A Monster Bad Romance Vid
I wonder if Lady gaga watches much anime or if this is a coincidence. The cross in the monster as part of the title font and the big anime eyes in the music video. They were so freaky. I thought they came out in the beginning like they’re vampires or creatures born of the abyss.
Also in the vid there’s the attack of the Alexander Mcqueen monster. She had premiered Bad Romance at the Alexander Mcqueen show so I guess that’s understandable. And that polar bear dress was fierce. There’s also a bit of East European feel to it to go along with that Russian sound that she uses in the song. The only thing I thought was really scary was that cat. I don’t know why but it freaked me out.
And the end is a surprise so if you haven’t seen it I won’t spoil it where strangely she looks like Amy Winehouse. I love the vid. What do you think?

The Manga Bible
I just read The Manga Bible: From Genesis to Revelation by Siku and Akin. I liked it. It doesn’t go into too much depth considering that its the entire bible in one volume that around 200 pages. But because it doesn’t go into depth the reader is able to see the progression of time and the cyclical nature of how the Jews would believe in One God then be led astray and how they were brought back again. It also shows the similarity between the types of people chosen by God. No one was flawless.
And Jesus is awesome in here (not that he’s not awesome everywhere else), but I think people have a tendency of showing Jesus as kind of soft. In this book he’s definitely kick ass. And when he think about it he probably had to be. He lasted in the desert for 40 days and 40 nights, turned down the devil, knocked some sense into the Pharisees, the list goes on.
The manga bible provides a slightly different point of view than what you’re probably used to, but there are many points of view when it comes to understanding the bible.

Witch Hunter Robin Takes a Bow
I’ve noticed that a lot of people wonder what Robin from Witch Hunter Robin is doing with the TV in the series opening. I kind of wondered myself, but I guess she’s reminicing just like Madonna in the music video Take a Bow, and trying to touch someone who’s not there. There’s always a hint of something else when it comes to Madonna. But they both see that man that they like (at least implied in the video/anime). Looks kind of similar doesn’t it?
