[Update] Computer build has changed!

Well, with a couple changes to my build. I've decided to shell out a little bit more for a more powerful graphics card, one that should last me for a couple years. In fact, depending on the circumstances, I may get the 780 Ti for added reassurance. In addition, I switched out the RAM considering that the one I had was not compatible with the CPU, the RAM is now more powerful and from a more trusted brand. The PSU was also switched to Corsair because I trust them more than Thermaltake.

Finally, I added a small bit of extra cooling for my processor in the form of a liquid cool. This should help me be able to overclock a small bit to enhance the computer a small bit.

Anyways, here is the updated build:

As you can see, the price has increased a good $400 dollars.
As I've said in the last post, this is not a final decision, as something else may become available in the future.

Well... I am building a new computer this summer...

I need it...

Like terribly bad...

I am missing out on so much with such a mediocre computer...

So, since I'm getting paid next summer for about 3 months, I am going to save up my money and gather enough so I can get the build of my dreams! I'm still finalizing details on whether or not I need a cooling system other than air. However, if you wish to see my build, check it out below:


Short post, but it'll come into fruition soon, once I can actually record League and play at the same time...

[SPOILERS] Naruto Chapter 674 Review/Thoughts

[WARNING: SPOILERS PREVALENT IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE MANGA TO THIS POINT]

Yet another Wednesday and yet another release of my all time favorite manga, Naruto.

I am Darth Sidious! The True Lord of the Sith!
In this weeks manga, the fight between Naruto and Sasuke vs. Madara begins with a Senjutsu-powered lightning attack from Madara, in which both Naruto and Sasuke were able to counter it. With an observation, Madara activates a type of Limbo on himself, making him theoretically invisible. However, both of them are able to counter it in a way. Naruto, being able to sense it can help Sasuke, who can actually see him pinpoint and attack him more easily.

Madara, after finding this out, is dumbfounded, wondering how it is possible. However, Madara notices that his Sharingan resembles Sasuke's in a way, with straight commas, believing that their may be a connection between them that is beyond just a blood link. This goes into the previous chapters, of how the Sage said that both Madara and Sasuke were a reincarnation of Indra and are somehow connected in that way. Madara lunges for Sasuke's left eye, but is thwarted somehow by Sasuke's Rinnegan. 

Sasuke then gives a command to Naruto, telling him how he'll fight Madara, deciding to take the visible version, while Naruto takes the invisible. Madara realizes that he shouldn't be underestimating their abilities despite their age. With a quick power from Shukaku, Sasuke and Naruto ram their respective jutsu's into Madara, but found out that the shadow was used in his place. Naruto tells Sasuke to go towards the other Madara as he handles the one that is here.

Ouch...
The visible Madara is then seen rushing towards Kakashi in a lunge. Using Kakashi's state of shock, he was able to... LITERALLY GRAB HIS EYES STRAIGHT FROM THE SOCKET and implants it within himself. It then shifts towards Obito requesting that Sakura crush his Rinnegan before Black Zetsu takes over. Sasuke attempts to cleave Madara in half, but it is deemed a failure as he is able to use Kamui to travel himself into the pocket dimension of where Sakura and Obito are.
DUN! DUN! DUNNN!!!!

With the final page, Madara is seen throwing what seems to be a black rod towards Sakura, yelling "I won't let you!" ending the chapter officially with another cliffhanger.









I personally found the manga a bit confusing as it's hard to sometimes see how something happens in just still pictures, but I felt the sense of despair when Kakashi's eyes were removed, or when Madara came in through the Kamui to launch the rod. I overall enjoyed the chapter and I can't wait till the next one.

Anyways, I hope you all have an amazing day!

New League Champion - Braum

Admit it. This dude looks badass.
With the recent teaser, came with the reveal of a new champion, named Braum. In a small summary, he's a tanks support character that works well with characters that have far-casting abilities.

His passive, Concussive Blows is a passive that not only stacks with basic attacks and abilities from himself, but attacks and abilities from his allies. When the stacks accumulate to 4, a stun is prodded on the target. This helps generate a very helpful team-fight mechanic which can be used to better help focus certain targets by stunning them and eliminating them. In addition, it makes him a very powerful support that can be used well in lane, stunning enemies as a poke tool and a getaway tool.




