Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle is over!

Do you know about Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle? It is very popular anime in Japan. Many characters also involved in the Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Anime that the CHAMP taken from Card Captor Sakura, Legal Drug, Angelic Layer, X, Chobits, Magic Knight Rayearth and Tokyo Babylon.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Anime and Manga, finally be end on last month, September. I really surprised when the CHAMP decided to finish the anime,Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle so, it's great story when you start to watch anime or read this manga..But, the episodes are continue so long time.. When it's come to end, I am really don’t understand about what are Yuuko's meaning (from xXx Holic)and the memories always confuse us! @_@ All are because cloning stuffs! Syaoran and Sakura are cloned..that is why their memories are created and sometimes mix with other memories...

It is really sad and painful about Syaoran and Sakura clone because they were given a third chance at life due to some awesome loop hole and all the sacrifices made throughout the series. When a creator, Fei Wong Reed who is died, they must be dead but somewhere in another universe the clones are reborn with no past memories and we see them passing each other on the street, giving them a hope to live..I think like see them before in other manga that is related with Card Captor Sakura.

Before this come to end, I also surprised that Clone Sakura said Watanuki is same as real Syaoran! I am sure that Yuuko also knew it from the beginning when she met Watanuki in other manga (xXx Holic). The CHAMP is really smart! They make the connection between tsubasa reservoir chronicle and xXx Holic are very interesting and make us curious more about who are Watanuki and Syaoran? From beginning, I thought Watanuki and Syaoran are brothers, but they are not because their personality are different! In the truth, Watanuki is a part of real Syaoran.

When I read this manga, real Syaoran wanted to give up before Watanuki’s explanation. He was thinking about giving up his life because the clone Syaoran or real Syaoran would be too much of a price to pay.. I am really touched about Watanuki tells real Syaoran that he is happy that he was born. Even though he said “Thank you for giving birth to me” - what Watanuki really is saying “I forgive you for forcing your decisions on to other people and creating me to live a miserable life”. This is all because Fei Wong Reed wanted to bring Yuko back to life and forced Syaoran pay a price for this, that is why Watanuki is existed in other world (xXx Holic). The point is Watanuki is okay with his existence and also happy about what he live in his world and meet friends, and spirits which are very important to him.

Finally, real Syaoran and Sakura get their clones' memories inside their body. They are very sad and understand that their clones are very suffered through their jounery like 'Circle of Time', mean it never to be end for them..So, they have to do something for real syaoran and sakura with their survive of life. This is giving them to start a new life, mean real Syaoran decide to make new jounery to find what's an important of meaning in his life. Fai and Kurogane also join him..Real Sakura cannot join in, but it's really give a surprise to me!! They finally said their true name are 'Tsubasa'! Syaoran and Sakura share the SAME name. What have we learned from this entire series? That in every universe there is someone just like you that shares the same heart, soul, and name. Gender might not matter and their appearance might not be the same. So…..are Syaoran and Sakura the same person? Why they don't tell their real names in the beginning of story? O_O Maybe they hide something from..?? Why did Sakura have to hide her name all this time? Why does her family call her Sakura? This is more question which are given by the readers.. :P

I think that Sakura said "we will meet each other again". This means that CHAMP want to do new manga again? What I think about this story gives you many meaningful about what is an important life in the universal - they will meet same person in another world and share their experience in other world. For example, Sakura, Fai, Syaoran and Kuragone meet same person that they knew in another world, but same person don't know who are them, no matter same person's soul are exisited in anywhere - universal.

This story is great! Sakura and Syaoran are the teenager, sometimes different than they are kids in the Card Captor Sakura. I am to be honest.. I prefer that the Card Captor Sakura because it is very cute and fantasy. :P I will read new manga again if CHAMP do new one!

Natsume Yuujinchou

Summary

From the first season, Natsume was born with his ability to see spirits and this ability wasn’t an easy burden to carry. As a child he didn’t realize that other people couldn’t see the same things as he. So while his parents might have put up with it, when they died and he went to live with relatives – they found him creepy and didn’t want anything to do with him. Eventually Natsume gets passed to a distantly related household of a older childless couple. This couple treat Natsume kindly and he attempts to cover-up his ability because he does not want to be a bother to them.

