Aha... I haven't updated for a while - well, I thought I'd do it when I'd sorted out a new layout, but then despite
bishwop being an AMAZING help ♥ ::chu:: ♥ I haven't actually tried to edit it yet... I think I've developed a phobia about it.
でも、絶対この週末、するぜ! するかも。。。
やっぱりしないよね。。。
しょうがねぇだろう。。。怠け者だからね。。。::is shot::
Also, I've been distracted by schoolwork GARO and PRINCESS PRINCESS D~~~~!!!!
i have acually done no work so far. apart from reading two and a half chapters of harry potter in japanese - which is way easier than my a-level literature ::headdesk:: and i go back to school for half of tomorrow, then properly on thursday. DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD o(>.<)o
GARO~~~~!!!
I'm really enjoying this series at the moment~! o(^0^)o I've only watched until episode 17 but it's really good~! Mainly because it stars Tenimyu's own Ibu Shinji Konishi-sama~~~!
(photo courtesy of
fumin-sama's lovely scans~! ♥~! )
And then, to make it even better, his rival Makai knight is Yuujirou from Princess Princess D Fujita Rei~~~! ☆ Who has the best 'I am teasing you' smile~! ♥
It's nice seeing Konishi wearing leather all the time. I don't watch this series in order to perve on them. Really I don't.
And then PRINCESS PRINCESS D~!
At first I didn't like this series, because it's not as good as the anime. But no one can not like a series where KenKen wears a dress, Saitou ::dies of love:: is a セクシーすぎる生徒会会長, and Adachi also features.
gah~~~~ so pretty~~~~ ♥
boy, must they have gotten through a lot of lip-gloss making this
I also like that the plot is different. Basically our regular 'princesses' are under attack from the 黒姫 ('black princesses') Mikoto doesn't have a girlfriend~! And so he flirts with the leader of the Kurohime, Hanazono.
dahaha XDXDXD yuujirou seems to be enjoying himself. エッチ~!
And there are also scenes like this:
花園音也:「あのさ、重いんだけど」 XDXDXD
And inside Hanazono’s imaginary-song-thing:
美琴:「何だ、ソレ!」 XP
So now, by episode 5, I'm loving it~!
I'm also thinking maybe I should start watching Kamen Rider Kabuto because it has Katou Kazuki in it... Hmm...

Anyway, on Saturday night
pika__pika and I had our special birthday meal at TGI Friday's in Guildford - very expensive: I had two cocktails at £4.45 each, and they didn't even get me tipsy - but fun o(^o^)o
I got a load of great & belated birthday presents:
Notebooks from Sarah and Lyss, a pretty bead necklace from
scrat_squirrel, Scary Movie 4 from
cocacola_2020, Jarhead from the mighty Kim, travel guides to Japan from my lover
_windigo_, some punky skull-themed wristbands from Steph, and a photo frame with the picture of The Gang from Christmas last year from Carina.
And from my joint-birthday-girl
pika__pika I got a beautiful pair of earrings, an evening purse and a cute Hello Kitty plush. As well as this TWINCEST!card she drew:
The Gang o(T^T)o I miss them already~~~ i'm the one at the front swearing, btw ^^
We were made to stand up to be sung to and all that. Very embarassing o(>____<)o
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also, I'm currently reading through the doujinshi
tefhel brought back from Japan and gave me for my birthday. ♥ <--- この仲間、大好きだよ
Doujinshi:
Title: 目覚めの鳥
Circle: ?
