Vampire knight manga and anime characters

Vampire Knight is going well!!! I just finished reading Chap 42 on OneManga (the label on the right hand side). And that is the chapter which was recently uploaded on ONEMANGA! Come on Chap 43 please! It is getting quite exciting! Really appreciate your comments if you have any~

The official website and more is found here. That was where I got all my pictures from!

Except for the manga ones...

There are also news on the website about the superb voices behind the anime. So unlucky that I can't understand Japanese even though I have studied it for quite some time. The website Japanese is way past my Japanese! HERE!!!!

Crew members and the ones up the front are holding the scripts which obviously mean that they are the voices.

Zero Kiryu voice actor, Yuuki Cross voice actress and Kaname Kuran voice actor. Yay

On the website was this cool design...it is actually fortune telling cards. COOL! But man! I keep getting great misfortune!! Aw!!! Why always Akatsuki Cain????! Great Misfortune?! Aw man...


VAMPIRE KNIGHT manga and anime distinctions

The following opinions and comments are made solely on the comparison of these animated images that I have on my blog. Shadows play an important part in conveying moods, and unfortunately, I do not have the time to watch the episodes!! Plus I do not want to spoil the story for many!!! Er...please correct my mistakes.

Also, if you have any comments of your own about what you noticed by the way each character is drawn and express, or any other comments for that matter, you are welcomed!

Yuuki Cross is the main girl of the story. Unfateful twist for her. She looks way better drawn in the manga.

Kaname Kuran....to be honest in the manga, the way Kuran is drawn does portray someone who is certainly in the highest class and hierarchy of vampires. And the personality matches the type of face that is drawn by the artist. Well done!


Zero Kiryu. Poor boy! Oh I like the manga drawings! So gooood! Zero looks so serious in here and superbly drawn! His emotions are conveyed so strongly in the manga with the use of shadows, shading and angles!

Hanabusa Idou is a vampire and a very faithful person. Doesn't he seem reliable??? hahaa does the face say it all?

Akatsuki Cain and his manga form. He is a vampire but I have a hard time distinguishing him and Hanabusa Idou in the manga!! I am not really "up to date" (so to speak) with his character....

Kaien Cross, the father of Yuuki. He is cheerful and always reassuring...my dad is like that too! Wears glasses and has a calm warm face.

Vampire Hunter-
Yagari Touga. He has this sinister look eh? I am not sure whose side he really is on because he can be unpredictable! This manga image depicts it.

Seiren who is a minor character. Vampire too and very serious...she is good at fighting.

Senri Shiki....I am not too sure about his role since him and Hanabusa looks alike at times and I can't distinguish them because I do not pay attention to the specific details (I mean by hair because that is the biggest difference). Ah I can't find a good manga picture without speech bubbles coming in the way heh.

Kiryu Ichiru ( I think ) Twin brother of Zero. He is very cold-hearted and often has a spaced out look at times. None the less he is awesome just like his brother!


Takuma Ichijou looks like Zero's twin! I am not sure if he is up to something bad or not. Maybe he is but he is still under Kaname Kuran....I have no idea eh?


Luca Souen who is in love with Kuran. She plays a very very minor role too!

Rima Touya....new girl? not sure....don't tell me if it will ruin the story for me! But I am sure that she appeared early in the anime so she must be in the manga too! I ccan't remember.....

Ok come to think of it, the animated pictures do not seem to look like the ones in the anime. ahaha.

Movies, Cds and....

Week 3 of university...I know that these weeks will pass by flying colours because I am seriously packed with everything!! From hanging out and catching up with my best buddies to crunching numbers on the computer for my finance assignment....playing hard and working hard!!

I AM soooo bad for sacrificing my sleep for computer games just to calm myself down before I go to sleep!

Anyway,


Everybody has been watching Batman the dark knight. WOW! It must be nice eh?? The movie was so great that people have been harassing me to watch it and watch it on the mega mega screen. I do not want to! Reason: mainly because I have grown up with the comics and original cartoon show, I don't like any adaptations! eg. X-men....it was terrible...end of story.

But more importantly, I don't want to waste my money watching it since I am CONSERVATIVE!
Stop forcing me to watch BATMAN THE DARK KNIGHT!

Speaking of which, I think that I may have been run in to a bit of an irony statement today. I spent $ on House season 1 and 2 plus 2 Westlife CDs!!!

Westlife....the awaited moment where I hoped that prices could go down so that I could buy their cds was seized during a breath-taking episode just today! My breath-taking moment was.....trying to decide which CDs I should buy after finding 4 in a HUGEEEE pile of CD flicking for more than half an hour hehe.

hahaha to be honest....the Warehouse was slashing down sooo many cds and dvds that something as well known and rather expensive (I consider $30 expensive for one dvd) such as...Pirates of the Carribean 2 with an extra disc special edition slashed down to $10.....I just can't say no to that!!!

However, I am always conscious of my spending habits........so I decided that now is just a bit too much for me so I stopped. haha and I do know that the prices will be there for a little while longer so I will just wait for a while.

In the end...I got the 1st and the 2nd CD!

1st CD

2nd CD

And we have this CD from ages ago hehe. LOVELY!

HOUSE!!! WOW! Good thing that my brother turned on the tv because he was curious about it. I SAY....House beats Grey's Anatomy and Scrubs! Maybe because I really like deep emotional sentimental values drawn from each episode. haaha although Scrubs is just entertainment and Grey's Anatomy leans towards the drama side.

Huge Laurie is a brilliant actor! I just find the House drama so real and not unbelievable!! It really captures the essence of paramedics in and out of the hospital rooms, and the solving of very menial and complex errors of the body.


I find it sooooo compelling! Polarity polarity!

hahaha House is tooo relaxed! Having coffee whereas his 'minions' are doing all the work. Love this picture! It is such a crackup.

Also,


I can't forget the lunch that Sherry shouted me today! THANK YOU honey! hahaha sherry andy and I went to eat at ATT with Taifu's church members. Some of which I haven't caught up with a very long time but have met when we were 10! Yip! Nice to get to know the rest of you! Alan has crazy hair ahha.







GET a hold of this stadium! You know it! The Beijing Olympics 2008 Water Cube!


OH IT IS vibrant! The building itself is filled with millions of optic fibres that gives the stadium a glowing view throughout all 4 of its corners! Spectacular!!!

Well all my ramblings....has come to a halt. Have a good weekend all.

Current Mood: Going steady but sleepy!
