Den-o Fever

Mon, 05 May 2008 02:21:53 GMT

I know it's a bit late now to be obsessed with Den-o but I really am not into masked rider shows ... I prefer 2D to anything 3D. However, Den-o is really different because though it's "drama", it got all the moe elements you usually find in anime ^0^, and boy, I just love all 4 imagin. Normally I like the megane type the best (a.k.a. Urataros)　... but Momotaros and Kintaros are SO STUPID and STUBBORN I think I like these two better (explode). I really love Kintaros kimono outfit (TvT)... Kimono EROI!!!!!!!! The seiyuu cast is also amazing! We've got Seki Toshihiko, Yusa Kouji (nosebleeds), Terasoma, and Suzu! Plus plus MikiShin (but he's still not appeared yet TT). OMG, this show is so stupid it's funny and exciting! I can understand why Den-o is so popular among women in Japan (BL fantasies to infinity)!

Yesterday was Ono Daisuke's birthday! There was a special on DGS (featuring MAMA-D)!!!!! OMG, people go listen to DGS 56! MAMA-D is extremely cute and tennen!!! It's because he's got such a nice mom we've got such a lovely seiyuu as ONO-D!!! Good Job Papa & Mama-Ｄ for making cute cute Ono-D! The D family SAIKOU!!!!

BL Weekend (Simple log)^0^

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 03:34:09 GMT

There was a typhoon in Macau last weekend so I was trapped indoor. As a result, I started tackling my mountain of unread BL novels. I managed to complete 2 bunko (smaller size) and one novel (^0^), plus one manga. All four books have tsundere and pretty strong (smart) uke.

1) 性悪猫~旦那さまシリーズ番外編~ (花丸文庫): 吉田珠姫
This is actually the side story of Yoshida's Danna sama series (the first story in the main series (Danna sama, o te wo douzou) was dramatized ages ago with Suzuoka x Miyatan. Suzuoka-san (T____T)... I heard the CD when he was still alive (around 2004). I remember it very well because I listened to it during my Miyatan boom ^0^. In the CD, I remembered Haruka to be pretty tough (thanks to Miyatan's bijin voice). I didn't like the story at all but I read the synopsis of this side story and I like it. When I look at the illustration, I'm dumbfounded because both characters look much "younger" than they sounded. I think it's the problem of the art...Both Haruka and Ikuya are already in their late 20s but they look like they're high school students ^___^;; Ikuya is slightly better ... Haruka is ...OMG. Anyway, I love ikuya VERY MUCH. He's really wonderful (TvT) but I don't like the story at all =.=.. Actually, the author only writes this story because in the third book in the series, to protect Haruka, Ikuya was used as a substitute and he was raped by several foreign guys (>_<). Ikuya's kinda used to being raped and stuff as he lived like a prostitute since he left home when he was 15. However, when he saw how Haruka was loved by Mochizuki, he started to realize the difference between him and Haruka and that's really saddening. i really love Ikuya and I'm glad he found true love but the process' so ridiculous I feel it's a complete waste of such a nice character (cries).

2)　Beauty & Ghost by Umino Sachi
I'm writing a more in-depth review about this novel as it became (all of a sudden) one of the best BL comedies I've ever read (^0^). This story is very short (only 125 pages and bunko!) but the story is fantastic. Although it's named "beauty and ghost", it's salaryman romance and no "real" ghost at all! The confession is probably one of the most interesting and innovative among all the BL novels I've read ^^. Extremely highly recommended! Especially if you like hetare seme (probably one of the most hetare in BL history) and tsundere megane uke.

3) 意地っ張りたちの都合 by Kanoe Nagisa
This book reminds me of freezing eye because the uke's so cold (tsun tsun) in the beginning but gradually melts down as the story progresses and begins to show some human emotions (^_^;;). I'm also planning on writing a review (but after I'm done with beauty and ghost) so I'm not going to leak too much info about this book. Basically it's the son of a second hand book shop x young and cold assistant professor. The interactions between seme and uke are nice and the side "couple" is really sad (T_T). Luckily, the main story is slightly comic so it balances the atmosphere. I

4) No Color by Natsume Isaku
D*mn, I think Natsume sensei is really a genius when it comes to tsundere uke (^0^). She's got a very nice grasp of "tsundere". Her artwork is also clean and easy to follow and Dear+ means rather low H, ^_^;; Suits her style.

