Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai (Unfinished)

This series is amazing in all sorts of ways.

All. Sorts. of ways.

I look forward to the anime coming out this fall!

I just thought this article was sort of amusing because it reminded me of my sister and my mom. :V

I

I thought I heard this song before but maybe I didn't like it that much the first time around. Now I'm more fond of the piano playing in this song. Well I think its overall not that bad of a song in the first place. Yay GUMI!

Alice In Musicland

The first VOCALOID Musical.

This... is all sorts of amazing. I can't describe it, I'm speechless.

恋色メッセージ

This is one of those songs where there might not be much merit but its worth watching anyway because ITS CUTE!

(The title is something like color-changing message)

Ai Kotoba (Piano Version)

BECAUSE THIS SONG IS SO GREAT IT NEEDS TO HAVE AS MANY VERSIONS AS POSSIBLE.

Honestly I thought at first that a girl would be singing this :V Well fine, guys are fine too. However as I started getting into the song I realize the way they played out this version, its way too serious than what it's originally supposed to be. I was imagining Ai Kotoba to be a lot more playful and fun... this one is just serious "I LOVE YOU" type. Well its not bad, though.

Regardless, I just feel like saying this feels EPIC even though I don't think its too important... right now anyway...

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, but this time not me)

Man Kazu at the end is totally like "OHSHI OHSHIOHSHIOHSHI!!!!

Best ending match to a fighting game I've ever seen in a while.

夢と葉桜

Another decent miku song for the blog. Very traditional and simple Japanese style.

Something about dreams and leaves in the title. Yes this is a very simple review of a very simple song.

（Θ）ALYSS

This is such a beautiful song in deceptive cadance. Usually I'm not a big fan of deceptive cadance/minor songs because they sound odd to me but this one is so much fun and upbeat! It's like, playing around in a carnival!!! :D

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 6)

I tried Score Attack mode today, thinking it was some sort of "endless" mode where you fight CPUs over and over again.

Turns out it was just another "boss" mode... with the ending being Parace...

OMG WTF PARACE INSTANT CROSSUPS WITH RIDICULOUS COVERAGE AND INSTANT STARTUP AND NO DELAY ATTACKS

ITS KANNA ALL OVER AGAIN, WITHOUT EVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO GRAB

Not only that every time when I finally get a hit off her and start comboing she just bursts out and its like :V

Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko (Unfinished, part 2)

ARE YOU SERIOUS FFFFFFFFF

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 5)

I can't help but say, whenever I do my made-up Maori BnB combo...

I keep thinking at the end...

JUST...

J-J-JAM IT IN!!

...:V orz btw I didn't actually play today. << as if anyone cares. :V

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 4)

Eko is such a troll character, both for the user and the opponent. I can't figure out any decent working combos with her, well the wiki provided some. She's pretty funny though. :V And does stupid high damage. Wat. :V

EDIT: YEAAAAAA I DID (one of) MAORI'S THREE HIT SUPER YEAAAAAA now time to figure out how to do the "all at once" super. :/

Snails and Birds

http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/14048754

This is actually quite interesting. Would this be considered communism? Or Mutualism? I'm guessing communism since the bird doesn't realy get any benefit. Doesn't really seem parasitic either. Still, pretty fun and interesting.

クワガタにチョップしたらタイムスリップした

MOAR AMAZING GUMI SONGS

I think this one would be more amazing if I knew what the lyrics were saying. At least ths pictures were pretty and nice. :V

So I think I saw this somewhere and it has to do with stagbeetles and time slipping. Right. according to youtube, "Time-Warped After Chopping My Stag Beetle".

EDIT: Found lyrics here: http://vgboy.dabomstew.com/lyrics.php Man, actually watching the video, I think I would feel really sad watching myself die... not only that, probably scared too. The video itself is silly but that concept in itself seems highly philosophical and makes you worried. I mean come on, you now know you only have 50 years to live? (Well ok, "only" is probably a bad word considering she probably has lived about 16 years so far). Nevertheless... its both fascinating and scary at the same time.

Like a lot of things in life!

嗚呼、素晴らしきニャン生

I'm not even going to try that title :V yes I'm pathetic.

This is a rather cute video about two types of cats, one stray and one house. The song in itself is alright (depending on tastes some might like it, its not particular to mine though) however the video (and in particular, GUMI) is so very cute. Truly just another moeblob piece of work that's enjoyable to watch.

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 3)

WHAT THE HELL IS WITH FENRIR AND HIS UNBLOCKABLE SUPER. NOT ONLY THAT ITS STUPID FAST SO I CAN'T JUMP OUT IN TIME. FFFFFFFFF

So being a cheapskate I set the skill level to 1 and beat story mode just so I can see the ending(s). :V

EDIT Side note: "Maori is a great zoning character" << and I use her for rushdown. MAN, I'M A GENIUS

Hmm. I'm not sure what to say about this. Maybe Tony's favorite phrase sums it up quite nicely:

"This is amazing, in a way"

Space Invaders

http://games.slashdot.org/story/11/07/09/1941230/emSpace-Invadersem-The-Movie

Clearly if they're going to make a movie, it needs to be this.

