Defiance 1.6: Kinda fillerish, IMO?
( brief spoilersCollapse )
Elementary 1.23-1.24: Welp, anyone doubting that this show is a decontruction of the Sherlock Holmes canon and the genius/wrangler dynamic has hopefully been convinced?
( spoilersCollapse )
Murder on the Homefront: This is either a stealth Sherlock Holmes adaptation set in 1940 in which Watson is a female reporter who Holmes absconds with form a crime scene to make his new assistant (short version: "Hey there, you didn't faint at the sight of blood and can type. You're my new assistant!" "Uhm, what?") or a fanfic set during the Blitz in which Nancy Drew is Holmes's protegee. Either works. So, yes. Terribly short (Only two episodes! Possibly set up for sequels? That the title isn't something related to the actual mystery plot but rather to the general concept gives me hope.) BBC miniseries about a serial killer who carves swastikas on his victims' tongues and a pathologist who uses early forensics (and girl reporters) to catch him. I am exceptionally iffy on the portrayal of the sole POC in the series, but otherwise enjoyed it considerably. It would probably appeal to fans of Foyle's War and/or The Bletchley Circle, though it has a bit more action and humor than those two, and isn't quite as well written as either.
Revolution 1.18: And once again, Revolution has an episode that has little to do with the promo. (And that was a better episode than the promo would leave you to believe.)
( spoilersCollapse )
And I think everything I'm watching except Defiance, Revolution and Continuum is on hiatus. Maybe i'll finally catch up on Bomb Girls and Nikita, not to mention the last couple episodes of Beauty and the Beast.

i am so very tired of these applications... 
waseda is reinforcing that they only accept students with a 3.0 GPA, even when i tried telling them that grades weren't everything and that i had already 6 years of learning japanese... and now with more recent evaluations, my GPA lowers even further (it's now at 2.56)...
with chonnam, only recently they informed me that the scholarships they had information about in their website are only for graduate students... i am an undergraduate student; i have no idea what to do now and how to get a scholarship with so little notice...

Título: Un agresivo entendimiento.
Autor:  roundedboxes
Fandom: Gintama
Personaje: Gintoki Sakata
Pareja: 7/10 Toushiro Hijikata
Género: Drama. Romance (?)
Rating: PG - 13
Advertencias: - Bueno, ya saben esa advertencia de “relación hombre/hombre”. Y muerte de algunos personajes (O algo así)
Notas: No sabía cómo terminarlo, en cuanto a que no sabía qué hacer con Gintoki, así que el final está de acuerdo a lo que el lector piense.
- Aún tengo dudas con el rating… No hay nada gráfico, pero de todas maneras, sigo teniendo dudas con el rating.
- Ah, si… es un GinHiji/HijiGin, como sea… O un intento. Ketsuno Ana viene después.
( Un agresivo entendimientoCollapse ) |

Training is interesting and I am enjoying it, though admittedly it is only the first day and we haven't started seriously tackling anything new yet.
Weather may be shifting slightly towards warmer (which by now it damn well should be).
