The Entertainment News 2017 Edition Issue #22

YYYYYYAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

As you might have heard (lol), I'm free. Unemployed, but free. (no pun intended) But hey, at least I got all the time to (Audience: Do up all these posts?) sleep? *laughs* Okay I've slept enough let's get through the stuff I need to enjoy for this week.


アニメ Alice to Zouroku
frazzle [ˈfraz(ə)l]; cause to shrivel up with burning. (If you need the definition, here you go haha)
The new episode (#AliceToZouroku07) talks about the twins; remember those two who taught Sana-chan everything? Besides the fact that they got settled down after the incident, they also felt a sense of guilt. A sense of loss, for having taught Sana-chan everything despite their background before they were in the facility. Then again, Sana-chan has grown matured enough to forgive the two of them, so I guess... But still, many things got mentioned this episode. Ignoring the awesome stuff that is Ichijou-san again (hahaha MVP liao this woman), Sana-chan feels unwell. Uncomfortable, for some reason. And as Sanae-chan has mentioned, she is starting to understand the things around her. Which, by the way for us, is the things called life. I may feel somehow parallel to her too when she says math is too easy but other emotional, unpredictable things she cannot get. Because that's probably me when I was young too, being good at logical stuff and sucking at the rest. Regardless, this has given us somewhat a hint of what may come next (we don't need that spinoff manga to show us schoolgirl Sana, really), and I'm still waiting for that cliffhanger somehow. Well, better not let our guard down; this show has given us a lot to think about. A comeback, perhaps? But honestly saying, I'm enjoying the lack of action thus far. Okay, there's Ichijou, but... *laughs*
Me when my mom wants me to have lunch with her friends whom I don't know lol
P.S. MVP I don't want to choose. The twins had a lot for me to think about, so I say everyone then. Well, everyone female. Sorry, Zouroku. Maybe next episode haha
P.P.S. You can make your own profile icon with an overlay of "Dreams of Alice" from the official website! No, I'm not joking. I just noticed my face is too big that the thing will block me so I didn't do it lol

アニメ Tsuki ga Kirei
And this is what I call a date! Okay, the area of effect is big, but still.
The new episode (#TsukiGaKirei07) talks about an amusement park trip, or shall I say, an event deliberately to settle things straight. Let's not talk about what happened, but suffice it to say Koutarou made it clear. Directed at Hira-kun, for starters. And indirecly at Chinatsu and the rest of the group, of course. Needless to say their secret is let out, but then again they got the rest of the day together. Chinatsu was probably more assertive in getting Koutarou to be more informal to her in name at least, but I guess it didn't work on that blockhead haha. Then again, when Koutarou has balls he really does it, like letting the cat out of the bag and stuff. Still, as mentioned earlier, to settle things here is actually vitally important, even though the aftereffect now is that the whole class will know. No really Roman, we don't need an excuse to get lost together haha. On a side note, Akanecchi will no doubt say sorry to her friend, and Hira-kun is right to not be... feeling anything for Chinatsu's arrangement. His infatuation will always stay as so, it seems.
To not spoil you of the good stuff at the second half haha
"Don't take it too hard, Koutarou" I bet he is lol
P.S. MVP the couple of course. But then again can we just have a show where it's all dates? Or kisses? Or kids interrupting kisses? Haha when are they going to make out
P.P.S. Yes I have to talk about the short stories at the end. Let's see... Sakura's fantasies are like that laugh from Nagahara at the end (lol) and Ryouko-sensei is real popular. Among everyone, it seems. Hey, you can't beat her you follow her, as they say.

アニメ Eromanga-sensei
Hey my sensor just detected a tsundere, ladies and gentlemen. Very affirmative signal coming from Sagiri-chan. No mistakes about it. Detection time stamp around when target mentioned "It's not like I asked because I was interested or anything" haha (And that's how you do smart phrase detection people. I'm an engineer lol)
The new episode (#EromangaSensei08) talks about more of the couple, and specifically, what happened after the heck of a confession from Muramasa and the competition result. Then again, all is well, so I shouldn't talk too much about that. The authors hung out for a party at Masamune's place, and it went out well I suppose. All in all, a peaceful episode. Even the ending theme song this episode seem to suggest that. Well, I'll take it, peaceful and everything. I can't take eroticism every other episode anyway haha Elf-sensei is pushing it too much lol
Highlight of the episode, literally.
Yes, this is a cameo of Kuroneko from the author's previous work "Oreimo",
and voiced by Kana-chan herself. Brings back memories already.
P.S. The other author no one cares this week is voiced by none other than Nakamura Yuuichi. Very familiar, isn't it? I thought so too.