P.S. I actually read a pile of explicit manga too but only for H (geh) ... skip all the stories, hahaha so I'm not going to log them, fu fu fu.

Code Geass TV Ratings...

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 04:57:39 GMT

Week 1: 3.0%
Week 2: 2.6% !?
Apparently Sunday 17:00 is a terrible time for Code Geass to be shown. Poor MBS/TBS marketing strategy T_T. Plus I feel the quality has slightly lowered (compared to season 1).

Macross F jumped from 1.1% to 2.7%! Well first week was low because people already watched episode back in December so the second episode's rating is closer to the truth. Plus the second episode's early fighting scene is beautiful! D*mn it, I'm thinking of buying PS3 & BD version of Macross DVD, haha. Can't get enough of the fighting scenes (T_T). One thing that's troubling me... Macross is VERY　STRAIGHT, two girls fighting for one guy type of anime but why do I feel Lanka-chan and Sheryl look better together without Aruto and Aruto looks so much better with either Konishi or Kamiyan's chara? I must be so poisoned I can't stand straight pairings now (T_T). Yaoi and yuri dominates my life (>_<)...

Nabari no Ou looks good though the animation reminds me of Loveless (probably same character designer)??? I watched it on nico nico and because of the resolution problem, the limbs seem very thin =o=! Sensei is love!!!! I also love Hino bouchama's chara, he he.

Real Rode

Thu, 10 Apr 2008 02:49:00 GMT

All I want to say is Olympics is a time for peace, for atheletes to enjoy the outcome of their hard training, for them to represent their country and to strive for glory. Olympics is when people forget about daily woes and come home to cheer for their countries' atheletes, to laugh for them when they win and to encourage them when they lose.

Olympics is a beautiful game.
It shouldn't be tainted with political arguments.
People have more than over a thousand days in four years to talk about politics.
Why don't they just give thirty days out for peace and sports?
Those atheletes passing the torch should not be attacked.
They have the right to enjoy passing the torch that represents peace and the Olympic spirit.

Olympics doesn't belong to any country, and it shouldn't be because it's an INTERNATIONAL event.

The attitude of those boycotting the Olympics is like a mother saying to her child:
"I won't come to your graduation ceremony unless you behave (or do what I hope you will do)!"
Geh...imagine your mom saying that to you!!!!
What about the feelings of the child who have been working so hard just to graduate an not have the parents sharing their joy!
What about the school, teachers, who have been working hard to make the graduation ceremony a successful event.

Whatever the problem between the mother and child, it should be solved at home! The graduation ceremony shouldn't be used as a tool to force the child to comply. That's what I see as freedom and respect for human right.

I'm still wondering what anime to watch this season...or which ones to watch first. Any recommendations? S.A.'s casting is ... so-so...especially when you compare to the drama CD version. I like Masumin more, haha. The artwork is also... Vampire Knight is okay but I don't know why I don't really like the story. I only like the twins, hahaha.

P.S. Cast for Real Rode (PS2 Dating/RPG Adventure)
アルヴァンド…武内健 (Takeuchi Ken, the white prince)
ラクロ…中井和哉 (Nakai Kazuya, his servant)
ディセ…神谷浩史 (Kamiya Hiroshi, black prince)
キース…緑川光 (Midorikawa Hikaru, his follower in name)
ルキア…岸尾だいすけ (Kishio Daisuke, bishop)
シン…立花慎之介 (Tachibana Shinsuke, hunter)
ソマリ…代永翼 (Yonaga Tsubasa, the villager)
ワタル…宮野真守 (Miyano Mamoru, the theif)
ナオヤ…近藤隆 (Kondou Takashi, the boyfriend)
Official site: http://www.realrode.com/

By the producer and illustrator of Love Revolution! <- the diet game vvvvv I'm looking forward to this, especially when Ken-chan and Kamiyan are together in the same game!!!!! Along with Kondou Hibari Takashi and Midorin and Nakai and Mamo etc.