His Q, Winter's Bite is a linear skill shot that activates once it hits the target. Once it hits, it applies a stack of concussive blows, deals magic damage and slows the target by 70% for 2 seconds. This is great for slowing down retreating enemies and applying that first stack of Concussive Blows.









His W, Stand Behind Me is a single target (ally) dash that places the champion in front of the target towards the nearest ally, giving both the user and the target a defensive buff in both armor and magic resistance. On a side note, he can also cast it on himself. This can be useful for not only protecting teammates from skills cots and most global ultimates, but also for either defending himself or getting out from situations.







His E, Unbreakable, calls upon a shield that completely negates the first source of damage that would have hit you or anything behind you. After the initial block, the user will take a certain percentage less damage and block all projectiles for the duration. This is perfect for taking front line damage and preventing some global or long range projectile based spells from affecting your allies.









Finally, his R, Glacial Fissure is a pass-through linear skills shot that knocks up both the first enemy hit, with subsequent enemies being knocked up after for a short duration. In addition, the spell stays for a short period afterwords that slows enemies when they step inside the AoE effect. This can be very good for initiates and teamfights, slowing down enemies and dealing damage.





Overall, my impressions are that I'm excited to try out the character. In fact, I might even buy him when he is released live. I have currently tried him on the PBE, and he looks like he'll have a lot of usage in terms of utility and protection.

Anyways, I'll have the Naruto manga review up tomorrow, so, have a wonderful day!

I do so well as ADC sometimes, but my team is so incredibly inadequate.

So... if you follow my page on Facebook, you'll know that I have been maining the role of ADC for the last week or so... and I've been doing very, VERY good. Enough so, that my team should be winning every single time...

But guess what?

No. They don't win. In fact, most of my "good" ADC games have encountered a loss, because the rest of the team can't handle their lanes and ultimately feed. It makes me frustrated at the fact that I really can't have a good game. Not to the point where I insult others, but to the point where I'll make a blog post about it.

Look at this! 3 out the last 5 games were losses, and it couldn't have been my fault. Not try to sound egotistical, but I did the most for the team, did the most to win the game, but it just never worked out.

Now, I understand that a person may not understand a lane, or a champion. BUT YOU'RE LEVEL 30! Act like it. Try your champions before you attempt PvP, don't just waltz in without a clue of how your champion is supposed to play.

Also, there is a fact of wandering the jungle alone during mid-late game. Please, stay with the team. Most fights carried on after mid-game revolve around team fights, not solo/duo fights in lane. Not only do you run the risk of becoming free gold to the enemy team, but you're not helping your team when they get attacked. This can be very detrimental to the team dynamic and could lead to some nasty counter-effects.

Finally, chasing after enemies who are low, despite the fact that there is still an enemy team present. Just recently, we engaged in a team fight, in which both of our tanks, Alistar and Warwick decided to chase a Ezreal who decided to retreat at a fourth of his HP, leaving me and Zed alone to fight the other 4 members of the team, who had almost full life bars.

Now there are times where mistakes are made, and I can understand that. However, you're supposed to learn from them, not continue doing the same thing and expecting a different result. If you disregard advice given to you politely (no flaming or hate), perhaps, try and follow it. It might improve your skills as a player and it'll make you much more humble in the near future...

Anyways... sorry about this rant... had to get this off my chest... cause yeah.

[NSFW] Funniest comment ever on League.

[WARNING: This contains language and themes that would not be safe for a work/school environment]

So apparently, with the new champion sale/skin schedule released, someone decided to make a story... not a "appropriate story" however.

