The Entertainment News 2022 Edition Issue #36

Sunday, 04 September 2022
I really wouldn't have thought that I would be able to continue watching Anime on Sundays my way ie. this post after whatever happened to my main PC on Thursday when I couldn't even power it on and sparks are sounding in the power socket.

*silence*

It was the PSU, yes, thanks for troubleshooting. *laughs* I just had to lug this damn thing to the service centre to get it fixed. Luckily, instead of 3 business days they decided to fix it in one Saturday afternoon because it's literally just replacing this one thing, and we're good. Had to go down twice in one afternoon though; That was a waste of public transport resources- This is what they refer to as warranty?? *laughs* Well, still better than the previous times I had to service computers and they said no lol

Okay, talk over, let's Anime and music! Legit thought of significantly reducing this write-up IF yesterday's case were to take 3 days. Of course, this isn't as important compared to what will be on my phone wallpaper next week- I HAVEN'T EVEN PLANNED IT YET!! Haha don't worry I actually did and including the birthdays next week we'll talk about them by then




をニパ Kanojo, Okarishimasu
"I know I crossed the line there. But I don't want to lose" I mean Ruka-chan, the way you win is to win over Kazuya. The family don't matter...? Yeah Japan huh haha
Just, imagine making out this desperately with Touyama Nao. I want you to picture it. *laughs* Okay we don't have that in real life so yeah, Ruka-chan!! *laughs* In this new episode (#KanoKari22) where yes thanks for asking because doing ecchi stuff behind peoples' backs is THE BEST haha okay me. Also, that's how you prove animation is trash because that voice acting though...!!! Haha we can't talk about this all day, so let's move on. Literally though, for this episode? Again, I probably mentioned this last week, Kazuya letting the family know who's his actual girlfriend right now would solve pretty much everything. But instead of that, we are till date still stuck in the limbo area of the illusion that Kazuya is dating Chizuru. Firstly, for Ruka-chan. She's desperate. *laughs* But yeah, I can only say this much though, that you can only get his heart, and it's just not working out for you. Not that Kazuya is not woke about it, but it's definitely not working out. Even then though, and if just literally getting the guy to have babies with you (lmao) I don't think will change his mind. But not like he's not aware about it though, letting this illusion stay as is. Then, there's the elderly. Both their grandmothers are still under the reality thinking that their next generation are hanging out well and thus can continue the family line for the better. For the better even, this just sounds like too good of a reality that Kazuya's grandmother would rather give out her family heirloom which is a ring apparently haha of all things, to this prospective granddaughter-in-law. She won't be, spoiler alert haha I don't know to be honest, but even then, because she reached the same idolism level as Kazuya is with this beautiful woman, one cannot help but give all of themselves to them, as if this will be the only opportunity upon them. Not wrong though, even grandma Sayuri rather just let her granddaughter go hang out with the future in-law to make this reality happen. Last but not least, for Chizuru. Remember this was about just rental girlfriend and how she was accidentally introduced to the family of Kazuya as a real one? Yeah, looks like as of now, Chizuru is changing her mind about this. Of course, it's for the grandmother we will only get this tsundereΒ woman to look back at this jerk 20 more seasons from now lmao, so now it's just total white lie territory, as much as the guy wants to back out for the sake of everyone. Again, the sadness gotta happen once, right? Whenever it is. It's just too big of a lie that Chizuru rather keep it to her elderly till her grave, and maybe then she won't come back with vengeance to haunt her kids about how the family line was not cemented in place before her departure. Not gonna elaborate on this part, but you get the idea. All in all, the monologues are real long, the kissing scene is the best though kiss long enough and we might get Kazuya to spill the beans faster haha I mean they can tell everyone apart from grandma Sayuri... right?? Well someone's gonna screw up the secret but that's not on him. *laughs* Anyways, I'm gonna go back to make out with Ruka-chan if you don't mind so don't ponder too much about the future, yes? Alright lol
P.S. "Who would give an engagement ring to a girlfriend who just turned 20?" Hmm good question haha not impossible though how old were the the couple in "ToniKawa"?? Haha
P.P.S. "I would have let Chizuru skip my funeral for (the birthday party)" Yeah okay grandma Sayuri you can't make jokes like this lol she is your only relative

