The Entertainment News '23 Issue #07

Okay okay finally that SIGNED photobook is coming my way. *laughs* Oh yeah, should have been on this week's package review, by the way. Which is why no wonder you may think it's not a lot this time around but hey, slow start for the year, yes? I gotta beta test paying my item-level taxes first lol *sigh*

Anyways, hope things will turn around after this week going forward, I didn't realize I've already paid for Fiona's birthday gacha in DOAXVV before (she was 2nd, 1st was Tamaki hehe) so welp no free set of episodes and ring for another member on the list then again. Why do we need to though you are welcome for the lipstick Fiona lol

Alright Kyokou Suiri is FINALLY downloaded (lol don't narc) so let's start the Anime! We got a lot to talk about music too




アニメ Kyokou Suiri
"(Kotoko) and Rikka-san did actually get along at one point, don't you?" WHAT lol
It's not GPS or satellite communication system, dude. Even if the spirits saw anything Kotoko-chan can't know immediately. Which is the problem. Rikka-san you b*tch. *laughs* In this new episode where I swear Rikka-san is constantly up to no good just by her face alone lol (#KyokouSuiri17), I guess we shall find out what happened to her recently. According to the spies Kotoko-chan has questioned lol, we know that two months ago I guess with respect to present time, Rikka-san is living in an apartment which we are quickly introduced to the manager and his girlfriend which has a respectable rack the last time I saw one is from the Steel Lady haha quick flashback to season one, living in a... spooky apartment that is available because of cheap rent. But contrary to the history of tenants which are *cringe* suicide victims, at least we know she won't commit suicide. I mean, she can't. Did you see how she tried to get herself rammed by a truck and survived? *laughs* But yeah dude someone else might commit suicide because of you, Rikka-san. *laughs* Yeah, in the very apartment she is in? *laughs* Hey, that counts as 4th time, right? RIP Kuro-san you will be missed haha then again you can't die too. *laughs* Technically we can stack that suicide number up just in the one apartment but cleaning up is a mess so maybe not. We also found out a little more about Rikka-san ever since her sort of satellite appearance in the first season of the Anime, now talking about how she has been with Kotoko and hated her (lol what is new), and gives others the impression that Kotoko might be the new Satan of everyone's lives. Not just hers, but seriously, this is just private matter so manager don't think too much into it your intuition of jealousy is spot-on. *laughs* The manager couple was showed all the reasons Rikka-san could be the next suicide victim but to no avail, they knew she wasn't in financial trouble or else how can you even bet 20k yen in horses lol that's basically part-time salary in Japan, and just as Kotoko said since Rikka has the same mermaid body as Kuro-san, she naturally wards all spirits away as contrary to what people believe about the haunted abode. Nonetheless, she was right about Kotoko and Kuro-senpai appearing soon after to give the manager an explanation good enough he can rent the lot out again, but of course, like we would spend more time investigating into someone who died after the girlfriend died before him in the same place. *silence* Who cares dude just get over it and move out or get another girl. *laughs* I know right easier said than done. Anyways, simple episode to wrap up our recent sighting of Rikka-san, and may the next time we see her get involved in more of these 200 IQ plays, I guess. Not sure who learnt this level of reasoning skill from who, but somehow, I feel like either of them are involved, if not both. We shall see what happens ahead, Rikka-san has barely made any action so far.
[TL:DR; "I wonder if Sakuragawa-san (Rikka) was just jealous because (Kotoko) took her cousin away from her" That's it dude, the manager of the apartment nailed it haha]
Oh damn can you be my girlfriend?? Haha
I GOT CHECKMATED DAMMIT lol guess it's only Kotoko-chan
P.S. "Kotoko, what are you afraid of?" Losing her boyfriend, I guess? *giggles* "(Kuro) you were even lamenting at the fact that you couldn't enjoy drinking wakamezake from my crotch" O~KAY lmao not porno btw
P.P.S. "Okay, then what if Kuro-san ends up hating (Kotoko)? Oh, I guess he already does" WOW BURNNNNNN haha Rikka-san please "My cousin, who is three years younger than me, ended up with an awful girl" NO NO DO NOT BELIEVE HER lmao this b*tch, dude.
EXPECTATION
(Yeah I didn't expect to patch this up either, and I don't even like this woman)
REALITY
(Haha HELL YEAH)

