The Entertainment News 2022 Edition Issue #39

Well, I gotta start this post a little earlier because we got new shows to talk about too!

Yeah, it's the last week of September and what comes after that is just a whole slew of Anime that I won't watch- Hey I've already given FIVE shows this season don't expect another miracle like this to happen after what we did this for two seasons straight, by the way. *laughs* Also the forwarding service dropped me another item days after I shipped out so F**K ME lol

Sad things aside, not everything will go according to plan not even the story ending to video game "Bear and Breakfast" I feel like I've been completely betrayed *sigh* so let's talk about happier endings... maybe? I don't know I haven't watched it yet haha

アニメ Fall 2022 Anime Preview

[Powered by Random Curiosity]

We've reached another checkpoint in the timeline once again, where I will talk about more drama and everything in between in the animated universe of Japan for the next few months. *laughs* Anyways, below are my opinions of Anime to end the year, and let's hope I don't have a laundry list to watch this time around, fingers crossed:

[In simulcast chronological order and if I watch, in square brackets]

• Hmm I don't think I will be watching "Uchi no Shishou wa Shippo ga Nai" because it kinda reminds me of business genre Anime series which I detest, but otherwise it's just Anime storytelling... in Anime. Haha okay it's more than that, but I... just am not keen on the elements to give the rest- Oh hey GARNiDELiA lol *phew*
• Yes, my rice supply is all up and running for "Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! Double" [Premieres 1st October 2022] because I can take another season of jokes and cringe romance moments that goes so well with rice (I don't eat while watching btw but) I HAVE to see what else this simple love story has to offer. With the introduction of the brother at the end of the first season, and many new characters to come, I just hope what I remembered from its slower storytelling pace would not stop me from liking this series once again.
• Shout out to all the sequels including "Hero Academia" and "SPY x FAMILY" that I don't give a shit about lol my sis does though- Wait there's "Conan" and "POP TEAM EPIC"?? Okay haha I don't care
• Initially I was keen on "Koukyuu no Karasu" [Premieres 1st October 2022] but I don't see it being a great premise if the new emperor just wants to do whatever he wants... to a woman who can do everything haha I mean, I know this won't turn into a porno but heck, I don't want to know more about it with the context of period drama. I may have to pass on this one- Also I still haven't watched "Heike Monogatari"!! Haha that is a tragic feel from just the intro though so maybe this isn't bad...?
• I've heard stuff from "Do It Yourself!!" but yeah, not into this genre where girls can fix stuff better than me. *laughs*
• I saw the promotional image for "Akiba Maid Sensou" and I'm already like *shrugs* haha
• I stan for "K-ON!" so don't try me with "Bocchi The Rock" lol you can only be impressed by music-based Anime once I tell ya
• Of course, it's been some time coming since they announced it at its 20th anniversary 2 years ago, "BLEACH: Sennen Kessen Hen" [Premieres 10th October 2022] a.k.a. the Thousand Year Blood War arc which is the final arc of the manga series before Kubo-sensei decided to end it, is finally in animation! Man, if you would ask what I would expect from this ever so final adaptation, is that they don't suck. Period. In detail though, this will be a good time to show all the animation of sword releases of all the shinigami once again and pray that the quality doesn't suck, bring in some new blood into the cast including I know Taketatsu Ayana is in this, and theme songs are selected by Kubo-sensei himself... I really just hope all of this will make me satisfied as a fan. Trust me, I could not put that imaginary sword down as I sleep every night swinging it by my bed: That's how much I want this to be good. Oh yeah, and blood; Thank goodness we're in late night simulcast so DEFINITELY not puke because this is no longer a primetime slot and I *pukes* Monday nights instead now haha
• I don't know what to give of original Anime "Renai Flops" after I've given two of them this season already lol, but I highly doubt the girls in this series will make me want to watch whatever will happen with this guy who lives with them holding panties. *silence* No really, I'm fine with dealing with this type of plot haha also the comedy from the trailer is weird lmao everything is weird why must they put in so much visual contrast in the characters
• I did say I intend to watch the remake of 90s Anime series "Urusei Yatsura (2022)" [Premieres 13th October 2022] but considering it's two cour ie. this will span till March next year, I don't think I will watch it at all just because I don't want long series now. Starring a new cast of people for the main characters and yes Uesaka Sumire is how I knew of this, I still would think twice mainly because it's talking about alien love. *silence* Man, what is Anime even haha
• "Yo-nin wa Sorezore Uso o Tsuku" sounds like a cute slice-of-life series until they had to lie. Honest me will not stand with this so

