You know how your mom likes to ruin your random Sunday morning? I compensated it with signing up for Kouno Marika's fan... app. *laughs* Yeah, maybe I should talk a little about that she's not going to get a write-up like Inorin and we'll talk about why.In a nutshell, you can see fan content including her self made content, radio shows and photos and images as it's shown similar to her Instagram page... but ONLY using the mobile app, which took me some time to download because it's region blocked but only AFTER I signed up for it without using the app which feels ironic considering that registration should be done on the app so that people will know its restrictions first, and that it also has the same issue on sign up as "Inori Machi" which required a... residential phone number in Japan. So thanks, Inorin! *laughs*
Not going to expect a lot of online content in this though similar to Kitou Akari or even if I don't get to access the fan clubΒ since I can't download the app because honestly, by signing up before next Wednesday? I can get Marinka to write my name on the membership card. This is the best fan club sign up yet HAHAHA *dabs*
Anime and music, shall we? I can't talk about idolism for too long lol yeah tell your past self about this dude *laughs*
cater to her client attract his attention which honestly saying makes her a more prospective partner than someone who is a decade younger than you but thinking back... Does it even make much sense to say that the age gap would link to Ichika being unhappy? I don't know man, you tell me on those 52-25 relationships (common term in Chinese to show significant age gap, but numbers have to be mirrored) if any of them lasted long enough haha. Then again, I don't think that's what the author will be emphasizing because that's every other real life drama series so... yeah, I guess it's Ryou's turn to be confessed to, and think about all the stuff Ichika has been feeling about him from last week haha. Hmm... this is turning out to be more interesting than I thought, this episode. Yeah, it's like this huge trap I'm dropping into it and I can't run away from it and you KNOW it's good so you wouldn't even complain. That's what you call a great Anime production haha no really, this is literally it, the stuff you want to see in a romance series and production really making this scriptwriting flow properly so the drops happen at the right places. And looks like the next episode is the pain episode, not this one apparently. Uh oh, we might... be into more of this huge whirlpool and it's only getting deeper and I LOVE IT haha cya
Anime and music, shall we? I can't talk about idolism for too long lol yeah tell your past self about this dude *laughs*
γ’γγ‘ Koi to Yobu ni wa Kimochi Warui
Please Ichika-chan please say no to this dude please or else I'll stop watching... "There's someone else I like" Okay good *laughs* In this new episode where as you can see... (#KoiKimo09) Wait wait Ryou she can explain!!! *laughs* Uh, is this even infidelity? Ah, probably not, huh. It's complicated, alright?? *laughs* Hey opening theme, took you a while haha okay story. Story goes Ichika was prepared to meet Tamaru for her answer to his confession some time ago, if you would remember last episode basically, and that got her maiden heart troubled *resists to sing opening theme chorus* and people around her too, but she got around it finally, and... yes thank goodness Tamaru got rejected because amongst all things that will make this infinitely more complicated, looks like we're not going in that direction after all. Hmm... And they met Ryou on the way to the station. *laughs* I swear if I'm Tamaru I'll also tell the truth, but I'll also tell Ryou that Ichika liked someone else and if it isn't him... well I'm leaving first bye *laughs* Well, thank goodness this series isn't like this, amirite?? So yeah, Tamaru told Ryou off somehow because he technically is always throwing his weight around even if he sees a little of a love rival, and that I think that might be what the author is trying to convey to us: Those subtle advances or not, and Ryou's exaggerated reactions to them, whether Ichika is okay with it or not. Because seriously, till the end if he is concerned about her affairs, he shouldn't even let Ichika worry about... you know, him. Liking him or not or whatever, Ryou shouldn't really be talking his way into his crush who, even at this point, is only doing nothing but pushing him away. For Ichika though... I mean, it's complicated, it'll take a while, so we will have to wait haha. So yeah, turns out Tamaru is the good guy haha what. *laughs* Talking about good guys, the students were good enough to help out the useless teacher (lol) to draw up the classroom whiteboard for their seniors' graduation, just like how it's normally done if you didn't know about those. Yeah, the drawings (On the chalkboard? For goodness sake, who uses those?) will be gone by the end of the day so it's a kinda wasted effort for decoration, but you know, Rio