The Entertainment News 2020 Edition Issue #11

Man, getting bored having to watch all these Anime every week liao lol haha except RikeKoi that one is the best in here so far

Okay, got carried away playing too much Javascript (lol) (visit my Github Page) today and forgot to stop because you know, ask a programmer when he/she will stop after they start. *laughs* Okay, Anime time, and I might be too tired to watch anything new for next season. I mean, there's Kaguya-sama and Attack on Titan already, man. I don't need more shows to watch already tbh

Let's start, shall we? We have a couple more episodes (from a couple more series) left so let's finish them all!! I'm getting tired haha must be work




アニメ Hatena Illusion
"Even Gaugau is getting all friendly with (Makoto), that's not fair" Uh, I mean, Hatena-chan if you want to be friendly with your childhood friend... haha
Okay I'll forgive you if half your reason to watch this series is to hear Hatena-chan moan lol Suzuki Aina I'm not interested in you at all haha your debut album is great though. In this new episode of the devil lol (#HatenaIllusion09), well this might just be the happiest episode in this series yet. Let's talk about it. Firsly, Ema-san sacrificed her Artifact for the kids to stay in the mansion. Well, it's not that simple, but she did ask for Mariah-san to retest the kids so that they can be fit to stay in the mansion. Why go through so much trouble though? I think by this episode we should have known the truth. Firstly, about Jeeves-san. He's an Artifact, as we know now. He's also something stolen from the village, so obviously it's an important piece of treasure even the parents had to protect in order for it to not land into other peoples' hands. But here's the problem: If the parents aren't at home then who's going to protect it? And seeing how powerful Jeeves himself is, only someone better than him should then be allowed to stay within the walls, and thus the test from Mariah. I'll believe so far that the family story on the back end is true mainly because that is what the grandmother did to the couple when they escaped with Jeeves to Japan in the first place. The father didn't put up much of a struggle (lol of course, he has no powers), but the mother probably kept the peace aligned and thus allow the mansion to stay outside of the village. Magical power things, you know. Then, what it took to get this retest. Ema-san had to trade in her Artifact for this second chance, and so if the kids made it, she gets to take it back. She did not consider what happens otherwise though, is the point. The test itself... let's just say it went way better than expected haha. Then again, it's technically three against one even though the opponent was informed of their visit, but the trio took care of the antagonist appropriately and took back the Artifact. Well, we know it's the fat bitc- Then, it's what it took for Mariah-san to even give a chance. Ema-san's Artifact... let's just say it's more than what is given to her by the mother Maeves. It's more than just that, because of her back story. Story goes Ema was abandoned on the streets and with money (hey, whatever man), Maeves paid off the bad guys and took her into custody. I assume from the flashback it's also because whatever Ema's lost parents left for her might have been Artifacts themselves, so the Master Thief decided to take her in since... good chances she can protect the Artifacts (probably not made by her back then) herself. That will make of a good assumption from what we saw when Yumemi managed to fix Ema's brooch after it got damaged during the test. So yeah, it's more than an Artifact to Ema. It's literally her second life at stake, which of course, thanks to the kids (emphasising the plural form here just because), they got it back for her. That might have been the most touching moment in this series yet as Hatena apologised for Ema's sacrifice to such an extent. I would argue it's a good one, and thank goodness Mariah didn't go back on her promise like those other times lol. Lastly, why Mariah-san wouldn't even want to give the kids a chance AT ALL. Yes, call her the devil, but she has her reasons. Mainly, she doesn't want them to go down the path she has experienced before as a kid. What might it be though? I mean, we can safely guess that the family training on this is more than just rough, and considering the kids didn't even have any of that sort of training since their parents left the village, they won't be recognised by the family. Literally, even the father knows. Which is why all this setup just to test if they can even act under duress, upon everything else. I mean, Hatena got serious all of a sudden I don't even know how to react lol. Anyways, Hatena-chan has chosen her path, and probably for the other two, so there's no turning back now. Meanwhile, Makoto and Hatena manage to pull of a magic trick in front of Dina even he? Yes he, can't even do himself. Remember what he said as a challenge to be accepted as apprentice by Gregory the Master? Yeah, they did it, I guess. But Dina is not pleased. So yeah, we might see some fighting again real soon, as bad as the animation quality is- I mean, you can see it for yourself man that's the only thing I can complain about right now that I know the backstory. Whether Dina will cross the boundary of standard magic tricks and touch on Artifacts, we don't know. Hopefully Makoto won't think of him as a challenge haha bye
This is so cute I can even forgive the sub-par drawing oooo kawaiiii
Literally, this fat b*tch is the evil villian that never dies lol
P.S. "Nameless Lover" Literally everyone's name in a gal video game lmao prove me wrong
P.P.S. "Who is it (the opponent at the mansion)?" I mean, it's a woman with tits, who do you think that is?? *laughs* I know it can be anybody or Mariah even Ema-san too lol

アニメ Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun
"That daikon... is about a four" Okay you don't go chuunoge my dear Yashiro-chan haha then again I may have bad tastes lol sorry girl (yes, subs f**ked up, see P.S.^)
Is this how you deal with apparitions if they are hands? Challenge them to arm wrestling? What if you lose? Your hand joins them? *laughs* Come on, I just scarred by knee I don't want to lose an arm lmao. In this new episode (#HanakoKun10) we see the evil side of Aoi-chan. Yes, EVERYTHING. *laughs* Wait, isn't this about Yashiro? Okay, back to her first. Story goes that as Aoi-chan (kawaii Aoi-chan, please) (haha) clears up the books in the Gardening Club, she found out that all their photos have weird arms on them. Hmm... that's weird. I don't think Hanako-kun doesn't know of it, but funny how it took so long, but yeah, he thought those were little than normal apparitions so just fulfilling their wishes will chase them away. I guess he's not wrong in saying that, since most of them disappeared after being in contact, but one of them... so, introducing one of the other Seven Wonders who haven't shown up yet, the Hell of Mirrors. It's... just a bunch of mirrors, just like the one Yashiro went through to get into its Boundary. The hands weren't at fault, no, but seeing Mitsuba still inside the world, good chances he's at fault. *laughs* Moving on, the two walked around the world, and... man is this Seven Wonder a literal a-hole. haha. According to Hanako (and evil Aoi-chan haha Aoi-chan no~) this Seven Wonder reflects the weaknesses of living beings. So if you are... basically none of them because there aren't people without weaknesses, you'll leave in peace. But since everyone has their own weakness they are afraid to face (by the way mine is-), so it'll show up right in front of them. And as expected, Hanako guessed Yashiro's is likely about her legs lol. I mean, even Mitsuba is sh*tting on her too, what can I say? (But seriously, when the ending theme animation played I can't help but see her thick legs lol) However, Mitsuba here seems to have lost all of his memory (we'll get into that in a moment), and can't get out of this world. Being experienced in this (lol), Yashiro took him to find this Boundary's Yorishiro, as she has learnt. Sadly, the mirror got in her away on her ascend towards the top, and... you can guess the rest. Yashiro isn't exactly depressed, but you know, that's where the Seven Wonder showed himself. So basically his motive is to take over living beings (by technically making them half dead I guess) (yeah nice try bro but Yashiro is tied to your boss), so he asks his minions to do it. I'm not going to describe how gross it is since pretty much everything is to ensure you can puke without showing you much blood (I mean, I look at my scraped knee and I want to puke already lol), and with Hanako's(?) appearance it got worse. Real worse. Okay, not actual Hanako by the name of Amane. The other one. Yes, Tsukasa, can't remember his name. He breaks the shit out of the Seven Wonder in one hit, and confronts, wait, not Yashiro but Mitsuba, saying he was hopeless because he needed help. Okay, couple of things before we move on to next week with a conclusion for this Seven Wonder. Firstly, Mitsuba's appearance once again. Remember the last time he got... well, ripped off literally by Hanako after transforming into a beast following his true motive being revealed by Kou-kun (that idiot, haha) and controlled by the broadcast room and Tsukasa, who technically died again after he died without anyone noticing him? Now with Tsukasa here it'll be no wonder he's here since he probably is plotting on something under his orders. Then, is Hanako's apprehensiveness in confronting one of his underlings ie. The Third of Seven Wonders in this school. Probably not because he's a perv and once he steps in the Seven Wonder will call him a freaking hentai (lmao) (you don't have to go in there and I can tell you that too haha), but more of that if he steps in it'll make the Seven Wonder stronger. Does that mean it'll amplify strengths too on top of weaknesses? I guess we'll know by next week. Meanwhile, I just hope for all our sakes that Yashiro won't get crushed like a daikon again (ugh) and we might see another confrontation ahead of us real soon. Someone just stop Yashiro she is thinking too much into... whatever she is thinking about ikemen haha
This is so ironic I can't even
These Photoshop skills are AMAZING I don't even know which is real haha
P.S. Those album photos, man... we go back just ONE year back and Yashiro is even cuter than the Mokke haha who said the Mokke were the the cutest in this series lmao
P.P.S. "This is my fourth time in a Boundary. With my knowledge and experience..." Okay Yashiro don't rush to put that in your resume lol
[Okay Yashiro's reactions are great so here's more daikon cuteness haha I miss Sakura-chan already lmao]
When she is trying to tell you you're scaring her as a bf lol
And then she realises you're not the ikemen she thought when she was chatting with you online haha
[^Just to clarify, the Seven Wonder is saying Yashiro's looks are "below average" and Mitsuba is "above average" at best. The subtitles had to put it in scale so it won't sound weird, I guess? I mean, you can just say "below average" I'm not offended in any way did you even watch Anime "Chio-chan"? Haha]

