Well, I had a heavy breakfast so I'll deal with some Anime before I have lunch. *giggles*

Welcome back, people, and we aren't quite done with new shows yet so that, and I gotta say Klassic Note this week is great I got quite into it not gonna lie despite the lack of new full releases and Anime theme songs. Looks like the worst thing this week is how I learned symlinks work and how it has been removing similar but not duplicate images from my PC. *cringe*

The best thing this week? Go read the fanfic yesterday, bro!! *laughs* Oh, I'm starting with the new joke show of the season first, and I don't mean "Hyakkano" that is not until tomorrow. *giggles*

I'm in a good mood and so is my wallet and they say one shouldn't buy goods not for sale LMAO, so let's!

Ah, the girls are from the same father. *silence* I mean, kudos to the dad to be able to bang someone poor AND fall into rich people's hands... and then leave. *laughs* In this first episode of a show that isn't this depressing I assure you (#IbiKona01), turns out putting the gist of the series as your title isn't this hard after all. Watch and learn, every isekai Anime out there. *laughs* For starters, they had to douse us with the sad story, and that is to be expected. What did surprise me though, is what it entails and her very reason to be able to appear in the Kouno Kounokura household (lol) because apparently, the reason why our smol main girl Miya-chan here had to work off her a** to keep her ailing mom alive, is due to the grandmother, who likely sold her to a merchant family without even thinking. *silence* I mean, to be fair, she is old, she needs money, and not like you can go downtown and find a part-time job in a cheap clothes store (haha) so this is the next best option maybe a century ago. *cringe* But seriously dude, it's even a miracle if the grandma ever thought of selling her grand kid to the Kounokura family, THEN maybe she can earn her keep. *giggles* But it looks like she didn't she straight away ditched her like she's trash so yeah, finder's keepers, old woman. *giggles* Speaking of old women LMAO Mommy please don't end me, we can talk about the rich family. *laughs* Of course the initial impressions are scary, Miya-chan is in a new place in the city after all, without family and friends, the last thing she can expect is for people to be nice to her. Guess what? The last thing happened. *laughs* Not only are the (elder, I would assume) stepsisters just nice to her even with Arisa here telling Miya that Marika (yeah I'm gonna wordplay female voice actresses names again lol) is super nice though sarcastic as with all of them lol it runs in the genes, they also knew to not let her think being in here is a burden, even the mom thinks so too. Yeah, the last thing, dude. Real life WISHES this was the case. *giggles* Moreover, they ensured Miya-chan here was part of the family, in part so far as to allow her to start basic education which she missed out on and we aren't even talking about preschool (lmao), and then we will throw away all the damn books in dad's room so we can open up the room for Miya-chan. *dabs* See? Men are terrible after all. *laughs* No really, don't ask why the mom has all the secret passages in the house, I sure hope there isn't one to the servants quarters....? *giggles* All in all... I really am wondering what happened to the dad. *laughs* Also no, this is not the Anime about the blind girl, even though they are treating the new stepsister as one. *giggles* I mean, with a poor background and in a new environment? One could say she is one. But she is also blessed under the circumstances, though awkward and kinda pushy, but heck, ask Cinderella if she had any choice living in another roof. *cringe* So yeah, this is funny as I thought it would, I would say the animation is kinda meh but the reactions are spot-on and that's probably its strong part. Miya-chan's voice will take some time to get used to since I would expect a cuter voice just because... and I think the reactions redeemed it well hehe, so yeah, I think I can watch a couple more episodes to see what's up. It looks like a lot of depth but seeing this is a comedy slice-of-life? I'm not going to hold my breath. This won't have story depth, this won't have the fourth wall jokes lol, and this might have its emotional bits... so we shall see where this goes. For now? I'm just glad Miya-chan is alive and well. *laughs* Hard cut to a future episode where she starts using brute force because she trained for it lol

P.S. "My sister loves taking care of people, so don't be afraid to take advantage of it, okay?" Yes, and yes. *dabs* (So that is of Kouno Marika and then Serizawa Yuu voicing Marika- *laughs*)

P.P.S. "Once I came to my senses, I realized it would be irresponsible to give up the only child she left behind." WHAT THE GRANDMA YOU LEFT ME ALONE IN THIS HEAVEN?? *giggles* "You mean you were planning to take an advance by signing (Miya) over under a fixed-term labour contract?" Okay old hag, get the f**k out of here. No Mommy, I don't mean you~!!! *laughs*

