I was a little apprehensive when I first heard this song but it didn’t take long for the trippy video, vocarock beat and less than innocent lyrics to work their way into my head. So, this would be one of the rare cases where I enjoy and love a Vocaloid song before I see a chorus of it. Even so, I still wanted one. I searched on Nico Nico last night but, as it turns out, I could have just looked on youtube. I doubt the dedication of the nico to youtube uploaders.
Yen Press has announced that it has licensed the K-ON, Suzumiya Haruhi-chan, and Delicious Foods manga series along with the Bungaku Shoujo light novel series. Surprisingly, the light novel will release before each of the manga series in July. The first volume of each manga will appear in October and Novemeber (respectively).
I’m really pumped about Bungaku Shoujo. I read some of it already and thought it was great. I’m sure a lot of people are a little iffy (well if you didn’t care about the series to begin with, you probably weren’t upset) because of the whole Spice and Wolf fiasco but I have faith. My Spice and Wolf novel finally arrived from RightStuf and I am just too excited to start reading it. The dust jacket is great too. But I’m sure that the Spice and Wolf deal was a lesson for Yen Press too. What they did makes sense to me. I just talked to someone over at Tokyopop and they aren’t continuing a bunch of series because they weren’t profitable (GOSICK, luckily, will be returning this March). If the alternate cover would help the series sell then that is what everyone really wants right? The series to continue? Well I’d be more worried about releasing a series of 4komas. As far as I know they haven’t been doing that good over here. But we can hope that K-ON’s fanbase is bigger than Hidamari’s. (it is)
I still have lots of c77 albums piled up. Heck, I’m probably missing a bunch I’d enjoy too! Well, here’s this for now. Something Touhou will probably be on the way soon. Probably. Read more »
The show may be stupid (okay, maybe my new love of Durarara!! is blinding my judgment) but the music is, without a doubt, awesome. Well of course, it’s Yuki after all. The ED is great too so I await the full single of that but enjoy the OP for now.
I’ve wanted to know what this series was ever since I picked up my first Megami issue (which was, admittedly not too long ago). Furawaa is just too cute. So, I looked but never found the correct title. Until today. So I fished out the first OVA. I was thrilled. Infact, it was better than most professionally done anime I’ve seen in a long time! That’s right I said it. It can’t be unsaid. However, I really watched impulsively because the trailer always implied that on the beach… well. I can’t really ruin it for those that STILL haven’t seen it (by now it could be considered, in Comiket years, fairly old) but I cried. Why? Well I didn’t (slowpoke) quite understand the ending. But it’s pretty hard to misinterpret. Still, if you have seen the OVA and would like to please enlighten me and tell me that what I think happens to the sweet, sweet loli doesn’t happen, I’d love you forever.
Now I would like to tell everyone who reads this to go out and watch it. It’s only thirty minutes and is possibly one of the best animated doujin episode I’ve ever seen.
This is my favourite VOCALOID song right now. I absolutely love it. So I was thrilled when I found this. Personally, I don’t think it’s the best arrangement there could be but it’s pretty good. So, enjoy!
Of course I wanted to listen to this and give it a review as soon as I heard Alternative Ending (aka miko) had their own album. I mean, this is the first time miko has produced her own solo thing, right? (Well, probably not entirely, you know what I mean) and since I do practically everything else miko-related.
Also, this review is half-dedicated to MrThou, where ever you are~ Read more »