The “Book of Friends”, as you’d imagine, is a very powerful item since Reiko defeated so many spirits in her time. As a consequence, many spirits would love to get their hands on it and many other spirits would simply like their names back. To help protect himself Natsume extracts a promise from Nyanko-sensei to be his bodyguard. So over the course of the series we get to meet spirits that want the book or want their names back or just Natsume’s help.

For more info, please visit WikiPekia: Natsume's Book of Friends.

-----------------------------------------------------------

There are getting two seasons; Natsume Yuujinchou and Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou. I think that Natsume Yuujinchou is a perfect summer-series. This story shines in the dream-like atmosphere it manages to create the calm and happniess that you can relax at as it progresses with its heart-warming stories about the interaction between spirits and humans. Many youkai are different creatures in the world! O_O Some youkai don't like human, sometimes they like human.. Some want the strong power, or many..

I really like Nyanko-sensei because it is cute cat spirit! :D First time, I saw this cat is different and looks as 'lucky cat' than normal cat.. :) Really good idea! He always love to drink sake, eating a lot, and still acts as 'funny' cat who is very sturborn! ^ ^ He always fight with Natsume.. But, he is very strong when he transformed into real 'white wolf'! Natsume is not strong as his grandmother but he still want to help the youkai and try to understand them about what they like to interact with human...

I feel pity about Natsume because he don't have any friends and always stay alone... Since he moved into his grandma's place, the 'Book of Friends' changed his life and he spend alot time with Nyanko-sensei to meet a lot of youkai who know his grandma so very well.. He also get new friends; classmates; a friend who can see the spirit and etc...Wow, Natsume is very famous and really alike as his grandma! I thought that Natsume's grandma hates human because they always bully her or don't want to near her.... :P but her heart is very care about youkai and human... She never forget them.. I wonder why she leave many things that she never solve the problem..? Maybe she wants to make her generation continue this..?

This story is really great and make funny scenes, especially nyanko-sensei.. XD The artwork is simple but it make more interesting about different youkai and the touching stories! You better to get the chance to catch this great show, I’d strongly recommend that you do!

Today, they sell the anime DVD 'Natsume Yuujinchou 1 / Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou 2' with Free CD soundtrack music. It costs RM 33.90. You can buy it from the Anime Shop, Speedy shop or anywhere..

Enjoy to read the Onemanga: Natsume Yuujinchou

Kyoukai no Rinne

You remembered about the popular manga, Inuyasha and Ranma which worked by Rumiko Takahashi? I love Inuyusha because this story is very amazing and make more challenges between Inuyusha's group and evil enemies- youkai, spirits, etc! It is very interesting story! I not yet finish read Ranma manga..Haha. Check out my review about Inuyasha and Ranma.

After Rumiko finished the long story of Inuyasha, Kyoukai no Rinne is new manga just released in last month. It called 'Rinne' - japanese manga series written and illustrated.. The story of new manga is about a girl who got lost in woods mysteriously then acquire ability to see ghosts and spirits. I not sure if this will be horror story like Inuyasha?

THE SUMMARY

Sakura Mamiya, a high school girl who became able to see ghosts after she was "spirited away" for a week when she was a child, though she does not remember the details of the experience. Once in high school, Sakura wishes to be done with her extrasensory perception which is an annoyance to her. She meets a shinigami of sorts named Rinne Rokudo, a classmate of hers who was absent for the first month or so of school. His job is to guide spirits, who are bound to the Earth due to regrets, to the wheel of reincarnation so that they may be reborn. The wheel appears as a large red, spoked wheel revolving in the sky...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I read this manga, I feel that this girl is really stupid, not like Kagome (Inuyasha) and Akane (Ranma).. Sometimes, she looks as cute, but she still confuse about what is different between human and spirits.. I am sure that she will make more trouble with Rinne when he has a mission about exorcises a spirit while he works as 'Shinigami'. Maybe she try to understand about 'another world'..