RIot released a schedule time for a story!
Garen lay in bed, masturbating furiously under the sheets. His pent up sexual frustration from days of battling alongside the many beautiful ladies of the League had pushed him to his limit. Katarina was the woman he loved above all others, and he pictured her perfect body, wanking as he did so. Suddenly there was a creak from the door and Garen froze. ''Big Brother...'' came a voice from the doorway. ''What is it Lux?'' replied Garen in a mildly annoyed tone, ''I-I-I had a bad dream...'' Lux stammered. Garen rolled over, sighing to himself as he said ''It's just a nightmare, go back to bed''. ''But big brother...I'm scared...C-Can't I sleep with you...'' Lux whined softly, and before Garen could object she slipped into bed next to him. Garen gave up on trying to get her to leave, and resolved instead to just get some sleep. Lux cuddled up against her brother, pressing her body against his, her soft breasts pushing against his back. As she wrapped her arms around him one of her hands brushed against Garens still quite erect penis.
''LUX! WHAT ARE YOU-'' Garen yelped, as he lept to his feet from the bed. He then froze, suddenly realising his erect manhood was now on full display. Lux stared at it for a moment then said ''Brother..do you...do you love me?''. Garen was flustered by this blunt question, ''Yes I...WAIT NO! I...well you see..'' he stammered. Lux giggled, ''Oh Big Brother, I love you!'' she said, and then suddenly wrapped her hand around Garen's cock. ''It's so big...I wonder if I can...'' she muttered, leaning in towards Garen's mighty girth. Garen was still in shock from what he had just heard, and was abruptly brought back to his senses as he felt his sister’s mouth around the head of his penis. His little sister was gazing up at him as she sucked on his cock, slowly moving back and forth, teasing him with her tongue. Garen placed a hand behind her head and started to make her bob up and down faster, sucking further down with each bob. She came up for air and gasped ''Now big brother, shove it all in!''. Garen needed no further encouragement, ramming his mighty girth into his sister's mouth. His dick slid all the way to the back of Lux's thoat and she gagged, causing her brother to pull out. ''I'm sure your precious Katarina can't go so deep on your cock'' Lux said triumphantly. She was still smiling as she wrapped her hands around Garen's cock, and began to jerk it. ''Sssh, I'm charging your Laser!'' she giggled as she started to jerk faster, quickly bringing Garen to the edge. Realising that her brother was near his limit Lux opened her mouth wide, stuck out her tongue and closed her eyes in preperation. With a great cry of ''DEMACIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA'' Garen came, splattering Lux's face with cum, and also shooting into her open mouth and onto her waiting tongue. Lux slowly licked her lips, then, eyes still closed, she swallowed her brother's semen.
Not one minute earlier Kassadin was walking past the Crownguard residence. He was contemplating his role as Runeterra's sole defence from the all-consuming void. Should he be the only guardian? Would hid duty even end? Was the world truly worth saving? Did they deserve his protection? As Kassadin pondered all of this and more, he did not realise he was being watched. Hidden in the shadows of the darkened street, a yordle watched the voidwalker silently. Poppy watched Kassadin from the shadows and prepared to strike. Due to a recent decree from the king of Demacia, all void creatures were banned from within the city walls. Kassadin had been using his voidwalking abilities to completely ignore this law, and Poppy looked forward to bringing him to justice for his crimes. With a shout she charged forward, grabbing Kassadin and preparing to slam him into the wall. However her charge continued, phasing through the wall to the other side. (GODDAMNIT RIOT I MEAN REALLY CAN YOU AT LEAST TRY TO FIX THE FUCKING CHARGE BUG WHAT THE SHIT HOW THE FUCK DOES POPPY CHARGE THROUGH THE WALLS ANYWAY I MEAN REALLY HOW HARD CAN IT BE TO FIX THIS GODDAMN STOP SHITTING OUT NEW CHAMPS AND FIX THIS IM BEGGING YOU ARGGHGHGHGHGH) Kassadin and Poppy appeared on the other side of the wall just in time to hear a great shout of ''DEMACIAAAAAAAAAAAAA''. They were both frozen in shock as they watched Garen ejaculate over his sister's face. They watched in abject horror as Lux swallowed her brother's semen. Lux opened her eyes, immediately spotting the two intruders and freezing up on the spot. There was a long silence, then, with a burst of void energy, Kassadin riftwalked away.

Sorry that Formatting is bad, but I copied and pasted it as is.

My childhood has been restored!

Apparently, the wonderful people at Sony have brought back many of my favorite games from my childhood to PSN for a dollar each! A DOLLAR!

Holy sh*t. Back then, those games would've cost around thirty to forty dollars itself, maybe even more. The fact that they're selling these wonderful games makes me giddy. I can't wait to replay them again, to remember the awesomeness and to experience the nostalgia. Perhaps I can finally beat them!