アニメ Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2
Hell yeah if it's any kind of hell, even if it's mental hell. You two jerks deserve it for ending many human family lines, that's for sure.
The new episode (#AttackOnTitan34) (two more this season) talks about... talking. Among the human titans. Hey, it's not like they get to do it as seen from their own circumstances, surrounded by titans and injured or whatnot. Still, there isn't much Eren is able to get out of the two considering his temperament, but Ymir. She's using her brain. Then again, she seems to know more about the identities of the monkey-like Titan who is causing trouble, and is at this point pretty much blackmailed by Reiner on Christa's safety. Damn, if I don't give any sh*t about drama, but that was some development to say the least. The others are going to reach by sunset, so fights are going to be inevitable. But suddenly it's going to be Eren against three titans already, so that doesn't sound like good news. Interestingly, it also sets plot for a couple more outcomes from this season concerning Ymir I suppose, but that we shall see. Expect more action next episode; this one is real boring I swear.
As everything is too weird to show, let's see some horse formation!
Damn, this looks cool lol
P.S. Turns out there's an hour before the rest come in, so maybe these four will have to fight it out, I guess. That's next episode apparently. Okay, maybe not fight; the two are planning to run already.


漫画 Dagashi Kashi
The new chapter (61) talks about the soft glider, and if you hadn't played one of these before OR you didn't have a childhood (lol) it's like paper planes, but these are foam ones, fly much further easily and are definitely more durable. I haven't heard of the slingshot version of it before (I guess I wasn't old/young enough), but seeing Tou-kun screw up is a joy haha
Here is an example of Tou-kun hitting it in his face
Probably also me the first time I threw one of those things haha

漫画 A Channel
Lol it took me half the chapter to notice it was a flashback haha. The omake chapter (94.5) talks about Yuuko taking care of her sister Keiko (thus the nickname "Kei") back then when they are younger, and Yuuko wanting to make her sis some food. Yeah, I thought it was the sister being bad at cooking, but turns out we're on the journey to seeing Yuuko learn how to make good food, considering she doesn't know anything about it back then. And yes, it's not the usual 4-koma format, which is always fresh considering this is more immersive in some sense, without that much jokes.
If anyone can figure out why this is the case please do tell haha
Man, kid Yuuko isn't good at cooking


音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
As mentioned last week, this week welcomes a whole lot of releases from this season's Anime theme songs. TrySail's new single is pretty good I guess, and I mean good enough to be on my shelf. Well, it's the B-side as usual anyway, but I'll talk about that next week, yes? Review soon. Touyama Nao's 2nd single is quite okay, considering it's heavily tied to Anime and we know who writes the songs (I'll talk more if I heard of the third track that is the B-side) (yesh it's a double A-side), so... ORESAMA's new single is turning out pretty well, but thank goodness it wasn't enough for me to give all three songs, just two. Actually with some more brainwashing I probably can give, but no I didn't haha. toi toy toi's new single is... I mean, I just took the topic song, so I won't talk more about it. Also yeah, there's Shinsei Kamatte-chan's latest single. But we don't talk about that at all. I mean, did you even watch the live video?

And in case you want to correct me from last week, yes Aki-chan's single is next week. I know. It took about... a day after last week's post to notice that haha actually it's like when I didn't receive an email of my order on last Tuesday lol

Before we talk about next week, let's talk about... two weeks ago? Sambomaster's new album is around but I haven't got the time to review it, so that's next week. Meanwhile, Komatsu Mikako's new album is up for grabs, with me giving songs here and there. But that's it. Here, and there. Not any more.

Next week (finally) welcomes Aki-chan's new single which I'll be ready to do a review for (it'll not be with TrySail though), so that's that. Otherwise... yeah there's Sambomaster's album. Oh yeah, I also delayed miwa's new single a listen too, considering first impressions aren't great. But still, anything I'll do for a regular artist in Klassic Note, yes? We shall see.


This is it then. Not that I've got anything after this week already, but then I'd like some more time for myself. For exercise (probably), and for my personal definition of freedom: doing whatever I like. So that includes Klassic Note 10th anniversary posts (which I'll do an introductory post soon starting next month, so stay tuned) and APoL (goddamn does thinking through an arc prove quite a task) and many much more. Well, sorting out stuff and playing games are also part of it, so... hehe. Cya guys next time then, and until next time... I'm mentally fine. Well, not without the pressure ahead of course. Still, I got holidays to go through. I'll be making the most of it, for sure.

Wednesday 24 May 2017

If being social means conversation with eye contact, then remove the requirement for eye contact and maybe we'll have a conversation.

Yeah, that's me being "anti-social", if that's what it means. Nonetheless, I noticed I'm more of an audio person maybe, because I never tested it with phone calls anyway. Most of them are for interviews lol. Still, missed the few times I had to converse with people on the phone (apart from the formal stuff), and that may be the social me.

Sunday 21 May 2017

The Entertainment News 2017 Edition Issue #21

Yeah, I just chose to do this later because personal grooming for next week is important haha. Also, every time I do this I get tired and bored about Sunday because Monday is approaching.