アニメ Kubo-san wa Mob wo Yurusanai
"I can eat alone at my favourite spot without being seen" Well Shiraishi, unlike you I could NOT find a spot lol RIP middle school me
You think Kubo-san placed a tracker on her boi? Like, an AirTag? You think he knows? *laughs* In this new episode where it's wrong to stalk on people unless they are cute and shy (#KuboSan05), I guess we can talk about more of Shiraishi's weird life in school. Hey, it's not weird my experience in middle school is pretty much like this, co-starring a Sudoku book and a pen if I'm not wrong. Please, an erasable pen, you know how popular those are in 2007? Haha okay history lesson over, Shiraishi loves to find places to eat alone and looks like the school is big enough to find one, but always, he will get noticed by Kubo-san. I mean, not hard, right? Just following him out of class? Yeah, it's easy when you are a Kubo lol. They got to eat each other... bento omelettes haha chill, I already saw Kubo-san eating it from the fork a mile away I can't even, and there's NO WAY she can make something edible. *laughs* Okay, maybe she did make it and it's good. Good enough. I know of a someone who specializes only in eggs and vegetables and that's all her childhood friend gets to eat so what else is new. *giggles* (That's a "Kannagi" reference) Kubo-san did eat his wiener out though so MOVING ON!!! *laughs* And up next and I swear this is the best part besides the White Day stuff, it's the girls' talk, dude. (At shout out to Denny's, my American YouTuber knowledge is only used at times like these lol) What else can we talk about besides knowing that Kubo Nagisa doesn't know about love and has to let her friends tell in on her if she has, even secretly, been over possessive of her newfound boyfriend. Please, "boy friend", gotta include the whitespace. *giggles* Tama-chan is just raging over this reality of her friend not liking an ikemen lmao I guess Shiraishi isn't one, but as Hazuki mentioned we shouldn't spoil things for them so just watch this blossom would be ideal. But yeah, we need more reality checks like the whole of "Takagi-san" series so make this quick or something. *laughs* Next up is music lesson for the couple and I swear all I am thinking about is the opening theme song but I guess we are not doing that which honestly it's a damn shame, so it's probably an old song from Kubo-san haha boomer vibes from her already (Edit: Trust me, I can't prove this at all don't know if this will be on the soundtrack, who knows), but it's still better than whatever Shiraishi is talking about some Anime song when the hero starts fighting like it's "BLEACH" and its infamous theme with Ichigo. F**king NERD!!! *laughs* Yes, talking about me too. *laughs* Last but not least, Shiraishi doing the White Day thing. Problem is, he doesn't know who gave him chocolates on Love Day. Haha, that's awkward now, huh. But hey, we don't have very far to look at since Kubo-san dropped all the hints and somehow, SOMEHOW haha, Shiraishi thinks the neighbour in class ONLY knows who did it. *giggles* Haha yeah did you see Kubo-san's face change when he said he was giving it to someone else? *laughs* I don't know, maybe it's for her. *laughs* I sense some j-j-j-jealousy coming haha this doesn't get old dude (didn't know why I didn't mention it in "Kyokou Suiri" lol), but yeah those aren't necessary since we DO know who gave him chocolates on Valentine's Day. Uh, look back previous episode for answers, thanks. *laughs* All in all, damn the hints are dropping but so are my hopes for this series lol but really we are still good I'll stay positive like her friends are and we will be fine. Shiraishi can't go away he can't be snatched by someone else because they don't notice him. No problem, market dominance here. *laughs* Or so Kubo-san thinks but damn, this is as wholesome as it can get, and we can always get more.
[TL:DR; "Let's keep an eye on her on things until she figures it out" Yeah, just keep the rice cooking, will ya? That's an Anime "Uzaki-chan" joke lol or crack a beer that'll work too Akina]
I made myself a new shocked GIF :)
Haha she's staring at his wiener-
P.S. "I can't help but feel like I'm doing something a little naughty" HELL YEAH Shiraishi you also got bone? *laughs* "Falling is one way I'll get noticed" Oh yeah? How about falling in love-
P.P.S. "Kubocchi, you've gotten so cute lately" Haha Tama-chan here knows she bought the new perfume lol "Why like such a mid guy?" Hey Tama-chan don't judge you don't know Nagisa
[And in case you didn't find out from the Anime's official Twitter account, the original manga serialization is coming to a close, 3 chapters left apparently. I don't know if this is to coincide with the Anime or not, but hey, if you can conclude this series that'll be sweet, to be honest. No season two or something else? Or if you aren't intending to then can we conclude it? Haha please?]
My girl when I give her something... to pass on to some other girl
(Uh oh haha)
My girl when she watches TV
(Haha looks about the same tbh which is cute xD)

アニメ Bungou Stray Dogs
"I believe that soon enough, the Detective Agency will be carrying the weight of the nation's centre of power" Uh oh, is that good news or bad news *cringe*
Sounds like a terrible idea, huh, saying Fyodor has been captured? *laughs* Also, remember season two when the whale thing in the sky got taken down at the outskirts of Yokohama with the American Ability users group? Yeah, those were great times. *laughs* Yes, I miss Kana-chan, what of it? *laughs* In this new episode though we are going elsewhere with this flashback series lol (#BungouStrayDogs43), we talk about the Angels of Death. Yup. You want to talk about internal corruption? You got it, dude! *laughs* Hey, it's about time, innit? Like, we have been going for three seasons of Anime NOT talking about how Sakaguchi can still be in contact with like, Atsushi and the others without being found out or eliminated because he takes care of or monitor the Ability users in the nation? Hey, I would like to say that this is the only legit job in the government because everyone else is just wanting the Agency's downfall. Really, the idea of Nikolai threatening government officers who are then wanting the end of Detective Agency is kind of ironic, even Atsushi knew something was wrong just by smelling a liar who hasn't drunk coffee. *giggles* Anyways, I guess the main point is then, what's the purpose of destroying the Detective Agency? Remember Natsume Souseki had to create this triage to protect Yokohama and even Japan from harm? Okay never mind, let's get to the non-spicy part first. Also, a 101 guide on how to stop the Detective Agency! Okay let's go. Firstly, stop the Ability user who can disable Abilities. Haha that should be obvious who we are talking about, so I assume one of the five Angels of Death back then known as "V" which is a name Ranpo-san is more familiar with, is with Dazai on the horse races for some reason. Well, that's settled for now I guess, don't have to kill him or nothing. Second, find all the crimes the members of the Detective Agency have made. Or even better, put them in a crime scene. But first, let's bring us to Nikolai's power. Just beating Atsushi's level of understanding seeing him walk into the threat first of the government officers and trying to save them though they are also corrupt lmao, we know that Nikolai has the Ability of creating portals in all directions within a range. And I mean "all" directions very specifically because did you see how he got Atsushi's leg stuck IN the ground? Which ironically looks like a video game glitch so that's kinda screwed up if you think about it. Also how the locations of the Agency members can be switched this fast. But that I don't think is from him. Because according to the Chief who is still clean, he explains to Ranpo about the members of the five Angels. We know of two of them already no surprises there, one should be with Dazai because he's such a game changer, and we also know one of them can manipulate the mind for information? Access one's memories? Think of it as futuristic, I guess, can't comprehend which real life author that can be from. *laughs* Because it might be this last dude that is very different, being able to switch I don't think bodies, but locations of bodies, so that let's say Kunikida squatting on the door can be switched with one of the enforcers in the room, but likely with the same uh, bodily content? DNA? Yeah, I guess. Oh no wait, isn't one of them able to change narrative? Just write them as the enforcers? Yeah. That sounds kinda f**ked up though! I guess I don't understand it all, and that Tonan dude who already doesn't believe in the Agency has all the power to *ahem* call the cops on the Agency so I guess why not, right? *cringe* All in all... I mean, you guys get what happened just this episode alone? I'm very confused. Now that Nikolai is dead (lol) can someone explain to me what happened? *laughs* Okay jokes aside, we know not to trust the jester so he's likely still alive, but the idea of this episode is definitely to show that the Angels of Death are the Detective Agency. Easy, right? Then the government will remove of them, and then all will be over. As in, no one to be able to protect the nation. And we're not relying on Port Mafia, by the way, they don't have the wooden arrow. *laughs* Wow. I gotta say, really hyped about the proceedings on this my blood's flowing crazy. No really, can't explain this tension I got right now that's not on my crotch, really. It's real impressive so far, and I want to know where this goes. Probably not their downfall, but someone has to believe in the Agency. That is not them. So that's gonna be hard. Also, is Fyodor free yet? We don't know. All the answers we need to know soon, I guess. Damn, is this still the best action series so far that I've watched. Okay, second best, "BLEACH" first, yes? *giggles*
I miss them already haha
This is kinda wrong so I'll leave you guys to imagine what happened lmao
P.S. "I'm perfectly sane." Yup Nikolai, I believe you. *laughs*
[Sorry for the long write-up YOU KNOW it's a good episode when I can write this much haha I didn't even talk about the book btw and how the author is also one of the five Angels lol hey he wrote the narrative so he knows. So wait, if we can't find that Angel who can write narrative we are all dead? Then WTF- So this is just an upcoming massacre now? The rest of the season is just blood?? Haha ugh]
These character animations are real cool so I'll leave these here
These character animations are real cool so I'll leave these here