Biological passport (laugh)

Wed, 09 Apr 2008 09:15:31 GMT

My passport expired!!! I'm now applying for a new passport and realize that the new passport has a microchip that's cool for digital facial recognition. The good news is I don't need a visa if I just want to travel to the States but the bad news is that it only lasts for 5 years (which means I have to chuck out about $100US to get a passport every 5 years (>.<). Anyway, the interesting part about this passport is that my dad told me it's a "biological passport" ^_______________^;; I think my dad mistook biographic passport with biological passport (^_^);; So I thought it would be those kind that include your DNA or other biological data *O*... I was shocked because that's outright violation of human rights! Luckily, that's not the case ^_^. I hope I get my passport in time for my travel ...pray.

Back to anime, watched Macross F, Code Geass R2, and Monochrome Factor only as I'm crazily busy lately. Macross F is love!!!!!!!! The songs are nice! Very nice! Code Geass R2...I'm shocked at the TV ratings in Japan. 3%...3%...3%!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not surprised though because Geass is not the kind of anime you should show at 5:00p.m. on Sunday T___T. It's the fault of the producers. But then to be honest, the first episode isn't THAT great. It certainly didn't have the impact as the first episode in the first season. I am looking forward to the new characters. Midorikawa & Hoshi *v*...love love. There's also Monochrome Factor.... >_<...complete rape of the original work!!!! Kamiyan is EXTREMELY CUTE though and I love Saiga and Suwabe and ... of course ONOD!!!!!!!!!!! So I'll probably keep watching...PUSH myself to watching vvvvvvvv I still have a few new anime to check out.

P.S. The Opening of To Love ru (Trouble) is very James Bond... in terms of the location of the staff credits (wicked laugh). Just realize recently I haven't had enough time for hentai (T_T)...but then I can't play hentai when my parents are at home ... kinda weird.

Tokushu Sentouin Ikusei Kikan Hero Academy J

Thu, 03 Apr 2008 05:02:07 GMT

特殊戦闘員育成機関ヒーローアカデミーＪ

Author: Nocturne Records

Format: Non-BL CD

H-level: None

Ratings:

Plot: 4/5

Artwork: 4/5

Characterization: 5/5

Overall: 4/5

Been a very long while since I have written a drama review I feel (sweat). Recently been so addicted to radio shows I seldom listen to drama (T.T). Anyway, this CD is very funny because the majority of seiyuu here (except Hamada san) are DO---S, haha. Unfortunately they didn't excel their S power in the freetalk (T_T). Mamoru-kun [ the guy with the red tie in the cover pic] (CV: Suzumura Kenichi) is a hero otaku. He loves to watch all those hero shows, that's because when he was young, he was bullied by some older students. Just when they were about to take his money, a hero appeared and rescued him. Since then he admired heroes and became a hero otaku. He waited till he's old enough to apply for the Hero Academy and the first story is about the examination for admittance. Also at the examination are four other candidates: Shin [the guy with glasses] (CV: Yusa Kouji), Hitoshi [the guy with the yellow T-shirt inside] (CV: Miyata Kouki), Yuukichi [the guy with the pink teddy] (CV: Hamada Kenji), and Okatoumachi-kun [the guy with silver hair] (CV: Kamiya Hiroshi).

While waiting for the examination, Mamoru (a.k.a. Mamo-kun) got to know the other candidates in the room. All of a sudden, some bad guys popped up from nowhere and threatened to destroy the Hero Academy. During the fight, Mamo-kun got to know the "characteristics" of the other classmates. Shin appears to be smart and cool but he's really very M and enjoys being beaten up and punished (sweat). He is strong but he fights to get himself beaten (shock). Then there is Hitoshi-kun who's really the son of a yakuza leader and is going to take over the yakuza group later on. Yuukichi looks pretty strong with all those muscles but he really admires those "miracle girls" and he loves baking muffins (laugh), carrying honey and maple sauce with him. Finally, Okatoumachi-kun is scared of people and cries all the time (sweat). While they're fighting the baddies, one of the baddie found Okatoumachi in hiding and took him as hostage. They then tied up the other four and took Okatoumachi along with them (no BL fantasies people vv). Mamoru-kun then heard Okatoumachi scream (still no BL-fantasies people) and while he was trying to do his best to break the cord that's binding his hand, he found both Yuukichi and Shin already broke free! Anyway, they ended up using Okatoumachi's sleeping pills to drug the enemy and all five pass the test.