In case you're wondering, a link to the official store is here!

Also, here are the games that I have bought. Eight in total.
1. Crash Bandicoot







2. Crash Bandicoot 2







3. Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped







4. Crash Team Racing (CTR)







5. Gex: Enter The Gecko







6. Spyro the Dragon







7. Spyro: Year of the Dragon







Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage







Love you Sony! I'm gonna be playing these on my stream later today! Check me out at the top of the page!

[PBE 04/18/2014] Bot Enemies have a chance of being on Blue.

Well, since I have a blog now, I might as well keep those updated on the PBE (Public Beta Environment) of League of Legends. This will be the first issue, so expect more in depth ones as they come out.

Many of you know, when you play Co-Op vs. Ai, you're always placed on the blue side of the map (The bottom left) and this has caused some troubles for those who are starting PvP, as they're placed on the purple side of the map (top right). As of now, Riot is testing out a feature that gives games a 50% chance to have switched sides.
Now the players can experience what it's like to be against enemies
on a completely different perspective.
It's currently on PBE and will most likely be introduced into the next Live patch. Looking forward to it!

Signing out!

I've gotten addicted to Euro Truck Simulator... T_T

You know, the game where the only objective is to transport goods from point A to point B. However, the game itself is actually really addicting once you get used to the mechanics and the driving. Perhaps it's in my nature to enjoy the more simple and less complex games that are presented to me.
Ever just feel like saying "F**k it, I'm going to go drive
a truck for fun!" I did.
Lately, ever since I've bought the "legit" version on Steam for about $7.50, I've been playing it at least once a day for two hours. The game feels so relaxing, yet keeps your attention as you have to watch for other vehicles, avoid the breakage of laws and keep yourself on the road. Playing with a keyboard makes the game both easy, and yet hard. There isn't much to really control when you're using a keyboard, and it's hard to stay in a lane when the wheel turns entirely around.

It's strangely addicting to drive as a normal person...
rather than given no rules or expectations. 
However, grabbing a simple joystick can not only make your driving seem much more authentic and easier, but it'll also improve your ability to concentrate more on other things as you're driving. If you want to go a step further, just take a steering wheel and a pair (or more) of pedals to get into some real realistic driving. Personally, the game is possibly one of the best games in the simulation genre, with stunning graphics, well-thought out interfaces and features, and quite-frankly, I really enjoyed the idea that there are rules and expectations to follow.

Now, not only do you gain a sense of satisfaction and enjoyment, you also increase your attention span and the ability to maintain patience as you're driving down a long route delivery, or waiting for the traffic to break up.

Perhaps it's weird, but I really enjoy the game, not because of the graphics nor the fact that cars are used, but I love the core value of the game and the fact that all the features are there, no (unwanted) DLC, no stupid/insane learning curve or memorization needed, no unfair routes or impossible missions. Just pure gameplay and enjoyment.

Perhaps, y'all should try the game as well, especially if you enjoy driving or relaxing. Oh, did I forget to mention, they have an in-game radio that allows for use of your music... or internet radios.

Anyways, kind of a personal post, but I had nothing else to write... so what the hell.

How I came to like... I mean love Kuroneko.

I'm sure, many of you know who Kuroneko is. If not, she is a character from Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii (Oreimo for short, My Little Sister Can't Be This Cute in English) and is one of the main characters in the story.

I first started the anime after a recommendation from a friend during a week of boredom. I decided, what the hell, might as well. I went to download the series and did so after the first hour. I watched the first episode and felt, like meh. I didn't it until months later. I wasn't as big of an anime fan as I am now, but I felt that there wasn't enough action or anything.

So basically, the anime went on hiatus for a while. Another week, in which I was bored, I decided to retry the anime out. I had also grown out of my "no action, no watch" attitude and actually took the time to watch it. It was actually quite enjoyable, lots of humor and a bit of romance in the first season.

Then came the second episode (I believe) in which Kirino meets Saori and Kuroneko from a club. I did kind of find her attitude really hilarious, especially when she put Kirino in her place. Not only that, but she was really cute, more so than any other character. The way she spoke cryptically and chunnibyou'ish made her a more enjoyable to bear her sometimes, unneeded behavior. I continued to watch on, to find out that she is really kind of lonely, and would actually likes attention.

