Some questions I posted to /that/ student of mine a couple or so weeks back:

Me: Which do you prefer, summer or winter, and why?
T: I prefer summer because I like snow.
Me: Is that what happens in your country? Cos that'd explain why you're so whacked.
T: ...did I say summer? Maybe you hear me wrong. I meant winter. I prefer winter because I like snow.

Me: If you could choose how old you were, how old would you be and why?
T: I would be 20 because I want to go casino.
Me: The legal age to enter casinos here is 21, you know.
T: Oh. Then I choose to be 25 because I want to go to casino.
Me: Okay. Why 25?
T: Just in case, you know.
Me: ...
T: What?
Me: You know you kind of remind me of...me.
T: 8D Really?
Me: No. Let's move on.

Me: If you had a million dollars, how would you spend it?
T: *no hesitation* I'mma buy orange juice.
Me: ...ok. What else?
T: What do you mean what else?
Me: After getting your...orange juice, you'd have 999,998 dollars left, I think. What would you do with it?
T: ...ja, I'd buy another 499,999 bottles of orange juice.

-The End-

2) Kidousenshi Gundam 00 Season 2

Watching, but on an on-again-off-again basis

Yet to check out so verdict to come later:
Nodame Cantabile Paris Chapter

--Japan's answer to The Last Samurai.



The verdict? I like!

(Wow, it came out last year. Totally escaped my notice, this one.)

The lucky Japanese have their subtitles to fall back on. What do we English-dependant audience have? I'll tell you what we have. We have...cool sounding English that hugs the borders of Engrish (sometimes crossing it, even) that sounds kind of like English and yet nothing like it. Yay.

Nevertheless, this should be an amusing watch. It shall enter my to-watch list tomorrow night (along with Korea's Old Boy).

I've been rewatching Casshern Sins to see if I can come up with new observations. Can anybody tell me why every time I look at this scene, I get hungry?



I can't seem to puzzle it out. There must be something subliminal about it and it's making my tummy growl something awful...

Anybody remember Tomoya? Those of you who are thinking, "That stoner?", give yourselves a pat on your backs. Here's another one of my misadventures with him (oh, and his family name's Kawamura, btw):



V: It says here name two famous Americans.
T: Uh...Johnny...
V: (Whoa, Teh Depp?? Right off the bat? This kid knows his stuff!)
T: ...Kawamura.
V: ...ah. Okaaay...and how is he fam---now waaaaait a minute.
T: *sweating bullets* He come to Japan. Long, long time ago.
V: Who is he? Your imaginary great-great-great grandfather?
T: U-uh...*grin*
V: Rejected. Try again.
T: D8
V: Try. Again.
T: O.O;; Uh...Johnny...Johnny...Carrey...?
V: You mean Jim Carrey. And he's Canadian. Too bad. Try again.
T: O.O;;;; Uuuuh...
V: ...?
T: Ah, I know! Bush!
V: Impressive. You know who he is?
T: *nods nods*
V: Not bad.
T: Thanks!
V: So you know enough to name him huh?
T: He very very famous.
V: *nods* Aye, that he is. So what's his first name?
T: ............Johnny?

Once again, this is spoiler-free.

The show stayed true to its original intentions. For that, I'll commend the makers.

I still like Lelouch as much as when I first came across him and his antics ways, which is to say, quite a bit. Same goes for Suzaku.

All in all, a good show. The mess that's the middle, I think I'll just chalk it up to there being too much to tell and ultimately not enough episodes to tell it at the even pace it deserved. The makers worked well enough within the restrictions they were given.

It's pretty much to me a picture which story was clearly painted and was ultimately, aptly delivered to the audience, from start to finish. It's definitely not the...puzzling mystery...that was GSD in my books. And that's my final verdict.

Yoshi! Now to look forward to 00~~.

Aptly titled, "This is Light Yagami's World". An award-winning effort by nightwolf789.



It'd make for an awesome official trailer, don't you think?

...that delivers it right here *thumps chest*. Masterfully executed. Kore ijou saikou na mono ga nai gurai...

Damn, the makers of this anime know where to hit the hardest.

Oh! Btw, I got me a shiny new screen-capturin' enabled player so here I'm gonna showcase the fruits of my sparkly screen-capturin' endeavor. Ma, tekitouni yattayakedona...

No spoilers not guaranteed, also LQ cos I couldn't be bothered to get a HQ raw )

MmmmMmmMmmmm~~~ahHHHhhhh~~

Episode 2 of NY was exactly what I needed to start my week with. What a pleasant watch. I found myself smiling at the end of it and not knowing at which point I started doing it. I remember doing it when reading the manga as well. What a lovely piece of work. Midorikawa-sensei has created a masterpiece, as far as I'm concerned. And Brains Base did an excellent job adapting it into anime.

Man...can't wait for volume 6~~

The ED of Natsume Yuujinchou - the more I listen to it, the more swept away I am by it. It's simple yet enchanting. And really, really fitting for the series. The singing reminds me of Chitose Hajime's style, though. I heard this style of singing is the folk style of the Amami isles, somewhere around the southern tip of Japan, above Okinawa. Either way, I'm gonna share the experience with those of you who are interested.

And just cos I like it so much, I'm not going to put it under a cut. Sorry but please bear with me.




Natsu Yuuzora (The Summer Evening Sky)

On that day when the sky was ablaze
And rays of light were piercing through
When the evening rain had stopped
I noticed the scent of summer.
As the crowded lights shine
If I turned my ear to my thoughts
I could hear traces of my dear friends.

The fragrant summer evening sky 
Made the passing days so vivid
And so the laughter within me remained untouched
Just like my memory of that summer.