Oh wow, just two and they are sequels?? Hmm... maybe I'll pick up a couple of maybes I don't think the rest I mention here will actually be good but maybe I'll watch an episode and we'll work from there. Also great time to take a break from Anime though, my past few months have been watching all the shows through a Sunday afternoon and... I want to do other stuff lol okay me

I mean, Marinka is in "Karasu" and "Urusei" has Sumipe so I'll figure something out haha or just watch "Heike Monogatari" like I should have a year ago lmao

アニメ Mamahaha no Tsurego ga Motokano Datta

"How could such a weak person exist?" Well Mizuto that's life, finding people weaker than you to protect *wink*

Yeah no one else but Yume-chan fainted when Mizuto wore his yukata- Ah hey, I wish I was someone's fetish. *laughs* In this final episode of an interesting series which didn't serve to impress but made me think otherwise (#TsureKano12), I was totally expecting incest, by the way. Not gonna lie. *laughs* So, in case you wonder if this is the conclusion to the original work ie. the light novel series, don't think too deep into it because it's unlikely haha, but we can talk about how they made this whole. Firstly, the festival. Two years later, the two finally got back alone together, seeing that Mizuto is clearly avoiding hanging out with his family for his own moments, but maybe, just maybe, she wants to be with Yume-chan even all those years ago. Remember when he said his phone ran out of battery? Some family member found his secret hideout, likely so. So yeah, if we think of it this way, Mizuto just had to deal with obligations, as much as he wants to hang out with the girl. Yume-chan, I mean. *giggles* Even Mizuto explained to us himself, that he really wants more of the reality that is dating someone who is so much weaker than he thought and he must protect. I mean, I've never been there for I'm the one who was weak so good on you. *laughs* Maybe, just maybe, it's because Mizuto thinks that Yume-chan was the one, and it probably is even if the past has concluded, that still makes him a kid. Maybe it's also because Yume-chan who still loves him after all these years which made him not be able to forget the days they were together. As not siblings. Yep. That's already just sad talking about it and just viewing the fireworks after they have not done so for two years straight. Oh yeah, and that kiss. *giggles* Hey, siblings, dude. Kissing between family members is normal. Just maybe not mouth to mouth HAHAHAHAHA okay remember what I mentioned about incest? *dabs* Anyways, screw you Isana and your rack. *laughs* Grow your hair longer. *laughs* Okay we need to stop these jokes, they already said it's a coincidence. It is also this coincidence and of course we cannot NOT talk about love at first sight, that brought these two together. Ah, remembering my days when I had a crush on someone... yeah I know it's not the same but it's something like this *sob*, but suffice it to say that both of them remembered each other but of different reasons. This much, they will never let this intimate relationship go. Whether it's as family, or as exes, or even an amalgamation of both because who says you can't marry your stepsibling lmao oh you can't huh, then just shows how much they have grown. All in all, I just think this is a great series to chill off after all the romance stuff we have watched these few seasons and just lightly talk about something as complicated in plot but as simple as talking out each other's minds. Heck, we even know Isana is a male. *laughs* Oh come on, only Kawanami doesn't know that sh*t and thinks he's still the only friend here- Bro, why can't we have more friends? *laughs* Well I only have the one technically so I can't gauge anything here so ANYWAYS COMING BACK haha, this is definitely a show to watch. It's not dramatic as you would think, but it's also not so boring until I have no feelings towards this series just like how Mizuto would feel about Minami-san being her girlfriend. *laughs* It's just a joyride, that's all, just like how the Irido siblings have been, and just how I have been in the past. *sob* It truly was, a sad affair. Haha finally I don't have to reference book titles LOL I only know so much dude you can't do this to me

