May’n with Dancers I’m finding it hard to find extensive news, footage or videos about this event, especially those that pertain to AKINO’s or May’n’s performances. I’ll update as soon as I find more info. AKINO performed Sousei no Aquarion and GO Tight!, while May’n performed Northern Cross and Don’t be Late. No May’n and [...]

Oh darn. My love-hate relationship with Kino is reaching a crescendo of sorts. What was supposed to be a nice, routine trip to Kino for me to check some books out eventually ended up with me buying this: ©2008 Kurogane's Anime Blog. All Rights Reserved..

Considering the fact that one can never have enough Kino no Tabi, I went out and bought Tokyopop’s release of “Book One of The Beautiful World.” I find it interesting and I guess fitting that Amazon lists the book as: Popular in this category: (What’s this?) #56 in Books > Religion & Spirituality > Fiction > Visionary Fiction Interesting mainly [...]

After reading 0ne’s introduction to Freedom Formula, I knew that I just had to read it. After all, I fell in love on first sight with the mecha design ever since I spotted the figurines at STCC a couple of months ago. It’s great that Kinokuniya imported it in. Unlike Japanese manga tankoubons, comic volumes are [...]

Yukino’s really into the recent reports of ghosts in the school, though Sayaka’s really freaked out by the stories. Later that day during gym class, Sayaka [...]

A classmate of mine in Japanese class wanted me to start off with some manga reading so that he could put his Japanese reading skills to the practise, as well as to slightly improve his vocabulary. Since I attend Japanese lessons twice a week and the main Kinokuniya Branch’s just down the road, I usually make [...]

A familiar name, yeah? I know her most as Sakura from Tsubasa Chronicles, Hazuki from Sketchbook, and Misaki from Welcome to the NHK. Not to mention theme song performances for those aforementioned series, as well as Sousei no Aquarion’s 1st ED and, my favorite, the OPs for the ARIA series. But I never knew that [...]

[Posted @ 8:43 PM]Went to EKKA this morning/afternoon ... well it was fun, a good experience but not worth the AUD$16 lol. Blah, I'm just stingy XD. However, I took alot photos of alot of farm animals there. Seducing their younger sister lol.Nanda nya~o<iframe width="312" height="176" src="http://ext.nicovideo.jp/thumb/za4274507" scrolling="no" style="border:solid 1px #CCC;" frameborder="0">【ニコニコ動画】Candy boy 主題歌「Bring up…LOVE」nayuta</iframe>Hmmm, it seems like Candy☆Boy has another theme song? Bring up ... LOVE by nayuta. Well all I can say this song will take a while to seep in ... lol. The Mandarin sub is not out yet ... I update a summary until then. Meanwhile, watch the RAW, it's relatively easy to understand, basically it's a flashback episode where Kanade and Yukino first came to Tokyo. It seemed like Kanade wasn't happy with her dorm room lol and pratically zoned out with Yukino unpacked their belongings. Yukino tried to cheer Kanade up by buying her ice-cream but Kanade's still gloomy about their room lol. In the end, Kanade was touched when Yukino told her that as long as she's with Kana-chan, she's fine with it. The episode ended with Yukino managing to get Kanade to agree to sleep together on the same bed lol. Yukino: 'Ne, Kana-chan.'Kanade: 'What?'Yukino: 'Let's sleep together, Kana-chan, this way, it'll be alot warmer, surely.'Kanade: 'Wha-? Uumm.'Yukino: 'Ka-na-chan~.'Kanade: 'Maa, mou, can't help it then.'Yukino: 'Yay! Yatta!'Yukino: 'Kana-chan, daisuki~! [I like you~!]'Kanade: 'Yes, I know, I know.'Yukino: 'Ehh? You don't feel that way too, Kana-chan?'Kanade: 'Uh, su-ki desu [I like it].' LOL, XD.Random rants;I'm really really tired, walking for like 2-3 hours before having a vegetables-filled lunch I prepared last night lol. It's a great day to walk around, getting into the excitable spirit and the rides at the theme park section looks really scary and fun XD.[Signing off 9:41 PM]