Now that I think about it, there isn't much difference. Expect earlier posts next week. Mostly because my following Monday will be under my control MUAHAHAHA


(*Tsuki ga Kirei is having an arc review episode this week like Alice to Zouroku last week, so...)
アニメ Alice to Zouroku
THIS IS ALL I HAVE WANTED. Thanks, Anime. Can we just have this for the rest of the season? No?
This new episode (#AliceToZouroku06) after an arc review (see above, and last week) is just... a slice-of-life Anime. In case you're here for just the action and think this is the next magical girl show or the next major arc of fighting and magic or whatever, it's not. At least, not for this episode. And maybe next week too, seeing the title. So yeah, this might just be it. Slice-of-life, the show that I've always wanted it to be. I mean, you don't know how it feels to watch Episode 1 and hope for the day it'll be like Usagi Drop where we talk about family and life, but hey, we apparently are. The episode lightly plays two days worth of life in the storyline, where Sana-chan joins Zouroku in walking the streets, helping out in his florist shop where possible, and getting accepted into the family. Hey, not very surprising, but he did it. Good on him, old man. But hey, as I mentioned, I like myself some peace and quiet. The problem here is, will it stay on like that? Will a bigger problem emerge considering it took 5 episodes to get Sana-chan to settle down? How long will this peace last? We won't find out next episode though it seems, but maybe soon. I don't know when, but soon.
I think I'm officially made a paedophile after this scene lol
(The family part, not the... fanservice haha)
P.S. Sanae-chan for MVP. Yes, it's not Sana-chan again. The granddaughter (the legit one haha) earns credit for always being cuter than the other. No really. And there's also whatever you'd expect as a granddaughter, lying around the house and going to school and stuff. Damn, Sana-chan needs to get to school so I can change MVPs haha
P.P.S. Seeing this episode Sana-chan clearly doesn't have the brains on being a human (I mean, she could've used the salon as point of communication ie. ask to call Zouroku) and as a magical girl (she can't do heating up water because she forgot she can place it down on something like a bucket lol), huh. Well, guess she needs more training. Talking about the latter, she can get Ichijou to be her sensei if she needs some lessons haha that girl's a badass

アニメ Eromanga-sensei
"Sorry, but I have siscon!" -Izumi Masamune, 2017 (Yeah, you wish he'd said that to Muramasa haha)
Hey, this new episode (#EromangaSensei07) continues on the potential competition between Masamune and the most popular light novel author above him, Muramasa Senjuu. Problem is, because this is a harem show (if it isn't obvious to you yet), we got another person who is in love with him. Not only for his works (because she probably didn't read enough books lol), but the person himself. (I hope she has seen enough guys to know Masamune isn't the best looking guy around lol) Although I have a feeling this is just a one-hit wonder episode where it's focused on Muramasa herself, but in this case there is also a lot on the flashbacks, and a lot on the life stories. The competition is still up, and she thought she could stop the sibling love that is between Masamune and Sagiri. She was wrong. Sagiri stepped up to the occasion (like, literally) to show how much that story matters to the couple to say the least, and it kind of makes of a slightly expected cliffhanger, because someone couldn't stop writing that love letter haha. On the other hand, in view of this going full on harem in the next few episodes, I would say that even so Muramasa (she) will no doubt play a good role in Masamune's (he) life. And as mentioned by the sister who should probably get out of the house soon, she might just go on dates with the most popular guy in town haha. No seriously, this is LITERALLY the definition of a harem Anime, for those who don't know of this term.
"Cosplay", huh.
No, I don't think she's cute. Sorry, Muramasa. No wonder he doesn't care.
The sister is a different story though lol


アニメ Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2
I can see how this is going to get exciting after this part now that we have the main party joining in (okay, no Levi, but still), so this season is going to end strong, I can feel it.
This new episode (#AttackOnTitan33) talks about the conclusion, which was whatever happened when the Colossal Titan dropped right on struggling Reiner and Eren in titan form. Turns out Bertolt (I researched on the name haha) was just throwing down his titan form, ready to distract Eren as he gets his limbs bit off by Reiner, before they decide to leave with Eren and Ymir. I won't bore you with the flashback and story afterwards, but suffice it to say many were injured, and waiting for the main party might just be their best option (as I said, no Levi haha). Good thing is, Hannes, who is smarter than those two traitors, knows where they would be headed. As time is of essence, this might just be it. I mean, for this season, to settle things straight. Well if it's a bunch of people fighting the impossible (steam, I mean) we are promised with straight on awesome action in the next few episodes down the line. Here's to hope there's some great ending we can achieve, if not for more people dying for the price of human victory in this arc. But hey, because I've been spoiled by manga somehow, I can't wait to see what happens on the other world with human titans, to be honest. But no, let's not make that happen for now, yes?
Eating combat rations porn lol
No really, especially Mikasa haha
P.S. Okay the next episode seems like a quarrel. Well, we have to finish those boring story heavy episodes somehow haha

漫画 Dagashi Kashi
The new chapters (59-60) are all about exotic dagashi, it seems. Don't ask me about lingo on these chapters because I didn't understand half of it either. Fancy to know there's a way to fake pasta from instant noodles, I would've done it myself haha. On other things, Hotaru is surprised Kokonotsu asked her a question about dagashi, and Sayashi can cook pasta?!! Sign me up!
Also, she knows how to strike a pose!
Damn, Hotaru-chan is sexy haha


音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
This week is prosperous in Klassic Note, in contrast to last week, as Apple Music is showering me with new songs waiting for me to give them. cinema staff's new album is pretty good I would say, because with ears only (the music videos are weird) I can give half the album up till now. Sayuri's first album probably is a disappointment, as her singing is really getting in the way of me giving some of the songs in the list. On the other hand, the melodies aren't that great either. I also chanced upon Yogee New Waves' new album released this week and I must say... I may have missed their style. But maybe not. I've only given one song thus far. Probably giving them more next week.