The second story is about their first lesson at hero academy, i.e. to learn to say their name powerfully. Okatoumachi is still hiding in the locker when the hero instructor asked him to say his name powerfully. Mamo-kun though everyone came to the academy because they wanted to become hero and accidentally said words that seemingly (?) hurt Okatoumachi. Mamo-kun then learned that actually his classmates had other "purposes" for attending the academy and that he shouldn't look down on others' intentions. The group then went to Okatoumachi's house to look for him. When they overheard him writing and crying, they thought he was going to commit suicide \(^0^)/ so they broke into the room. Turns out Okatoumachi was just practicing and jotting down lecture notes, haha. Thanks to the chaos, Okatoumachi managed to speak in a louder voice. All's well that ends well...or maybe not yet (^_^;;).

Review
I find this CD to be quite funny and I like all the characters as well as Suzumura's otaku talk. The story tempo is okay but the storyline is a bit too predictable so that's really nothing new to it. The most interesting character is Yusa's Shin. Do-M....hahaha, to turn pain into pleasure, he sure is the expert. I love the part where he purposely fails to say his name loudly just so the instructor can scold him...(sweat). Most of the characters are likable and Hamada-san is cute XDDD. Mahou shoujo, yeah! My only regret is that Kamiyan's character is REALLY ANNOYING　(=x=). I can't stand him whenever he opens his mouth ... not even with Kamiyan's voice (T_T). I hope he's going to mature and become a more likable character as the series progresses.

Another shock is the freetalk...OMG... why don't Miyatan and Yusa ~~bully~~ ~~HamaKen~~ be the S character they usually are? Remember how they bullied Midorikawa-san in the BLCD freetalk forcing the poor Midorikawa san to act Kangaroo? Ahh... I'm a bit disappointed but overall it's very nice atmosphere.

Bottomline

I highly recommend this CD if you're a hero otaku or Suzumura fan because you'll be so satisfied plus the theme song is also sung by Suzumura. I really enjoy Yusa's character and I want to hear more of him. Still, I think the story is a bit too thin for a whopping 4,200 yen (and more if you consdier shipping) and I definitely won't recommend for fellow Kamiyan fans ="=. Not only is he recorded separately, I feel he speaks less than his SP (guard) and instructor. >_<...

Tsumi no shitone mo nureru yoru

罪の褥も濡れる夜

This is the 4th installment of the Seikanji Series featuring Fukushumi ojiisan and Fuyuki (the papa). I really love Fuyuki papa and also Fukushumi ojiisan and I'm definitely buying this CD... but ... but...it's a 3CD set and...and... 8190 yen =o=....SHOCK! When the U.S. dollar is so weak... this is going to cost more than it seems (T_T).... this summer I'll be BROKE....

I finally assembled the whole set of Hachikuro DVD ^0` ...takes time (because it's expensive) but I feel it's worth it. Everytime I watch this series, the feeling of youth always returns. Ahhh... it's the series that makes me fall in love with Kamiyan anyway. This summer Natsume Yuujinchou is going to be animated. The PV at TAF is AMAZING! I mean if they keep this quality, it'll be another "classic" like Hachikuro. Unlike Hachikuro though, there's no HEROINE in Natsume Yuujinchou's manga. Well, actually Natsume sorta plays the heroine role, hee hee. Actually there's no "romance" in Natsume Yuujinchou and therefore no heroine but the relationship between Natori and Natsume ... and then Nyankosensei and Natsume are very "suspicious". In fact Natori and Natsume is sorta like an official couple (to me) fuu fuu fuu. But of course I cheer for Nyankosensei and Natsume all the way (because it's Inoue Kazuhiko sama's voice and so even if he's got a cute catty experience, and a kakkoi beastly appearance, he's still seme to me, ho ho ho).

Next season is Macross F, Code Geass R2, Monochrome Factor and Toshokan Sensou (I wonder how many novels they're going to cover with just one season...worried). Summer is Natsume Yuujinchou and Antique Bakery. I feel this year (2008) is going to be awesome! Now, just let me know when's the next season of Slayers going to be out and I'll be complete, haha. I want SLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MikiShin wo Aishiteiru !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 04:45:14 GMT

I always like MikiShin ... I like his acting and voice but recently Gundam 00 and Omi & Jiei series (BL) makes me CRAZY over MikiShin, haha. GYAAAAA... But then MikiShin seems to have stopped singing for a while and I was a little upset but but...

MIKISHIN SINGS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!

Plus his Double Action Wing Form ... GETS GETS GETS

2nd place on ORICON!!!

