I Will Neither Blog Nor Watch Junjou Romantica Ever Again, But…

By usagijen ⋅ October 9, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

…someone else will, in my behalf (if the subs come out, that is), considering that he is the true Junjou Romantica fan (yes you heard me write, he’s a fudanshi ). As such, it’s gonna be from a [slightly] biased POV too. I’m looking forward to reading his posts myself, knowing well that he is a talented writer, and my good friend. The interesting things are yet to come, so watch out for it!

and wow, this is quite a pretty good timing, since someone just decided to troll one of my JR posts to proclaim it as the BEST YAOI SHOW, EVAR.

EDIT: It seems that people didn’t quite get what I said, so here’s the simplified version: I recruited my officemate to become a part-time chef and write about Junjou Romantica, considering that he’s a real fan of the show. As such, it’s a totally biased (for) POV, unlike mine which is more on the dark side lol.

So vague. I’ll be blogging the second season as well, ideally.

It really depends on if you’re into that sort of thing though. Junjou Romantica is the best compared to other BL shows (it’s a lot better done than Graviation, I can tell you that). I enjoyed watching the romance in that more than I do with shoujo. But why do you keep writing about the show if you don’t even like it? It’s giving me the impression that you’re about to join the mass of bloggers that write hate posts to fluff their own ego. It could just be my imagination. Who knows, staying up until 3am everyday might be having an effect on me.

~~It’s hard to watch your fave seiyuu voicing in sex scenes too ya know..*___*;; I couldn’t..I just couldn’t…~~

Umm lol wow and I thought I was the only one getting “someone else” to blog this show for me

@Nagato: and I cleared it up now

@Jayers: You terribly misunderstood me, my dear. The writer I’m about to recruit (or I’ve already recruited into the blog) is a real JR fan, and he totally love it to bits. I don’t really see much point in blogging shows you hate, especially on an episodic basis.

@kuzon234ray: ahh yeah, you’ll be really happy to hear what he has to say about the series haha.

@Wija-chan: loool, I understand what you mean about not wanting to hear the seiyuus in *those* situations You need to be really open-minded for you to stand watching JR, more so enjoy it.

@Hinano: Is that Taiyaki, I wonder? Though this person I ‘recruited’ is gonna join our blog crew, haha.

I thought it was Shin at first. But wait, he still is doing it.

i’m still watching it! ^^ but i’m not sure if i’ll be blogging it. probably if there’s nothing else to watch and blog about.

I’ll blog for all those who doesn’t want to. I love Junjou Romantica. Yay it’s back!!!

wow you guys can just say they are having sex its not a bad word

Posted by Sunako-chan | October 13, 2008, 1:26 pm
@Panther: Is he?? Oh well, silly Shin nonetheless.

@biankita: I highly doubt you’ll run out of things to watch and blog in the Fall lineup, it’ll boil down to how much priority you’re going to give JR

@Crazyanimegyrl: lol, well as I’ve said, my friend is going to blog about it, so you can just sit back and relax!

@Sunako-chan: damn straight! hehe.

I’m actually interested to see a male perspective on the show that comes from a guy who actually likes it.

I just watched the first part of the episode 2 of the 1st season like a few minutes ago. I was forced by an acquaintance to watch it. x’3
It was hilarious..
but I still dunno if I wanna watch it all.
I’d have to think it twice, thrice…(whatever’s after thrice..xD) and a lot LOT more decision making..xD
I might MIGHT…just MIGHT try watching it..”MIGHT” if I ever felt like it.
That is “IF” I ever felt like it. x’D
If that happens..I’ll announce it to the world. (with the exception of my parents of course..xD) -laughs-

@A Day Without Me: My friend is eager to rave about it himself, so yeah, look forward to it :3

@Wija-chan: lol, don’t force yourself if you don’t want to! You’ll be a masochist if you do that

Posted by usagijen | October 16, 2008, 8:04 pm
LMFAO! A masochist?!
That’s the first!
No no, I’m not gonna force myself. :’p
Like I said, if I actually felt like watching it. (I mean, I’ve read yaoi manga before, why not anime? ~~Maybe because you can actually hear them voicing the characters? That’s why?! ROFLCOPTER!~~)
That’s why when that time comes and I did watch this series in whole, I’ll prolly make a short blog entry about it.
