Oh, what a week contemplating whether do I need to see the doctor! *laughs*

But yeah looks like I didn't and I'm still enjoying some salted fried chicken for lunch *dabs* haha and also salivate on Yui-chan's photobook from last year which is on a sale so I can get the book AND watch the making video for the price of the book itself so thanks Kindle, and uh, I bought another calendar for the year. *laughs* Excuse me, NEXT year, in school calendars this is for until next April. *giggles*

Anyways haha welcome back, I am enjoying watching someone else play the new Resident Evil game so I want to catch up on that, but I will deal with the weekly grind that is Anime and music- You think I can just skip not watching "Prism Rondo" just to watch it on another week? *giggles*

Nah, no skips, not even for fanfics too which I already did yesterday last month. Let's!

Please, Lili isn't a *echoes* samurai or *echoes* geisha, she's cuter than that. She's a nihonjin- *laughs* I'm not going to make more of these jokes since Dorothy's influence on the family is already a sin she needs to atone in the future lol, but in the new episode (#PrismRondo13) we are met with reminiscence of an end and its hope. For starters, just like Dorothy, Lili wants to enjoy the last of what they were doing towards the end of her six-month stay in England: Failing to submit an artwork that takes 1st place. *laughs* Well, Dorothy doesn't intend to do any of that anyways and it's not because of Kit she just likes Joffrey and wants the peasant life surrounded by kids just like her mom does and I'm jealous LMAO, and Lili here... She missed her final opportunity to draw a painting without Kit's participation so she can brag about it and extend her stay so this won't just end. Which was also why I guess Kit found out the next day about the theme and seeing Lili's sketchbook at his place, where he realized he can change this up for the contest, and he sure did. Flip books aren't rare in this time and day in fact it might be outdated *laughs* but yeah, in a century ago? That was a masterpiece, alright. Done in half a day too, splendid even though it's about Kit and this was as he was sleeping. *giggles* We won't vouch for that, but even Professor Brant was pleased, so I think that's fine, Lili can stay... hopefully. *cringe* Please, I'm still waiting for the reply letter where the mom tells her to come home to Japan because she can't find a successor or something. *laughs* Which brings us to the next episode (#PrismRondo14) and uh, where Henry Church DID find a successor to his role as diplomat. Oh, don't ask me why, don't ask- RIP Henry Church. *salutes* Yeah it's sad, and this did take a toll on his kids. Richard doesn't know what to do with the world situation right about now finding out that England may be at the brink of war with the rest of Europe, and Kit... he might have set things right for himself, thinking back on the days of what his parents taught of him as life of an aristocrat. Even the dad too, he was smart about all of this thinking of his life. Like, isn't that the whole point? Henry let Kit do whatever he likes, achieve whatever he can, so that one day, just like him, he can come back and fulfil his duties as an aristocrat? *sob* Damn, I didn't expect this to get real serious, or that they will go into this deep compared to writing like, dark stories of the nobles, so this is real cool. And real, as in reality check for Kit specifically. And that's probably what triggered Kit to do one last artwork (not gonna say that it'll stun the art world but) which I can only imagine is very likely of a certain woman *giggles* or at least his memories of her and no she is not dead yet *wink* but yeah, he's not telling to Lili, for sure. Not even a confession, or that vice versa. Either the romance is super dead, or not I'm waiting. *giggles* All in all... *sob* Oh damn. *giggles* Yeah, I was expecting something as I mentioned episodes ago, but heck, I just didn't expect this to be it. Just like the sketches of Lili's drawings of a Kit crawling under his blanket, I only had a rough idea of what it is, and that it's going to change everything. And it did, for better for worse. And this does set precedence to everything from here on, to what Kit will do about not the romance haha if you thought that was still a thing, maybe...? Yeah, but instead of that, where will this lead to. I still firmly believe that Lili's side will also receive some aggression from specifically the mother and the mom has a new season to pull her daughter back from England which might be under attack (because remember WWI did not involve Asia) and that will bring in a future arc sooner than later, though I would argue it will hardly be much after this, we are near the end and not like we're going to get a sequel. *giggles* Please don't, original animations have the power to stop and save the series, they don't have to make it 4 seasons plus 2 movies. *laughs* So  yeah, we shall see where this leads next, but meanwhile, I'll need my tissue box. BRO, THIS IS ONLY IN TWO EPISODES!!! *laughs*