[I'm NOT going to compare the sisters on screenshots because Miya-chan is included and she wins just in reactions lmao so more her]

I like how Hana-chan is worried about Yuru like a real mom now. *laughs* Don't worry, Yuru doesn't have to run off to get captured. *dabs* In this new episode where truth comes to find Yuru instead of the other way around (#YomiNoTsugai14) oh boy we do have some truths laid down here, so let's talk about them. I'm just going to ignore the shaman's burial blah blah needs 3 graves but 2 because Ivan cut his abdomen up LMAO, and also the aliens I have NO IDEA how this works but looks like animals can have contracts with Daemons too lol. So for starters, let's talk about the situation at hand. How someone is blackmailing... well at least Dera-san since Yuru doesn't know of it yet, intends to get the Kagemori family to help him sniff whoever is doing these threats. I mean, stealing the fake Asa-chan to get Yuru out? Even a genius who has spent their childhood up in the mountains won't be THAT dumb to fall for it- I'm not going to question that validity. *laughs* Also, Ivan can come for them, which is ironic how Dera-san allowed Yuru to leave their sight again though monitored by Hana's Daemons. I don't think Yuru is that sentimental even before talking about the other drop of truth in a bit, but still, because they might know about his parents more? He might just take the bait. Problem is, he can't do that without dying? That will be an issue, for sure. Yeah, heard of killing someone and THEN kidnapping them? I promise you, they are still alive. *laughs* Still, this drop won't be as bad as Danji-san riding on Oshirasama and finding Yuru- So wait, does that cast a shadow or...? *giggles* Which also answered my question last week about how Danji is not going to be discovered flying in the sky... if he were human. *cringe* So yeah, Yuru is quite a genius in noticing that considering he only recently knew of Daemons unlike Left-Right who thought he knew of them all alone. *laughs* So the truth is out I guess since the Daemons are not independent entities thanks to Ivan so fake Asa-chan is Danji's partner, and under their master who is NOT the granny as we all thought. Which makes sense, but also not really since the granny has never really fought in the TWO times the Higashi Village was attacked. Hey, you can be old and still fight. Or have Daemons. Just fall down a cliff spilling blood into their original forms. *laughs* All in all... it's exciting and all but... hmm, just like Yuru, I don't know what to make of this. For my case? I believe that the granny isn't at fault she does look like the puppet leader so far in the Village, but the idea of someone else in the Village making decisions is already kinda unsettling. If it's the granny, then it's obvious she wants to protect the Seal power from leaving and reuniting with Break power, so as far as we know will be what Yuru thinks of so far. But now that's not the case. The "leader" can literally be with the Kagemoris but that will make little purpose of their attack in the first place, so it might even be someone else. Or just pretending to be. Ivan also did not take TWO entities with him, so it doesn't make much sense what he could do, or even if he is already planning to find Danji to reunite the powers or trying to get Yuru to do so. And even that who knows what these Daemons do which I assume Ivan does. So yeah, so far not much, but Yuru has to deal with this emotional trauma before we move on so hey, Asa-chan, can you come console me right now? Your onii-chan is sad, and I said me, I don't mean Yuru. *dabs* I miss real Asa-chan already LMAO

P.S. "This guy's weirdly nice for a barbarian." Haha don't call Yuru like this, Asa-chan will come find you, Ken. *giggles* "Why don't people down here hunt food sources that are right in front of them?" This is too much to explain on social media so Yuru-kun I'll explain it here: We have enough resources that we can choose not to harm animals for survival, as they are less oily and sugary. *laughs*

P.P.S. "That scared me. They look like Tenaga-Ashinaga." No dude, thesse are aliens. *laughs* "What's going on here?" Yo Ken I also don't know, you tell me. *giggles*

