Wednesday Night Report: The Klassic Note Review

(This post title is on beta. I'm trying to think of a 'best of both worlds' blog for everything in my life. In Blogger. Stay tuned.)

Hi guys, I promised an entry a day for the week, so I decided to stay back to type this on my phone. No, I didn't get to go out. *sob*

Klassic Note Review
Hikasa Youko - EX:FUTURIZE
(Normally reviews are done with all the songs I listen or else no much meaning, but this is for beta as I mentioned)


[Limited Edition]                                                                                                                                          [Normal Edition]

How I got to this:
Well it's been some time since we heard the lovely voice that is Hikasa "Yocchan" Youko (wow her middle name), and up to her fourth single is quite an achievement, since her successful debut as a singer last year. Sadly, this isn't as prime as her previous releases (I can't say 'production'; It's not her composition) as she sings for the new season Anime "Z/X IGNITION", if I'm not wrong.

Verdict:
Too futuristic is my verdict, as I don't really take this genre. Not that I haven't heard this before. Rememberher collaboration album (which doesn't involve her besides singing) last year? That was different.

(1) EX:FUTURIZE
An upbeat, futuristic song that makes me feel hyped at least, but not impressive especially if you don't listen to the preview but the whole song. Amime song producers are doing the mistake of making songs longer than they should be, though no last phrase before the last chorus is spotted. Overall, I'm fine with this. Yes, it's in the I'm-in-too-deep-no-choice-but-to-take-it-in category. Haha.
Rating: 4 stars (Average)

(2) Technoholica
It may be good if they did a slow techno genre or something, but they didn't. So forget it. To add on, the English lyrics which Yocchan sang so inaccurately is giving me goosebumps. It's like Akiyama Mio from "K-ON!" trying to seduce a guy. So nah, no single ordering record already, Yocchan...
Rating: NOT IN LIST

In conclusion, quite an expected single. Not as surprising as the previous single where I got happy of Yocchan singing like Mio once again. Guess this shall not be the first order of the year. Last year this was much earlier...

Tuesday Night Report: The Self-Satisfactory Job

Now that I've done the last part of the puzzle, let's talk about it.

Wonder what I did just now? It's a long story, so let's start from the top.

Just a few weeks ago that I already noticed the serious consequence (actually isn't much, just that Dad will go crazy) of NOT ending up in an institution to further my education. (yes it's that bad) (yes I know it's been two years) (yea it's my fault for not taking note of the application dates) (yes... that's all?) This has (only now) been a worry of my parents (because they actually don't really care??) and yes, I currently have nowhere to go. That the case, I ought to be doing the alternative to studying as what most would: getting a job.

(Really if you're bored because you have a job or think I'm naive please stop reading any further. You have been warned.)

So I guess I have to do something to pass the time, or I will be referred to as a "freeloader". (As if I wasn't for the past two decades) Because now it's different. I'm grown up. That means that I have to be independent, even though I'm widely sponsored. It's like being a civilian and sponsored by the government, but smaller in scale. So about work... my cousin arranged me to take over his job as a...  Technical Support Officer. If no one knows what's that, my cousin says it's just simple computer troubleshooting, or that's what he said. Little do I know until I entered a resume (with his help, thanks again) and was in that semi-formal interview did I understand the reality: I do not work everyday (like twice a week?), need to know a lot more than my own supposed knowledge, and am given a life-inspiring monologue by the boss. WTF? I told to myself, and yeah, was an ordeal for one's first interview.

And he (the boss) he is right: I would have been better finding a full time or part time job outside, I don't have the skills required, and the rest of it? Now I even think he's pitying me because my cousin reeled me in. And after that, I've been complaining to my cousin of why he actually made it sound that simple...

By now you guys would've noticed or have already noticed these few years or many years (wow thanks loyal reader) that I'm scared of facing people, more especially to strangers. Guess it sounds correct for anyone human, but my confidence level here is a little extreme. Not extremely confident, but extremely timid.

*silence*

Now that I've lost 95% of my readers (if any in the first place), let me share what I think I've done to salvage such a situation. I've sent an email to whoever's in charge to tell them I quit the probation period cum test of my abilities and decided to find another job. But how? It has not been easy. Been spending the past few nights on the internet searching for suitable jobs, and with customer service out of my league, the search has not been easy. Mostly logistics which does not require long-term commitment.