EXPECTATION
(No really, won't even say this Anime is ecchi level)

REALITY
(Yeah, just a kiss you technically can't enjoy because stepsiblings lol)

P.S. "Don't you hate big crowds like this?" Wow Mizuto SAME DUDE lol he is definitely representing a lot of us introverts for sure "I suppose I don't have good memories of them" WHOO Yume-chan can we not talk about history again?? *cringe*

P.P.S. "Festival stalls are always so expensive" Uh oh inflation rates lol thank goodness Japan opening up their borders for free travel again so their currency can go back up and my honeymoon discounts on international shipping will be *poof*

[I feel like we don't have enough Yume-chan so here's more haha]

Cute but can you zoom out please?

Much better haha *thumbs up*

アニメ Warau Arsnotoria Sun!

"I smell something..." Man, it's either the smell of horses, Tori-chan, or men. Sweaty men in suits haha

"Those are for today's tea, though? Mine are for to eat whenever" Mell-chan what a chad haha in this final episode where I guess we dealing with capitalism now lol (#Arusuno12), we gotta talk about the prices of a lot of things. Firstly, let's get this out of the way, the price of war. As we have seen being hard cut into and out of as if they are invading Ashram lol, the Knights are fighting against some enemy force. So yeah, the price of war for them isn't that much to be honest their commanders are well equipped with ways to defend against archers and the normal troops, but until the day they can find their threat and eliminate them hopefully not in the form of cute girls lol, the price to pay will only increase over time. Another thing that is also increasing in price are the groceries in my country the girls buying more stuff for their afternoon tea, anticipating good old Alberta ie. the elder sister's return. So yeah, just a simple round-up of stuff at the bakery, we see our occasional Lidel-san because in case you aren't aware is an Anime original character they gotta make her appear somewhere so why not let her find stuff all around the campus which she can easily replace? *laughs* Hey, you would think I know how to write the story for this series. *giggles* And then everything else seems to fall in place nicely. From my delight of trying out scones and whatever is pancakes with cheese *umph* haha, to knowing about not Pica-chan who is just the symbol of mannerism, we ended up knowing about cool Abramelin who casted the one magical spell to prevent a fall even though I swear it was to make me fall... in love with her lmao, Tori-chan's subtlety in everything and of course as a cheat code to facilitate storytelling or else we will find specific objects in a matter of years, Mell-chan and her lively personality and cuteness above all else somehow just doesn't fail to impress even when she is in a panic lol, and ko-Alberta which is the cutest existence I've seen in this series, no further arguments. *giggles* Because all in all, who really cared about the Knights fighting against the Listeners, or if any of that ties to the actual game? I believe it's the origin story for the video game it is adapted from, but who cares. All I know is that I enjoyed these three months basked in the joys and stories of the girls in this magical school of manners and a lot of afternoon teas, and that's fine by me. Again, if not for me looking at Yukimura Eri's list of shows she was casted in three months ago, I would have NEVER gained any interest in this series at all, trust me. And I'm glad I did, this is one heck of a slice-of-life masterpiece. Maybe the guys weren't necessary after all, even if for relevance. *giggles* So yeah, thanks for the Anime for this, I understand why mobile game "Alternative Girls" didn't get an actual Anime adaptation just because, but damn, this was such a ride, I'll remember the tales again of not the Knights in time to come.

