Hey, if I'm keeping this viewing order just because, why not? I kind of want to start with loving Miku (yes I remembered to add a link from her Instagram account) and end with f**king normies making out because my life sucks. *cries*

What actually WILL suck though is work so maybe I should just go to that cruise with my sis instead (lol) just to offset the terrible, TERRIBLE days I will have to deal with overtime if this ever balances out or something. The only thing not balanced is my wallet because I don't even need to update this tonight to tell you- You know cruises are just like a mini shopping mall, right? And being in it means spending money? *cringe*

So yeah ignoring all that haha that's why I say starting with "Aishiteru Game" does help, because I wish I was as hot as those romance Anime dudes so I can actually get laid- Hey me, you probably had that chance, you just whiffed it. *laughs*

Let's!

Yeah what about Miku yeah, Yukiya?? Okay me, you gotta slow down on the Miku mentions I don't think her Instagram account has that many images just this year alone, we aren't going that far back. *laughs* In this new episode where cheap things don't work lol (#AishiteruGame03) so we are going the expensive route huh, Yukiya. To be fair, this is what happens when you date Hinako-san who works at the cafe and why wouldn't you just go work at the cabaret if you want more money (lmao) but hey, if you need a sugar daddy Hinako-san then I'm available. *dabs* Anyways haha coming back, let's talk about how much more we have learned about Yukiya's past and how wrong he was about his childhood friend. *giggles* Hey, he's just 15, he don't know sh*t like romance. *silence* I don't know much either at TWICE his age so *cringe* but still, not taking much hints in middle school on how much this childhood friend (and that's how I can avoid mentioning Miku too much- F**K) actually just wants to be with him, wrote SO MANY things on his graduation book, for a moment you would think that Yukiya here is super popular with the girls and has more than 1 friend and yes, the one friend is Miku here. *laughs* Still, bro didn't get the memo that she is already in love with him, though of course I would argue that one has to keep up appearances so, you know, they will actually keep falling in love with you, and I guess this is what happens when you get Yukiya's- *laughs* When he gets his mojo back. *giggles* But uh, maybe consult someone else in your life next time. *laughs* Ah hey, I would argue following a shoujo manga series that your younger sister is reading won't be the best idea on the planet, but somehow it's still better than thinking that everything luxurious would be fitting of your girl even though I guess it does, but think about how you could have saved some money AND still be able to princess carry her without her showing her panties in public. *laughs* Again, not going to ask Yukiya if he thought this through, but at the very least... He did not think of sleeping that night. *giggles* Which brings us to the girl I guess. No, I'm not going to mention her name LMAO, but yes, she is in love. We don't have to go through with the kissing. *giggles* I would even argue that the hugging at the end might have worked wonders, even though it's her hugging Yukiya for comfort- No, hugging Yukiya TO comfort him of all the hard work (and money) he has put in into let's just call this a date, so yeah, the game doesn't matter no more. *laughs* All in all... I love this Anime that is just dunking on myself and loving a girl that will never in real life love me. *laughs* Yes, that's called 15 years ago, you doofus. *giggles* Talking about me, by the way. *laughs* I will NEVER bring myself to have that much rizz while following a romance work AND be able to look this good as I have never in front of... anyone actually. *laughs* Still, I like how we have the side characters more involved this time around though their advice is not that great lol, still was able to make Yukiya cook up a cringe enough date that these two will remember, so that isn't bad. Just maybe yabai or something, if what was shown bookmarked on his comic books is true, we might have to see them kiss next week. I see the younger sister did suggest a lot of locations at the next episode preview (lol) but what if because Yukiya was tired and he DID book a hotel room in advance, that we- *laughs* I'm done, this is not normie talk anymore. *laughs*

[TL:DR; Go watch Itou Miku crack some eggs haha that's all I want to say, really. *dabs* That sounds wrong why is she doing it herself? *laughs*]

P.S. "There's no telling how (Miku's) feelings are going to change going forward." Oh, it's going very well, actually, you need not have done anything, bro. *giggles*

