ElvenShadow's Japan blog

[ElvenShadow]

Blog updated.

Candydad, yea dude it was cool running into you at Mikado. Good games. See you next time you visit Japan.

St1ckbug, yea bad timing. Hopefully next time

[ElvenShadow]

I finally got around to uploading a TON of pictures dating all the way back to June. Check out my pictures page if you are interested. Link is on my blog.

[Spud]

Keep up the good work on this blog dude

[ElvenShadow]

blog updated again

I took some pics, not sure when I will upload them but I will post when I do

[W.E.M.P.]

is this not being updated any longer >.>

[ElvenShadow]

I sorta gave up on the blog last fall. No one seemed to really care about it anymore and I guess I lost the desire to keep writing. The fact that GG hasn't been in SBO anymore also means very little interesting GG related discussion. I can only type about how I played casuals and then got shit faced at the bars all night so many times. Maybe I'll revive it someday if there is interesting enough stuff to write about and if people are actually interested. I guess a lot of stuff has happened in my life since I stopped to write an interesting update but it wont really have anything to do with fighting games. I don't think anyone really cares though. I'm not really important or anything lol.

That's not true at all.

I swear, MANY people here in Italy follow it, and only one (me) is a GG player. Your blog is awesome also because it's a report on a life of a gaijin gamer in the FG japanese comunity.

It's really THAT awesome. And also is full of beer (good) and stalker japanese girls (also good).

Please, keep it on!

Should get back into it!

Also, are you planning on going to the Kanto Saikyou Ketteisen GG event? It's going to be at the very end of April at Mikado

Thanks for the heads up.

I didnt even know about this event. I've been pretty busy with stuff lately and haven't been playin much GG at all. I'd like to go. I already have other plans on the 28th so I can't enter the events that day but I think I'll try to enter the 3on3 on the 29th. I just need to get a team. Looks like they are taking pre registration for it online.

I guess if I find the time I will try to update the blog again if people actually want me to.

You could write about my sheer awesomeness!

How is the GG scene in Japan doing anyway? I mean the matches I see are topnotch almost every time, but what's going on outside that small set of matchvids I get to see?

Elvenshadow

People do want to read your blog, I assure you =) Good luck with finding a team for 29th!

[W.E.M.P.]

I would like it to be continued if and when there are things to report. Obviously finding things on guilty gear is like finding water in the desert, but it is things like these that encourage a young player like myself whom just can not get into the groove of blazblue and just feels the NEED to play this wonderful game.

Anything we can do to keep this game/scene alive. I hope things become atleast slightly more lively once the port happens.

[doragonkoroshi]

I enjoy reading your blog from time to time, and keep checking this thread to see if you will update it again. I really like how you seem to remember all your matches in their entirety. I can really visualize what is going on just by reading,so that's cool. Not asking you to do it if you're not feeling it, but just want you to know that i will read it if you ever do update it.

[DaiAndOh]

Yeah it was cool to here stuff about scene, or general Japan stuff.

Though I'd say you have a pretty important reason to start blogging again. Also heard you met up with Chaz which is cool. I heard he's been playing too much BB not enough GG though -_-.

Hope you're doing alright.

[doragonkoroshi]

Hey dude. Are you going to write a blog about your loke test experience? Is there more to be said about the experience than just the changes in the game itself? Also, seems like you had a pretty interesting situation with running into your students in Tokyo. I'm not telling you what to do, but all I'm saying is I'll read it if you write it.

I'm from Italy too (hi fenrir), and i've loved your blog so much...please resurrect it with +R ^_^

[jinbe]

sorry for the double post but, elvenshadow, not that u seems to have a renewal interest in GGXXAC+R, what about to update your blog again ? i (and a lot of other people) would be very happy of this...

[sonnywortzik]

I agree with jinbe about updating your blog elvenshadow. I wanna know how the japanese players and you are feeling about AC+R. If you have the time that is.

[ElvenShadow]

I don't know if I will update the blog, but I am happy to post information about ACR and answer any questions in the ACR thread.

[thegame4ever]

Sad to see you stopped writing since I immensely enjoyed your posts and was an awesome insight into Japan/Guilty, as well as your life, but guess you've moved to something else. Faint hope you'd keep writing, but if not good luck and thanks for the good times!

[ElvenShadow]

I haven't updated my blog but I thought I'd just mention that I made a twitter account finally. I will be posting GG related stuff about tournaments and whatnot so I figured those of you who read the blog might want to follow me.

So... I'm sorta considering updating my blog again... maybe just as like a "checking in" brief summary of the last 3 years.  Does anyone even care anymore?  Would I be wasting my time? or should I do it?
