Haha no no Koko-chan happy birthday I would never do this to you and your photobooks- *laughs* But yeah not her, I meant as in the many things that are about to change real soon. For reference, read back on me saying goodbye to Audioleaf as it shuts down, and looks like Random Curiosity is as good as dead before I can do another season preview, so RIP all of these stuff on ye old Internet that I have been following for a decade, maybe even more. *sob*

Oh good news, you can read the fanfics where I had close quarters s- phone call with Mocho *giggles* but I'm not on the call, I'm just there, doing the hug buddy thing like I demanded. *dabs*

Afternoon naps are great now with that blackout screen I bought recently and I wonder why I haven't done so lol, but they don't exist on Sundays so here's more Anime and music!!! *laughs*

WOMEN AMIRITE FELLAS??!! *silence* And that's why I am still single. *laughs* Also uh, why are we back here again, why is there a recap? *cringe* In this new episode where they had to pad the ending haha WHAT (#AishiteruGame11) lol, hey Anime, can you promise not to do that again? I can remember what happened last week. *giggles* So, about everything that happened in Miku's place. *laughs* Please, I want to make as much of a fuss as the next guy in class and I mean Nacchan lmao, but hey, maybe we show how sad or unglam this is compared to typical scenarios of someone who visits another who is ill, in this case Miku who is running a fever after... whatever she did to Yukiya or whatever. *laughs* Firstly... Yukiya can't cook for sh*t. *laughs* Yes, I gotta diss that just because and you are welcome, but then again not like I would know how to going in to say, the place of some chick I know to take care of them, so thanks for the tip bro now I just need to worry if they have a microwave oven ready. *giggles* Yeah, do that do me like, a couple of years ago and that would NOT have worked because I bought one for the kitchen recently. *laughs* But yeah, instead of like, cooking porridge or something, that thing isn't present, so it is a little uncool, but not like we are making Yukiya fall ill at any point considering we are at the last stretch, so let's ignore that part this isn't targeted at a female audience after all. *wink* Next, there was a fuss. And I think that's mostly the problem mainly because of what happened before this, the jealousy and everything that Yukiya has NO IDEA of even until now, and Miku thinking that the most underhanded thing she can do in revenge of what she saw her boi playing around with some chick in class (lol) is to kiss him? Yeah, this is Anime alright. *laughs* And lastly, what it means for Yukiya to care about the weak childhood friend. See Miku, the thing is... you are worth worrying about. That's what childhood friends are for- Oh, not like this? Then YOU explain to her without doing any confessions. *laughs* Because really, with the romance or not, you would be nice to them if they fell ill. And I meant that for the both of them, if you think about it. *wink* So yeah, why chicken out on the apologies, why chicken out on the thanks, and just care for each other more. I know love is also like this, but we can don't talk about that. Ever. No really, it's not that important, just because and I want to emphasize, now Miku knows that too, that they have each other. And that's all that matters, I don't know if this makes sense to you guys or not, but heck, I think this is good enough if we're talking about feels and not like, be straightforward with each other, that's for next week. *giggles* All in all... I know this is all I have wanted of this series, but uh, I felt like I just walked in to another Anime. A more mellow one. Emotional one, even. Maybe it's the soundtrack I don't know, but heck, if not for their banter, I really would've thought. *giggles* Also unrelated, can we get a romance arc for Nacchan going? I just want to bang Ede-chan. No? *giggles* We can't bang here? *laughs* But yeah, as you can see they are maaaaaaaybe getting around to each other at some point hopefully at the very least as childhood friends, because even if we don't get a satisfying ending next week, I really want to see them be friends again. Without the romance? Probably not. Without the game first would be great, for starters. *wink*

[TL:DR; We have been through so much as childhood friends and you say you suck? *laughs*]

P.S. "Yukiya's so nice, and yet I caused him so much trouble by doing dumb shit." Uh... Who is going to tell her the truth? Anyone? *giggles*

P.P.S. "I don't know, but I don't hate how I feel." You mean the fever or your relationship with Yukiya?" *dabs*

[6 vs 17 WHAT A SURPRISE haha hey that one chick fell ill what else do you expect me to take screens of her other than her changing- *laughs*]

