Title: Angel Beats!
Synopsis:
In a high school that serves as a way station to the afterlife, newcomer Otonashi meets a girl named Yuri, who draws him into the SSS, a faction that battles for humane treatment of those in this purgatorial world.
Angel Beats! takes place at a high school acting as a limbo, where students learn to give up any lingering attachments they still have from life before continuing to an afterlife or reincarnation. Those in the afterlife school can still feel pain as they did when they were alive, as well as dying again, only to awaken later with no injuries. The story follows the main protagonist Otonashi, a boy who lost his memories of his life after dying. He meets Yuri, a girl who invites him to join the Afterlife Battlefront (死んだ世界戦線 Shinda Sekai Sensen (SSS)?), an organization she founded and leads which fights against God for the cruel fates the SSS members experienced in life. In the SSS, there is a four-girl band named Girls Dead Monster that acts as a diversion during missions, and an organization called the Guild that mass produces weapons out of dirt and supplies them to the SSS. Their only enemy is Angel, a girl with supernatural powers who fights against the SSS. Angel creates her powers with the aid of a computer program called Angel Player. The rest of the afterlife school is populated by a large number of “normal” students and teachers Yuri deems “non-player characters” (NPCs) as they are not human, but look and act the part.
As Otonashi begins to get used to things, the first of the characters to fulfill her dream and pass on is Iwasawa, the leader of Girls Dead Monster, who disappears in front of a crowd of people. Angel, whose real name is Kanade Tachibana, loses her position as student council president and the vice president Naoi succeeds her. Naoi uses powers of hypnosis to control NPCs to fight for his own interests against the SSS, but Otonashi stops him after acknowledging Naoi’s existence and he subsequently joins the SSS. Otonashi regains his memories with the aid of Naoi’s hypnosis and agrees to continue with the SSS. Otonashi befriends Kanade and invites her to join in on SSS activities. After Otonashi fully remembers the details of his life and death, he starts cooperating with Kanade to help the other SSS members move on, and Kanade is reinstated as student council president in accordance with their plan. Yui, another Girls Dead Monster member, is the second of the characters who passes on.
When mysterious shadow monsters begin attacking the SSS, Takamatsu gets devoured by one, only to reappear as an NPC. Otonashi reasons with the other SSS members and many of them agree to pass on in lieu of becoming an NPC, including the rest of Girls Dead Monster, Chaa of the Guild, and several unnamed members. Yuri destroys computers responsible for the shadow program, which was programmed to activate when love was detected in the world. Those who are left—Otonashi, Yuri, Kanade, Hinata and Naoi—hold a graduation ceremony where they thank each other for their support. After Naoi, Yuri and Hinata pass on, Otonashi learns that Kanade’s regret was not being able to thank him for the heart she received from Otonashi after his death. Otonashi is heartbroken after she thanks him and passes on, as he has fallen in love with her. In the epilogue, a reborn Otonashi and Kanade meet each other on the street in the real world. In an alternative epilogue, Otonashi is shown to have stayed behind in the afterlife to help people pass on.Star Rating:
Review: This anime was not what I expected! It was so much better. It started out funny and thought provoking. By the last episode if you’re not crying there is something wrong. The story is deep and complex, with a lot of surprises thrown in throughout the series. And it’s nice because everything is all wrapped up at the end. The ending is sad but great at the same time.
Warnings and Praises: The dubbed version has lots of great voice over actors (I’m sure if you watch anime you’ll recognize a few) If you’re into J-pop the music is great too! Only reason I didn’t give this one full 5 stars is I’m not sure if I could watch it again. Not because it’s not watchable but because it’s such a tear-jerker towards the end. Only down side I would say is it’s a little slow at first and the episodes up to about 6 just seam the same. Just keep watch!
Title: Demon King Daimao(Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou)
Synopsis: Akuto dreams of being a magician — part of his culture’s most respected class — but a test at magic school reveals that he’s destined to become a Demon King. This fate follows him like a dark cloud, creating rivalries and prejudices in his school.
Plot Summary: The story of “love, magic, and battles” revolves around Akuto Sai, a boy who aims to become part of his country’s highest order of magicians and contribute to society. On the day he is admitted into the Constant Magical Academy, his aptitude test predicts the following: “Future Occupation … Devil King.” Thus begins his difficult school life in which he is resented by his studious female class head, desired by a girl with mysterious powers, and guarded by a beautiful female android.