OMG...OMG...OMG...
Denou & Gundam 00's popularity is TO BE FEARED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Togainu no Chi

Wed, 26 Mar 2008 14:21:35 GMT

sukiyakiya asked about the Togainu in Comic Sylph and since it came with a plastic holder, i scanned it for people who're thinking of buying the new version of Togainu manga (due this month) with artwork by Yamamoto Kana. B's log comics also has a version of Togainu manga (by Chiyayama Chisuguru). You can compare the artwork by the two artists (below cut). Yamamoto Kana is the assistant of naked Ape (Switch and Dolls) so her style suits the atmosphere of Togainu...but I'm not so sure about her story. The few pages in this volume aren't enough to judge.

The top art is by Chiyayama Chisuguru.

The bottom art is by Yamamoto Kana

I personally prefer the art of Yamamoto Kana ^_^;;

Of course, the best is the original ^v^ by Tatana Kana.

You can also grab a larger version(Yamamato Kana's version) HERE.

P.S. I also uploaded a short track from Sylph's bonus CD HERE.
Cast: Yusa Kouji, Miyano Mamoru, Taniyama Kishow

Comic Sylph Vol. 6

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 15:10:20 GMT

ｷﾀ━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━ !!!!!
This magazine's sold out everywhere! I'm glad I preordered early (TvT)...

Hatano & Miyatan's interview + Neoromance

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 03:07:51 GMT

I scanned the portion of Pickup Voice 6 with Hatano & Miyatan as well as the Neoromance bit.

Pick Up Voice 6

Tue, 04 Mar 2008 03:43:08 GMT

So I went to HK last Saturday with my friend and bought PIck Up Voice 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I scanned the part with Kamiyan (technically the Zetsubou Sensei interview so Ai-chan's also there) HERE. If you want other pics (besides those with Kamiyan), you can let me know and I'll try to scan them for you.

This is the back cover of the magazine.

Problem I have with this magazine is that... the make up is a bit over the top ... geh. Mke up on women is fine with me but on men ... awawa... I don't like that so much. Still, the megane pic is cool, haha. .... hmmmm.... or should I say I buy just because of that megane shot (megane fetish, yeah).

Oh, and I listened to DGS 47.. Hibiki (the manga) features all DG5! Nice! I wonder what Sugita and Nikumura and Angen looks like, haha ... especially Nikumura... recently he seems to have purged his Viruta's image and looks closer to Nadely.

Aside from getting the magazines, in HK we went shopping for clothes. Frankly, I don't like shopping for clothes too much, rather save the money for HiroC, hee hee ... but then my friend seems happy because she wants to help me improve my image. She's sweet...but I suppose a normal girl is hard to understand otaku's psychology(?)... haha. I've been so absorbed in the otaku world I sometimes find it hard to communicate with RLF who don't fangirl. They talk about clothes, money, and men ... topics which I think are important for me but somehow feel distant. Money ... is closer (I need to eat and live) but men ...hmmm... when the gender ratio is completely out of balance, even good, cute girls (like my friends) find it hard to meet men... save hard boiled otaku like myself, haha.

Pick up voice 6

Thu, 28 Feb 2008 08:40:15 GMT

    Damn, megane HiroC ... haha... which means I have to buy ANOTHER magazine. Luckly I'm going to HK this Saturday but not sure if it's already released...otherwise, I'll have to go again but that pic ... nosebleeds.   I love Kamiyan with glasses on ... VERY VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!!!

Oshamoku: CHOCO COUNT THIS YEAR: 502!!!!! 502!!! 502!!! WOW... is this the Kamiyan I know o_O? I mean why is he suddenly SO popular? But then the recent boom won't last long... a year maybe but I don't think it'll last too long. Gundam effect, hahaha.

Random notes:
1. Seems like Antique bakery will be animated in Summer.   感想: 何でいまさら?　最近ボーイズラブアニメ流行かな...
2. Slayers new season. Cast will be the same . A new season for Slayers? I'm a bit worried about the cast because they've all AGED and the voice might be changed...but then Midorin ... ahhh... I am afraid i'll fangirl over Midorin as I used to ten years ago, haha.
3. Top Secret - cast changed from Kishow to Seki...hmm... frankly I don't think Seki's voice suitable for bishounen anymore. He's lost the clarity in the voice ... I prefer Kishow but the latter is too busy with his music business he's no time to cater for his seiyuu job???? What a pity.   I miss Kisow in anime (I don't really like his songs but I like his acting).
4. Someone on niconico put up a Shinji medley ... I LOVE SHINJI (from fate/stay night), hahaha...love the Sakura route. Ahh..maybe I should go play F/S night tonight, he he he.

