Sunday, 12 May 2024
I'm already having dreams of not being able to watch all the Anime weekly on Sundays. *sob* Maybe I just need my coffee fix. *looks at table* Got it! *laughs*

So yeah, I think I'm okay now, need to monitor myself as usual and probably my future ahead of me this year which isn't the worst thing by comparison, but seeing how the world out there is somewhat on fire despite not having a pandemic roaming the lands (and seas), I wonder how I can even survive till next year to do most of my tech upgrades. *silence* We will deal with that in due time.

Meanwhile! *giggles* We got Anime and music to talk about, so let's!




ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย One Room, Hiatari Futsuu, Tenshi Tsuki.
"Cupid is basically a baby" - Tokumitsu Shintarou, 2024
I like how Shintarou's balcony is like, angel bait. *laughs* Oh, you guys are leaving already? *laughs* In this new episode where well I guess Heaven found out about this harem lmao (#TenshiTsuki06), but also true that they had to send someone down when you haven't been reporting back, Towa-chan. You gotta tell your evil elder sister that you are- Wrong show that's Anime "KanaTen". *laughs* So, let's talk about what happened. Firstly, about Shiu-chan. She cute. *laughs* That's all I can say or maybe about her forehead lmao, because if I describe this little brat of an angel any further this site might get flagged for... something. *laughs* Still, she's here to see how Towa-chan is doing, only to realize she is hanging out with some human male that is out to get her? Yo Shiu-chan, that is IF Shintarou didn't save her from that fat dude, okay? You gotta give him some credit for saving her all this time. And that's also their argument while explaining to the kid (while baiting her with milk lol), that as much as she is in good hands, it's also only in these good hands, which then made them realize maybe, just maybe, Towa-chan should start going around and helping out humans in general. Well, maybe we start from the observations so we know that those fruit sandwiches are actually real and a train stop away. *laughs* You know, don't believe what they say on TV or something blah blah. *laughs* I would argue the smartphone is even worse and maybe Shintarou might want to get Towa here a phone too for communication... but I guess that's another episode in itself. This isn't just a slice-of-life anyways, though I would argue in the second half of this episode, it basically turned into a romance series (as it should be), where the two hang out a bit while Shintarou explains to her everything in the human world we live in. From trains to crepes to don't cycle on the swan boat so fast while wearing a dress lmao *chef's kiss*, it looks like this couple (hehe) is having a great time either way, so I guess it's a win for them. Which one? Yes. *laughs* All in all, I know we had to get to the point of whether to consider Towa-chan's exposure to humans rather limited in her case so far seeing that she should start appealing to the masses, but maybe the turning point is just late. It's just how the story goes and I get that. Shiu-chan is a terrible relationship lightbulb *laughs*, and we're just glad the others aren't here to complicate the heck out of things. I know right, Shiu-chan mind blown of a snow woman? Or maybe she already knew, who knows what's going through this brat's mind. *laughs* Once again, Towa-chan's... little heaven in the human world is likely coming in to a close as long we Shintarou don't just lock her (lmao) in his apartment (I'm calling the cops haha), and maybe then, she can just go around helping others soon. The guy may not remember her mission coming into the human world, but I still do. Not like this harem series is going to help fulfil that within this season but I don't know so... *laughs* I miss Noel-chan already. *laughs*
P.S. "She can't take the bus or train yet!" LMAO Shintarou you her father or something? Well I guess he is her daddy and-
P.P.S. Yes Shintarou, put your shame in and do not teach her about human etiquette first, we need more of the mishaps to justify this as an ecchi series lmao

