MARRY ME TO~KI~YA~N <3

Ichinose Tokiya's character single ranked 6th on first day of release

Kind of disappointed at the result, I was hoping Tokiya would end up around 4th. Where are all the Japan fangirls? What are they doing? They should be buying shipments of Tokiya's CD.

He looks so angry >:O
His voice is as awesome as always.

Maybe I should pick it up again?

Hidden message behind Mikaze Ai's t-shirt design

Remember the UtaPri t-shirt series with Ai's design being a sequence of 1's and 0's in the shape of a love heart? Well someone deciphered the binary code and tweeted that the message is "はつこい" meaning 'first love'. 

 This is so sweet and beautiful, I'm going to sit in the corner and cry now.

I need one of these so I can watch anime at all times.

Uta no Prince sama Maji Love 2000% - Episode 10 [v.P]

New (arrogant) rivals. (Kind of) Plot ensues.

I felt that the art degraded in this ep.
Sudden realization: There's only 3 eps of UtaPri left. ;_;

Pumpkin's Palette: Cream to your coffee

For those that watched the latest Valvrave episode, #8, Haruto made a comment to L-Elf that
"I (Haruto) am the cream to your (L-Elf) coffee". What he meant was that although coffee is bitter, like L-Elf, by adding some cream on top the drink tastes much nicer, and that was Haruto's subtle way of agreeing to team up with L-Elf.
This was requested by Reverie Metherlance:

[Lyrics] third Wizard - Yuutaku II 「ゆーたくⅡ」

Basic info:

"Yuutaku II" 「ゆーたくⅡ」 is a unit comprised of two seiyuus, Ono Yuuki and Eguchi Takuya. Their two-sided debut single is called 『third Wizard/IN FUTURE!!』. The song "third Wizard" is used as the main theme song of the radio show "What will I do? What will I be!? Yuutaku II" 「どうする?どうなる!?ゆーたくⅡ」, and their second song "IN FUTURE!!" is used as a ending song of the anime Battle Spirits: Sword Eyes.

Comments:

I found these two songs to be very upbeat and catchy. It's full of fun and energy (especially in their PV, they act pretty childish/silly). 

You can download a sample of this single here. You can watch the PV here.

Description: Kanji lyrics and Romaji lyrics of Yuutaku II's song "third Wizard".

Note: English translation coming soon.

[Lyrics] The Misfit Go - OLDCODEX (Arata Kangatari ED)

Description: Kanji lyrics, Romaji lyrics and English translated lyrics of The Misfit Go by OLDCODEX, the ending song of Arata Kangatari.

Note: Partly transcribed by ear. The parts in brackets ( ) in the English translation are there to help the meaning flow smoother. Unfortunately I don't have CD booklet so I couldn't transcribe the lyrics by sight. I got the jap lyrics from here. Although I did double check the lyrics by ear. I also 'translated' the original English lyrics, just because I wanted to change the Japlish to actual English. Translation not 100% certain, I'm still learning the language.

Uta no Prince sama Maji Love 2000% - Episode 9 [v.P]

First anime to watch on my catch-up list is definitely UtaPri.

My Monday

As you read in the previous post, today's weather was very fine indeed.

I met up with megabubbletea to vamp up my new laptop, ie. wipe Windows 8 and install Linux Mint 15. We spent most of the morning doing just that, while most of the late afternoon was us trying to get Osu! working (without lagging) on our LM's. While we got the program to run, sadly, the game was too laggy to play.

pumpkin_so77 and megabubbletea 'shaggin' it out' on Cheese.

I spent most of tonight transferring my files (mainly music and pictures) back on to my laptop hard drive. Now I've finally got time to download and catch up on the four day's worth of anime and music that I missed out on (I think I've got about 6 hours worth of anime, and another 5 hours of music).

Other news: 

• Natsuki's character single reached 4th ranking on Friday on the Oricon charts.
• Twitter is dead again tonight, so I can't get my first hand anime news.
• I started playing Devil Survivor 2 (the game) on my DS. I'm not even past the first day (Sunday) and I've died over 8 times already. I'm not a very good gamer.
• If I'm not feeling lazy tomorrow I may do a compiled anime review; Don't worry, I'll definitely do a UtaPri review.
