One hackneyed phrase I often hear when people talk about romance-themed series is that it’s either “realistic” or “unrealistic”. Of course, White Album is no exception. I mean, in 3 out of 4 White Album posts (and even forum posts) you’ll see these terms overused, may it be in the post itself or in the comments — people defending the series for its realism on one hand, other people complaining about how unrealistic the situations are on the other.

After episode 20, the dearly retarded gets down with the girls of ToraDora for some hurt to hurt talk. This is tongue-in-chick or tongue-in-chic, which ever bad pun works for you.

Ever wondered if Iku and Doujou ever liked something, apart from books, JUSTICE!, and each other (of course)? Well one of the extra chapters in the manga answers just that.

Toradora is one of my favorite running shows right now, the other being Skip Beat!. I love the drama and the mix of crack. After my latest dose of Toradora though (episode 19), I have to ask out of frustration: Why is everybody a bloody martyr!?!
This is not meant to be taken seriously.

Last last Friday was the memorable �Tokyo Tower Day� for me and my officemates. We spent much of our free time after work in the Main observatory (we no longer went to the top floor because we had to pay extra bucks, and it won�t really be worth it unless we had more time in our hands), together with our lucky birthday-celebrant ex-officemate who�s staying in Japan for her post-graduate studies. She�s one lucky dawg because she gets a free pass and a free cake c/o Tokyo Tower, so yay! Anyways, so there we were, five young ladies, kids at heart, decided to go silly and do things people don�t normally do in there.

It’s been a few days since I went to Tokyo for a very short business trip (I’m already back!), and the very first thing my officemates and I did after checking in our hotel: Find a place with lotsa gashapons, because I’ll totally FAIL AT LIFE if I never get to buy even one of ‘em throughout my stay here. I wasn’t sure if we’ll have time to go out and buy stuff on the weekdays after work so we made the most out of our free time. Luckily enough, there was a Yodobashi near our place, which had zomg soo many gashapons! It’s the most gashapons I’ve seen in all my life, though I know very well that other Yodobashi stores has TONS MORE, like the one in Akihabara which I failed to visit because of lack of time (caused by my ’sleeping beauty’ blues), something I’m both regretful and thankful for.

In the words of Seleria, “I’m not sure if i should be insulted or amazed or amused at their marketing strategy”
And in case you’re wondering, I was sane enough to avoid buying this when I saw it in Animate Akihabara. Their jedi mind tricks won’t work on me! Though I can only wonder [...]

Too much dorama from White Album is driving me crazy, so I figured it would be best to take a random little “break”, we all deserve it.

You know there�s something wrong when, before the guy gets down with the lover he�s [supposedly] been missing for months, freshening up in the shower preparing for the Big Event, his mind is wandering elsewhere. Good thing their love making session didn�t push through, otherwise Touya probably would�ve muttered someone else�s name, unconsciously.

Thanks to the recent LOL Korea dorama, almost everyone and their mom most likely checked this out (or are planning to). What a way to pique the interest of people who are supposedly apathetic to this series! All hail Hetalia?!
