Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro - 21

Published by Hinano under Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro

Umm what? Can someone remind me if this was an old chapter in the manga? I have a feeling I remember some sort of an arc about someone who kept stealing faces, but I can’t recall if there was a kyuubi. Either way, it must have happened early on before the Denshi Drug HAL incident was resolved so if this really WAS in the manga what the fuck are the writers thinking putting this in AFTERwards? :mad: The arc that I thought this was gonna be was with that erojiji and the little girl - because the guy in it sorta looks like the guy in that arc. I guess I was wrong. Also how come Yako’s school uniform is the only pink one while everyone else’s is the manga color? :???:

I think the biggest WTF moment for me was at the end when Sasazuka said that Yako’s “father incident” had some “new light shed on it” and it involved her mother who’s in another country. WTF?!? I’m afraid to even ask where they’re going with this b/s considering Yako’s dad incident got resolved after like the first 4 chapters :mad: On a happier note, I’m reading the weekly shounen jump scans (along with Naruto) so even when the anime ends, I’ll keep covering the manga (but not on a weekly basis. Only when something worth mentioning comes up.)

Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore de - 08

Published by Hinano under KimiAru

I’m happy yet sad at the same time.

Haha I dunno part of me liked the Ren x Ageha thing, but I felt bad for her other butler (Kujurou or whatever his name was) so I’ll settle on her getting with him - rather than Ren. Also I loled at everyone trying to make Ren lose. You cheating bastard, that’s what you get! (Although since there’s like multiple women in that house it’s not saying much. :twisted: ) Ageha finally left this episode but claims she won’t give up lol. I hope she does, I don’t wanna see her again. Also when are we getting some plot? Is this show gonna end at 13 eps? Isn’t it about time they throw in a last minute plot thing to wrap up the series? :eek:

Persona -Trinity Soul- 08

Published by Hinano under Persona

Wow I really liked this episode. Maybe because it had jokes about love confessions and about girls grabbing guys (and vice versa XD) in the dark because they’re scared of ghosts. I never expected this out of persona but that just makes this show that much more awesome. :mrgreen: Also the plot thickens as Takurou admits having a crush on Megumi and then we got a little blushing and grabbing between Kanaru and Shin. (I never thought of pairing them but hey I’m down with that!) It gets worse because Tachibana is actually Kanaru’s childhood friend but she’s evil! Oh noes! D: Also Jun shows off his super cool sensitive powers this week - he’s like the hero of this whole anime. Shin is just always like “omg wtf is going on someone save me *poops out his Persona*” XD;

Man I love this show. But nobody loves it with me. Everyone only cares when I hate a show. :sad:

KimiKiss: The Ice Queen Melts - 20

Published by Hinano under KimiKiss: Pure Rouge

Noo!! I mean…yes? Hell I don’t know anymore.

Haha whoaa what happened here. Aside from the Kai scene where I was cursing at Mao (literally) and going “poor Kai, kick that whore to the curb” this week definitely focused on Kazuki the stalker. I guess stalking pays off after all, except when you stand in front of someone’s house with a boombox playing “In Your Eyes”. Continue Reading »

I take back what I said about Ouran.

Published by Hinano under Manga, Ouran Koukou Host Club

Remember when I said I was disappointed with the manga? I take it all back. It’s as if Hatori-sensei read my blog and is finally moving the slow meat grinder that is Tamaki and Haruhi’s relationship. :mrgreen: With that in mind, I’m incredibly pumped and I will continue buying the tankobons even though I’ve read some Lala scanlations online. I support TamaHaru! Please keep it up sensei! XD

In celebration I did another Kaitemita. :cool:

Also there are unfortunate news for me - but SAI apparently is going commercial in the next couple days. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to buy it outside Japan (even though it’s just a serial number) and $50 for a not really complete program (it’s missing a lot of tools which supposedly will be added in the commercial version but who knows.) Oh well :cry:

Manga Review: Modotte! Mamotte! Lollipop Vol. 5

Published by Hinano under Mamotte! Lollipop, Manga

So it turns out that this manga will be 6 volumes - with the final volume being released on April 28th. The volume started out a bit cheesy but it was still pretty good. They went to the magic world to meet Zero’s family and his grandma who wanted him to get married and take over the house. Nina was all for it of course but Zero didn’t exactly want to hear the bells just yet. Nina also attempted to learn how to use magic but failed miserably. Also ever since THAT incident, I’m starting to see Ichi as a 3rd wheel. How sad. :twisted:

Most of the manga was pretty blah to me, at some points I had no idea what was going on and why they were doing it. It felt like another “page filler” in order to progress with the main purpose of this volume…which I have yet to figure out anyway. Oh well on to the scans.

The Bastardization of the Hamburger Man

Published by Hinano under Unsorted

When I think of Ronald McDonald what comes to mind are all those McDonalds Happy Meal commercials with Ronald and his big furry suit friends and a bunch of lolis and shotas begging him for toys and fries. In Japan, the McDonalds commercials refer to Happy Meals as “Happy Sets” and Ronald is referred to as “Donald”. (I guess it would be a pain for them to say ロナルド-ミクドナルド.) For some reason though, the Japanese Ronald says “RAN RAN RUUU” a lot and because of this it has turned into a meme on niconico.

You Tube Link

Recently NicoNico’s been going through the Caramell Dansen phase and needless to say Ronald (or should I say Donald?) was included in the insanity. The result produced an incredibly addictive song that can be used as a good exercise video, or in my case I really want it to be my cell phone ring tone. :lol: Continue Reading »
