I am tsuntsun desuu~!
I just came home from my trip, which is the reason for my blog inactivity, as well as my temporary detachment from the recent activities in the blogosphere. The current hot dorama topic spells ‘ABC’, and I’m not too happy with that, considering how I’m supposed to be part of this group.
I stay away from e-doramas as much as possible, because they’re nasty and ruins all kinds of fun. But since the current ABC issues involve not only its spearhead ‘leader’ Owen, but the rest of the members of the group, I felt compelled to say my stand about/against this, especially considering how I even made a post in defense of ABC (and Owen). How ideal of a group it is, and how un-nazi-esque or dictatorial it is. Or so I thought.

Rumors of my identity have been greatly exagerrated, such as being this Reisen bunny of the game Touhou
The comments I’ve read in my Shugo Chara DS game post reminded me of the time I was in the same boat as them. When I was a Nihongo n00b, yet filled with the desire to play Japanese games, and become a weeaboo
On my part, it became a prerequisite that I memorize the Japanese alphabet first, at least, before anything else. Though my original intent in memorizing hiragana and katakana way back elementary grade 5 was no other than to impress my crush and to follow anime songs LOL.
The next issue of Shugo Chara won’t be out till April, so here’s this little extra chapter from last month’s issue, while we all wait for that exciting Amuto-filled chapter :3
Ok, so I managed to get some free time in the office to finish this post, before I leave~ I shall reply to the comments if I manage to snag a connection during my trip
I’ll save any comments I have on Mao x Kouichi x Yuumi after I watch the last episode of the series (which won’t be until next week coz I wasn’t able to bring my copy of the last KimiKiss episode with me T__T), as it will highly depend on what the outcome of this love polygon will be. For now, since we all know the glorious Asuka has been sealed a bittersweet ending, I’ll be showing how things would’ve went for her, if she was fated to have a happy ending. I’ll be providing snapshots of the second volume of the KimiKiss ~various heroines~ manga on this one, the Kouichi x Asuka arc.
The manga is just pure fluff, more ecchi and sweet (it’s a little bit contradicting I know), so much unlike the anime. While I applaud Kasai for successfully transforming the KimiKiss heroines into 3D realistic characters, it also became detrimental in that some of them became flawed and unlikeable, especially Mao and Kouichi.
So here’s this Asuka-centric post, for those who want to take a break from the serious drama of the KimiKiss anime, or those who want to see the alternate happy ending with Asuka x Kouichi
While our hamster chef is still deployed and busy in Japan, she managed to grant me yet another one of my wishes (yes she’s my genie hamster! X3), a set of Shugo Chara cards, with the Amu x Ikuto card I was hoping for!!! This caught me by surprise coz she initially told me the card I wanted wasn’t in the pack she bought. teehee~
She’s one lucky hamster, considering she got this special card despite a 1/30 probability
Ok, this will be short and incoherent, because I still can’t believe all that has happened in this episode. All that’s in my mind right now is “Could this be IT?! The Shin x Noe ending?! O__O”

It’s all written in Shin’s eyes…!!
Shin finally realized, that the one who believed in him and his dreams, the one who allowed him to fly, is no one else but Noe!! Hiromi knows this herself, though she’s been convincing herself that there’s no way Shinichirou can love anyone else but her.
I was initially going to set aside this post, but my love for Noe made me persist to finish this one.
Until the last episode, I was ready to run up my white flag for a Shin x Noe ending, which resulted to my bittersweet Noe-moing. This episode, however, brought a faint hope of that ending with Shin. Whether this was made to give Noe fans a sense of false hope, we’ll see next week. Damn that cliffhanger! >_<
While people are contending whether Shin’s reminiscence of Noe are simply out of guilt, or a genuine love, I’ll express my opinion about the latter’s possibility.
Saiunkoku season 2 has come to a close, yet I’m still stuck in the time warp of yesteryears~ I haven’t even got past the halfway mark of watching and blogging it. If you hadn’t figured out by now, I suffered from a Saiunkoku burnout months ago, primarily due to my so-called Saiunkoku passion and patriotism. With the lack of subs for the series, I exerted much effort to write uber detailed lengthy narratives for each episode, and God knows how that led to my own downfall.