For me, she looks as Kagome? Because she can see the ghosts and spirits..What you think about it? :P



Rinne is Sakura's classmate and shinigami that sending the ghosts/spirits to another world through a large red, spoked wheel revolving in the sky..Why his hair is red?? He looks as Ranma character..I think that he is similar as 'Inuyasha' but, he also acted as 'cool' or sometimes show his pififul sin..He is funny when he still need coins and money to exorcise a spirit.. That is why he always borrow $$ from Sakura..He is really poor and don't have alot of clothes... Its surispre me about a shinigami need to pay $$ if he/she want to exorcise..? :P

So far, Kyoukai no Rinne has been kinda Bleach-ish, with Shinigami thing going on.. I like the beautiful red wheel used as the path to another world, mean if you die, you will send there.. Rinne's grandma knew something about Sakura? We will see what happen about this story! :)

Enjoy to read Rinne manga in MangaFox and Onemanga!

Hikaru no Go

THE SUMMARY

Hikaru Shindo is just a normal 12 year old boy, but one day he's rumaging through his Grandfather's things to see if he can find something to sell and pulls out an old Go board. A ghostly apparation appears out of the board and tells Hikaru his sad story. His name is Sai Fujiwara, a man who was a Go instructor to the emperor of Japan a thousand years ago.

However, because of bad sportsmanship of his opponent during a game, Sai was accused of cheating and banished from the city. With no livelihood or any other reason to live, Sai commited suicide by drowning himself. Now, he haunts a Go board, and wants to accomplish the perfect Go game, called the "Hand of God" which he hopes to do through Hikaru. If Hikaru will be able to do it or not (or even wants to) will have to be seen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just now, I have finished reading this manga in a couple of days. Haha, actually I don't know anything related to board game such like chess or Go. Even I also dunno the rule of those game. @.@ Back to time ago, I saw my colleague reading this manga, and I was wondering whether it's interesting story. So I gave myself a chance to read. To my surprise, it's definitely an interesting story until it can beat your adrenaline out or make your heart pounding too fast or causing you sweating a lot as if you are challenged by a Go player. o.O

Even though it is an interesting story, it is also sad story where a ghost and a child are too attached to each others but it ended up by a ghost disappearing someday and a child will lose his will to play Go. This reminds me of a friend warning me that don't too attach yourself to a friend, who will know your friend will dump or betray you one day. Hahaha, it's funny. XD I do agree but only 10%.. To me, it's common as there are always a meeting and a separation everywhere. Is important that we always have to remember them in mind. =D

The character in this story are pretty awesome. With different personality and skill, the challenge in Go game become more intense yet interesting. Hikaru can meet each person and learn from the tournament then improve, sharpen or restructure his playing skill. I think it's totally different from chess. Ah, sorry I don't really know that deep about Chess. It's just my opnion :) I never try or learn Go game before. It's a rare game and kinda an ancient traditional game. Hehehe. I think playing traditional game are encouraged. In Malaysia, there are some traditional game but nowadays I rarely see people playing those. =S

Ooops, I shouldn't get off from the branch line... Hehehe, I recommend you to read this manga in OneManga or MangaFox. Throw me your rating here after you read them. ;)

Skip Beat!

THE SUMMARY

Kyoko Mogami has devoted her life to Shotaro. When Shotaro came to Tokyo to debut as a singer, she followed him and worked to provide for him.

But one day, Kyoko overhears Shotaro telling his manager that Kyoko means nothing to him. She's just convenient, a housekeeper. This makes Kyoko furious, and she vows revenge on Shotaro. But Shotaro just laughs at her, saying she won't be able to touch him because he's now a popular singer and she's a nobody. So Kyoko decides to get into showbiz and become even more popular than Shotaro to humiliate him. Unfortunately, Shotaro has destroyed Kyoko's ability to love, and she discovers that it is a prerequisite for her to debut from her chosen company, LME. The president of LME puts her into a new section made for those who caught his eye but have something missing. It's name... Section Love Me.