Okay, this one made me laugh for real. *laughs* You never know with these spin-off episodes you know especially with the new episode (#BungouStrayDogsWanS202) where I guess we can talk about it in 3 parts, so let's quickly run through them. Firstly, the ghosts. *laughs* Well, it's not too surprising once you realize Atsushi cracking a joke which will literally piss those ghosts off lol, but uh, I guess that doesn't explain Atsushi receiving A REAL PHONE CALL to go to the Agency at what, 5am in the morning? Who stays up for that long? Watching the World Cup games? *dabs* But yeah, the point that it's ghosts is already unsettling even if you don't believe in them, but hey, if they are happy in the tea and snack and are able to move on, so can I. *laughs* Next, the camping trip. I like how they blamed Francis for buying all the stuff on the cheap and why can't be buy cheap stuff that is useful like gold- So yeah Kunikida just took the opportunity to use all the inventory to go camping!! But why just you and Atsushi? Where is like, Ranpo-san or something? *laughs* (I would like to mention the chick whom Natsukawa Shiina voiced but I already forgot their name LMAO) But yeah, they be like me going on vacations dude, only remembering there's work to be done so can't really take a break? That's just my excuse even if I do nothing- And last but not least (lol), it's the button. But not just any button. Not even the button in the main series season 5 where they use to blow up the planet. This is THE button. The button of hypothetical truth set by Dazai to trick Atsushi into pressing it. *laughs* I'm sure the joke is obvious but also Dazai is likely making this button trigger a prank on Kunikida or something, so what else is new. They just made an excuse for Kunikida to record those lines he himself won't approve. *giggles* All in all, simple but great episode, I kinda miss the drama and the jokes just not so much on the concept of it, but the animation is stellar and I can laugh to it, so yeah why not, we need to fund season 6 and this is part of that. *dabs*

P.S. "You're too young to abandon society and live in a tent out in the wilderness!" Okay, then tell me when is he going to learn how to pitch a tent? *dabs* Also if anyone wants to abandon society it's not camping it's removing that bio-metric tracking device and- Oh that's "Fractale". *laughs*

We REALLY need to stop showing Taira just being alone, I'm getting PTSD from my childhood already. *laughs* In this new episode where if you see people taking photos of their lunch means they are sending it to their partner so stop asking already Taira lol (#Seihantai14), at least the difference between me and Taira is that I don't dig myself into the trenches and put dynamite in just so I can blow myself up. Figuratively, there's only love and no violence here. *giggles* So yeah, just settling the front part and I like how ironically it still involved Azuma but that's just Taira thinking of her which should get Suzuki screaming in the background right about now lol same, but Taira is totally correct in thinking that even if you look great, *ahem* there are girls out there who will not take you for who you are, no matter how small it is. That's why people break-up. Or divorce- Not going to mention that these are high schoolers lol, but yeah, and not like Taira did message that one girl all the time to find out more about her too, so it's no wonder their first date became the worst thing... for the girl. Taira probably moved on, but that hasn't stopped him thinking. Since then he has grown up, just not in the guts department it still takes a lot to love someone considering how I've never date someone before and he did. *silence* I'm just going to shut my cake hole and move on LMAO GET IT BECAUSE CHRISTMAS CAKE- He bought it to share it with his bros by the way, I would NOT even do that. Ever. *laughs* Moving on for real, I guess we can talk about Suzuki for a bit. but I did also cover this along with Taira, and Tani-kun is infinitely cooler just being nonchalant to most things besides the one girl haha I gotcha bro, so you know, she wins. *giggles* Last but not least, OF COURSE we have to talk about Yamada and Nishi-chan dating. Wait, you didn't know they were dating? It's so obvious, dude!! We got the boy and girl meeting up, we got the cheeky spin-around even though it's not a hug (lmao), and we got the library- Dammit!! *laughs* I would argue that Yamada probably considered something else than homework when thinking of going out with Nishi-chan, but also he did want to finish his homework more than anything else, so why not let Nishi be your new family member to see you finish your- I know right, he dug this hole out of a blessing I can't even. *giggles* But he also did hint that he wasn't here for English homework. *laughs* I don't know bro, you need to have at least some planning mind before you shoot out stuff like this unprotected. *laughs* (Yes I meant s*x-) At least he knew this isn't a good time to talk about love. Maybe plan it for next year, yes? Christmas would've been a good occasion but you didn't save a day to confess to your girl on the Eve unlike whatever Suzuki and Tani did that I don't want to know about. *ugh* Haha all in all... compared to the other episodes so far? This is quite a nothingburger. *laughs* BUT!!! This is good development. *giggles* Yamada somehow knows what he is doing right about now, and boy the day we get to see him confess to Nishi will be so sweet, Taira wishes he died already. *laughs* Tani-kun knowing a lot more of how Suzuki works (lol) is also important to their relationship, up to the point where he is being more social now though the inclination towards Suzuki is higher. *giggles* And then Taira can just go f**k himself. *laughs* Hey I'll join you, brother, but not because I'm gay. *laughs* Looks like we might on to the next big event soon if Christmas and New Year's are coming and passing real quick, but there's nothing to hurry; Yamada hasn't confessed his love to Nishi yet. *laughs*

P.S. "Tani-kun comes to mind for every little thing. Have I gone crazy?" Yeah, that's called being a gyaru in love. *dabs* "You're asking that now? You've been crazy for years." SATOU NO PLEASE STOP ONE-UPPING MY JOKES *laughs*

P.P.S. "I sent him the weirdest sticker and he suddenly stopped replying. Did I get overconfident?" And... Nishi-chan's first love life is over. *laughs* (You wished it was this easy to get out of, girl)

[GIF FEVER!!! I felt in the mood to do so, so you're welcome *wink*]

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

Yeah, this is quite a lot and it's those I added in to my music library, so let's go through them.

