He’s my new CO I think he has aged pretty well despite being a butter bar…but he is damn good, I mean real good.
It seems that for now I will have a bit of Internet access courtesy of Uncle Sam although the training schedule looks brutal and having to share one washing machine and dryer with a bunch of mud caked sailors with no booze around means I will not have much time to loiter on the interwebs doing whatever I please. This was the first time I spent Thanksgiving away from my folks and while I have much to be thankful for there is much to be bitter about. Dealing with a bunch of whiny sailors is enough to drive me insane and I grow weary of hearing, “I am cold, when will my stuff arrive, can I trade my M-16 for an M-4, and 00bama is killing us all…” So yeah sailors bitching and moaning while in garrison is enough to make my ears bleed, I assume it only gets worse once we really go some where far far away and they’ll still complain about taxes despite paying none… At any rate this change of situation means a few changes are in store on my side of things, some might be big, some might be so small you’d never notice until I tell. So without further ado Prince Ali has called for a Jihad to liberate Kurdistan from the clutches of the insolent Jihad-kun and his Azadistani harlot. As a Crusader ally of the great Prince Ali, 00bama has called upon the Flag Fighters, AEU no Ace, Katie, and Choubu and the rest of the Federation to oppose the hated Azadistani occupiers and end their unjust occupation once and for all. Thankfully I will not be serving under Bushido Bob and Billy Goat but was assigned under a Gary Biaggi. So in preparation for the orbital drop into New Mombasa I need a few things…
So far I have at my disposal three 465 GB encrypted containers that need to be stuffed full of anime, so far I have a few things including Macross 7, VOTOMS, Gundam X, 8th MS Team, Gundam 0083, Canaan, True Tears, Skip Beat!, Shin Mazinger Z etc. I should be able to keep up with some new series but I think it is time to do a bit of retro blogging of stuff I never got around to. So seeing as how time is of the essence I will not have much time to look for stuff to bring with me, thus I need recommendations from all corners of the Federation to give me series to watch and perhaps blog about while killing me some Celestial Being and some Kataron Terrorists. Sadly due to time constraints I doubt I will have limit myself in tossing images of questionable relevance, however I hope to keep it as fun as possible for it will be the only semblance of normalcy I will have for sometime. So comrades who is up for some retro blogging, and what would you have me blindly suffer through? (Note: While I may not be able to respond in a timely manner I will be looking for recommendations periodically.)
Yeah 2LT. Biaggi isn’t one to beat around the bush.
He doesn’t bullshit much either.
He likes to be very honest…
And he so far he hasn’t killed anyone who didn’t deserve it…
2LT likes to use intimidation as well as force to carry the point.
Terrorists seem to bore Mr. Biaggi.
They made him go through the winning hearts and minds class, the results were kind of mixed…
He certainly curses like a sailor.
It’s because of him we have to spend more time at the gym.
Some time the 2LT gets a little creepy, glad he’s on my side.
Yeah I’ll be going along with these guys but at least I get a Scopedog out of the deal!
I cannot wait to start doing this.

VOTOMS! That stuff needs more love around the tubes.
VOTOMS would be cool to see blogged. Or 08th MS Team or 0083 perhaps. I’d almost say Macross 7, but I’m considering that one myself in the future.
As for recommendations, perhaps (not sure if you’ve seen these or not) Heroic Age, Patlabor, Uchyuu Senkan Yamato, or Last Exile. Or blog KimiKiss if you’d have any interest in doing so. I’m about 60% done with that one and I’d love to read your take on it.
Wouldn’t mind 0083 or 08th MS Team both where alright shows, Macross 7 not bad either.Glad to see you back!
I wouldn’t mind 0083 or VOTOMS being blogged. If you were blogging Votoms, would you blog based on arc?
0083 Stardust Memory. It’s my favorite thing in the whole franchise. It’s not the best, but it has so much of the stuff that I love.
The great part about blogging this show, is that you’ll be able to comment on both OYW shows AND Zeta Gundam. Seriously you’ll have a ball discussing Gundam as a whole writing from 0083. And maybe this time don’t be too harsh on my boy Gato — we already know he’s carrying some serious survivor’s guilt.
Lt. South Burning though… that gentleman needs more love.
G GUNDAM! thats all i want, i’ve been craving it ever since the macross retro blog started..MUST HAVE.
Anything Gundam UC or even better LOGH.
I still haven’t watched anything Votoms except the “Red Shoulder Document – Roots of Treachery” and I don’t want to be spoiled.
LOGH is as everyone knows amazing.
Zeta Gundam
Banner of the Stars
Maison Ikkoku?
Of course if you want to do REAL retro blogging you could to the Mobile Suit Gundam to ExecutiveOtaku’s macross
Crusader,
I haven’t checked up on your blog in a while, but I saw this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQgGUEnMZrg) and immediately thought of you. If you are already aware of the awesomeness that is Maritan, my apologies.
As for suggestions, I’m afraid there our tastes don’t seem to overlap much. However, I recently saw Baccano, and I found it incredibly enjoyable, so you might want to give it a shot if you haven’t already.
