Finishing Series Review – 1

27 07 2009

Photobucket

In these I’m going to be putting my thoughts and feelings on series that I have just finished (when I remember of-course).

Nazca
Photobucket
So what do Inca warriors and priest, Japan, Re-incarnation and anime have in common… Not much unless of-course you are referring to the anime series Nazca which is a series that is about just those things.

So lets expand on this a little bit, a high school boy and his friends find out they they are the re-incarnations of ancient Inca warriors becuase of a local Kendo master finding out the same thing about himself. It also just so happens that these warriors where involved in a fight over and incredible power that could destroy the world with some aligning with the Inca Warrior Yawaru (The kendo master) or Warrior Bilka (Kyoj the main character).

Okay so their is out plot some reincarnated dudes are fighting over a ancient Inca magical power and of-course have magical powers themselves, well I got to give it to the creator (Tokita Hiroko) I haven’t seen Inca’s in anime before but apart from that the plot is a bit generic but entertaining none the less but what really struck me about the series was the design of the Inca warriors… lets have a look at a some of them.

Photobucket Photobucket

Just look at the clothing, so stylish and the hair I mean the purple hair can defy gravity when it wants to.

Photobucket Photobucket

Feathers in the hair are defiantly in in this series and the priestess outfit…

All joking aside the animation and designs are incredibly well done in this series and don’t seem that silly while your watching it.

Next on the list we have….

Aika R-16 Virgin Mission

So the first episode of the new OVA Aika Zero has just been subbed so I thought I would look it up and found that it was related to a series called Agent Aika which in turn I found was had prequel called the aforementioned. So I thought I would start at the very beginning and this is what I got…

Photobucket

So the “plot”. Aika a 16 year old who has just got her C-Class salvager license gets hired by her fellow class mates and members of the treasure hunting club (which is one of “those” clubs) who want her to take them underwater to solve the mystery of their sempai’s mark (marked in the red ring below).
Photobucket

We now have a plot to drive us forward which in this series, in my opinion, just give the creators a chance to find ways of slowly undressing the cast and offer some amazing camera shots (why shot from the top down when you can go from down up ad get the pants in) but it worth watching for the final scenes and the hillarity that it brigs with it.

So in all we have a series that has a lose plot that is just excuse for panty shots and breasts and compromising positions needless to say I’m now downloading the original series and going to be watching the new series (^_^)

Hope you enjoyed

Life as a Helldesk Operator – 1

27 07 2009

Photobucket

So this is my one of my “things” for this blog, the Helldesk operator taken from my experience working as computer support, with the added “what I would have liked to done to some people” addition.

If you see T.N – that my translation of stupid user talk into English so enjoy.

Life as a Helldesk Operator – 1 – I want to complete my game.

The bosses are away for a “meeting”, meaning they have gone of to play golf at the local course for 9 holes, giving me a good couple of hours of freedom to sit and do nothing, read play whatever flash game takes my fancy this week.

30 minutes in then IT happens, the phone rings.

“Bastards, bloody users just don’t know when to ring.” They always ring at the most inopportune of moments, just about to add another game to my list of complete games.

“Hello computer helpdesk.” Answer as sweet as anything.

“Hi is the computer helpdesk?” The idiot replies.

“… Yes it is, how can I help?” I reply.

“Well I’m using Word and its not copying the text.” Replies my new worst enemy of the day.

“Okay what have you do so far then sir?” Still all sweet.

“Well I’ve used the clicky thing* and made my text go blue and then clicked the right part down and chosen copy but it hasn’t copied it any where.” The local muppet answers.  (*T.N Mouse)

I reply helpfully as always “Well Sir this is a common problem, now I’m going to tell you the quick fix and then we are going to fix it permanently. Okay?”

“Yup that fine.”

“Okay first you need to select where you want to put the copied text. Done that?”

“Yup.”

“Now Right Click and select Paste. Done.” grunt of approval. “Now save the document and close it… by pressing the Red X in the top corner. Well done.” Time to go for the kill.

“Now sir are you admin on your computer.” grunt number two, obviously the user if of a such a high intelligence that the spoken language means nothing to him anymore. “Okay if you go into my computer, then the C Drive, you should see a folder called Windows, go into that now right click on the folder called System32 and run the program called Cleanup and that should fix you problem for good”.

“Thanks very much.”

“Oh one more thing the fix won’t take effect until you restart your computer.”

Okay a quick note here Cleanup is a program I got the system boys to install on ll computers and for the most part it does what it is meant to, cleanup the crap of the computer, except that version we are using has a slight modification in that when it run on a folder called System32 it will go in and delete random dll files, some might call this a bug I call it a permeant fix to any problem.

5 minutes later the user from before calls back.

“Hello Helpdesk I restarted my computer so the “fix” would take effect expect now my computer doesn’t turn on” He seems quite panicked, time to help the poor guy properly.

“Sorry this isn’t the  Computer Helpdesk we deal with Marketing queries let me transfer to them, happen all the time”. When I said help I mean put his call through to one of the myriad of adult phone service and then set up a redirect to a different one each time his number tries to ring mine.

I’m not bitter or anything users just shouldn’t interrupt my game time.





Welcome one Smelkom all

26 07 2009

It has begun!

I have a blog and I’m not afraid to be incoherent on it.

Be prepared for the rambling’s of a soon to be disgruntled ex computer help desk person who’s looking forward to being a computer science student again and has developed a small disliking of of computer illiterates and idiots.

Katana out….
