Sunday, 26 May 2024
Weekends are short, aren't they?

Short enough for me to not be able to do more despite spending the past day and a half to do up my GitHub site, scan more of them photos of Kido Ibuki so I can *fap fap fap* haha that beige swimsuit is too much for my virgin heart, and take a break- I didn't do the last one though, there was no time for a nap. And that's the problem. *laughs* The DOAXVV half anniversary gacha rolls are making it up for it though haha Monica-chan~!!!! *giggles*

Oh well, we are not getting the breaks today also because it takes a lot of effort to do this and I don't know how to streamline this despite the anniversary of the blog coming soon and Blogger is breaking by the way it can't even do links properly now... So let's not think too much and talk more of Anime and music!!




ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย One Room, Hiatari Futsuu, Tenshi Tsuki.
"The ultimate being! The peak of all creation!" In Anime, that is always just an Anime girl LMAO
No, not angels. Angels are nothing compared to these guys. We call them cosplayers. *laughs*ย  In this new episode where the vampires are a thing apparently I'm not too sure either (#TenshiTsuki08), okay Tsumugi I think we are good we have fellow female humans on this planet, thank goodness. *laughs* So, maybe we gotta properly define right now what on Earth is Lilishka or Kagami-san as people call her at school. She's a vampire. *laughs* Well, she is still one and looks like Shintarou's trend of getting such beings to him is not fading away, but unlike what we initially thought about her identity being faked by colour contacts and an eyepatch, it's just very possible that she doesn't want to be the vampire she is. Yes, we call these chuunibyou, and if the subtitles didn't do the translation well, it's more like some kid who thinks the world is whatever fantasy they live in. Faking an injured eye is just one of those traits. *laughs* I mean, it's still a fantasy which way you think about it lol and I'm rather tired about that, so don't be too surprised if all I do is write vampire jokes from here on. *laughs* Still, from Lilishka's weird behaviour, she really feels as anti-social as Noel-chan in certain ways but I would argue this is inherently her own fault since it's a lot easier to conceal her vampire identity while still being social and not suck the blood of others as she has been doing so far. The licking of napes though... You don't want to know what happened to them with Towa-chan in the same room that night. *laughs* Yeah, no one questioned how the angel and the main guy are sleeping together in bliss in face of another unknown entity? If not for the evil mind of Tsumugi I wouldn't even think otherwise. *laughs* No like, really, does it even matter anymore? I wasn't even a bit surprised at.. well, everything this episode, but maybe we should've paid some attention to Shintarou being aloof to this vampire girl, that's for sure. Because I... I don't know how to describe this relationship. *laughs* You see, so far we have benefactor angel, classmate crush or whatever lol, friendly snow woman, then...? Yeah, you notice that? I mean, we were quite close to adding to the list as "vampire master" but uh... *laughs* Well thank goodness we didn't, but yeah, Lilishka isn't exactly offering up anything so that she can do... whatever she likes to Shintarou, if that doesn't sound wrong enough. *laughs* All in all... this is just another episode of Anime "Demi-chan", isn't it? *laughs* But this guy isn't even RIPPED!! *laughs* No no, you guys don't get it. Shintarou is just overall being HOT. *laughs* No think about it, attracting the opposite so snow woman, so hot he emits a smell hard to resist... it's all in his nature to be the main guy. *dabs* So yeah, weirder things can happen in this story, so I can't wait for our final character to appear soon, I legit thought we will see her this episode since we were at the club room as shown in the opening animation. Also, I wish all girls were vampires. *laughs* Well, I wish all girls were vampires who like my scent. *laughs* No, we can't do that? There isn't enough Takanashi Hikari to go around? Dammit. *laughs* Seeing from next episode's title though, I'm pretty sure this can get more awkward, so I can't wait for an orgy to happen at Shintarou's place- Not a porno, by the way. *laughs*
P.S. "A maid cafรฉ? Are high schoolers even allowed to enter?" I suppose so but YOU DID NOT EVEN GO IN THERE WTF (lol) "You've never even hugged me, your friend!" Wait, what? *laughs* I mean Noel-chan if you want to hug me we can do this anytime lmao WHERE MY FEMALE FRIENDS AT
P.P.S. "You're the first whose scent has bothered me so much." Must be talking about that foul smell of his d- Not a porno, by the way. *laughs* "Just the tip, just the tip will do..." Not a porno, by the way. *laughs*