Bows are formal but this just shows they have good legs hehe

A day of this shopkeeper must be awesome haha most businessmen dream of being them

OMG shy Alberta is saikou haha also my girl when I see her from afar on our first date

P.S. "Jumping down like that is improper, Mell-san" I mean Pica-chan, THAT was the problem?? Like WTF you can jump this far down from a tower in this magical school? "It's also not that far down" Okay Abra-san I'll take your word for it lol

P.P.S. "Isn't it more fun if you think it's real and then you'll feel more lucky?" Yeah like how I think video game gacha is real I'll definitely get a SSR outfit this week- (Nope, I didn't, I didn't after ALL THOSE GEMS!!! lol)

[And let's round them up ONE LAST TIME!! No more of this btw too many thumbnails lol]

Happiness is...
(Also where I started with so thanks Pica-chan)

So Abramelin are yours also this soft? Haha *gets punched*

*Magic girl Anime FYI
(Haha yeah jam is kinda cute I guess)

Mell-chan is just overall perfectly balanced cute there's so much of her that is lovely

And Alberta is the best must protect hehe

アニメ Lycoris Recoil

"Yes. Because you guys destroy, I'll destroy as well."

Oh come on you gotta turn off the power right now? Well RIP Sakura-san, didn't expect someone to die before Chisato. *laughs* Okay serious talk about the final episode of this fantastic action series- Anime original by the way (#LycoReco13), there is nothing serious to talk about. *laughs* No really, they took us for a ride, and then some. What was serious though, let's talk about that first. The shootout at the lift? Someone got hurt. Spoiler alert, not Takina haha, for she has to save Chisato as now being left alone with Majima after he appeared once again even though we thought he was done. Sakura-san got hurt instead, and between a choice of bringing her down to ground level from the Tower to save her and saving Chisato with a weakened heart per se, the team went both ways. Well, Takina did. And yeah, she did save the buddy after all. Then, the cover-up. That was serious okay? They were making a movie about Lycoris. *laughs* What, they have to come up with something since Walnut did anyways, so they had to go along with it haha I like how all talent agencies deny the portrayal of the bad guy in this movie since no one wants to tarnish their reputation. *giggles* Also serious talk, Yoshi-san had to die, thanks to Mika-san. Yes, Kurumi is technically correct, Mika is not only just a commander in the DA, but also a professional at protecting Chisato as he has always did all these years. From faking his walker to throwing the new birthday message meant for Chisato away which should come along with the new heart, he has done it all to protect this girl as I guess a dad. Even if it means killing the mom. *laughs* Well Alan Institute is screwed up too might as well draw the line here and now hehe not like Chisato appreciated the necklace return even if she is so far away from the capital already. Now that we are done with serious stuff, let's talk about all the jokes. Well for starters, Majima doesn't have much up his sleeve besides getting rid of Chisato as an effort to rid of the DA. The explosion countdown is just for the fireworks lol probably meant for something else but not like they can change that since Robota was arrested, his gun not being returned to any authority probably doesn't symbolize anything because how are you going to survive a fall down such a huge tower(?), and I guess he did his job as bad guy to expose even just a little of the Lycoris to mainstream media. I mean, you can cover everything up but you can't change the movie title. *laughs* And then, it's the aftermath. Clearly no one is dead other than Yoshi-san in this episode ironically lol, and yes that includes Chisato which after realizing she has survived a surgery and in a hospital not operated by Yoshi-san's assistant this time who knows what happened to her I suppose Mika uses real bullets so RIP, escaped to a far away land before she was found out by, you guessed it, the couple who took a photo for Episode 1. *laughs* NOW you know this is an original series. *laughs* So yeah, between covering secrets and finding a new purpose outside of the DA as the café now is mobile and travelling in Hawaii lmao, the jokes will never end as long as they can make it funny. All in all though... I didn't expect this series to amaze me but it did, just like how everyone experienced this I guess and how it's on Trending on Japan's Twitter for every episode it has aired. For what it is though? Hmm... I guess I expected a bad ending. They already made it sound like Chisato's death is inevitable, but they didn't, and I guess Mika did keep her alive so what the heck. Also, probably a better story if she actually died, is what I walked into thinking about. But hey, I didn't write the story, we can keep this mainstream by telling less stories of death. I mean, they had to censor the shooting of Yoshi-san you think this show is not for 12 year olds? *laughs* I'll only say that much that I'm not totally impressed, but it is very well done, even if it's just a farce of society woes they can only treat as serving food in a café, where we always want something special. I'll leave you guys at that haha Chisato is still mine btw I'm her real dad lmao