Pairing: Jirou/Atobe + Kabaji
Title: Off-Black
Doujinshi-ka: Satsuki Utsubushi
Pairing: Kamio/Atobe
Title: 恋のスカッドミサイル ~Love Scud~
Circle: FLEX-ABLE
Pairing: Ootori/Shishido
& just because they cracked me up:
Atobe: Shishido... Behind you... XDXDXD
This one's really sweet o(^o^)o about Ootori and his poor ball control... Ahaha XD
Title: ラブ・テロリスト ~ Love Terrorist
Doujinshi-ka: Amu Nanaka & Shihan Ichinomiya
Pairing: Oshitari/Atobe
It's really just porn, basically d(^o^)b
Title: Hyotei Magazine
Circle: Complexion
Pairing: Ootori/Shishido, Oshitari/Atobe
I actually love this doujinshi ♥ It contains several stories, including a cute one where Ootori does Shishido's hair and a few gag strips about Ootori's hair fetish XD, then a story which was so sweet it almost gave me brain damage, called この胸に十字架を抱いて. It focuses around Ootori's cross, and what it means to him:
Shishido: Chou… tarou…
Ootori: This… Does it really trouble you that much?
Shishido: Choutarou… Wh-What are you saying… It's not that…
Ootori: If Shishido-san hates it, I’ll throw it away.
Shishido: WH- CHOUTAROU!? Stop…
Shishido: You-! That's an important object-!! Why did you…
Ootori: To me… There is nothing more important than Shishido-san.
Shishido: But that was a memento of your grandfather…
Ootori: If I can ease Shishido-san's mind by doing such a thing, then I would throw away such an object hundreds of times.
Shishido: Idiot…
Ootori: I love you… I love you… I love…
Ootori: I love you…
(Because I have all of you in my possession, I don't need anything else. To the extent that it wouldn't matter if I threw away everything else…)
Apologies for my rather awkward translation o(>_____<)o 疲れたんだよ~! Maybe someday I'll scanlate the whole thing. For now, I don't want to wreck my book.
And then there's a final Oshitari/Atobe pr0n story (^o^)
Novels:
Title: Evergreen
Circle: Bambina 66
Pairing: Ootori/Shishido
I haven't finished reading this yet o(>.<)o but so far, it's quite angsty… Basically Shishido and Ootori are already a couple, but they have to face each other in the Ranking-Sen and Shishido's worried about getting beaten…
Title: そしてこいがはしりだす
Circle: End-If
Pairing: Ootori/Shishido
Title: 花梨
Circle: ?
Pairing: Ootori/Shishido
This one's half novel, half sketchy-manga. but i haven't read it yet (>___<)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ah yes... And also, earlier that day, I got a text from Lloyd guy i met at the reading festival 'cos he let me sit on his shoulders to see the stage better, and who i went out with once inviting me to a Steve Reich minimalist concert in October... It cheered me up and I'm going, but the problem is, he's just broken up with his girlfriend, I comforted him about it, and now he insists on paying for me... But he's a great guy and totally fun to be with, so I guess I'll just assume he's being polite and doesn't mean anything else. Right.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Anyways today,
pika__pika and myself went into LONDON oh god, how i have missed it o(T^T)o
We went to Forbidden Planet in Tottenham Court and I got Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle 10, Banana Fish 6 & X/1999 11, but there was TERRIBLE NEWS - apparently Digital Manga is having licensing problems in the UK, therefore, there's pretty much NO YAOI MANGA AROUND~~~!!!
大変ですわ~~~~~~!!!
But, we made up for it by going to Picadilly to the Japan Centre, where she got an issue of Zero Sum, and I picked up August and September's BExBOY magazine oh noes, teh pr0n
Then it was to Camden, which, for all of you who don't know, is the goth/punk/weirdo district of London, and is the place where I buy most of my clothes. So.
While there I got a skirt and a Dennis the Menace style jumper/hoodie.
And when I got home, my birthday present from my collective relatives was waiting for me - volumes 3 - 10 of the Prince of Tennis manga~~~!
(this makes up for one of my sets of grandparents completely forgetting my birthday o(>.<)o )
So I'm happy now o(^o^)o
But tomorrow I have to go into school early to help the new Year 7s adjust or something... God knows >:3 Gah. I hate 11 year olds. Especially the lot at our school.
Although I am actually looking forward to going back to school again. It's my last year there~! Which feels very odd. But yay for Japanese lessons again~! XD
Hope everyone else is happy~!
and apologies... this somehow turned into a massively long post o(>.<)o ごめんね、皆さん~!
Gakuto says バイバイ~!
