I've added a new doujinshi scan to Oh So Modern Jezebel. Yes, that's all I've done to my domain this year. No, I'm not proud. T-Snet turned 14 at the end of last month but I simply haven't had the time to put together any sort of redesign.

But hey, I did promise if I had anything new to add to OSMJ I'd add it and welp, there you go.

The Time-Stranger Network has a new layout just in time for the domain's thirteenth birthday. Thirteen years, can you believe it? That's some crazy shit right there. The new layout is extremely simple (because I've forgotten how to website) and features art from Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. From memory I believe the first domain layout featured Yurika from Kidou Senkan Nadesico so it hasn't gone full circle, but given the wave of Sailor Moon nostalgia going on right now it still seems vaguely appropriate for an anniversary. Additionally I've amended the "Coming Soon" page and updated the links over at "Linkage".

It is my intent to finish revamping Passionate before the end of the year (holy shit it's hideous right now). Then maybe my Kiddy site because I can actually stand to re-watch her series, unlike Julia. I'M SORRY BLOOD+ BUT YOU HURT ME SO. And then yeah, more ladies or something before I'm forty.

Night Flowers, the approved Silent Möbius series fanlisting has a new layout featuring Katsumi & Roy. It's, err, very pink. I scanned the image from one of my CD singles and yeah, kind of went nuts from there.

I haven't updated anything else. Sorry, I suck.

Horseshoe Fortune, the Worick Arcangelo fanlisting, has some new image codes. VARIETY, PEOPLE. VARIETY. I've also written up a little section of (relatively) fun facts about the character, y'know, to add a bit of /something/ to the listing. You can *~Learn More About Worick~* by clicking here. His standard intro is still located here.

Also READ GANGSTA. and JOIN THE FANLISTING. Because reasons.

Invasion Hit Parade, the approved Dragonaut fanlisting, has a brand new layout. The old one was utter shit so this new look in basic blue is something of an improvement. The images used were scanned from my copies of the Animage x Dragonaut deluxe drama CDs. Because I'm sad like that.

2013-01-12T15:09:32Z

The Time-Stranger Network has a new layout featuring Hamyuts & Mattalast from Tatakau Shisho - The Book of Bantorra. It's basically a revised version of the previous layout because I suck. Happy 2013, everyone!

Oh and if you'd like to know what I anticipate working on this year, check this out. Still not 100% sure on all those projects, but hey, at least I'm thinking about progress, right?

Oh So Modern Jezebel has been revamped. There's a new grey layout (typical!) featuring design sketches of Kitajima. I've additionally redone all the subpage images/thumbnails/etc. for a more consistent overall look. I've also replaced the TV-quality screen caps in the "Creativity" section with DVD-quality caps. It only took me, like, two years. Whoops. Oh and I did some minor edits around and about, fixed a few typos -- that sort of stuff.

Unfortunately I doubt I'll have much more to add to OSMJ in the future, unless Dragonaut gets a BD release or something (highly unlikely). There just isn't that much else to say about a minor character from a shitty 2007 anime series. I'll always try to keep the site in good condition, and will definitely update it if I have something to add, but for the moment this is the last big revamp. Please enjoy it :)

New fanlisting!

Horseshoe Fortune is the TAFL-approved listing for Worick Arcangelo of GANGSTA. fame. You should join because Worick is great and so is GANGSTA. (I basically have no other fandoms at present, could you tell?)

I have some revamps and ideas in the pipeline. If real life ever lets up, I'll get right onto them.

2012-07-14T18:45:21Z

I'm not dead yet.

Faithfulness is the Astharoshe Asran (Trinity Blood) fanlisting that I've adopted from the lovely Nekoi Echizen. Join and stuff.

Bury The Cynics, the GANGSTA. series fanlisting, has had a layout revamp. I've also added a few new codes to choose from. You should definitely join this one too.

And whoops, I used the same background for both layouts. Go team.

