Girls I like from Anime I did not liked.

Ikaros from Sora no Otoshimono is my waifu, but I dropped the anime itself because Sohara and Mikako are annoying.



Another waifu is Kokona from Yama no Susume


Raphtalia from Shield Hero is also very good girl for the most part, almost a waifu material. Naofumi himself does annoy me as his values and principles are stark contrast to mine.


Kuroyukihime from Accel World and Chintanda Eru from Hyouka are close enough to what I like, but they are too willful to be my waifus. However when I watched these two shows and always thought 'if only she could be more obedient'.




Minoru's persocoms from Chobits are also very much waifu material. Chi herself alright I guess, if I remember correctly it mostly male MC who kind of ruined her by trying to make her more 'human'

Some more reflection on Infinite Ryvius

That is a show about society and actions people take in emergency situations.

It is heavy to watch but it is very insightful on how fucked up people can get sometimes.

It is realistic too as most people on board wanted this hell to end. The wanted things to go back to normal so that they can live their carefree peaceful lives just as before.



Neeya is best girl of course, she helps out Kouji at times and protects him. 

She is somewhat supernatural.

However it is shows like this that show how important it is to have someone on whom you can rely even in the shittiest of events.

Someone who can shelter you from various shit that might happen here and there sometimes.



I can relate to what is going on in the show because I went through many stressful, crisis like situations in life.

I also have seen more than fair share of nasty people who really were a lot of trouble.

Because of that I developed heavily self-protective approach to life and want to make sure someone is reliable and harmless. However it is somewhat complex as to what I can see as reliable.

About Girls of Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!

On the other hand, it is only natural that it would be Kumin, who would fill the void of Rikka's absence and keep searching for Eternal Horizon. I always knew that despite not looking like it, she is the most capable of them all. Kumin is Jack of all trades and a a Swiss Army Knife of all things you might need from woman. She can be anything. However CC is a Swiss Army Knife with more functions than Kumin.

However, in Chunibyo Kumin is best at maintaining a balance between normal-ness and being interesting, whcih makes her my kind of likable. She does not try to make mess like Dekomori and wreck everything, neither is she tries to be 'normal' like Nibutani. She is just doing her cute thing peacefully and discreetly.

Rikka too has some good qualities compare to Kumin. Rikka is more stylish with her black and purple outfits, frilly skirts and stockings. Her outfits are both magical and surreal and therefore sexy. I always like it when girls dress like they are not from this world, but stylish, gentle and girly at the same time. Some others can go overboard with some shock monster outfit which will not look good. However Rikka's style does work well. 

Though Kumin's all white outfits are cute in their own way. They make her look like a bride material, white is a color you can write and paint on very easily. So you can paint and adjust Kumin to your liking.

Also Rikka is more pigeon toed compare to Kumin. Also I like how small she is, her tiny hands are compare to those of Dark Flame Master, just so adorable, also that totally reminds me of Shirley. Also she has cute eyepatch, eyepatch makes her more adorable, like she is slightly vounded. Finally she can cutely hold her head and say that it hurts as she cry, but she still comes back to to guy who did this to her like a Stockholm Syndrome girl.



Yuuta sisters do not get much screen time, but they the older one is likable enough I think.


The other girls are not good.


Dekomori is just too much of a chaos to be viable waifu material. I cannot trust her to not make mess of things. I much prefer logical opposition to society compare to action for action sake.


Fake Forest on the other hand goes too far in the other direction of 'being normal'. Loyalty to 'rules of society' will conflict with loyalty towards me and my rules. Girls must obey my rules alone.


Priestess of the Overseers is worse than even Fake Forest, not even dog collar on her neck can redeem her.


A little final note:

Girls have to be surreal, like they are from another world or something. I mostly hate life and cannot get along with some kind of 'life affirming' type of girl.

Analysis of Different Political Views from Code Geass

Charles is more of a Social-Darwinist than a fascist, in a meaning that he is worse than a fascist. 

