Man, here's hoping this PC doesn't power cut when I'm watching all of these, fingers crossed.

Otherwise, you would be glad that this is still up and ongoing for as long as I hope for but damn I may have to change out or at least get this thing diagnosed at some point hopefully on a Monday so I don't have to do this on my Surface Pro but maybe I should try to do that tbh, because I did do that when it blanked out on me when I was doing the fanfic yesterday! *ugh* Oh well, the new package is coming in so maybe after next week hehe but meanwhile, let's get to Anime and music! Oh boy did I miss a lot on the music part this week haha I just am too lazy to record them down every week even though I talk about them here. *giggles*

I have to agree though Taiki, having a crush on someone is indeed great. Lived that life at 13 and it was *chef's kiss* haha until she didn't care so *shrugs* haha let's not talk about my childhood but talk about others since in this new episode (#AoNoHako04), seriously thought did you not see the jersey taken by mistake thing coming? Like, really? Which idiot won't read the name RIGHT on the damn shirt- Yeah. *laughs* In more things about them living under the same roof lol yeah I meant Taiki and his mother LMAO they are both one of the same thing, we- Yeah I meant those two adolescents, thanks. *laughs* They are both one of the same thing, which makes mistakes like this happen rather often considering Taiki doesn't even dare to stare at his crush a second later unless she is talking to him directly. Same. *giggles* But yeah, this is not much of an issue if they don't get found out and they can exchange the shirts in school and Taiki can just watch her change on the roof- Wait, what? *laughs* Okay Chinatsu, maybe indoors behind the rooftops who knows if someone is spying on you across the other buildings. *silence* Haha shout out to "Under Ninja" I will not recommend that show though no one has a crush on anything other than obliterating each other with a satellite laser lol coming back, but yeah, these kinds of stuff that make Taiki's everyday special, I think we covered that enough already. Though Taiki's intentions are unclear to everyone else besides his friend and we will talk about him later THEY DON'T KNOW haha somehow Taiki isn't the mom's boy so he didn't tell her about his crush I guess, it's always a joy to see behind the scenes of course with Taiki aware of all this, that Chinatsu is also kind of reflecting on everything she says to people. Just like the mom said, very nice and pure. "Too pure pure girl", I would argue. *wink* But of course we can't talk about them without the nationals, so it's good to see Taiki making progress ironically with Haryu-senpai and moving up the ranks in the tournament, but more importantly, Taiki having to deal with a singles match himself. Oh boy, may I talk about my first ever sports match when I was a young lad of 11. *giggles* Alright long story short my techniques are solid if you know of table tennis we can curveball anything unless you smack like a lightning strike lol, but yeah, I was at Taiki's level before he got Chinatsu's support so I didn't win but it was good experience. Taiki here though, he can't afford to lose. Apart from the stuff we had to get the friend to tell Chinatsu lmao I like how the friend is literally telling the crush what to do. What a bro. My bro isn't even such a bro and don't even mention me. *laughs* Apart from that, Haryu-senpai also just put him in a position to have to win, after having to deal with his ex-partner (lmao, as in badminton) Kishi with the dab of hair I won't envy of anyways (lol), he also has fallen in love with Chinatsu and don't ask me how this just became a badminton match about defending Taiki's love from external threats. *giggles* Oh this poor dude Kishi, we are going to grill you alive you don't even know. *laughs* I mean, just look at Taiki's life right now. *dabs* I don't think Taiki is going to lose anyways Kishi looks like someone with a lot of confidence and a lot of flaws anyways lol I promise you the script can back me up even if I didn't read it, and just halfway through we are already seeing things change. All in all... I'll give you one guess where next episode is taking place. *giggles* And that's what I think is good about this series. They play sports, they talk sports, but it's a lot of relationships and love going on. It's not those sports series where it's just a bunch of guys swimming (lol how did I remember that) and we have to rely on muscles to stay sane or gay whichever is your preference lmao, and that is what carries this series, and I like that. It's straight to the point even though still taking longer paths because I'm sure you have watched those who only tells Chinatsu about Taiki's motivation like half a season later lol and this is not, and that's what I think will make it work. Just like how these guys are geared to succeed, this series will too with the right storytelling in place. And I'll look forward to more. AQUARIUM TRIP LET'S GO hehe

P.S. "You know, a boy and girl living under the same roof, I'm surprised nothing has happened yet." GOTTEM haha that's what friends are for

P.P.S. "Getting changed in front of me... That must mean (Chinatsu) doesn't view me as a guy." I mean, not really Taiki, I think she trusts you in order to do this too. *giggles* Come on, we have to give him some confidence lol