アニメ Rikei ga Koi ni Ochita no de Shoumei Shite Mita.
"(The sunset) is pretty, isn't it?" And then I see Himuro and I'm like- Okay okay Kanade-chan you're still best girl I promise haha
"My desire is... not because I like (Yukimura)" Okay you know it is so Himuro stop lying to yourself you science nerd. *laughs* In this rather serious episode of presentations (#RikeKoi10) we... I hope you guys have attended university before because I have. *dabs* And if you end up like Kanade-chan who can't even get the presentations from their long titles... it's fine no one cares just do a quick Google most presentations are based on existing theories because we're too dumb to Einstein a new one haha that's why they are so long unless you're Yukimura. *looks at Yukimura* Ugh, unless you're him, apparently. Anyways, let's talk. Not love, but science. Man, I really thought we left that a long way already, but I guess not. So, since I'm in engineering too, this will be easy to understand- No it's not! *laughs* So, let's talk what is in this episode before we do some reality checks. In total, we're presented (literally) three types of students in presentations, mainly people who don't prepare enough (I'm close to that haha), people who succeed but it's totally different to whatever extent no one knows lol (not Yukimura presenting btw), and Kanade-chan. Focus here is of course, on the last presentation mainly because Kanade-chan is scared. Not scared of being drilled by Yukimura, no, but scared of screwing things up. Surprisingly, she did really well. Compared to the first guy who can't say no if he really doesn't know (we'll talk about that later but suffice it to say Yukimura is right), and Torasuke which I must say from a last minute research topic based on his interests is so good he won't end up like the first guy, is probably still better off because at least he got something to say, especially when he's real knowledgeable at it. Adult games, I mean. *laughs* For Kanade-chan though? Thus far we only know she is good at TSP (no RikeKuma go away), and that is as far as she has done. For her presentation though? I mean, ignoring that emotional struggle which we'll cover later, it's literally borrowing on the couple's experience (and experiments) at the amusement park and talking about best paths to take when on a date with her own improvisation, and somehow it sold real well to everyone present. I'm not going to Google now to tell you if there is any sort of research as of this episode (good chances it's not, since not everyone is Yukimura, so if you are at your final year in university why not consider), but yeah, she did a really good job there. I supposed the guys from Ikeba Lab probably scored way higher than most of the students who presented that day, so that's great. Okay, #RealityCheck, ladies and gentlemen, to the best of my knowledge in case really no one knows about such stuff and I live in another world where presentations and Himuro exist haha. It was hard to hold back any jokes from the above, and here I shall present my experience in doing my final year thesis (project) during university. According to the lessons from where I am that also teach you how to communicate effectively (hey I don't have a Yukimura to breathe down my throat, okay?), let's talk about what is close to reality. Well, basically most of them mentioned in the episode. The Torasuke calling someone baldie thing you can ignore haha. So, to do an effective presentation about a research topic. Number one: Come up with research that extends boundaries. Which basically means, take on something existing in research, and come up with your ideas and prove it well. So, taking Kanade's presentation, it's TSP plus something else, so creating a time-based TSP since (if you go read up yourself) TSP is a timeless research topic. Assuming all points are independent of time, you can draw a best route from Point A to Point B. That is, if reality doesn't exist. This is already setup to point out a number of things one would do to prove a worthy research topic which include purpose (why would you do this) (for Torasuke it's a little... but you know), interest in field (so past research, unless you're Einstein and can think of Relativity yourself) (no one expects that level of ingenuity btw) and your contribution to this field of research. So Kanade did all of them: talk about how weak current TSP research is in solving complicated issues (I know, dating amirite?? lol), proved that she only found one which went a step further (likely that one Prof's research, I mean, look at his reaction man), and proposed a combination of theories which will bring this to a different area of research. Creating research possibilities, is the ultimate goal of such a thing in university. It's to encourage research into topics that concern. So, my experience. I would argue that mine is pretty close to the first guy in reality (haha I chose the wrong Prof or topic, I don't know) (yes, I chose him he didn't choose me), but in the end I pulled it off because I kind of pulled everything else together and half-Kanade the presentation and... well there were only two people present in the presentation. *laughs* So, all in all, this episode is a good reality check (besides the ripped Profs, and the baldie thing lol) of how presentations work in university, so in case you haven't experienced one yet... Don't, just don't; go work. *laughs* Next episode though... did you see me talk about Himuro being desperate about Yukimura at the start of the episode? Yeah, it's confrontation time, bro. Especially when you hugged my beloved Kanade-chan too!!?? You're going to be doing years in jail man I tell you haha bye AH I'M SO GLAD I DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT AGAIN lol I meant presentation I want to fall in love again I really do
MFW I don't know... anything and everything haha
Man, that Prof really stands out in the crowd lol Ikeda
P.S. Okay I understand, if you need like, a full voice recording of desperate Amamiya Sora (who voices Himuro) in a deep voice... you can just clip the whole front part, no offense. *laughs* Mmmmmm TEN-CHAN!! Haha
P.P.S. "Pretty much every student here has played a game before right? Even adult gamers exist too!" Okay Kousuke you don't have to mention that haha no really
[Sorry for a #RealityCheck I wanted to write my life in here but I guess I shouldn't write too much lol go read back on the intros of The Entertainment News between February and April 2018 if you want more of it haha]
Himuro, man...

