Winding Road
Posted On February 12, 2007
The song Winding Road by Porno Graffiti (you may know it as the first ending theme to the lukewarm anime Ayakashi Ayashi by the overrated studio Bones) makes me want to embark on a great quest. It inspires the pioneer in me. I feel like going out to California and digging for gold like, right now. Man.
Besides Winding Road I have little interest in other Porno Graffiti songs. Not much of a j-rock person.
In other news I want to watch the Tenchi OVA, the Tenchi TV series and all the Tenchi movies right now. Blame Tokyo Kid once again for playing the TV opening while I was in the store. It was dirty of them to have the s-CRY-ed opening on before to lure me in…
Gotta get my hands on a Tenchi TV boxset.

But not Tenchi in Tokyo, right? Ha. …Right?
I remember getting my copy of the Tenchi OVA boxset for $14 at a Karma music store. BEST FRIKKIN’ DEAL EVER. Of course, I wonder now if it might be a boot leg. But it runs and looks like it’s legit, so I’m not complaining.
If you mean this one then yes, it’s very official.
Yeah, Shin Tenchi Muyo (or, Tenchi in Tokyo) wasn’t all that hot. It was basically the second movie spread across 26 episodes, which was kind of weird. I mean, after Tench TV and the movies I have little interest in the franchise (though I’ve been meaning to pick up Pretty Sammy…) I should probably get those new OVAs, too.
Yeah, that does look like my boxset. Thanks for the pic. I still can’t figure out why they would be selling them for $14. I mean, it wasn’t like some random trade-in, there were maybe ten copies I remember seeing. Oh well. It’s fun to get anime for cheap. Like those Gasaraki DVDs for $3 each. God bless Half Price Bookstore.
Yea, I tried to watch Tenchi TV, but I got lost at some point. Or lost interest. There’s just to much stuff to watch, you know.
Oh, I know this is totally off topic, but you mentioned how Battle Star Galatica was really good? I was just wondering, can a newbie just jump into it, or should I go back to the beginning? I don’t get Sci-Fi channel at college, so it’s hard to keep up with any shows on there.
David mentioned how much he liked it, not me. I don’t watch TV. Haha.
And I loved Tenchi TV because of Kiyone~ She was my first anime crush~
Battlestar is one of those shows where you have to catch up on DVD. I started watching it last summer between the 2nd and 3rd season and I’ve been watching the third ever since. I love it.
Hmmm, alrighty. Maybe I’ll shell out for it. Afterall, you’re not the only one who says it rocks. Thanks for the info!
See Wildarms, I’m right all the time.
Do you take pleasure in making of a fool of yourself? You do it all the time, off-line and on.
Winding Road is so subdued compared to other stuff I’ve heard from Porno Graffitti, but I also like it since it sound to me like a song of overcoming hardships while waiting for something good to happen… or something like that. It’s a nice song and the harmonicas make it for me. :3