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid
"We grow vegetables at the (magic) school and sell them" Yeah, are they all weed or...? *laughs*
I assume this is still the setup episode, but we are close to the confrontation. In this new episode where we pick up the pieces (#ShinigamiBocchan31), there isn't much left to pick up just more honest talk, so let's cover them all. For starters, the preparations for the confrontation of Sade. Zain has been in training, and interestingly he need not join the guys to go back to the past just in case Sade decides to make use of Zain to time travel that'll be a new level of yikes, but still, not like Zain has no reason to be there and we will need a lot of help if all goes down badly, so the more the better. I like how Cuff talks about Viola-chan though supposedly having nothing to show for fight, and Nico-sensei looks like he has a task for her specifically too, so that'll be interesting to see. Worst thing is probably we don't know how many of them will be back life, even if any. And I'm not going to talk about the time-space effect this will have on current time, so MOVING ON!! *laughs* There's the talk about love. Surprisingly, Viola-chan still doesn't know who Alice is in love with, even though they just spend all day playing with each other in a field of pillows. *giggles* I'm glad she took the time to tell Viola though much to her surprise too, but it's no wonder why Alice has never wanted to, if you would recall previous episode where the mother warns of Bocchan marrying someone of lower social status... Zain, can you just teleport us to the future instead afterwards so they can get married where social status doesn't matter in marriage? *laughs* I know right, might as well make full use of his powers, we won't be coming back though if that's the case. *giggles* Last but not least, we sort of know the general plan is so far. No bloodshed at first is the plan, but apart from what roles they will take and the idea of confronting Sade after knowing of her past with the grandfather... we don't know what is the plan of action. The actual action, I mean. Like, do we want to just tell Sade to undo their curses and we're done? CAN we just let her do that and we're done? I don't know if that's how it works, and even then Daleth still has incentive to side by her sister since she is still a liability till the end, so I really am not too sure what is the plan for the gang as they meet up a week later at Bocchan's place. All in all... damn, am I also worried of what will happen next. I know right, what is Inoue-sensei planning?? Now I'm also worried about the plot going forward. *laughs* They are also not doing any plot twist to end this episode, so I'm really wondering now. *laughs* Can I just watch the next episode tomorrow to find out? Haha I hate how I'm a week behind. Either way I'll stick to the schedule, I would say this is quite a peaceful episode once again. Not that it's a bad thing, but there is still much to deliberate, so I won't blame of them to convey that as much as possible. It's all out from here on, so let's see if talking to Sade will work first, I guess. I highly doubt so, but considering the circumstances that we technically can't kill Sade again? It might just work. See you then.
P.S. "H! Next up is H!" HELL YEAH haha Cuff is just doing alphabets don't worry about it dude
P.P.S. "Hey, who do you think it is what Alice likes?" I like Keto and Teto's reactions haha it's like Viola-chan doesn't know "If I had a family, and children... Would it be like this?" I don't know Rob, you tell me- Oh, that doesn't work. *sob*
[If you guys don't mind I would like to do another Viola-chan compilation hehe this is likely the final season I gotta simp while I can *dabs*]