P.P.S. "Don't you put some extra thought into it when you're buying something a little nicer than usual?" Yeah I guess I do I have to think whether it's even worth to buy your photobook, Yui-chan. *dabs* (I did, actually, so this is just a joke hehe) "Trust in Hinako-san and the shoujo manga filled with a girl's dreams!" Oh, you poor man. *laughs*

[14 vs 24 Miku wins this week's screenshot game- You know this is a losing battle right, Yukiya? *giggles* GIF SPECIAL!!! *laughs* (Yes I made that meme image last week unlike the one above)]

YEAH YEAH LET US GET THIS DONE AND OVER WITH- Oh, I did this last week too? *laughs* I did not I was joking, and I hope Kazuya was joking in this new episode (#KanoKari52) where he THINKS he can turn this catastrophe around. *giggles* And I guess he kind of did as seen from the intro flashback where Kazuya deliberately stated that no matter that he will have to put the blame of all these lies on him eventually when this falls apart. And now that it does, his solution, an irony to what Chizuru thought of how back then, is to fake it for real. So yeah, they are really going out... and it's not rental. Which also means the money he gave her is to the real girlfriend and the dad better believe it LMAO okay we know where the ball's at the court now. It's with the staff who want to clear of this incident- It just depends if Chizuru can go along with it- IT IS THE ONLY WAY, RUKA-CHAN!! *laughs* So yeah, in case you wonder, this will likely be the only way out, and dear author? I get it. I get why you would need to try to justify everyone's reactions in this episode just so we can talk about this main couple who themselves aren't even one lol. I get why Kibe has no reason to defend his bro anymore even if it means just lying to the bro the whole time even though Kazuya himself doesn't get to choose on how to wrap up the lie because of that one bitch Mami-chan. *cringe* I also get why Ruka-chan and that other guy LMAO I just forgot his name- Oh, Kuri-kun. I get why they will defend Kazuya even if all he said was he was really dating Chizuru for real no rental girlfriend BS and that does not mean they have progressed to the part where they would share a kiss in public just so they can prove they are a couple in front of Mami-chan of all people... Okay maybe the Kinoshita family too, they would be pleased. *laughs* Really makes you wonder how bad this is even with a proper conclusion, even if it has a proper ending, on the family reputation. We don't take "not great" for an answer. *laughs* All in all... Did you get jebaited by the sudden ending theme from previous season playing? I didn't, I saw the official social media talking about this acoustic version. *laughs* Yeah, but apart from cutting at the absolute wrong time (lol) and yes I did skip all the silence again so it's record-breaking watch time here during this part of the story arc, but yes as expected, Chizuru had to act once again. *wink* So you see in case you don't get the ONLY direction this drama is going forward from here, and you can come back next week to prove me right once the next episode airs lol... OF COURSE Kazuya is forcing Chizuru to show hand even if she didn't at the church in the previous season but that's because she wanted to deal with the one bitch in the series I shall not mention of her name anymore. *giggles* OF COURSE by choosing their only way out it will piss of Mami-chan because even if Chizuru can lie to everyone in the water park including the staff lol, Mami here can just leak this to her talent company and her WHOLE acting career will be in jeopardy or just be ruined to hell just like where she should be going towards *dabs* and OF COURSE this would derail all of their promises to each other and everyone else present, just to keep this one lie going... for who knows how long later. Hey, Kazuya can still break up with Chizuru after all of this and the one kiss. *laughs* Yeah, Chizuru is likely to initiate first. *laughs* Yeah Chizuru, just say this is the worst and then break up with your boi and THEN we will see who gets the revenge on all of this first. *dabs* Alright me, THANK GOODNESS I'm not the author, so let's see where this goes. The future breakup is super unlikely by now by the way, in case you wonder. *giggles*

P.S. "Did (Mami) drop her phone on purpose?" Ah that one is a yes. *giggles* "It's obvious! I just have to do nothing!" YEAH RUKA-CHAN YOU CANNOT DO SH- *laughs*

P.P.S. "That's right, Kazu-chin. It was all a dream." Yeah Kibe is right bro now WAKE THE F**K UP YOU NEED TO PAY FOR HER SERVICES NOW- *laughs*