Fascists do believe in social unity and togetherness at least within their polity even if they do not extend the same consideration to outsiders. Fascists do look at the world as us vs them and have not any mercy to outsiders, but still minded of wellbeing of their own kind. For example Nazis believed that continued existence of Jews and Poles are an impediment to the wellbeing of German race and therefore these two ethnic groups has to be exterminated and their property and land given to Germans. While that is inhuman towards Poles and Jews, it is actually conscious of German wellbeing and needs. It just aims to solve them as expense of others. Fascism is a form of stratocracy or a caste system.

In contrast Social-Darwinists do not believe in any kind of 'us' like the fascists do. They believe in so called 'law of the Jungle': might makes right,  strong eat the weak and everyone is an enemy. There are people who are called sociopaths who act this way on individual level, however Social-Darwinists go one step further and believe that the whole society should be organized on the principals of sociopathy. In practice Social-Darwinism will lead to a lawless rule of a strongman type of people, who maintain their rule through strength and cunning and can make decisions entirely on personal whims.


Next is Schneizel. Your take on him is better than on the others. However while he is broadly conservative, but his views are not exactly the same as that of many other conservatives.

Generally modern conservatives are a broad enough group of people of vastly different social and political views. Some are as radical as Charles here and may be even worse. Others are more of a well off people of broadly liberal views who just do not want to be taxed, but otherwise have nothing in common with any of the above. As well as those who simply do not want any changes out of laziness and cautiousness as 'things might get worse so lets do nothing' or 'if its aint broken, do not fix it.'

Schneizel however has a unique, but rather radical believe that 'people want to be controlled' which is somewhat a polar opposite of freedom. Thus he aimed at creating a system that controls people by force of arms. If he truly believes that 'people want to be controlled' then he is typical religious type and will follow some oppressive religion like Christianity, Islam, Judaism or even some more radical cult that makes plenty of ridiculous rules for their followers to follow. Except he will make the rest of the world follow it as well on threat of death if their do not comply.

Of course it could also be that he simply says it out of convenience, as he is known to always say what is best to advance his own interests so he might not believe in any of that and just use it as a convenient ideology for him to take and maintain power. Lelouch called him hollow, as if Lelouch does not believe that Schneizel believes in anything at all. In contrast Schneizel said that Lelouch did not master the art of wearing a mask, as if Lelouch does not lie well enough to keep his intentions hidden well enough. Only someone a lot more dishonest than Lelouch could say something like that.


I will separately comment on Suzaku as he is a simply no-war type of person who will do anything to stop any wars. His mentality is simple: people die in wars so wars are bad and should be stopped no matter the cost. That of course completely overlooks all misery caused by evil oppressive rule as well as executions they may perpetrate. People die even if there is no any wars. However all 'no-war' zealots are too blind and narrow minded to realize something like that. Also most of them do not mind pain and suffering at all so it is near impossible to reason with them.


Then Nunnally and Euphy. Once again calling them liberals (in the US meaning of the word) is as misleading as calling Schneizel conservative. The US liberals is as broad of a group with vastly different views are conservatives are. In Europe Liberal is used broadly for the same thing as Libertarian in the US and they are not that.

Nunnally's views are not well covered in great details anywhere. 

However, Euphy could be called Progressive, a kind of theoretical social-justice university-classroom grown ideology that aims to 'do the good thing'. What that 'good thing' is does depend on various trends and what not. Sometimes it is useful, sometimes it is not.

However I can agree that they lack understanding of broader situation and their ideas do nothing to address fundamental issues with the system.

At best they want to help as many people as they can and at worst simply pamper their own self image of trying to be 'a good person'.


Finally Lelouch. He surely has radical revolutionary views, however his views are different from these of the traditional leftists. They are different from even neo-leftists such as Alex Tsipras and Pablo Iglesias.

In fact despite he is a main character of Code Geass, there is surprisingly little information about his views. Overall he is not driven by any ideology at all. Nor does he actually even has a cohesive plan of what he will do to fix any of the issues.