アニメ Kyokou Suiri
"Steel Lady Nanase is not made up. She's a real ghost" Wow Kotoko-chan, you go extremes, huh. *laughs*
So Solution 1 is lying, and Solution 2 is telling the truth? Well it's also lying but now we gotta make people believe on the supernatural? Okay, that's going to be tough either way to be honest. In this new episode (#KyokouSuiri10) where we are at Solution 2 out of 4 if you remember, and guess what we are covering TWO solutions?? Man, this Anime knows its time is up lol we still got at least two episodes, chill. So, the progress so far. It's not much. *laughs* Okay, we know that. But is Rikka-san just taking her time or is she getting desperate to stop Kotoko-chan from progressing further? So firstly, instead of going for a more realistic standpoint to say ghost Nanase doesn't exist, we shall say she exists. So, for Kotoko's argument now, she says that Nanase is indeed alive, as a ghost, and found out about the truth in the afterlife from the father that it was a trap. Which means the father made her feel bad about herself all this time. Again, the amount of people who will believe it's a ghost who did it is pretty much the same as the amount of people who will not. Especially when you have to explain how she beat up the Judo guy Terada with a steel beam, really. (Ugh, haha) But just as a reminder in which we were closer to this week from last week, we can't really say a certain someone created this forum and wanted people to believe she's a ghost brought alive by rumour. Yeah, we can't say that. *laughs* But what we CAN say is that it's someone else. Someone in real life who did it. Probably someone who planned for this. I would argue that the father planning for his death and directly pointing it at his own daughter sounds like a stretch (haha sorry Kotoko-chan I promise you I'm not on Rikka-san's side), but it can happen, especially if you watched those serial dramas haha. Still, Kotoko makes a case that it's the father that did it, set it up for Nanase to feel bad, making her death worthwhile until she realises the truth and "came back" to tell the living what's up. Well... sure. *laughs* Problem is, it cannot be definite. Steel Lady Nanase's actions right now are of a barbarian, without much motive and intelligence of its own. That, and the violence itself, is hard for people to believe that a ghost is back to tell us the truth. I mean, you could've just told us. *laughs* Or you know, haunt someone's dreams or something. So, Solution 3. Kotoko now says that someone made her up. Hey, not reality check but no, we're not talking about Rikka-san because I don't think we can since she will stop Kotoko almost immediately lol, but yeah, it's someone else. Nanase now therefore is back to haunt on her sister? Hey, remember the sister? Yeah, she seems suspicious. Let's interrogate the shit out of her haha. Okay, this one might not be tough, and technically works better than Solution 2 because we have a real human to blame now. *laughs* Problem is, we don't know who it is. It can be the sister, who might have set it up on her after hearing about the father's death, and then feigning ignorance when she found out that her sister committed suicide. I mean, which one is more believable, eh? So pretty much all the evidence available on the police might be sent from her, that body might be just a double which seems unlikely unless you can replicate those tits- But it seems more like (haha) someone around the sister wanted her to not get paranoid of Nanase's death and thus, created this rumour known as Steel Lady Nanase. To be honest? This one seems unlikely too, but the people in the forums are buying it though. Like, someone else is behind helping the sister? Maybe. Or maybe it's just some weird fan that doesn't want Nanase to die away, and is making her a serial killer, this might be more likely haha. Hey, I can make up fiction myself too lol. Again, bringing back to Kotoko's overall strategy up till now with all these talk: it's not about which direction this discussion brings us, it's how far AND how fast we can run in any direction. As long as we can run fast enough to not get Rikka-san grab any reality that is different and beneficial to her, we will win. However, we might have a bigger problem coming. Remember when Kotoko said that Rikka won't step in to influence in the forums? It might happen sooner than we think. So before the episode ended, someone in the forums (in the form of Rikka-san maybe) rebutted that to calm someone down it's unlikely that revenge is the option to ease the sister off someone's death or fear of her own death, which makes sense and would likely happen more in serial drama too lol. With Rikka-san's direct arrival to the discussion also created a bigger problem for Kuro-san (remember this guy? lol) in which that... he can't grab a future close to him anymore. Uh oh. I doubt this will kill him since (1) he's immortal he probably just can't change the future and (2) he will be able to once Kotoko brings out another argument to turn things around. Hey, again, it's about who can run in any direction the fastest. And with the one solution from Kotoko left, let's hope this will send her flying like a cheetah to somewhere out in the universe and beyond so that people will stop thinking about this dead woman I CAN'T SHE'S GOT BIG BOOBS lol we'll see how it goes next week.
MFW I realised Nanase's cup size got reduced because it got flattened by the steel beam lol
(Wouldn't the beam bounce back up though? lmao)
And that's why you shouldn't die too early and/or not get a portrait of you taken feeling sad lol
P.S. *Steel Lady Nanase shakes head* That's her telling Kotoko to stop lol
P.P.S. "This story might be true" Haha yeah Kotoko-chan I know right?? We don't even have to fake it it's so real already lol
[The reality? If I had to guess it's likely Solution 2 where Kotoko says her dad did it, but she wouldn't have the vengeance to come back and haunt society mainly because considering her easy-going and rather laid back personality she would desire death as punishment for her popularity instead. I mean, you know her will to live is weak if she didn't dodge a falling steel beam]

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Hmm, not much this week so let's talk about it. TrySail's new single is... well firstly it's double A-side which were both Anime "Madoka Magica" theme songs (ugh) so it can't be good haha (I better take that back I remembered 2011 already so), so I gave one anyways. By the way, same guy who wrote the two songs here also wrote ClariS' new single's topic song AND upcoming Asakura Momo's new album topic song which I said I liked the preview. This is not going to go well haha. Humbreader's 1st album is finally out on Apple Music so I took some time to give a listen to it and... boy am I disappointed considering like, anewhite and Band Harrassment did way better than them. Hmm... this might be hard to give just in general. Heck, I might just give a couple by next week anyways.

In news surrounding Twitter and only Twitter because if we go any further there's the coronavirus lmao, FLOWER FLOWER's topic song for their upcoming album end of the month is... interesting to say the least, SHE's released a new music video for their upcoming album which... meh (haha), Gotch released a new song after 3 years since his last work (other than his band Ajikan), Sambomaster released a new song for their 20th anniversary and tribute album which isn't what I wanted to be honest, TrySail is doing a livestream two weeks from now for their new single (yay) (yes this one is just for me haha), Sangatsu no Phantasia aka "sanpan" (haha) released new songs from time to time which will no doubt become an album soon in which then I will review, and Kugimiya Rie is releasing a mini-album in April. Yes, Shana-chan's voice actor. The last time she did it was in 2011. I can prove that I've given two of her songs right now with that music library I mentioned above just key in her name in the artist title field. *proud face*

For next week... since Numrakua Manami's best album is out on Apple Music I'll listen to the whole thing (hopefully not at work) again and try to give as many songs I can before we forget about her forever haha. Otherwise... I guess I'll try to give Humbreaders a listen again- I did say I needed a break stop asking me for new songs to listen *laughs*




Okay, I'm done. I have to update the "music libray" later. (GitHub Page, get it?) (link on top, just click to the top button) WE ARE, FIVE MORE DAYS TO ANIMAL CROSSING NEW HORIZONS thank goodness I've got my time off from work ready so I can- Then again I probably won't play the moment it's out like most people mainly because it'll look weird in time as I found out that after the first day which is tutorial you will start in a bad time. And 11PM Singapore time might not be a good time to start chopping down trees haha. So, according to online sources on start time, I'll just run the update the moment it's out and then NOT PLAY (I know, I'm a madman), go sleep, and start Friday refreshed and ready to fly to that unnamed island. Until next time... I'm regretting to name my island "Lion City" as a joke to my country and setting the island theme song the national anthem (lol) so I'll think of something else by then haha bye

P.S. Is it just me or is the weather so hot these days? Or maybe I'm recovering from a weak immune system usually at this time of year I'll be snuggling into a blanket lol

Thursday 12 March 2020

Life is great without choices. Because it sucks once you lose the ability to decide.

I mean, my mom is nothing to pity about. She's selfish, she sides her friends, she doesn't respect the family on any decisions or critique any of us might have. She's the mother though, and she still owns half the house, so if she wants to flip the house for renovation, not like me who has just started to work and gained some respect in the company can understand what it feels to not be listened when you cannot argue with your mother since she doesn't care.

That, I guess I'll live with to realise once I move up the corporate ladder eventually. Eventually.