just "negotiated" some drinks for the three... for all those who participated haha so like five people once the other two joined. Before that though, since this was after the rejection from Ichika, she and Tamaru are just acting weird in front of Rio, who again, besides concerned about her friend, may have been pushy about her personal affairs. Surprisingly though, it's Ichika who managed to settle it herself, so good on you girl, the friend wouldn't have to worry about her in the first place, to be honest. Just that you know, awkwardness after that drop will be unavoidable, so it's that transition phase to get through, I guess. I mean, I don't experience that stuff so you tell me. *wink* (Well mine was way more awkward so) Anyways, moving on, Ryou has a presentation to give. To Ichika. About White Day. What. *laughs* Okay Ryou listen up: It was a great Valentine's Day gift from Ichika-chan but you don't have to make yours a presentation or anything Ichika's wasn't that complicated lmao. No really, it's very simple; I can explain this using 0 presentation slides haha ANYWAYS we are still hinted of Ichika's feeling towards this jerk which till this day still is her definition of love which I must say, I'm so sorry for your high school days because this guy just crashed in and straight off ruined it lol. Then again, tell me which kids nowadays weren't dating before they graduate middle school? Haha okay maybe it's just me. Also, who's that dude watching over them at the cafe?? *laughs* Last but not least, and man was I excited when I hear her talk to herself in the bathroom, it's Matsushima's "date" with Ryou. So yeah, the dude doesn't know he's going for drinks with her only (oh?), Matsushima got so nervous she had to go to the toilet and thankfully didn't come up with more makeup or something lol (Isn't that what most girls do? I don't know haha), and then slipping into her talk with Ryou's crush which she did hear of previously, confessed to him (yes!) and asked... what's the difference between her and Ichika... apparently. Yes, and this has to happen sooner or later, she also did the age gap mention. So, in an effort to find Ryou out, which is why Matsushima keeps asking questions so she can"Are you sure you want to do it here?" Oi Tamaru you can't say that- Hey Ryou nononononono (Haha)
Ryou how can you be around with so many women(?) I don't even know I'm not even around ONE *sob* |
P.P.S. "I think it's even more immature for you (Ryou) to use your older age against me (Tamaru)" How many female fans do you think Tamaru has killed with this one liner? *giggles* Not me I'm totally hetero *laughs*
["Can it not be me?" Man Matsushima Kana-chan if you had confessed to me BEFORE you got married IRL I wouldn't even say no *laughs* I KNOW!! ARGH SCREW ICHIKA AMIRITE?? That'll be me if I possessed Ryou lol]
γ’γγ‘ Hige wo Soru. Soshite Joshikousei wo Hirou.
Well worst case scenario to Yoshida is just his house gets messy again, isn't it? But hey, this time around, I'm pretty sure someone else around him will help him with housework. Willingly, even. *giggles* Hey, in this new episode (#HigeHiro08) where I almost forgot Sayu just avoided her brother stomping into her place of work and got guarded by the guy who raped her before lol (hey this series is complicated, what can I say), she still dared to walk down the streets buying groceries with the bodyguards searching for her around town?? Man, this is dumb haha. Anyways, Mishima to the rescue since she was watching movies alone? (I'm so sorry for you, girl, but if you really need a date I can join you haha call me Aozaki-senpai *dabs*) Sayu spotted the brother again, and of course, since Mishima kinda knows something about her thanks to Yoshida, she helped her hide in a karaoke bar instead of going straight home? I don't know if that is good or not but hey, maybe the brother already stoked out the abode so they can't go back? Hey Anime logic you tell me. Anyways, we're obviously not here to sing songs because Mishima is too old to know what kids want these days (okay can we stop with the burns here? *laughs*) so yeah, hard to avoid not talking about her situation and I mean Sayu's, considering the minimum room time is an hour I assume? So yeah, Mishima asked about Sayu's current situation right now, and of course realizing that someone is coming for this girl means she doesn't have much time left, just like how we found that out since last week. Just that yeah, it's way faster than you think. "So think right now, girl." Oh yeah, you bet assertive Mishima is pushing it. Hey, she's getting the most out of this hour of karaoke session she gotta get her answer out of someone and it's not Yoshida so... *laughs* Because how to say, no matter where this goes, whether is Sayu never wanting to go back so she can carve out a life here in Tokyo, or going back and face the consequences potentially, she still has to make a decision that everyone can follow her through so you know, she can actually move in the direction