By now if you think I'm in a dead end, you are dead right. (Not to make a rhyme, but...) So how? That's what I've been asking myself. But yes, I will continue to find a job, probably the papers, because I'm not going to stay at home. No one wants me to do that anyway. For now, I'm trying, so hope it helps.

Haiz, finally got it all out. Cya guys then, until next time... if you need a job let's search for one together! Ah, the others have gone... *sob*

(P.S.: Will I ever be satisfied with a job? Stay tuned to find out...)

(P.P.S.: Now that I'm doing a post every night, why not I do it for the week? Let's see if I can keep to the promise...)

Monday Night Report: Dream of BLEACH

Hi everyone, and welcome. Now trying out a new way to post using my phone instead from my home computer which I usually do. Since this is a dream scene, let's start without delay.

Ah recently been reading BLEACH Manga and seeing the fight finale of Sternritter As Nodt:
"Someone was fighting with As Nodt when before she was down she released a small fighting being (much like Starkk's little girl Lilynette) towards his opponent and exploded on impact. Both the Sternritter and the mini opponent vanished into thin air and reformed themselves on a pair of familiar Arrancar shoes. Turns out that it is the 9th Espada Aaroneiro with his iconic glass casing top with two small separate heads. He dashed at me and asked me if we could talk as if I were someone he knew. We shifted to somewhere more isolated on the ground. He talked about me having a sister Rukia and he suddenly attacked me which which pushed me towards a corner and into a wall..."

I have a feeling only hardcore BLEACH fans would understand the dream I'm saying now. Sorry for the others then.

Tomorrow: I reveal what's happening in my life now. まっぱで。

Sunday Night Report: Entertainment News Weekly

I don’t know what to think for a title so you guys will have to settle for this. Next time round I may have to write in a novel format, just to get you guys interested.

ANIME
Seitokai Yakuindomo: (I’ll have to start with this because referring to last week’s episode) Liked the way the animation team giving up and posting all the Manga jokes in at once. Saying that I guess more jokes are coming our way, provided you watch and I don’t keep chasing the Manga. Not for now, really.
Samurai Flamenco: Personal feud of Prime Minister to Masayoshi, conflicts with the MMM members and a poor old man who saved Masayoshi and he saved him before seem to be the topics for the week. Next week let’s see if it gets any worse. Haha. Actually, I’m waiting for a cliff hanger, like previous episodes…
Nagi no Asukara: So Shioshishio… is like before, just now covered in snow. Miuna is surprised by almost everything, from the scenery of the underwater town to the school the kids studied to this demigod who lives in the town. And they even managed to find Manaka, who is sitting on a stone which looks like a hand and covered in a bubble of air which somewhat does not destroy her Ena. Now that it IS destroyed (if you read this before watching so sorry it’s spoilers) they think of saving her but WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE TOWN KIDS? You think it’ll be fine?? (Audience: I guess…) Really. Hmm…
Golden Time: Guess Kouko is up and going again, along with Banri, which is somewhat still ruffled in his relationship with Linda. Next episode: What happens if you REALLY leave Banri and Linda to themselves…

SHOWS
No MythBusters this week. Next week have, so that’s good news.

MANGA
BLEACH: Let’s talk a little about it. Rukia recently came back with her new powers (well most generalise it like this, but we know specifically it is through training at the place no one really remembers xD) and is facing against As Nodt (not doing weird symbols, people), that Sternritter who brought Byakuya to his feet. That being said Rukia apparently can bring her opponents down to absolute zero, and move for 4 seconds. Amazing. But where’s the Bankai? Supposedly the first question asked, we also missed why Kubo does not want to continue to let her do her ‘dances’ for her Shikai. This time round it’s a little…
Tonari no Kashiwagi-san: Well if you guys have been focusing on Kashiwagi-chan taking Yuuto’s uniform then you’re missing something. Apparenly Tina’s boyfriends is interested in her selfie with the girls. Now that’s something to poke about…

I have absolutely no idea why the translators do not want to release the last chapter of Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. Scared we cry after reading, or them losing the readers after that? I just don’t get it…

MUSIC KLASSIC NOTE
Well this week there’s Ray, which I must say… pretty good. Not awesome, but good. At least they don’t screw up the song, and the PV is just great, in many ways. Next week’s with 2 singles I guess, miwa and SID. Both very looking forward to. But my birthday week’s the next, which is the week after next. (Audience: When’s your-) That is all the information you’re getting, if you don’t know.