All this is mostly thanks to Apple Music's recommendations or not really I had to search for some of these myself since personal recommendations suck generic ones are better *dabs* and Lavt wasn't a surprise I ended up getting hooked to that for a while and even now to be fair, only to actually giving T-Shirt Ya-san the album review 2 years later since they sung the ending theme song for "Murai no Koi" if you remembered that masterpiece (lol) and turns out not bad for their 10th anniversary album if you don't mind the occasional rapping and weird yet too real to life lyrics, and I think the title song about being "Algorithm's Dog" (lol) and specifically the music video featuring idol Nagahima Hina-chan *giggles* and I think the previous time I died was to MaiMai's birthday goods lineup. *laughs* Her face is kinda square so I'm going to keep my impression of her within the goofy video, if you guys don't mind. *dabs* ZETTRIO is definitely just a guilt trip, and I did intend to give more than one track but uh, well, the music needs to stick first. *shrugs*

Maybe I update Anime theme songs in another paragraph lol it's obligatory at this point, Shinnosuke is great and I don't think I will give the opening theme song for "Seihantai" at this rate lol. I'm giving Hata Motohiro regardless if I give "KakeKoi" just because it's considered rare to write a normal and emotional song these days I can't even. *shrugs*

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

Oh if you have not noticed, I'll always post music videos above their digital release even if they appear on the same week just because you babies can't deal with music streaming services and just LISTENING to f**king songs- *laughs*

Also most of these guys will fail the test that is my tastes (lmao) just because and I will explain them all, Kroi is really meh these few years and I continue to be disappointed with their lack of credited songs which *ugh* I miss a lot to be frank. plenty (the band) didn't make this better as getting used to their quirky style will take time, but I'm still glad they returned, I'm just getting PTSD from bands returning not living up to my new standards and I wish they never came back. *silence* Haha moving on, ClariS also is just not great so I'll be leaving them alone for now, we were doing so well last season. *giggles* Still, I've got hope for the other music videos including TrySail which actually got me but barely, so I will see if we need to give our very first Klassic Note Review this year. *laughs*

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

I have A LOT MORE of Anime theme songs to go through which will exclude "IbiKona" for now so "Yomi no Tsugai" first for starters I'm getting used to those songs ngl, and there's a lot more I found on the backlog which means they released this year which includes Teshima Aoi and otoha-san, but even then I will remember to give the newest songs first, so yeah don't worry, I'll remember to listen to Rieri's new EP when it comes out. I don't remember it being impressive, but I have a clean palate so I'll talk in with open ears again. *giggles*

If you need another good thing this week, you can actually watch this on AbemaTV with a VPN connection (lol not gonna tell you how to do it just go learn it yourself) or wait till next week where I will talk about it again, I watched Hasegawa Kasumi's special wedding program (it's just a one-off) featuring the most prominent feature: Her glasses- Yeah she has a lovely voice too and I can *blessed* to her any time of the day, but also, the photobook review is for next week. *giggles* Well, that's assuming if it appears, fingers crossed, people. Even pissing the fictional stepsister now depends on how prompt the international shipping can be considering the f**king prices now and how is Tenso still better even if split out with Buyee? *laughs* In view of this, I miiiiight do another Melonbooks run on Buyee just because I want to see it appear so I can plan my work leave accordingly when it drops in September. For now? I don't even know if I can get all the stuff I bid/bought to my room by the end of the month. *silence* Well I've done my best in purchasing them, so now it's up to the gears of proxy services to make sure I get it. *prays* Yeah see you guys next week then, and until next time... Keep praying, people!! *laughs*

P.S. I made an "ellipse body calculator" using available image sources to explain to ma bro about bra sizes in Japan compared to America just because, it's on my GitHub Pages site which ironically, searching back at the older blog posts, still works! So yeah, go find out if my calculations are accurate if you are a woman. If you do, don't DM me on social on the results.

Unrelated, Moeshi as seen from her latest photobook, is likely B cup. *laughs*
