   Back with a hello :p, now a High School Grad! ^__^

Heya buddies! :p Oh sorry I worried you Shishou! I was just procrastinating...so I didn’t update. First I was busy (you know as we all are with the end of school, exams, and grad) then…lazy. ^^” I did a bit of visiting though…but not enough. Gomen. I’ll try harder soon. ^______^ I’ve missed you all. So much has happened in the past month. Well, I warn you! This will be a VERY long post. Don’t complain later… First of all, I graduated. Don’t really want to go into the grad party details. Yey for me. Now I’m just sitting around waiting for something to happen :p. Doing chores, using the computer and net, watching anime and reading manga—that’s pretty much all I’m doing. Mangas are fun! XD Besides that…life’s been…I don’t know. Seems like the world is just covered in some black haze. Let’s use porcelain as an example. I’m finding cracks on all the surfaces I thought were shiny and I’m finding the tar that got on some of the porcelain ornaments hard to remove…*sigh* But I’ll be alright. ^______^ My current motto: “Together, we can make the world a better place”. Inspired by HanTsuki. =^________________________________________^= I guess I will give a list of some of the anime I’ve been seeing, manga I’ve been reading, and songs I’ve been downloading :p. ANIME Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora (which means ‘Looking up at the Half Moon’), a.k.a. HanTsuki: Has 6 episodes. This is by far one of the greatest anime I have ever seen. I can cry just thinking about it. I felt my eyes water a bit after the first episode—blame that ending song + screenshots that follow! Just thinking about it makes me all sad. And thinking about the songs just makes my stomach knot. Hearing it makes it worse. I don’t know why it has this big of an effect on me…*sniff*. It’s an inspirational and very touching series. If you haven’t seen it, SEE IT TODAY. It’s simple yet amazing. A slice of life. *Sigh* Sometimes we can be so selfish…Go Yuuichi X Rika!! ♥ My current favourite couple in my current favourite anime. Samurai Champloo: I’m on the 6th episode. It’s…weird. I thought it was going to be funny but I didn’t laugh much. I’m not even that fond of the openings and endings. Perhaps it’s not for me. But since I have a lot of episodes of this anime, I might as well watch it ^^”. Ghost Hunt (1 episode…almost 1 episode anyway): It was interesting. I was upset when it stopped somewhere in the middle!! Grr…Blame my DSL -_-”. Hayate no Gotoku (1 episode): Heh. It was a cute anime. Will see more. Supposed to be funny ^^. Full Moon Wo Sagashite (1 episode…or nearly 1 episode): I love the opening song! ^_~ It’s so cute! And the dance in the opening too. Unfortunately, it froze midway. I’m planning on downloading it again. Cute. The Melancholy of Haruhi Sumizuya (1 episode): Who’d let me not see it? I had to download it. Will see it all sometime. Jigoku Shoujo (“Hell Girl”): I’ve been watching it lately, more like my steady anime right now. Even though it’s repetitive, I’m still watching it :p. Nice animation and I like the opening song. Seto no Hanayome (1 episode): From the reviews it got on Anime-Eden, I thought “Why not?” and so I downloaded it. It’s supposed to be a very funny romantic comedy. It’s funny and cute ^^. And the animation’s nice. Will download more. Gintama (1 episode): Weirdest anime I have downloaded in the past month. Aliens, spaceships, and samurais?! And a guy that reads Shounen Jump? I don’t know how it’ll all work together but the main character does somehow resemble Bleach’s Ichigo so…who knows? But I’m in no rush to see it even though I hear it’s got an atypical hero and lots of comedy…heh. Also done little catching up on FMA, Bleach, Death Note, Naruto, and Inuyasha. Death Note rocks! ^__^ So cool. And FMA just leaves my mouth gaping. And I did visit Wija-chan last week. I made her show me the Hare Hare Yukai dance. She’s pretty good. ^^ But she didn’t do it too enthusiastically since I was nagging her about it. Anyways…We watched Grave of The Fireflies by Studio Ghibli. Tragic movie. Slice of life. World War II, setting Japan. MANGA NANA: My second manga! I read the first prologue—I liked it. Nothing too dirty. Then I got to the second prologue—only the second!—then I had to stop -_-. I liked the 1st prologue…I am a bit similar to Nana in some ways and she is funny. ^^ Oh well…Wija-chan did warn me it was josei (for the older female audience). Aoi Yori Aoshi: I’ve always wanted to see the anime. It sounded and looked cute. I didn’t know it was ecchi! (Thanks Wija-chan for letting me know) >.