Damn, why must they make us take the happiness AND sadness together? Didn't we opt for cough syrup instead? Why did they get Kana-chan to say all this? *laughs* Oh what the heck it doesn't matter the mom is dead and you're halfway there already Hinagiku (#ShunkashuutouDaikousha06) so *cringe* I'm sorry we should keep this aside for now. Now that I think about it though? Those insurgents miiiight have a grudge to the Village of Spring. And we are protecting that right now. Cringe much? Hey, the ratings are going up, people like this dark shit. *laughs* Alright alright let's come back to the lore, because we do have more coming in, and it might show what has happened in the decade past. So to summarize if you haven't been crying all this time like I do lol okay maybe my eyes are just a bit wet, time brings us back to where Sakura lost all hope when Hinagiku was captured. To be more specific, it's the one we saw her crawl the Village of Spring's walls (I mean, kinda, she used the tree but still) to talk and play with. What came back 8 years later instead of the 10 as we have been mistaken so far, is still Hinagiku... but not really. I mean, effectively Hinagiku when she surrendered herself, she is already dead? (No, please don't make the "TanMoshi" reference like what you did on social, that's not it lol) I think the easiest way to explain this is like, or maybe it's a thing that Agents of Seasons can do too, but for her case, she likely manifested a rather soulless version of her as she slowly died inside (but not like the modern day one where you still had to go to work tomorrow LMAO CRINGE haha) and then... just departed to join her real mom. *silence* I'm not sure how this works and how it CAN work, but the result is then a kind of broken soul of Hinagiku who managed to escape the insurgents somehow I don't know maybe the part where Hinagiku doesn't want to kill is not with her anymore *cringe* even to the extent of appearing BACK in the Village which wanted her dead in the first place. There is no dignity in this, by the way, but thank goodness she doesn't remember anything... apart from Sakura. Just uh, the memories haven't fully returned, so this Hinagiku is going on how she should just die after just escaping from death in the first place- You guys got that? (lol) Hey Hinagiku, there's only 2 ways about this and I'll lay this out in case Sakura didn't: Either you kill 2 people at once, or Hinagiku doesn't get to die. That's the curse now. *dabs* Or Hinagiku gets to date Rosei, yeah that. *laughs* Sakura be like nooooooooo *laughs* but yeah to live with this... As stated in the ending, this is no longer love. This is more like a dependency, which used to be Sakura living for ye old Hinagiku, but now is more like the new Hinagiku also wants to live... for Sakura, who has never changed their feelings for her. *smiles* All in all... I F**KING HATE the idea that they just replaced human Hinagiku with an AI. *laughs* No really, if this isn't robotics in the new era, I don't know what is. *dabs* But okay jokes aside though? If not for these two being alive? I would NOT have given a f**k about this series, let alone two f**ks. *silence* But maybe, maybe just a little, they may have gone too far on the storytelling and character development. I have said this from the start and I still adore this not gonna lie here, but yeah, as much as I don't want to watch a sad tale of fickleness and survival, we are presented in the cinema on the front seat blasted with surround sound, the death and revival of love that I even wish I could see someday. *cringe* So yeah, this series kinda nailed it in that aspect. As to whether Rosei and Itecho who are literally under the same umbrella of people who want the girls dead and whether they are forgiven? Maybe we will get some forgiveness someday. Maybe. Hate is not the only fuel for defence, you know. Look at Ichigo- *laughs* ALRIGHT I'LL STOP lol

P.S. "She... the old me... she liked (Rosei), so even now... Hinagiku can't keep wondering." Wait, WHO?? *cringe* Oh, so with the flashback means this old her is- RIP less cute Hinagiku. *giggles* (Hey, it might be the cuter one to be honest- CAN'T COMPARE THEM NOW!!! *laughs*)

P.P.S. "I'll hunt down everyone who tried to protect you and kill them all." OH NO YOU DON'T Yocchan how dare you be the most evil character in this series. *watches end credits* I F**KING KNEW IT- *laughs* I mean it's rather obvious when you watched 15 years of Anime. *dabs*