Previews-wise… I’ve heard for sphere’s 5th Anniversary single on the end of the month, and it seems like the members are coming up with their own lyrics for the B-side song. OMG. I know. I see a “Toyosaki Aki lyrics” version and got a shock.

New in the list are one more song from FictionJunction “Hito mi no Chikara”, which means the album review was meaningless (because both songs I picked can be found in their singles), also another song from ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE because they are so damn awesome and cannot resist to hand-pick one “Thinking of You”. Think of me when you listen to this song, people, because I recommended it. Haha.

 

I guess that’s all for the week. Supposed to finish Chapter 9 by today but… the relatives like to meet on today, so… well. Guess I’ll do it after my parade- Well that’s NOT for you guys to know. This should be a page of happiness, or enjoyment, whichever you prefer. Cya guys then. Until next time… remember to drop in here every Sunday, at least. Or any other way of the week, but at least once, ok?

Here’s a picture-slotted-between-pages-two-and-three image for you guys to come back next week: (Been some time since I posted my last one)

(Audience: Cheh lidat only ar?) What if I posted this to give you a taste of what’s coming next week? Would you come back for more? (Audience: HELL YEAH…)

Monday Night Report: Entertainment News Weekly

Hi guys. Sorry about the wait. If anyone actually waited for my opinion, I apologise for the delay. (Audience: What’s with the formalities…) Shall we start then?

ANIME
Samurai Flamenco: What do you know? That 60000th… I don’t remember what number monster that looks like the Flamenco is defeated so easily. And we finally know why, because it’s the underwork of the government. Really? That’s what happens in this show, plenty of cliff hangers. So now what? Even all the other countries in the world is also suffering the same fate, their “heroes” at least. I seriously don’t know how this show can go already. Really.
Nagi no Asukara: Yes, Kaname is back, and so what? Some cannot accept their own feelings, and some just want others back. All this change or no change thing is kind of confusing me already, and I can’t help but wonder what can happen to this love polygon. That on a side note, they decide to discover what is Shioshishio like underwater now after five years of ignorance. And I guess the results are surprising? We shall see that next week then…
Golden Time: Banri was awake to hit the brakes for their recent accident, but is it him? And seriously screw Kouko’s father who just slapped her for this. Ignoring that, looks like Kouko does seem worried about Banri and his ex-girlfriend Linda, huh. Don’t know how will that progress, but let’s hope Banri stays loyal. Whoever he chooses.
Tonari no Seki-kun:

I somewhat don’t understand what’s with the delay with Seitokai Yakuindomo*. Is it because of the translation of the censoring? Or is the show censored itself?

SHOW
MythBusters: Well an interesting shows to determine what experiments we CAN try at home, as controversy to what they always tell us, to NOT try them at home. That’s interesting, but I guess there are people who will try. Not me though unfortunately; I seem to not have any chains at home long enough or even at least two of those metronomes…

KLASSIC NOTE
If those who don’t get the title of this section needs a beating… or an introduction. Refer to the 5th Anniversary site for details.

Well got a bunch of songs this week, proceeding the recent Chinese New Year holiday. Took a straw with Yuuki Aoi’s first single (it seems) because of the unique melody. Well it’s one of those times again I have to hear such a song to balance my inner soul, I think. Past experiences include LITTLE CREATURES and Base Ball Bear. The PV is the highlight though: I didn’t notice she had so much in her like Ayachi…

Also gotten PV for the one above, miwa’s new song (PV rather cool, as always) and SID’s new song too, “hug”. Sounds like a song I would like so I took it down. (PV is rather touching, more touching if I understand the song) A few days before took down Ajikan’s new PV “Rolling Stone” and thought it’s okay, but will give a further elaboration once the special album comes out on the 26th. Yesh, this month.

Also I just received Ray’s new single for Anime “Nagi no Asukara”, yep. The song was… I expected it to not be long, and it wasn’t at all disappointing. Short though, but good. PV-wise… pure fan service only? So I guess I shouldn’t elaborate. Rather plain though, the scenes…

That’s all. I feel like writing more about my life, but I’m not in the mood to. APoL is in great progress, hope to finish Chapter 9 ASAP. Cya guys then, until next time… stay well.

[P.S.: (Audience: Really, what’s with the formalities?) いろいろあったね~ (Audience: Huh?)]