Kotonoha no hana

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 04:55:24 GMT

The CD's out and the Japanese reviews seem quite favorable. Personally, I find the novel a bit overwhelming because it's PAINFUL (T___T). It's not SM... there's no blood, no violence but it really is scary because you see how a supposedly happy man's life is ruined because he can hear the thoughts of other people. The fact that Sunahara is writing it makes it even more painful. It really dragged my mood down --- the novel --- and I suppose the drama won't be any better. Ahhh... I'm not sure if I dare to listen to this without feeling melancholic afterwards ... but then it's a brilliant novel ... probably more touching than her host club series and innocence ... or maybe on the same level as Innocence. it would be lovely if Innocence also gets dramatized but that'll be hard because it's ages ago ... but that's a very nice story TvT... makes you want to cry too ... ahhh.... this makes me want to read Innocence all over again, haha.

Anyway, I'm trying to get the exchange CD from ATIS and so I have to wait for the last chapter of Jiei and Omi series to be released before I have access to Kotonoha no hana... hahaha.

P.S. Many of my CDs are not even opened, because I already downloaded and only buy to support Kamiyan, hahaha. What a waste ... they just sleep in my drawer. However, if I don't buy and just download, I feel guilty .... TvT...

Mamo...why do you always have to...

Fri, 22 Feb 2008 07:22:34 GMT

TAKE AWAY

MIDORIKAWA'S

ROLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the new casting for Fushigi Yuugi.
I'm sure most of you know FY, one of THE BEST SHOUJO manga in the 90s.
And of course you all know Midorikawa & Koyasu played tamahome and hotohori...
And Seki played Kouji and bam...FY was a mega success ... at least for me.
There's a game version coming out in May and they've got a new cast for it.
Now Mamo plays Tamahome and Konitan plays hotohori while Miyatan plays Kouji.

鬼宿　関俊彦→緑川光→宮野真守 .....
星宿　松本保典→子安武人→小西克幸
柳宿　高山みなみ→坂本千夏→皆川純子
翼宿　矢尾一樹→林延年→鳥海浩輔
軫宿　小杉十郎太→石井康嗣→三宅健太
井宿　山口勝平→関智一→宮田幸季
張宿　折笠愛→川上とも子→木村亜希子

Hmmm.... hmmm.... hmmm...

NANYA WANTS TO CRY

I know it's already a decade and we need NEW BLOOD.... Mamo did a good job with Tamaki and in terms of Tamaki, i've no problem with him taking over Midorikawa. However Tamahome is very different. He's the cool type ... which I don't think Mamo is good at... not yet. Maybe in a few years but now I think he's not ready for Tamahome. Same goes for Konitan replacing Koyasu...no offence but I think Koyasu's voice sounds younger than Konitan ... and certainly A LOT MORE ROYAL.... after all Hotohori is of royal descend. Seki...well I think we can't help it because he's in a real life drama in Spring so he has no time to reprise his role... still, this whole cast is QUITE unacceptable, especially Miyano and Konitan ... gimme back Midorikawa & Koyasu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miscast T_T

Thu, 21 Feb 2008 04:59:10 GMT

吸血鬼と愉快な仲間たち
Kyouski to yukai na nakama tachi

アル　(Aru)　平川大輔
暁　　(Akira)　緑川光　
忽滑谷(Nukariya)　森川智之
津野 (Tsuno)　　遊佐浩二
柳川　(Yanagawa)　千葉進歩

This is the second comedy (?) by Konohara Narise that's going to be dramatized. Her first was "Don't Worry Mama". Seems like Konohara only allows her comedies to be dramatized (^_^;;). Anyway, all I want to say is .... SOME　MISCAST　(T_T).   Rather than miscast I think it's probably because I love the novel so much I think it's a bit hard to accept this cast.

This book was my top second last year (I was struggling between this one and Kimi wo koroshita yoru) because both were SOOOO GOOOD but then I think in the end, my love for Yakou sensei wins, haha.   Anyway, the novel is a bit "painful" to read...actually VERY PAINFUL even though it's comedy ^_^;; There's no ERO in the first book, not even the second so for those who're looking for ero, it's not a good choice.