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Bartender: Kami no Glass
"I don't think it's my place to comment on who you hire at your hotel" Yeah Sasakura isn't even hired at your hotel! *laughs*
Remember guys, it's cheaper to outsource than to openly hire. *taps brain* Haha in this new episode where Sasakura almost changed career paths to work in HR lol (#Bartender08), yeah, just observe the cocktail awards event like you are one hotel CEO and tell the hotel CEO who is interesting, that's all. *silence* Is that how it works? Boy, being a bartender is ROUGH. *laughs* Well, let's talk about it, the cocktail awards. I feel like everyone inside the competition has something to talk about in their story, so let's talk about them. Firstly, Chen is in this. WHAT?? *laughs* I mean, it shouldn't be a surprise so far, we did see what decision he has made after what was with his dad and them giving him the middle finger to go back to take over the family business, so Chen is still trying to impress his dad differently. Not that it works on his end, I mean, he did screw up on the finals as we have seen him be the most confident among the others, but at least he still gets to be a bartender for now? I mean, if you work at your dad's hotel I'm pretty sure that's called an internship, just ask all the other Asian dramas. *laughs* Well, all's as well as it can be for Chen then, so let's move on to the winner, shall we? Haha spoiler alert but not surprisingly, only Yuri-san here is the only Okinawan but also the only one deserving of the win, old man Tanaka has taught her well, because not only did she show composure at her display of skills in front of the judges I would argue among them Kuzuhara was the only one who thought she sucked lmao gottem, she also made a refreshing drink to impress. Well, not that I know if it tastes great I haven't drank cocktail in my life lol, but hey, her bar's business is improving so I would hope that it has been well received so far. Last but not least, and that's why Sasakura made the decision to not let the Chairman decide on the other two mentioned above, we have Kawakami. Don't worry, her anxieties still ring well within me, and boy did I ever want to skip the finals with her on it so bad but I refrains to not much avail I did eventually hit it a couple of times anyways lmao I'm such a loser, she still did better than me anyways, knowing that her sensei Minami-san is behind her even if she isn't her best discipline. I mean, a dad is a dad, right, no matter how far you go? *giggles* And yes, I think the latter's origin story was the one which touched me the most. To be recognized, people, is such a hard thing, you ask Chen how far he has done just to do what he likes. *giggles* All in all, it's quite a drag to just show off a cocktail award ceremony lmao, but hey, I know what I'm in for, and so far their stories have developed smoothly, so look who's left to be needed of convincing to move on from their bar and work for the Chairman's hotel MUAHAHAHA not yet apparently says the Chairman, because somehow, just somehow hinting us for weeks already since Episode 1, Sasakura here has some things left unattended. Maybe we will find out about that soon enough.
P.S. "I've been shaking on that big shaker so much I built some muscle!" Not a porno, by the way- Alright dude haha
P.P.S. "Well, (Chen) was unfriendly as usual, but what frustrated me was... he was still so hot." WHAT haha hey Kawakami we don't judge