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 2)

Ok I took a look at all the characters and tested them out (as well as a few arcanas). My general evaluation:

-The very first blonde-haired girl on the top right (the one that summons the dark swords) is the absolute easiest character for me to use. Her moves are very intuitive and I can't see how anyone could go wrong with her.

-The magician girl is amazingly awesome!! Too bad I'm not fond of her hairstyle, which is like a boy's hair (and can easily be mistaken as a boy) :(. Also her moves are ridiculous, are you serious, different activation depending on what cards you lay out? :V But in spite of all that I think she's my second favorite now and I'd probably learn her after the Miko girl.

-Speaking of the magician her Mirror Arcana IS SO COOL. It looks SO TERRIBLE TO USE (since it depends on the opponent you're fighting) but it looks SO AMAZING. I feel like I want to use that arcana now. :V

-that demon sister girl scares me.

-mecha china fighter is kind of interesting :V but she seems pretty slow. And lol at the scientist girl nade-nadeing her before the battle. :V

-That one girl with a dog is like.. playing Kano from EFZ. with a dog. :V

-Angel loli is cute but she's such a jerk :V not as much as the swimsuit blob, but still.

-on a similar(?) note I can see how the love girl is such a ditz and can be really annoying in battle. "LOVE PUNCH" wtf

-Conclusion: Mikos are the best! :V hurray for my scrubby 10 hit combo. That uses a dash cancel. :V

Speaking of dash cancels, it looks like they merged ICs with the super bar in this game, and at the same time turned the IC into dash. Well, apparently you can also cancel using the extend force button; that's probably for situations where you don't launch your opponent 50 feet into the air. The launchers seem to let you have stun time long enough so that you can dash cancel and continue comboing them in the air, which is really cool. I think I may develop a habit similar to what I do in efz, where I rarely use the bar and instead use it almost all the time for cancelling and extending my combos. :V

Arcana Heart 3 (Failing, part 1)

I CAN'T DO THIS MIKO'S 3 PART SUPER

Man I'm such a loser. :V

AX Pictures

Mobile phones mean Mobile pictures!

Ok that didn't make sense. I only took 4 pictures overall because I'm a loser.

Pics 1 and 2: miku concert line. I was only amused because they completely blocked the road in front of them (well the road was closed down anyway :V). As seen from the second pic it was more like a square cluster than a single line.

Pic 3: lots of morning rescue. Its kind of silly because only gg fansubs included that commercial and it had nothing to do with anime, but people wanted to cosplay anyway.

Pic 4: GUMI tan!!

ライトラグ

(The title... Right Rag? Well that seems like an odd title...)

A DECO27 song. This song's melody and song doesn't seem very catchy, but the video is very good and high quality. The voice is also very nice. However, as I said, the song itself just doesn't seem very catchy, so at least for me it doesn't seem like it will catch on. Maybe its because it doesn't really have a easy-flow melody to sing along? Or rather, the tone of the song changes when it reaches the chorus...

Well its not bad, after all its DECO27, but we'll see how well it can catch on.

Miku Concert

Concert Review, Mobile Version!

1. Hologram thing didn't look that great if miku moved further away from you, but I guess that's the limitation of their technology. Their positioning of miku was pretty good though.

2. I didn't know about 4 out of all the songs they played at the concert. Having like more than half of the songs from diva 2nd helped.

3. Clover Club: first song I was surprised they played.

4. Popipo: tony's purpose is fulfilled.

5. Romeo and cinderella: 見えない...

6. Rin, Meltdown: I usually sing along to these songs since no one can hear me, but never for meltdown. Fffff high notes

7. Luka, Let's be friends: あ、見た。

8. World's End Dancehall: Dark Horse song of the concert. In English too! Lol everyone was like" durr I don't know this song" oh you audience guys :V

9. FFFFFFFFF SPICA

10. FFFFFFFFFF AI KOTOBA DECO27 BANZAI

11. The last two comments made the concert worth going.

12. Btw all costumes came from diva 2nd. :V

pianissimo

Looks like I missed this neat song that was on nico ranks recently. There hasn't been many tranquil songs as of late I believe (well, ones I like anyway), so this one is a nice breather in many ways. Obviously since the title is "pianissimo" (to anyone with musical knowledge) one can expect this song to be a rather soft and melodic song, which does exactly as it says. It's probably a keeper in my library. :V

ロマンちっくブレイカー

Ok, I can say stuff like the animation is cute, the music is 80ish but ok, but what I REALLY want to say is...
