Ono Daisuke Said my name O_O
I watched episode 20 of Pandora Hearts yesterday and I got a great shock.
Ono daisukes character in Pandora Hearts, Jack, appeared and he said my name!!!!!!!! >0<
I'm so going to cut that part out,lol.
I have heard it in 2 other animes, one being from a none important guy in Infinite Ruyvus, who kinda stalked the girl with my name. And the other time was a few months ago in Bleach, when a crazy transa called himself 20 different stuff, and somewhere in all of tnat came my name. Malin laughed at me while I cried at that time :P
Also, I love this anime, it isss sooooooo wonderfuuuuuuul <3
Great characters, awesome story and funny events etc...well, of course the seiyus are great too,lol.
Btw, while looking at the beutiful picture below, I hear Ono/Jack saying my name XD
*sob* Really gives a girl her inner strenght *crying smile*
Last Bleach with Max
Today, Malin ( /Max ) and I finnaly catched up with the Bleach anime. With todays new episode, we had a total of 9 episodes to watch: 225-233.
I have been following Bleach since it started airing, but 2~3 years back I started to see it with Malin. It has kinda been our thing, especially since Malin only watch few animes.
BUT, starting next week Malin will move to Lund for study T_T
So today was our last time watching it together *sob*
The first episodes for today involved more individual battles against the Espadas. It also brought with it nice scenes with Hisagi Shuuhei and Kira Izuru. In one scene Hisagi was being held in the fist by a big monster, kinda like a scene from King Kong :PStarting from episode 227, the Espada arc is once again on halt, meaning that what happens next is not part of the real story but just a filler story. And I....I have been looking forward for this for weeks!
The reason ís written a bit further down, first a complain. ^^;
But before that, episode 227,228 and 229 were each a one episode filler episode =_=
Sure some parts of it was fun, but the beach episode.....WTF, or rather WHY?!
In this episode some shinigamis, especially the woman association comes to our world to spend a day at the beach.
This wasn't entirely a filler. It's based from a 4 panel short story, on pehaps 7~10 pages.
It contained some fun parts, like Byakuyas art ability and something like Ukitakes funeral, though he was only sleeping :P
But then, there was this Melon monster with tentacles.
Beach Bikini womans with big breasts+ Tentacle Monster = Tentacle hentai !!! >(x___x)>
Of course it wasn't really hentai, but it was obviously that it was leaning that way.
I mean, come on! Why soil such a good anime as Bleach with such shit =_= it just irritates me.
But well, leaving that, I will go into the greatest part of today = New filler story!!!!!!!!!!
Since I found out that they were going to start a new one, I have been so excited....of course it was also because of the great new SEIYUS,lol, the best part being that Nakamura Yuuichi would get to voice a new character who would have a big role in the plot.
And GOD, his character is just wonderful!
His character is Muramasa, the main evil guy ^0^
And guessing by his names, he is based on the story of the legendary sword with the same name - at least I see that as his background story, untill he will tell his version by himself in the anime.
FILLER PLOT: In Soul society, many shinigamis start to feel that something is wrong with their own Zanpaktou. After being summoned by the Captain Command, the captains of Gotei 13, their vice captains and some others gathers.
Muramasa shows up and declares that he has captured the Captain Command, with the help of their Zanpaktous, who has freed themself from their shinigami. So now they have to fight without their usual power and harsh cirumstances.
Well, thats kinds what has happend through this 4 episodes.
And after telling this, I can now reveal the other great Seiyu I looked forward for and I'm still shocked over his role.
HIRIKAWA DAISUKE, voices the character SENBONZAKURA = BYAKUYAS ZANPAKTOU!!!!!! O_O O_O O_O
This means that forever I will always think of Hirakawa when Byakuya use his wepon.
( pehaps a bit exxagereated :P )
Still, back to the most important part of the day = MALIN!
Before and after watching todays last episode, we toasted with a glass of Cider....It was kinda like a Bleach-watching-Break-up ,lol XDDDD
But Maxis, I will always keep you in mind when I think of Bleach*sob* forever!!!!!!!