[No, no Chinatsu compilation I did not take enough I am Taiki right now and I do not want to share them with you *laughs*]

Yeah all according to keikaku the sister must be overjoyed right now. *look at intro* See? *laughs* In this new episode where this has finally become the slice-of-life Anime of the season lol (#MeidoSama04) and we don't have to worry about- Where's the bad guy now? *giggles* Yuki-san? You can't just pull strings and be in this school and NOT have to worry about its repercussions right? *silence* Let's not say too soon. *giggles* But what is too soon though is, and thank goodness I anticipated that in order to give this the thumbs up, is we have rivalry now. *laughs* I know right, we haven't even finished talking about Riko-chan yet. *giggles* Yeah sure we will talk more about her, about how much she is a girl through and through and how Yokoya (maybe I should call him Hitoyoshi now) knows all about his dear imouto to relate to most of the stuff Yuki-san will do on impulse even thought she isn't really aware that she is literally dragged on a carrot on a stick when it comes to anything dribbled in that Katsuda Sauce now I can't even. *laughs* Yeah, I know, a lot of build-up just for this one joke, and damn is Yuki-san fast enough to not even let whatever that gang in school know that she took one off the store's table before anyone of them could even come close to it. Oh, and don't bother buying one for your "master" too, it's one per customer only. Maybe next time drag him along too to let him feel the air, yes? *giggles* I'm not going to talk too much about the weekends spent with the imouto because I'm pretty sure I would want my fictional imouto to spend the weekend with me I don't even want to sleep but only with her *dabs* haha alright me with her digital photobook earlier this week already, we are introduced to a new character in school! Oh, not the transfer student Yokoya Yuki, you should've known she is all planned by Riko-chan already. *laughs* But yeah, pulling them strings may have gotten her unnecessary attention even for the underworld, so cue the new(?) (we have no way to verify that we haven't even seen the previous one) infirmary teacher-in-charge Lynn-san I mean, uh, Niita-san. *giggles* If your first impression of her after she locked the door and afterwards wanting to give the pure pure boy Hitoyoshi some eye drops (lmao) more of a succubus you won't be alone because SAME DUDE haha, but if it's not obvious enough for you, you really need to get your eyes checked. *giggles* Not by her though, I don't want Hitoyoshi to lose his virginity this quick. *laughs* So yeah, I expect next week onwards to be chaos as Niita-san here is determined to spy on and potentially ruin the family slice-of-life series we have built here oh no what are we to do, and if I would like to think of her combat specs compared to Yuki-san... I would think that her specialty isn't melee, but more of seduction. Yeah, something Yuki-san won't get if all she has is basic foundation on her face. *wink* Anyways, I'll look forward to that then sadly this can't be just a flashback series no more this isn't even that yellow octopus from "Assassination Classroom" but still, I expect this to be more wacky and... more tame, in terms of its resolutions. We shall see, prove me right though Anime, I really don't want to see their house burnt down. *cringe*

P.S. "If it's her desire and willpower to taste Katsuda's Sauce that's driving her right now, she cannot be stopped." Yeah haha this Anime dude with the sauce "Come to think of it, ever since I discovered the tonkatsu sauce, I feel like my skin has become smoother" LOL FAKE AD haha

P.P.S. "I know Yuki-san can do it with you any night she wants, but..." WOAH WOAH RIKO WATCH YOUR DAMN MOUTH haha "Where did all this come from? Even erotic manga has more emotional buildup than this!" LOL I see Yokoya here reads his ecchi content on the regular