をニパ Mamahaha no Tsurego ga Motokano Datta
"This is my first time in a guy's room" Man, hearing this out of Hidaka Rina after I watched Anime "Komi-san" is kinda unreal lol "This is my first time having a girl in my room too" O~kay you bunch of normies haha
Oh you guys kissing too? Middle schoolers, by the way. *where is my childhood* Haha in this new episode where "the love is dead" but actually it isn't lol (#TsureKano09) because instead of a heart transplant we just have re-marriage of their parents. Nothing wrong with that. *giggles* We get to know more about how this all happened though, in basically what was another flashback episode- Hey, they can only do flashbacks, okay? They can't be together now there is no return. *laughs* Anyways, looks like we finally reached the conclusion of how their breakup came about. And if I should summarize this? I would say it didn't end because of them not having any love for each other as with previous episode can easily disprove this, but that they have grown up. In their final year of middle school where they were having a time of their life, firstly, they were in different classes. Maybe Yume-chan was right about being in the same class having its benefits, because you know, if she did make any new friends and spent more time with them thus may~be neglecting the maybe boyfriend? Haha, at least he would've known, and just joined in on the fun. And this would've been a different story. Okay, it won't, they may have to keep mum about their relationship, but that's not why we are here for, is it? *giggles* But maybe Mizuto was also right about his own actions which he regretted on, from not accepting of her newly made friends and maybe end up with a harem such that he can piss Yume-chan off so much they break up earlier? Haha ah hey. *laughs* But yeah, maybe this segregation in the first place was a bad idea. And then my argument is of course of all misunderstandings, they were not as grown up. So a girl sitting beside Mizuto in the library means cheating on her, and making things up but not holding her hands again even after the apology. Something's already odd here so I don't think I want to explain it to you too clear. So at the graduation ceremony, they did the fastest of breakups in Anime history lol not that I've experienced much of these to be honest haha, and walked their own ways... only to be dragged back into the reality where their parents love each other. I KNOW RIGHT DAD WHAT THE F- All in all... And that's why you shouldn't have friends. *laughs* Yeah, just have a boyfriend or girlfriend like a real normie. Everything else, not important. *giggles* But of course, they can regret as much as they want of the past, but I would say though, that the love between them has not ceased, and maybe, just maybe the sibling relationship will make this less of a joke moving on. For now though, I'm just glad they can still mock on each other on a daily basis even though we know they both lost. Lost big time. Haha let's see how much more they can screw up next week oh Yume-chan call Mizuto "onii-chan" and only then you can touch the books on the shelf lol *dabs* We still playing this huh
P.S. "Don't ever bring another girl in here? I'll be mad" Uh, about that, Yume-chan... *laughs* Shout out to last week with Isana breaking this rule- Haha Mizuto just smiled HAHAHA it's like he knows
P.P.S. "I'm sure your parents will start to worry if it gets any later" Yeah b*tch you have a curfew lol and DON'T YOU DARE HAVE SEX WITH ME IN HERE lol okay me "I came here that day completely ready for it" Wait, for what? Haha stupid middle schoolers

