No doubt im slow, but there is a reason behind everything. my internet has been capped…..again hahaha. Regardless, even if no one reads, my mental conscience condemns me to blog about aya hirano’s upcoming single called NeoPhilia and might i say, her album is an entirely different vision. She Once again shows us that she can approach the Music world in several different methods and still capture our attention. Check it out below… ive ripped the mp3 off the clip, and ive been playing it on repeat for the past several hours. quite fun haha

Despite, my fanboyism attitude towards Aya Hirano, i have to admit, that its a very very boring PV…but i wont complain, new album from Aya Hirano will be undoubtedly good.

[SS-Eclipse] Clannad – 03 + Aya Hirano

October 22, 2007 · Leave a Comment

I cant even keep up with the anime anymore, but today i somehow squeezed time out of my study timetable to watch Clannad Episode 3.

You know, i looked at Clannad’s genre, and i the site which i seached from it said it was purely romance, and being me, i dont really like full romance animes but rather i like the mixture of comedy+romance+school life. But despite that i watched it because the synopsis sounded hella interesting. To my surprise it incorporated all what i wanted, romance comedy and school life.

Synopsis

Episode 3 mainly focuses on character development of Okazaki and some comic relief scenes. We realise that Okazaki had some fight with his father, which resulted in an injury to his shoulder, which also meant that he can no longer play basketball. This is coincidentally discovered by Nagisa, who invites him to play basketball after school.

fail !

Okazaki continues to get closer to Nagisa and helps her rebuild the drama club. He further helps her reherase her speech to the possible members of the club. But this ultimately doesnt happen, because the school council took down all the notices for the drama club. And thats where the story ends.   As usual, the episodes contain elements of comedy, contributed by mainly Sunohara’s stupidity.

Personal Impression

The episode contains both elements of comedy, especially those with Sunohara, the fact how Okazaki continues to simply toy with him makes it hilarious. ‘ Father mother, im so sorry ive been stupid my whole life ‘, man that made me crack…

stupid

and that girl who wants her knife back makes me laugh so hard hahah , shes so cute lawls. I assume the star he gives him serves some importance later in the story.

I havent really been following it tightly, since i watch and study at the same time lol…..Anyhow, its a nice light funny episode.

Something Entirely Not Related

I am a strong supporter of Zettai Ryouiki ! … and the fact that i saw what zer0 posted, brings glee to my heart….i mean aya hirano..+ zetta ryouiki..what more can you ask for hahah (note: image obtained from zer0’s blog)

And on one last note…over at  Anime Desho  theyre actually having a seifuku vote, so anyone who reads this (assuming theres 1 or 2), head over them, and vote for number 3  x]

Hell ye !  the third blog ive made. first one failed miserably with less than 10 views a year … 2nd one went rather well but i shitted it when i decided i was going to quit anime, which meant blogging was essentially boring ..

now that im in grade 11, sydney, australia… and back into this anime, jap culture phase, i decided that i might as well blog the animes i watch, or the music i end up listening to. For some quick information, my name is jun.. no im not a fucking girl, as many ppl say that name is.. but theres a really hot jap girl called jun natsukawa =] …. go search her up hahaha .. and i intend to blog most of the animes i deem worthy to watch… some ocassional rants and so on

IF all goes well, ill be moving to a proper domain….
