* Ookiku Furikabutte
So, I finally got around to watching/reading the show.
Q: First impression?
OMG SO GAY.
Q: Second impression?
...NOPE, STILL GAY. :D
Q: Seriously >__>?
I like the story. It is typically shounen, and I LOL at Mihashi's antics. It's not common to have a sports protagonist who's a crybaby through-and- through. And Momokan is a Tsunade follower. LOL
Q: Other thoughts?
Am I the only one who was kind of creeped out by Abe? Especially the first few episodes? He was just so... possessive of Mihashi. His thoughts are just so... intense. OTL Which makes the AbeMihashi ship kind of unbreakable lol His line of 'I'll devote my next three years [read: high school time] to you!' kind of killed me. *A*
Q: So how was the watching experience?
I only managed to DL up to EP13 though ;_; The site I was using was suddenly... blocked by my school's internets. D:
Anyway, I spent my watching time going: 'iz it confession tiem nao? yes? yes? no not yet but that sounded pretty intense @.@'
Q: Favorite Characters?
Abe gives me yandere vibes, but he's still my favorite. ♥ I have a soft spot for strategists. And I like guys who are not afraid of their homolust thoughts! *gets shot*
Haruna is so cute though *w* He reminded me a lot of Ryoma (from PoT) Haruna gives me tsundere vibes instead \o/
Q: Favorite Seiyuus?
FUKUJUN. His Kansai-dialect is win ♥ No, it doesn't have to do anything with my bias for Lelouch.Srsly.
Q: Favorite Pairings?
AbeMihashi, obviously. And I like the Haruna->Abe too. HamadaIzumi. TajimaHanai. Others that I probably forgot orz
Q: Are you going to recommend this manga?
YES, 100000% YES. ♥
* KUROSHITSUJI TIME :D
Okay, so I'm a bit surprised about the new development in Kuroshitsuji. I'm usually 'mehhhh' when they include fillers-in-canon, but I love Kuroshitsuji to bits, so. I'll still watch it. It wasn't that bad, (compared to Naruto-and-Bleach fillers, that is) and it is rather expected that this will happen, so I'm just... 'okay!' with the whole thing ^__^;;
But then again, the 'wank' at the kuroshitsuji comm is a bit. Ugh. If others don't want to watch the anime anymore because of this new development, then fine. Those who still want to watch can just, I dunno, ignore it? What is it to them anyway >__>;;; Those are simply personal opinions. There's no point in trying to chastise them and saying 'you're not a true kuroshitsuji fan!!!111!' by not wanting to watch the anime anymore.
Everyone has different expectations for the anime, and not everyone wants a completely original take on the manga. Some just wants the manga to be animated, and don't care about the orig story being added. Some are okay with either way (like me). There's no point in trying to make distinctions in 'who's a true fan' when it comes to what form of the story you enjoy.

* KUROSHITSUJI PART 2 | Sebastian/Ciel fangirling
That said, I LOVED THE ENDING SONG. It was just one scene, all in all, and I feel that the songs are now turning for the darker, mysterious feel. (Aww, no more cute chibis haha). I kind of want to see a demon!Ciel. That way, Ciel and Sebastian will be together forever and ever OTL
And, lol at the lyrics change of Monochrome no Kiss. B-but, I kinda did an 'OMG YAY YAY YAY' at the scene they changed. (I had a hard time recognizing that it was a dead bird though LOL) The line "yasashikute atsukute hikyou na kisu de" [With a tender, passionate, yet cowardly kiss] had the best scene. SO APPROPRIATE YES/YES? Especially at the 'kiss' part?LOLOLOL Sebastian was touching Ciel's 'brand' on his back. And OMG creepy!Sebastian. I LOVE IT. So going to hellllll
* OTHER ANIMANGA :D
★ HETALIA - So the anime is cancelled. asfgjdgsgkfd;;;;; and it was the anime I was so looking forward to. D: But then again, never despair! Because apparently it's still going to be available for mobile phone streaming, and I just know that someone will upload it to the internets *__* I hope aarinfantasy (and/or the other fansubbers) will still sub it though *A* I am still in my Arthur Kirkland fangirling phase, btw. And I'm writing an overall US/UK fic [with UK/Japan, UK/France and UK/Canada] which is basically my 'fan theory of lulz' for US/UK. Or something like that *A*
Side note: I'm always happy to meet people I know from other fandoms also entering Hetalia fandom. It makes me feel that we become closer or something, by sharing yet another fandom ♥ Especially if we still share the same OTP. Hahaha.