I mean, to be fair to the Soul King's right arm, I would convert if I was a demigod and blessed by people I have never seen before. Yeah, VTubers be like this too. *giggles* In this new episode where the betrayal is real we got the dad on the shinigami side already (#BLEACHTYBW30), but the reality is that Ishida is on the Quincy side. Well, almost. *giggles* Can we not? *laughs* But yeah, as the proceedings so far apart from Yhwach confused how his dad's right arm is fighting him with Ukitake as its backing, and Ganju and the others aren't dead at least twice yet (lmao so weak), we are focusing on the one who betrayed us and us being Ichigo's group: Ishida Uryu. This little boy. *laughs* So for starters, it is important for us to be brainwashed of the fact that, well, as of now *wink* Ishida is on the Quincy side. This I think the Anime did well to ensure you guys get the point, as much as it's also hard to believe considering how much we know of this little boy, but we have to prove his point or else no one will even trust him around here, so eventually this will lead to his victory for now, which will indeed help in his reputation among the Sternritters, I will give you that. The fight though... Honestly saying? This looks like fighting Byakuya again but better? *laughs* I do not recall seeing Ishida's Volla- V-power haha I almost forgot I gave that a nickname, so yeah and it doesn't even have a name by the way hehe that's how you know, and its essentially still what Ishida has been doing to his long term rival-friend over here: Just shooting him and hope that he will deflect all of them. Well, most of them, he still did get some Yhwach power so he's at least till the point that we have to spend more time dealing with his attacks now. *giggles* (Goddamn and still Ishida is weak af haha why are we even doing this) Oh yeah, and Ishida surprised at Ichigo being his blood friend (get it, because blut-) is funny, very funny even. *laughs* And in case you did not notice the epilogue here... yeah, the Soul King dad is done for. We all knew it was inevitable. I don't really want to tell you guys how much Ishida also knew of this, but hey Ichigo doesn't know about that he just found out he might be part Quincy too so *shrugs* I guess we will start from square one again, just this time around, the square is surrounding our new Soul King Yhwach. All hail our new overlord and lynchpin who should be encased and put in its place. *giggles* All in all... I mean, Hashwalth Haschwalth saw through Ishida already, we knew. *giggles* Like, just enough to stop Ichigo? BRUH. *laughs* But in Ishida's defence, he is not going to win, so maybe stopping him is a good idea after all, it'll take him some time to recover. Meanwhile, next episode will be the time where (spoiler alert) Yhwach will take down the Soul King, and a new era of fights will bloom. Hopefully. *giggles * I had to look back on the source material to recall any of this tbh lol

P.S. "Your inability to use the word kill against the man who killed your mother is why you are weak, Ichigo." Ooooh GOTTEM haha you are not wrong dad but he is the main character so *shrugs* haha

[SOURCE MATERIAL ANALYSIS TIME!! Haha that's why I ended my review early it was short because I wanted to see if we have followed the script so far lol, so IN CASE YOU WONDER IF I JOKED ABOUT ISHIDA FIGHTING AGAINST ICHIGO, let's just say the sniper Sternritter intervened to shoot him instead of Ishida that pussy, Ganju didn't get to show his not new powers, Ishida just made up his V-power on the spot right here and there, and the rest happened in one chapter. *laughs* But yeah, it's more action-packed and intense, don't you think? *shakes head* F**king what this is, for kids? Haha oh well we should make this more exciting but damn if this is going to downplay all the other fights moving on I will personally shoot a Quincy arrow through Anime supervisor Kubo-sensei's head. *laughs* Also, we missed the most important part of the above making more sense: It's easier making Ichigo fall and take a lot of time to come back up to fight them then just kill him which of course the latter is impossible according to Anime logic. *giggles* So yeah, whatever dude, it's an adaptation anyways lol *sigh*]

"The reason that her thought process has gone haywire is because her current drive is alcohol." I see, thanks narrator I would not have noticed that. *laughs* Because in this new episode where they ran like the wind and some kid just told me an Anime reference I didn't expect from this new episode lmao hey Pretty Cure how do you do (#MuraiNoKoi03), boy oh boy what happened in this I don't even remember it's all a flash to me now. *giggles* Let's go over the details without cracking any jokes, shall we? *laughs* For starters, a little recap, Tetsuko walked out a different person from the doujin event because in an evil joke from God or that master who kept trying to cut her nerves lmao RIP by the way, made her favourite character appear in real life which is basically someone she knew, so yeah, lots of confused emotions as she continues to down on her beer lmao. Murai's friends found her alone on the street though and I like how they made sure Hirai the pervert and us (lol) think that Kiriyama hasn't figured out who she is yet, ended up being able to convince her that it's not her fault, and at the very least give Murai some attention as himself instead of thinking he's some fictional character out of your damn otome video game. *giggles* Murai's side also got some love, from the fanclub members who went from "oops shouldn't have done that" to well, they just helped him regain the confidence he needs to confront the sensei because if there's only one thing in life I could teach you, is that- I forgot. *laughs* What was that quote I heard of in a Sambomaster song? "Pray hard enough and you will change the future?" Well this isn't it. *laughs* But I just thought of that and I am sorry. *laughs* Because what happened afterwards is more of a joke than a resolve, as they two... try to find each other on the streets while I don't know, doing good things? Haha if you haven't watched enough of this trash might I recommend you "Chio-chan" that one was also a kind-hearted mess. *giggles* But yes, this fateful encounter. Let's just assume they found each other through summoning the Dragonballs, whatever, the Anime isn't even trying but I'm entertained so I'll take it. *laughs* Anyways, the couple (hehe) apologized to each other, Murai was smartly enough to come forth with his feelings for the sensei but yeah Hitotose because it is to catch her attention which he definitely did, didn't have to go so far to prove it and the Com*ket encounter was purely a coincidence... and I like how Tetsuko responded appropriately by shaking his hand like a fan at the event- Man, what is this relationship even I am more pleased than Murai's friends who just are the MVP this episode and may have just saved this series from eternal collapse. *laughs* All in all... I have to be honest with you guys. I should not beat about the bush, it has been 3 episodes already. The definitive decision is supposed to happen, on whether I will accept the rest of what this Anime adaptation has to offer. And I'm pleased to announced that from here forth I will start following their Twitter/X account (sorry I'm old I will never forgive Elon for renaming it lol) and yeah, maybe enjoy their short clips of the scenes we can always just laugh to regardless of how well you know this hilarious romance. Just uh, those clips don't have subtitles and I can't change that so welp. *laughs* Non joke answer though haha I'm in for this lol we are almost on weekly quota but this is definitely making me laugh more than "Amagami-san" lol GOTTEM haha Hirai will be pleased at my choices (or not) and yeah we shall see who the new girl is to be involved in Murai's life- IS THAT MAIMAI WHO VOICED THE LITTLE GIRL EARLIER?? *mind blown* Haha this episode is 10/10 no further comment hehe I just stopped noting on quotes just because

