Well, I just finished 「地獄少女 二籠」 a little while ago. I had episodes 19 to 26 in my backlog so I figured I’d finish it off today. I can’t just keep letting my backlog grow, after all.

Anyway, the main arc got pretty wacked and I have to say that it was extremely depressing at times. There were many places that made me feel bad and wished that the events hadn’t turned out that way which obviously translates into awesomeness for me. After all, I love shows that are so sad you start wanting to say “Tell me it isn’t so”.

But, would I recommend this show to anybody? It’s hard to say, really. If you can stand the inordinate amount of filler episodes that it has then I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try. It’s just that some background information is revealed during the occasional weekly revenge episodes that you will end up missing some information if you end up just watching the episodes that are driving the main plot.

I was hit by a kernel panic upon booting the day after I got wireless working on my T61. At the time, I resolved it by not having net.eth0 or net.wlan0 start up upon boot. The dhcpcd client always wasted time trying to get an IP when I wasn’t even connected so I was rather pleased to see that fixing this one problem magically resolved a bigger one.

Unfortunately, it seems that it’s back and I am currently typing this up in my Vista environment. I’m browsing the Gentoo forums right now looking for solutions, we’ll see how that goes.
