Yakusamashi-hen: Onigokko

Higurashi

Why the pacifier??? Seriously.

Wow, this episode was a riot, Kantoku seriously got shafted last season. And poor Keiichi forced to cosplay Bjork XD. And Rena… oh dear god, Rena, that was one dirty trick.

That’s what makes Higurashi memorable I guess, how it can go from extreme comedy to extreme violence just like that. Anyways, much thanks to Studio DEEN for upping the animation quality from the last season…. I’m halfway rewatching Higurashi now and seriously…. ughhh…

Also, dark Rika is total love. I say, Yukarin really shines when given dark roles. While her light roles *coughmoetancough* are somewhat more famous, it’s when she does dark roles like Rika do I truly love her voice.

Lucky Star 14: New characters and massive OTL.

Lucky Star 14

Yay, new cours means new characters. Welcome Yu-chan and also Minorin’s character, Iwasaki Minami, albeit in a semi-cameo role. Initially I thought I wouldn’t like Yu-chan, since I thought she would be the sugary-sweet type, but thankfully she’s more than that :). Yuki fanboys will love Minorin’s latest role too, the silent and cool type again, only with more potential for dere-dere :).

Now the good things has been said, it’s time for the kuso things….. it’s Shiraishi ED again… OTL. This time, it’s even worse. Shiraishi singing and dancing Hare Hare Yukai (dead already?) and fighting Koerarenai Kabe (unpassable wall). Dear god, I swear KyoAni staff have been on 2ch for far too long…. OTL OTL OTL OTL. Dear god, what next? Shiraishi c(r)os(s)playing? Hope not….

Lucky Star

It gets worse….

Lucky Star Karaoke Box CD

Aya Hirano is crack. Damn crack. She’s like freaking high on herself lol.

First off, her “Sore ga ai deshou” was pretty bland, until the 3rd minute where she goes high and starts singing in alternate serious and Konata voice. God, I so LMAO’ed.

Next, MONKEY MAGIC is even more crack. Why? Aaya-chan failing hard singing in English.

And Aya’s CHA-LA-HEAD-CHA-LA is full of over-the-top screaming and win.

Gotta love Kagamin for being so cute. I can almost feel her deredere-ness when she keeps failing the high tones

And Miyuki (Endo Aya) really has awesome singing voice. Chijou no Hoshi is pretty awesomely rendered by her.

Finally, everyone’s favourite, Doraemon no Uta rendered by Konata, Kagamin and Tsukasa <3.

The rest of the songs are pretty nice as well, and this is probably one of more interesting and fun to listen CD’s in a while. Ahhh, I so wanna buy it!!! Why am I already in red this month OTL…..

An interesting thing about Naraku no Hana….

First pointed out by sagematt in the AB.Net IRC channel, it seems that Naraku no Hana, HiguKai’s OP song, when reversed, sounds rather like Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, the first OP. I shat bricks when I first heard it and it’s really pretty creepy and awesome. The version sage linked was the trailer one, so I did a little messing around with the clean version from the raw, and the results can be downloaded here. Also, if you’re addicted to the song, like I am now after looping it the whole day, here’s a rip for listening convenience.

P.S. Adult Rena looks pretty young to be 38.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai

Ahh… those lifeless eyes… so hard to believe this was Rena…

Suzumiya Haruhi II finally???

Suzumiya Haruhi II

According to sources, August Newtype contains what possibly might be an official announcement of Suzumiya Haruhi II. Not much info now, since I can’t read the articles, but the best hint comes from Konata jumping at joy at the text on the monitor which reads “Haruhi two”

The official site will be updated on the 7th with this news, and possibly with more info. No idea on the airing date yet, but bear in mind that CLANNAD’s airing date is also unconfirmed yet.

Kaze no Stigma 13: Let’s go to the amusement park!

Kaze no Stigma

That is one priceless expression.

After last week’s episode, ending the minor Tsuwabuki arc, it’s time to focus back on our protagonists and Ayano is pretty entertaining this episode again.

Megami 87 - Louise

Megami 87

While the rest of the blogosphere goes “LOL ELITISM”, I’d rather enjoy this month’s Megami.

More Louise is always a good thing, isn’t it? I think she looks pretty okay in this swimsuit on the contrary of the opinions of my readers. Well, DELICIOUS FLAT CHEST YUM YUM YUM!