Along the way, however, she will discover who she really is, make new friends, and find herself in interesting situations that will change her life forever.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, at the first glance at this title, I was thinking it is only about a war in celebrity world. But it is not like what I thought. O.O It's totally different! It's about a girl who doesn't know anything about celebrity or acting skill. So basically she is lack of talent. Even though she is so, but she is able to be radiating actress with the help of her basic knowledge in her life. She is very good at channeling her sense through her experience life to acting skill. So the character she portrayed is coming to life like she is that character, made many people included me stunned!

Besides that, she is able to influence the people around her, causing the people completely changed their hatred one into friendly one. Because of her unique acting skill or silly personality, mostly actress hates her but ended up by changing their opinions about Kyoko! Wow, it's like a miracle. I sometimes wonder whether Kyoko was fairy in her previous reincarnation... XD

Haha, seems like Skip Beat! is mostly focused on Kyoko... While that, why not giving yourself a try to read? Here's Onemanga or MangaFox, you can read... The rest assured that you will like it!

On the Way to a Smile: Episode of Denzel

THE SUMMARY

Four years after Meteor fell on Midgar, Denzel meets with Reeve Tuesti and requests Reeve to let him join the WRO (World Regenesis Organization). Seeing his determination, Reeve asks him what his story is and why he wanted to join the WRO so he proceeds to tell Reeve about his life prior to the fall of Meteor.

His story also narrates Denzel's parents dying when the Sector 7 plate falls, living with Ruvie who is revealed to be Reeve's mother during their meeting afterwards and ultimately surviving Meteor's fall and becoming a scavenger in the ruins of Midgar before being rescued by Cloud.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This Episode of Denzel is an OVA adaption of One the Way to a Smile, a part of the novella set in between Final Fantasy VII and the featured film Final Fantasy VII : Advent Children. Ha, how to say...To put it straight forward, it shows the end results of Final Fantasy VII but this time we view it from Denzel's perspective. To me, this Episode of Denzel is rather not being a story but it is more like a philosopher's life. Even though it is so, but I feel not so bad to watch this anime!

This kid is not just a normal child as he continues striving together with his tale of love and lose. Oh gosh, he is damn serious and mature! I was kept being surprised by his tale. He is such a determined and spirited kid! He is determinded to join the WRO in order to shows that he is an independent kid and he don't want everyone to help him so often. I laughed as when their interview ends, Johnny (Tifa's old friend from Nibelheim) teases Denzel who wanna to be stronger like Cloud but ends up hurting girl's heart. Haha

Ranma 1/2

Ranma ½ (Ranma Nibun no Ichi, pronounced Ranma one-half) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Rumiko Takahashi who created the InuYasha, popular manga. The story revolves around a 16-year old boy named Ranma Saotome who was trained from early childhood in martial arts. As a result of an accident during a training journey, he is cursed to become a girl when splashed with cold water, but hot water will change him back into a boy.

This story is very popular with the children and teenagers. It always give more comedy and funny stories about the characters' relationship when Ranma and Akane faces many challenges since Ranma and his dad was staying in Akane's parent house...

For more information about Ranma 1/2

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, they always have martial arts competitions (whether martial tea-ceremony or martial cheer-leading) faded, in favor of more character-oriented action. It is really interesting, but it more silly! :P Sometimes the characters are stupid or clever when they joined in the martial arts competitions. Because the girls really angry and want to beat a strong girl, Ranma! Sometimes, Akane was jealous of Ranma? :P Maybe she loves him?