The Entertainment News 2020 Edition Issue #10

Well, this was quite a week. And that's how a fall from the bicycle will ruin your weekend. Well, I ruined it for myself so whatever haha

As you can see above (I promise no injury gore shots so don't go mature rating this blog), I have a scraped knee so it hurts to walk, so I'm staying at home all day to... not watch Anime apparently the mom brought her friends over to the home. *sigh* I don't know. My family issues are difficult. *laughs* Let's do this before they come back for Round 2 lol ah shit they're back haha

[12 more days to Animal Crossing New Horizons HELL YEAH haha I need to come up with a town name that is dumb but isn't lol FYI I named by first character in Stardew Valley "Jerk" lmao. Oh don't worry I recently named my Japanese Harvest Moon remake farm "Grandpa's Farm Farm" haha they didn't warn me when they appended the last word]




アニメ Hatena Illusion
"Doing so is also on consideration for you" Okay Jeeves-san, where do they live now? They haven't even worked yet bro you making them rich kids homeless now? lol
In this new episode of "Family Matters"... lol okay again, I didn't expect to drop into this fiasco where the mother only appears as an illusion or in a flashback haha. In this new episode though (#HatenaIllusion08), we have a bunch of people who just don't like how our main characters are living now. Hmm... dear author do you even have a backup plan for when they fail in life? *laughs* Okay, hopefully so because things aren't looking that great on any of them now. But it would seem we have something to look forward to here, and it's all taking shape, unlike Yumemi-chan's skills in making Artifacts BOOM GOT HER haha. (Also TIL you can just destroy an Artifact by physically destroying it lol) Firstly, why Mariah-san can do whatever she wants with the Hoshisato family. Because everyone knew what happened. How though? And why the big secret though? For not knowing the answer to any of those, it seems like we can't even progress because we really have no idea about why any of them can never tell the kids what actually happened in the actual home. Maybe the mother was truly kidnapped at the old home of the grandmother. We don't know. What we do know is, all of them around the house, including Mamoru, Jeeves and Ema-san included, probably can't do anything about it. I mean, if they can save the woman this will all be over. Or if they did then someoene's gonna die so thank goodness for not that ending haha. So, despite all these, the kids are kind of fooling around and finding ways to overpower Mariah to no effect and almost destroying the house, which continues to power her reasons for them not being able to stay in the mansion due to their lack of power. Problem is again, even if they can't control, then why chase them out? They not family? Or must people be skilled in order to live in such a mansion? (Maybe because it's the mother that has been protecting them this whole time but you're actually supposed to be skilled to live inside a mansion of the family?) Sometimes, this series don't make much sense, but I think we might have an idea in the second half. In a couple of flashbacks from Ema-san, we can see that she, along with Jeeves-san, have been around for the family serving the Hoshisato family for a while, and since the kids not being skilled in their Artifacts is a problem, then I guess the solution is to teach them. Kind of like how in "BLEACH" Ichigo doesn't know sh*t and he gets into a crash course and saved the world within a couple of months. So, Ema chose to ask Jeeves for help to train them, for now specifically Hatena. How though? Turns out, Jeeves is part of the mansion, and being an Artifact himself, probably fought more battles than most of the generals in recent history lol. But sadly having embed the powers from the family, he can't really fight too long. You know, OP issues lol but hey, Hatena will be dead by the time he's done with her so whatever haha. Okay, how it all come to this, you may ask? But I would argue that it's because everyone is hiding something. From Mariah about what happened to the family specifically that made anyone have such an authority to influence the mansion itself, to even Mamoru agreeing to the matter and technically avoiding the issue as he sees Gregory... everyone is hiding the truth from them. And us viewers too, in retrospect. Which is probably what is pissing me off right now; most action shows should've already dropped a hint episodes ago; just look at "Hanako-kun" below. What is more irritating though, is how everyone is reacting to this. As of now or up till now, it has always been Mariah VS the kids, and that's just hard to watch. Which is why Hatena kept mentioning why is it just them and her, because it's as if the rest aren't involved. But I guess with the end of this episode and some resolve of Ema-san wanting to end Hatena-chan (lol) (I meant her suffering), we might see some progress. Hey, I know this series may not have an ending, but please tell me Maeves-san is okay, please. On top of all these of course, we hardly know about Artifacts. We know they can go berserk if handled badly, we know they can be used in basic function by anyone which will probably explain how that fat b*tch be heating Hatena-chan up a couple of episodes ago lol, and it really seems like it's not that safe, but is it though? Why is this show making reality checks so real I need to stop thinking about magic girl Anime and not compare how great those are with respect to this haha. All in all, I want to see stuff happen, whether it's fighting or plot development with this shitty drawing because I'm getting bored. Even that swimming pool part won't get me hard now. Come on Anime; I know you have a trick up your sleeve; Please use it sooner than later before I leave like Gregory did so wait Makoto did not show him anything?? Ugh this show man...
Okay combat Jeeves-san is cool, I'll give you that
Yumemi-chan be MVP because she is so much cuter compared to Hatena I mean JUST LOOK AT THIS hehe
P.S. "I want to do (magic) using my own abilities (without relying on Artifacts)" Haha you are better than Mamoru already lol Gregory be like
P.P.S. "Just telling you, I don't approve you of being an apprentice" I don't care how you think Dina I'm the main guy I will become a magician somehow lol
[I just hope this series doesn't end with a worse ending than what I see in BLEACH ie. suddenly someone is going to have a say in everything and all will be resolved in an instant. This story here has not proved itself to be logical up till now]
I don't know how this could be done better but man.
It looks better sped up over here though haha


アニメ Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun
"Hey, have you heard? There's a boy who looks just like Hanako-kun" Wow this is the most elaborate of an intro to an episode in this series EVER haha
Haha is that Yashiro playing an idol game? Hey she the same as us. *laughs* I mean, you know you are a daikon, right? *laughs* Okay jokes about lovely Yashiro aside, let's talk about this new episode. In this new episode (#HanakoKun09) woah are we introduced to the bad guys real quick. I mean, if Yashiro isn't that dunb dumb enough (sorry, dumb typo) to get ambushed by the other two, who knows what worse things might happen to our girl haha. And we're invited to a tea party too? Come on, we girls know that in a tea party you NEVER stop eating and drinking and talking lol ask how Cinderella's stepsisters came about haha. So yeah, Yashiro got... kidnapped, is the intro to this episode. Hey, it's all well planned, what can I say? *giggles* Firstly, someone from another class is finding her. I mean, a male student?? What?? Is this an alternate world of Yashiro Nene where she gets laid- Yeah, just saying. *laughs* The guy is Natsuhiko, and as we have seen him from last episode... ignoring the fact that he might be an apparition himself, he's a senpai in the school. He asks Yashiro out (yeah right), she follows him (yeah, no really) and... she gets splashed with a bucket of water. Yeah, what did I tell you? It may be too elaborate a plot considering how the bad guys also didn't do much to her, but yeah, she got baited by them real fast here. Well, Sakura-chan didn't intend this to happen, but hey, a climatic entry doesn't hurt right? *looks at author* So, she ended up becoming a fish, as we have known if half-human her comes into contact with water. Well, a lot of water. It's easier to transport her this way, I guess? Sadly, it's destination is to a Boundary. A Boundary, where the bad guys are at. Sakura-chan introduces herself to be a senpai in this school and currently in a contract of what seems to be evil Hanako and I'm still not wrong, because now we know it's a twin. So yes, Amane and Tsukasa are twins. So according to this, we can already deduce from the stuff I said last week on what might happen. But instead, we get the long story drawn since Yashiro ended up enjoying the tea party and complaining the sh*t out of Hanako Amane which I'm sure Tsukasa already knows most of it but we still don't know something. Don't be tricked too, everyone, for we still don't know the truth. Someone was murdered by another, remember. Still, half an hour later, Yashiro didn't really ask on it, and ended up trapped in the world and being sent into another world between worlds, I guess? In her desperate effort in praying Hanako to save her lol, I mean, it worked, to say the least. Hanako appears in a radio inside of that world between worlds, and instructs her on how to leave. Okay, this might be the episode already, so I hope you're ready for some analysis. Firstly, acknowledgement of Hanako as Seven Wonder and how fast Yashiro came out of danger unscathed. Okay, she did get ambushed but other than that as she said, they were "nice" to her considering she is an innocent party so good chances she won't die anyways (she is technically dead, by the way), but also how Natsuhiko understands what Hanako was talking about. So yeah, that is still plenty we don't understand. If Natsuhiko says this is playing from Sakura-chan or Tsukasa maybe, means it'll be over if they deal with Hanako? Or eventually they will be let out of the world between worlds? Then again, it didn't take long for Hanako to save the maiden as long as she enters a fragment of his past, it would seem. Funny to think that maybe Hanako has absolute power of this school premises, which is why the "bad guys" had to resort to schemes to take Hanako down. As of now, I don't even know if they are anywhere close to friend or foe. Tsukasa did turn a ghost into a monster-level apparition, and then on the other hand did just not kill the girl. I mean, if we get rid of the assistant then it's easier to deal with the one guy, right? Next, we might get some psychological fights incoming. Considering Yashiro knows nothing about Hanako thus far even after all this flashback and stuff, her lack of knowledge of the situation may get Hanako himself into trouble as he tries to deal with the impending danger that is happening within the school, in case you need to remember what happened in a nutshell. Then begs the question, and sorry for saying that this plot is better than Hatena Illusion lol: What is Sakura-chan's motive here? Remember Hanako instructs Yashiro to work for him, well mainly as bait so that he can control the apparitions appearing within the school to some extent, like that love tree for example. If Sakura is doing the opposite and helping as a broadcaster to make monsters in the school, then what is their motive? Destroying the school? I doubt so, but to just create chaos until Amane can face his twin brother again? Maybe? I don't know. For now, let's follow and see what happens, because we might get an answer soon, for the next episode hints at direct confrontation of the two Hanakos (lol) in a room of mirrors. Someone please explain to me what has happened so far, please. *laughs*
[If you need a difference check on subtitles because I can listen to Japanese now, Natsuhiko actually said "she won't die" as Tsukasa freaked fish Yashiro out because... she has mermaid scales, and the bond with her and Hanako makes her immortal. Now you know subs are bullshi-]
LOL Yashiro even your idol game guy looks like Hanako still don't admit you like this type?
MFW someone says I'm going out with some ugly f-
P.S. "What's with these clothes? They're cute!!" lol Yashiro you are technically being kidnapped already but I agree "chotto eroi" haha
P.P.S. "Hanako-kun's girlfriend!!" lmao I don't think it's wrong but sorry Sakura-chan haha
["I just imagine he's not here" Oh Sakura-chan please step on me haha wrong show IT'S LITERALLY HER VERSUS DAIKON haha]
I don't know who to choose!! haha
(Because I reviewed her voices' photobook before...)
I don't know who to choose!! haha
(Because I also reviewed her voices' photobook before- different link btw)