アニメ Otonari no Tenshi-sama ni Itsunomanika Dame Ningen ni Sareteita Ken
"February has that one important event, right?" Oh you mean my birthday? Yeah, that's important haha *dabs*
Oh yes, THAT day. *laughs* What of it? Haha is what Amane is likely saying so I won't repeat what he said again, but in this episode (#OtonariNoTenshiSama06) I suppose you can guess where Chitose is going with this, but true though, Amane may not be "youth" enough to know about it. *laughs* You think Shiina knows? Ah dammit. *laughs* So, let's talk about the two Love Days. Yeah, not just the one, but yes, as with tradition it HAS to start with the girl. I mean, can't be any worse than that dude who got chocolates from all the girls in class, he will at least get the one as the buddy mentioned. Don't worry, the chocolate here can't be as bad as like, stuffed with frog meat. *laughs* Sorry for the "Acchi Kocchi" joke there only Mayoi-chan is evil enough to ruin Love Day, but suffice it to say that I can talk about the differences of what Chitose gave which are obligatory chocolates so it's for anyone without love interest or else the buddy will beat him up lol, and what Mahiru has given him at his place because I SWEAR those are sentiment chocolates. Yes, it was the hot chocolate drink. F**king jebaited dude, she gave you the chocolate already, you didn't even notice. *giggles* Ah that was a great Valentine's Day, so of course we fast forward to a month later to let Amane worry about what he should give back to her. Obviously not chocolate we don't want our angel to be fat lol, and I promise Amane dressing up as his ikemen side is probably making Mahiru-chan frantic with excitement haha we call that falling in love by the way, then also found like, a wrist accessory what the heck you call those bracelets, for her for White Day. Like, really? Not chocolates, huh. That's great. And you dare ask if it's making her uncomfortable? It's making me unwell so what the f**k dude go take off your clothes and show your abs or something, dude. *laughs* Interestingly, it's more than that because I guess he did put in effort to give her like, wishing cards from the guy obviously thinking that Mahiru won't use this for... indecent purposes but what do we know, we have enough of these cards until Episode 12 so we can expect something. *laughs* All in all... BRUH. *laughs* As usual, tell me they are not in a relationship already. The romantic type. *laughs* I think I know what I hate about this series. I hate how much everything is laid out bare. That might be the issue. From selecting the right gift for each other and giving to them on the special day albeit not in their faces, to them bothered about how they look to each other, to even how much they want to celebrate their birthdays and not knowing of when whatsoever, I gotta say it's as cringeworthy as it's also very... how should I put it, silly? Yeah. Almost said retarded lmao, to think that I'm not here to enjoy a romantic relationship between this neighbour helping each other situation. But I see another thing coming, and Amane's buddy might be right about this, that this friendly relationship will not last long at this rate. Someday someone is going to think that advancing into going steady is a good idea. Yes, and that will ruin pretty much everything we have seen up till now. Not that it's bad, I think it might be coming sooner than later, and I wonder if the story will even go in that direction or I guess we just keep this storytelling rather monotonous so we can just enjoy more Mahiru-chan since why not, we are here for cuteness anyways. Excuse me, here for angel. *giggles* Not much has changed since Episode 1 though, I still gotta say. Maybe I'm wrong.
If I didn't tell you it was a bracelet you would think this is a proposal haha
(No, never)
Shout out to WacDonalds? Haha clearly a fast food chain reference
P.S. "I don't just happen to be a guy, I am a legitimate gentleman." We don't know for sure though how we know if you're not female- "I think a legitimate boy will put moves on a girl when they are alone together" Oh come on Chitose lmao "I'd be lying if I said Mahiru doesn't trigger some urges in me..." OH COME ON haha we are not there yet dude
P.P.S. "But what do I know? I'd never get enough chocolate (on Valentine's) to make me fat" I know right if I have to get fat I rather be loved by all women out there lol
[You think they gave her a pillow so that they don't have to animate her lips? Anyways more Mahiru-chan haha]
Mahiru through the eyes of Amane:
She is cuter than the pillow *giggles*
Mahiru through the eyes of Amane:
Don't tell others that she's your gf *laughs*

