SHERLOCK; My Recent Addiction

"It's more expensive to be addicted to anime than crack"; There is nothing I can say to prove or disprove because I've never been hooked on crack. The only thing I can affirm is that, it's really expensive to have anime as a hobby. It might be DVDs, action figures, posters, collectible items; but it really makes my wallet suffer. I'm so into these things that I never thought that I would ever watch an another english series. I have watched gossip girl and House MD, but I was never really hooked. I only watched them when I had exhausted all the anime that I could get my hands on. I didn't think I have the need to watch them right away. Then came SHERLOCK. It started when, of course, I didn't have any anime left to watch (at Kissanime btw) and I asked my friend (Angela) if she had anything good on her laptop.. I suggested that we could exchange an external drive and put everything she has and she told me about SHERLOCK and how brilliant the story is and I was like, okay I'll give it a try. It took me a week to remember that I had the files on the external drive - that's how uninterested I in english series.. seriously :) I had just finished watching Akagami no Shirayuki Hime and I decided to take a peek at the first episode of SHERLOCK because I had nothing to else to do that day. IT WAS A BOMB! First of all, I had no clue about the story. I mean, I knew SHERLOCK generally is a detective but that was all. A detective. But I didn't know he was that awesome. Secondly, I didn't know that the characters in this series were played by the same characters from "THE HOBBIT"; I AM A BIG FAN (Bilbo Baggins and Smaug's voice! How lucky can I get). Thirdly, I always find the british accent SEXY. That was a very big factor haha! A sexy & intelligent man with a wonderful voice with a great sense of humor accompanied by his funny side kick incorporating with bloody twists and unexpected turns of events; I WAS ON a HIGH! It was just the kind of story that I was craving. It was not slow like other suspense thriller series and every episode is nerve wracking, in a good way :) I'm really looking forward to the 4th season.. I love Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman... Two Thumbs up for this spectacular series!

Two thumbs up for your notebook!