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid
"According to this (book), I need a mermaid's scale to become human." Hey Amelia, you want to join Daleth so you can reunite with the circus owner? *wink*
I also do not like takoyaki does that mean I'm an ocean preservationist? *giggles* I'll preserver Ueda Reina as much as I am able too lmao, but yeah Amelia is back in the new episode (#ShinigamiBocchan29), but also, Daleth's journey to getting laid. *wink* Hey, it's all connected, you will get it in a bit. For starters, this pair is together mainly because Daleth is in search of a mermaid's scale, part of what her spell book dictates in order for her to become human, to, in case you forgot, be with Walter forever and ever making out- She's married by the way, the voice actress. *laughs* Still, not going to stop her to win an arm wrestling match to get it lol it's complicated, and in exchange, I guess we do have a short conclusion to the relationship between the circus owner and his... wife. Yeah, I mean, they are married, the guy and Amelia. The only true love that's still holding up in this series, by the way. Cuff and Zain don't count. *laughs* Speaking of couples, we are not intending to ruin one but we are likely going to in this dance party that's happening in the main mansion, where Gerbera Bocchan's mom (lol sorry) was preparing to meet with guests, Walter is introducing himself to girls so I'm pretty sure Daleth is crying on the rooftops right now haha poor thing, and Viola is practicing her violin performance as expected of her name...? Well, it's more than that. In it are many emotions we forgot existed, from Philips appearing in front of Bocchan and how we could have cleared up the misunderstandings like, years ago in telling of this story so go watch episode 1 again I think for the lore drop, to like, Viola-chan's incredible personality changes and impersonations haha it's just too good to hear Minase Inori voice this much in an episode she is the real MVP, so looks like this dance party is a mess even without Bocchan and Alice dropping by. Like, from a sofa flying in the sky because Cuff-san brought them here. *laughs* It's interesting to see Daleth have an image change while keeping her usual nun outfit as given by the father we don't want to know who he is anyways, Flea is apparently a legend of its time no wonder he doesn't look much human compared to everyone else, and I also wished I had more kisses than what Sharon did to her daughter. *giggles* All in all, lovely episode to set up for next week still on the dance party but I already wonder what is up next considering most stuff has been covered and had some conclusion unless Daleth and/or Walter wants to pick up their courage to meet each other again lol, or else this is likely a perfectly normal dance floor waiting for disaster to happen. Hey, Sade might be dead but her magic is not, who knows how much magic she has casted before she got rid off by the gang of witches. But yeah more Evelyn please we need to know how the progress of Nico and Ichi's training are coming up on so we can proceed with clearing Bocchan's curse. *wink*
[TL:DR; "The poor helpless maid does whatever her master desires..." This series in a nutshell lmao]
P.S. "Maybe it's time to buy a new outfit..." Yeah I know right this nun's outfit is getting bad reps with your sister wearing them all the time. Maybe wear the swimsuit on the permanent? *dabs* "I like the time we spend like this together." Viola SAME
P.P.S. "This is the hand Walter touched. I can't let anyone else touch it and overwrite that." Well Daleth just chop it off and use magic to replace it-
[Viola-chan MVP special!! Because if there is one thing I want out of this series is a really cute girl hehe]

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Bartender: Kami no Glass
"Marriage, as in, that kind of marriage?" YEAH NO SHIT DUDE
Yeah, marriage as in shotgun wedding or whatever. *laughs* Hey, that is in the dictionary or something. *giggles* We better not find out which weirdo wanted to marry Yukari-chan here in the new episode (#Bartender06), because we got new stories to tell. Yes, Yukari-chan included. Before we start opening the champagnes on her wedding though, let's talk about Hayase. He's a guy. *laughs* Nice guy even, great manager even though it doesn't show on his face so even if he is covering for his subordinates, they will never know. Ironically in contrary of my situation at work haha ah hey, but these bosses are hard to find. Sadly, not like Hayase knows to deal with this contradiction where hey in case you don't know how this works, he is sandwiched between workers and their superiors and that's how this is anyways, has to end up bearing the utmost of pressure, considering he just quit smoking and has no new way to relive his stress no more. Until he saw Eden Hall. Hey, let's say it's a saviour to all people in this series so he's welcome too, but maybe until you stop dunking on people who smoke right beside you, or just maybe moving away from the seat will resolve the issue. Also it's a woman why argue with her anyways? And in case you think I'm rather short-sighted in view for thinking like this, I will always remember how easy it is to hate someone just so you walked into their life thinking they did wrong. What if I told you she was suffering from something and this was the way to relive stress, just like what you did walking into a bar? So yeah, not surprising, Kimishima here (hey yo Kayanon it hsa been a while, such a lovely voice acting isn't it?) long story short just lost a kid she was trying to save and being a doctor, not being able to do that after six months down the road, is such a pain no one can feel other than her. The reward was for the also recently non-smoker a pack of cigars if it can be saved, ended up on the opposite side of the line, and that's why she is just leaving it up instead of toking it. *giggles* Still, obviously it's rude for Hayase to ruin her night as to a lesser extent she has ruined his for sounding hostile too, and the guy wanted to apologize. Well, he got the opportunity, and I'm glad he did it right. And everything else is history. Yeah so is Yukari-chan's marriage, which apparently with much of a fuss ended up being a ruse just because, and she also knew Sasakura saw through her already preparing a drink which has a double meaning behind it, it's made up so that the grandmother will die happy. I mean, what a terrible white lie to do anyways, not like I'll lie to anyone of my marital status I'm a weirdo too maybe Yukari we can get married LMAO, but yeah, not good to lie ironically the opposite of the previous story, and I'm just glad she got around her own emotions. Overall, it's all mellow or even sad stories which is titular of this series haha if you want a happy story look somewhere else thanks, and yeah, the God of Glass is handling them quite well. What worse can we make of this series? No you can't, this series is perfect I really need some time to cry every week and this fits the bill. *laughs*
P.S. "A manager covering up for their staff? No wonder the underlings look up to you." I don't really want to talk about office politics here, but yes. These managers are the best. Bureaucracy sucks anyways.
P.P.S.ย "Don't get so angry just because you can't get your way." This woman, she so brave. *giggles* You think anyone will understand this though?
[Maybe I should do an extra segment talking about cocktail, yes? I may not drink them but I can be cool talking about them- Oh, I don't? *sob*]

