Adult Swim rocks.

Honestly. There's nothing better then peering at your TV for a good five hours in the wee hours of the morning because the Venture Bros. is on. I can only stand Aqua Teen Hungerforce for a limited amount of time, but the Venture Bros....ah, sweet, sweet, heaven.

My favorite part about this wonderful late night special is not only the fact it caters to my anime needs, but its sick music and funky bumpers. There's nothing I'd want more in the world then to sit around all day making commercial transition screens with a bear and a hockey mask and lots and lots

of bullets.

I could probably rant about the magnitude of magnificent bumps Adult Swim has in their repertoire, but I won't. Mainly because bumpworthy.com has them all covered and does it with more class then I ever could. I can't count how many times I'd sneak downstairs just to hear those familiar, indie beats that I really couldn't find on my walkman in which my mom had only bought me two CD's, Michelle Branch and Brittany Spears, neither which compared to Flying Lotus or Bonobo. That, and the fact that I was entirely too obsessed with Inuyasha (to be much more precise, his older brother/typical bishounen Sesshomaru)

Inuyasha wasn't the only anime featured on this wonderful channel, Adult Swim has a rather large andwonderful selection of anime. Sadly,

it only occurs around the hours of

11PM through 6 AM on Sundays

(honestly, who's going to be

awake that late when the next

day is a weekday unless they're

high as a fucking kite?) My favorites include, Cowboy Bebop, Escaflowne, Ghost in the Shell, Case Closed FTW, Blood+, Trigun, Death Note, Neon Gennesis, holy hell, way too many to count.

Now, this particular bump combines not only some syced up beats, but some kick ass photography and one of my most favorite anime ever, FLCL. I'm sure everyone in the world has watched this show. (You can tell when an anime is good when both its Japanese and English Dub are both exceptional)

Anyway, HaruHaru Haruko--the anime doesn't specify whether this is actually her name or not--is a pink-haired space alien who rides a freaking vespa and tears out this poor kids brain and makes television set-esque robots come out in some little dreary town with a giant iron on the top of the hill. It doesn't get much better then that. Actually, wait, it does. The Pillows, a J-Rock band with as much creativity for their album covers as Asian Kung Fu Generation, does most of the soundtrack. They. Are. Awesome.

Perchance to L

When in doubt, lie, lie, lie.



It doesn't get me very far, usually. Today, I am obsessing over L. L is from Death Note, I figure I should change this into, Lexi's rants and angerful hate messages and going gaga over shit that I really shouldn't. Big deal, I'm sure everyone's done it before. Anyway, if you don't know Death Note, you either a) are not asain b) aren't a nerd or c) are just dumb. Honestly, I'm sure some kid with lots of pimples who's either too scrawny or too fat has come up to you before wearing an "I love vampires" shirt and caked makeup with an assortment of belts and fishnet over hands with Death Note in hand or a large L over his binder. There's like a hundred at my school.

Anyway, L is just fucking awesome. He's an honest bad ass. He also looks a little weird, but when fate sucks your cock like it obviously does for this guy, you can overlook shit like that.
