I needed a small excuse to make an update before the DVD comes out on Tuesday, and a post to AFSM provided it. I would've done my two cents for the episodes Bob put up last week, but I haven't had time to yet. The post I put up is a good post someone made about US animation versus Japanese animation, I'm sure you'll like it, head over to the misc section to see it.
Now, as you all have known since the day the date for the DVD has been announced that I would be writing an editorial for it. That still holds true, and I want to give all of you a ballpark of when I'll be watching it and typing up the editorial and posting it. I pre-ordered the DVD through amazon.com, so I estimate it will be here by Wednesday, which works out well for me. If it gets to my house on Wednesday, then when I open it, I'll check out the back and inside covers and the features. To ensure that the DVD doesn't hinder my schoolwork any worse, I'll be doing my homework after going through the features. I probably shouldn't have too much homework, so I will probably get online for a little bit before dinner. Then after dinner, I'm going to watch straight through all seven episodes subbed. I want to do the sub first so that way I can see the episodes again the way I like them, and won't be so critical for the first veiwing. ^_^ Then, after enjoying the sub and seeing how it was translated compared to the VKLL sub which I can somewhat remember, even after watching the CWi dub this summer, I'll go through as many of the uncut dubbed episodes as I can before bed. Then, Thursday, there should only be one or two episodes left, so I'll watch them when I get home from school. Then I'll do my homework, eat dinner, go to Jazz Band practice, and come home. When I get home from Jazz Band, all the episodes should have been watched and my notes taken down, I'll write the editorial and it should be up by the end of the night. Hopefully, things will go well and this will happen. However, if the DVD doesn't arrive in my mailbox by Wednesday, then I'll be watcing the sub when I get home from Area All State Band on Saturday night, and the uncut dub on Sunday, having the editorial up on Sunday night, or Monday afternoon, depending on how long it takes me to type up. Reviewing of the cover and features will only take a few minutes, so I'll do that as soon as I get the DVD obviously. The editorial will be written the same way as I watch it. Cover and features first, sub second, uncut dub third, and any last words I have last. I hope you all enjoy all the SMS stuff coming out on Tuesday, it looks to be very promising! I can't wait!