アニメ Rikei ga Koi ni Ochita no de Shoumei Shite Mita.
"I'll have your saliva now." "No, not when we're here" Okay Yamamoto-san stop writing on your notepad haha
If you thought Aika was walking in a real life airport, you're not dreaming we saw that too haha. In this new episode (#RikeKoi09) of nerd shit... it's the long awaited BIKINI EPISODE!! YES IT'S HERE I'm so going to jump on Himuro like how she jumped on Yukimura but in my dreams lol. So yeah, we're not going to the beach, by the way. We're going to a science conference- I mean LOOK AT THEM!! Kanade-chan say something!! Ugh haha. "Playing with dolls on the beach is new" lmao Yukimura don't shit on Torasuke you're not much better. So, beach time, I guess! We go to Okinawa for the lab's training camp, but we know we don't want to be seeing just science work in Okinawa. What are we, science-type nerds? *laughs* But man, was this a good episode. Everything in essence about the series is back with another hit, and it all went well. Yes, even that one guy who hit up on Himuro haha. Firstly, Yukimura sitting on a plane. I mean, is he desperate or what, as he tries to do physical contact with Himuro on the plane ie. saliva sampling but seriously, you can be more discrete. Did anyone teach him that when he was a kid? You can be stealthy in everything you do in public, like collecting saliva, hugging, kissing, f**king... Well, you get the idea haha. And Himuro desperately wants it too, so Yukimura you should have done it. Discretion is key, if you need someone to tell you that. Some would argue that doing things discrete is a fetish in itself. *wink* Amongst many missed opportunities, we see many more in this episode as the guys settle down in their short stay, and enjoyed the beach. Well, I mean, if enjoying is running laps around the ocean like the Prof then I guess, haha. And also, someone paid for the high budget hotel, so thanks, poor author haha. But seriously, Yamamoto will make a story in real life even if she has to make a 4P out of the others besides the main couple- MOVING ON!! *laughs* And thus, we should give some credit to Yamamoto's hotel budget the main couple's interactions this episode (lol), as they try out ways to do some exposure play here (sorry watch too much porn liao my knowledge stretches through horizons haha) including a private session behind the rocks. You know, where the REAL rocks do things. *laughs* It... was hard for Yukimura. And I like how I am already jumping the gun by saying you won't get too much besides Himuro's RACK haha but yeah, he backed off, and in the eyes of everyone else, they started thinking of ways to maximise "skinship", as they say. I'm not going to reference whatever kamasutra thing they may have talked about or Ibarada's craze for BL (lol please stop), but suffice it to say nothing happened. Well, might still be enough material for Yamamoto though haha. Embarrassment will make of good writing material anyways, to be honest. They played some watermelon splitting using complex planes (ugh) (yes, I know you can only know the angle from that; "x + iy" amirite?) and without insulting how weak Yukimura is, uh, I mean, that reflector plate lol. And Yuuichi, (yep, that one guy that likes to hit on women specifically all the main girls in this series) who is also on the island, tried to chat up Himuro and Kanade to find out it's them again and ran haha, and went for Ibarada and got knocked out by Torasuke, haha. I mean, you will never win that poor fellow in "Seitokai Yakuindomo" lmao (you know who I'm referring to, thanks to the sensei despertae f**k lmao), but still, he's just out of luck. Going to Torasuke, I still don't get why Ibarada still can't get any real emotions out of her with regards to Torasuke being like, you know, manly to her in danger. I mean, it's not really danger even if Yuuichi grabs her hand, but you know, gotta blame someone, Schrodinger. *laughs* But yeah, Ibarada, you no appreciation for this idiot to any extent? He might be your childhood friend and you have shifted on him all his life but somehow, at this point I would expect some appreciation, but her tears so far is just shed because she laughed too hard lol. Oh well, I guess not in this Anime. All in all, thank goodness they didn't do nothing but experiments but I think Yamamoto may have gotten her money's worth out of this trip haha I hope your next work sells which is this series maybe lmao. Next episode though, is where we get to see presentations? Ugh, I thought I can get out of this outside work but to be honest? It has been some time since I saw one (don't jinx it) (haha), so if I need to pick whose work is better Kanade-chan can just stand there and I'll give her full marks haha dear other Profs go easy on her, yes? Torasuke you can beat him up haha I wished my FYP presentation was in Okinawa lmao bye
[Since they are so many long shots I'll do a couple]
This is so cute I can't even
When your friends come to visit your new home and you two are alone and you forgot to lock the door lol
P.S. "It's because palm trees tend to grow in subtropical climates (like Okinawa), isn't it?" Okay smart aleck no one asked for your answer haha
P.P.S. Yeah you bet Yamamoto paid the rest of the money for the hotel so she can see two people kiss again haha thanks author we know you thought of everything lmao
I promise you this is the ONLY way Yukimura will leave Himuro wet haha