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Wow is this week quite a week for Klassic Note, Again, this week is literally it, next week onwards for the rest of the month I'll have to find something to listen to, so I'll share what's up for the rest of February. Meanwhile, let's talk about what I gave! ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION's new single is the newest disappointment of the year to be frank, so I just skipped it. Like, even Homecomings' indie single from 2015 is more interesting than that, dude. Also, maybe because it featured so much broken English I thought I was listening to No Buses for a second. *laughs* Hey, goes to show how little I know about these guys in their 10th year coming. Kitou Akari's new single did not fascinate me further despite me tuning in to her release livestream a day before the release since the B-side didn't get better in my brain and the A-side is barely even good. I guess cute voice Akarin is not much to go with, huh. Next single is likely for action series Anime so maybe we get cool Akarin back. Uesaka Sumire's new single is the new Klassic Note Review since the last time I did this almost 6 years ago by the way, not that this is a fantastic release but I gotta say the first two tracks are really good in my opinion even if they are credited to something which says a lot. So yeah, you're welcome, Sumipe. Wasn't there 10 years ago so yay for your 10th anniversary, I guess. miwa's new EP should be getting the spotlight I assume because I quickly changed from a meh review to like, I'm just desperate for Valentine's Day okay? miwa-san, I'll take anything at this point. Maybe you too? *giggles* Not getting that on my shelf though, we are really one song away, and I'm not talking about the acoustic self covers. Last but not least, I then found out that SpecialThanks new digital only EP was released... last weekend lol which featured songs which I've listened to and forgot last year. So yeah, giving them now but not like I'm giving them all there isn't a CD to buy anyways. *giggles* So no, no Review for this.

We have more news to talk about from Twitter which is about music of course don't mind the new season Anime announcements lol. Thanks to Kanno Mai once again (hehe) (I pride on her recommendations now I can't even) I took a listen to yorushika's new song which is for drama I think, isn't bad at all and I think I grew to like it despite the obvious familiarity so don't ask me why, guess I just want a new song from them. THE ORAL CIGARETTES' new song makes me tired listening to their new songs over the past couple of years lol see you in the album. cinema staff's new song also suffered the same fate so I won't even describe how much I don't care about giving these guys now, I'm sorry. A new Yogee New Waves' new song will pre-release next week in view of their EP next month so that's exciting. Hanazawa Kana's recent live digest is nothing short of great, but hey I didn't listen to everything from her recent album so maybe I'm missing out. SPECIAL OTHERS ACOUSTIC announced a new song in May where they will be giving out CDs for free in their upcoming event so count me out I suppose. *sob* I probably won't care about Rie fu's English branch getting a new song next month, and during her recent live event we know that Waki Azumi's new single will be for Anime, is releasing in May, and is double A-side. What are the chances I'll give anything from it? Haha hey as long as we don't have the trend from last year we should be good.

Okay, so plans for the rest of the month, basically. I'll remind myself again next week until March drops by. For next week first though, I'll finally give Ueda Reina's 1st album a chance since I've heard a little something from her radio show (which I missed this week lol I'm terrible), which is likely the only thing I'll listen to honestly. I know there are new digital songs so I'll have a lookout for those. Following week I'll give a listen to amazarashi's new single which is ending song for Anime "NiER" which goddamn has a 15-minute music video which I have no mood to watch they literally collaborated with a producer to make this, which I hope the song will be good enough for me to talk about lest Aimer come trash this dude coming March with the opening theme.




Oh well, I missed Koko-chan's radio show again. *laughs* Man, is this a problem because, as I will explain to you in my birthday post yes it's happening the following Monday as I take work leave, it's really hard to catch some of these radio shows especially their airing time is close to dinner time here so I can't just sit here and not eat with my family. *silence* I should just move out to live alone haha that's how you get laid, right? If you say you live with your parents no one will want to date you? Haha what do I even know. See you guys next time then, and until then... Koharu-chan just saved me from this week's event gacha shame. Thanks, girl. Your petite build and perfectly-sized boobs are the best-

P.S. Oh come on, we know Koharu is good because dear Naganawa Maria is voicing her- Where is the part where this girl turns masochist? *laughs* We not going to get the miracle that is Alternative Girls anymore huh

Friday 10 February 2023

The Welfare Package January 2023

We still using this title format, huh. Well, at least I'll make it shorter.

Also shorter is this package review mainly because I can only say all my schedules for this year's batches are already screwed, and with the upcoming one (which is two Klassic Note Reviews hehe) I hope to change this around. Meanwhile, we can talk about what we did not miss for the start of the year? Or was it last year? Okay I'm pretty sure my notes say these are this year we did last year a month ago if you can recall

Let's!
(Probably not doing a content page because it's really not a lot)




Also let's unbox!!! Haha I gotta it has been a while.
This just hurts my wallet, honestly.
And we're going up ONE MORE PERCENT NEXT YEAR??
Please, no.
*cringe*

Oh yeah, these have been sitting there since the start of the year.
Right after the previous one left Japan. *sigh*

I'm excited for these lol don't ask me why I bought them tbh

SOCKS!!!
No feet included though lmao


And this is the cutest thing I can't even.
Cosplay, by the way.
"Real rabbit", by the way.
How often can we copulate-

Maybe we not talk too much about the new year greeting card because I can only say the words she wrote behind the card are not for human processing hehe it's only for fans processing *dabs*, but we can talk about the new edition of the fanclub newsletter Inori Machi Diary!! Yep, I've missed a year this is the 20th one the previous one I got was 15th we are 5 editions off lol, but suffice it to say this is still so far the only (Japanese voice actress) fanclub which gives back physical items regularly so I have to spend money to ship them here. Free of tax anyways since it's technically free it comes with the subscription haha *dabs*, but yeah, we can talk about what happened to her live tour and know a little more about her through fan questions.

Oh wow this is heavier than the usual newsletter booklet...

Oh, this is a special membership card holder to celebrate the fanclub's 5th anniversary!
Wow, just in time!!
(Haha I swear I did not plan on this)

LOL it's just full of the mascot Kurari-chan

Okay, book time!!
Sorry for the delay hehe

I can spoil this a bit because these are the fanclub event goods which I will explain in due time ie. next time because I bought these too haha

We will talk about why the heck I would spend any money to watch a fanclub event next time. For now, just take it that it's because of my big damn mouth I can't even. *laughs* Oh, as in I'll be watching the event live, bought the afternoon session ticket *giggles*

Moving on!!

