| |  Watching Nodame Cantabile's Chiaki lately really reminds me of myself. Always looking at others, thinking to myself how crappy everyone else is, how stupid everyone is, etc. but sooner or later realize you need other people and gradually cooperate with other people's varying levels of skills, blabla blabla... Of course, I'm not a genius, but I do look down on stupid people and like to flame them inside my mind. On the other hand, to people who are more skilled than me, I bow down before them like a little puppy and beg for them to teach me their skills. I think that's what people call hypocrites. ^^;;
Anyway, long time no post.
Happy Chinese New Year, my compatriots! It's the year of the greedy pigs!
That's 95% of my high school class lol, all oink, pink, chubby pigs...
It's the first time I celebrate CNY with crystal trees outside (created by rain followed by freezing weather and then some snow), kind of nice scenery. Should've taken out my camera, but too coward to go outside in the cold and have a photo field day.
So spent my time playing PC bishoujo games... This one's called Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo (この青空に約束をー）, and the reason I'm playing it is cuz it's gonna be airing as an anime this April. Quite a lack of h-game adaptations this Spring, the only other one I know being Touka something. Konyaku (abbreviation of the title) is set on an island 10 hours away by boat off of Honshu Japan, where the story surrounds a group of students living in the only dorm for the only school on the island. It recounts the final days of these young high school adolescents as they go through the final year before the dormitory will be torn down by the school for financial reasons. Anyway, played this game bit by bit, and fallen in love with another 2D girl lol... hopeless me...
 Asakura Naoko desu~
Asakura Naoko is one of those commanding girls - she gives out orders to men and they will gladly carry out her orders (including the protagonist - and me). Her story revolves around the thought about falling in love, getting hurt, and then falling in love again after a long period of time. Her story probably won't be included in the anime due to the amount of ecchi scenes required to reproduce the most critical part of her story, so... good thing I played this game. One attractive point about her is that she is voiced by Shinozaki Futaba, but long time anime watchers will immediately recognize that it's Orikasa Ai under a disguised name :) Orikasa Ai's biggest role in my memory was Ryoko in Tenchi Muyo, and I found her voice to be very sexy and mature, so it was a very nice discovery for me ^^ Anyway, the anime will probably focus on Umi's story, which I plan on playing next. Konyaku's story tend to start light hearted but suddenly become very serious, so I do have hopes for the anime. The studio that will be producing konyaku, Marvelous Entertainment, has done Suzuka, School Rumble, Mushishi, Bokura ga ita, BECK, etc. so.. there's ups and downs, but overall I'm looking forward to it. But after what happened with Yoake... I'll be a bit more conservative and wait a bit before I commit myself to anything. There's 15 series I'm interested in fansubbing in April and given my schedule, I don't see myself fansubbing in a year, so it'd be shitty if I picked a bad anime as one of my last series to fansub. But anyway, just wanted to throw this series on the radar map for whoever still reads my xanga hehe...
Naoko-san, Naoko-san, Naoko-san~