The Time-Stranger Network has a new layout featuring Noi from Dorohedoro by Q Hayashida. New front page content has been added in addition to a "Linkage" clean up. Nothing much else though, I'm sorry. SOON, MAYBE.

Queen Takes King, my fanlisting collective, also has a new look now that I have a few more fanlistings in my care. New FLs include:

- Dragonaut -The Resonance- (yes, again)
- Simoun
- Silent Möbius
- Sylia Stingray (Bubblegum Crisis)

Sooo productive.

2012-03-20T15:12:46Z

I've added a new "Snippet" to Black Cherry. It focuses on how difficult it is to tell Reina's genuine feelings from her breakdown-related mental instability. 'Twas just a thought I had.

I'll get to some substantial domain updates eventually, I hope.

2012-02-22T21:54:27Z

So I was supposed to quit with the fanlistings. But then I didn't. Now (re)open and functioning...

- Bury The Cynics (GANGSTA.)
- Girlhood Grotesque (Red Garden)
- Slay Me/Save Me (Witchblade anime)

Check them all out here. Feel free to join or whatever.

2012-02-10T16:23:12Z

My three current fanlistings have been revamped. They're all kind of variations on the one vague design and the Rispara one might send you blind, but darn it feels good to have these off the to-do list. Check them out, join them, whatever.

- Garters & Grace (Ai Tenshi Densetsu Wedding Peach)
- The First Course (Ristorante Paradiso)
- Oh Little Lamb (Nana from Elfen Lied)

I tried to make everything big and readable, since the previous layouts were relatively tiny & loaded with itty bitty fonts.

Happy 2012, everyone! I've decided to start the year off by putting up a few new layouts. Nothing too flash, but I've been terribly neglectful of my domain and sites as of late. Here's hoping the new year brings a little less laziness, eh?

- The Time-Stranger Network has a new layout featuring art by Hiwatari Saki. It's pretty plain, but omg I'm just happy to be rid of that damn Birdy layout.

- Linkage @ T-S.net also has a new layout, this time featuring Scoop Honey. I did try to go through and clean up a lot of links, but if I've missed yours or whatever, please let me know. Oh and I made a new link button. Derp.

- Queen Takes King has a very sparse Eva layout. I'll eventually go through and revamp each of my OMG THREE fanlistings. Eventually.

Actual content updates will come someday, I promise. Then perhaps some of the new sites I've been talking about for freakin' years. Perhaaaaaaaaps.

2011-07-12T13:25:30Z

Oh So Modern Jezebel has been updated to include six new images in the "special scans" section. These are scans of character materials I recently received thanks to monophobia (who runs the delightful Persephone.nu). Kitajima looks pretty awesome in her various outfits, so make sure you go and check these new pics out. Unfortunately they will likely be the last scans I add to OSMJ in a while, unless Uno Makoto manages to release another artbook before I'm thirty. I have a few articles I've been working on though, so OSMJ won't run out of general updates anytime soon.

My domain is in need of a general update so I'll try to get on top of that next. Then maybe a new site or something similar (if time ever permits, of course).

network update

2011-04-25T13:56:07Z

Oh So Modern Jezebel has received a much needed facelift. The last layout was hideous but I'm much happier with this one, it's slightly different to the way I've presented the site previously. I'm pretty much just satisfied that I managed to integrate Kitajima in her flashback dress into a layout (look at my icon, I freakin' love her flashback dress). In addition to the new layout I've...

- Revised the terminology in "Q and A".
- Added a piece on the Dragonaut pachislo game to "Further Recognition".
- Put up a new article in "Analytical" entitled Affairs of the Heart which covers my vague stance on who Kitajima ~loves~.

I know that doesn't seem like too much but trying to take Dragonaut seriously uses up a lot of energy. So yeah, totes heaps of time invested here u guyz, I'm not a neglectful site owner at allllll.