Q: Favourite popcorn flavour?
A: Salt
*looks at popcorn box I bought for Lunar New Year*
Inorin, you fancy sour cream & onion? Haha

Oh yeah I have this too lol dude took it to the beach

Same same but different haha
Oh yeah girl(?) you gonna have someone join you quite soon


Okay okay I should really stop spoiling what's coming up for Inorin's fanclub and change gears for a bit because thank goodness these are here to pad the order, we have some Asakura Momo radio event socks!! *laughs* Hey, trust me, I was wanting to get some Amamiya Sora long pants but damn, I felt like I would wear socks more often (to work) (*giggles*) so I chose this. Maybe it's a regret at this point maybe I should go back and buy them pants too haha, but yeah, don't think too much about what I said last year about only buying bromides. *laughs*

Long socks, by the way.
It's just cute I don't know haha total impulse buy here


And we're back for another round of MusicRay'n 3rd generation event goods!! Yeah, this time around apart from the badges which are... kinda different from the last time I bought them. Why are they so small... no wonder the store listing showed them as squared I thought it's just they fit in a circle one. *silence* Anyways, I also bought a (and this is not going to be the only) Japanese teacup which I won't be using them because damn just look at the art on this! No relation to the girls though so why? *laughs*

So yeah, this is the standard cup
(And I bought a larger one which can be compared... if I didn't bring it to work lol)

Gotta say, the art on this is AMAZING I don't think this has anything to do with the girls-

This time, I only got 2 of them just because...

...I also forgot that it's in sets of 2!!
Man, these are not... large... also Kanade-chan by the way
(Small luck, girl)

OH DAMMIT HAHA what is with these logos
Hey, Mirai-chan you are two time coming already hehe
(She's good luck though?? Don't tell me...?)

WHERE IS MY KOHARU-CHAN ANYWAYS EVEN MOKA-CHAN WHICH MA BRO LIKES IS BETTER- Yes, I put those images just in case you aren't familiar with them yet like I am lol




And that's it! I guess it did come in time for Valentine's Day but dammit I swear all the stuff that is for this Love Day is... only going to appear with the upcoming packages including what is my birthday so yeah God is my existence a joke to you, so let's talk about those then! I feel ashamed to even put a sub title then again this really isn't much... until they tax me haha yes the tax is on the items and not shipping fees which I assume is already included. *silence* Let's not talk about this ever again, okay? I just want some consolation dude haha

Wednesday 8 February 2023

Don't you hate it that we all have freedom of speech but I am wrong just because the way I convey is not up to standard?

I think about how some people out there will think articulation is vital in conveying information but the reality is that language is hardly a standard and we all violate language rules here and there, but people can still understand us. Trust me, I had rough English lessons where teachers try hard to teach me what sentence structure means. And until I care, I'll write and/or speak however I like, honestly. So don't mind me, fellas.

Wow, is my choice of going to colleague's place on Friday a mistake and a hell of an experience. *laughs* Suffice it to say I was just going probably only for dinner after work but because something came up at the last minute and we all had to wait for it to be done, only then realized this guy lives halfway across the island (he at West and I live Northeast), we only had time to have dinner and do a Lo Hei maybe play some games I did enjoy his PS4 lol, before we realized we are going to miss the last of public transport that night. With my sheer luck and thanks to Google Maps I took all the last buses of my journey and reached home safely... at 1am. *laughs* Yeah, the night is young, they say. Guess I don't have to be 30 no more-

Speaking of time here lol what is the relevance even, the upcoming package which will be coming in soon probably in time for Valentine's Day... did not go according to plan. No photobook review within so that will not be until March, and I am TAXED BY ITEMS SHIPPED NOT SHIPPING FEES so that's already going to make me rage lol maybe I find another service which doesn't do that hehe

Okay okay me stop listening to more Himemori Luna Electone playing why must Luna-tan be playing it at a Sunday morning haha let's start I love watching niche content like Anime! *laughs*




アニメ Kyokou Suiri
"I know who the real culprit is... There is no need to rush..." Yeah bro we have the whole episode and no boyfriend around so we can take our time *wink*
Because you see, the problem is not finding out who did all this, but to find a way to NOT put the blame on us. That's the harder part. Fortunately, we have sleuth master here so we good. Also, not famous detective. *giggles* In this new episode what is with the special extended opening  maybe that's the actual length (#KyokouSuiri16), we conclude the murder surrounding Muroi-san, who, if you haven't realized, is always cursed to have issues with associating with women. Hey, let's not say the snow woman is also going to be an issue eventually lol Kotoko-chan stop predicting that, but let's talk about the murder first. Well, for starters, we have to remember something, which is a thing I thought of not saying but then I really forgot which was that, Kotoko had all the access to all the spirits in town since she is the goddess after all, so is able to know what happened at the time of murder. So yeah, surprise surprise, it's not the guy after all, and boy did I thought that the ex-wife would kill herself and frame the husband but then again why would she since she could've done that long ago, brought us to the next suspect and obviously murder on the line, Muroi's partner at his previous work Itsuki. She's a b*tch. *laughs* Also she did a lot of things to keep his beloved in check even after he left the company, like wink wink, checking on whether he has an alibi before committing the murder and then framing it on him. Like seriously, who puts the murder's name on the hand? There isn't even a marker on the location, dude. *giggles* So yeah, Itsuki here didn't do everything cleanly, and as Kotoko mentioned, it's super unlikely the police are still at the Muroi-did-it accusation mainly because he has been so secluded even without the camera footage, that it's super hard to find any more clues as to whether they can pin him as the murderer. So yeah, and as overheard by ghosts near the police station lol why, they are investigating the possibility of Muroi-san being framed of murder, which will probably make more sense at this point. And for the details of the murder you can watch it for yourself, but suffice it to say that you know, betrayal of Muroi-san somehow must come with a cause of women. Yeah, he too handsome, dude. Waaaaay more handsome than Kuro-senpai- GET THAT DEMON MONSTER AWAY FROM ME!! *laughs* Says snow woman because yeah, remember we see him fine but as spirits they see him as... they can't even see him straight because it hurts their eyes. *laughs* Man, I wish I had that kind of appeal like Muroi but hey, I honestly also don't want that kind of betrayal action but maybe after I've earned a fortune that's fine hehe. Still alone either way so why not be rich too- Then again, I'm already living the secluded life so frame me for murder, why don't you? Haha please don't I don't want to eat prison food. *laughs* Kuro-senpai asked a good question though, that why would Itsuki who if she loved Muroi-san, frame him for murder? Why not frame someone else? Maybe she doesn't know anyone else? Yeah I guess, but the irony of being there for him while he is framed for murder sounds like a f**ked up idea for me. Unless you can tell me you can make Muroi-san innocent by exposing the murderer in which case it'll be... you? *laughs* Hey, no one said this is a perfect crime. *giggles* All in all, wow this might be the best episode of this season so far, no joke. We are doing pretty well so far and so is the progress of Kotoko-chan's report lol don't forget she has to go to college/university too, so I wonder how many more cases we will have that actually will relate to the snow woman again. I thought she will be main for this season but maybe I'm wrong. Or that Muroi-san will be frozen solid soon enough and she will be. Haha let's see how then maybe Kuro-senpai will be killed by Rikka-san already lmao
EXPECTATION
MFW girls hug me in fear lol I wish
It's so worth celebrating this is my new congrats GIF from now on haha
REALITY
Wait like, 3 more months or something
P.S. "Oh..." Haha that's me right there I'm with snow woman I don't get SH*T
P.P.S. "I'll definitely want to kill my boyfriend if he cheated on me" But Kotoko-chan you don't have a boyfriend- "I don't think your boyfriend will not die even if you tried to kill him" Yup that's the joke ladies the gentlemen
[Okay I was excited to see who voiced the 3 ghosts who described the murderer to Kotoko-chan but am DISAPPOINTED to know they are not in the credits. Come on, I swear one of them sounded like Kanno Mai hehe]
#NotMyBuddha, I gotta say.
*giggles*
What is this even lol
Life of a ghost be like
*laughs*

