(Sh*t what do I normally start first? *Audience whispers* Oh yeah) ANIME
Eh… As you know the new Summer 2012 Anime have been surfacing from Japan to the world already, so I’m already slow in updating my progress. How about let’s talk about previous season first?
Sakamichi no Apollon ended… quite a weird way. Not what I expected (like an epic performance or whatsoever), but it started the priest, so I can call it “epic”, haha. Eh… I don’t remember much of
Natsuiro Kiseki ended in context of the stone, no doubt. But then it was just as weird as the other episodes anyway, so I have nothing much to say. What’s happen has got to happen, like Saki leaving for Tokyo, even though they really loved the never-ending Summer Vacation. I’d like a never-ending event. What would yours be? *Audience hints* Mine? Eh… A never-ending block week? (Audience: Hah, you hope…)
Hyouka leh… it’s still some distance from the end, and it IS ONE FULL SEASON, guys. Yeah, similar to me watching one full-season Spring 2011 Anime last year, (if you remembered) Nichijou. The mystery is getting good, even though there are empty lines in between, meaning they could’ve made it half-season (and ended now). Eh recently they’ve reached their School Festival, and in it also lies a mystery, even though it’s just Chitanda-san playing around the stalls and Oreki sitting there doing his work best – slacking. And selling 200 anthologies. Haha, that’s not gonna be easy. But there’s gotta be a way. I think… I really like how they play with human thinking in the previous movie-completion activity, making the writer retire for a more exciting ending. Evil people nowadays, huh…
===========
Let’s talk about the new Anime then. I’ve caught up some Anime, since it’s POP (POP!) (Audience: |||… You’re not over yet, are you?) (Hehe…) over for me, and I need more inspiration for APoL. As always, I take some shows with good animation quality and comedy, especially the latter, starting with Binbougami ga!, a show about the luckiest girl in universe(and the bustiest and cutest, really look at the girls in school…) (*Audience jeers*) (What?) – Sakura Ichiko – (I can even remember her name! Of course, Kana-chan stars her role~) AND the most unlucky God of Misfortune in existence, Momiji if I’m not wrong. And yeah, it’s like telling an unlucky guy to make a lucky guy unlucky. Understand? Yeah, it’s like the methods the unlucky guy uses would definitely get on him (in this case, her) before the lucky guy (in this case, girl) gets any damage. Well, and I like how it mentions about the impact of luck on others, like Ichiko’s butler Suwano, who almost died because of her. Now that he’s married to form a 52-25 marriage (五二二五，meaning a marriage of an elder with a teen), we see more characters appearing to help… either side? And yeah more Tomacchan voicing! Yeah! Haha. But then, I don’t like her character she stars wor, so… “man”?
And honestly, the Anime I introduce in this segment (See the line above? It’s not ASCII Art you know…) (Audience: |||…) are going in descending preference, or you could depict as “what I caught on first sight” to “what I think I can watch till the end”. This belongs to the I’m-afraid-of-this-show-as-it-may-contain-Hentai-content category? (Haha long hyphenated words again?) It’s Kokoro Connect, if you guys are guessing. You guys aren’t? Oh. Well, it’s another production by TBS, so animation quality is definitely good, though details of the art are simple. I caught sight of the show due to the soul-switching concept getting evidently occasional, and… I love the Opening Song. Brings me back to my childhood. (Audience laughs) Haha. I laughed at what I typed too. It’s okay on the first episode, and there’s Nagase Iori starring Aki-chan! So who wouldn’t watch? Haha, no lah. Just her only? No. My point is, it’s her that made this show more intriguing, like her acting a male perspective role, touching her own breasts only to attract attention from other girls who want to do her too? OKAY! TAKE THAT I DIDN’T SAY THIS SHOW WAS GOOD AT ALL! Haiz. No, please. No Hentai content, please…
Last but not least (well it’s the least, so…) is Tari Tari, a show about ONE student creating ANOTHER choir club to own the present one in their college. Bastard right? How could she do that anyway? And what would this bring? For the time being it brings touching stories, so I’m still watching. But I tell you, that college is rather screwed up, like the Principal sees a name and approves the club. Really? But then I’m a little displeased with the songs they put inside, and there aren’t veteran singers in the cast, so I’m hoping for the best. Yeah? I can still abandon a show at Episode 3…
Overall, the new season brings prospective. And I’m already loving the Opening Themes of the shows. Haha I guess I’ll stick with it to the end~
You see, people need to get influenced by others, right?