2011-03-14T13:18:31Z

The linkage section of T-Snet has been updated with a new layout (featuring the girls of Gall Force) and a slightly revised link list. If I've forgotten to link anyone, please let me know!

Black Cherry has a brand new layout featuring a sketch of Reina by Uno Makoto. As the site is relatively complete at this stage, the only new written content is listed under "Snippets" and "Personality" in the data section. Reina isn't a prominent enough character to warrant essays upon essays, so the "Snippets" section just has a bit of analytical rambling for now. As for the addition to "Personality", it's just a piece on Reina's objectivity (quite an interesting trait). I'm not sure if I'll have much else to add to this site in the future, so I do hope it reads as fairly comprehensive at this point.

(I only just noticed that I've used to same header font on both Black Cherry and OSMJ. I guess OSMJ will get a layout update next. DURR HURR ME. This is what happens when you go months without so much as glancing at your own websites...)

Black Cherry has rather unexpectedly been named Amassment's Animanga Site of the Month for January 2011. I was under the impression that nobody visited it, but I've been pleasantly surprised. Thank you to criminalqueen for nomination and newtype for picking the site. To read their lovely comments about Black Cherry, make sure you click here - I was floored! I'm not used to my sites winning things like this!

In honour of this award, I've done a quick little update to bring Black Cherry up to a slightly better standard. I've added a brief glossary of terms to the "Witchblade" section (which should make the site a tad more readable). I've also reuploaded the second ending theme, which had a dead link in the "Music" section. There's also been the usual typo-fix and general read over. If you can spot any further errors or would like to suggest other terms to define, feel free to buzz me. Unfortunately I'm too busy to give the site a thorough revamp, but I hope this will make the site a little better to visit.

Thanks for all your support :)

The Time-Stranger Network has a new layout, featuring Birdy from Tetsuwan Birdy: Decode. I've also updated the links page (added/deleted a bunch of domains). You can also see that I have not one but two upcoming sites, when/if I ever get around to working on my sites properly again.

Hey, remember when my domain was overflowing with sites dedicated to guys? Yeah, me either - but I swear it was, once. Now my emphasis is on creating dedications to thoughtfully composed female characters instead. When I was younger I wouldn't say I bought into fandom misogyny, but I seemed to invest myself more in the growth of male characters. Now that I'm older and somewhat more enlightened I'm like "fuck it, awesome ladies need shrines too" - hence my change in priorities. I mention this because someone brought this transition to my attention recently and I'm pretty cool with it. I like that I've been able to grow in so many ways since I started making websites as a kid. I still have some fansites for male characters in mind, but for now at least I'm enjoying my *~girly~* domain focus.

Anyway, enough of that. Before I finish up this entry, I want to just say thank you to everyone who voted for Oh So Modern Jezebel in the 2010 Fansite Pageant Awards. Not only did it win Best Fansite For Essays it also managed to score First Place: Favourite Fansite Overall. I was floored by these honours - thank you all so much for your support. :)

Oh So Modern Jezebel has a new (rather basic) layout. I've added some more of my own opinions to the "Manga" section as well as nine icons to the "Icons" section. Biggest addition would be a new article entitled "Yes/No/Maybe" in which I (rather sarcastically) analyse whether or not Kitajima traded her ass for secrets in episode six. Oh you know you wanted it. I just remembered that OSMJ turns two this month, my insanity clearly knows no bounds.

Black Cherry has had a couple of minor additions. In the "Profile" section I've added Reina's three sizes (and their source). I've also added some information and images in the "Appearance" section relating to Reina's original clothing design.

... and that's it for now!

network update - happy birthday, t-s.net!

2010-09-22T16:34:55Z

The Time-Stranger Network officially turns ten in October. While the collective itself is over twelve years old, I think the domain managing to last a whole bloody decade deserves some sort of celebration. Due to other commitments, I won't be free to put anything online next month, so I've decided to stick a celebratory layout online a month early - actual dates be damned.