*standing on a cliff and shouting,
As the waves fiercly hits the cliffwall,
and seagulls cries in fear,
I look up at the cloduy sky,
painted by the sundown,
Thorn by a lonely heart,
but still filled love,
I raise my hand towards the sky,
Do a Thumb up and say with a smiling face:
Max, even if we are apart,
let us still enjoy next weeks episode of Bleach from afar <3*
Lastly, I will post a picture of Malins favorite character from Bleach :3
Hitsugaya Toushiro.....(voiced by Paku Rumi, btw XP )
Amatsuki
A few days ago I finished watching the Amatsuki anime.
I really loved this anime, so I had to be brave and force myself to finish it, or else I would have probably put it on hold for another half year.
It was a great anime, even to the end(13 episodes)...or rather not, since it ended right in the middle of something super interesting =_=
I won't go into all of that right now.
Anyway, because of that I have started to read the manga instead. It will obviously contain alot different events than the anime and I will probably continue to compare the anime and manga constantly, but it will not change that this is a really great story.
I also listened to the Amatsuki Dj cd1 today. It was just tottaly hilarious XD
The hosts are Suwabe Junichi(=Bonten) and Yusa Kouji(-Shinonome Kon)
At the beginning they introduced the show as their characters from the anime, Kon trying to be very humble and think of the listeners while Bonten was just being his selfish self.
Then they changed to normal and talked about different things.
Both Fukuyama Jun(-Tokidoki) and Paku Rumi(-Kuchiha) guested some tracks - also both once as their character and then as their usual self.
They commented that they had gotten fan letters from fans from different countries, and talked about how awesome that was and discussedd the reason for it.
That lead them into that if there is anyone who have just bought the cd, but still havn't bought the DVD, that person should go out and buy it immidetly.
Suwabe even said in english"DO IT NOW" XD
They also mentioned that the staff had asked them to not talk about different things but they said that they will talk about it anyway and that somehow, they always end up sounding very pervy XD
They were 11! ( 11人いる!)
They were 11, or Juuichinin Iru, was addapted from a manga by Hagio Moto in 1975. She was part of the 70's called "Year 24 group" (Nijūyo-nen Gumi) , being one of the womans who advanced and made basic structures to the Shojo manga of this time. They also created some of the first Shounen-ai mangas.
Some other from the gruop is Takemiya Keiko - who has made my beloved Terra he and Ikeda Ryouko who made Rose of Versailles.
Anyway, that is enough info, now to the movie ^^
Btw the movie was made 1986, so not as a old as the manga but still..old,lol.
Also, thehe manga was only 1.volume, so I'm guessing they got most of it into the movie.
SUMMARY:
The setting is in the future, and mankind has reached space. In space lies the oppertunity within the great space academy, which people (creatures) from all different planets try to get in to. Tada, together with 9 other strangers are to start the final test. All wearing space suits board an abonded spaceship and descovers that they are no longer 10, but 11 people now. Together they have to maintain and survive on the ship for 52 days, always with the worries over the 11th person.
Characters From the upper right to lover left:
1. Chako Kacka - Chako ( I think it was that :P)
2. Glenn Groff - Thickhead
3. Vidmenir Knume - Knu
4. King Mayan Baceska - King (Ouji)
5. Doricas Soldam IV - Soldam
6. Tadatos Lane - Tada ( main character)
7. Frobericheri Frol - Frol ( and no, it isn't a girl^^)
8. Dolph Tasta - Rednose
9. Amazon Carnais - Amazon
10. Toto - Toto
11. Ganigas Gagtos - Ganga
REVIEW:
The movie started off pretty good, speeding up the background story for the main character Tada, summarizing his reason for taking the test, through flashbacks with the elder from his village. It took only 10 minutes for the movie to reach the important point of realization of the 11th person, enlarging it with a big headline.
All characters looked very different, really showing the typhical style of 70-80's character ^^
But as said before, not everyone of them looked human, especially Vidmenir Knume, called only Knu and Glenn Groff, mostly-or rather, always called Thickhead. The character design was intersting, all different in a really big ways!