アニメ Kubo-san wa Mob wo Yurusanai
"Twansform!" Haha Seita-kun how are you already winning
Hey, Shiraishi-kun, if you are a kid you WILL NOT get bored doing that thing for hours. Ask all the hardcore Power Rangers fans when they were kids. Oh but I won't even at that age so can't relate I was too woke already. *laughs* In this new episode (#KuboSan04) boy did we start this with a bang because get your cameras ready we are going to record Seita-kun, wait, AND the brother doing it together? *giggles* Well that was a great start as we see Seita-kun getting hype over TV today and boy do I miss those days instead of dealing with YouTube livestreams and gameplay videos. *silence* Anyways lol, we got more kinks lined up for the day haha, where I guess we are not into feet so we have wrong socks on Shiraishi's side which no surprises no one noticed and I wish the same can be said for me because that gives me anxiety to no end my mental health will be in much better condition if I were him. Interestingly, Shiraishi did notice something different about Kubo-san but don't know what is it until they BOTH got a chance to stand on a chair to put up posters on the notice board to notice *wink* that Kubo-san is wearing tights. Yep, she didnt have socks to wear lol. Also, one would think that she might not be wearing anything inside her- lmao but thank goodness this is still a seinen series so we are not going that far, but she was wearing them outside, I guess. Also, to be able to notice that difference means he was STARING AT THEM LEGS DUDE??? Haha ah hey, there is little to appreciate these days we take whatever we can. *laughs* Next up, Kubo-san wants a convenience store trip. I'm not sure what you call those in convenience stores here but they sure aren't as cheap as those in Japan to say the least and I won't even vouch for their taste, but the girl wants to try them out, dude. Never tried that before living for 16 years? That's a problem. *giggles* Thank goodness the voice from above and I don't mean Ten-chan's voice lol get it? Kubo-san was able to order a drink for herself with help from Shiraishi who wouldn't order one in fear of sharing half the drink with her and killing himself with embarrassment in the process. So he got a bun. Man, imagine if they bought TWO buns and- Moving on haha, but Kubo-san did not give up on the teasing, so she went for the kill on the bun. Yup, no tearing out a piece of whatsoever. You see bro, the thing with a drink is that you can open the cover and let them drink from not the cover. *giggles* Well either way he is screwed since people just bump into him like he's a wall or something so there's that. Really could've eaten while it's hot, dude. *laughs* And we end with Valentine's Day. That sad day that'll hit me in a week or so where no one will give me chocolates, not even by mistake. But hey, Shiraishi thinks the one below his desk was a mistake, so what else is new. And you would think one should put their name on it at least, well, "to Shiraishi" at least, to let him know. But well he did bring it home so we're good. And no prizes for guessing it right, Kubo-san made it for him. By herself. Not purchased from the store. Made it in her kitchen. With the sis watching- And THAT is what's the problem here lol because even the sis knows this miracle is happening in front of her eyes where her sister is trying to make chocolate for her beloved by herself, and no surprises there from the sis' statement, her first attempt came out, uh, very racist-ly black. *silence* I should stop making such jokes lol. Anyways, I guess the sis did indirectly help her make some of the cookies presentable to the public lmao, so yeah it was a happy ending. Well almost. For Shiraishi might be getting the best one out of the batch, and maybe Tama-chan and the others get the oddly shaped ones because who cares. *giggles* Man, I should stop describing episodes but even so, it's a joy to watch these unfold so don't mind me talking about how good this series is just in general.
MVP Seita-kun strikes again!! Haha
Seriously Seita-kun your eyes CANNOT be shinier
And Kubo-san wins haha *dabs*
P.S. "There was no way I was given chocolate (on Valentine's Day) anyway" Yeah uh huh your status is different now bro *laughs* 
P.P.S. "It's Valentine's Day... Some pray to god. And some never had a chance to begin with." Yeah how about both? Haha yeah that's me dude
You don't realize how wrong this is until I show you only the top part lmao
Such waifu material until you know she can't cook for sh-
Hey Yomu-sensei? You're welcome haha