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Kuroshitsuji -Kishuku Gakkou Hen-
"The band stopped. Where is Michaelis-sensei?" Oh something came up haha Ciel I know right
Oh yeah, we were cheating in a cricket tournament. *laughs* In this new episode where the headmaster of Weston College finally showed his damn face (#KuroshitsujiSchool07), we still got a final match of cricket to deal with though sadly without the music which is kinda sad in my opinion lol it was great lmao, but yeah, let's see what else is up the sleeves of Blue House. I'm pretty sure they can't be cheating all the time even though they technically are, so let's get those off the list first. *giggles* I mean, bringing Lau and just female legs into battle is rather dirty, but I mean we are at a college where we are surrounded by the finest gentlemen, so SURELY just showing the bare legs won't get them high- Greenhill where are you hitting the ball, dude? *laughs* Also Maurice Cole you sh*tting-ass man-girl why are you even here and why haven't we expelled you yet? *laughs* So welp fun's over, but we got more. But as you can see the match progress to nearly a tie, the Blueys (lmao) did try different tactics as much as their IQ can take them, from playing defence to playing strategically at every time they can throw at the brainless (oops) Green House, it worked to some extent or else all of this would be over by now. Okay, ignore where Ciel failed to throw the ball twice in a row, that one was cheating. *laughs* Shout out to Greenhill defending the opponent all the way while also relentlessly playing their game though, this guy is the only chad around here so screw you Edward. *laughs* In Blue House's defence and also Greenhill's, they are still trying their best despite losing odds, and isn't that what sportsmanship is about? I mean, look at Violet. *laughs* Well, not that there isn't unfair play in action, as we have seen time and again where surprises drop by from time to time, with weird shots and 200 IQ plays, it's always a surprise at every turn, which is what I think Green House isn't ready for to take on, thinking that they are done with their plans. Contingency planning, dude. Surely Bluewer knew of that having this many sisters- ANYWAYS haha where the f**k is the headmaster though? Haha I think apart from how the match played out, it's also still SO BIZARRE that despite Sebastian just chasing the presence of the headmaster around on the field, well not with his demon powers of course, still could not catch up with the dude, and even when he cheats (lol ah hey) all Sebastian caught was a decoy? Hmm... I don't remember what was the conclusion here but if you know of the series so far, this can *only* be the doings of the shinigami, if I were to guess. *sshh*ย All in all though ignoring the phantom chase of a headmaster haha, what a great conclusion to the cricket tournament! I definitely did not recall this being so good as I read the source material so many years ago, but damn, I'm so glad they made it good. That's all it matters. I need more confidence that the adaptation of the series will go on, and I think this worked better than the follow-up vaccine I took a couple of days ago. *wink* Seriously though haha, we know Ciel is faking everything just like how the headmaster is lmao got two of them with one ball by the way, but hey Blue House won spoiler alert if you read this far haha, the headmaster can't avoid us now, so let's see what he has to say about his phantom Schrรถdinger-like existence at the cricket match. Love the epic piano opening theme song during the match though, that is like, making me to hyped for the single release next week, I tell ya.
P.S. "Perhaps (Ciel) you are too young to understand" Understand what? Haha yeah Lau strikes again fellas keep your dongs away, zip them tight. *laughs* "It's having a huge impact!" On what? *laughs*
P.P.S. I gotta say though, that I'm pretty sure some of these bizarre techniques they did in the cricket match was just like, 2 pages of the comic and even though Yana-sensei is as detailed as they have been in writing such stories, it's still amazing to see it adapted by the Anime production who took it very seriously and make this series worth watching. Like, I wouldn't watch another cricket match over this. *thumbs up*
[Since the cricket poses were so well drawn I'll showcase some of them here hehe you're welcome animation team I knew these will be good I just didn't know how good they will be]

