#278. The end of a new year + Starry Sky CD + Kanno Mukashi Banashi Vol. 1

Today is the last day of 2010. What are you guys planning to do tonight? My sister recommends doing a countdown at home. I was like LUL. Isn't that just sad? I was hoping for pizzas and alcohols so I can get drunk while making a new year's cake and worship my beloved characters on it. It's the otaku frenzy nowadays. *ooglingoverpictures*

Let's see if we can find anything productive to do for the rest of the day.

So before I go shoot myself for looking at this....UGH. WHY. WHY JAN. WHY NOT FEB. I am only left with a bit of cash and I definitely don't have the cash to burn for this. Screw my insane purchases. LOL. But I do have till the 10th to actually consider this or I go rob my mom for the money to buy this. We will see what kind of insane plan I will come up with to get this. 8D

It's practically like Sweet and Bitter version. The only difference is the PLOT. Oh lord, no kidding. I

'm joking lul. Instead of being divided into two groups, they're all available in one package for a damaging price of 3000 yen which is actually the same price as the regular edition version of the cd. OTL. With the addition of fees and domestic shipping...I can die now.

See my dilemma now?! I'm on the roll... No kidding. :/

Kanno Mukashi Banashi. :0 It was originally announced back in 2009 in JanuaryJanuary 2009 but released in July 2009. It's actually a series of 6 cds and still ongoing. Just treat it like a collection of stories from different origins. Each cd deals with one specific type of stories. The first one dealt with Japanese Folk Tales. Second volume was Anderson's Tales (I cried in this one). Third is about Kaidans. Fourth is on Grimm's Fairy Tales while the fifth one is about Greek Mythologies. The 6th is about the stories of the historical figures of the Sengoku Era.  There are also a couple of extra cds which are released such as the Happy Prince. (You know, the statue made of gold and the swallow) If I remember correctly, the next one in line will be Romeo and Juliet. The jacket art is amazing and I'm tempted. LOL

Now don't start off by googling for downloads to the series. There's a catch. You can't let kids listen to this or they will be scarred for life. @.@ AM SERIOUS. This is SRSZBZNESS. They retell the stories in an sexy adult kind of way. @.@ It is definitely not the kind of story I would let my kids listen. But for fangirls? Get ready for intense blood loss. 

I almost died of fangasm when Inoue-sama Kazuhiko whispered. LOL. My ears felt like they're completely rape and I cannot stop blushing! Made me wonder what I would be like when my Shukan Soine CDs arrive. I mean Daisuke Hirakawa will kill me with his voice. (Not that he didn't during Kichiku Megane). I mean, in bed? Squirming? *diesofbloodloss*

The selling point of these cds is not only because of the delicious seiyuu's voice. It is also because of the usage of the 3D dummy head microphone which increased the intimacy between the listener and the seiyuu. So it is highly recommended for full effects that you all are required to put on your headphones or earphones during this time!  

But if you forget, don't worry! The first track is normally Kazuhiko reminding you and giving you the time to get your headphones. He will also be doing a test trial to see whether you stuff in your headphones or earphones properly to get the full effect of his smexy voice. Hot no?

However, not all of the CD is purely recorded in 3D goodness. Only the important part of the tracks which required intimacy is given full attention. And it normally involves the seiyuu's trying to woo you over and make you go gaga as they make kissing or sucking sounds. @.@ Not good for children at all. 

All of the cds will have a prologue and an epilogue with 4 short stories which will last 15 minutes each. The epilogue ends with kazuhiko thanking you for listening to the cd. 

 The first story is Issun Boushi or known to most non-Japanese as the One-Inch Boy. For those who're not familiar with the story. It's about a boy who is no bigger than a thumb who was born to an old couple. They treated him well. But he wanted to find his own place in the world so he set out on his journey. His father gave him a needle as a sword while his mother gave him a wooden bowl to use as a ship. And he soon came to the city's most wealthiest man's house. He told the man he wanted to join his guards but instead he was given to the daughter to be his daughter's play mate.

Now this is where the unnecessary erotic part comes out. LOL  Turns out, you, the listener, is taking the role of the daughter and you have to go through Issun Boushi's erotic voice while he tries to cheer you up and make you feel better because you got pricked by a flower. @.@;; He will suck the blood out. Omg, sucking sound by my ear! Imma die and there will be sexual innuendos hinted. Then the 3D effect ends with saying what a bad princess you're. 

LOLOLOL. 

Listen to the rest yourself and you will get what I mean. The story then continues. What turn me off is the last story of volume 1. Remember the old story about the crab who found an onigiri and the monkey tried to tarde it with a seed? (More like trying to trick the crab in exchange for his seed.) The 3D part...was....unexpected. I almost cried when my kawaii crab was violated by that...monkey! (He makes a nice uke.) I mean like seriously?! EW. That is just so wrong?!!! 

If that was BL H, I wouldn't mind but ewww. That was just too wrong! I will never see them the same way again!

#277. Drama CD hype!

 

(*_*) Imma die of the hotness right now. 

Seriously, 3D is like all the hype since 2009. I remember being super excited to watch a movie in 3D. And now, forgive me for my out of dateness but audio in 3D?!!!

HDEJHDEWDHE

WTHECK?

As soon as I found out, I ordered the Shukan Soine series, Money Bee's Starry Sky Bitter and Sweet version and one of the Dolly series.

So...here are the things which are going to grace my doorsteps in 2011!

1. 【グッズ-ポスター】ファインダーの標的 ミニクリアポスター/B
2.   ｢ファインダーの標的｣高羽秋仁抱き枕カバー
3.   週刊添い寝CDシリーズ vol.1 翔 
4. Shukan Soine CD Series Vol.2 - Jin
5. Starry Sky -in sweet season-
6. Starry Sky -in bitter season-
7. Dolly Fougere

Next aim of mine at the end of January!

• Kanno Mukashibanashi series. (All 7 of them including the future release in Feb 2011) Muahaha!

Not only that, I managed to download the Shukan Soine for test trial. It is addicting and I got goosebumps for listening to them. Especially since the guy is beside you in your mind. 8D He is really beside you, mind you but just not physically there but there. Well, you will get it once you listened to it.

By 3D, I don't mean it like what you see in the movies. It's actually in the form of a Dummy Head Microphone which the user can fully utilize it by making it sound more realistic aka surround sound. You can google more to see what it is. A lot of otome drama cds seems to be making their moolah by adding these "effects" as it makes the fangirls go absolutely gaga. *coughsmeforonce*

:D

After listening to this, all the drama cds I listened to sounds very bland. Hopefully, BL drama cds will use this feature and I swear I can die happy.

HAHA.

New Years is just round the corner! And there's a picnic on new Year's Day! Wow, very smart of us!

#276. Christmas + Orders

If you happen to stop by the Starry Sky's boys' own twitter page (all thirteen of them) on Christmas eve, they prepared something extra special for all the fans out there. :3 Each of the boys will have their own Christmas message to you and there are 4 different sizes of calendars in the form of a wallpaper for the fans.

Neat, huh? :D

The messages are awfully cute and I helped myself to the wallpapers.  :D

I finally placed orders for the great Asami Ryuichi poster and the Takaba Dakimakura. Can't resist the hotness.

Then again, I won't ever able to resist anything which is related to Viewfinder. @.@;;

#275. 吐血！

OH. MAI. GAWD. I CAN'T RESIST THE CUTENESS.

Thank you so much cuzzie for the piggie!! Loving it very much!

And for that, I should give you one big gracious hug.

ThenthenexttimeImeetyou,Ishallrapeyoutillyoucannotseestraight.


*hugs*

I kinda forgot how it feels like to have your head rammed into the wall. So I finished Nessa no Rakuen in like 8 hours top.

And I swear, I fell asleep halfway. It was BORING. I know this is supposed to be plotless. But I just couldn't help it. It's still BORING. :( But I have to admit, Hakim is an absolute eye-candy. But for Ashraf?

CAN HIS VOICE GET ANYMORE GAYER?

LOL.

#274. Nessa no Rakuen

And here we have it. I find it absolutely astounding that the team which did this game was faster than the one who did TMGS. Well, not that am complaining. It's just too fast to be true? I saw the announcement for this game back then and I have to agree I was immediately pulled in...and I just...seriously, just cannot resist it. But then I have been busy so I sorta neglected this game...

Oh come on. HOW CAN I EVEN STAND IT?! I'm super slow when it comes to finding time for my BL games. I blame it all on TMGS and my tremendous ambition to finish them with full cgs before going on to the next one. I only played the beginning of the game and Will, oh lord, not just Will, the visuals of the game are incredibly drawn and colored.

I like the way they drew Hakim. Damnhottanpeople. And the casts are an absolute to die for! Loving their voices! So far so good. Nothing bad. The plotline can be easily understood but I wonder how cliche it can get.

:/ Tries to find flower but got tricked by suspicious people on the street. There isn't much to ponder about that, isn't it?

I just haven't reach becoming-part-of-the-harem part. :p I'm in it for the eye candy only. No matter how 狗血 the whole thing is, nobody can deny Hakim is a piece of meat every fujoshi will want to get their hands on.

#273. Tnc + Wine = Hot

If only these were released when I was there in Japan. :( -shootsself-

First off, I would like to say I'm terribly sorry. I accidentally replaced my old blog layout and I lost all the links of my fellow buddies as well as my tag board along with it.

I can easily put up another tagboard but OTL, I forgot my username and password. Okay, I am unable to reason with anyone about it. Not that I want to, anyways. Since I'm an idiot to boot.

And I added a nifty Comment section so you guys can comment on my post instead of leaving me tagboard messages.

TnC anime was a terrible let down. It looks cheap. The plotline is fucked up. Shiki is messed up. Nano is more fucked up than we imagine. :( Thank goodness I stopped watching it halfway. Watching it to the end will be more painful.

Can I cry crocodile tears now?

On the other hand, I still have yet to post up my Japan Trip pictures and my loots. I wouldn't call it loots since it's not much. I managed to find the Kazuaki Artworks there and my Chayamachi Chiral works. Last book on the shelf. I almost killed myself when I ran into the stupid pole. Damn it. @.@ WHY ARE JAPAN BOOKSTORES SO HUGE. 

I feel so ashamed now.

#272. Back!

I saw loads of stuffs there in Japan. Experienced their culture.

And I will dedicate myself to write about it.

Soon.

I think. :p

#271. Bon Voyage~

I want everyone to see how absolutely cool Sakurai Koichi is. And he's mine. HAHAHAHAHHAHAA. Big thanks to Piang for drawing me this. <3

Isn't he the awesomest?! Now if only I can get my hands on his charms... :(

Anyways, I will be away from today onwards so no blogging till am back. So...

HIATUS MODE!!!

#269. Kousaka Kirino - You're My New Hero

I love her. I seriously do. I love the way she go all cute and tsundere at the same time. I love the fact she has a brother complex. I love the way she play her eroge games. I love how she is a closet Otaku. I love the way she acts and the way she walks and runs.

Yes, am obsessed with her.

LOL.

ANYWAYS, I will be leaving to Japan on the 6th. :P And won't be back till the 16th or 17th!

Tata!