But, Ranma enjoyed to be girl when he wants to make the guys lose to him, especially Ryugo.. ^ ^lll This make me very laugh. Many different characters still come to find Ranma and Akane! Pity him because they have to fight with their enemies on every day! But, their dads' master is very pervert and always crazy about the beautiful girls! O_o Also get a strong girl want to take Ranma from Akane..Ryugo wants to confess his love to her! :D That is why they meet many enemies in their life! Finally, Ranma 1/2 and InuYasha already be completed in this year! :)

If you like this story filled with comedy and funny, you better to read this mangafox: 'Ranma 1/2'

Tales of the Abyss

THE SUMMARY

For the summary, you can refer to the previous entry Tales of the Abyss, that I posted last year.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arrgghhh, the game Tales of the Abyss has been adapted into anime by Bandai Visual, Namco and Sunrise Animation Studios! I know about this adaption news from a local magazine and couldn't wait to watch. Now my dream is realized finally...and I bought this DVD. =D Nah, I just want to know whether the story is same as the game's story or not. Oh, the story has slightly altered. The outcome is still the same. ;)

Anyway, although the story has slightly altered, yet I found this storyline is much more interesting compared to the original story. This story shows more tantalizing romance, amazing fantasy and stunning fighting action, making all into dazzling one that you never seen before. Some scenes cannot be shown in the game, now it make more clearer with its story flowing. And yeah, I understand its storyline much better. But the ending is very sorrowful yet touching, made I almost cried...

Some more, the animation is very perfect. Why is it so? They emphasize some certain fighting technique. Not only sword versus sword like the plain fight you see in war, they varies different weapon used in combat battle. Beside that, anime has included quite many monsters, make its more interesting. Oh ya, the most amusing thing is Anise's tokunaga. In the game, I never can see how could she manipulate her tokunage such as enlarging the tokunaga.

You better to buy and watch this anime. Who will know it would meet your liking! =P

Pokémon: Giratina and the Sky Warrior

THE SUMMARY

The Reverse World is a world that accepts pollution from the Real World in the form of poison so that the environmental balance of the Real World is not destroyed by air pollution. Giratana looks upon Dialga and Palkia as its enemies because the effects of contamination in the Reverse World have increased as a consequence of last year's last time-space clash.

Dialga, who is resting at a lake, is attacked from the Reverse World by Giratana and dragged to the Reverse World, and Shaymin, who is at the scene, also gets caught up. The conflict between Giratana and Dialga is broken up when Shaymin absorb the posion that's all over the Reverse World and explodes, allowing Shaymin and Dialga escape. While escaping, Dialga places the Reverse World in a time loop, closing it so Giratana can't enter the Real World.

After that, Shaymin encounters Ash and friends, communicating telepathically to ask for their help so it can be reunited with the other Shaymin in the Gracidea garden. Soon, they're dragged into the Reverse World and meet Newton Graceland, who's been researching the mysterious realm. At the same, Zero, who was Newtown's former assistant, seeks to harness Giratana's power to rule the Reverse World even if that means destroying the real world!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yahoo, it is finally comes that I can watch this Pokemon the 11th movie after a year waiting. Is it childish to watch? =P Haha, but I love the cutesy creature. That's why I bought this DVD. Wow, although I never follow up the Pokemon series, I don't know that Pokemon would consist a large community of cute Pokemon. I found out that the latest season's Pokemon are much cuter than the first season, I can vividly remember.

This 11th movie really gives me a strong impression compared to the previous movie. This story talks about pollution and humanity. Wow, Giratana look like a very violent monster but it's actually a good creature. o.O Because Giratana have own responsible which he have to guard the Reverse World. He dislikes anything in the Real World creating a distortion that could affect the Reverse World. I thought Pokemon are just thoughtless creature. Haha... Never expect that they have own emotion and thought.

Oh ya, Shaymin is such a cute Pokemon. His design is after a hedgehog... They look alike, right? Hehe, when I see this Shaymin for the first time, I fell in love with it... It have an amazing power which it can cleanse the air by absorbing the toxin but it have bad side effect - after absorbing, it will explode. Haha. It is said to be the rare Pokemon that dwells in the flower field. It can evolve from Land Forme to Sky Forme. Its Sky Forme looks like a reindeer. I wonder how could a hedgehog be related with a reindeer. XD

Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas

THE SUMMARY

The Lost Canvas unfolds the story of the previous Holy War, taking place in the 18th century, 250 years before the original series, in the Saint Seiya universe.

