Oh, insomnia. How I hate you. I haven't gotten anything done in a week. Taking my driving test? Nope. Getting hard facts about TEFL certification courses? Nope. I've seen the sunrise without getting a wink of sleep several times this week.

But, I've found something that distracts me sufficiently from my angsty predicament: The second Kyo Kara Maou PS2 game, Shin Makoku Vacation! Holy hell. It's like playing a fanfic. On crack. Or maybe like watching the anime. They're pretty shameless in cannon, too. I stumbled across the iso of the $140 game on a comm and after a few hours got it downloaded and got an emulator to work with Vista and my horrible little system. I've been playing ever since. It's hilarious but difficult. Me and my denshijisho are toughing it out. I'm trying to get Yuuri and Wolfram married. I know you can. I've seen the caps! But it's harder than it should be. I accidentally won Gunter's favor and Conrad is just too easy to please. Also, how they seem to treat Greta like a possible pairing option, even though she's not in the relationship health gauge chart thing, and it's a little awkward.

I've translated the prologue. And, I've been taking notes. And screen caps. I've figured out how to get to the scene where Yuuri accidentally show's a husband's intimacy to Wolfram and proposes a shotgun wedding over the scandal, but beyond that I'm currently SOL. It's still an awesome scene, though. I love when Dorskaskos busts into the room and starts gloating that he won the castle betting pool on who Yuuri would finally hook up with. And Celi busting out the wedding dresses isn't bad, either.

I'm such a freak. I'll get back to job stuff and sewing soon. Really. I promise.

I don't know???? Have you even seen Kyo Kara Maou? 8D

Well, if you wanted to give it a wirl, you can score the parts here:

  • "Shin Makoku no Kyujitsu" ISO disc image (http://community.livejournal.com/kyou_kara_maou/1283627.html) The Game
  • PCSX2 (http://www.pcsx2.net/) The Emulator
  • South Central Emulation (http://southcentralemulation.blogspot.com/2006/12/ps2-bios-download-scph10000bin-rom1bin.html) The Bios

And here's my translation of the extended Prologue.

noooooooooo, but it sounds like it'd be a fun game to play with you...and yummy's cakes. i might try it out, but i'm slightly concerned my poor old laptop will explode if i try to do anything with it.

ps - yes it is because that 2-minute show is crack-tastic!

noooooot really. as soon as i got home, i plugged in my ps2 only to find that my games had mysteriously vanished. i had the boxes, but no discs. which makes NO sense. so i threw my hands up the air and said "f*ck this" then dragged my boyfriend (who obsessively plays this online game) to a toy store and easily convinced him that video games are awesome and we should start "investing" in some. what won him over? one of the naruto fighting games for ps3; he was like "i want to play that. it looks fun." which made me go "uhhh...yeah?" as long as he's on board for a ps, i'm fine. so i'm definitely have to buy some new games and once jobs get situated better, i'll either have my parents ship me my ps2 or just buy a ps3.

i like any spastic animal...including those that jump on mah face. haha~

Hehe. But, you knew of your boy's weakness for the ninja, yeah? Still, you went through all that trouble to get the PS2 back and you still didn't get to bring it with you??? Lame.

Did your brother steal the games or something? D=

Well, I said it before. There's always the emulators~
