In the Mood for Anime

It's been whaaaat.... a year since I last watched shoujo anime (as in giving my undivided attention to every episode) so I actually cringed when reminded how CHEERFUL and SQUEAKY seiyuu voices can be. x_x

My last series were mainly of the manly genre (Bleach, Samurai Deeper Kyo, Kyou Kara Maou) and had lacked the frilly pinkness of girlish themes. Oh wow. What a blast back to my fangirling over Sailormoon and other similar girl power era. *shudders*

Right now I'm watching Skip Beat and quite enjoying it :D

Altho I can't remember the manga much. Unfortunately I don't think I even finished reading it.

Mogami Kyoko is as cool as I expected her to be. And woooah Ren is devilishly handsome eventhough I felt he lost a bit of his wild streak here. But I'm only a quarter way through the series so let's hope for moar hotness!

A little off topic here: Bleach manga has finally revealed GinRan (that's Gin & Rangiku for the uninitiated) in the current arc! After a damn long year, the author is now only bringing them both to the main plotline thus I am ecstatic! Sheeeeesh but thanks.

Accursed Pairing

Ugh! Curse you, Kubo-sama! Curse you for that blasted last panel in Chapter 333!

The GinRan suspense angst is killing meh!!

Doramanganime

Dora-what??

Dorama + Manga + Anime = Doramanganime.

Yeah, I'm lame like that. Anyhoo, I've unofficially joined the fandom for Honey and Clover. As mentioned in my previous post, I really might buy the manga since scanlations are so hard to find. Well, not unless someone owns up to any good scangroup sites. No?

Here's a useless advice for anyone (like me) who love to nitpick on details: One way to enjoy a manga/anime-adapted Jdrama is by watching it first. Please avoid the anime or manga before you watch the dorama. No good comes out of complaining about how the storyline differ between each universe. Plus, you will be happier if and when you deepen you knowledge (through manga/anime) after the dorama ends.
At least, that's how I do it. Nyeh.

However, regardless of any advice I will always looove to nitpick on Taiwan-ised dramas. Heard there'll be a Mandarin version of H&C. Hah! *nitpicks*

While other Malaysians are voting...

Here I am lazing about at home:

Reading the latest Bleach chapter. The subplots are dwindling away and Aizen's returned to the foray! And hopefully, Gin.

Downloading Jrock albums. I really need to listen to something other than Acid Black Cherry before I get annoyed with myself xP I can't exactly hum anything other than his songs right now.

Watching Honey & Clover's latest subbed episode. Over and over again. Thank God  SARS uploads pretty fast recently. Kassy is so darned irressistible in this dorama I'm even contemplating on buying the manga (For the sake of the character he plays: Nomiya).

Watching movies online. Failing to find "The Detective" (Aaron Kwok's horror thriller) on the Net, I decide I should sit down for "The Boleyn Girl". Oh, perhaps eventually I'll finish watching the second and third "Pirates of the Carribean".

Ah~ Maybe I'll peek my head outside my room later. To show I'm still alive. Honestly, I feel I'm not a good enough Malaysian to take part in the elections. Hah.

lovin' them shinigamis whom can whoop ass

Busy November. *sigh* my weekends are non-existent this month. i haven't gone to lepak at Amcorp for quite some time T_T. meanwhile, my sister keeps prodding me to go for a binging session at Seoul Bulgogi. fortunately, gaji dah masuk. unfortunately, my money is now a "No Touch" zone due to October's heavy spending. x___x so i can say bye-bye to the 2 Syuju repackages. pre-screenings for some cool upcoming movies and Neopets 8th Anniversary are the only things i look forward to.

well, enough of pathetic updates of my sad life. looks like Bleach's current Hueco Mundo Arc has picked up it's slow and unexciting pace by finally re-inserting the real ass-kicking heroes of the manga series.

*smacks Kubo Tite mangaka-san on his head*

those white robed, thrashy-looking Allancars get on my nerve (with the exception of Grimmjow *coughcough*) with such a dragging plotline that spanned for like... at least 50 chapters!

FINALLY, the much awaited showdown between Aizen and the Gotei 13 (AND Gin and Rangiku) commences! mwahahaha!