Another interesting point with the fact of different planets, is that it also meant different cultures for all of them.
And the story was truly really good, I'm still stunned over how much it exceeded my expectations (which I didn't have much of from the beginning - except that it was made by a great mangaka XD)
It continued to have a good flow, perhaps a little bit to fast with the passing days,
And because there were no options to figure out who was the 11th member, the lingering eager feeling of wanting to figure out lasted though the whole movie ^^
Perhaps I should have said this before, but I love when a serie contends new or different elements from what I have branded as "typhical ~Cliche" So a movie like this from a whole different generation is really into my liking.
SEIYU:
Since it's such an old movie, I wasn't expecting any "seiyu time", but unexpected there was one guy, who is even part of Neo Romance appearing :D
Any guesses?
For the Kings voice, we have Angeliques Claviss (-The protector of the darkness Sacuria in the universe) Tanaka Hideyuki!! ^0^
And he was perfect for the role as snobby King too,lol.
But that wasn't all, there was another person who I'm not that very familiar with, but who still lightened up a Seiyu moment for me.
Tada is voiced by Kamiya Akira. I have to admit that I can't come up with any good character he has voiced... except a non important ass character in Saint Seiya..Argol *grrr* >.<. But I have one song, which I think is from City hunters called "Lonely Lullaby" and it is very nice.
Oh,thats right! This is tottaly my own thoughts and not true to the real fact, but Chacko's voice was super-mega alike YOSHINOS XDDDDD So I sat and made comments for myself that it was Yoshinos father,lol XDDD.
CONCLUSION:
This is a really good anime which I really recommend. Even if you may dislike the old animation, the stlye or the layout, it is still worth to check out. Perhaps it will even teach you a good portion of how much animes has evolved in 20 years.
And if not for that, then it will have to be for this big thing I will tell you about now * takes a deep breath*
Do I have to say more?!
........Btw, this is tottaly unrelated to the movie, but when I checked out her profile I found out that she had done the character design for illusion of Gaia O_O It's an old Snes RPG I played some years ago (on pc then of course) It was different and funny from usual game. You only controlled the main character, but you had friends who would follow you and always say something funny - especially the conversation with the spoiled girl were funny.
But even though you played with one character, you had the great ability to change your appearance to a knight with sword XD You can see the difference in the picture beneth, from the usual boy to Sir.Blondy :)
Final Fantasy XIII + XIV
Today I also saw some short information about Nr.14 in the FF serie ^W^ !!!!!. Probably old news, but I'm still a bit shocked that they come with this already, since XIII is still the biggest topic.
That reminds me....when the hell do I get to know the Seiyu for NOCTIS,Versus main character???????! >_______<
Snow and Lightning was annonced a long time ago, so I just want to hear Noctis voice now*sob*.
I have been trying to guess who would fit his character too At first I thought perhaps it would e Miyano Mamoru, since he has gotten tons of roles since he won as the best male seiyu last year. His voice as Setsuna (-Gundam 00) would probably fit Noctis a lot.
Before that I had also thought about Namikawa Daisuke, with a voice which is something between Beniwa (-Utawarerumono) and Ulquirroas (-Bleach) But for the moment, I'm hoping that Matsukaze Masaya will do the voice. Just a little thougher version of Blue/Joseph's (-Blassreiter), more like Jin's (-Seirei no Moribito) would be perfect.
I can only continue to hold my thumbs ^^
Also I want to know more about Final Fantasy XIII: Agito, which will be released to PSP.
This is the one I know the least about, not that I know that much about the other ones either ^^;;
But I like what I have seen so far, to say. Especially the massive collection of characters right of the hook :3
Final Fantasy XIV on the other hand will be a follow up of XI, meaning that it will be a new online game.
I checked the trailer, which had a nice catching of prologue stuff and few scenes.
Here is the link for the preview btw ^^:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fETeHFATJw8
With all this I....I really want to hurry up and master japanese =_=
then when I go to Japan I will save money and buy a PS3 and all thease FF games X3
Since I would rather puke than play Final Fantasy with dubbed voices *brrp* I have no choise than to wait for that time ne.