Not talking about next week (yet), I also got a chance to give earlier releases from up to last month. SpecialThanks new album is also out online somehow, and I guess I can give some of them. Well, I kind of gave quite a lot of them, many of them have music videos online, so be sure to check those out follow my YouTube playlist to get updated haha. Sambomaster's new single (not the album released last week though) from last month is also okay, but I just can't get myself to give all three songs anyway, so one will do lol

Next week brings us a lot of new releases. A lot of new singles, specifically. And I mean a lot. Like, half a dozen of them. Namely (in order of entry to the list of Klassic Note releases) Shinsei Kamatte-chan, TrySail, ORESAMA, toi toy toi, Toyosaki Aki-chan and Touyama Nao. Wow, that's a mouthful. Yes, you may also remember from last month that Kamatte-chan was already given, if not for me not knowing of its real release date haha. Also, all of them are Anime-related theme song releases, in case you wonder what's with the new songs release boom lol I mean I already pre-ordered Aki-chan's single haha


This is it then. I need to go to overlays too. What do you think? Does it spur you to go give a listen to? Or do I need to tap into the Apple Music Toolbox (I'm not joking it's official stuff) to show you widgets and give you music previews so your curiosity will be drawn out? Haha just joking anyway, there's no way I'll be doing it. I seriously considered about it though. For like, half an afternoon. But no, I'm too lazy already. Also, too busy doing up this blog too. So, no. *laughs*

Sunday 14 May 2017

The Entertainment News 2017 Edition Issue #20

Argh, really not in the mood for all these. Honestly saying, because it's two weeks to the end of a lot of things (Hint: It's my internship), and it's also been two weeks since I got nothing on Apple Music. Really felt like being cheated of my money now, but then again it's a coincidence how all the new songs aren't available in there anyway.

*sigh* Hopefully two weeks later isn't like this. That's the highlight week of the month btw


(FYI Alice to Zouroku takes a break for the second arc next week, which is like, tonight. So...)
アニメ Tsuki ga Kirei
No, you MOST DEFINITELY HAVE TO BETRAY YOUR FRIEND!! Go tell your guy now that she wants to confess to him! lol
This new episode (#TsukiGaKirei06) may be a little less exciting than usual (or it's just me), but there is development. A lot of it. We know of the results of Akane's track meet (Spoiler: She failed) and Koratou's outcome of being a literature guy (Spoiler: He didn't cut it), but it's more than that. Akane may be distracted from having her friend Chinatsu in the way of their relationship, and Kotarou may have chosen his career path. But I see more books and it looks like there's more Dazai, so I guess he rejected the offer of being a light novelist after all. Good thing is they are encouraging each other up (unlike that jerk Hira haha) and making things suck a little less. Also worth mentioning are parenting in this episode, where Akane's parents are bossy yet give their kids the freedom to do their best even during their final school year compared to Kotarou's. Okay, just the mother. "But seriously, mom, I got sh*tted on enough already today" was probably what he thought haha. The show always paid good attention to not let too many thoughts and words get in the way, and they displayed the actions enough for you to infer. So how? What's next? Will Kotarou say no? Because he better be, for Chinatsu - who is going to confess to him in the near future - is going to do her best on it. And I'm wondering if he can resist. But hey, I'm not worried about it because I'm not him haha
That is Akane's "you betrayed me hard" sister face lol
P.S. Lol the short stories. Having Miu-chan as your girlfriend must be a pain in the neck. Or your arm. Or your brain. Or your observational skills. No seriously, deal with it. That's practically every other girl on the street right now. Yes, including those foreigners too haha

アニメ Eromanga-sensei
So Megumin you want to like what Sagiri-chan likes? You should start looking at yourself HAHAHA GOT HER
Okay, the episode (#EromangaSensei06). Yeah, it got adult rated REAL QUICK when they started inviting Megumin into Sagiri's room for some reason. In exchange for a chance to be friends, Megumin has accepted to be... I guess, ridiculed? (I mean, you made a middle school girl cry you idiot) Hey, I'm not going to talk about it here, but suffice it to say they blindfolded her and tied her up lol. Onto the second part because I rather let you watch to find out, Masamune has troubles publishing his next work in collaboration with Eromanga-sensei. He may get held up, and as in consequence lose his life with his sister right now (which in honesty isn't really that great I mean he has to take care of the sister while focusing on getting work done; remember the past few episodes?). Fortunately, his manager did set him up to publish his book in a competition, and if he wins it will get his book out faster. Problem is, there is competition. Not just ordinary competition. It's from that author who has been affected hard by Masamune's same writing style (doing a heck a lot better than him though) and has been sh*t on by Elf-sensei at the door. So yeah, Senju Muramasa, ladies and gentlemen. She has been hit hard, and she will hit people hard. Well, in novel writing, at least. I mean, come on. For Masamune being called names of being a pass-off to her, you know she's going to be pissed off for being mocked on the same issue. I guess you can't put revenge aside right now. We've got a love story to beat. Then again, Muramasa-san, if you can beat sibling love you'll be THE best author ever and we can end this series lol. We shall see.
Little does she know she's going to get violated HARD haha
Well hope she learns her lesson lol
P.S. MVP Megumin for being violated as a girl. Hey, I'm not into little girls, and I won't say much of the ridicule she's been through (because I'm not a perv and I don't know any other short girls voiced by Kido Ibuki HAHAHA #超エロい). Poor Sagiri, didn't get to see her face when doing so (I mean, she's a fashionable b*tch lol)f. Still, it's probably better off knocking her out before doing this haha
P.P.S. The hardsub here is because some online source dropped it. And it maybe because of the first half of the episode lol