He is driven in part by his ego and in part by his desire for revenge against the system that wronged him.

While he does not have clear idea what should replace this system, he has clear conviction that system as it is must be replaced with something better.

Lelouch has seen first hand many instances of current system failing not just himself but also many other people. All this experience gave him clear conviction that system must be changed.

However as Lenin once said: 'Revolutions happen when people just cannot keep on living just as before'.

Because of that Revolutions are often messy and chaotic. Since after overthrowing the goverment, they still have to figure out how to go on forward from there on.

However while way forward is not obvious, what is obvious is way back is no longer possible.

Lelouch and the rest of Black Knights members cannot live on just as before. 

So all the conditions for the Revolution has been cleared.

They have no choice be to revolutionise the world.

Anthy, the Which, the Rose Bride and the Savior

 

Anthy is one of the most interesting characters in Utena. She is on par with Akio and surely more interesting that titular protagonist.

In fact, if I was as young and naive as Dios once was, I would have called her a waifu material may be not on par with CC, but close enough. However, I am wiser than that and know better.

In fact, she is the real villain of this story. Surely no one would suspect a girl with such an innocent face to be the villain, however that is precisely why Anthy maintains that 'innocent' persona. To avoid casting any suspicion on herself. She is not some amateur plotter like Nanami who cause some mess and get caught.

In fact, Nanami's character is useful as it helps the viewers to bridge the gap between naive idealism of Utena with sophisticated 5-dimensional scheming of Akio and Anthy.

In fact, that poisonous snake Nanami was completely terrified of Anthy and Akio during her stay with them in the End of The World Ark. As she finally understood that this duo is on a completely different level compared to her.

The Which

Anthy and Akio are the only two people who fully understand what is going on. They are also the only people who not only know everything there is to know about manipulating people's feelings, but actually actively use it in their everyday life for their selfish ends.

Many people criticize Akio for being a bad guy as Utena do accuse him a lot in the final episodes and he admits to many lies as he explains Utena how world works. 

Most viewers do not understand and most likely does not even try to understand anything from their conversation, which is a real shame as it is one of the best parts of the story. 

Alas, things such as allegory and symbolism is hard to get for an unprepared mind which is a shame as people who understand such things make for a good conversation partner. Perhaps the only kind of people I can reasonably enjoy a conversation with.

As far as I know no one could even notice that Anthy is even more of a villain than Akio is. If you are not getting it, then keep watching attentively until you get it.

I guess you really need to have a real first-rate intelligence to get that aspect of the story. In fact, this is one of the things that can be used to measure people's intelligence.

The Rose Bride

While Anthy acting as Rose Bride is partly for Akio's sake, that is not as if he simply forced her to play the part.

Anthy does it for Akio, but of her own free will. And she quite enjoys what she is doing. I would even say she actually believes that whoever wins the duel deserves to order her around. As winning such a duel does proves strength and women respect strength.

Her true loyalties however lay with Akio as she showed during the better between Akio and Utena, by backstabbing Utena.

Utena does try to make Anthy more sociable and Anthy often 'agrees'. However, that is not because she really thinks so, but merely because, as a Rose Bride, she obeys anything whoever she is engaged to says. When Touga won a duel against Utena and Anthy became his bride she easily refuted whatever Utena told her and agreed with Touga that she is better off alone in her cage. In fact, it was much easier for her to agree with Touga than with Utena. However, Utena kept winning duels and overtime her opinions overrode those of others.

The Savior

Anthy did saved Dios from something in the past. Akio too said that he could believe in that and in her back then. The details are scarce so a lot of this is speculation.

Possibly he managed to impress her with something in particular and in turn she was willing to go for some significant sacrifices for him.

However most likely when both of them were younger and naiver they could believe in each other and love each other honestly.

However, as they aged and became more experienced and cynical, their love evaporated.

Akio wanted to find someone like Anthy used to be. That is why he became chairman of the Ohtori Academy and used this position to institute these duels in hope of finding someone as self-sacrifacial as Anthy used to be.