Another side note: I kind of love the Hetalia fandom ♥ See this post here, here, and here. Also, check this out: voiceofhetalia :D
★ NARUTO - THE FROGS ARE AWESOME. LOL And I love how Sakura is also one of the people who sees Tsunade's real form. And my love for Naruto grew when I saw how he asked about Kakashi *A* And lolgiantrasengan. ^^ He's still far-away from Sasuke in my OTL in NARUTO, but, Uzumaki Naruto's improvement really made me happy :]
Also, I'm a bit late, but I just bought vol40 of the manga, and, OMG SUCH A HOT COVER. I'm now aspiring to buy vol41 and vol43 which were out of stock at the moment -.-
★ TORADORA! - Sumire's voice kind of scares me;;;;;;; vote for Taiga as the President of Terror! OTL And I think I said this before, but I'm surprisingly enjoying Toradora! :D It's nice :D
★ DARKER THAN BLACK - I watched it and finished it in less than a day. I love Hei! *__* He's so... interesting. While Rin/Kirsi reminds me of Anya from Geass;; and Amber reminds me of CC *__*
★ SOUL EATER - go go Maka/Crona! ♥ Their scenes always makes me go 'awwww', so. Yeah. ^__^ Stein/Medusa is hot in a very evil-creepy- disturbing way. XD;;; And the Kishin is a bit... weird. But ohwellllll~
★ GUNDAMUUUU - I loved the previous opening better, but I like Stereopony too, so, ♥ PLUS, THIS OP HAS THAT HOT TIERIA SCENE. I can't stop watching it. And Tieria's lack of boobs has been confirmed finally. And LOL Setsuna/Saji. And my new OT3 is Ribbons/Tieria/Setsuna/(add Ali to make the most mind-breaking OT4?) Ribbons = creepy stalker y/y? I'm also kind of rooting for a unwilling-villain!Tieria! And did Bring die? He's hot and he's (not-much-used) voice was also hot. Thankfully Divine (?) appeared and is also deliciously hot, so *__* And Tieria got to kick ass! ♥ And LOL He has another dual-gundam. And his 'I'm a human!' line! :D I love you Tieriaaaaa <3
★ EYESHIELD 21 - I adored this chapter ♥ And LOL'd at the results of the world cup, Hetalia-style The conversation between Hiruma-Agon-Kid was interesting, and Agon shaving his head was funny :3 I can't wait to see the color pages next chapter! *A*
★ BLEACH - I SHIP NNOITORA/NEL AND I HAVE NO REGRETS. That last scene in the anime made me ship it even harder OTL Did Nnoitora really die? But then again, it's Bleach and nobody really dies here eh;;;; I don't really like Nnoitora, but for the sake of my Nnoitora/Nel, I don't want him to die. ;__; And LOL spoiler ending much? BUT YAY TURN BACK THE PENDULUM ARC IS NEXT FUCK YEAH.
★ BLEACH MANGA - YES MORE ULQUIORRA ♥ Why do I ship Ulqui/Ichi so much? ;__; asfdgdfsg and Ulquiorra likes showing off his chest so much *shot* And yes, it likes shooting down my hope of Ulquiorra being the '1' ;___; And 'human' is the new popular word this week. Ichigo's comment about Ulquiorra being more human made my heart go dokidokidokiiiiiiii XD;;;; It's also good to see Orihime not completely detached from this battle ^^;
Side note: I just realized that I really like making theories as to what happens next in the shows/mangas I read/watch. Yeah, sometimes I get bummed if my predictions become right [because it means the show is becoming too predictable], but I also feel awesome if my predictions are correct *A* <-Yes, I am so retarded D:
That said...
★ REBORN! - If Hibari doesn't become a villain somewhere along the series, I'm going to be slightly sad. Then, his past and age can be revealed [my super-crack theory is that he's a guardian from the Primo's time who is designated to be the ONE TRUE GUARDIAN for the boss] and then Tsuna can be all, 'Hibari-saaaan come back to meee our side!' and 'redeem' Hibari and then 1827! LOL *gets shot* Again, it just might be due to my low expectations, but Reborn! always amuses me *A* And Fran...!!! *____* So hot. And Xanxus too! I ship Bel/Fran now too. OTL Yes, I'm easy;;;;
* 2009 ANIME
♣ I'll be surely following these: Hetalia! [no I won't remove this here], Chrome Shelled Regios, Kurokami The Animation, Maria†Holic [I haven't read the manga for this one. But they say it's pretty good...]
♣ These two are sequels, though I think I'll manage without watching the first season ^^: Zoku Natsume Yuujin-Chou, Shikabane Hime Kuro
♣ I'm not really that excited for these but I'll still follow them: Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo [if only for Lelouch!voice], RIDE BACK
♣ Haven't watched yet: VIPER’S CREED, Kemono no Souja Erin
♣ Dropped: White Album [it was boring and generic-ish and confusing;;;;]
* LOOKING FOR SONGS :D
♫ Arthur, you are my princess! I died from THE CUTENESS of this US/UK video ♥ If anyone has this song ["World is Mine" by Hatune Miku] please send me! :D
♫ EDIT: Much love and thanks to silhouette_68 for uploading the song! ♥
♫ Also, how about this song? "手つかずの世界" [Tetsukazu no sekai: untouched world] by 椿屋四重奏 [tsubakiyashijusou]. I fell in love with the song after I saw the Pirate!UK/Japan video.
♪ So yeah. If anyone has those two songs I'm looking for, I'll love you foreverrrrr <3