アニメ Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2
As I said, last draw. Last draw, people. Cannot be totally Eren's win anyway haha
This new episode (#AttackOnTitan32) is as epic as the preview last episode shows. Ignoring Eren's belief in anything of Reiner, let's talk about that important flashback about close combat. In the middle insert image (if you ever read those) the show talked about close combat as a human tied to titan form too, so yeah, Eren tried to use that to his advantage. He's doing pretty well, Reiner's screaming for help (sort of), but yeah, his buddy comes to save him. Hey, I won't know what happens until next week, but seeing they still have the time to talk about what happens to Eren, reminiscing about the past and doing long-drawn drama which is pretty much the only thing I hate about this show, then so be it. I'm not that bothered after all. I'll take the action and fighting this episode and go away happy. That's good enough haha
This episode in a nutshell. #geteffedEren
Makes you wonder why the Colossal Titan took a while to join this fight.
P.S. MVP Hange for being satisfied on having a conversation with titan Eren. I mean, you'd be happy too haha


漫画 Kono Bijutsubu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!
The new chapter (51) which surprisingly is following the latest in Japan, continues on the library trip of the Art Club. Unlike all art clubs who won't have problems, we have a guy on top of a girl. Haha yeah, we continue from last chapter where Uchimaki lands on Usami. Don't worry; he didn't even twitch. On other things, Imari-chan is here for Necronomicon (did I get that right? *double checks* YES! haha) once again, and turns out this book might just exist in the library. Ignoring the Chairman who is still sleeping, Imari-chan gets the others to join in the treasure hunt. What happens next? Your guess is as good as mine. If it's nothing, that is.
If I were cute I'll be as dumb as Colette-chan haha
But I'm not, so I fake fall like Imari-chan lol

漫画 Dagashi Kashi
The new chapter (58) talks about horror stories. Yeah, in a sweet. How convenient. But hey, if it beats a children's' horror story series (*wink* Goosebumps *wink*) then why not? On other things, I don't remember this being in the Anime, and Sayashi is one scared girl. I like. *laughs*
When you have an a**hole sibling and you're a scaredy cat lol


音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Eh... let's talk about new songs because I can't talk about reviews. SpecialThanks new album is out this week, but then I only have like... three topic songs to listen to (haha) online, so be sure to go take a listen. Honestly saying up till now it's not been impressive. I mean, I prefer last year's mini-album. Komatsu Mikako's new album is also out this week, but thus far there's only the one music video which I think it's okay (I did criticise heavily of Q-MHz composition when I reviewed her latest single last year) and everything else... let's say I have no idea lol. Sambomaster's new album is also out this week following their new single last month which I also did not have a listen to, but hey, I can just take one song. Sid's new single too...

I know. It's hard to talk about reviews when there's practically nothing to talk about because I didn't get a listen to them. I took the time then to go review Aimer's best albums and I must say:

On the other hand, I might just give her latest song. It's not bad anyway.

Next week presents us... nothing. Okay, maybe cinema staff's new album, which might also not appear. So yeah, I might just run out of juice by two weeks from now. I really need to go give those indie artists a listen. Have you? Some of them are pretty good, though it was harder to find them compared to last year lol. cinema staff though, is not (likely) going to disappoint. I can feel it.


This is it then. Sorry for the lack of content in Klassic Note, but I can't bear to spend a lot of money to buy songs and then trash them, and if I don't trash them means I'll be like those kind-hearted fellows who "share" them with the Internet, which is by the way illegal btw. Cya guys then, and until next time... I hope to hear some of them. Come on, Mikakoshi's album would be good for starters. I know the other two are harder. Please, Internet? I can't go on not giving new songs at this rate... *sob*

Friday 12 May 2017

Remember: Part of being free is to not know of the truth.

I say this in light of any form of gossip, of course, mostly negative. But hey, that's the problem of being in a community. The truth is, that people can be talking behind your back when moving out as a group about you being a burden, you being too forced on the group etc. but all in all this is inevitable. We just have to be more sensitive towards such action and just... tolerate your own case once in a while. Okay, maybe more than that.