Anthy went alone with his plans, out of lingering love for him and possibly did not hope to get anything out of it. Though she very much enjoyed playing Rose Bride as she enjoys discreetly prank Nanami with things like Cowstian Cowbell and that egg.

Ultimately Anthy ended up becoming the biggest beneficiary of Akio schemes as Utena chose her and she made peace with the fact that her new 'prince' is female.

I personally very much sympathize with Akio. I can see many parallels between him and me. So I hoped that he will manage to find his eternal love. 

I do hope I will be able to find this kind of eternal love for myself.

The kind TrueHellDei possibly was.

Revolutionary Girl Utena is a Deconstruction of Love and Relationships rather than LGBTI+ Affirming Story

Not LGBTI+

A lot of people seem to associate Revolutionary Girl Utena with LGBTI+. 

While there are some elements in this show that can be considered LGBTI+ related, such as Utena and Anthy being a 'lesbian' couple. However, if one pays attention to the story then it is rather clear that this is merely a surface of their relationship.

Both Utena and Anthy were eventually shown to have slept with Akio. Anthy was doing this all along from even before the story begun as she prefers him to everyone else. In Akio Ohtori Ark (the end of the story) she makes it rather clear that she does not accepts a female 'prince' no matter how much Utena reminds her of what Dios used to be when he was younger.

Yet despite these glaring contradictions, people still seem to think it is somehow LGBTI+ affirming story.

Deconstruction of Love and Relationships

Since time immemorable there were relationship with significant age differences. However, in these kinds of relationships it was almost always a man who was older and not the other way around.

Despite men with young 'trophy' wives are common there were never a study or even a fictional story that would reasonably deconstruct such a relationship, show and explain to viewers why men prefer younger women. 

Revolutionary Girl Utena does just that and explains. exactly that. It does that through the story of one of its main characters, Akio Ohtori, as well as some other duelists who challenged Utena as certain points of the story. In fact, it is stories of all these other duelists that are much better and more insightful that that of the Utena herself, but I will not go into details here as each of them deserves an article on its own.

How to watch Utena for Akio's Story

To understand my point, you have to watch (or re-watch) Revolutionary Girl Utena from a different point of view. With a focus on Akio as if he is a main character. Akio's story is not written in a typical American fashion where main protagonist is first introduced and then their story is told.

While main part of Akio story is at the very end of the story (last 6 episodes), the whole story is important to understand his character. 

Analysis of Akio's Character


Akio is fundamentally a person who is nostalgic about his past self as well as about Anthy how she was back then. The times when she sacrificed herself to save him, this allowed him to be this surreal and magical Prince Dios. He is nostalgic of the times when he could still believe in Anthy as well as this something 'eternal'. It is a trait he shares with a number of other duelists such as Miki or Saionji.

However, Akio is older and more experienced that the duelists. He does know that this eternal he promised to the duelists is fundamentally an illusion, a lie he created. Yet simultaneously he yearns to see it as much as they do.

Akio used to love Anthy because he believed that she sacrificed herself to save him. However, overtime he grew to know her better and by the beginning of the story knows that she is not as innocent an pure as he once believed she was.

As Utena battled other duelists Akio started to believe that may be Utena is the kind of pure and unspoiled girl he always wanted, so he decided to seduce her and turn her into new Anthy. New Rose Bride but this time for him exclusively.

However, what Akio liked about Utena was not her playing a prince for Anthy, but rather her clueless naivety. That is why he told her to give up a sword and become a girl again. Akio thought that a naive simpleton of a girl is much better than multifaced cunning schemer that Anthy is. Anthy too deserves a separate article which I do plan to write soon.

That did not end well as Utena choose her pride and duty over her love for Dios.

Overlord is Anti-Evangelion

 

I personally very much dislike Neon Genesis Evangelion. I think it not only gets everything wrong, but also creates misleading and confusing picture of relationship between men and women.