During the Holy War, Athena's Saints fights against the Specters from Hades. One day, Gold Saint Libra Dohko is impressed by Tenma 's ability to use the cosmos when Dohko finds him, he asks Tenma to attend the Sanctuary in Greece to become Athena's Saint.

There, he finds Sasha who is revealed to be Athena's reincarnation. She is also Alone's sister and Tenma's childhood friend from an orphanage from Italy. By that time he meets her, he fails to protect Sasha from Worm Raimi and it causes him to become more determined. As promised, he become Pegasus Bronze Saint after only 2 years.

During the next two years while Tenma is away for the Holy War, Alone encounters Pandora who recognizes him as Hades's reincarnation. Upon discovering who he is under the influence of Hypnos and Pandora, he is ready to gather his Specters and starts launching the war against Athena. His identity is soon discovered by Tenma and Sasha.

What will happen upon their discovery on Hades's identity? Sasha who wishes to live with Tenma and Alone again like the time they were in the orphanage... Tenma who wishes to save Alone, even if he must injure him for that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember I wrote about the original Saint Seiya in very first previous entry? Here's another sequel to the original one...Ooops, I should say it is pre-sequel as it happened 25o years ago before the original one. So, mostly of the characters in the original Saint Seiya are the reincarnation from The Lost Canvas. Plus there are many new characters are introduced such like Crane Yuzuriha, Altar Hakurei (Elder Jamir) and some from Hades's.

I really pity on those characters - Tenma, Alone and Sasha. Unlike the original Saint Saint, Sasha, Alone and Tenma had a special bond. Sasha is the sister to Alone while Tenma and Alone are best friends. But Alone eventually become Hades, their arch-enemy. Sure they are suffering because they have to fight against Hades in order to protect their world but in their heart, they are resistant to do so.

Alright, that would be enough for a review. Go to OneManga : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas or MangaFox : Saint Seiya : The Lost Canvas to read for your own evaluation. =P

Shugo Chara!

THE SUMMARY

The little cute heroine, Amu Hinomori as a student at Seiyo Elementary is deemed as "cool and spicy" character with rumours speculate about her personal life. Feel torubled for not able to show her true personality of a shy girl, she makes wish for courage to show her true self.

Next morning, she finds three brightly coloured eggs. Three eggs hatch into Ran (Athletic) , Miki (Artist) and Su (Cook). Her life then becomes more much complex when she is recruited into Seiyo Elementary's Guardians and becomes the Joker.

With the title of the Joker, she is given a special task which she has to hunt down X-Eggs or X-Characters and purify it to original form.

At the same time, a company named Easter are busy extracting people's eggs in search of Embyro which can grant any wishes of anyone who possesses it. Together Amu and the Guardians must stop their evil doing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was introduced this story by my former schoolmate. Thanks to him kept pestering that this story is the best, I develop an interest and liking in this story after reading two or three chapters. This story reminds me of Sailor Moon since their story has quite similar concept from the aspect of transformation and abilities. Compared to Sailor Moon, it is much better as it has mixed different genres; comedy, fantasy, supernatural and romance!

Well, let me give a brief explanation on Chara and X-Egg. The Chara is a little mascot created from child's own wish and also based on their "would-be" personality. X-Egg is the corrupted form of people's dream, filled with resignations or resentments that give the children trouble. If I am in this story, I will pray for my own Chara...Wondering what kind of Chara it will be! XD

All the characters are amazingly likeable as they grows on you as the story progresses. Somemore, they have own Chara and the Chara is very obviously cute as you can see. Hmm, I am surprised that Chara also can be aid to the children to discover what they want. Sometimes the Charas are naughty by doing own thing thus that would make everything look hilarious!

Alright, enjoy reading this manga in neither MangaFox : Shugo Chara! or OneManga : Shugo Chara!.