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Kuroshitsuji -Kishuku Gakkou Hen-
"Good elephant!" Get it? As in "eraizo" as in close to whatit means in Japanese?? Oh damn, these word puns haha
Oh yeah, the fire. Ciel didn't do it. *laughs* And surprise surprise, in the new episode where we commit arson IN ANIME haha gotta state that first (#KuroshitsujiSchool05), Derrick isn't in there. I mean, if he's in there this would've been too simple of a mystery, isn't it? Hehe, gotta build some tension for this story arc. Yeah, also in the Purple House building but heck, we better not build up fire in there *wink* it's already quite burnt up. *giggles* Sorry for the puns we can move on now, because next up, we got the cricket tournament to deal with. Well, this isn't exactly it we did deal with the investigations we were supposed to do, we just didn't find any Derrick and the other victims in the Purple House we just set up on fire. *laughs* For a recap, we know that to get into the Headmaster's mind we have to see them first, and the easiest way to do that is to kill Clayton and take his place- Nope, not doing that because Weston is rather sensitive to changes in the ranks so that is just more than risky, and the next way, according to McMillian, was to perform outstandingly in front of the Headmaster in the tournament. Okay, that sounds easier to do, just that we have no idea what their idea of MVP is. Yep, defending a ball from the audience is one thing, and next it can be who did the best. So you see, it isn't as simple as you would think. For starters, getting Ciel in as a player in tournament will be NUTS- Not unless you pull some string, he did that before. *giggles* Upon Michealis-sensei's recommendation lmao, Clayton put Ciel on the cricket team of Blue House, in case you forget, isn't a team with brawl or elegance, nor do they play unpredictable tricks up their sleeve to squeeze a win unlike the other houses haha ah hey, but instead, rely on strategy to win. Rather important and vital in the playing of sports, I would say, even rather gentlemanly to pit their wits instead of guts, so yeah, it's not that hard to put Ciel in after all. The cricket training can wait for later we have a demon on our team anyways LMAO, but hey, allow me to talk about the party before the festivities. We are met with a lot of people on the ground which is lovely, but several people would catch our attention, or reversely, the appearance of these main two of the series will hint on something from everyone else attending the dance party but we will put that aside for now. For the former, I'm just glad to see Elizabeth getting happy for Ciel to be in the cricket team and super jealous to whatever Bluewer's sister is pushing their sister to Ciel haha don't even try dear lady Lizzy will eliminate all competition even if it means disappointing the brother LMAO, Bluewer's family of sisters is already a sight to watch oh I haven't seen the credits yet but I don't think I know any of their voices (Edit: Aizawa Saya was in them? BUT WHO THOUGH?? *laughs*), and uh oh looks like we have been found out. *laughs* Oh heck, it's an eventuality the other guys didn't know better lol even Lizzy's brother too? Haha but hey, we aren't here for chit-chat. We are here to know when's the first and hopefully not last time Blue House won the cricket tournament- Wait, what? *laughs* Yup, and as one of the other Lords have spoken about that glorious year, we are also introduced with a character we might know too well of - the Lord Phantomhive at the time. *giggles* All in all, what an uproar of events I can't even haha, but that also means the excitement is coming soon, not until we take a trip down memory lane and talk about- Yeah, his dad has a story though! I almost forgot haha but yeah, looks like we might be delaying the tournament win present day for a bit, so stay along for the lore, yes?
P.S. "I hate to praise you (Sebastian), but that was excellent support." This series in general haha
P.P.S. My guess for which Bluewer sister Aizawa Saya is voicing is... drum roll please, likely the sister who has been dragged in by the elder sister to ask Ciel is he wants her before Lizzy cancelled the heck out of both of them. *laughs* Correct me if I'm wrong, would ya? I've NOT listened enough of Saya-chan's acting voice to know tbh