アニメ Kyokou Suiri
lol if you are Saki-san and dumb enough (haha) to think that Rikka-san isn't also doing something to manipulate the discussion? Okay maybe you're not Kotoko-chan level yet haha
This is as intense of a fight you will see in this series ever, so hold on to your seats, everyone. Saki-san being commentator is better than any sports game imo haha. In this new episode (#KyokouSuiri09) we are set to take down Steel Lady Nanase, or how she has been named after (Rikka-san you piece of-), we finally get into the debate which will hopefully settle this once and for all. Well, almost. Kotoko-chan will try though, whatever it takes. She's got a long night to play this out, and so is everyone else, so let's see how far we can go. Firstly, Kotoko-chan talks about pushing responsibility to a virtual killer. We have talked about this before in past episodes so go watch those, but suffice it to say we have to make this a murder, and not a ghost who haunts and kills people like what many have believed. Riding on Tereda's death (RIP bro), Kotoko-chan used his case to show that there needs to be someone smarter instead of stronger than Terada in order to take him down, and this requires much effort in the back end. But maybe talking about how a murder takes this much setup just to get rid of him the same way a ghost might be doing to kill someone may be a bit of a stretch (sorry Kotoko-chan I'm not on your side in the forums now lol), so yeah as much as this doesn't make much sense, it still kind of works in her favour since again, all we need is enough people to think it's right. And after a good amount of explaining (shoutout to the one guy who said TL:DR; haha), she managed to convince people that Terada might be killed by someone who possesses strong feelings for the detective and wants to kill him over probably something superficial like, he got a girlfriend and it's not her or something lol. So to be honest, Kotoko-chan is explaining past events as humane as she can, as a Lord of the supernatural. And in retrospect, she chose a feasible killer to convince all, a woman, to kill him with wit instead of force since we know Terada-san is a Judo expert himself. Reflexes though? Hey, who knows? It's a dark night at an abandoned gas station. Also, if you think she is going to make Saki-san the scapegoat you are not alone because Saki-san thinks that too. With association to someone who is close to him preferrably at work and knows a lot of his behaviour and movements, Saki-san sounds like the perfect person to point blame at this point, so yeah if I were here I'll freakout too lol we know girl it's not you. Also, it won't be you because Kotoko-chan can't hold this lie for too long either. Because now, it's answering questions about this lie. *laughs* Kotoko then now has to hold on her stand by trying to go around the many loopholes many may have found about this "murder" and rather believing fiction (what a bunch of idiots haha) that a ghost killed someone which sorry for saying this, can't even happen in the first place. Okay, this is Anime so I'll forgive you if you think otherwise. *laughs* Which brings us to the main question with respect to what we know about the only two survivors of the Sakuranogawa experiment that, Rikka-san is also manipulating this discussion behind the scenes, dying time and again (remember last week's GIF? haha sorry) if needed to change the tides slightly to her favour and that'll bring Kotoko back to square one. Because if you see, let's say politics now is left wing, and someone said a lot of left wing stuff to make people wanna vote right wing, what do you think the eventual results would be? Then, all it takes is for Kuro-san to also take the extreme side of the future polar opposite to Rikka-san's, and they'll be done. Problem is, it's not working as expected, and that might still be a problem after what we have seen so far. All in all... they're going to one solution per episode, huh. *laughs* Oh okay at least we get an episode discount we presenting two more next episode. *sigh* Cya guys next week haha
Looks a lot like Saki-san, isn't it?
Haha I mean, they could've given her long hair but
[Don't ask for postscripts it's either intense action or intense mystery talk I can't make a joke on that okay besides Saki-san being the culprit haha that was a good one]

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Well, this is probably one of two weeks we'll get something out of this month, so let's talk all about it, I guess. Man, the week after next is going to be rough as in I'm going to play Animal Crossing all weekend haha. Okay, songs. Firstly, SID's new single is up for review but I haven't given the online order yet mostly because of the coronavirus thing so it's only going to delay so might as well (also I blew my budget last month so I gotta), but also I'm thinking whether to give Jibaku Shounen Band's single ie. "Hanako-kun" Opening a thumbs up because it's also a one-track single. *silence* I'll think about the latter for a while more. Meanwhile, ClariS' new single was disappointing to say the least, but I got a lot out of KANA-BOON's best album despite the new single's lack of punch, so I'll add a couple more songs to my list. Well, songs performed by when they were a four-piece. Bassist why

Talking about the Internet news first so I can have a grasp on what to listen to next week, let's talk Twitter first. Because Touyama Nao's new single is up on streaming including Apple Music, we can also infer that Numakura Manami's best album which released a month ago will also go through this sequence, so I'll probably listen to it again after that it out; I've shortlisted a couple of songs anyways. Asakura Momo's new music video preview on YouTube is lovely but man did I have a different image of it based on the style and melody of the song (but hey I'm not he director who gets paid), miwa's new song is out on streaming but not like I'm giving it a listen just yet, Ryokuoushoku Shakai's 2nd major album is out next month in April so hype fever, SCANDAL released a new music video featuring the one emotional song I gave in their latest album which is great because it is, Waki Azumi is releasing her 2nd single in May and from the first impression of one of the songs in this again double A-side single it's... not going to top the first haha, and Anime "Kaguya-sama" is starting their 2nd season in the upcoming season with a Kaguya character song? It's not mipressive even considering Koga Aoi who voices the girl just won an award for this role and technically sang in an Anime-based band in "Tenshi no 3P", so... oh well I'm not giving anyways also please tell me Koko-chan will have a character song too that Fujiwara has so much chest she can sing a good song even holding her breath amirite?? *silence*

With this, so next week yes Numakura Manami's best album is under review once again after I skimmed through it last month which I would admit is my fault with my mood at work and all the other singles around (I mean, there's Fuchigami Mai for valentine right?), and also talking about stuff releasing next week actually, is TrySail's new single. Let's hope the B-side is good when people write for Anime most of the time it sucks I don't know why and only sometimes Naruto gets the best theme songs from like Scenarioart. *sigh* Oh well never mind I can only reminisce now to be honest




Well, I guess I'm finally done. Sorry to anyone who cares like those guys in the Steel Lady Nanase's forums about this late of a post on Sunday night, but yeah I took a while to start watching because my mom had her friends over and... I think our house is getting a renovation without anyone's approval besides herself. Oh well, she's a co-owner anyways, whatever. She can do whatever she wants just DON'T TOUCH MY CDS AND PHOTOBOOKS UNDERSTAND!!?? Haha she said someone's popping by to detach the aircon which resides above my shelves though so... DON'T YOU DARE haha cya guys next week and remember: Don't fall off your bike just because you are pissed off at kids failing at cycling taught by their maid. Haha I htink that's how I fell I don't remember lol also just stay at home no reason to come out to get virus

Sunday 1 March 2020

The Entertainment News 2020 Edition Issue #9

Hey, and hello. Welcome back. New month, huh. Feels the same as last month lol okay never mind I spent money on that leap day haha

Seems like I have to come up with something for introductions every week here, but I'm just looking forward to that one Animal Crossing game so I can play that forever and forget about life- Oh we're not there yet? *laughs* I guess I should start applying for that time off work on Friday haha it's just going to be a long weekend of me playing that town-building game but I promise I'll still watch Anime. But it's going to be fast game unlike today which kind of took all day because I took my time. You know those GIFs and long image cutouts? Yah you won't see it three weeks from now lol

I should spend less time writing these haha let's start




アニメ Hatena Illusion
Yumemi's excuses for going to school is the Bible for us to not go to school haha I wish I knew of her when I was a kid lol
The Master of Master? We call that one the Grand Master, by the way. Oh also? Telling Maeve's kids to return their Artifacts is more than just one lie, you f**king b*tch. *laughs* In the new episode after we took a break (#HatenaIllusion07) it really looks like Mariah is here to run the mansion. Even after all she did to the girls at this point? I know, a rotten reputation already, but not like their parents knew about it, I guess. But that might be what is changing. Remember this series is a show about family issues? We will come back to that later. Meanwhile, the guys need to do more training. And as Mariah pointed in which she is not lying (lol I gotta lie detector here now), Hatena doesn't have good control over her Artifact. Well, mainly because it's not trained by her but given to her to protect her by the mother, so Muff-kun not knowing how to listen to the user (besides its basic instinct) is kind of natural. This can be seen when Hatena tries to teach it commands like how I do programming at work lol just that mine works and Muff-kun is an idiot lmao. But still, even if she gets flung into the air, Muff-kun instinctively protects the user, because Maeve made it such that it will do its basic job. Also, Yumemi is not making progress in meditation after learning that she can instinctively make Artifacts just like the mother. So, Ema-san suggested other ways of meditation. I mean, if this is how they compensate us with the lack of a bikini episode... I don't care they are underage haha. Next, we have guests in the house. Introducing Gregory, master of magic, but also technically Grand Master of Mamoru because it was Hatena's father who brought in Makoto as apprentice, is not impressed by his skills as magician mainly because we also know that Mamoru himself isn't that skilled anyways lol. It's like me if I start tuition classes for students and they meet real tutors haha. That one sidekick Dina also literally sh*tted on Makoto by doing the same card trick but with more impression, teaching Makoto a lesson he will never forget. Gregory, however, is giving him another chance to show him his skills before he leaves in a couple of weeks mainly because Maeve has also asked for him to teach the kid, who - obviously having a better reputation than the husband - has convinced the Master to teach this newbie something hopefully. Personally? Makoto may be better learning how to deal with Artifacts than learn magic even if he's not within the family of users, which is what we will talk about next. In an absolute plot twist, Mariah told the kids that they are literally not fit to be within these walls, and are to move out immediately due to the lack of powers to control their Artifacts. Problem is, Jeeves gave the nod. I don't think it's conspiracy considering people that old don't lie anymore (lol), but yeah, seems like the house issue has escalated quite a lot over the past decade since those two parents left for Japan. Also, unless any Artifact made from the members of the family belongs to the family (unstated rule?), why can't Hatena and Yumemi still keep their own Artifacts which their mother literally made for them? Is it just because it's made by the same blood? Why not start with getting back that fat b*tch from last episode lol. Many questions unanswered, but then again the father can't do much, and the mother is stuck somewhere probably not hunting down Artifacts because I think family issues will plague this Anime for the following weeks I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS!! Haha cya guys next week I feel like I'm watching your local rich family drama series now
How I think people look at me when I'm in a job interview
WTF is with this water physics? Is Hatena's shoulder a concrete floor or something? lol
P.S. "I ask Muff-kun to do a lot of things?" She's 12 so I'm not going to ask what else that Artifact did for this girl lmao you think the mother knows? Haha
P.P.S. "I slept the whole flight and missed out on lunch" lol literally everyone on a long flight ever