Well, I still have my hands full up with other Final Fantasy games anyway...reminds me that I should continue playing VII.
...Even more, it reminds me that I was right before the final boss in FF II,III and also V.
....danm XDDDDDDDDDDDD
Really shows how bad I'm at finishing stuff,lol.
Kiniro no Corda - Anime
Yesterday I finished watching Kurenai and had a hard time deciding for next anime to rewatch+complete. I wanted something with a light feeling, nothing with a sense of great attachment.
But most animes that came to mind has a small irritaion tagging along....an overflown of irritating girls =_=
So instead I choose a school anime, or rather, an anime full of good guys X3
Kiniro no Corda~Primo Passo / La Corda d`oro~Primo Passo ^___ <
I was able to watch 2 episodes this morning - before I went into town on a interview.
After I came home I watched until episode 8, meaning that I have already passed the re:watching of it and is now on new episodes^_^
I wanted to watch mroe, but I took a short break and feel asleep instead. My sister woke me up to give me my cellphone, and at the same time one of my cats snuck in. She jumped up on my bed and was more cuddling than usual.
I was still only half awake and too into Kiniro no Corda ( -rememeber that I had Cannon on mind the whole time before I fell asleep- in my dream - and when I woke up too)
Episode 8 had ended with a troubled Tsukimori Len, and so when my cat was so happy I said:
"Tsukimori-kun, you aren't as tsunderu and cold as usual, what have happend to you?"
Then my cat catched a glimpse of the leftovers from my lunch, and started to try to lick the plate. I pushed her away and said:
" So you weren't cuddling at all, you just wanted food?! You are as bad as Hirihara-senpai and Nagi" (- Nagi is one of my other cats who Aya really dislikes,lol)
" Wait, you aren't Tsukimori, I havn't seen so far yet..hmm, Aya? Ohhh..." After some mumbling I finnaly became fully awake XD
Kiniro no Corda ~Seiso Gakuin Sai
I really can't stop being grateful to the Seiyu forum T_T
since today one person upploaded Kiniro no Corda ~Seiso Gakuin Sai, which is of course a live event with the cast from the Neoromance Otome game serie with the same name.
I have only watched 5 minutes of it so far, being the opening and introduction of the whole cast. But I'm guessing that this is supposed to be related to the ~Secound Passo~ which came this year, especially since the newly added character Etou Kiriya = Hino Satoshi is attending ^0^
It will be nice to see his acting on scene. I have only seen him before in the Kiseki no Hana event, and he had such an...aura,lol. Maybe because he had to be dressed up (- since they had do a mix of typhical seiyu voice cover while acting. He always looked like he was preaching,lol)
At the introduction he enters last, really gathering the attention.
I really wish to see this, but I guess I have to finish watching the first season + Secound Passo Ova before that,lol.
Of course, if I want to make the attention on the seiyus (immediatley, since of course that will be the main attraction later) I could watch it now. But I havn't gotten the oppertunity to play any of the games yet, so I want to know more about the characters (especially with the 3 added characters, which didn't appear in the first anime)
Oh yeah! It just hit me that maybe I should make a short sum up about Kiniro, for those who have no bloody idea what I'm talking about =_=;;;
First of all, Kiniro no Corda is an Otome game = meaning a simulation dating game for girls, the main purpose being to fall in love with one of the character in the games.
STORY: The story in Kiniro is that on the school start of the secound year Hino Kahoko starts seeing a little fairy. The happy fairy,Lily, happily rings the legendary bells, since he finnaly found the choosen one. He gives Hino a magical violin and want's her to use it and kinda help the world with the music. Hino refuses to belive in this and runs to class. Hino's schools is seperated between the regular class and the musical, since the school was meant to only be an musical school at first. Next day the school announces the one participating in the musical competition, and of course Hino get's choosen as the only one from the regular class.