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Sasayaku You ni Koi wo Utau
"I hoped I would eventually fall in love with Yori-senpai, I figured I had plenty of time to find my answer." Oh no Himari you don't haha says Aki
LOL bitch didn't see it comin' amirite fellas?? *silence* Oh this is a girls love series no guys are watching this. *laughs* I dig for the drama though, as in the new episode (#SasaKoi05) we are reminded of the spiciness they just threw into this pot of fire that is Asanagi Yori (hehe) and the girls around here are just trying to catch it. What though? I wonder. We know about Himari-chan's story on what she is trying to accept and change for/to right now, but heck, we barely scratched the surface between Yori and Aki's relationship. Well, for starters, they are friends. *laughs* Alright we need more than this, but not like we need to know more than just to show how much they are a great pair to Himari-chan I guess. But in case you did not notice, this is more of a one-way train, and as much as Yori is very accepting of Aki's existence just in general, the other way around is apparently more... romantic, I would say. We know that, but also due to Aki's aggression towards Yori's new lover (hehe), it sounds off as a "hey b*tch showdown" kind of feel, which if it doesn't sound intimidating to you, it is to Himari. Momoko-senpai didn't give much solid advice at this point though I would argue apart from not worrying too much which won't work on both sides of this non-relationship lol, but heck, maybe we should start thinking of a better resolution to this so we don't hurt too many people down the line. *silence* Thinking about this though, heck just be like Himari's mom and reject the heck out of the guy until he pushes her to like him. That'll work in this case particularly if you think about it. Ironically, with a deadline being the next performance that Yori-senpai will be in, we might not be too far off that idea. So yeah, meanwhile though, we are still enjoying the times the girls are together in a band, Himari-chan being cute hehe and don't even tell me about her friend Miki-chan LMAO oh that's just me with Koga Aoi, and we did kind of round up on whatever awkwardness which may have spurred out of what innocently looks like girls romance. *laughs* Turns out though, Himari-chan is just enjoying(?) the feeling that Aki-chan might be suffering from too, also known as the j-j-j-jealousy. *hears music playing* Haha alright I better stop here. All in all... yeah Yori-senpai your Himari-chan is trying so hard, isn't it? It's like maxing out using stuff before the trial period's over. *laughs* Also our trial period for not getting dunked on as a band is soon going to be over soon, as the aggression might be coming soon from the other band who hates us for some reason. *giggles* I mean, we can both guess what is happening, but maybe let's make the lore show for itself, yes? If I'm expecting a slap this season it's on the face, I tell ya. Not going to say who though. *laughs* Meanwhile, let's hope the new song will actually be a song that Yori-senpai sings (unlike the opening theme song for this series), and I'll look forward to that. Oh, a good love song's going to win whatever the other band has on their sleeve, FOR SURE. This is how drama works, after all. *giggles* See you then.
P.S. "I was just fine to be by (Yori's) side." Oh Aki-chan, so you are a wimp too? *dabs* "...but for me, I guess (love) is about wanting to cook for them every day." Oh Ueshama you can cook for me for all eternity hehe ah hey
P.P.S. "If I ended up not finding the right kind of love, and if Yori-senpai did go out with Aki-senpai..." Wait wait hold on a minute. *laughs* (Yes I meant hypothetically and realistically too)
[And this is why I hate that I'm on this hype train in disappointment now not because of the genre, but how that the original album releasing in July will still feature SSGIRLS the band inside the Anime STILL sung by Sasakura Kana?? What, Seto Asami isn't suited to sing a song or two for the series? I don't get it dude.]