Yeah I know right, damn the next season spoilers. *giggles* So yeah I'm going to ignore that first and talk about the final episode this season (#KanoKari60) where... how do you ask to live with some chick you don't really have a relationship with and are still paying them to be your girlfriend? *laughs* Don't ask me, I'm single and a virgin. *dabs* If this is what we are answering though... you know we don't have answers here. *laughs* To keep this simple and not reference flashbacks just like how this loser episode did lol, let's talk about what has gone through so far. Firstly, Mini-chan's suggestion. I mean, OF COURSE she is going to suggest a stayover until Kazuya can find a place to stay. OF COURSE she will explain to Chizuru such that it makes a convincing call to help each other as roommates of that one apartment where they can't stay anymore for now. OF COURSE Mini-chan wants those two in the same bed- No, wait. *laughs* OF COURSE Mini-chan is ensuring that Kazuya gets the help he needs considering he practically has nowhere else to go for now. I mean, not like I need to defend him or anything, and not like I'm waiting for Kazuya to say no to this deal which will make Mini-chan LIVID lol for some reason, so yeah, sure man, just one month, Chizuru. We'll get to your a** in a month- Uh, I mean, we'll get to your lips in a month. *laughs* So like, 12 episodes, right? *laughs* I sure hope so though. And this is good time for me to talk about Chizuru's feelings. I mean, CLEARLY drunk Kazuya confessing his love to Chizuru is having an effect on her. *wink* Well, I don't think the drunk part is needed, but drunk means real honest talk so maybe she got it this time? And then whatever happened this season that turned her on enough to pull him back when he was on top of her?? Haha yeah, turns out her weakness is kissing this one guy. Well, probably just kissing I don't think she has kissed anyone other than her grandparents. *shrugs* So virgin. *laughs* But yeah, if it's on a whim and she DID enjoy it, what's wrong with making out with some dude if you're going to be a celebrity with all the damn gossip? Heck, "some average guy" is easier to swallow for your fans than getting married to a colleague. *laughs* I know right, who even does that? *cringe* ANYWAYS haha, we know Chizuru is just trying to wiggle her way out as she hinted to Mini-chan about the "investigation" BS and we all know well Kazuya your nightmares don't deceive us no way, but yeah, what if you don't? I DO NOT THINK SHE WOULD IF THEY ARE ALL LIVING UNDER ONE ROOF!!! *laughs* All in all... I keep forgetting that this series is about rentals, just like DMM. *laughs* Renting the girlfriend, renting the kiss scene but with extra service charge, renting Chizuru's old place to stay for a month... It's all rental. *giggles* We also rented like, 60 episodes of this story already from almost 6 years ago so uh... When are we paying back? *laughs* So yeah, that's what this series is about. *laughs* Hey, I appreciate the author making ALL of our dreams come true in Anime and then making us the cuck and watch this loser get all the fun lol, but heck, at least it's more interesting dealing with death, I'll promise you that. *cringe* Otherwise though, adding in Mini-chan will be a good choice, I wonder if anything romantic will happen OF her because otherwise it'll just be FROM her which is like, yeah, we don't need another cameraman on set, thanks. *laughs* Though a cosplayer in house sounds like fun... Or else, then maybe  we are going to see some j-j-j-jealousy incoming? OH BOY SEE YOU GUYS IN 2030!!! *laughs*

P.S. "You wouldn't budge an inch, and it felt like you'd throw up any water we gave you." And I tried to kiss you and you didn't even react that's how drunk you were- Oh, we can leave that part out? *giggles*

P.P.S. "I'll never get a girl like that to seriously consider me an option again." Yo same brother. *laughs* But yeah, his is Anime so not possible, but mine is real, very real. *sob*

[No versus this week I'll end with ALL GIRLS ROUND-UP!!! Yeah, including Mami-chan, sadly. *laughs*]