をニパ Warau Arsnotoria Sun!
"Excitement!" Yeah same dear fairies haha me if I see snow in this tropical country
Yes, it snows also in... I forgot the name Arsham Ashram? Yeah, flying castle still subject to gravity, dude. *giggles* So, in the winter episode of this wonderful series where I mean you can guess what is up next (#Arusuno09), it's snowing outside what else are we going to do? Go for lessons? *Pft* Haha ah hey, I mean, Solow is probably right as Headmaster to do things like this as in, let everyone play with snow for the day seeing that it hardly snows in this magical school apparently once in a century, and Hammit-san isn't disapproving of it so screw that PUSH PERDURA THE CAT INTO THE SNOW and let's have some fun! *laughs* We did go from having a lot of fun just playing with snow to like, building igloos and slides though haha wtf, so yeah, stop thinking about the other girls who were introduced into the Anime because I really don't care lol, let's talk about the Select's adventure to get some real gold. Gold as in the finest snow that no one has trampled on haha, so not the ones in the courtyard of course, not the ones Paulina has landed in falling from the library tower and only being discovered after a while because she is so far up the deep layer of snow it'll take fairies to dig her out. *laughs* But the girls wanted some clean snow to have some shaved ice in (well Mell-chan wanted it lol), so they thought the highest point of the school would be a wise choice. They weren't wrong, they probably didn't have to go that high up to get it considering only they appeared in such places if it wasn't Paulina's minions who looked around for help for her initially haha, would they still be stuck in the snow following a pending storm calling upon all students to go back to their dorms just because. It didn't take long for everyone to be called inside thanks to the fairies who acted as the relay system haha they are the best, but what was even better about the fairies is that bunch who were digging up snow and spotted the Selects up the highest point in school. They dug up a hole for them to avoid the winds, gave them tea and snacks to chew on so goddamn even in danger they can have afternoon tea lmao, and Paulina did eventually get to them before Death does, I guess. All in all, I think I need to remind myself to watch more slice-of-life series. It's a genre I've learnt to adore, and I wonder how much of this I would have missed if not for finding out who voiced Pica-chan in the first place. But none of them are quite like this series, where they forego all the action in the video game it's based on, and just give you some wholesome school life content without much frill or weird isekai content I'll have to live with. I mean, this is technically in another world but we are close to London so I guess not? Haha you can't prove me wrong there is no isekai in the title. *giggles* Everyone had a part in each episode, it just warms the heart to watch this and not have to think of the craziness happening with the other shows I'm watching this season. Such peace, I'll only have that many weeks left to enjoy. See you again for more.
P.S. "There is so much to choose from I'm puzzled" Haha same Tori-chan literally anyone at a buffet "It's all the same once it's in your stomach" Oi Mell-chan haha
P.P.S. "If you put jam in, it's Russian-style tea" Oh really? I know we might get political but let me find out how to do this I think we have jam in the fridge hehe

をニパ Lycoris Recoil
"My gratitude for Yoshi-san and (Mika) won't change, even after hearing all that. You two are my dads."
Ah, bad news is upon us. LycoReco is closing down. Damn. I haven't even had anything from there yet. I mean, Japan just opened their borders and I can't already? What a disappointment. *laughs* In this new episode where all great things must come to an end (#LycoReco10), yes we talking about the cafΓ© first. Now THIS is called plot progression. "Engage Kiss", learn a thing or two, would ya? *laughs* Okay, instead of sh*tting on another Anime coincidentally aligned with this masterpiece at this point lol, let's talk about what this has done correct. Firstly, about the reveal. I'll start with a question: At what point of this episode did you confirm your suspicions of Majima being one of the Alan Institute children? Hm? If it was when he was talking to Yoshi-san, and you didn't need more reasons to know why, you are spot-on. It also didn't take long for Mika-san to actually have to tell the real story to Chisato, how he was in charge of Chisato as a kid Lycoris, how he sought to prolong her life and power through the Alan Institute and thus the help from Yoshi-san, and how Chisato's life so far has been dictated by not just the DA, but the two dads she loved and treasured the most so far. Was it wrong to not be in her choice though? In her defence, she then talked about the stuff she did afterwards having this hideout of a cafΓ© and people to hang out with as she sees the many regulars walk in on the day they posted a notice about its closure, still could not compare to what started it all: giving Chisato life. As I mentioned before, all of this could have ended years ago, and maybe Majima would have really made a mess long time before now. But guess who we got as backup. *laughs* Next up, what happens to the superior power in an emergency. As much as the DA tries to get Majima and his gang they barely did but not to definitive success of course, but that doesn't stop them to control Majima as much as possible even without a hacker on their side. Well, not like Kurumi is going to entertain any number of them she is in Germany by now playing board games so yay? *laughs* Oh well, maybe that's the upside the baddies have on the DA, Robota is technically the best in Japan now. And I guess we really have no choice but to "deploy" Chisato now just so the DA can assure its mission of not spilling the beans about this fictional Japan's peace. Last but not least, to let Chisato come to a conclusion. Of course, don't expect her to fulfil her duty to help the DA at any point haha she will anyways, but she WILL definitely save Yoshi-san tied to a bomb first. And that's why you don't kidnap their closest kin; Their family will be sure to hunt you down. *laughs* I know right, what are they thinking anyways. All in all, I'm still surprised why this backstory doesn't involve a politician who is just mad right now. *laughs* Okay maybe it's that boss of Kusunoki but- Too real, huh. Let's come back to this original Anime. I would say with such plot development and seeing how like, figureheads drop in to converse with one another I mean you should've noticed Kusunoki convincing this terrorist to think otherwise is also a cover for tracking their physical location which in case you don't know is super f**king hard today lol also we don't have Walnut, it just feels more like an action series to me, seeing the levels of the onion peel off as we see more panic reside. Japan will be fine with knowing that they have been protected so far, but more importantly, we just hope the local law enforcement can be careful in pulling out their guns to kill, just like Chisato I'm pretty sure she will with the baddies soon. See you for the heated action then.
[TL:DR; You know why they have removed Kurumi and Mizuki out of this equation, right? One's a hacker who could not help anyone anyways because they are dead, and the other would be too distracting I would mistake this as "Engage Kiss"-]
P.S. "I guess I'll go meet that hunk in Vancouver who I met in a dating website" Wow Mizuki my future is bleak compared to yours- Oh he doesn't want you? *laughs*
P.P.S. "I can make a (flight) ticket for you" Haha yeah this Kurumi an do anything even forged documents-