Detective Conan : Full Score of Fear

THE SUMMARY

To cut a long story shorten, this movie is about serial murders and bombards involving all kinds of musicians have occurred. It is discovered that all the victims are from a Music School led by a famous organist and former pianist named Doumoto Kazuki.

Conan and his accomplices have been invited to attend the opening concert of Music Hall. The biggest attraction of this concert is the world famous violin called "Stradivarius" and a special appearance of the main Soprano named Akiba Reiko who has perfect pitch from that same school as well.

However, due to unknown reason, Akiba has been being attacked thus it falls to Conan to protect her, investigate the true motive of all the serial murders and catch the murderer before the concert become bloody stage of a tragedy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are fan of Nodame Cantabile or classical music, you may ought to see this this movie as it consists a lot of music performance. But too bad that I am deaf, can't hear the rhythm... XD But the environment on the stage of the concert are really conceiving. When watching this concert, you will feel like you are at the concert there. o.O

What I like about this movie is Akiba Reiko. Although she is just a supporting character, but she managed to steal the main female character spotlight from Ran who is the usual in the previous ones and become more active character at Conan's side. I am sorry for Ran but I really like Akiba better. She really look very elegant and also a smart lady. What's unique about her is that she has perfect pitch... I wonder what it feel like having a perfect pitch. XD

However, the method of murders are extremely boring indeed as the death are just an instant and quicked skimmed past. It can't bring us to heart beat in guessing who is really the murderers. No clues... No evidences... No big climax... =/ But the outcome or the conclusion is fine still... I hope the next movie should make its BIGGEST CLIMAX.

Note: This post was supposed to be released last month but due to photo uploading error, I abandon this blog temporarily.

Shuurei is very hard working and always does her best at both house hold chores and her many jobs, but she can be a bit of a workaholic sometimes and when she gets into something she never stops working to get the job done.

Shuurei's whole world s turned upside down, however, when she recieves a request to come and work at the Imperial Palace as the temporary consort and tutor to the young Emporer, Shi Ryuuki, who shows a very promenent distaste for the kingdom and seems to be especially dull-witted. Shuurei, with a bit of pushing and prodding, as well as some good advice and a very strong will, manages to get the Emporer to learn at least a little, but he might not be as thick-skulled as he seems. And maybe he sees more in Shuurei than he should, and therefore may be just the person to make her dreams come true...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love this anime because it is an interesting when Shuurei try to take the exam, but she faces lot challenges from the greedy, evils, and inresponbility officers in the palace..So, it is not easy for her.. They always turn down on her because she is woman.. But, she is lucky because she get her friends who support her, especially the emporer Ryuuki. He cannot help her in the front of the officer because he is aware of his status as important 'emporer'. I think that they always love each other in their secret.. lol.. Funny,Shuurei thought that Seiran and Ryuuki are gay since beginning.. Maybe Seiran fell love on Shuurei so early since he is kid who adopted by Shuurei's parent..That is why he still want to follow her go to where.. Ryuuki cannot follow her and put his trust on Seiran and his friends when she gets the mission at outside..

This is very great! I finished to watch the season 1 and 2 ;Saiunkoku Monogatari. It still not yet complete, so it will continue to new season 3.. I will buy this anime when its complete! ^ ^

I know that it is not easy for Shuurei to choose Ryuuki or Seiran because she still love both!! :D

Better to buy new anime DVD or enjoy to read the manga Sainukoku Monogatari!

Tactics

THE SUMMARY

Tactics follows the exploits of the young man with the ability to see goblins and other mythical beasts named Kantarou Ichinomiya. Ever since he was born he had the 6th sense to see the demons and others mythical creatures called “Oni”. When he was a little boy his friend Oni told him about the creature that is stronger than Oni called “Tengu”, it is the legendary demon-eating goblin. Since that story told him he dream to have a Tengu that will be his buddy forever. When he grew up he became a folklorist, who write books and article about Japanese folklore, but he also work as a monster buster secretly. In the episode “The Black Goblin Awakens”, Kantarou went to exorcise monster he was lead to a rural shrine up in the mountain where the Tengu, demon-eating goblin was sealed there. When Kantarou breaks the seal, he named the Tengu Haruka, in naming a Tengu it forces to be a slave of someone who gave name with it. As the fulfillment of Kantarou dream, Haruka became his partner in fighting the evil Oni. With his tengu and his kitsune, they solve mysteries, and help the yokai situation in Japan.

