OneManga Shutdown

As the title states. OneManga.com, one of the most well known Manga-Streaming sites is shutting down due to publisher issues.

As one who frequents this site, i frown in sadness at the loss as it had saved me from the old days of checking between scanlators and downloading each file.
The original reason for downloading the file was so that i could always read it offline, however, in times like these when we are online 24/7 with somewhat decent bandwidth (right... 6_6 my internet has been killing me recently.. *sigh* ) streaming is in light, a simpler choice. Rather than burdening your machine with manga, you are now able to still read the manga at the expense of your online quota. There is only a slight difference between the data you download, unless you choose to re-read series.
This gives rise to streaming or online-viewers.

None the less, the closing of OneManga and its sister site 1000manga is a loss.

------------------------------------

on a side note, if you had wondered what i have been doing, there was a post i had created for Dance in the Vampire Bund. but due to my bad internet.... ~__~

Here's a toast to a healthier internet and the life of OneManga.
Kanpai~

Nanoha. It has begun....



Mahou Senki Lyrical Nanoha. (Magical War Chronicle Lyrical Nanoha)
The 4th installment to the Nanoha series. (And just recently, they had given us Vivid. But it seems these two will be publishing around the same time)

One of the most surprising things i find is that its no longer Magical Girl. its now Magical War Chronicles! A slight deviation from the title, but i guess that from this, they can focus more on the other characters instead of just Nanoha now.

It is good t see what will happen after StrikerS, now along with Vivid, with more belkan story, and now this. its like yippee!! ^___________^

Unforunately, like most other new upcomming series, people will be *cough*scanlating*cough* showing them slowly.

Semester 2

Well, holidays are over. and i've realised i haven't touched this at all o_o
sorry my negligence.

However, from then till now, i've mostly been workign and going out, and catching up on some anime.

Finished Tayutama and Chrome Shelled Regios and K-On, as well as Eden of the East.
The first 3 aren't worth mentioning much.
though i might do a bit of a review of Eden of the East. or at least my opinions and thoguhts on it after.

i've also picked up a few manga during the holidays, and once again, i dislike catching up to manga(fairy tale, medaka box, the world god only knows, d.gray-man, hayate no combat butler, negima, beautypop, aiki, etc... ). it becomes so depressing ~_~

Sidenote: There was a solar eclipse today, viewable from China and the pacific ocean. I want to see one one day :(

Swish~ Mix of stuff

Firstly, i've finished my exams!
woot! i just need to pass everything (course wise) >_
so now im' on holz and utterly bored. (with the exception of work) i shall endeavour to do SOMETHING. i might go buy that 20,000 piece puzzle i saw a while ago.
i still need to buy frames for my older puzzles -_-

Aside from that, i'm getting more use to my phone. and now have added more themes.
I have also formatted my wind. it now runs much smoother, however, i'm still have the same problem that sometimes the itnerface reverts back to XP style -_-

Meanwhile, i've also picked up a few other mangas to read. One of them being MedakaBox. Another one to my surprise was Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha Vivd.
Its set 4 years after the Striker's timeline.
I'm gonna follow this. more nanoha ^_____^

And my only source of Hellsing Ultimate OVA has been shot down ~_~
guuuh *shakes fist*

on the upside, Eden of the East is getting more and more climatic now. It seems the that Takizawa has used a fair amount of aliases and thanks to the Eden system, it's gonna be his potential undoing. As they find the treaded place within the mall. However, i want to see where this goes. How can you blame a man who has lost his memories? Despite doing it himself. And dammit, i want that Global Computer is a dangerous program. And i don't like no.10 & no.7 (think it was these guys). They're working together >_
On a leaving note. i looked into one of my externals, its got 4.5K songs....
~_~
i don't even feel like listening to 1K. let alone 4.5K
not to mention my more recent downloads, i do wonder how many songs i have now in total.
As my main ext hdd. i leave the winrar-ed ones zipped. So we can never get an accurate no until i decide to unzip them all XDDDDDDDDDDD

Till then.

Phone Price Credit?

Bah. its been 2 weeks, and my phone is still not in stock *grrrr*

Aside from that, my phone provider company is setting to do some rate changes, and apparently, with the next new recharge, i will lose all my current 'extras', which invvolve several hundred and thousand minutes of free minutes.

The thought of losing all those is flabagasting @_@

i need to call up the company to insure my credits will be transferred into this new prepay thing properly.
Otherwise, i'd be starting from scratch, and if so. imight as well change service providers while i'm at it.

Sidenote: (i've been reading Mahou Sensei Negima. and ooooh!! somethign has been revealed =D! )