I know right, we just want the sweet, sweet imouto moment with Yuru- Yes, I mean Asa-chan. *laughs* In this new episode where reunions are fake and brocon is real LMAO (#YomiNoTsugai05) hey do you love your brother this much you would even ASK for a hug every time you see him? Yeah you just go in for the kill. If you die because of that, at least you'll die happy. *laughs* Also Asa-chan you are too important to die... yet, so that's not gonna happen, so just try. *giggles* Okay jokes aside let's talk about how actually peaceful this episode is. *laughs* Okay, the assailants definitely ruined it here for us at the end, but before that, it was all peaceful. The Kagemori clan did not intend to kill Yuru at any point for obvious reasons Asa-chan might just end up erasing this clan from existence LMAO, so yeah, we can't be more excited about their reunion... after we clean up the mess at the car park and have to explain to the security guard what just happened. You know, someone's car horn went off and blew out ALL the fluorescent lights. And that's why LED is better- NOPE. *laughs* (I recently learned that cool light colours are bad for one's stress levels, even warm LEDs are a lie) Moving on haha and that's for a bit on Dera-san going to "get his son" lol at 2am by the way, because they did find out where they ended up at. You know, just your enemy's headquarters surrounded by Daemons, nothing to worry about. *giggles* I shall leave this part for next time because I think they might need some time even by cab to travel across the prefecture lol, so let's talk about the lore. Story goes that some years ago Yuru and Asa's mom chanced upon Higashi Village and got f**ked by the father (LMAO) which produced the Lords of night and day and I'm not going to elaborate that for now I don't know anything either, but what was weirder is that upon the parent's exit of the Village just to report to specifically the mom's parents on her hometown of Okinawa.. and we had to explain how to get there or where it is to Yuru lol... Uh, they just disappeared. And this isn't even the Australia Prime Minister who disappeared, dude. *laughs* It's the parents of the descendants of day and night who just fall ruin to the world's demise, dude. I guess they aren't important. *laughs* So yeah, vanished, even the guard from the Kagemori clan who were with them. Maybe betrayed, maybe the opponent was too strong, maybe terrorists who turned off the transponder once the plane left the mainland... *giggles* Who knows? Anything could happen at that point. *shrugs* All in all... I don't think this will win Fullmetal Alchemist anytime soon even though I have never watched it. *laughs* But hey, it's sitting at overall positive reception online so I'm not complaining and neither should you. And yes, I want the sibling hug at some point. We will get it to happen somehow, Asa-chan. *giggles* Meanwhile, looks like we have some trouble going on, and I WOULD NOT EVEN BE SURPRISED if it's that Asami we just saw earlier, but seeing that Jin doesn't know who they are they are likely not within the clan... This can't be Dera-san, right? Just saying, no way dude. *giggles* (No I really don't know I don't read source materials-)

P.S. "What a long cave." Yeah and unlike normal caves, it can be exited the other way. *dabs* (You think I should explain TBMs? Nah, maybe next time lol) (The audience might not even know what that is, the machines that were used to bore these tunnels-)

P.P.S. "They seem perfectly in tune with each other." Bro that's how you know they are sisters- I mean, siblings. *laughs* (I TOTALLY said that wrongly to myself in case you wonder why this mistake was here)