Back to the cast, I think Akira is okay. Midorikawa is perfect for tsundere like Akira so I have no problem with that. Nukariya@Mori Mori is probably okay. It's hard to imagine Nukariya because he's got this ... I dunno ... warmth and cold at the same time. Tsuno@Yusa is definitely not what I have in mind...especially after reading the second book because Tsuno is not a "S" and Yusa is too S to be Tsuno, haha. Then Yanagawa@Chiba. Pretty good choice I think though I prefer Toriumi.

You can see I'm satisfied with 80% of the cast so why do I still call this a miscast? That's because HIRA-CHAN is VERY FAR from my image of Aru and Aru is 80% of this book!!!!!　Aru is EXTREMELY　HARD to play I know because he's bat in the day and vampire at night and also a foreigner. Hira-chan to me is Orlando Bloom and I just can't put Orland Bloom and Aru together ... it'll make me cry T_____T. I know it's stupid but I was hoping Ono-kun would be Aru and I was happy to see Ono's name in the casting (the wrong one) but it seems sensei mixed up Midorikawa's voice with Ono-kun T____T.   Ahhhhhh....OnoD would be a perfect ...P.E.R.F.E.C.T. Aru!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was reading the whole book with his voice and I saw his name on the initial list.... why take him offfffffffffffffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GIMME BACK ONOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

... I'll copy back the review of the first novel this weekend and probably whip up the review for the second book as well. I just LOVE this series,,, hahha... Aru & Akira bansai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So you bet I'll skip the drama CD altogether because I already have the perfect casting in my mind, hahaha.

New Year ...AGAIN ^_^;;

Tue, 12 Feb 2008 03:37:55 GMT

It's the first time I spend Chinese New Year with my family in 11 years! Didn't realize It's been so long. Those family members whom i only see during Chinese New Year have changed so much I can't recognize them (^_^;;). Anyway, I totally spent Chinese New Year on Dear Girl Stories and Sayonara Zetsubou Housou (x_X).. I also listened to some OnoD's radio shows like Comuchacha (laughs) and Anispa. Hmmm.... I think all of them are nice but DGS is the best, haha. Dunno why but neither HiroC nor OnoD shines as much when they're paired up with other personality as when they're paired up in DGS. Probably outside of DGS they don't shine as much as well. OnoD is practically a pretty sensible person outside DGS ... so sensible it feels strange, haha. He's actually pretty S and very intelligent (outside DGS) so ...I suppose the "OnoD" in DGS is what attracts me, laugh. As for Zetsubou Housou, I like how they tease Daichu ...Mizushima, haha. Mizushima is ...pretty interesting character. He is the "bullied" type though in freetalk, rather than the one bullying. In one BLCD.. forgot the name already (where he's a foreign student going to the Kishio & Kamiyan's school (Ono & Nikumura are Kishio's father), ...anyway in that freetalk, OnoD & Nikumura's freedom really annoyed Mizushima and that's fun. D*mn, recently, I feel I only listen to BLCD for the freetalk (^_^;;;)....

P.S. Read reports about Dear My ~~Mazo~~ Mom's event. HiroC danced (*O*).... Been his fan for 3 years now but never saw him dance before!!!
DVD's out in May...even if I have to fly to Japan to get the DVD, I will. It maybe ONCE IN A LIFETIME experience, hahaha.

My ipod database is corrupted and ... and ... I lost all the songs on the ipod. Using Yamipod, I recovered the songs but...but... all the playlists are gone and the labels are gone too. I have 3,250 songs on the ipod...HOW ON EARTH AM I GOING TO RELABEL THEM ALL (>_<)....naturally I don't have a copy on my hard drive so...I'm done.

Mori Mori's black hair.

Fri, 25 Jan 2008 04:08:45 GMT

I admit last year I seldom denoted time for seiyuu related info so when I'm trying to catch up in 2008, I'm shocked TO DEATH by Mori mori's black hair. My last impression of Morimori ... sadly *ahem* was from Pastel Collection's event in 2006 ^_^;; ... actually I used to check out Morimori's radio @webpastel so then I could see his pic weekly. Unfortunately, the WICKED Intercommunications ended the radio ~~and so took away my weekly Friday Night Entertainment (cries)~~.

