I'm still alive, don't worry.

I wonder if I still have everyone on my friend list here? Its been ages since I've posted. Probably my latest post was this summer about around when Harikiri Megami was released.

So yeah.



Ummm...I guess all I can say is there's been some major changes with me.

First is....well... I got into a lot of fandoms. And by a lot I mean A WHOLE LOT.

I was pretty bored over the months before summer that I kind of just I don't know, started exploring and stuff. Mind you what started this off was a friend posting Takumi-kun 3 screencaps in Facebook and then I got curious (coz I never knew there was a sequel to it).

Watched the movie, got hooked with bbMao and in turn got hooked to...Tenimyu. Just about the most wonderful thing ever.

Smexy 17-20+ something year olds acting as a middle high school students doing super powered-up tennis and singing! And dancing! And all the adorable dorkiness that goes with Tenimyu.

After which, I got hooked into... Cocoa Otoko. Just about the band that I've learned to love more than anything else. Which was through Tenimyu of course.

Now I'll spare you my rambling of just how I fell in love with this band and just how much I love them. But anyways, these boys are just about the most amazing thing to happen to my post-teenage life. I've never had given my time, effort and MONEY as much as I did these boys. I just love them to bits even if I was only a mere fan of 5 months and that the fandom is still a bit small for it to have a lot of translators unlike JE is. I love the boys, I love their music, I love their friendship, I just love everything that is to do with Cocoa Otoko. They are amazing, talented, inspiring and crazy. But they're close-knit, like a family and all their life stories and their hard past is what made me love the boys so much that if not for them I just don't know how I've made my life upright.

And now since we're talking about CO. we have to tallk about Hosogai-san and Suzuki-san who is/was in Super Sentai. Now I didn't even know PR was just a copy of Super Sentai but let's forget about me being a tiny nooblet (an official new nickname for me because, let's face it, I am a fucking noob after being in JE only for 3 years) and focus on the awesomeness that is Super Sentai and tokusatsu in general. I love it. I love love love Super Sentai. Its just so......unf! Hot actors aside, I love how its not as childish as US makes their "copies" seem. I've officially watched 2 series, 2009's Shinkenger (most fave, thanks to Shogo) 2010's Goseiger (thanks to Mao) and the still-running Gokaiger (loving just about everyone in there, Basco included of course ;D). And now I'm even into Kamen Rider for all the "was-in-Tenimyu-or-in-a-BL-or-in-Super-Sentai-or-even-all-three actors" and just, these shows have such unique character development and plotline that it keeps you guessing and keeps you thinking.

Moving on, JE. I have to be honest, I got a bit irritated and did some reckless stuffs without a second thought the moment I heard of RyoPi leaving. I changed my whole layout as you can see, erased all my JE-related posts and even locked my fics (which btw wasn't really up to par in the first place).

I'm still trying to get into to terms with JE itself but for now maybe I'll take a break after my 3 years with the fandom. Although I do admit there is some hate in me but then, I'd like to ignore it and just think that JE was once a close friend but somehow lost touch along the way. Although, I'm not really denying myself of any of it but maybe just not now.

And well, my new beloved band chose to disband around March, I cried for days over it. Like literally. I was lucky (or not?) enough that I was sick when the news was out so I had to be off from college and then saw the news and bawled all day. I also cried the next day in college in front of my friends. It was so dramatic ¬_¬

Anyways, around that time we had to present a 5000 word report and then present the report in Powerpoints for 8 minutes. I did mine over Japanese pop culture while a friend of mine did hers on Kpop. She showed me the video she was going to use on her presentation and I saw the ever famous hip thrusts that is Bonamana by SuJu (which you know isn't really new to me anymore *coughsJEcoughs*). Well... watched a few MVs here and there and then, I also got hooked.

So from a one fandom only girl I've become a multi-fandom girl. From Tenimyu to its individual actors, to Cocoa Otoko, to following them individually and then tokusatsu and currently Suju.

Now people used to tell me (and this clearly pissed me off to no end) how I'm able to follow two bands (then it was NEWS and CO. they were talking about) at the same time. Well my life now is a living proof. Just look at all the things I follow and try to be up to date with? It is possible as long as you really, really want it.

And that is what has been happening with my life for the past year and will continue on.

I'm sure I have a lot of friends here who has multiple fandoms and I'm pretty sure some of your fandoms overlap with mine more than once.

And so with that, this has been an update from me! I hope I still have friends over here. *waves at everyone*