The new layout (GO LOOK) features art from the cover of Tokyo ESP volume one. Oh and look, images for navigation - what a lazy bitch I am hoho~! You may notice an addition to the site menu and, well, IT'S ONLY A TEASER PAGE SO FAR, but once I'm through this semester it will become a proper dedication. I'm speaking, of course, about Skirt Like A Flag, my (eventual) site for Blood+'s Julia Silverstein. I WON'T REST UNTIL THE MAJORITY OF MY SITES ARE DEDICATED TO ANIMATED SCIENTISTS EVERYONE ELSE CONSIDERS RAGING BITCHES, DAMMIT.

Also updated? Contact has a new layout (Tegami Bachi) and Linkage has had some minor modifications (removed a bunch of dead links, added a couple of new links).

I don't want to sound like a total wanker, but I'd like to say thanks to everyone who has visited and supported Time-Stranger.net over the past decade. I've never been the best webmaster in the world (in terms of both ability and dedication) however I do appreciate the interest people seem to show in my online work. Will I still be here in another ten years? I suppose it depends on whether or not my Internet licence is revoked due to old age. Let's call that a maybe, shall we? Thanks for the memories and enjoy :)

(Oh and make sure you thank our lovely hostess Sabina by clicking on the "Our Host" link!)

Black Cherry, my shrine to Soho Reina from Witchblade, has received another facelift. I'm not sure what it is about this site, but I can't seem to make layouts for it idk. In addition to the new layout, I've...

- Added a photo of my Reina figure to the merchandise section (and written a bit more about it).
- Added two new songs (vocal tracks!) to the media section.
- Added all the link buttons donated by amassment members - thanks so much!
- (Finally!) added an affiliate link to yeerk's lovely shrine to Tamura Reiko from Parayste, Ripples. If you found yourself interested in Reina, I'm sure you'll be equally drawn to Reiko.

The usual minor edits are around too, like typos and little HTML glitches. Let me know if there's anything else that needs fixing or the like. I know that Reina, being a very minor character in a particularly under-appreciated series, isn't exactly typical shrine material. Regardless of this, I do hope you'll continue visiting and enjoying my shrine in the future.

Passionate, my dedication to Angel Salvia from Wedding Peach, has had its big yearly revamp! I'm a month too early for the site's eighth birthday (August 20th) but I still think this counts. Somewhat.

In addition to a new layout (featuring Scarlet as she appears on the second Wedding Peach DX LD), there's plenty of revised written content. Rewritten articles include: "personality", "voice", "past", "present", "future", "love", "relationships", "role" and "magic". I've also written sizable new parts to: "additional" (about the PC game), "Gone With The Wind" (lots of new lines, a new edit), "music" (CD covers added, new information added), "link out" (cleaned up links, added some new ones). There's also a new section entitled "resources" that, y'know, credits various resources and lists some history.

I'LL DRINK TO EIGHT YEARS OF THIS, YO.

(PS: Is it just me or are most magical girl sites dead in the water these days? If you own a magical girl character shrine and want to affiliate with Passionate, drop me a comment.)

Pretty decent update for Oh So Modern Jezebel. The sections on Kitajima's relationships have all been update with rewritten portions and/or new quotes. "Personality" has also had some segments rewritten for clarity. I've also done a pretty big HTML clean up and fixed quite a few minor errors and typos. The biggest addition this time around however, is a new article entitled "Beauty/Beast" which examines what exactly Nozaki represents and why. Enjoy the tl;dr.

2010-05-28T12:45:35Z

Brain Candy (my blog) has been added to The Time-Stranger Network.

I've also updated Black Cherry. There's a new article about the contrasts between Nishida and Reina, the two main female scientists in Witchblade. I've also added some lovely new banners donated by amassment members. Thanks so much, guys!

Not a huge update, I know, but it's finals time and I'm busy D:
