Yaoi : Junjou Romantica

Oooh.. Yes, I have been slacking a lot to have caught the whole two seasons of this Yaoi. In fact, this is my #1 Yaoi I would recommend to all my friends. It's one of my favorites.. I am loving it! As my past past posts that I started watching this form of Anime not so long ago, I have really grew to like many Yaoi, but I would say this is until now the best I have seen. Yup yup..

Hmm.. well, a little bit of introduction about this Yaoi for people who doesn't know. Junjou Romantica means Pure Romance or Pure-hearted Romance. The story revolves around three couples: Misaki and Akihiko; Hiroki and Nowaki; and Miyagi and Shinobu. Oh oh, my personal preference is none other than Misaki and Akihiko.. I like Misaki more than Akihiko.. Misaki is so kawaii-neh~~

Erhem.. back to the stuffs.. Anyway, the story revolves around mostly these three couple. But it's of course not so simple as such.. it never was simple in the first place. Okay, probably I should say something more in depth. Misaki is the younger brother of Takahiro who is the childhood friend of Akihiko. Akihiko likes Takahiro apparently right from the start, but Takahiro is straight (or bi) and got married in the earlier episodes.

Misaki is a young kid and requires to sit for college entrance examinations which he possibly couldn't do it all by himself. And so Akihiko became his tutor and landlord (means they lives under one roof) overnight. Well, Akihiko became liking Misaki over one incident.. What incident possibly that could be and what will that lead them to in the end.. Ain't you starting to feel interested to the story now? Haha.. Oh yes.. This one you gotta see it for yourself..

Junjou Romantica (Anime Season Website)

The link is right above here. It comprises of 12 episodes of roughly 23 minutes of streaming each. Speaking Japanese and subtitled in English.. Very easy to understand.. And I also kindda like their theme song for the Anime ley. Nice nice nice!!! Hahaha. Ooops.. Oh, one more thing I like so much about this Yaoi is the character Nowaki. The characterising makes him so.. so nice. Everything about him is so wonderful, right from being a child he is an orphan to the fact that he falls in love at first sight with Hiroki and tries so hard so hard to love him, or deserve his love.

And if the above season you have done with, this below link in to season two! Season two is also very interesting and explain a lot more stuffs linking to season one. I am already looking forward for season three now.. ^O^ Oh oh.. the best part to season two that I think is super super exciting is the fact that Misaki got a chance to meet Akihiko's brother and father! XD Here here.. Go and see it yourself.. I won't stop you now >_=

Junjou Romantica Season 2 (Anime Season Website)

Aarinfantasy

Guess what, an old year has past and a new year has touched down. Thanks for sticking around. Something I wish to share with you guys is this website. I am sure there are tons of guys likes Japanese animation, some of which are Bleach, Naruto and One Piece. I liked none of those, but that doesn't mean I don't like Japanese animation.

I have tripped over this website, called Aarinfantasy. To some of you, I think should be rather familiar, but to the others, it is something new. It is a Yaoi Collection website. Yes, I liked watching Yaoi. Yaoi is defined as 'a popular term for fictional media that focuses on homosexual male relationships, yet is generally created by and for females' (by Wikipedia). If you got time, you may want to click on Wikipedia's link and start reading from there what does Wiki says about Yaoi.

Anyway, back to where I paused, Yaoi. I started to watch Yaoi lately, and yes, I enjoyed it. I started off watching Junjo Romantica Season 1, and from there onwards, I kindda like it. Please feel free to tour the site I have recommend if you have some excess time and doesn't know what to do with them. Maybe you can spend sometime browsing the website, and if you feel like it, download their episodes and enjoy the animation.

Something to take note, the downloading program requires Torrent. And secondly, as a fateful viewer, anyone who enjoys the animation, maybe can make some donations to keep the Yaoi art-spirits alive. Oh, and by the way, if you don't know, it is almost inaccessible to such materials in Singapore (if you know what I mean).

I personally have finished the whole season of JunJo Romantica Season 1. Looking forward for Season 2 ^_^. Meanwhile, have as well, finished watching Gakuen Heaven as well. Haha.. Have fun with my recommendation!

South Park: 1114 The List

You know how in some kids (usually the girls) enjoys making lists? Yup, they do alright.. Making lists from one to another regarding stuffs and people. And in this episode that I am recommending, it is a general display of how this can link to a side-effect of the people in the list to be affected drastically to the list persay.

Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny and a few of other guys in the class was suddenly informed that there's actually such a thing as to the girls in their classes has made a list.. A list that rates everybody in the class from the cutest to the ugliest! LOL.. And of course, it makes people react to it quite individually. The gang on one hand didn't really care about such existence of the list.. But on the other hand, some other group of people do.

Students as young as fourth graders began to take notice of something and took it personal alright. And like always, the attention would usually be on the cutest and the ugliest. And it's like how people behave, like whose the first hoping that they are mentioned, whose the last hoping that they ain't in it. And it's way funny that they started to get so nacistic and get involved with who is hotter than who and who is going to be the last on the list and so...

And all boiled downs to what they really feel about how people feel about them, and rank their looks. A battle of conscious and dignity.. And definitely, it rules almost everything a person can really dwell into now. It's time, it's TIME! To learn the truth about The List. Are these young fourth grader prepared for the result.. And what IS the result?

The story has lots of funny stuffs and twists, which I like about it as well. Watch It Now: 1114 The List (Click here).

"Oh trust me, the girls don't wish to eat pop-tarts after they got married.." Cartman to Kenny (Damn Cartman.. :-D)

P.S. South Park Zone has become X Episode due to infringement of IP.

There she is!!! Final Installment

Something that finally comes to a conclusion. Referring to my previous post: Restless is bad.. Mm'kay

Comes a final installment that concludes the whole flash. The previous time in step 4, Doki the rabbit was caught in the power struggle and in turn hurt a lot of friends involved. Nabi the cat didn't know what to do but to conform to the majority society thinking and turned his back against Doki. Nabi doesn't want to do anything, but was later on being arrested in a commotion. Just when Doki was looking for Nabi and wanted to fly to Paradise together, Nabi was in detention cell and was unreachable. If you are interested to know what is going to happen after that, please click the button below.



And as well, this is a Korean animation which I was quite interested in. And if you are too, and wish to know more, you may want to visit the website of the creator as well: http://www.sambakza.net/

One thing I really liked about this animation is the story plot. Which is about cats and rabbit (Ceteris paribus) in love. Logically, by norm and by knowledge, is wrong. But then again, what is wrong? Love didn't say they must be of the same breed.. Love also didn't specify it have to be the guy must love the girl first. A very non-conformist story plot, which is very James! And of course, the arts, and most of all, the music selected, very nice...

P.S. If you are interested to see the previous installments, feel free to click the link: Restless is bad.. Mm'kay

The Simpsons: 2007 Mypods and Boomsticks

In this episode I loved, Bart got to know a new friend Bashir, who is what he sounds like to be, a Muslim. And Homer, having all the shallow thoughts relating Muslims to terrorists with all thanks to Lenny, Carl and Moe. At the same time, Lisa got a MyPod from Krusty the clown. Under circumstances, Homer come up with an idea of asking Bashir's family to come over for a dinner, with all the wrong intentions to expose that they are terrorists.

And at the same time, Lisa loved her MyPod and was pretty happy with it. But then, she was wrong.. And she received a bill of US$1200 for all the services that she has used with the MyPod in her possession. With such a plot of story, who wouldn't want to see how the Simpsons handle them? Would Homer be able to prove that Bashir and his family are terrorists? And what is going to happen to Lisa and her MyPod and the US$1200 bill?

A parody of MyPod from IPod and Muslims as Terrorists.. Oh, I forgot to mention that there's something about Bart interrupted and insulted "Maple's" user base. And that Bashir's father have in possessions of TNT in his home. Some much exciting stuffs! Click on 2007 Mypods and Boomsticks to watch.