that she desires, hopefully not getting her rear ripped open, for her sakes. *laughs* But meanwhile, while we get this over with, Yoshida is here to save her every single time, and that people around her including Mishima are only going to get sadder about this wonderful relationship which is somehow right now, slowly becoming an obligation. (Remember, it was really just because Yoshida took a JK in for the night OUT OF PITY so she wouldn't stay on the streets) And Mishima cried. Yep, second guessed that from a mile away where Sayu's brother was standing lol. Damn, Yoshida, you don't know how many girls you have made cry just not in front of you haha *sigh* Anyways, moving on, and probably the highlight of the episode because why not some fanservice while we're at it, it's summer! But instead of going to the beach because looks like we don't have much time to be ogling at bikini but seriously imagine how great it would've looked on Gotou-san (hahahahahaha) AND they be going to the summer festival together- WHAT DID WE JUST SAY ABOUT NOT F**KING AROUND BECAUSE THERE ISN'T MUCH TIME LEFT?? *laughs* Hey, don't quote me on this but we gotta see some yukata shot first before we send her home haha. *Anime director mode activated* The couple had a wonderful time of course, Yoshida almost came with excitement and I'm pretty sure he's into JKs now lol, Sayu is enjoying her time with Yoshida somehow while totally forgetting her objectives at this point, and I think we have been given enough hints about what Mishima is talking about them being psychologically bounded together at this point or whatever. It may not be obvious, but man, is it showing. And guess who dropped by the next day at Yoshida's place. *laughs* All in all... great development we have here in terms of plot. Finally, FINALLY, we are getting to the main point. But as you can see, a lot of loose ends that refuse to be tightened, or even be untangled so I won't say too much because I'd like to see the upcoming episodes do it for themselves, so hopefully we will see a great ending ahead of us, whether good or bad. Especially important, considering the original novel series has ended. Yes, I think I may have mentioned that in passing, but yeah, this is probably the only show this season I watch that will have a canon ending. Hopefully. We don't know. If not, I also don't know how you can settle this now the brother's up on stage. Hey, we shall see, we shall see."Yoshida-senpai's not going to drop dead if you (Sayu) don't do the chores" Haha Mishima best joke this episode lol but what if he does... *laughs*
This is not even a triangle relationship... |
P.P.S. *Mishima sees the two lovey-dovey* "Mishima, you want to join us (for dinner)?" NO haha Mishima I feel you girl (Damn, when this is all over I'll be all over him- speaking as Mishima btw lol)
[I legit feel bad for Mishima I want to hug her to console her so here's her crying]
Like seriously Yoshida, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?? Ugh |
γ’γγ‘ Osananajimi ga Zettai ni Makenai Love Comedy
Okay let us list down the number of times Sueharu has been lied to just for the years he has lived.*laughs* But hey, you're still young bro you can still be lied to to join the entertainment industry- Ah. *laughs* In this new episode where I think we should really encourage more violence than talk because I'm getting bored of the dialogues already lol (#OsaMake07), I really thought we will move on from last"Then why did you lie to me?" And I like how Kuroha is like "go figure it out" haha THIS is what it's like to be a dude, ladies. You keep telling us to use our man brains when it's smaller than an ant's lmao
Hey this is not what is on my Minase Inori calendar of October 2021!! lol |
P.P.S. "I'm allies with which side is more interesting" Haha Tetsuhiko that sounds like author talk right there lol
[There's a lot of good scoop great parts to talk about this episode using images I don't know what I should put in so... KUROHA GET IN HERE haha]
On things concerning music that is on Twitter and I swear it's getting thinner in recent weeks, I'll talk about cinema staff's new EP releasing next week later, Taketatsu Ayana is releasing a concept album in September ironically not consisting of new songs but just songs that bear the concept of "food" as the theme apparently and of course includes a couple of new songs, Kouno Marika's new single preview is a total meh it's totally just Anime theme song cr*p so nope (haha), LuckLife is releasing another new song end of June which I swear their new album or something is near it has been a while, since I've literally given Tomiya Miyu's new music video I guess I'll be listening to her first album end of next month, Sambomaster is releasing a new song in a couple of weeks for some local drama so I'll listen to it then, and I guess if you are interested in Rayflower or SID you can listen to their member combined group fuzzy knot's 1st album trailer on YouTube because it isn't too bad I might just listen to it.