アニメ Bungou Stray Dogs
"Guns are fascinating, right? For some reason, when you have one, you turn into an idiot" Haha Ranpo-kun I wish people knew of this tbh
Wow, this episode is really leading up to the rest of this season, huh. Man, my blood is rushing I can't even. *laughs* In this new episode where we conclude the perfect crime which will otherwise be if not for Ranpo-kun haha we have to save Kunikida dude (#BungouStrayDogs42), let's talk about the mystery in general, how about it? Yeah. No surprises, Mushitaro is the one who killed the author and stealing his final volume of the novel, is probably trying to sell it in the black market for a profit. Problem is, that is just a copy, not the original. For what seems like just one taking the life of another lol it is still true to this aspect, there is a lot more to this supposed mystery from the famous mystery novel author on his last work. Firstly, it's impossible to stop Mushitaro as Ranpo-kun exposes him in the car they were in and tells this to the police. There is no evidence, that driver is pointing a gun without bullets though to Ranpo, and they were above all, in a diplomat car. Yup, you heard that right, they got their own butt covered well. So yeah, they had to let them go despite Ranpo tipping it out to Poe and to the police to get these guys once he has revealed... well almost everything. Which brings us to the next point, why we had to trap Mushitaro in his own mystery to get him to confess. Not surprising, we know the same thing as this dude that Ranpo doesn't have an Ability he's just smart lol, so he had to use Poe's powers to trap him in so the only way he can get out is to reveal the truth. Even then, Mushitaro was still lying till the end, for Ranpo then figured out already that he committed the murder in orders from the author friend himself. Yes, they were friends, that's the whole point that he can get this close to the author, but in a plot twist for the novel I guess haha, he hired his friend to kill him so there is motive and intent. Yup, weird thought, but the author is already going to die of a tumour in a year or so so maybe this is a faster route. *cringe* Anyways lol, and it's also BECAUSE they are friends, that Ranpo knew how to deal with Mushitaro who can cover all his crimes with evidence: To let the suspicions behind the friend's death be as what Ranpo will reveal to the public OR fulfil his friend's wishes and reveal the actual ending proper. Which he wouldn't if he wasn't directly involved in this, so he is basically busted already to be honest, serving as easy evidence for the whole thing and probably enough to get Kunikida out of prison... or so we think. I wouldn't think too much about this Nikolai person who just appeared out of nowhere but I would guess Mushitaro won't be walking out of this alive lol thanks Ranpo for the career recommendation we don't do after-prison job opportunities here let alone afterlife ones he has no chance anyways haha *dabs*, is obviously going to be killed by, wait for it, one of the FIVE angels working alongside Fyodor to take Mushitaro down lest he reveals more of their plans. Yup, deja vu already? And as the Detective Agency take on their next assignment haha it's already too late Mushitaro if you can DM like maybe Fukuzawa they might still have a chance to say no, we are already in a deep hole of no return as we take on directly the actual antagonists of the series. Yup, all those earlier is just for show, ladies and gentlemen. This upcoming group? We might not even be able to stop them. Boy, is this series delivering, and I like that. Plot twists at every corner possible, and we haven't even seen Atsushi-kun. Not really missing him but you know, I hope he's not dead. *laughs* Then again, do we think Ranpo-kun has an Ability now? I don't think so, right? He's just manipulating information he knew from mystery to get back those to f**k with him using Abilities? I like to think of it that way, makes more sense. *looks at Wiki* Yeah, still no Ability haha
How Edogawa Ranpo acts in public:
Dude just making a mess, really
How Edogawa Ranpo acts in public:
I swear some people do this and peek on leftover copied documents
[Well I've got nothing much to say at this point but amaze at the conclusion of the idea that the final page was photocopied due to the fact that tears were on it. They were friends, dude, and if you're not Fyodor you will deal this with emotion. But you know, there are psychopaths in reality too so what else is new haha ok I better not go on further]

アニメ Otonari no Tenshi-sama ni Itsunomanika Dame Ningen ni Sareteita Ken
"This feels really weird, welcoming the new year together" You sonofa-
We might be a month in already, but hey Happy New Year, everyone. *giggles* Please, it's not over yet I still want to trial period 2023 I don't want it to start. *laughs* In this new episode where I see from the previews we finally have more going lol (#OtonariNoTenshiSama05), thanks dad for the normal new year replies because somehow EVERYONE knows I'm hanging out with Shiina-san. *silence* Mahiru-chan. Dammit. *laughs* Don't worry, I'll make this mistake only once a week. *giggles* New year happened, and we already have the first intimate interaction here, girl falling asleep on the guy. What, you thought I was talking about cheek poking? I mean, she might be awake when she was placed on his bed but what else you gonna do about it? They are friends dude, we can't do anything on the bed together. *laughs* Come on, girl, don't sleep on me. Sleep WITH me. *dabs* Hey on another note? Aizawa Saya I know your hobby is sleeping and Akarin may say that this isn't a great hobby to do with others but can I sleep with you somewhere? HAHA Then again that might be too good to be true... for now haha, so let's not tell Amane's parents about it, yes? *laughs* Oh hi dad. *laughs* Don't worry he didn't find out he was flirting with the mother anyways. *giggles* Many jokes here just having these people interact with each other, but I guess the purpose of the parents coming over apart from witnessing whatever thing he has with his cute neighbour and how much Shihoko wants Mahiru to be her daughter lol that will be incest my dear *laughs* (ah hey step siblings is okay though? lmao), brought some kimono for the girl to go shrine visiting for the new year. Amane looks ikemen as usual lmao why, but I think the joke is on the fact that they were seen, well Mahiru-chan was seen, holding hands in public I guess. Oh well, what'cha gonna do. *laughs* They also shared drinks with each other unlike the other couple in another Anime which didn't (read above for "Kubo-san" thanks), which just goes to show how much of a joke this series is already treating friendship like holy water and throwing romance into the gutter. *giggles* They also shared compliments with each other but then what else is new here, and man did the relentless teasing from Amane get the girl every single time I can't even. All in all... guys, we all need a Shiina Mahiru-chan in our lives. And a handsome face. Yeah. *laughs* Also, just fill yourselves up with not a cuppa hot drink but with some wholesome Anime like this where embarrassment is fuel, ladies and gentlemen. Yes, ladies too I swear this demographic is very universal Amane should be the reason you watch this hehe. Also, I found out that LISTENING to this Anime will make me happier and not complain about the... the drier scenes or poor animation quality that would otherwise only be better on close-ups. Man, I guess I'm giving this till the end. We have some backstory from Amane and his dad it seems on why he moved to live alone so welp I hope it's not a bullying story again lmao TYPICAL, but yeah, it's peaceful days going forward which I don't think so. We need more drama in this drama even though I swear we have a lot of it already haha I don't know what else better to say about this series dude just leave me alone
[TL:DR; "Like how he is always so cool without even trying" This plot in a nutshell- As I said dude it's not an angel dropped into the guy's life as per the title THIS SERIES LITERALLY GAVE HER AN IKEMEN lol it's like "Romantic Killer" we should just change the title to "Otonari no Ikemen-sama" haha]
EXPECTATION
...
WE WISH haha
REALITY
Yeah, just this, this handsome dude hehe
P.S. "(Mahiru) shouldn't put her guard down (at someone else's place). Sure looks cute sleeping though." Haha Amane is literally some gentleman and sicko at the same time
P.P.S. "And you didn't think I might try something (to you)" Yeah dude but seriously it's just ONCE, right? He just needs to do it? And this series will be over?? We are NOT going to have a rape case in our hands lol "Or do you want me to do something?" BRUH haha "Amane-kun is surprisingly very considerate" Yeah your son did not molest me not even once *dabs* "As for staying as friends, that's something I ask of myself too" HE GOT FRIENDZONED lmao this rollercoaster of emotions
[She looked so cute this week so SHIINA COMPILATION- SHIT haha]
They drew this so bad but it still looks good haha Anime plz stop doing this
This is so cute it won't happen in reality and I'm right haha
Mahiru-chan in a nutshell hehe she doesn't know