[TL:DR; "The Murai route is 5000 times better than (Hitotose)! We'll prove it to her!" Wow these sisters might be right ngl now that I think about it]

P.S. "When I come back to my senses, I will die!" Yeah when that butcher in her head starts appearing lol that's me with coffee btw "What has become of my town?" LMAO old geezer please don't join in

P.P.S. "I'm not bad at skateboarding, skateboarding is just bad at me." Wow my mind has just been blown it's not because I'm bad at picking chicks it's because chicks are bad at being picked up by me *dabs*

(*Links to Apple Music Japan, in English where applicable)

Yeah, I decided to give idolism a listen this week. *pukes* Haha alright me let's move on not like I'm giving new songs for ClariS anyways I will try to give Naobou another chance next week. For the others though, thank goodness mainstream is the winner specifically w.o.d. no surprises there, but ironically even with SPECIAL OTHERS I did not give the less popular songs on the list which also meant I could've just given the songs and not need to be accustomed to them for a few more times in order to give them the get-go. *silence* Oh well, it's October already I'm not going to be surprised at new songs I'm burning out already at this point.

(*From Twitter/X; Information accurate as of writing)

Well, see you guys next week. *laughs*

Because even I do not want to talk about Ikimonogakari's rehearsal tracklist premiere on YouTube because if it's not an actual live then I don't think I want to spend time on it because look, I got so many artists to listen to now there is hardly any need to stick to the past. *wink* Haha alright someday we have to do the compilations again and I will have to remember them but hey at least we can look at how cute Clara-san is and not be reminded on how she broke her ankle while rehearsing for their live this weekend. *silence* She is such a chad(?) for going through it though, so we decided to give now married Karen-san a proper send-off. *dabs*

Edit: Oh, and to give some context, Rinu is part of a VTuber voice actors group Sutabori, and that's why I wrote as the latter since I have no idea things can get this complicated now lol

Well, it is Halloween and imouto is not giving her onii-chan a "treat" of new songs so I guess I'll "trick" myself into thinking how who to give the Top 20. Not her. *laughs* Maybe Ikimono, they are easier. *giggles*

Oh damn, is Natsukawa Shiina just the cutest thing I know. *laughs*

Yes, I am indeed referring to her newest photobook releasing on digital (which has already been out for 2 weeks already by the way) (I am not true fan onii-chan haha) and I gotta tell you... I am having the same feels I had when I bought (and reviewed) her very first photobook 5 years ago, with images to please and- I gotta say though, her cuteness is rubbing off on me, but not as much as MaiMai who I guess - I don't know if this is a cruel joke from God or just Anime production only knowing from her radio show - is just appearing in Anime I watch from time to time just exclusively voicing little girls. *laughs* We are not getting the RumiRumi as Sharon in "Engage Kiss" scenario where I can get a boner from her voicing (lol), but hey, we can but hope. *giggles* See you guys next time then, next week will be a short one someone placed a public holiday in there, the upcoming package is now incoming hehe, and I pray that I don't have to do more overtime. *prays*