Monday 8 May 2017

The Dream Record #14

Hey, it's been some time. Let's see how detailed I can write this. It may be too fresh for me to write it because my writing skills are that bad. Forgive me, yes? I'm not a novelist, or I wished I am.
(*Characters and locations will be vague due to the nature of what it is and where it's referenced from; notes will be placed below all for self reference)
"I was walking around in the mall someday until I walked to a corner of a mall, nearby an ATM and some amenities, far from most shops. Suddenly, a tug on me brought me away from the mall, leaving through the back exit. Before I could turn around, I reached another tall building nearby the mall. Until now I've not been able to see whoever it is, but it's no doubt a school girl for her height and build. It wasn't until she spoke did I notice she sounded familiar. What is she doing dragging me around, I thought, as I noticed I ended up in a large bedroom and then in the bathroom. She flipped open the cover of the bathtub and threw me in with great force. I laid down on the tub somehow in bliss as she said 'Keep your voice down' and laid on top of me."
Okay, it may have been for me to set an introduction, but for real, the dream started as late as when I was in the bathroom haha. Story setting, as they say.
"All of a sudden, the bathtub started moving down, however I did not bother as I was rather tired at that time. I did feel something amiss though, as I immediately saw an underground lab when we are out. 'I'm going to train you to be the best police officer around', she said, as she walked around the large chamber waving to all the scientists around, speaking technical terms that I did not comprehend."
Clearly she's a genius, right? I want to offer context here but maybe at the end, yes?
"We were outside with many other teenagers like me. It was as if we're doing some physical training, surprisingly outside of the tall building still standing before me. Some of them did some runs, and I'm standing around with a few others by the road. The sign was exceptionally weird that it contained a location on one side as I saw it (I even asked someone where we are) and flipping it around was a person's name for some reason. She then told us to go for our break, and most of us headed for the nearby mall. Feeling detached somehow, I followed to the mall as I see people drawing money from the machine and the others are walking away to the shops."
Okay, that's pretty much of it anyway. (Audience: Really?) Yeah, but that doesn't mean there's no room for a potential story. (I'm making up the summary here btw) A strong girl who has lost her parents that own a large security company is hiring me, a local police dude to train me so to protect her like the secret service? Don't ask for the questioning background scene and how I found out I'm a police officer (I inferred just like you), but suffice it to say I'm looking forward to the scene where I have to protect her with all my might lol

This is it then. References that I can mention include the protecting part because I've been reading Kuroshitsuji (RIP Agni) and the supposed running session because it's oddly familiar (even in graphics lol) to Anime Tsuki ga Kirei with Akanecchi in the track and field club. Others I can't really mention is the location of Tampines (the one side of the sign) and Fion Bay (please don't go searching for her, she's just an acquaintance of mine), and this story is starring someone called Ayamori Ichika (because you cannot find her info if you don't lead my kind of life lol), so please don't go searching for those, yes?

Please?


Cya guys again then. I noticed I'll get vivid dreams if I'm stressed or anticipating something in the future. And I am, for I've field work to do today. Beats rotting in the office all day, I guess. Have a good day. I'll do up the blockquotes when I reach home haha

P.S. Of course the theme song for this must be amazarashi's "Hero", who am I joking, right? No really, not a coincidence I assume.

The Entertainment News 2017 Edition Issue #19

Haha trying back a style I tried some time ago because I saw it just now lol. Anyways, another week has passed (four-day work weeks are great), and there's going to be another one ahead, so... three cheers for end of internship? Yahoo!~

But really, I just want everything to end soon. Summer holidays, I mean. You don't want to know why.


アニメ Alice to Zouroku
I wished this was the perfect ending. I wished this show had only this many episodes. I was wrong. (sorry that was for next week lol) Then again, this can continue, right?
This new episode (#AliceToZouroku05) concludes the long fight between (I wouldn't call it long anyway) the research facility and the police department, of course from last week the touching scene of Sana-chan calling Zouroku but then also, the arrival of Ichijou, an agent for the good side of the police force who is also an ability user. I'll leave the history of her powers and the fights thereafter for you to watch, but suffice it to say she overpowered Minnie C enough to stop her (which is losing of energy), and thus the full on operation of taking down the opposing force started. All is peace and quiet in the Kashimura family it seems with the initiation of a new granddaughter (I'm talking for Zouroku haha), and Naito-san (that old acquaintance who is also in the police) wants some action, so I guess... We're getting more, right? I felt like I missed something that isn't mentioned, but something's wrong, right? I hope they have something left to write after this episode; I don't want this to be a slice-of-life anime from here on. Actually, I WANT this to be a slice-of-life show, as I mentioned at the start. Chances are, we'll be revealed more ability users soon, I guess? But for now, Ichijou kicks a** in all, Sana-chan is not matured enough (in age and in power) to use anything in full force yet, and Zouroku is a happy man flying in the sky. Alice to Zouroku, everyone. *laughs* #happyending
Me (left) and my BFF when someone tells us to get married already lol
P.S. This episode of Alice to Zouroku is brought to you by... Snickers! That delicious chocolate bar with various nutritional grains to ensure you stay strong and ready to use your magical powers after eating... a whole luggage bag of it?? Oh, and can we please have the omake of this episode be Sana-chan eating up the bars? "Oh this tastes real good" or something like that? Please? #ad
P.P.S. MVP Sanae-chan, for crying better than Sana-chan last episode and being cuter than Sana-chan who is being cute haha #actcute (Sorry Aki-chan, can't help but)

