stunned...

went to watch Fearless with moo moo today at JP...
a most unexpected thing happened...

wat happened when we showed the ticket to the lady in charge...

*lady looks at tickets. den takes a look at us (or mainly me)*

Lady: excuse me, can u show me ur IC pls.

*enters shocked faces of roar roar and moo moo*

animals: HUH??

*animals fumbling for ICs, still feeling very bewildered at being asked. shows lady proof that we are INDEED more than past the age*

Lady: sorry, but u guys look younger than u look. (she looks alittle sheepish here)

i guess there's a first time for everything... but i definitely wasn't expected to be stopped for watching a NC-16 show... M-18, probably... R-21, possibly... but NC-16??

i dunno whether i should feel insulted or happy... i'm sure my dear biao-mei is laughing her head off as she reads this...


anyway, review for Fearless...

one word...

OUCH!!

yes, it's a martial arts show... but seriously, there's so much bones cracking i had to cover my ears and eyes more than i should be...

for OP fans who is up to date with the anime, remember the scene when Robin was fighting with Yamato in the Skypiea arc where she cracks all the possible bones she can in his fat body?

think fearless as a 1 hour plus version of that...

eww...

other than that, it was a great show... think Jet Li really went all out and did all the fighting he can with this last movie... watching this, i can see why he needs to stop doing these shows... it's too body harming...


Anime News:

Bleach #67 and One Piece #256 released...

finally watched Mai Hime... it started out quite nicely, but got slightly disgusted with it towards the end... especially when the HiMEs started going after each other and people started getting killed...

thought the ending wasn't that fantastic either, but it couldn't have been any better anyway with the way the story was proceeding...

for less violent anime, i recommend Kage Kara Mamoru...

story summary: the Kagemori ninja family has been protecting their neighbours, the Konnyaku family for the past 400yrs...
only, this is to be done in secret and the neighbours must not find out about it... this gets harder as the Konnyaku daughter has a knack for finding trouble and it's up to the Kegemori son to protect her...

quite cute, funny antics and funny ninjas and yazukas... not for the serious-minded... this series is purely for laughs...