をニパ Engage Kiss
"Of course I'll get lazy" HELL YEAH, uh, I mean, Hail Mary lol
Ah yeah, in case you wondered where Kanna-san is... I guess the intro is clear enough. Man, legit thought Kisara would do real well as Shuu's sister but *welp* Haha in this new episode where we proceed towards the final part of this demon hunting I assume (#EngageKiss10), like seriously man, everyone who talks to Shuu nos I get pissed, I can't explain why. *laughs* Okay okay ignoring that, we got a mystery to solve. Oh we did that last week? But this will redeem itself, trust me. Let's wrap this up so we can go to the final battle. Hey, Shuu said it's final with his weak memories, it's gotta be. *laughs* Okay, plot talk. Uh... it's complete now? But yeah, still, with like, now I think I know why Mikhail is the centre of representation of the government along with Linfa who helped out with Ayano in figuring out the location of Kanna-san who is apparently alive and probably Shuu's sister I guess it did come from the same father. *silence* Anyways, the idea is that the father mayor is useless, and the grandfather when he was mayor did some terrible things to protect this City from the demon threat that is Asmodeus. But looks like, even if this mission isn't to save the sister... stepsister lol not ex though *dabs*, it is probably still to stop all this by eliminating this final threat... or are we even able to? As Sharon has described considering she's the only one with the history books haha she doesn't hold anything else though especially chastity lmao ok please focus, it looks like we are just dealing a rebirth of a demon in disguise that has been around for... well, since forever, and Shuu's dad did do something to ensure that demon entity who has been possessing his wife for a while, cannot continue to exist in this world. It did disappear, but what was left was the problem. So as you can see, we have basically two factions of people right now even if they are going to fight in front of the mine which was buried deep in the ocean haha, people who want to not approach the demon so that it would not be awakened and thus summon demons into the world to you know, destroy all humans haha come on Sharon you think coexistence can be a thing? And people who want to save Kanna-san. So not the demon inside her. And with that, I guess Shuu might actually have to lose all of his memories to power up Kisara to do this...? All in all though, and I guess we have a clearer picture right now of what is happening from the two factions at this point even AAA was suspected to side with Shuu's side of saving the kid, still could not do anything because didn't a demon and human fight right in front of the demon entity to wake it up? I mean, what are we to do now? *laughs* Oh well, might as well take it down I guess, and maybe save Kanna-san in the process. You think Shuu has enough memories to communicate some sense into the not sister? I don't know man, it's all in a mess I would someone would stick a demon spear into me lol oh Shuu's dad what have you not done to make sure history doesn't repeat itself
[TL:DR; "A world where human and demons are hand in hand, living together in harmony" I mean, isn't Kisara and Shuu the perfect example though? Hmmmm hey even more so if you count Hanamura Junya and his demon partner, was it? Yeah but they died though lmao *shrugs* Maybe the conclusion of this Anime is the start to this vision, for better or for worse]
P.S. "This thing has appeared countless times, created countless Demons and brought chaos into this world" Yeah, just give Asmodeus a call and she will deliver, no questions asked lol you think someone summoned her this time or it's just the Orgonium?
P.P.S. "So, you're choosing a man over friendship, huh?" Well... Kinda you're right haha but also the truth this government had way too many lies and you're one of them so
[You see, the reason why I hated this storytelling of the reveal is because there isn't some old dude who would say "let's talk things out" lol sorry I gotta]