アニメ Tsuki ga Kirei
Damn watching this show is like having one of those popsicles with the sticks that say you win or lose and you thought you win but you're a loser haha. Don't get the joke? Try Guugle-ing (lol) "popsicle stick win lose", I guess? (Sorry ahead of time for not finding any relevant results though haha)
This new episode (#TsukiGaKirei05) brings us our eventual relationship jump, I would say. Chinatsu may be MVP this episode (haha), but she is also in the pivot of the main couple's relationship, for better or for worse. For now, it's the latter. The couple meet, Chinatsu is there. The couple meet again, and she tells Akanecchi she likes the guy she is going out with in cram school. Now what? Will this make their relationship turn bad? I mean, it's hard to come together, and it's even easier to break apart. I'm constantly watching this episode coming up with tsukkomi (go find that out yourself) to their cringing moments and I think I've done enough of them. Goodness gracious if something's going to burst out all of a sudden next episode because this is going to be terrible in any direction possible? Why not inquire why Chinatsu and him are in the library? Why not feel for her and ask her of what she wants to do on dates? Why not hold her hand and assure her that you'll be by her side? Why not share Chinatsu's opinion that someone is interfering with your relationship? Questions you have to ask, but they don't, plus the action more than words between the two... this is going to be good drama for what's going to happen up next hehe I can't wait
(Edit: That Akane face when Kotarou was with Chinatsu in the library... I mean, I'm not even mad and she's like "don't tell me your excuse was 'I sent messages to two LINE accounts' or something" haha) (Also, THAT should've been the motivation for clearing up misunderstandings of Chinatsu's entry to their relationship) (Also also, Kotarou screwed it up soooooo hard on his explanation haha)
Little do you know this website is run by famous voice actress Horie Yui lol
(Pun here is "Yaho!" is one of her single titles? I don't know haha)
P.S. Is Hira-kun like a ghost? He disappears without hearing a reply from Akanecchi (so this is what a leader does, huh) and is totally not feeling the empathy on others. Then again, this show has many people who do not understand any of the main couple (besides Kotarou's friend who runs that library), so this is okay I guess.
P.P.S. Yeah relationships problems in a summary on the short stories, I guess. From making choices for your girl to parents not liking potentially delinquents as potential family, there's everything to look out for in this show. Nice job, production. I always have a good laugh
(My comment in RC, because I can't stop talking about it)

アニメ Eromanga-sensei
Hmm, this week definitely brings some plot progression. I like it actually, this show is showing good promise in that, and it's not as forced as... someone showing her panties? Ugh, can't unsee... (Warning: You may become a paedophile after this series)
This new episode (#EromangaSensei05) continues on the fantastic yet unbelievable trust between the siblings. Furthermore, we are assured that Masamune likes his stepsister and Sagiri... let's just say she likes him back. It's mutual, but they want to work, so putting that aside, they are both in the search for inspiration and assistance to create their big project. Elf-sensei is in quite a pinch herself, Sagiri is super distracted about loli girls right now, and Masamune's friend at the bookstore may just be Eromanga-sensei's next model lol. Damn, this show balances out everything good. Throw in Megumin and her lack of shame for doing everything to get Sagiri as her friend... that one I guess we'll have to wait for next episode or something, but this is really turning out to be that typical Anime that you'll totally enjoy. Also, shoutout to Shana-chan and Taiga-chan for (not) their cameo appearance in years, and I don't think that's all done by the infamous Kugimiya Rie because... *looks at credits* my guess is they just got the voice for Tomoe to do these. I may be wrong though haha
Edit: Kido Ibuki as Megumin is probably what you wanted in life as an otaku. Well, at least, in here... *points at show* lol
"Have you started wearing a bra already??"
That's getting back at you Elf-sensei haha
(But seriously, has hasn't she? lol)
P.S. Who the f*** put that random editor running just to pass the story time? Seriously...
P.P.S. Also, this show is serious in making you look at naked girls and their panties for goodness sake. (Because if you re-watched that bath scene of Megumin you're officially a hentai I assure you) Also also, Sagiri, if you need references of panties go watch adult videos. Plenty of them all over the place. I speak from experience lol
(So many references... I think I'm not going to list them all but in case you missed them just watch it again! #freepromo)