P.S. "As long as I was in England, I thought all I could eat were smelly fish and boiled potatoes." I mean Lili-chan in your defence, this is the case a century later too so *laughs* (Some British guy is going to assassinate me in my sleep) (or agree with me) "It's a boring village with nothing to offer, but I guess I like it here." Yeah Dorothy is right Lili, don't dunk on their smelly rivers, they live by it and same too for my hometown. *dabs*

P.P.S. "I thought you'd been raised in the Highlands by the wolves." WOAH WOAH Henry Church you calling your wife a BI~TCH??!!! *laughs* "I thought I'd never meet another man so uncivilized." OOF GET HIM haha hey this is a symbol of a great marriage ladies and gentlemen and Kit hehe this is sarcasm not the real problem with some marriages *giggles*

Yeah, Kinme Cleaning got bought out by a private equity firm, and confidence dropped? TYPICAL. *laughs* In this new episode where things never go according to plan apparently with our new girl here (#KiNiShite08) but I think I was spoiled, isn't this like, Yomiya Hina? *laughs* Oh it's Toono Hikaru, hey, what's up. *giggles* Definitely screwed up the name of our new girl earlier haha just called her Aya it's a more common name too (hey Yaya-san what's up as I opened my Instagram feed), she is Uka, the town's coordinator who can't communicate- Wrong Anime. *laughs* Ah, so many jokes just bringing in the new tourism coordinator of the city hall and I don't think I want to start backtracking where Atami is in this but let's just say she works for the government haha ah hey she does, but instead of getting a desk job, she got a people's job, which I must say is taking a toll on this poor girl considering she probably has a useless degree like Art or something. *laughs* I would tell her to change her job but then she might be even eating less than beansprouts by next week lol that's an "Engage Kiss" joke and yes I did look down at the Moyashi T-shirt I am wearing to remind myself of that LMAO (the lore is far and long, and I will not bore you with it) but yeah, don't think she is living off a good salary either. Sadly, her life surrounds dealing with people from reserving accommodation to stuff that she needs to know a lot about especially people, it's weird to see her ask Wakana-chan here for advice when all she did was just offer up a stain cleaning on some dude's shirt- Excuse me while I get a coffee stain on my pants. *dabs* ANYWAYS haha no one will get that joke it shouldn't even be here I should just put a disclaimer lol, so yeah it's abrupt but uh, communication 101, ladies and gentlemen, as explained by Wakana-chan. For starters, be present. Everywhere. Not at home being a degenerate, actually go out and hang out, talking is not necessary especially if you already know someone and start from there. At some point, everyone will know you, and it's easier to get to know, and even, communicate with someone. I don't do any of those so I'm just reading the script. *laughs* And from my limited experience which I ALSO don't do, favours. Helping out others without asking much in return at that scale will benefit you in the long run, and especially as a job as a coordinator. So yeah, help out Ayu-chan at the photo shoot will ya, Kinme-san? *giggles* YEAH WE GOT HER DUDE- And I should thank Ayu-chan all the damn way but also likely because this is her first real friend in the city (lmao) but also not like Wakana can refuse, so thanks to her, we get to see a lot of things actually, under this hot, summer sun. *silence* I meant in the show, I'm just sweating because it's afternoon in a tropical country. *laughs* But in case you haven't enjoyed a little of whatever those are as in their little outing in a remote island shout out to Hatsushima, you won't be bothered so much of the nostalgia Wakana felt when on the island even though she doesn't remember anything from more than 2 years ago. *cringe* All in all... imagine ALL of this is done using AI. What is even the point- I don't mean the animation, I rather AI take over that and we might get better quality. *laughs* But I mean like, the real life. The jobs they do, the experiences they shared including doing a photo shoot. Having real friends and hanging out in the public bath as a woman. *giggles* Also, this Ayu...chan. *giggles* She has the least fierce red eyes I have seen in an Anime typically associated with demons. Maybe she is, me, you just didn't know her enough. *dabs* But yeah, looks like the new girl did bring a lot of dynamic to the series which is interesting why they only introduced her halfway through the series, but never too late, I guess? Heck, Kinme-san needs more publicity for her laundromat, just post those images of her in a swimsuit (more to the lines of bikini already I would say) on the laundromat's Facenote page with like, a tagline of washing swimsuits and orders will FLOOD IN- Oh, elementary school students don't know what that means. *laughs*