The fact that her affection and like for Kyousuke really made me go HHHHNNNGG!. It came an obsession when she admitted that she liked Kyousuke more than just a friend, and her way she expressed was the best thing ever. In addition, the fact that Kyousuke liked her back (I liked the MC) made it that much better, meaning that there would be a chance. I mean, those two were meant for each other, no matter how you look at it. Even more so than any other character.
I mean... who could resist this? DAMN IT KYOSUKE!
I was disappointed to find out that Kuroneko would rather let Kirino have a happy ending rather than herself, and basically broke up with Kyousuke. But I also find it admirable that Kyousuke cried so much about it, more so than anything else which further motioned that they should be together.Eventually, she just became one of my favorite female protagonists ever. I hope they make a type of spin-off about Kuroneko, just like they do with Toaru series.

Anyways, not very descriptive, but it just happened.

Kuroneko.

[SPOILERS] Naruto Chapter 673 Review/Thoughts

[WARNING: SPOILERS PREVALENT IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE MANGA TO THIS POINT]

Today, the next chapter of Naruto was released... and it was simply amazing. Action was definitely prevalent throughout the chapter, with quite a bit of shockers during and near the end.

Two words however: Lava Rasenshuriken.

Right away, Naruto uses the power of Son Goku (Yonbi) to infuse his Rasengan with Lava chakra to develop a new type of Rasengan. Perhaps it's a mixture of fire, earth and fire as well, considering the blades looked identical to the wind-style variant. He uses this to send Madara flying into the tree, causing a quite of bit of damage. However, Madara can hear the tree speaking to him, telling him to absorb the tree, in which he does. The tree disappears as he does so.

Naruto speaks with Lee and assures that Gai will be fine, saying that he feels that he has the power to do anything he wants.

It then switches over to Sasuke, asking whether or not the Nidaime could possibly teleport him towards the war zone in which Naruto is present.

It transitions to a part in which Sakura thanks Obito for assisting Naruto and Naruto ponders his reason as to why he can feel the other half of his power. Madara goes into a small speech, declaring himself invincible and that he can't beat him, in which Naruto denies it, saying that he won't beat him by himself. Sasuke appears next to him, spouting "We will... defeat you together!!" as he holds two rods and six spinning balls around his body.

A close up shows Sasuke with a normal Sharingan in one eye, but a mixture of the Sharingan and the Rinnegan in the other, definitely telling us that he has the "Juubigan" as I like to call it.
Madara observes that Naruto inherited the Senjutsu of the Sage, while Sasuke awakened the Rinnegan, in which he deems futile, considering that he has both, declaring that this final fight will determine who is the strongest, and may very well be the last fight of the Naruto series.

To my personal opinion... This chapter was amazing. The power ups for both MC's left me giddy and slightly reminiscent of Dragon Ball Z. Also, considering that Madara is the strongest character as of yet, this could very well be the end of such a long and amazing manga. In addition, finally seeing friends reunited in battle as they overcome their biggest challenge is something that I've always wanted to see from this show. I can't wait to see what happens next!

So, this is my first legit post on my blog, this'll happen every week for Naruto. I will also be doing a fair amount of reviews of different anime's and manga's that I have finished. So,

Kuroneko.

Hello My Friends!

It is I, Kuroneko from The Power of Anime Facebook page here to welcome you all to a blog that I have just created. Not only is this a personal blog, but it'll also be a place for me to put more, how should I say it, ecchi photos without needing to worry about repercussions with my friends on Facebook.

As you all know, I enjoy Japanese culture more so than my own. I enjoy anime and manga just as much as anyone else and I've been a fan for a while now. In addition, I am an avid gamer, putting a lot of time into games that I enjoy and some not so much. I've logged in over 1,600 hours on Steam, own a PS3, along with a dozen other older consoles from my childhood.

Most of the content in this blog will persist of personal events and thoughts, game reviews as I finish or play them, anime/manga reviews and I watch/read them and some picture spams as I find them. There are also some other things that I may do, but haven't found an opportunity to do so.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy the blog, hopefully I can make it entertaining as I can.