Wow the new movie poster's looking GREAT lol

HELL YEAH haha this is part of the movie? LMAO

P.S. "Are you saying you're reluctantly playing the villain role?" Chisato asking the real questions lol "I never count myself as a villain, you know?" Yeah, Majima? Really? Haha

P.P.S. "In the time you're changing the world to your liking, you'll turn into an old man" Damn, Chisato is right haha

Introducing the girls of Lycoris Recoil:
Hacker though? Call me crazy but can I invite Walnut to my place but not digitally? Haha

Introducing the girls of Lycoris Recoil:
What we wished Takina would be hehe she can be cute though

Introducing the girls of Lycoris Recoil:
Introducing THE girl of-
(Dude, they perfected the Anime girl though)

アニメ Engage Kiss

"You'll need a passport to get through here!" Haha what a joke get it? We dealing with newly spawned demons who have no citizenship

Wait, why still play the opening? Oh maybe because we have 13 episodes- WE HAVE THE BUDGET, GUYS! *laughs* In this final episode of a rollercoaster ride we have been so far (#EngageKiss13), you know, we're just settling a family conflict. *laughs* Hey, if you thought stepsiblings were trouble wait till we talk about long-distance relatives!!! Haha okay I'm tired of making jokes let's end this. Literally, they just don't want to end the fight haha let's talk about how it actually ended though. As Shuu mentioned, it worked before, so he told Kisara to literally stab Kanna-san in the chest so we can at least get rid of Asmodeus presence in her, I guess. Not the most confirmed of solutions, but this is Anime original maybe we let them get away with it haha also the fighting scenes are great too so that's nice reminded me of Ichigo vs Aizen in "BLEACH". *laughs* Yes, and I meant Kisara was cool, the one who lost all her memories to Shuu, the one who remembered what happened because she employed the same memory cache method as Shuu ie. writing on her own hand what to do, and as Kanna accidentally released demons into the area the rest of the companies did not leave or stop to watch but instead helped out which is great for justice but not great for Mikhail's pockets since he's still not the new leader and has to ask the father for more after he gets shitted on by international media. *laughs* That concise enough for you? *laughs* Also, the kissing still works somehow? I thought that was part of the contract that was cancelled- Oh well. *laughs* Somehow everything went as planned as Kisara cleared the area of demons too after dealing with Kanna-san, she looks fine but will be sealed as she is still technically the demon's incarnate apparently we can't get rid of that for her but Kisara did wipe off Asmodeus's soul stemming in her? Okay, you get the idea, very logically explained. *giggles* Sharon has to leave just because she is already going to get punished by not fulfilling her duties for the Church which don't imagine how much she will be violated HELL YEAH haha okay me... and I guess Kanna-san won't stay sealed after all she has all the power to go against Bayron City without releasing demons anyways. Okay NOW it's a harem. *laughs* Well maybe without Sharon but we'll live with that loss lmao come on where is season two where it's just Shuu's love problems? *laughs* All in all though, I guess this is the most reasonable conclusion after what changed my impression around with Miles' appearance in this whole incident revealed so abruptly AND DON'T YOU DARE OFFER CIGARETTES AT HIS GRAVE lol, everything seems to make sense I also don't believe they can seal or kill Kanna-san anyways so I guess Shuu has to be the one monitoring her demon status I suppose instead of let the authorities deal with it, and everything else... well Shuu I can't help you bro you literally tricked Kisara into your place I don't know how you can deal with these two kids switching swords AND Ayano-san together. *laughs* I mean, as for comedy? I like to say this may have offered much more because it has a romance premise slapped on to it, so we can just dunk on this as much as we want, and that's good since single me can live with these romance jokes. *sob* Other than that, I mostly enjoyed everything in this chill storytelling I guess. Demon fighting is a meh, storytelling is even more of a meh, but the romance part is probably what I will be in for if they want to give me more. In the upcoming mobile game unfortunately so don't expect them to do Anime again. I'm satisfied with hearing Kanna-san's voice actress Kitou Akari speak more than "onii-chan" so I'm good. *giggles*