P.S. "Of course you do need some knowledge and skills to clean well..." Yeah of course we need to remember the laundromat stuff from before 2 years ago lol don't worry about it dude "...I think I do this work because I enjoy seeing my customer satisfied. " That sounds wrong out of context haha a prostitute would say the same- *laughs*

P.P.S. "Huh? Kinme-san, you seem kind of used to this." Posing for a photo shoot? Don't worry about it, it's muscle reflex to her. *dabs* "Um... I've been getting some practice recently with an elementary school girl." Oh yeah? I wonder who that can be. *giggles*

[I know there's literal rack there with Kinme Wakana but AYU-CHAN SPECIAL!!! *dabs* Oh, did I spell her name wrongly again? *laughs*]

I hope not, I don't want to meet, what, that vice Principal from the "Hyakkano" series while eating sweet potato parfait with my girl or boy. *laughs* In this new episode where summer is over and its fall has come lol (#Seihantai08) so RIP all the secrets we have to keep, since there is nowhere safe unless you're into anal. *laughs* Alright me this is lame already, so let's talk about the main couple's date, and specifically, how Azuma reacted. In a nutshell? Badly. She is envious. She wants that good boyfriend who cares about her and will do whatever selfish thing she asks, even if it's going to a candid photo booth and just standing there and doing nothing. *laughs* Seriously Tani-kun, just like, make a heart shape with her or something, even I know of that. *giggles* Of course I'm not going to keep talking about how Tani did take revenge and take photos of Suzuki eating haha F**KING NORMIES (lmao) but yeah, let's talk about Azuma. She sad. *laughs* I like how she keeps thinking that she can forgive anyone for anything and that's considering the complicated relationship pool she had with her middle school friends including her ex, and I'm glad this didn't turn out to be like an "AraOto" (OMG that took me a while) scenario where she can do it with some dude and forgive him doing it inside her- Okay that didn't happen but hear me out. *giggles* But yeah, not to say she is an easy woman but please do you like me and can we date? *dabs* But yeah, it's concerning. It's especially concerning to I guess childhood friend Taira, who so wanted to stand up to her even if its just them glancing to each other at the same bowling alley and not talking directly to them but only in the toilet. *laughs* Also well, I guess Taira broke. Or we broke him. *laughs*  And that's where the polar opposites appear once again (AY YO), because never in their conversation did anyone mention this anyways, where Taira actually CARES and Azuma DOES NOT CARE. Think about it. *taps brain* Also yeah, Azuma should think about herself more because when's the last time we had to be woke and talk about empowering women in the modern society? *giggles* Please, Taira, try harder. *laughs* And I guess we can talk about Suzuki's mom and her INGENIOUS plan for bringing her future son-in-law to her place- Oh yeah, and I guess her daughter Miyu is here too. *giggles* And just like the daughter, the mom is so hyped (and also worried) about inviting such a person over, I like how Tani also doesn't give any reaction besides laughing when he left the place at not his girl but her parents. *giggles* Yeah, and I meant HER parents, the dad came back halfway even though he was supposed to play ball in a rainy weather, someone should've figured that out. *giggles* Also really, what do couples do at each other's places anyways? "Netflix and chill" probably?? NO MOM NO NOT THE SPOTIFY WE ARE GONNA GET DMCA-ED THIS WAY- Oh, the reserved logo is on the TV? We should be fine. *laughs* All in all... I love this. *giggles* Okay I mean as in, even if the reviews aren't that great, and not like people think this is a masterpiece, but I say this romance comedy is for me, and it's a niche I will miss and have missed over time. Maybe it's just that I like such shows which display differences in character and how they mix, think like "Komi-san" is also a good example, and slapping it with jokes until it's fuller than Suzuki's dad before dinner. *laughs* Yeah, all this and boy, I just slap the social media (it's "Bluesky" by the way) with all the damn jokes, I wish it had more attention. Banger opening theme song too... why are you watching whatever 3rd season of popular shit? *giggles* Yeah, this is great, and I can't WAIT to see Azuma liking how much Taira cares about her when she doesn't. *dabs* Trust me, I want to me that guy for someone, I really do. 

