Manga Review: Shugo Chara Vol. 6

Published by Hinano under Manga, Shugo Chara

I know you’ve all been impatiently waiting so here it is. But before I go into it I have to first talk trash about Kinokuniya and Japanese racism since it is relevant to me purchasing this book. As you guys know Shugo Chara has Special Edition volumes that come out along with every normal edition when a Shugo Chara volume is released. Kinokuniya only had 2 volume 6’s sitting out period, neither of which was the SE. I asked a lady working there if she could help me find a Special Edition or open up one of the drawers where they keep extra books. She told me “can you please wait” because she seemed in the middle of something. Ok that’s cool I just hung around looked at random How to Draw Manga books while I waited. I then saw her come back but rather than helping me, her attitude went from “Go away white person” to “Hi I’d love to help you find it” when she decide to help a random Japanese family who had come upstairs during the time I waited…and basically ignoring my existence. That’s great Kinokuniya. You market your sorry asses towards weeaboos, but when we come to spend money, you ignore us. Yea well you just lost about $6 extra from one of us, fags. And now let’s continue on to the manga review. :twisted: Continue Reading »

Weeaboo Cooking: Making Hotcakes

Published by Hinano under Unsorted

As you already know the Japanese “pancake” is referred to as “Hotto Ke-ki”. While we were at Mistuwa yesterday they had a sale on the “hotcake” mix so we decide to pick up a bag (mainly because we ran out of Bisquick.) I guess to be completely weeaboo you’d have to pick up the Morinaga hotcake syrup but we figured using Eggo syrup wasn’t gonna be much of a difference.
It’s really amusing how the back of the package has these cute instructions. I mean it makes it seem like the one making the pancakes is some 10 year old. The frying pan says “juu~~” and the pancake is saying “puupuu” in one of the instruction panels. The good thing though, if you can’t read Japanese, they prominently affixed an English instruction label for a swift and easy way to make your hotcakes. Continue Reading »

Proposal Daisakusen Special (aka Grand Finale!)

Published by Hinano under Proposal Daisakusen

Hey guys wordpress 2.5 is out! That will be updated tomorrow but more importantly, better late than never here is my Proposal Daisakusen special post. As we all had hoped, basically the special literally jumps right into where the last episode of the drama left off. The beginning of the special gives us flashbacks of what happened in case you missed it, but in case you did, you can always go back and read my posts :P Anyway the beginning is kinda silly because they waste time showing Rei and Ken on the beach as usual arguing with each other (about the fact that if Ken found her shoe that was lost in the ocean she’d marry him right then and there) but concluding their argument with a hug.

Persona -Trinity Soul- 13

Published by Hinano under Persona

Well I skipped last week due to disappointment that the Shin/Kanaru scene didn’t really have a continuation. However last week we basically discovered that “the one behind it all” is some half dead (or maybe zombie) old fart who’s trying to keep himself alive on personas but why those idiotic kids are following this old geezer is beyond me. I mean don’t they have better things to do than obey orders of some 200 year old pedophile? Also, it appears that random girl with feathers who’s been appearing in random places…is like his grand daughter (or maybe daughter?) or something. Continue Reading »

Kimi ga Aruji de Shitsuji ga Ore de - 13 (Finale)

Published by Hinano under KimiAru

Haha that was a great finale! Coulda done without the drool though :P. Should I safely say I’m happy that my “OTP came true” even though TECHNICALLY Ren is still everyone’s Butler. I’m also happy to see Shinra paying attention to Yume because Miyu is tsuntsun xD The Ageha thing was kinda annoying at the end…I honestly was like bah go away woman, you already made out with Ren for like 2 episodes. Oh and of course my favorite part was when Benice beat up Ren’s dad 20 times.

I was like that’s right you show him lmao. I was so disappointed when Shinra told Ren to stop I’m like NOOO please beat him up. So yea thanks Benice, you rocked from beginning to end. :twisted:

Ah well cute series, the kiss scene just moved it up to a 9 for me. Time to update my anime list!

Shugo Chara - 24

Published by Hinano under Shugo Chara

You know what’s worse than a filler episode? The flashback episode of DOOM! :shock: So yea basically the episode consisted of Amu deciding what she’ll draw for art class and had a flashback every 5 minutes. Needless to say I skipped through each flashback and it took me about 10 minutes to watch the entire episode. :P My favorite non-flashback scene was when Nikaido says he wants to keep Su and when Miki was jealous because Yoru was hanging out with Utau’s Shugo Chara (whose name I promptly forgot because she makes Utau look like a street whore when she transforms.) In the end she decides to do an image of her merry friends as pictured here.

Upcoming Attractions: Yay non filler episode! This time it’s the REAL Nadeshiko/Nagehiko episode where Amu finds out that he/she/it is moving away :lol:

I should have known that there is no use trying to talk sense to yaoi fangirls

Published by Hinano under Conventions, Rants & Raves

This is completely irrelevant to anything other than the fact that after Anime Boston more and more events are popping up that seem to be some sort of twisted hints that are telling me “Stop going to anime conventions.” I honestly think the only thing that continuously kept me coming back to cons is because I like to make Doujinshi, and cons are a good place to sell them (although it seems online sales are just as good if not better :roll: ) Continue Reading »