ใ‚ขใƒ‹ใƒกย Sasayaku You ni Koi wo Utau
"Shiho... I don't get her, I don't get her at all." SAME
No I don't want Mikakoshi to be my best friend only, it's too much sadness to bear. *laughs* Or is it better if I said Aki-chan instead? Haha ah hey if this new episode wont' get us into a corner (#SasaKoi07), I'm pretty sure Shiho of the rival band also going for the auditions to sing at the school festival is. What a f**king b*tch. *laughs* Also trust me, I had to take tranquilizers before I watch this Anime ever since the confession went through. Still a heterosexual male, I tell ya. *laughs* But hey, what is not to like? Yori-senpai with the shame or Himari-chan with the cuteness? Yes. *laughs* But seriously though, I don't think this will change much at this point as you can see it has become passing comments for everyone in the show from the SSGIRLS to Himari's bestie Miki-chan to even the girls in the Cooking Club (Wait, so Anzai Chika is flirting with Ueda Reina?? I'm taking notes. *laughs* Man, this is so much of a joke of a lore for their voice behinds I can't even), they are just envious of the couple that has gone through so much just so we can ruin it down the road. *laughs* How so though? I suppose that's what this episode is going to lead to us. But first, maybe some flashback with Aki-chan. As mentioned by her, Shiho wasn't a great band member to work with because for starters, she takes this band thing very seriously. Like, if I dunk on her she will kill me in the back alley seriously. *yikes* Haha but what seems like harmless insults even when Shiho joined SSGIRLS back then turned out to be the first b*tch slap we have seen so far in the series let's go Mizuguchi Aki thanks for setting the record lol, and I would argue it's not much justified as everyone in the band has their flaws, but hey, they had to make up for the lovey-dovey drama here so someone had to be the bad girl. Turns out, the problem is always with Shiho. Yori is right; If it's Shiho's problem she left the band, that's her problem. Not like she had a good reputation of being in a band anyways HAHA GOTTEM AGAIN. I mean, proving the point again was unnecessary, but I'm sure the consensus here is that SSGIRLS was okay, and the rival band Lo-Lorelei (yeah I had to check the name) was basically metal band DEATH DEVIL from the Anime "K-ON!" series which was lead by the club advisor to that Light Music Club. *laughs* Alright references over, but that just means it's cool. It's no love at first sight thing Himari won't suddenly fall in love with Shiho here. *laughs* All in all... ask me about my gender preferences by the end of the season. *laughs* I don't think it will change, but between all the dating and rivalry, I'm very sure at the least, that the latter will be enough to offset what this genre of Anime was supposed to be. *laughs* I mean, look at that b*tch Shiho. *laughs* It's like she wants satisfaction for revenge or whatever. Which is why I'll look forward to the drama moving forward, as Iย kind of want to see Shiho be told that trying hard is her pitfall at some point, I really do. *giggles* I know, I'm also evil, but you know, it is growing times and they are still in high school, so maybe lessons need to be learnt. I'm pretty sure also the band she is in now the members are also barely trying to get her personality and all. Like, even we have reached that stage where Aki-chan might just fall because what, Shiho knows to pick a stone between her and Yori's relationship so far... I'm pretty sure Shiho has some screw loose, no offense. *laughs* Like, right? I mean, we have dealt with evil roles here and there though I have been enjoying on the soft side of drama, but heck, I know what I'm in for, and maybe just like Shiho, I might start to bail once I realize what I might be in for. Jokes on me though, for this is already too late to do so, huh. So let me THROW away all the music references (haha I mean it though because only melodies hit me and these are *pukes*) because singing is not a thing for the voice actress here the one song from the rival band in the episode was also sung by an actual singer, and maybe we talk more about this drama and expression exacerbated by its music style differences next time.
P.S. "You are so dense, Yori-senpai" Yeah haha so is the animations on that walk home did you see how they drew the body angles? And I don't mean hourglass I meant like totally wrong angle my eyes hurt lol
P.P.S. "It's so nice, getting to be with someone I love." Wow Himari-chan explain to me what that feels like, will ya? *sob* "What about me?" Koga Aoi I will love you till the day I die haha ah hey
[Okay I tried the "Less-AR" thing on my phone and I have NO F**KING IDEA who thought this was a great idea just like the animation in this series lol, but heck, this might be the only way you can listen to the newest tunes from the show until the music albums (yes, plural, for each band) appears in July. Damn, why is this Anime just making me b*tch like I'm Shiho haha *ugh*]

้Ÿณๆฅฝย This Week on Klassic Note
Oh yeah, let's talk about the music releases out this week. *sigh* Of course I know ClariS new album will be pop heavy and present itself the best way possible so it's unlike their single B-sides, and indeed their (supposed)ย title song is the best in the new songs so far, but that also means comfort songs are present too which made it rather easy to give even though it's just a couple (ah hey) of songs from the list. Of course I know mol-74's new album is harder to give given their niche pop style which can sound smooth or nonchalant if you listen it through and that's fine in my opinion... until I have to give them songs. *laughs* But my problem isn't with any of them because have you heard of Homecomings' new song released on Friday?? That was great though!! *giggles* But yeah, even then I have my reasons for holding back, but yeah, I think I am still stuck in the emo phase just like a year ago when I was giving Homecomings songs despite all the new songs this week. *silence* I need to find more Homecomings releases I haven't listened to yet haha gg my music tastes