音楽 This Week on Klassic Note
Well what turned out to be just a slow week starting February now literally became probably the most packed month thanks to Apple Music, I listened to TWO albums which released this week. Well, we'll get to the ambiguity in a bit, but let's talk about Kana-chan. Hanazawa Kana's new single is... actually not bad apart from the Anime credit but then again it could be worse, is likely set to be in Klassic Note Review so this might be my first from her? Yeah, ironic even. *laughs* Thanks to Apple Music showing new releases I also knew of YUKI's new album celebrating her 20th anniversary recently haha yeah she is that old now, but damn her album still delivers every time as I never run out of songs to give so that is a plus whichever direction I take, whether it was giving a topic song with a music video or not. Oh and welcome to the Klassic Note Artist Collection, by the way, YUKI-san. I also listened to Sasagawa Mao's new album which you might have known of him from last year with me mentioning about his composition to Natsukawa Shiina's album last year and making waves in Klassic Note, is supposed to release his full album... next month and I did not know this is a digital pre-release, ended up giving a couple of songs not realizing maybe it's better to give this a month and half down the road when I don't have anything to listen to. And the thought of reviewing Ueda Reina's 1st album from listening to a song from her radio show on Thursday might be better. Oh well, convinced myself to have to listen the former because it's released on date. Boy was I wrong haha I have not listened to Ueshama yet by the way

Time for more news about music from Twitter! Hey it's not all from there and it's not all new releases but we try to find them if possible. Yogee New Waves' new EP will release beginning on March and it's confirmed to somehow only have digital and vinyl but not CD or other physical medium so don't ask me why. It's got new songs so I take them. yucat's new music video is for an English version of her song in her debut album I think? So yeah, didn't like that song though so lyrics change won't mean much lol. I was listening to some Kajiura Yuki-sensei's Anime music because damn you should too hopefully throuugh official means, and found out that her (now only) supervised group FictionJunction is getting a new album in April this year after 9 years not having one and you bet I've listened to that waaaaay back then I can't even. Well, it's just Kalafina but with more people to be honest so HYPE!! *laughs* Waki Azumi's new song will be for Anime so yay what else is new lol, for once yuiko-san is getting herself a place in upcoming Comiket in April which also means she is promising more new music which will be rather exciting considering her solo songs were just like, the one from last year so far and I would love more to be honest. TrySail revealed a new double A-side single due May during their live tour this weekend and this will likely start their year of new songs, though I would argue it might be a bit late but yeah they gotta finish the live tour and take a break so that's understandable.

So next week, I guess we will be listening to a slew of just singles thank goodness haha this was supposed to be the highlight week of the month. ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION's new single is for Anime so my hopes aren't too high anymore see you guys in the next album haha, Kitou Akari's new single did get me with the topic song a bit so let's hope it carries, or else Uesaka Sumire's new single got me better so let's hope I can ship either (or both) of them with Kana-chan's new single. Yeah, that's how boring the rest of February is going to be haha Ueshama will be then I guess




And boy sorry for the late post but I doubt anyone is waiting besides myself lol, because I was dragged by my mom to whatever community dinner (for senior citizens) and our whole family begrudgingly joined in only for me to be blasted music on my right ear for about 3 hours in the evening because we sat nearest to the front. *sigh* I promised myself to be happy this year, by the way. *laughs* Thanks mom, now that we just won a new toaster I guess we're having bread for breakfast for the next few months. *silence* See you guys next time then, my life is as exciting as I just need to agree to say yes and leave the damn house, but until next time hope for next week I can actually spend more time at home and... maybe fix this blog loading also to be honest. I hope I did something yesterday to speed this up, but I'm not sure, can't be as fast as that Qwik framework that has been gaining in popularity recently I've read up on. Sorry for programming talk but hey if web is still the future then maybe the websites can load faster so I can buy more Tomita Miyu bromides hehe yup she got me again I'm going to order some stuff right now- IS THAT A RAFFLE FOR MIYU-CHAN THAT DID THOSE MARUPI ONES?? Uh oh haha my wallet noooo