I like the mystery screen about Minamoto Raiko and his group of soldiers come in. Together with another formidable demon, Raiko and his attendants plot many plans to try and force Kantarou to cancel the name contract or make Haruka awaken his real powers, such that they would be able to capture Haruka and present him to "that person" whose identity is unknown. If the name contract is not canceled or if the master dies, Haruka's power would forever be restrained and he would not be able to be used by the antagonists. But unfortunately those antagonist did not success in their evil mission and Haruka back in his senses and go back to Kantarou. They start again and do their usual routine such as fighting evil spirit and saving people. So, this make me curious about who is Haruko's previous master because I saw his previous master alike as Kantarou.. Maybe is Kantarou's dad or grandpa.. :D

It is weird that Haruka love to wear a tuxedo after he released from his seal.. :P Maybe he hate to wear the traditional cloth that remind him to remember his past? Or he changed his personality since he wakes up from sleep..? Well, my friends said this is the somewhat unspoken love between Kantarou and Haruka. So, the underlying homosexual tension never evolves nor is mentioned by any character, it is evident throughout the series … until the end where their relationship turns sour..

But, we sure said this story is very good and get funny characters also give u laugh out!

Enjoy to read the manga Tactics or you try to buy it in the anime shop.

With this power, he is able to defeat him in the duel. Together they face many mysteries and uncover unexpected truths including the nature of Saito's power and the truth behind Louise's inability to cast magic.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I watched this anime, the first impression about this anime is that the setting appears to be very much a rip-off of Harry Potter's famed Hogwarts. But then when I watch this anime continuously, I found it is not very similiar... Just my first impression. :P But again, it's yes as it is much basically similiar to Hogwarts. A mage school.... And the world is wonderfully blended with such nice and soft colors that added with somewhat effects!

The characters in this anime are quite pleasure,often stuck to the humor and to relationship octagon, makes a full series of comedy. Satio just come from other world but he quickly become a likeable person at Tristain's! One who has a crush on him! One who goes crazy after him! One who becomes his rival! One who feel annoyed with him! Arr, all about him?! -.-" Those main characters in anime shares the common with Yuuji and Shana in Shakuga no Shana. Louise and Shana are both noticably fecrocious while Saito and Yuuji are both blindingly dumb!

Oh my! I don't know that there have 2nd season of ZnT: Futatsuki no Kishi; translated as "Knight of the Two Moons"! I must go to shop and buy this anime. Will do a review for you ya.

Btw, the manga is availble as well. Visit Zero no Tsukaima and enjoy reading ya!

Yakitate!! Japan

THE SUMMARY

“Yakitate” literally means “fresh baked” and the word “Japan” is actually a pun: (ja-pan) “pan” means “bread”; freshly baked Japanese bread!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, this is my first time to watch this anime which is related with the bread, so it is really good story! Everyone should know what is about the bread because we always eat our bread on every breakfast, right? :D I think that Azuma is very genius when he was doing the bread with his different of techniques and always get the support from his trust friends; Kawachi, Suwa, and Kanmuri. Kawachi is very stupid but, he tried to help Azuma and his friends. Kanmuri and Suwa are very good at the making the bread but, they cannot beat Azuma.

They always show the different of recipes for bread. Sometimes, it provide the recipes - simple bread if you want to try it. I like to see the chapters 'Yakitate!! 25' - show different characters display during the judging are humorous and illustrate an aspect in Japanese food culture; in the culture food. For example, they have competition in Kyoto, mean Azuma and his friends have to think new idea to do new bread for Kyoto only. So, it’s enjoyable, fairly funny and well animated!
