Style King Reveal, Anime Review, and other news.

Hey everyone, I'll start by unveiling a new design that i made, specifically so the guys could stop hate'n. It seemed that once i revealed the Style Queen design, every guy i showed it too wanted it, go figure. In light of that little dilemma, i here by give you the Style King design:
Sekstyle - Style King
Before anyone asks, yes im planning on making a black version. Once everything is finalized and sales begin to take off, i'll release it. Until then, enjoy.

Now onto one of my favorite things in this world, Anime. I just finished watching Burst Angel. Those of you who follow me on dA or Fb have probably already seen these:
Jo from Burst Angel By Sektr
The show has by far some of the coolest characters ever. However, if your not into the whole "cyberpunk/action" genre, don't watch it. The show itself, is kinda shaky and geared towards that demographic. The story follows a team of mercenaries on a hunt for these things called "glowing brains". The show mixes shooting action with a sort of mecha style. I personally loved every minute of it. There was enough action to keep you entertained, and enough story to keep you interested. The one thing i love the most however, is the character development. A lot of the anime that get bad rep are usually caused by the lack of plot focus. When in reality, if there is nothing in the story to care about... then who cares. Plot and character development are crucial to any decent anime. FMA, Naruto, Bleach, Death Note, hell even Samurai Champloo had this. We call them "Fillers". Now whether or not an anime uses this to its advantage is up to the studio. Obviously 2 seasons of fillers is waaaaaayy too many (Naruto). But if you use fillers to develop the characters as well as the story, then they can be some what tolerable. Thats exactly what Burst Angel did. Every "filler" episode, had just enough plot behind it, to keep you remembering why you were watching it. I was pissed, however with the ending. No spoilers here, but don't be surprised if you get a little angry. Anyway, all in all i'd give it a 4.5/5 definitely worth the watch.