P.S. "Don't give up on real life Suzuki." Never. *dabs* Where is she? *laughs* Oh if you meant real life Miyu-chan then I know where. *giggles*

P.P.S. "So... what about until then? And what about after that?" If the mom's appearing at some point, Suzuki, then have s*x. *laughs* She WON'T DARE to come into your room if she hears the bed shaking. *dabs* And lock the door. *laughs*

(*Links to Apple Music Japan, in English where applicable, of current year unless specified)

I guess I only talk about live audio releases if I give any songs I've not given before, so maybe we'll stick to that for a start.

And that's one each to SanPashi and RyokuShaka because I can't seem to reject their songs haha and I guess I was stricter back then with their albums or I just want some emotional songs, and not like Akarin and Ushio Reira afterwards provided any, so I added them to the library. *giggles* Akarin is still a no-go so I'm leaving the B-side also, and Ushio Reira somewhat met my expectations as I think I did mention about a couple of songs I'm keen on from last week after listening to the album preview.

Yeah, that's it, what a way to end the month, not even with yanaginagi. *laughs*

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

Wow, this is a lot, so I took the liberty to ignore some... less important stuff. Like lyric videos because not like you can read them. *laughs*

Anyways haha there are WAY TOO MANY live audio releases I will make sure to forget them so I can actually take a break half of the week to be real honest with ya I thought I could dedicate to listening to them as they come out but it looks like I can't. *shrugs* plenty sure is plenty weird (lol) whatever they are doing, and I'm sure SCANDAL will disappoint me again somehow. *giggles*

Oh, wacci's new live video is not archived. *laughs*

(*Release type in square brackets, else assume single song release)

Yeah, I didn't deal with Nagi-san last month a.k.a. it released yesterday (lol) so I will do so next week. Next week we also have Furui Riho's new album which will likely do better than Ushio Reira I would argue, and then maybe I'll listen to Rieri's new song in 3 years to see if her writing the lyrics will change anything. Seeing the motto of Klassic Note? I highly doubt so. *giggles*

And I guess I still have backlogs from recent live audio releases so uh, I guess I don't get to take a break then. *laughs*

Oh boy, did I watch the making video for Yui-chan's photobook last year where she went to Finland and probably showed more skin than she did with the Singapore trip. *shrugs* I specifically like the close-up shots (obvious) but more specifically when she was up on the Ferris wheel and said something like "this will be a problem for people who have fear of heights" and then she was forced to take the 3rd round (maybe for more photos) and then looked rather scared about it. *silence* So yeah, she was referring to herself. *laughs*

Also, I think I better get the BOOTH doujishi order going now that I've confirmed it and see some go out of stock *cries* so yeah, I'm not waiting for next month's Tenso batch to stack up, that'll be for later. I'm also thinking of using BuyAndShip in the near future since shipping over there is indeed WAY LESS even if they charge a little for proxy shipping AND you can do forwarding yourself. So yeah, Tenso + Buyee but from the same company and cheaper. *shrugs* So anyways thanks for reading, I will need to tidy up some stuff before upgrading this PC at some point as I have done for my dad yesterday which went... well... I just backed up his data and wiped the drive since I can't save it so it's fine, Windows 10 wasn't worth remembering. *dabs*

See you guys next week, and until then... Maybe I need a second opinion of my life. *laughs*