The fact that despite all that Eva is so popular and so many people swear by it does perplexes me. I truly puzzles me how could they possibly feel the exact opposite of what I feel. Just like Gregory House MD likes to know things, I too want to know the answer to this puzzle of human psychology.

Here I came up with couple of theories on that matter.


Eva was created by late boomers and somehow represents feelings and psychology of their generations. This is not my generation, so I cannot even fathom what made them feel this way. Thus, I cannot know if Shinji, Asuka and Rei represent their own feelings, or they represent what they wished for their children to become. Are they the generation that somehow suffers from Inferiority Complex or wish their children to suffer from it. However, Eva is possibly the anime that defines their generation. Otherwise, this ugly creation would not be able to stay afloat for as long as it did and people would not be saying things like it is deep and profound as if its somehow gets them.


That made me think what anime could possibly be the anime that defines the generation for our Millennial Generation. I once said it is Code Geass, however Code Geass has many things going for it and despite that attracts hate rather than unreasonable admiration.

To be that the anime has to have obvious flaws and despite all that be massively popular. Such a popularity could only be explained with appeal to some underlying psychological factors. I searched for anime that have obvious objective flaws, yet despite them appeals to me personally and I found it: its the Overlord.

It must be written by a Millennial because only a Millennial would hide his date of birth and his face under a skeleton mask.

Despite obvious plot holes, dubious plots, lack of any intrigue as it is obvious that Ainz will win every battle and rather flawed cast full of stuff I do not like, like crossdressing and rude women, I still like this show.

I like it only for one rather simple reason. I like how they all treat Ainz. They worship him, they obsess about him, and they work tirelessly and will even sacrifice their own lives to please him and conquer the world for him.

I am not sure if that is narcissism or whatever, but I love it.


I want people to worship me, please me and conquer world for me. I do not care if some naysayers will call it narcissism or what not, I want it.


Aniz and Gilgamesh are Anti-Shinji

Further comparing Eva and Overlord I can also say that Ainz is an of Anti-Shinji. Shinji believed he is worthless and deserved to suffer. Ainz fully embraces role of a supreme being. Actually, Ainz occasionally wavers in his determination. So, a true anti-Shinji would be Gilgamesh from Fate/Zero. He surely believes he is supreme being above everyone else.

Thus, both Ainz and Gilgamesh are the role models to whom Millenials like me could relate and whom we would like to emulate.


Generally, I think it is only typical for each new generation to defy everything the previous one was and do things the opposite way just to assert their individuality if for no other reason. Thus, it is only fitting and natural that generations of Shinji-s would be replaced with generation of Ainz-es and Gilgamesh-es.


Both Asuka and Rei are fundamentally tsunderes.

That one idea came to me recently.

Back in the days I too contrasted Rei with Asuka believing them to be very different from one another. That would make a lot of sense to assume considering many other anime cast one girl of each archetype and they wear different cloth and what not.

That happen partly because I watched Eva long ago and remember them poorly.

However after watching some youtube videos of Rei I stared thinkin that she is not that different from Asuka. They both are basically tsunderes. It is just one of them is hot tsundere and the other one is cold tsundere.

Thus Eva gives no waifu option for anyone who does not like tsunderes. Asuka and Rei are just false dichotomy.

Overlord aslo has a false dichtonomy between Albedo and Shalltear who both are equally obsessed with Ainz, despite being rather different from each other otherwise.

By the way what we should call this type of girl: obsess-dere?

On Unintended Consequences

That is how Geass works. Its side effects.

One sunny afternoon it just gets out of control and cannot be deactivated by normal means anymore. When that would happen is completely unpredictable. So just a minute ago you chat idly and feel chill about it all and the next moment it just fires off and you get the results you did not wanted to see.

In fact Code Geass does well to illustrate that your actions often have the unintended consequences you cannot predict even if you are super genius like Lelouch.

It is same how Shirley's dad was killed. He was just another unnamed casualty of war who probably piloted one of the knightmares that were caught in the avalanche. Lelouch sure did not intended for him to die and he surely did not want to make Shirley sad, but it did happen. That is just how world works.