Review: This anime sounded great & started out pretty good. It quickly gets weird. It only has one season (12 episodes) so it starts to move very fast & they explain things in an odd way. I think this is one of those animes where things are lost in translation and might be better watched subbed in Japanese. Following the story gets a little hard around episode 4 or 5 where they start to introduce new characters that really have no point.
Warnings and Praises: Lots of nudity and adult themes. A few times it boarders on being Hentai, so be warned. The dragon looks cool and the animation is nice for the most part. The animation is some episodes becomes super cheese and then goes back to normal.
KK so here goes my first review ^_^
Title: Rosario + Vampire
Synopsis: (from Wikipedia) A 13-episode anime adaptation produced by Gonzo and directed by Takayuki Inagaki aired in Japan from January 3, 2008 to March 27, 2008 on Tokyo MX, Chiba TV, and TV Kanagawa, with later runs on TV Saitama, TV Osaka, TV Aichi, Aomori Broadcasting Corporation, and Kids Station. Six DVD compilation volumes were released between April 25 and September 26, 2008,[5][6] and a DVD/Blu-ray box set was released on January 29, 2010.[7] The anime quickly became notorious for its excessive use of fanservice in the form of panty shots, leading the series to be censored on certain channels during its TV broadcast.[8]
A second 13-episode season, entitled Rosario + Vampire Capu2 (ロザリオとバンパイア CAPU2 Rozario to Banpaia Kapucchū?), aired on TV Osaka between October 2 and December 24, 2008 with subsequent runs on Tokyo MX, Mie TV, Chiba TV, TV Kanagawa, TV Saitama, Gifu Broadcasting System, Inc., Aomori Broadcasting Corporation, and Kids Station. Six DVD volumes were released between December 21, 2008 and May 22, 2009,[9][10] and a DVD/Blu-ray box set was released on March 19, 2010.[11]
The opening theme for the first season is “Cosmic Love” and the ending theme is called “Dancing in the Velvet Moon”. For the second season, the opening theme is “DISCOTHEQUE” and the ending theme is “Trinity Cross”; all songs in the series are performed by Nana Mizuki, the voice actress for Moka Akashiya in the series. The anime is licensed in North America by Funimation Entertainment,[2] and released both seasons on December 20, 2011.[12][13][14][15] Funimation initially encountered production issues from the Japanese licensors, causing a series of delays with their release date. Originally intended for release on March 19, 2011, the release date was pushed back to May 17, 2011,[16] and later to July 19, 2011.[17] The anime is also licensed in Australia and New Zealand by Madman Entertainment, who already holds licensing rights to the manga, and will release both seasons in 2012.[3]Star Rating:
Review: Lots of silliness!! This anime has a lot of panty shots and boobs, lots of boobs. It’s a funny anime with really no point. But a good watch if your in the mood to laugh. All the characters are like-able and silly. But every episode in the first season is pretty much the same. Something happens, the main character saves the day…..
Warnings and Praises: Warning: Adults only, this anime is not for kids. Lots of adult humor, and pointless panty shots. But it’s an anime that at the same time makes fun of that, so it’s a good laugh. Only 2 seasons but the manga has something like 14 volumes. So it’s kind of wrapped up at the end & kind of not. The narrater bat (Co Buddy) is so funny! Weeeee (watch it & you’ll be saying it too)

My DA gallery http://enchantmentsart.deviantart.com/
Main website http://www.featherheart.comBest tip I can give is practice your pattern on some cheap fabric first. Say like a cheap felt or cotton before moving on to you fabric that might be more expensive. When I first started making plush I bought every book I could get my hands on LOL and joined every message forum that had anything to do with plush/teddy bears. Here is a really great forum for stuffed animal makers http://www.teddy-talk.com/index.php

http://www.ebay.com/sch/featherheartcreations/m.html?item=290644616646&sspagename=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649&_trksid=p4340.l2562I asked about the gold detailing & they said there was none. Also asked about other colors showing or hues of purple & they said they where flat black.
After I asked those questions I got this e-mail back:
I was not familiar with Windstone Editions Dragons, while this item was put up i was researching on the black dragons, when i could not find any black dragons, i contacted windstone dragons to see if they made solid black colored dragons, i was told there were only a few made as give aways and 6 made for a store in pasadena. And there appears to be alot of controversy over these so i felt it best to close the auction to confirm these are not repaints.
So sorry everyone! I didn’t mean to bug them with questions so they would pull the auction 🙁 I was almost thinking about bidding myself hoping they where the black dragons 🙁
