group of friend exploring the area and chatting together was entertaining.
2 of them have become my best online friends and chatting in msn when we are free.

After taking break for 5month… didn`t realize time pass so quickly =.=”. One of my ex Leader in my first company called me to help in new company. Thus I thought, why not? so i interviewed and become a employee in that new company. The company is mainly on courseware/ education project for `Dewan pustaka` ( which is related to goverment company). WOW… unlike my first company which serve under china boss, the pace here is much more slower so I can take it easy. Everydays return home on time, not to mention boss is kind enough to let me surf and watch anime/movie as long my work is finished.
The salary is just so so, but it was nice for me to heal the wound that I gotten when I was working at my first company.

Well… after 1 years ++ , the company is having trouble with the budget since all payments is delayed. I thought recession won`t affect company who working with goverment, I guess I was wrong. So… since boss could no longer pay ours salary, I have no choice but resign.

Okay! is holiday times!
well.. In this holiday I was working with my flash port folio and learn some web related stuff.

(Here is my flash port folio, nothing much though)
A half month later, I get a call from a client that want me to help with his project, thus my freelancing begins. The workload is quite random, when have work it will be a ton. Sometimes don`t even have thing to do, so my profit is random too lol.

after 3 month, the project is snatched by client worker who say he wanted to work with him. hmm.. to explain it I use this graph

Before
Mosti (a company that provide is job) –> representive —> middle man(my client) –>me

after my client hire a (let say is Bman)
Mosti –> representive —> Bman(take over)—>middle man –>me

With the budget just barely enough, now with Bman over it become in much more difficult postion to continue the project…
Not to mention ever since Bman take over, even a storyboard promised long ago until now not yet finished…

After half month nothing to do, I just go to job street website to find some job.
Today I interviewed one company and got hired. Since I got a feeling I won`t be a post much article since I start my job tomorrow…. I decided to post a LONG article before I went MIA (missing in action)

I tried series animation, courseware animation, freelancing and now is time…… as a flash games developer XD.

After seeing ton of article on how a Japan animator suffer from getting low paid…
let alone with wife, some even said can`t even support a girlfriends. Not to mention barely have times to hang out with them.
Well..I well aware I won`t be able to work effective as animator when I am over 40 years old as my eyes sight will be worsen. So.. I am living with low profile and save as much as I could before I reach 40 years old, and use it to establish a small business.

LOL… the article is too damn long , I guess most of reader just skip it XD

Recently just only watched Gurren Lagann and saw a awesome scene that similar like one of Gurren scenery while I having vacation at Langkawi island.
Didn`t expect to see such scenery that close to like heaven and hell.
Do the pic above and below look similar to you?

Now with some photoshopping

And yes, in the same time I learned few thing.. such as

When someone doubt your ability, just say this

Simple, easy and yet can reuse it as much as you want.

Come to think of it… nowdays my timeline is so messed up.
I sleep at morning and wake up at night lol

Aisa Himegami ask..are you not going to make blog?

oh btw if you haven`t watch the To Aru Majutsu no Index-Tan (special)
Get it from Eclipse sub, they are pretty good.

Ahh..
Without noticing, it been 3month half since I started this blog. While the blog serve no purpose at all XD
The blog sightly grow a bit in this few month, here the statistic of the blog

damn… it was pretty hard to maintain a blog/site. especially when you are either busy or lazy lol.(Read this post on how lazy I am )

Realize the important of SEO, Meta tag, search engine on getting your blog noticed by other people.
It was fun to try around and experiment lot of stuff.

With friends linking together it was fun, can read your friends news while they can read yours. not to mention I gotten few nice friends from this blog.

If you still haven`t have a blog, why don`t you start too?

Even as a maid in slave era…

If Saber exist in this modern era, probably will be something like this XD

Perhaps all those sky scraper building around the world is constructed by her, won`t be surprising if she does XD
Whenever you are holding a stick, shovel, sword etc…. remember to pose like this

Requested by Envoy since he interested to see my blunt katana XD
Okies here is it, there a pen beside the katana so you can roughly guess how long it is

A katana usually come with Wakizashi which is shorter than a katana

If I were to train swinging, I usually prefer the Wakizashi since it lighter and because my room is small.

It won`t be funny if I accidentally slice my figure into two piece isn`t it? XD

See the extra grip there? so that you can hold the katana protector firmly like the pic below

So here the blade, however a real one is much shiny and have a better texture. This one merely a blunt piece of steel.

Like I said if this is real katana, my hand already bleeding if I were to touch like that.

So here is the tsuba (guard). A fancy dragon shape XD

Finally Kashiri (pommel) not too bad for a fake one.

You might think it is light weighted since it just a thin piece of steel, however it does not seem to be like that.
It is quite heavy and easily get tired from swinging like 50++ times.
Ever wonder why kendo have a basic training just swinging the bamboo sword for almost everydays?
is to train your arm strength so you won`t get tired that fast.

I would like to own a real katana, however my biggest problem is I can`t get though custom check >.<
If it were to consificated, I will lost my hard earned money =.=”

If you interested on some real katana infomation, go ahead and take a look at the picture and video below.

A video on how sharp/tough katana is tested heavy machine gun bullet below

A slow motion on how katana dealing a clean cut on dummy doll

Ever wonder how the katana where make?

Well…. in the end….
Unlike game or anime…..in reality ranged attack such as gun is always superior atm.
Cos you cannot `bankai` with katana lol.
What is your favorite melee weapon?