Sadly writing this is NOT a dream I am in pain and spring is already over and I'm sweating buckets LMAO so let's talk about the final episode (#ShunkashuutouDaikousha14) where we forget everything sad and bring in happiness. Yeah, we brought in Spring into this fictional Japan, but where's the happiness? Well turns out, it's Misuzu- I mean, Rosei. *laughs* Okay, let me point out the obvious first even though I've already rebutted the heck out of Kasai on social media: Who f**king cares. *giggles* Now that we got that aside, the summary is that taking over the world shouldn't involve violence because if that's all you know how to do, you aren't going to make anyone happy. Trust me, real life is like this too. *cringe* That and yeah, trying to use the Agents as the solution to your problems? Well, as your dead (lol) daughter probably, but as a way to help the weak? With you guys killing them I don't think that will work, just saying. *shrugs* Also, it's not like the Gods are existent. They are only like,
"present", is the word. They don't show up. That's why the Agents. And we treat them as gods smh? *giggles* Hey, not gonna say that insurgents have lower IQ, but maybe they have been frozen before by Winter and enjoyed that level of stupidity so maybe that's the problem with drugs. *laughs* Jokes aside though but related, is that we keep forgetting that the Agents aren't really trained for battle. So yeah, the blood and violence and stuff... Dude, they are just to welcome the season they are in charge of, not do what Ruri-chan did last week. But that's what the premise of the series is about then, because they could've just started another story like, at this point where everyone can fight and then give them bigger problems to deal with, but treat this as more of a psychological than an action series, and this will make waaaaaay more sense in my opinion. Yeah, this is Anime "Babylon" but cute. *giggles* Which will also explain how shallow the antagonist backstory is, not about the daughter thing that one is fine, but her reasons to fight. Hinagiku be like "why you kill people" and she is already mad, so I'm sure that's your weakness, loser. *dabs* Haha anyways though, that part isn't much because the rest of the episode is just Sakura squealing which *blessed* I didn't know Aoyama Yoshino can do that lol, and the confession. Well, I wouldn't even call it that, but clearing up the idea of Hinagiku having to "live" for everyone else even after all those years, is brave. So brave. You wouldn't even do that unless you have been through hell and don't relate that to your office job, that is nothing compared to this. *giggles* All in all... Yeah, didn't make the wrong choice, and I don't think everyone else too. Despite weak ratings and I feel like the backstory may have dragged it down but still necessary to tell the story, I think overall it is fine? The characters are lovable, the theme songs are DOPE hehe spring season Anime always deliver the best theme songs and I don't know why, and then all this is nostalgia bait for my depressed times as a teenager, so it's all good. *laughs* I think this is also so much more palatable for me who rarely watches action series *looks at "Yomi no Tsugi and shrugs* haha just because the action is swift thanks to Itecho lmao, and it's more story-heavy instead of dealing with like, more of Hinagiku's days tortured into making drugs- Why do I keep remembering that? *laughs* Hey, if there's a Fetanyl surplus it's all her fault. *laughs* Okay I can't end on this, but I will say though, the spring dance was great, and I've only loved Hinagiku and Sakura more than those losers in Winter can ever. *dabs*

[TL:DR; "She wasn't strong enough, so we got rid of her." *laughs* THANK GOODNESS this wasn't the pitch lol]

P.S. "This dream. These words. They're all... hers. I can't... give her back." Hey, is this not the most accurate analogy for growing up? *dabs* "Thank you for staying alive." Yeah idol talk lol cringe Rosei? *laughs*

P.P.S. "Will you return his feelings?" Hey Hinagiku? Even if you dare to say yes, Sakura will disapprove, so take note of that. *laughs* (What is she, your dead mom?) (Uh....!!!)  "...you'll always be the girl... she loves most in the world." Well Sakura, time to change gender. *giggles*

Well about this... uh, looks like Random Curiosity is dead for almost a month already, and we need to do this this week honestly, and not like I'm using the cover images from the site ever since they have been Cloudflare-d so... I'm going to miss the curated reviews and/or voice actor names against characters though. *sob*

Moving on LMAO I am saying a lot of goodbyes to parts of the Internet recently, I shall use our dear friend for Anime records and how this whole site has external queries run on it if you right-click... MyAnimeList!! Everything will still be the same but I will now have to click in or scroll down to see the cast and stuff, not as great. *shrugs* Or maybe I just don't, I used to not do that, to be fair. And trust me, the other sites RC referenced display season previews WORSE. *cringe*

So, here are my comments in premiere chronological order, what new stuff I will give and diss otherwise!!