アニメ Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun
"It's all thanks to you" Well Kou-kun, should've exorcised the shit out of it haha
Wow is this new apparition describing my life or did I just get inspiration for a new story on my own novel series? Haha you can guess whatever you're only thinking of porno anyways. *laughs* Oh, in this new episode (#HanakoKun08) where Mitsuba is a guy, we continue on the one story where Minamoto (Kou) decided not to exorcise the one youkai immediately and hear her his story, we talk about death. Hey, welcome to Anime "Babylon" OVA, I guess. *laughs* Okay, that sh*tshow aside, we talk about Mitsuba, that one... boy who died just recently, apparently. Mitsuba is a male, as mentioned by him, and his dying regret is... vague. In his description to Kou, it's more like he just wants to take pictures. That's it though, you might say, but maybe that is why he hasn't departed yet, as a ghost. Firstly, his story. It was the start of the high school semester. Kou was in the same year and class with Mitsuba. Yeah. Mitsuba Sousuke. The one student no one remembered even if he died in a car accident. Although I would argue Mitsuba's approach in high school as a "cute" introvert is a lot better than before which is nothing that will also in the end make him look like an idiot, this time it just made him a loner. Well, kids be kids, right? Not like anyone liked me in school haha. No really, think about it. People liked you probably because you were interesting. That's it. Curiosity drives social circles as a kid in school. Obligation and respect towards fellow humans that you get in a workplace does not even exist. So if you're average and boring, no one will remember you. Which will justify Mitsuba's death in the first place. Then, we know of his true wish. Which is a problem because that is not enough? Haha, enter evil Hanako, and in this episode we finally learn a lot more about his purpose in being here. Firstly, Hanako and him are different entities which grant wishes to people. Hanako serving the living, and evil Hanako serving the dead. And that's the issue it seems, since as vague as someone's wish is being dead, it got exaggerated real quick with evil Hanako talking down his neck, and we got a live demo of what it looks like to strengthen a youkai with a radio broadcast from Sakura. So yeah, with mention about it the youkai gets stronger, until you know, Hanako comes in for the kill. Secondly, the truth behind Hanako's story. As you may remember, Hanako as Amane being alive, killed someone. That guy turned out to look exactly like him by the name of Tsukasa (not going to use these names again because Hanako and evil Hanako are easier to refer to), but that's as far as we knew what happened. Because remember in the previous episodes we talked about how Hanako died because of this murder. I mean, a murder is when you kill someone. Doesn't say if you're dead because of it OR if you are already dead because of it too, by the way. Then again, that sensei was there - alive or dead - back then so it can be any number of causes. Lastly, their motives of being in existence. Hanako believes in keeping the balance of Seven Wonders in school, and thus enlisted Yashiro to help him control the rumours in school, to some extent. Sadly, it's not as strong as evil Hanako believing that youkai should be as free as they should be, which is being fulfilled of their wishes then and forever?? Hey, that sounds like a terrible idea already. And with Mitsuba, which is why I said evil Hanako may have exaggerated things too much even with this one. Remember, Mitsuba only wanted to have friends and not be isolated out. So one would do, to be honest. BFF, we call it here. If you misinterpreted as "I want to be the next idol and defeat Arashi" I don't care haha. Which is why we come back to the actual question of death. Does death mean what Hanako has mentioned, that it doesn't have continuation? I mean, if it's a joke to how all of them are still around I won't bother thinking about it, but still. The afterlife sounds like fun (lol), but that's where you don't cross the line between having regrets and when or how it ended. So yeah Minamoto, get over it, yes? Oh also, Hanako, can you just remove that seal for Kou? *laughs* He can't even fight at this state haha I know you can save him but. Good chances we will see the next few episodes be confrontation now that the premises are set to whatever is between good and evil which is a question in itself as usual, over Amane's murder of Tsukasa. Oooo this will be interesting. Kinda took a while to get to this part, but I'm looking forward to it. Oh also bring back Yashiro please Mitsuba may be cute but I'm not gay lmao also Yashiro is waaaay cuter hahahaha
If you feel sad by looking at this, I mean, I don't, so... haha

P.P.S. "No matter what you want, or what you hurt to get it, I'll forgive you for everything" Hey Jesus didn't know you were in this series haha

アニメ Rikei ga Koi ni Ochita no de Shoumei Shite Mita.
"Would you please buy an alarm clock which doesn't break when you hit it already?" The sensei always breaks his smartphone? Profs be rich people amirite?? Haha yes I know he's ripped
Okay how did this episode not get flagged for nudity references already?? *laughs* I mean, "if you don't have friends or pets you can go fondle your nipples already" isn't bad enough for this to get flagged? Japan is indeed a free country haha. In this new episode (#Rikekoi08) where we ONLY show ripped naked men touching each other (ugh), we help find a research topic for Kousuke to do in this lab before he spends the rest of his life playing soccer lol. Well, that's part of whatever will happen next week which is the training camp so let's talk more about this guy first. Firstly, Kousuke and his research project. It's null at this point just like me when I go back to school on my final year of university (lol), so the professor suggested using his interests in coming up with experimental theories, many of which have been discussed in real life, whether if it's video games or soccer. His fuel for these are probably going to dry up real quick imo as I would lol, but hey, someone's trying to keep him back. No seriously, Ibarada, you're lying to yourself. Or not why do you think this jock is here to talk science with you guys? *laughs* Next, the original work's author paid a visit to Ikeda Lab. *laughs* I mean, am I wrong in describing Yamamoto, Ikeda's former student who graduated from this lab? Prove me wrong with a research paper haha. This is also probably a large setup to whatever is happening in later episodes, so we better get into it as far as this woman will. Yamamoto Arika is already a graduate, and don't ask how she ended up in a science lab for being a manga artist (but then again she isn't doing well so I guess she is science-type), but suffice it to say she came here for inspiration haha. I mean, prove me wrong with a properly done presentation haha Kanade-chan you are me before I reached high school and learnt of project work standards. Besides searching for inspiration and of course, her finding the main couple's research interesting, she is also doing the producer role inside of the show itself by acting as a promoter for their story to the world in an effort to create more research data for their love research on the basis of love. Sadly, we quickly found out that by sharing their research they are also selling out their data so now Yamamoto can write whatever she wants to make this spicy haha we don't even know if she's writing erotic fiction or not lmao. Hey, you guys signed the wrong contact bro lol how is this even worse than that devil contract with the kid in Kuroshitsuji? *laughs* Oh, and Ibarada just dropped rank in making things interesting in this show already tbh poor girl. Besides this, we are also hinted in the awesomeness that is next episode by literally referring it to as "the swimsuit episode you get once a season" Hey you breaking the fourth wall there? lol please someone stop that woman she is literally replacing Kanade AND Ibarada even just this episode haha dear author you've made a wrong choice in introducing yourself into the series
When she realises he has a big d**k and he realises she has a beautiful va-
#FamilyGoals because somday I'm going to buy two more controllers for that Nintendo Switch at home
P.S. "If I write a lot on the slides, I don't have to worry about what I have to say" Hey me from middle school you can stop there now haha enlightenment for this is just for a moment just go watch YouTube videos for reference on how to do a good presentation
P.P.S. "By the way Kanade, I want your saliva" Okay Yukimura, that's not something you can talk to anyone about besides Himuro but
[Yep we hit quota again so here's more haha and that doesn't even exclude whatever porno references we saw this episode lol ugh]
Himuro is THICC hehe you're welcome for full image
This is so funny I cannot not animate it out haha