So for next week as mentioned above if you didn't read it, cinema staff's new EP is finally something to wait for because they came up with no releases last year besides singing for that pandemic so ugh haha, and since Teshima Aoi's best album is out soon and I've listened to her all this while I should give this veteran a listen. Besides, it's been a long time since I hear of some emotional and/or soft tunes so she might be able to provide some. This year's special compilation, if more songs enter that can fit in, will likely feature soft tunes, so I'm trying to add more to the collection, so to say.
Oh, how was this week? Well, for starters, the company I work in did enforce some work from home policy, but sadly, that does not mean I don't have to go back to office now because it's alternate days, so basically I can list it out now, (for at home) it's 2 and 4 for this week and alternate for next week. And that's it, because that might be how long the restrictions apply so I assume they won't extend this further. This week though? It was implemented on Monday go office, my first day work from home was on a Wednesday which is a public holiday so Tuesday go office, and the rest of the week was holiday or work leave... well, almost. *laughs* Because some idiot client decided to do testing because they think they can push the project to go live early by this week and I'm the only one in charge of the thing... yeah. *laughs* Well don't worry though since I worked from home this whole time, and yes, I got my leave back because f**k this shit man haha
You don't know how much I want Minase Inori to do any of these (Tehe) |
Well, let's talk about the songs I listened this week, I guess. It's not much but Polkadot Stingray's new EP did take the spotlight, so I'm basically just listening to their songs for the week... until if I get burnt out I'll just stop but you know, the release didn't really have all new songs one of them was a remix and I just ended up going back to the album last year to listen to it instead haha. No Klassic Note Review though, even though it was close. So yeah, that was something. What wasn't something was Komatsu Mikako's new single in 3 years because it's only available in physical. Yes, it's still at that stage. If you see the TOYS FACTORY website listing the single even the digital downloads were greyed out. You get it right? They are popularity testing this release for her return of solo music career, so it took me a while to leech off the Internet community to listen to this just this weekend alone and... I'm glad I didn't have to buy it the B-side wasn't even great lol (The signing event livestream IS great though hehe I just want to see more of her huh)ι³ζ₯½ This Week on Klassic Note

Okay, the intro was more interesting, isn't it? Haha hey at least I know the next package is assembling like those superhero movie series you all love and I don't, so yeah, hopefully we can get it together by the end of this month this literally just appeared today. I guess Japanese don't take breaks huh lol cya guys next week then take care...!!!~ (Oh that signed card is only appearing in September ie. October before I see it for myself so I'll live on till then... lol)
P.S. The Marinka fan app FYI was (1) because her current talent company and one she changed to a year ago is pushing fan club apps for most of their talents she was in round 2 and (2) the developers were also behind mainstream artist fan club apps so yeah I rather sign up for thisΒ give money to her lmao
So, uh, "hotmail.com" is okay though?? Haha no really I thought this wouldn't pass but I registered using this domain |
P.P.S. Oh her first fan club livestream is on Tuesday, where I work from home and it's June 1st? I asked a question (in Japanese) using the app just now I hope she will look at it lol I asked why the lack of wearing skirts lmao haha is this sexual harassment (I am curious though!! It's summer too so there's no excuse lol)