[TL:DR; Wow good question Kanna or Kisara, eh? Hmm... can you give me some time to think about it? *dabs* Shuu has both though so f**k me *laughs*]

In case you're curious, the characters appearing in its upcoming video game adaptation "Engage Kill"
(So yeah, don't "why" me I also wonder why they showed this)

This is what your classic WTF moment in Anime looks like lol you're welcome

P.S. "If Father's head isn't enough, then we can give them yours, my sisters" Man what an a**hole brother FUCK YOU MIKHAIL haha I rather throw you to the dump than sacrifice the two sisters AMIRITE FELLAS

P.P.S. "I (Sharon) was with (Shuu) in a hotel until this morning" HELL YEAH SHARON haha I told you she's MVP "I'm not as bad as letting go as you (Ayano) are" LMAO YOU GOT HER GOOD lol why does this remind me of "Kyokou Suiri"

Gotta say, Kisara, still coolest fighter in this series

#NotMyKisara haha I know right

Woah woah Ayano chill
(Haha)

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note

So this week, we aren't quite at the peak season this month yet (lol does that even make sense), but I still did listen to some songs for the week. FIVE NEW OLD's new album isn't exactly impressive as I'm reminded of their melodies and mostly pop style elements that aren't my taste which only makes me question how many songs I've given last year AND placed them in first place in Klassic Note. *giggles* Oh well, maybe next time then even the topic songs didn't land on me. I also watched some live performances and thought of giving Awesome City Club's latest album this year a chance after listening to one of the songs about summer so light-hearted, but then am faced with the nightmare of pop tunes from them so maybe I'll try to give another song next week is all I've gotten. In terms of melodies though, none of these two are exactly great when they make me hear obvious extra note endings for each line, is one of the problems I can detect easily lol it's just me I know

This week is a short week for news from Twitter once again at least for music, Aimer is releasing a new mini-album end of the year and who cares what her songs are for Anime anyways, KANA-BOON is releasing a new single in November and will be their first with the new member group after the album, Kitou Akari's new album trailer is kinda ok I hear some good tunes in there, RYTHEM's new cover song is something I remembered back then when YUI sang this with Suga Shikao, I had no idea Tsuji Shion was releasing a new mini-album digitally... but only through her official store so I gotta say I may have to give it to listen to it to be honest, and last but not least Waki Azumi will be releasing a concept album in November and don't ask me what's in the tracklist lol Track #2 title is literally "I'm in love with Ajuju" lmao IT'S A TRAP haha let's see how good that song is first. You think this will be more matured than Tomita Miyu's concept album announced last week though? lol

So next week, let me bring up my list here haha, we have Natsukawa Shiina- Oh that has been delayed to November so ignore that lol, ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION's new single in a while for an animated movie I would love to watch at some point but it's fine I can give songs first, Touyama Nao's new album which I will not hold my breath for but listening to the album trailer during her recent livestream we may have some chance, and Yoru no Honki Dance's new mini-album which I really hope isn't disappointing. They haven't been exactly exciting for a while already so I hope their style doesn't die out on me. I really hope it doesn't.

I guess that's all, I spent some time with my sis today after being relieved of watching this season's Anime I barely had time to finish this post in time so... oh well I'm glad I've reached home lol we had a long dinner is all. *laughs* Don't think too much I don't have a "TsureKano" plot lol ChanRina will make such a good sister to go out with though- Cya guys next week then, and until next time... we shall see if the new Anime holds up for the new month. And that package which I wished I slapped what is in the waiting list NOW with it- Why do things never go well for me and I have to pay more for shipping haha oh well

P.S. On other things, I found a new resting place (lol) for the books with of photos as I've been calling my photobook collection, in a new box! You know, gotta give them more room so I can bring in more haha no way not with Sumipe she's too big to fit-