Thanks to "TanMoshi" and "Ao no Hako" (directly or indirectly) delaying their 2nd seasons to Autumn because GODDAMN I have to deal with f**king sequels I can't even. *giggles* But yeah hype for "BLEACH" there have been rumours a new manga serialization for Hell Arc is starting soon so thanks international fans *points at self* lol we made it happen, and I guess I will be as hectic as this season watching Anime every week. *shrugs* But otherwise, I will likely give the nice step-family and blind Hayami Saori a chance (lol) DESPITE having to deal with "Yomi no Tsugai" next season, don't forget.

I also did not forget if I were to give the above a chance, then Miki Shinichirou and Kujira(-san?) here will be the MVP voices this season? *laughs* Next Sunday is going to be ROUGH I might just skip lunch, honestly. *giggles*

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

Obviously ignoring PompadollS because it's just the one song in the single and not like they released instrumental versions or Anime versions or B-sides to try and get me *cringe* so welp to giving them ANY more chance. *laughs* Soko ni Naru is also unfortunately overshadowed by Trooper Salute whose album released last week and I have been mentioning last week I want to listen... but a day after the former, so yeah, they were somewhat better even though they are indie so suck it, Soko ni Naru. *giggles* I did give a couple of their songs including the title song, but Trooper Salute had 2 title songs and I ironically gave both despite initial impressions being weak, but that's also, I noticed, that their alternative rock style is reminiscent of Scenarioart and LILI LIMIT, which is why I wondered how they put the female vocalist and the male vocalist respectively in this new band. *laughs* I almost just ended up giving half the album so don't ask how many, I'll update the overall list later. *dabs* flumpool wasn't worth mentioning the title song wasn't great so I gave one of the other songs.

I also listened to OGRE YOU ASSHOLE's live album which released today just for the one song: Trust me when I said I listened to the whole thing and didn't feel anything- Do you think it's because of Trooper Salute again? *laughs*

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

There are a lot of new Anime announcements so I'll skip those as usual. And with new theme song announcements including Ueshama of all people and trust me when I say I'm hype and I want more of her songs so thank Anime to reviving the long lost music artist hehe, I'm amazed Hitsujibungaku is putting themselves on the global stage performing in Taiwan of all places- I guess they are not concerned about domestic music anymore, huh. *laughs* It's likely a guest performance, and even that is impressive imo. Sadly their newest songs don't get me no more. *shrugs*

Oh, and even though it wasn't posted on social media, YUI's official YouTube channel updated with two new music videos this week for some reason. *shrugs* Nostalgia bait maybe?

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

I will likely take this time to deal with the recent indie artist I've seen, or I'll really let YouTube take me away with all those music videos it keeps recommending me all this damn time that I ignored. *laughs* OH YEAH ROCK FESTIVALS- Oops. *giggles* Please, those aren't exactly easy to listen at work. Or to clip. *laughs*

Oh, that rotating calendar is easier to turn the other way instead of clockwise now LMAO that's how long I have not touched it. *laughs* Well, mainly because it's not eye level and also from my desk with that angle, it created a bad silhouette covering half the number displays, so it is not a good reminder to update them every day, to be real honest with ya. Also I can just look at my phone. *laughs* It's for the imouto, don't worry about it. I should worry about the DAMN F**KING PACKAGE which should be arriving sometime soon... but that's not until next month so welp my sad life of wanting to talk about auction items if you would recall *wink* but I guess then the upcoming package will be HUGE!!! *giggles* So yeah, look forward to that, me. I was thinking of whether to talk about recently released artbooks like gomzi-sensei and Mashito Kta-sensei which I missed last time, but nah, it will be August by the time it reaches me and that won't be a good enough stagger to the C108 stuff I will be talking about in September. *smiles*

See you guys next time then, and until next time... a lot of new things are good once in a while, eh? Just not a soulmate. *laughs*