Well, that is kinda the bakground (atleast in the anime) and start for everything + adding love scenes and ect ^.~
Btw, here comes some screenshots from the game (taken from gamespots site)
From the few episodes I watched when the anime was new ( maybe 7~12 at most) I felt at that time I had gotten a hold of some of the guys "characters", like their typhical behavior. But then I found out that Yunoki is not the "typhical collected Mr.friendly guy", but that is supposdley a mask hiding his real...well, not fully sure since I,like mentioned too many times already, lacks valuable information about Kiniro, but Yuniko seems kinda Saddistic?!?! XDDD
Just look at this picture below, it is just so evil! He went from typhical, prehaps even boring, to super interesting chara :O
This is also probably because my still new love is "manipulative-character" - Atleast the voice!
For example :
I hate Aizen in Bleach, but when Hayami Sho uses phrases that is super manipulative I can't stop smiling ( maybe I'm saddistic myself, LOL ) The same goes for Ichimaru Gin, Ulquiorra and Grimmjow ect - all Bleach characters,lol
(= Yusa Kouji, Namikawa Daisuke and Suwabe junichi <3 )
Or Hallelujah from Gundam 00, (though, Yoshino is more crazy manipulative as him XD <3)
And since Yuniko is voiced by Kidhio Daisuke, I can't help getting a strong vibe of Kuran Kaname from Vampire Knight = can make you speechless with just a glance <3
Anyway, almost forgot this was about Kiniro, especially the live event ^^;;;
I guess my one and only point with this was = I think I'm finnaly starting to get into Nr.3 of the NeoRomance serie. ( Harukanaru toki no naka de 1-4 + Angelique and Neo Angelique being the other two)
Making it more entertaining when I watch NeoRomance Festa and such X3
Aquadom
Last night I read the first 2 volumes of this manga and in the morning I read the last 2 aswell.
I was looking at myanimelist.net and got irritated because they said it was a Shounen-ai , which I disagree with.
So I decided to add a short review, not with to much information, but just to object to the Shounen-ai part.
http://myanimelist.net/manga/2427/Aquadom
Surely, I agree that the cover makes it seem kinda Shounen-ai'ish, but as I said in my review, it was just two brothers being very close with each other XD
Oh, and if you check out the link, you see that the volume cover is for volume 4 (-the last volume) and one of the guys is the main character, but the other one isn't the brother, but.....well it's a spoiler, so don't read if you don't want to find out:
--The other soul which had reside inside the main characters body since birth- the real prince for the other world. Later they find his real body and the princes's soul is transfered to that one. At first he has long hair, but he cut's it by the last chapter, making him look identical to the main character.---
Plot Summary: Tastumi is a normal boy going to school and living with his strict older brother. Orphaned at a young age, his brother has been both a mother and a father to him. One day, he and his friends are about to rescue a beautiful girl from being harrassed when she beats them up herself. When she sees Tatsumi, she suddenly calls him "Rui".
First of all, this manga may have had elements of shounen-ai, but that was purely a deep brothership and nothingless.
It wasn't as much fantasy as I had hoped, since the other world had a high level of technology and the clothes weren't different from regular clothes.
But it had some interesting factors, such as adding artificial humans and a half human/half beast guy in the story (also very nice drawn).
The art was well done, but I found it lacking on emotions. What was more to my liking was the layout. It really showed that the mangaka knew what she was doing, using the right and different angles without over using any.
It was probably my biggest enjoyment with the manga.
In conclusion; this is a manga for anyone who just wants to read a manga without getting too into it. I can say that the fact that I wasn't expecting anything from it, made it more interesting when some good parts happend.
Oh, and since I couldn't add it with the rewiev before, here is the half human/ half beast guy - Jango ^^
Oh, I almost forgot something important- since I point out that this is the most important thing in the manga all the time...who my favorite character was XDD
hmm, actually, I didn't have anyone,lol, but I guess I was roting for the big brother. I liked how he as a magican of age 12 was handed the soul of the prince and alone travelled to our world. He even gave up his own body, so he could become the main characters big brother. ( He found it by a car accident)
But I thought that the coolest guy in the manga was the evil guy (picture below), I mean just look:
Long hair + eyepatch <3 ^w^.....but still, it was like picking the favorite from a bunch of stuff you had no real interest in, making it seem like you had an interest in, when you in fact didn't...kinda ^^;;;;