SHOWS
Oh MythBusters has already stopped weeks ago, so we can drop that talk. (Audience: ??) Haha at least till the next batch of episodes surface? Yeah? Recently went to download Jeff Dunham’s performance: Back in USA for him, still in South Africa for Walter and Achmed. Haha I just love the Achmed segment, especially in his new show two more characters are introduced, including Achmed’s… son? Yeah:
MUSIC
Onto music then, I supposed you had a good laugh, haha. Eh… it’s a long story, really. I picked songs from too many songs that I need a recall session. Eh… I started with listening to Sphere’s latest live “Athletic Harmonies” back a month ago and took back Mina-chan’s B-side for her 3rd single “Colourful Diary” and one from Tomacchan’s album two years ago “REWIND”. Weeks later I took Kugimiya Rie’s first own album. (Audience: ??) Haha I know you guys will start to ask who the heck is she liao. She stars people like Shana, and Taiga years ago on Toradora! Yeah, she at her late 20s is getting herself an album, and I can say… it’s quite good. The mood is there (or, at least, my mood is there too), and Composer from eufonius is also doing a good job. Oh the Composer also is a band singing for Kokoro Connect’s Opening, so have a listen. And in this connected world I hear Chatmonchy, who once again collaborated with Masafumi Gotoh, the vocal of Ajikan on a new song. Sadly it’s a B-side on Chatmonchy’s new single, how pathetic.
Wow paragraph too long, so break off. Recently I’ve hit NANO-MUGEN COMPILATION 2012, which is… most appealing to me. I placed plenty of stars on a lot of songs, and ended up with 5. (It was 8 at first?) Ajikan this time emphasises on music tracks, and I personally took more Japanese songs, duno why. Also Chatmonchy (above, just to fit into the conversation) and SCANDAL released new singles, which would break the ice on the second-half of this year’s songs, which include (I just name a few lah): Aqua Timez, Tomatsu Haruka, ALTIMA (Shana Endings?) HOME MADE Kazoku, YUI (yeah that “fight” song), Kana-chan, miwa and many more. See I tell you something must happen after NANO-MUGEN. Haha…
Sphere also had their new album released, which only included three new songs? Meh, trying to cut cost and make me buy the album? I almost did I tell you, but I held back. Took some song with a Chinese feel (you listen you’ll know), “Niji-iro no Yakusoku” than the other two songs. Talking about buying, FeDex is bringing in a parcel for me around tomorrow noon (yeah) containing 13 singles costing me 250 bucks. Hell yeah, all has broken loose here man, and I don’t care what my parents say. Wait till they see the box man. It includes the songs I listen within 2012, that fulfil certain requirements I set (like a secret ingredient I shall not reveal, but you can guess), and does not cost a bomb. Haha. Albums cost a bomb. I’ll think more than twice in getting that. I wouldn’t for Aki-chan’s album, by the way. Muahahaha… (Audience: Wait till you press the “Order” button on that…)
About side songs… VELTPUNCH people listened to sunday morning bell as shown on MySpace, so I also had a listen. Kawada Mami is getting on TV, so I gave her a listen too. After that it’s all the Anime song previews I’m listening to prevent myself from getting crazy when I hear them, spanning from next week to next month. Yeah Anime songs have always been a surprise to me, so I better be ready…
===========
Wow with the so many exciting things happening nowadays… WHAT THE HECK AM I IN NATIONAL SERVICE??? (Audience: Chill man. You don’t wanna kena STOMP just like that.) Oh yeah, relax. And yeah, I must compose myself for the parcel tomorrow! Haha! Cya guys then! I’m SOOOOOO READY! Take it up, Kawada Mami!
[P.S.: As with the occasion I’m supposed to place a picture, over such a long time liao. But as with the occasion now I think I’ll reserve that later…]
[P.P.S.: Mind the… not-so-attractive face of Mami-san. Just imagine it’s Tomacchan holding a guitar back when she’s doing her PV for her previous single “Oh My God”. *silence* *giggle* Haha…]
Wait! I think I can place a picture. Here’s how the Media Player with the NEW CPU is doing:
