LSK!!
Whoot, Kingstone is doing
pre-orders for the LSK merchandise I linked to in
this post. *preorders everything* Too bad they only ship within Taiwan for this, and darn, the first two items (posters) are already sold out, or else I would have gotten those instead since that'd cover all the different designs (there are six designs). Orders ship out on February 1. Looks like I'm going to have more merchandise lying about in my relatives' house, haha...
Shin Tenipuri episode 1
Oh gosh, I was grinning so hard through this. I've really missed watching Tenipuri weekly. This makes me all sorts of nostalgic (the bgmmmm!), and damn, the animation looks pretty and the characters look pretty too when the first anime was not even close to this quality. I so hope the quality continues with future episodes! The opening is weird and the ending is quite weird too. XD; I don't know if they'll grow on me. Haha, the characters were so posing all over the place.
This scene <- I'm reminded of Eyeshield. XD;
I bought Kanzenban season 2 volume 10 (features Sanada on the cover) but damn, my bookstore still doesn't have volume 9! (the one with Niou and Yagyuu on the cover). I've gone three times already, so I doubt they'll ever have it since they already have volume 10... *orders volume 9*
I also picked up Houkago v2! Yay, volume 2! I didn't know it was already out! (It is sooo much fun). I've only flipped through it, but one of the comics has Shiraishi visiting Seigaku and trying to solve a murder mystery (he claims Tezuka is dead after drinking Inui Juice). Yagyuu pops out of nowhere to join in as a detective. XDDD
Hikaru no Go
I like to play anime/dramas/drama CDs in the background while I make decks for
colors_tcg. (Something I've watched before is usually best, or else I end up not understanding everything). This time, after catching up with Rajipuri (oh gosh, they're going to be labeled as Shin Tennis no Oujisama on the Radio now! Shin Rajipuri?), my choice was Hikaru no Go! This series. Oh, this series. I'm reminded all over again why I like this series so much. (And now I cannot. stop. rewatching.). Sai has always been likable to me, but other characters have always interested me more. This time, I've paid Sai more attention. He is very endearing. (his flailing over modern things is so cute) ♥ Mitani is still my favorite though. That episode where Sai hears Mitani resign (but no one else does) still hits me hard. If I'm not careful, I'll probably end up watching the whole thing all over again... (I found it really funny when my family started going, "huh? phone!??" because my ringtone is from Hikaru no Go, so watching the series kept making all of us think my cell phone was going off. A lot.).
Recorder to Randoseru
LOL. I did not know this was only a 3 minute per episode show. I wonder if future episodes will all be so short. The episode did make me LOL though, and hearing Okiayu Ryoutarou play this role is even funnier.