้Ÿณๆฅฝย This Week on Klassic Note
This week in songs are rather idol packed and that's fine, you do these kinds of things sometimes so you can enjoy mainstream better. *giggles* ClariS new single is alright I don't think the B-sides got me besides if I have a Japanese dad lmao, so I'll leave their retro pop styles at that, the title song for Anime is great though. SoundOrion's new single got me digging a lot into this voice actress group of girls I don't know besides the one even so I really don't know her, but I guess it's normal-sounding on their harmony so that's fine giving the title song I think this got me into the vibes as the week went on.ย 

ClariS new album trailer will prep us for the album coming out in 2 weeks but as mentioned in this week's single review I am not going to expect much unless they break the retro pop style, and I did hear some of these in the trailer so hopefully those. Chances for giving the Anime "KanoKano" ending theme song again? I highly doubt so. *giggles* SID vocalist Mao's new music video is on the title song of their album in a couple of weeks which I might take a listen, and if this isn't enough their new song preview will at least make you weep. *sob* sphere's new(?) music video for the week is an emotional song I can get behind especially it has been 13 years DAMN I'm old. *laughs* THE ORAL CIGARETTES' new live video is not something I liked but it's always great to promote their songs so you're welcome if you knew of this. Sangatsu no Phantasia's new music video is alright I think it's fine, it's not ground-breaking though so I don't think it will impress me when I have to come around to her new single in 2 weeks time. Anime songs cover YouTube series CrosSing new season revealed voice actress involved and yeah I see some familiar names including Numakura Manami and Waki Azumi who are inactive on their solo music careers already so let's see what they sing anyways, I don't care about cover songs I don't listen to anyways. Then again I did listen to songs for like 15 years and counting already so something's gotta hit. So far in this YouTube series? Cover songs I know appear in Anime I watch more often. *laughs* VELTPUNCH's vocalist and guitarist did a guitar cover of their most popular songs I assume still till date and yeah, it was cool, I just wanted to give it a mention. Sasakura Kana's new music video has so much controversy on my side I'm already pissed but essentially it's for Anime "SasaKoi" and I don't get why the voice actress don't get to sing for the fake band they are in but got an indie artist to do it? Why not just brand it as under her? Oh well, whatever, it's still a good song. And if you can't wait for the album then mol-74's new album song previews will keep you company. I will refrain from them just because and get my first impressions when I listen to the album, I already know they are good. *dabs* Or maybe just listen once and forget.ย 

So next week, we have the holy grail of music for the month (lol) that is Asakura Momo's new single which I haven't heard the B-side on, so if that gets on the shelf I'll be sure to announced it on social. *giggles* And if that fails maybe I'll take a listen to [Alexandros] new single (aptly named "single 1" lmao wtf is this, China?), or take a listen to some of the live archives I have on my hands.




Nah, I didn't have time to watch Koko-chan's event livestream from last week. Not interested in knowing what she is doing to my girlfriend anyways. *laughs* I just can't I'll get the jealousy even thought she should be the jealous one. *giggles* Alright, that's fictional me lore, can we not mix that with reality where I'm still single? *silence* We shall not talk about this haha we have another season of Fanfiction to do likely the last one for the year though, I want to be busy doing other stuff like hosting a lot of static sites for free. No seriously, Render is doing a great job hosting my blog and Klassic Note Web for me I can't even. Blah blah package is ruined because suddenly the MusicRay'n package I added recently finally responded so I didn't have to do the Suruga-ya run, so since I'm waiting for a Moeshi photobook by the end of the month and maybe we have a single review if Mocho doesn't disappoint (hehe), then next month's package will be quite stacked. Well, this month's just stacked with bromide photos haha we will talk about how this incoming one will cover like, 90% of photos for the year for me. *laughs* See you guys next time, and until then... take care of yourselves, dude. Physically, and mentally. I can hardly do both. *wink* Or see me rant about work on my Bluesky account I guess, the actual attempt of me using social media on a smaller audience, hopefully.

P.S. Speaking of social, I know something that made my day (and it wasn't until I was reminded again of it), Nagae Rika liked my reply on Twitter/X!! *applauds* Haha well context is she was asking for feedback on what to sing on her upcoming solo live event (yep), and I suggested a recent song she mentioned in her radio show. I've talked about it too, and it's miwa's new song, so yeah, I might just pay to watch her sing that if it happens. *giggles* I know right, this year is the year of paying for livestreams- I already broke that trend so *laughs* I'm starting to use social right I guess, actually replying to stuff. I will try my best. *smiles*
