Election Moves Forward!!!
Posted Image

The elections are under way in the Region, things are moving, people are talking, and Hunt's Army is banging on my door... excuse me for just a moment... Now then, let us discuss the elections!!!!

To start things off we will begin discussion of the Presidential candidates where most of the attention is being directed and held this time around, as is expected.

First up is Hunt and LW as they run on a split ticket of the Otaku Party and the Republican Party. Hunt and LW have been able to secure the nomination from the Otaku Party and with it it's prestige and some possible votes. This gives the ticket a big boost over other tickets because of both parties' power and other influences, while also trying to split Republican support. Already despite having much of a platform they have gathered many notable endorsements including Lewis and Daniel and Northern Timpetotia while also receiving Kastros' axe. This ticket seems to be the strongest one out of them all as not only does it have two well liked and known candidates but also many other factors. LW work as host on Liberty Radio may also play a big part in this election, as he is able to help control the media and get his message out there in a unique way.

Next is M-C and Kastros, this ticket is right now under the radar and underdeveloped. However it does have weight to it as Kastros is well liked and well known in the region and has also served as Senator for along while, serving during the Otaku Majority Period when he served as Speaker and Majority Whip. M-C also served during the same period in the Senate. While the ticket can pose serious threat to Hunt-LW ticket, it is unexpected that it will greatly effect it, at least as it stands now.

Now to Brick and Wet Lands, this ticket is somewhere in between right now. They failed to gather the Otaku Party nomination yet say that is because of a lack of effort, which has some weight to it. Then we see that they have a very active and well known campaign, more than any other ticket they have gathered lots of attention. Some say any attention is good attention. However they have also received a lot of flak for their recent term, well Brick's recent term. However they seem to have a developed platform and plan for the next term. At the same time though they have seemed to not have any notable endorsements, though they could be working behind the scenes.

Last but not least we have Regionia from the Republican Party, he also seems to have a platform that is continuing to be developed. He has had some nods of the head and some likes, but hasn't gotten any direct endorsements yet. He has had some conflict with his own party which could deep a possible split this election and cost him many possible Republican votes, and others as well. However he seems to be campaigning hard. He still lacks a Vice President on his ticket, which if he is unable to gather one will cause him to drop out and he will be unable to run. That would cost him the election. He has also decided to run for the Senate, which means that he hopes to gain some sort of seat this election no matter what it is.

As for President Election, The Messenger's Current Prediction is
Hunt-LW 53%, Brick-WL 23%, Regionia-Someone 17%, M-C-Kastros 7%


As for Delegate Britarvia is running on a platform of Cacti and assimilation. Britarvia has the most active campaign for Delegate and seems to be winning by leaps and bounds right now. Britarvia a member of the Republican Party has experience and hopefully a plan to improve our foreign relations.

M-C is also running for delegate but has failed to post much at this time, but it is on the way so I hear. He is from the Otaku Party so he has that running for him, but doesn't have any endorsements of yet. He has also split himself three ways running for the Presidency, Delegacy, and Senate all at the same time. If he is able to provide why he should win and what he would do then he would have a great chance at winning the election.

As for the Delegate Election, The Messenger's Current Prediction is
Britarvia - 78%, M-C - 10%, Bob - 20%

Economy Grows with New and Old Businesses!!!
Posted Image

That's right folks the Economy is growing with new and old businesses or at least it is trying to grow. Old business Liberty Radio has once again started up after a long period of hiatus with their host Libertarian Washington having taken a long break from NS. Liberty Radio used to be the number 1 radio station in TAR and was upon the top media companies in it's time. Now it once again returns to take back its former glory and revitalize the economy. Not only that but North Republic Industries, under CEO Lewis and Daniel, has become part owners in Liberty Radio. North Republic Industries bought and invested $10,000 into the company to make sure that it got started again and started strong. CEO Lewis and Daniel was quoted with saying "We need to make sure that there are plenty of active and strong companies and businesses within TAR. I hope that North Republic Industries continues to invest into the economy and in companies to make that possible. I will be seeking out more opportunists in the future." Liberty Radio which just had it's 28th episode is expected to once again become a hot item, and will soon reach the media milestone of 30 Episodes/Issues. If Liberty Radio can do this it will be the third company to do this after the Allied Republican and The Messenger.

That isn't all! Newcomer DaFreakyAmish, a friend of Lewis and Daniel, has come to the region and has put forward a plan for a new business. Lewis and Daniel has been directly involved with it and has helped to finance and invest in it. DaFreaky Sports Confederation (DFSC) which is what the business will be called, is going to be dealing with several things. They have two main ideas and plans so far. First is a betting ring, where people can bet on real life sports and their outcomes. Next is having people start their own sports teams, like a fantasy league of sorts, and have those teams compete against each other. The business is new and has its own spin on things. DaFreakyAmish has been named CEO and Lewis and Daniel has been named CFO and COO.

However there is slowness plaguing the market place as both Liberty Radio and DaFreaky Sports Confederation's applications were never accepted, in fact Libertarian Washington had to go out of his way and contact the President for anything to be done with his application. This comes after DaFreakyAmish's application for citizenship wasn't approved for days and was over looked as his application for a business now is. One wonders why people can't even do the most basic foundations of their jobs, yet the President and others are having to pick up their slack. This is worrisome, as even if the market tries to grow the inactivity of the government is keeping it down and discouraging it. Perhaps this election will mean change.

Berserk

Berserk --- I had heard about this anime before, many a time by my friend and Northern Timpetotia, and now after I have watched it I see another friend mentioning it too. So since I didn't talk to you guys about it before let's do it now!

The Story is about Guts who is a young mercenary who is quite good at what he does, and that seems to be the only thing that he really knows how to do. When coming back from a job one day he is attacked and has to fend himself, however this is where he meets the Band of the Hawk and most importantly Griffith, their leader. In the end he ends up following Griffith and joins the Hawk. From there they fight and move to complete Griffith's goal, his dream.

The Story is good, it is capturing and has plot and is very interesting as well. It is a strong plot that is done well. Though it does fail in some aspects such as explaining in greater detail their world, the kingdoms involved, and other things especially toward the end which I will discuss later. Despite that it still makes away as a great story.

The Characters are a strong aspect of the show, all of them are well done. Though you might hate some and want to kill them in a very bloody fashion they still, for the most part, are well done. Guts is a strong person but he fails to have any dream for himself, instead choosing like others to follow in Griffith's, but still wants more. Then you have Griffith who has a dream and is able to move people but he also suffers from his own weaknesses. No character is perfect but in that you find people who are human.

The Music is amazing, the opening and ending are just so awesome. The opening is so catchy and I have heard some one say it is the worst best opening, or something like that. I love it as I do the ending, not to mention that a lot of the other music in the anime is great as well. It is just great, the opening had be signing every time and is still my ringtone.
The Voice acting, having watched the English dub is pretty good. I have no complaints with it and rather thought that all the voices matched and did a nice job.

The Animation is old, but in that you can find that special charm. I liked it and after a while it all went right.

Now the ending as I said I would discuss earlier. The ending is confusing, a huge cliffhanger, and is just terrible, in my opinion. They need to explain more things, but in a way with that I think we can get a sense, or lack there of, what the other characters are felling. So there is that but overall I didn't like the ending. Now there are movies coming out/have come out. So far there are three which I haven't watched but I think I read that they pretty much catch up and go along with the series for the most part. However there is a good chance more movies will be made and with it this ending might go away and be cleared up. So I hope for that.

Overall though this is a great anime that I very much enjoyed despite some of its downfalls. It was able to keep me in close and tell me a good story and just do so much. It was very good and I recommend it.