I know we don't like to talk about music news because you rather just scroll through your YouTube feed to see if the most popular song will hit you, but hear me out. *laughs* If you have not hard of Ikimonogakari's tribute album then maybe Kamishiraishi Mone's cover of Ikimonogakari's 2008 classicย should give you an idea for who she is if you have not heard of her in Anime yet. *wink* (Yes, she sang for Anime "Bartender" ending theme song this season FYI) LUCK LIFE's new song will release next week and you can listen to the preview a bit for the chorus and it isn't bad but that doesn't say much about their songs so I will listen to them in full when it's out. Chilli Beans live digest from their Budokan performance last year is such feels I feel like I should go listen to more of their songs even though I cleared their 1st album early this year. RYTHEM's new live video is a classic that will get you more than me sadly to say, SPECIAL OTHERS ACOUTSIC's new monthly tune is alright but as I said this weakens the overall theme of the album without just a handful of title song since they are making every song a title song now, Ishihara Kaori's new music video just released and it's for an Anime theme song out last season lol why so late they could've done this 4 months ago to impress, and SCANAL's new live video is still their best song for the album earlier this year. Aimer's new music video is a song we know of so yes this is just a self cover, so don't ask me if I will care about her new EP releasing next month. *laughs* Jokes aside, I appreciate the amount of content online these days, so I will not complain on their activities this is still way more than... whoever artist I forgot and is not releasing songs for years already lol AND I AM STILL FOLLOWING THEM?? BRUH. *laughs*

Okay so next week's plan and damn I wish this was also a public holiday like last week lmao, but never mind that, we have some priorities to go through. As such, after I clear the Anime "Kuroshitsuji" singles which are Otoha's new single and SID's new single respectively (yes blame me, I wanted to review on physical release date) I will move on to miwa's new album first because Sangatsu no Phantasia's new single(?) is so confusing right now it might not even be a single I still don't know how scarce is that data online that this isn't even an EP I have no idea. If I can't get that by then, I will then tune into SID vocalist Mao's new album because why not, I can like more of SID-like songs. That retro feels dude, I know I have to more on in 2024 but it's hard when you have like, 17 years worth of Japanese songs in your brain.




Oh yeah, sorry for b*tching about my sad life on the intro and I TOTALLY FORGOT to wish Isobe Karin a very happy birthday today!! Haha don't worry, I replied to the birthday post she made this morning. Honestly, my first for anyone ever. *giggles* Also in firsts is my subscription to her niconico channel she has been doing for years, as since years of having guests as the theme on this monthly livestream isn't working well for me, she now does it alone and make us viewers the guests which I'm more delighted to oblige *giggles*, and she did bring us back to the Showa Era (and sung a song for the non-paying plebs) so yeah, it was a good time to accept the offer. To save her, that's the title of the channel anyways. *wink* See you guys next time then where we celebrate Lynn-san's birthday I guess it's on a Saturday though, and hopefully I will have time to finish processing Ibuki-chan's stack of bromide photos as I scanned them to the PC yesterday. Haha buying those were a mistake buying stuff WAS a mistake lol see you next week again if you like whatever this blog is haha tbh it has become hard to rebrand this rojak I just realized *sob*

P.S. I need to design an app where I can manage my subscriptions. Trust me, those paid ones can't track niconico channel subscriptions- PayPal can do that better lmao

P.P.S. Not that I've received a confirmation email yet so I want to startle no one but my bro *dabs*, but I think I got the signed Moeshi photobook from the online signing event on Friday! *sshh* Not going to reference the stream on YouTube since it'll be taken down in a week, but unless that signed book for "Shouhei" was for not me, I think it was worth it to fiendishly plan a company vaccine follow-up shot on a Friday afternoon to watch this on 5pm. *wink*