アニメ Kyokou Suiri
"But it seemed like she was silently corrupting those around her" So she's a slut? *laughs* Kuro-san I don't mean that about your cousin
So yeah Saki-san, no one said Rikka-san is dead. No one. Not even Kuro-san. Saw that plot twist from a mile away, I tell you. *laughs* In this new episode (#KyokouSuiri08) where we fill in the blanks of this supposed accident of a powerful youkai, because obviously it's not, since there might be another person involved which will turn the future around at where it is now, regarding Steel Lady Nanase's elimination. Sadly to say though, guys? We still have this episode to go before the real action starts, so let's clarify on everything we know of now. Last week we talked about Sakuranogawa Rikka, Kuro's cousin who was hospitalised and supposedly died recently. Obviously all of these is not true, and in the discussion of Saki and Kuro in the lift, she found out that Rikka-san might just be alive. That she is not hospitalised the last time she saw her, that she is from the Sakuranogawa family. Which also means, if you need a hint, that she participated in the experiments from the family for generations of having a wonderful last supper of kudan and mermaid meat, and of course, as a survivor, possesses the same foretelling powers as Kuro-san. So yes, we have an antagonist, guys. It's not Nanase, it's not the Internet or just that wiki page, but whoever runs it, and surprise surprise, it's the cousin. Which will explain why she has left out of contact from Kuro and Kotoko even though as she left the hospital one day with Kuro and stayed in Kotoko's mansion for a year, chose to live on her own just because she picked up a skill in painting during her hospitalisation which is also in itself a joke for experimentation by the doctors about her miraculous survival just like Kuro. Hey, bringing back any memories yet of Kuro's story? It seems like someone here took a different path. Sadly, that path is not righteous in any way. So hey, I guess Rikka is the dark side now. We do not need to know, just like Kotoko said, and we do not even need to find her out. She can't be killed anyways, mind you. We don't even need to know what her intentions were for doing this even though Kotoko probably described it well as she wanted to test the limits of her powers, considering Rikka-san doing such a strong build up within months. So, not that we know how to take her down because the four solutions suggested by Kotoko have not been revealed yet, but you get the idea of how this goes now even from last week. All it takes is for someone to get attacked and the forums will continue to grow along with the youkai, which will make this only worse as the only youkai in existence (as far as this series goes) which can kill. Such a youkai of this scale does not exist, so we know it's made up. Rikka-san went through all the lengths to make one herself (including registering a website domain I suppose, lol) (man, this girl can IT haha) (lol I mean, how hard is it though), and indirectly she is going to see the world burn due to her course of action. The thing is, it's killing people. Like Tereda-san, and he was such a nice guy too. But hey, not like that b*tch gives a damn haha, so we have to fight her. Good thing is firstly, she cannot fight back. Not Nanase, I meant the admin of the forums. Because if she did as Kotoko is in the forums weaving the new truth, people will suspect the admin is covering for something, just like how some governments may be covering up stuff so we don't suspect there's a new virus spreading. *looks at China* So, she can only watch. Next, is her abilities. Remember I said she possesses the same powers as Kuro-san, who is as of right now, fighting Nanase for as long as he can? Yeah, this part though, we don't know what she might be doing, but even so, I suppose Kotoko-chan has something planned such that even if Rikka grabs the determinate future ahead of her, she will run out of choices and not be able to choose stuff that will continue her cause. And that's a good thing, which brings us to our last point. So now, how to do the weaving. This much we don't know, which is why next week we shall see how it goes. Kotoko described it as being in a freely decisive committee meeting where anything goes, and our God of Wisdom is going to change all the tides here with just one hand. How can she do that though? I hope she has enough backup plans to do this though. In early stages Rikka-san can still die often enough to grab futures that are beneficial to her intentions. We have up till Plan D, and I hope we are using them all, so next episode is going to be exciting, to say the least. What, you want to watch the fighting? Come on, didn't we see huge rack fight the undertaker weeks ago? This is not WWE though haha
MFW that Grab driver says she doesn't know where to go lol
DM me on Twitter if I have freaked the shit out of you on this one haha
P.S. "The God of Wisdom is going to charge (Kuro) a consultation fee?" Yeah bro or else how is she going to finance all those rumours? She gotta pay for the domain for those websites haha
P.P.S. "It's not like I (Kotoko) am going to do anything bad" After asking for your boy's apartment spare room key?? Okay I'm tired of doing retorts on these guys lol
[Since they served up as housewife imaginations let's have more Kotoko-chan! Haha who wants to put that ghost face up here to taint my site lol sorry but not sorry Rikka-san]
Aw shove it down me Kotoko-chan haha also this side view is arousing
I'll say yes to sleeping with her anytime hehe
[Oh come on Saki-san is WAAAAY better than Rikka-san what in the heck is wrong with you Kuro]

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Man, I want to shuffle out some things for Klassic Note, so let's talk about this week's releases. Jibaku Shounen Band's single for Anime "Hanako-kun" was already disapppointing ever since I heard the music video, and not like it got any better than the last time I heard it, and despite this single being the only track in itself, I have excluded it from Klassic Note Review so to not embarrass them and especially myself to even praise this song. Thought I say that, for Kitou Akari's 2nd single I didn't even give the Anime ending song for the same show, so that falls well behind. On the other hand, I am giving the 2 other songs in the single though because I'm a nerd and am obsessed on the girl that is Akarin go read my review of her 1st photobook haha. On listening to COUNTDOWN JAPAN from over the new year's from last year, I picked up a couple of songs which I deemed would be a good listen. anewhite as in indie band did fascinate me with their performance so I'm giving one song from them, but surprisingly they disappeared in social media presence soon after the broadcast of this ended. Did something happen or...? Man, I thought I got a good catch this time around reminded me of 2012 tbh. Base Ball Bear threw me an oldie of theirs when I was enjoying Aqua Timez back then in 2008 lol, and I gave another song from Friends (yes, it's a band name) because I like songs of that style and sung by just the female vocalist. Stringent requirements, but I'll give them once in a while. I reviewed the very single last year btw and rejected it, just so you know. I did decide to give other indie bands but that'll be for next week, if I can remember them.

Next week brings us SID's new single since their album last year, and it isn't bad, so I'm expecting more from the release. ClariS new single is also due next week so let's hope there's something good lol, and we finally hit another release bomb from KANA-BOON's new single and best album. That... I mean, I'm still not over the fact that their bassist just gave up did you even see their band composition in COUNTDOWN JAPAN footage they had to replace a bassist! *sigh* I don't even want to know what happened and hopefully with the best album it'll give them a clean slate to continue as a three-piece. Fingers crossed, I'm losing momentum from them already.

On news concerning music from Twitter and beyond if necessary, Scenarioart revealed their new album details releasing in April which I'm quite hyped for to be honest, Earphones is releasing a new album since their single from last year so I might just give a listen I guess, and... is there really nothing else to give for the rest of the month? We just started March man we can't only have one week with songs (no joke, I saw the Excel sheet) this will make me bored all month! Hmm, time to come up with something I guess.




I think I'm done for the week. Hey, the leap year weekend has been great to me. New game events for the three games I'm actively playing (in new event order that is ) and getting new stuff from all of them?? My luck is going to be trash next week haha I better be careful when walking above a drain cover. I'm just now only organising my stuff and seriously asking myself what part of my digital life I can remove because I technically don't have enough storage already and I REFUSE (if you can't do self control this is a good method) to buy more storage just because I don't have storage. That's not how it works, and I strive to make things work for myself. I should remove all those gravure videos for porno haha we are less than three weeks left to Animal Crossing please let me survive until then hehe