< Good thing I went with the manga first. It’s cute, especially Aoi. She’s so cute!! XD So far only a few “terrible” scenes. If it gets too er…dirty I’ll stop reading it all together. I think I’m on the 7th chapter. Pretear: I’ve always wanted to watch its 13-episode anime. Pretty animation. I like it! ANIME OSTs & other JAP-SONGS Raven by Do As Infinity: Catchy ^^ and I am a fan of Van’s voice anyway. I Love U, 1st opening of Full Moon Wo Sagashite by THE SCANTY: Very cute ^^and catchy. Hayate no Gotoku, 1st opening of Hayate no Gotoku by Kotoko: I like it ^^. Cute too. Eternal Snow by Changin’ My Life: A FMWSagashite ending. Pretty lyrics, pretty song. Mysterious Eyes by Garnet Crow, one of the openings of Detective Conan: Lovely ^^. Thanks Raina-chan! Shinkirou, an ending to the anime Black Blood brothers by Loveholic: I loved it from the first time I heard it. Very pretty! And it’s Korean too. It was fun learning the lyrics, which seemed more difficult than the Japanese. Thanks Wija-chan! Hoshi Akari, 1st ending of Busou Renkin by Jyukai: Pretty. A must-have ^^. Makka na Chikai, 1st opening of Busou Renkin by Yoshiki Fukuyama: Cool, upbeat, and catchy ^^. Ayumi Hamasaki’s JEWEL: I like it. ^^ BoA’s DUVET, opening of Serial Experiments Lain: I didn’t know it was the opening of SEL until I heard it and I recognized it! –Note: I haven’t seen SEL, just saw the opening ^^”. Interesting. I like it. Ichirin no Hana by High & Mighty Colour: Cool ^^! I found out later that it’s a Bleach opening …lol. And the lyrics are wonderful. EMOTION by Tanaka Rie: ^_^ upbeat and nice ^_^ Realize by Tanaka Rie: Catchy, lovely. Like it! ^_^ Ningyo Hime from Chobits by Tanaka Rie: Pretty enough ^^”. D-technolife by UVerworld: A Bleach opening, 2nd I think. I love it! Very catchy and awesome singing, tune, everything. ^______^ Go UVerworld! Sakasama no Chou by SNOW: Opening of Jigoku Shoujo. Pretty. I like it! SNOW has a nice voice! Raison D’Etre by Nightmare: I’m currently a HUGE fan of the lead singer I also downloaded Hare Hare Yukai, Kanashimi no Yasashisa ni, and Rolling Star. All are upbeat and great. Go Kanashimi! It really grew on me. Utada, Ayumi, and BoA are very popular and so I thought I’d download some of their most popular songs. They’re okay. I think I’m more a fan of the songs than of the singers ^^”. If I like a song, I like it. The group matters…but maybe not much. Or maybe it’s just these three. I do like JEWEL by Ayumi, Every Heart and Duvet and Amazing Kiss by BoA, but none so far by Utada. Maybe her songs aren’t to my taste. I did try Simple and Clean as well as Final Distance. If you have any suggestions or comments, let me know! I want to know why she’s so popular ^^. But she is pretty ^____^. Almost all of them are, our pretty little Japanese shoujos! I got a lot of photos of (mostly Japanese) singers from www.last.fm. It’s a neat site! ^^ Oh remember how in one of my posts from back God-knows-when I talked about Ion Fortuna’s seiyuu? Well, I never did mention her name! (Thanks Wija-chan for pointing it out -_-“) so I might as well do so now. Her name is Junko Minagawa. There. Ah, and since I’m SO into HanTsuki right now, I wanted to change my site to a HanTsuki theme. Any helpers? Oh and Esther really isn’t my favourite character in Trinity Blood or something. And Lordsesshomaru I didn’t like the name Esther. But she is pretty so I wanted to use her for a theme. Oh and she is pretty cute with Ion-kun! XD Please welcome my friends Zetsumei Kage and Anime snow girl to the site! Oh and as for Anime snow girl, it’s her first time here and she needs all the help she can get. She’s an anime fan, although she is still a novice ^^’. She’s a sweet girl anyhow. So…sign her guestbook and say hello if ya can! Arigatou. Just two simple questions! QUESTION 1: Did you hear Ichibyo no Refrain, 1st ending of Getbackers, by Otoha? Did you download it? Do you love it? Well, for those of you who haven’t, what can we, those who have, Tell them? QUESTION 2: Do you think I should change my Esther theme? Oh and thank you for your visit. Although I feel selfish and bad for not visiting many of you…oh and a big thanks for 530+ hits, 105 guestbook signatures, and for the 16 comments on my previous post. ^_______________^ *Bear Hug* …Oh and a belated CONGRATS to ABlackPerson for being the 100th guestbook signer! XD ~Lady FJ~
