Hey Gang,
Well… don’t I feel a bit like a maroon today. I was going through my artbooks/perfect guides today, and I realized that I have an XChange2/Tokimeki Check-in artbook.
So I start paging through the XChange2 part, when I come across some screen shots of this light-blue haired girl… that looks like Aihara. So I start thinking "oh… I guess they were originally going to have Aihara Takuya have a light-blue shade of hair."
Anyway, so I start playing today, in an effort to see if I can actually win Maiko, and get side tracked with Daisuke. So, I goto the neighboring school to get some photos for him, and run across Otori… who looks exactly like Aihara. Anyway, this gets me thinking 'hey… wait a min, I’ve seen here somewhere before.‘
So, I go look in the artbook, and low and behold, there she is. Boy, was my face red.
Okay, so it wasn’t that great of a story.
On a total side note, Chobits’ “Chi” must be really popular with the CWRU Anime Society. Every year they have a competition to see who gets to put their dojinshi onto the CWRU Anime Society shirt. And this year someone drew Chi from Chobits. Problem is, of the 25 members of the club, only 1 of them actually know who Chi was… and she claimed that Chi was her own drawing. Kinda miffed me a bit, so I brought in my Chobits manga to show her and the others that “Chi” is actually CLAMPs possession. Well… that went over like a ton of bricks.
Anyway, just wanted to mention about the XChange 2 artbook and perfect guide.
Mike