MORI MORI's RADIO IS BACK!!!!!!!!!

Thank you very much Abe san (>v<)!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, I loved Mori Mori's navigation (^0^)/
Plus the first CD from Abe san's new label is ...is.. GERALD & JACK!!!!!!!!
I love Gerald & Jack A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What great news, he he he.

Anyway, I accidentally saw a picture of the black hair MoriMori from a Chinese forum and guess what... I can't believe my eyes... Since when has Morimori become SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Handsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *ahem* ... black hair DEFINITELY suits him more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus he's apparently been on diet and so ... so ...ahhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't believe there's a day I'm fangirling over the LOOKS of Morimori...I used to think I only fancy his voice (T_T)... I also want to listen to the conclusion of G neko. I still can't believe Morimori hasn't done one "proper BLCD..aka with H" with HiroC yet (>_<)....

P.S. DG5 is SUPER萌え！！！ Nakamura... how long have you and Sugita been secretly d--ting !? I think this pair is HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS. Normally, seiyuu "act" as if they're really ayashi ... like HiroC & OnoD but Nakamura & Sugita's dialogues are beyond "acting" *ahem*, plus Angen ... Yasumoto-kun's fuudanshi blog (*^_^*)...D*MN, I'm not stepping into the NAMA ZONE (TvT).

Yahoo, a NEW review from me in a very long time, haha. Been busy with work last year and so haven't written any review. This story is a perfect example of oyaji seme x tsundere uke (゜U ゜), haha...just what I love the best. Shimano is the son of the firm owner and is working inside the firm to gain experience. He is smart, handsome, and rich but he actually works hard (so it's not the fool who's just hanging around). Everyone respects him in the company but not Kurokawa, his superior, who seems to be pouring things for him to do. This Kurokawa is a funny guy because though he is very good at his job, in private he is messy and behaves like an old man occasionally. One night after meeting with the client, Shimano missed the last train and Kurokawa invited (more like forced though) Shimano to his small and filthy apartment. Shimano complained about being cold and so Kurokawa hugged him as if he were a pillow ^_^;;. That probably was the first time when Shimano began to have feelings for Kurokawa (because the latter looked very lonely). Kurokawa actually got married but divorced two years ago. Story becomes quite generic afterwards ... Shimano was refused by a client and Kurokawa was there when he was depressed and then he fell in love but felt troubled because of love. Then came Kurokawa's ex-wife who's pretty, extremely intelligent, and looked good with Kurokawa. Of course, it's a happy end ...at least at the end of the first volume but Shimano was actually surprised to find that Kurokawa knew him for a long time...long before he started working in the firm...

Review
From the synopsis you can see the main storyline is pretty flat and there's not much going on really. The whole plot is highly predictable so it's not really good for those who're looking for excitement. HOWEVER, the details in this book are really nice and I love the two characters (>v<). Those who are familiar with my reviews should know I'm a big fan of Yakou Hana sensei because I like the seme loving the uke MORE than the uke loving the seme and in most of her stories, the seme loves the uke more...or so it seems ^_^;;. In this book, it's quite apparent that Kurokawa has fallen in love (if not, at least been attracted) by Shimano for A LONG TIME. Even at present, although a large part of the story is told from Shimano's point of view, you can still figure just how DEEPLY Kurokawa loves Shimano. That I like VERY MUCH, hehe. Another crucial factor is the TEMPO of the ERO ^_^;;. The part I like the best is when Shimano is drunk and suddenly becomes VERY AGGRESSIVE. The UNCONSCIOUS SEDUCTION (if I can phrase it this way) is brilliant!!!! I just love it. The way Natsume sensei intertwined the monologues with the scenes' also wonderful! It balances the comic moments with the serious moments and also touches your heart. Finally, the artwork is also nice, not superb but suits the mood of the story. Shimano's BLUSH is also VERY CUTE!!!

Bottomline
This is really suitable for those who feel sick and tired of work and want a simple manga to relax. There's a little H but like all Dear+ stories (with the exception of Ze...probably), the ERO is clean and not hard core at all. The story is light and merry in general but there are moments which can make you feel touched and romantic. Awesome! I love this story very much !!! I'm now going to check out the second volume as well as other works by Natsume sensei, ho ho ho.