South Park: 1213 Elementary School Musical

The whole little changes started when Butters mentioned 'High School Musical 3' to Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman. And apparently, they didn't know and wouldn't care about it. Learning what was cool, they choose to be non-conformist and not let High School Musical and it's dances change them. Even though that they see that the whole school has totally been so into it! Funny funny.. And you know parts and parts of the movie right? They just started dancing out of nowhere! XD

Back to the episode, it was said to be 'THE most popular thing in our age group'.. And a third grader called Bridon Gueermo can into the picture of every student's topic. And every girls are just so into this junior guy, and that includes Stan's girlfriend, Wendy. Oh no, what will Stan do? How will Stan feel? Stan's position is shakened!

Stan and gang felt maybe they should watch High School Musical one day and then discover how disliking it is. With all the dancing and stuffs, they just don't wish to be involved in 'it'. And Stan, Kyle and Kenny decides to pledge that they are not going to become this, High School Musical fad. But then again, Stan knows that Wendy is becoming closer with Bridon over musical roles that they share. =D Poor Stan.

But even though Bridon the third grader is in such a famous and welcoming role, he have his own problems. One, he doesn't like musical and dances, and two, he is living with family violences and a dictative dad that wants Bridon to be just like him, into musical and dances. Oh no.. crash of conflicts! What Bridon really like is to play basketball, which his dad would say that it is a sissy sport, blar blar blar.

So what would happen to Stan and his gang in the battle of popularity in the school? What about Bridon and his family as well as his like for basketball? Oh, and not to forget about Wendy.. Watch it to see it with your own eyes, this episode is one of my favourites: 1213 Elementary School Musical. Watch it now!

Bishonen (HK)

Oooh yeah, I watch it two times in total and I quite like the movie. I don't really know what's there for me to say but that the narration is in Mandarin, subtitle is in English and the movie is in Cantonese. I personally don't understand Cantonese I got to admit, but, with the help of accurate subtitle, it makes the whole movie so much more enjoyable and understandable for me. And of course, there's Stephen Fung (main actor), Daniel Wu and Terence Yin to lookout for.

The overall feeling of the movie is something like 1/8 of gay documentary, 3/8 sex and love, 4/8 gay lifestyle in Hong Kong.. I don't know, at least that's how I feel so. Hmm.. And also, one thing, it is pretty sad that those acted as the calefare roles seems to be of very unacceptable and weird uncles of certain negative looks eh. Feels so sad if that's the true case in Hong Kong's style.

The only thing I dislike about the movie is the complications of the storyline, makes the whole picture really bad, and messy too! But it's still acceptable, since there's Daniel Wu.. LOL. I used to like Stephen Fung more, but Daniel Wu looks so cute and young in this movie. It's a 1998 productions and directed by someone called Yeung Fan.. Hmm, didn't heard of it before. Anyway, I personally would think it's deserve to watch kindda movie bah. For you guys who haven't watch it before, maybe it's time.

And in the evening, I watched Asterix: Asterix and the Vikings. It's a 2006 Animated Movie.. feeling good watching something pretty old school. It's totally fun and interesting, but not the best I can say.

In the book Asterix and the Normans a group of fearless Viking Warriors travels to Asterix's village in a quest to discover the meaning of fear, as they had heard that fear gives you wings. Unfortunately, it just so happened that the Gaulish Village fear only one thing, that the sky may fall on their heads, and the Vikings are out of luck. That is until they encounter Vitalstatistix's cowardly young nephew, Justforkix who Asterix and Obelix are teaching how to be a man.

This is where the film deviates from the book, specifically developing " the Nordic aspects of the storyline". The Vikings abduct Justforkix and bring him back to their homeland. Asterix and Obelix must travel to the icy Norway to rescue him, with almost half the movie taking place here.

For the movie, the Normans have been changed to the Vikings which is more dramatic and iconic.
Synopsis by Asterix NZ (30 Dec 2007)

The Movie as below:




Don't you just love it.. And the ending is always sweet (not the 'happy ever after' kind, but is the 'until next time') Gosh I love Asterix!