Yet despite that one still want to blame someone for the misfortunes that befell on them. Mao exploited that and convinced Shirley to shoot Lelouch.

That of course is not a universal rule and some other people in turn do bad things intentionally and then try to blame it on something else.

However, Lelouch more often than not suffers from unintended consequences of his actions.

We need more Epicness

 I was thinking recently that things stop being epic for quite a while now.

Things became much more ordinary, basic and primitive even. I hate this 'doing more with less' reductionism and reusing old shit kind of minimalist shit that was imposed on us by austerity. It is like society deevolving back into stone age.

Code Geass has lofty ideas and epicness to it. It is possibly the epic-iest anime out there. It is about strive to perfection.

We need to strive towards more, epic-ier and better.

Towards a epic over the top shinining beacon on a hill type of society that we can be proud of.

A society where we lord over all things like gods and rightful Masters of the Univerce. 

Not some humble paupers who reduce their 'carbon footprint', fuck this green fascism.

More Demon Girls

 I made some more. Black is still the best color and I love it a lot.

However, there were a several good dresses that I wanted her to wear.

There were also a few good hairstyles, even put some against contrast background.

And three different styles of wings I liked.

Also,




















I added her a tail.



Some extra ideas:

Somehow few people sue the same dresses as I do.


@EyeAmTheI uses mostly black just as I do, but he prefers red to yellow. However, that dress kind of makes her look fat.


@ryo-san also has her in mostly black


@ateks and @xthewarwithinx likes twintails like me


@xthewarwithinx also likes the same kind of lingerie but in different colour


@Catalano likes the same kind of wings I also like but with red inner side


@StarfireDragon likes that scarf-ish looking dress that I have in extended selection but in different color compared to me


@Astachanna posted most of them, but most of his have this tie and coat attire, that makes her look too manly to my taste. His best is aquamarine-head on forest background.



No one seem to like that dress with open skirt that is my favorite or the curvy horns

No one likes this same combination of black, white and yellow as I do. I like it because it is like little warm light among the almost complete and utter darkness. It makes it epic, eerie and mysterious.

Finally, no one has these same tareme eyes that I like so. Thesse eyes are good, they make girl look gentle. They are better than others.


I wonder if there are similar games, but with different selection of times and such.

My Demon Girl

 Lo and behold a true beauty.

As far as the app will let me take it though.


There is actually lots of elements in this picture but most of them are obscured, like tears in the eyes.

Eye shape was the hardest to pick as most of them were of tsurime type. However, I eventually found that one type that was to my liking. And I like her eyes yellow.

I like her mostly in black. However, I also like her yellow eyes and inner sides of her wings.

This particular outfit looks most light and girly out of what was available. It makes her look both stylish and gentle. Open skirt is voluminous enough to make her girly, much better than some other skirts out there. A butterfly ornament tightly hugging her neck definitely very important.

Of course, there should be stockings. Sad that they do not have garter belt to them but alas. I though of making zigzag pattern yellow as well, but it looks better white.

I like curvy horns; they are the cutest of them.

Fluffy twin tail hair and a long sides front looks good together.

Nice curvy sword blade down.

Warm yellow flame in the other hand.

Large and comfy wings that are of warm yellow color on the inside. But of the resilient black on the outside.

A demon head ornament for the forehead is a nice little touch.

Finally, this is the best BG, mysterious, sophisticated and refined enough for my taste.

Epicness of Umineko no Naku Koro ni OST

A made a separate post about sad songs from Umineko no Naku Koro ni. However, Umineko more than just sad songs. In fact, it has one of the most epic OSTs out there. There is just nothing like it.

Here some of the most epic songs from Umineko no Naku Koro ni


World End Dominator and Executioner are like two twins of epic music. World End Dominator is all round cool, epic and sophisticated. Executioner 




Executioner -
 Also known as Berncastel Theme is a clearly an evil twin of the two. However, it is very sophisticated, not just evil. Listening to Executioner makes you want to commit massacres and laugh. (You can't spell slaughter without laughter)


Kuro no Liliana is more calm but no less epic. I guess it can play when lead my slave girls on a leash as they crawl behind me on all fours.