You see, the problem with JUST making out is that- *laughs* I'm not going to age-gate this review so I'll keep it clean- WHERE IS THE S*X lmao alright let's talk about the new episode where somehow it's hotter than where I live now hehe (#OtonariNoTenshiSamaS205) I really should not ask for bikini anymore, we had that last time already. *giggles* Also related, the making out last week is more cringe or just talking about Amane and his not friends? *laughs* I gotta say, the Tojo one is probably the worst part, thank goodness. But Hanada isn't any better here mainly because unlike the people who used to bully Amane in middle school, this one's his friend and left him to be bullied. *cringe* I would like to make a statement with regards to how ANY OF THIS should NOT be happening even to people related to them and not like Hanada can do anything if they aren't strong-willed enough back then to deter these kinds of people... Again, some people deserve to be punished, and I don't mean Ikkun. *laughs* Speaking of which, I guess we can move on from the family trip- SHIHOKO NO GO AWAY LET GO OF SHIINA-SAN!! *laughs* Yeah, let's talk about the summer festival. We got bikini previously already and that's why the indoor pool special episode every episode is special episode if you think about it *dabs* so instead we'll show Shiina Mahiru in glorious yukata- And why not also Amane, the mom had to buy these for her anyways. *laughs* And then it's basically seeing Chitose eating lots of food lol, Chitose getting praised and then insulted by Ikkun, and THEN more of Chitose eating because she can't get fat- *laughs* Do you EVEN want me to talk about how the main couple is just attracting eyeballs and just Amane with ALL the damn rizz it makes the dad pale in comparison? Well, I guess the dad plus Shihoko will give you such a rizz master, huh. Oops. *laughs* All in all and I'll keep this short this series is kind of better to enjoy at your own pace... I sometimes wonder if I have such rizz as Amane. *giggles* I mean if I do get a girlfriend, I obviously don't if I'm a degenerate writing a blog. *laughs* Nah, Chitose's conversation with Amane didn't provoke me in any way, no way. *laughs* Still, this is A LOT BETTER than just making out for the past few episodes and THANK GOODNESS (lmao) I could take a breather... but that doesn't mean this is over yet. *sigh* Haha alright me, we can savour this a little, getting exposed by Chitose of Mahirun's aggression and Amane exposed of more of his childhood is still WAY better than talking about Shiina's family. *cringe* Hopefully no more mentions of that next week! *smiles*

P.S. This week's special ending song is a cover (what a surprise) of "Natsu Matsuri (1990)" from JITTERIN'JINN, and I think I've heard of this before even though I know NOTHING of the song- The cover song is on music streaming services now, by the way, you're welcome. *wink*

P.P.S. "You're such a second generation silly couple." This series in a nutshell, ladies and gentlemen. *laughs*

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

Okay, ironically? Not Mocho did well this week. *laughs*

Maybe it's just me listening to this on the train as I always do, or maybe I have higher hopes with the B-side written by the one and only Watanabe Sho? But yeah, Mocho did not get me this week- Her appearance in Nan-chan's gaming livestream on Friday did more to me than this single. *laughs* So yeah, I'll focus on giving Kodama Hikari if that's a possibility (hehe) and anewhite which apparently gave me a listen to a good song, so maybe those.

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

Yeah okay, who didn't see it coming Naobou's new music release in her final year of her solo music career leading up to a Budokan live in March? I know I did. *laughs*

If I recall because I'm an old man in my 30s now lol, ORAL CIGARETTES' new live video also got me to listen to one of their past lives ie. the one last week (LMAO) which song was released last year, so I might just give that above what I just listed in this week's listens. Sad to see UNISON go but what are you gonna do I don't think their style is as easy to hold up as their own compositions which can be seen spread across the solo artists in Japan no joke, and I want to bang Ogura Yui on a motorbike. *laughs*

Okay that was bad this is a music review segment, so let's say Ten-chan's new EP trailer got me quite good as with Ako-san's, so I'll be giving them a listen when the time comes. *thumbs up*

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

This month... is going to be rather quiet. *laughs* End of the month will be hype though, but considering it's already going to be ruined by... everything IRL? I highly doubt so. *sob*

I knew I shouldn't have watched Koko-chan's latest video of taking that love personality quiz because other than it's likely catered more to Japanese just because and I can understand that even though it's available in many languages... The point that her... lover... Koga-chan (lol) just sent her her result which was compatible with hers? MAKES ME RAGE- It should have been me~!!! *laughs* Okay dude stop dreaming, going to MUJI earlier this week didn't make you more Koko-chan. *giggles* Oh, apparently I'm a cute dog or something but considering I lock myself in the shelter I don't think I will get chance to be picked up to show my love. *shrugs* In other things, I think the new keyboard combo is giving me the same damn problems as I had with Logitech and all I needed is to ensure the solar keyboard is charged most of the time, so uh, I may just change it back next week. *laughs* Maybe it is time to get my final option which I have kept on my Amazon wish list for YEARS- Yeah, why did I go with this first? Because it's cheap? It's cheap alright can't even stay connected. *giggles* See you guys next week then, and until then... Maybe I play a game longer than "inKONBINI". *laughs* Or not, I do whatever, I don't care. I just need a break from everything. *sigh*
