[...] *Ironically, though I wasn’t usagijen-raging on Kotoko back when watching Itazura, now with Sawako on the table I can see clearer now what the rage was about =/ (*shakes head at Kotoko* Nonetheless I still love Itazura na Kiss because I’m secretly a sap =P) I guess I’ll make up for it by supporting Sawako all the way in her quest to become her Naritai Jibun!!!

@Blissmo: oh I forgot to say one thing… when I was summarizing all the stuff I summarized, I did so with either raw or chinese subs, so that also takes a little bit more time hehe.

well if you wrote a post for 4 hours but didn’t feel that it took you that long, then that’s just great! it means you don’t feel that you’ve wasted much time :3

Since people have been talking about how long it takes to blog one episode, I actually timed myself.

And then one LONG summary is like 1hr, but I don’t describe the scenes since I cbs. I just write what happens lols. And then it takes like half and hour to get snapshots cos i do it the long way. Print Scrn, Copy, Paste, Save method with Windows Media. Tried using vlc for snapshots but it just doesn’t feel the same, you know?

Still haven’t timed the short summary, but i think it’s like 30-40mins? Or maybe that’s what it FEELS like. Who knows, I probably take 4 hrs to write a post >_>

Nagato, rather than doing summaries, do overviews. Just covering the key points, your thoughts and stuff.

And sometimes, it’s better to have a solid paragraph rather than 6 paragraphs that are all over the place

@Nagato: in time Nagato, you shall find your own path too :p

@Kabitzin: yes, that is especially what happened to my Saiunkoku and Kaze no Stigma blogging @__@ and yes for evolution! but… Raichu rofl.

@Mike: yes, I do know for a fact that editorials also take a lot of time, but I feel that the time I invest on it is far more worth it

@Crusader: oh noes~ was I giving off negative chi DX oh well, it’s just one of the harsh truths I had to embrace hehe. And yes, I hope to churn out more Itazura na Kiss posts too! still thinking of interesting stuff to write

@Ziyan: aw thank you!! =3