アニメ Shingeki no Kyojin Season 2
Oh damn, not recap intro again... This in TV show terms means they have lack of content to put on that few minutes before the opening haha
This new episode (#AttackOnTitan31) is real. Yep, just in case you can't wait for the next episode already (I know, for the action), then let me tell you here then. We have traitors in our group. I rather not say who they are, but Annie didn't die in vain. (Remember the Anime four years ago?) That is to say, but then these guys are done with their objectives, and they'd rather "go home", according to one of them. Mikasa is fast on the draw, unfortunately not fast enough to stop the two of them from transforming into Titans. And that's where it probably all started, if you could recall in the very start of this series. But hey, I'm not going to talk about much, for what is ahead is actually a lot more exciting, isn't it? This episode is focusing on (may I quote a bit of Reiner) a bunch of idiots thinking logically about what happened around here even though they're probably all going to die on this wall lol. Okay, I'm not being very optimistic and I'm being a real a-hole right now, but I can't wait to see what happens. Considering it's those Colossal Titans, I'm not going to be positive about this.
Real cool, brings the tensions up to max this season,
but damn, Reiner when you're like this you're scary.
P.S. Let's talk a little about the situation mentioned in the story. The traitors mentioned about them Titans wanting to eradicate all of humanity (haha back at them lol) and that there is no need for it now. Does that mean (or should I assume) that their job was to gauge how powerful humanity is in fighting against them? A good example would be that monkey face of a Titan from the last few episodes (sorry don't know whose human was it from) finding out the soldiers' gear and taking it back for investigations. So is that what it is? To prove a superior race? To run a world that is just nothing but Titans? Or to prove that if it takes a f*** ton of humans to kill one Titan then they have lots more?? I don't know man, but this not overpopulation thing back to like, the dinosaur age where the largest beings rule the world is kind of weird, I guess. Well, don't think too much then; the show better make it clear in this season, to say the least.


漫画 Kuroshitsuji
Holy sh*t what did I just see? The new chapters (126, 127) (sorry for totally forgetting about it haha) continue on Bravat and his scheme being revealed, so let's talk about that first. Ciel calls on the parliament to be stable considering many officials just sent their blood to that one guy Bravat is keeping alive, and proceedings continue as they try to find out what Elizabeth is influenced by. I suspect it may not be as simple as we think. On other things, someone is after the life of Prince Souma apparently, and his butler Agni, being all so loyal and fulfilling his duty, sacrificed his life from the supposed killer. I don't want to guess who the killer is (maybe one of the P4 Bravat himself?), but yeah, it was a sad scene to even watch. Thanks Yana-chan-sensei for the draws; this was one gory ending. Ignoring intentions behind all this (which we no doubt will find out soon), Souma talking about staying here and Agni and his duties seem rather relevant and is tying quite a few things together, I would say. Here's saluting to Agni for his boldness in defending his master at all costs (you should've seen his back, which I will not post here), and may he rest in peace. Because for one, this situation is REALLY getting out of hand. I'm pissed off, for once. WHO THE F*** DID IT??? Argh, should've missed another month to read them all haha
Well at least we got to see the true power of Agni's bandaged concealed arm
#badass

漫画 Dagashi Kashi
The new chapter (57) talks about glucose it seems. I guess it's just another ramune, but the application of this product may be overboard considering it literally revived the father from a hangover lol. Interesting part here is Kokonotsu's decision to talk to Hotaru about... taking over the shop? Uh oh, will this series be over? I guess not yet, but then it's worth a thought. Not because of summer festival I suppose, but suffice it to say he enjoyed himself? Hey, that isn't shown in the Anime haha
Between this and Hotaru shoving it down his throat (lol) I chose this haha
On other things, I wished I had enough mobile data to read manga at work. *laughs* Okay I don't, which explains why I never continue reading those I wanted to. Maybe I should, for the weeks that I have nothing else to do? We'll see. On other things, remember "Boku Tame"?? (Boku ga Boku de Aru Tame ni) Goddamn someone needs to translate that. I can only get "Miyuki (secondary character) is very cute" on the latest chapter online. Okay, I also know that tall girls can get cute Miyuki-san (*wink* Aki-chan *wink*), so that's that haha. I don't think I want to write that down here though. Not for now, at least.


音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
This week has been quiet, unless you're talking about that journey I took to find indie artists and their new songs to listen. Feel free to help yourself and explore the new artists who are trying to aim for a spot on the big festival stage with ROJACK, and I think I may not be going to Audioleaf next time since... they upgraded their website. (I need to learn HTML soon haha) On other things, I did give a listen to Hata Motohiro's new single to little success, and I told myself I will listen to Aimer's best albums someday. So I may, just... not today.

Talking about next week - in which Wednesday is also a public holiday where I live - I'll be reviewing hopefully a couple of albums including Sambomaster and Komatsu Mikako. Problem here recently is that, if you didn't hear, Nyaa is closed. Yes, that popular torrent site for all things Anime and also one of the music sources that I know of. Not even down, not attacked, just closed. The owner has chosen to close it. So that's going to be a future problem though, which no doubt will stop me from getting new songs from this month onwards. Haiz, goddamn whatever legal realisation is happening because I still need the leeching, I guess. You may be rich to own iTunes, but I don't. Apple Music is not even giving me quite enough anyway.


Talking about next week, (yes this is the end), I also want to play games. And since I can't wait until then, I've decided to stop here. So... yeah. Cya guys then, and until next time... sometimes you wish the manga you read become anime. So far... there isn't a GE Good Ending anime, and Tonari no Kashiwagi-san only got a read aloud animated manga series, (BTW what happened to the scans for last volume? I want to know the end) so... *laughs*