音ζ₯½ This Week on Klassic Note
This week ended just nice in time for August, that doesn't mean it won't slip into the new month here, but yeah, we end the month with some Anime theme songs. Thanks to a YouTube video I went back to listen to another Hitsujibungaku release from 2019Β (year confirmed, their official website screwed up they wrote 2018) and did not manage to pick up more songs haha maybe it's too happy in mood? Well, moving on, we have Anime "Arusuno" opening theme song sung by the five main characters in the series... it's only single track unless you consider the solo version tracks but otherwise I don't review Anime releases so this is one of those too. What can be in review though is MIMiNARI's debut EP which featured collaboration vocals by the way these guys aren't singing their own tunes, is interestingly focused on impact of their... pop-rock style songs which I can take a fancy to, but only picked up another song just because melody, I guess. It's got potential though, I can say that much. And be sure to check out the recent Klassic Note ReviewΒ from last month thank goodness it arrived, where I talk about how much I like Asakura Momo and newcomer Ishihara Kaori- Did I mention she was born in the same year as me? Okay affinity talk get out haha

Hmm let's see what we have on the news column on Twitter ie. my own Twitter Likes feed haha, TrySail's recent live from 2021 is on music streaming services so audio but it's still good to listen because someone got real high it broke Nan-chan lol, Polkadot Stingray's new song is okay and we'll get to it when the album drops next week, Kitou Akari's new song teaser isn't much but looks like we're not going for the cool image now we have day night themes this time around for her upcoming album in October, Kouno Marika's new single trailer is on YouTube now and hmm I guess it isn't bad at all so we will be listening to it when it comes out in October, yucat teased on new songs and even her own music label with an actual artist under her name I am not joking she intends to manage the artists and including RYTHEM which is on its way back from this year on, and goddamn Uesaka Sumire's new music video is a beautiful mess of punk rock music if you're into that. I mean... yeah? Haha I listen to Anime "K-ON!" music, does that count? *laughs* We also have Ueda Reina's new music video which I intend to review the mini-album next month, and man, RIRIKO-sensei at it again, if you don't get it go read the Klassic Note Review and you'll understand, she wrote for one of her singles for Anime "MajoTabi" too. Definitely a different feel though, don't know if it'll stick by the time I have to come around to it to be honest.

So next week, we getting rid of harmoe's new single out of the way because they are an obligation after I rejected DIALOGUE+ and I still have a hard rule of giving any theme song from all the Anime I watch so Anime "TsureKano" by the way it's not bad though I just don't care (lmao), we will be listening to Polkadot Stingray's new album which is much anticipated considering what I heard of on YouTube as mentioned last week so that's cool, so I hope it won't lose to the likes of Creepy Nuts new album who at this point is already giving me more songs since June when I knew of them and probably more even though I didn't watch Anime "Yofukashi no Uta" which they are primed to write songs for and maybe the bulk of this particular release. Well, not putting my hopes too high, I guess we are all going to get trashed by Aizawa Saya's new cover song as mentioned during an Anime "Engage Kiss" livestream on Monday and will be released in full on her birthday which is upcoming Friday so sure, I'll give cover songs again. For Kisara, I mean, so not her. Well... depends on how you see it lol (Ironically still unannounced yet though haha I assume this was supposed to be a birthday surprise and they just leaked themselves...?) (HELL YEAH lol can we not)




And I guess that's it. I am still STOKED how I can still write this post as usual this week without skipping a beat. Well, I skipped half a day of beat and literally did nothing on two nights after work just because all I could do on that Surface Pro is watch YouTube videos. Haha trust me this sh*tty m3 Pro 4 can only do one thing at a time real well, any more and it'll just get a fever and die just like me. *dabs* See you next time again, and hopefully by then, hopefully, I'll be drowning in Saya-chan or whatever I'm into now because yeah, the cover song, please. Haha cya then