Golden slaughterer - This final piece is somewhat raw, but it is also epic. It has a slow start to build anticipation, before it unleashes the full might of its sound.



Fake Red Shoes - This is somewhat different take on epicness. It has fast-paced dynamics as well as intriguing twist together with signature Umineko sophistication.



Also, this song, unfortunately the name is in Japanese. The pipe organ and clavichord phantasmagoria. 



However, this is just a tip of the iceberg. Umineko has so many good songs, it will take forever to just list them all, much less to write something about them. So, explore them on your own.

Loreena McKennit

Loreena McKennitt is one of the few artists of whom I like most songs.

Some examples.









Good Classical Music, that I Like.

Classical music is often associated with past and tradition. Many listen to it for this attribute, to show their admiration for the past. Others consider classical music to be boring and listen to no less boring pop, that near forgoes music for physical attraction of singers instead. Jewish song Leena from Palestina satirizes that perfectly.

While a lot of classical music is indeed boring, far not all of it is. There are some truly epic songs that can beat the score of Star Wars or Lord of the Rings.


One of my favorites is Dance Macabre by Camille Saint-Saens. Dance of Death is cunning and eerie. It begins slow as if death stalks someone and then suddenly erupts in a fast-paced action. Parts of it sounds like it's played on bones. 



In the Hall of the Mountain King by Edward Grieg takes epicenes on the new level. It's both accessible and easy to listen but no less epic than Lord of the Rings soundtrack. It does starts slow but then develops very fast.



Edward Grieg even made a song for trolls, fantasy rather than internet kind, however it can be applied to internet ones as well. Its fast, melodic and very catchy even. It's called March of the Trolls



Edward Grieg also has some more calm songs that nonetheless has depth to them, for example Lyric Piece No 47 - Melodie. It sounds mysterious and eerie despite such unimaginative name. It's very thoughts provoking.



Now the big names. J.S.Bach has many songs, and many are plain but not the window shattering Toccata and Fugue. This song beats whatever Davy Jones was playing in second Pirates of the Caribbean by a mile.



Then there is also peaceful and airy dreamy and mysterious Concerto de Aranjuez. This rather slow song can make you will good and dreamy and think deep thoughts.


Charles Gounod's Ave Maria - this is a very warm and calm song, that can make you feel loved and cared for. It's also mysterious and thoughts provoking. Here are two versions, a piano one above and violin one below.


Thus Spoke Zarathustra - This song references Nietzsche's famous book and is not less mysterious and deep. It's perfect for a grand opening of an occult ceremony to either redeem or plunge the world into chaos.


Los Toreadores - fast and brisque song, that evoke memories of Spanish flamenco and corrida, that is referenced by this song. 


Hungarian Rhapsody - this song takes eeriness and mystery to a new level. It has sounds that you hardly hear in any other songs, either classical or otherwise. Not even futuristic techno has them. Here is plano version, but full orchestra one is better.


Tomaso Albinoni - Adagio. This song encourages you to think eternal questions, such as philosophy and metaphysics. It's both airy like Concerto de Aranjuez and mysterious. 



Zamfir's Ave Maria - This is a different take on Ave Maria. This song uses a rather rare pan flute that gives it a very unique and mysterious sound. There is just nothing like it.

There are more good classical pieces, but I will end this article on just these. Search deeper and you find many good songs.

Perfectionist Girl

TrueHellDei mentioned many times that she is quite the perfectionist. That she has very high standards to herself and puts a lot of effort into meeting them.

Even if some of these are painful for her, she still does that regularly.

May be that kind of perfectionism also made her put a lot of effort into writing fancy and sophisticated messages for me.


I am quite a perfectionist myself and could appreciate her efforts to please me.


May be because we are both perfectionists, that we managed to like each other so much.
