Macross Frontier


I caught a cold the other day and still sick in bed right now T w T I'm not also allowed to do 
things and ordered to just stay in bed and get some plenty of rest. (-_\) Thank Goodness 
it's almost vacation time *sigh*. To my boredom, i decided to watch Macross Frontier since 
i've been watching Mameguch' live perfs at youtube and seems like her popular songs are 
from this anime, i gave it a try.. Well, to tell you guys honestly *sigh* My lame reason for 
watching this series is just about my plain curiosity on who's really the really real main character
 and why there are girls singing? LOL. Ever since i became an admin to a certain cosplay page, 
whenever i'm searching for cosplay pictures to post.. I always stumble to Macross F.'s cosplays, 
seems like this one is pretty popular to cosplayers, especially Sheryl Nome's character. There's 
a lot of Ranka Lee cosplay as well and not to mention, also my fave girl : 3 This is all the reason 
why i really wanted to know who is the freaking real main character of this story* ~ 

I just finished watching it yesterday night and i'm so proud of myself because it's a two-cour anime and i've finished it with just 2 days, so YEAH! And to my knowing.. Sheryl nor Ranka is not the lead. They are both the main characters but the real protagonist is Alto Saotome. Obviously he is the one who is responsible to the things i'mma say next : P I'm not really good with mecha anime but i really like Neon EVA tho XD Anyways, there's a huge amount of Romance in the story.. well, actually it's the stir to the plot, honestly.. so let's just talk about that. First of all, i like this anime and i regretted a part of me that i didn't get to see this while it's still airing but there are also things that i can't consider about this series- for example, they left us all hanging with the galactic love triangle in the story! What if you're not gonna watch the film? They didn't consider those things before making the ending.. I mean, the ending was fantastic but the main character, Alto ohime-sama is boating in two rivers.. HNARGH! It makes me cry angry tears because i am not, as you can see?! I am not completely satisfied with that kind of ending. They should have at least.. put a closure to those people's relationship.. I'm actually team Ranka, i wan't her to end up with Alto but it's so clear like the Sunday morning sky that he likes? Sheryl, aRGH fwack!! I mean, if it's really sherylXalto then at least they should have use that than leaving it hanging. Of course, a lot of RankaxAlto shipper will probably explode but it's fucking clear already! Ranka is so falling behind ever since she searched for that vajra thing planet and stuffs, so at least.. just to make everyone not expecting anymore, they should have make that ending a sherylXalto centered.. In that case, fans and viewers will be contented, perhaps. But for me it is more okay than leaving the ending (as you can see in the picture above) hanging like that.. I mean, what's that?! what kind of ending is that?! that's it? we'll just leave it like that? those girls are both chasing that guy? and the guy, it's a-ok for him to be like that? WTH?! I don't wanna ask anymore, it gets me even more angry about that shity topic and way of resolving things.. Remember this, alto-kun! You. Only. Get. One. I am clearly against this two timing thing, grrrr!
Ahahah~ Ooppsie, i got so excited again =='' Alas, the songs are so amazing.. I am forever bias when it comes to Yoko Kanno's composition ; P Eheeh, Even though it seems like i really hated the story.. I actually loved it w w XD Minna! Dakishimete, ginga no ━━☆ hate made!

Friendly Reminder:

*All the fangirls shot are always and forever be shaky and blurry because of the spasms ♥ Mukya~ !
Warning !!: Huge Block of text ahead. . - fufufu : 3  
Late post is late, Tee hee x))









  
Hellow Everyone! I know it's a littie late for me to talk about my Cosplay Mania
experience, but please. . Let me tell you about my feels! Sorry for the super lateness *peace out*

So, Cosplay Mania happened last Oct. 5-6 and next year it will be Oct. 4-5, which is always Saturday and Sunday and also Finals of almost every college student here in the Philippines ; D so YEAH! Great way of blocking some schedules. However, the cosmania organizers and staffs still made a flawless job for making it a huge success despite of these students busy scheds. . ; P Well, before everything else i would like to thank and congratulate the event organizers and staffs for bringing a beautiful-chaos event to success! \(^ w ^)/ And for making it worthy to attend and enjoyable for every age~ Congratulations everyone! XD, and on the other hand we are hoping that you could give us an even more amazing and special Cosplay Mania for the next years to come! Keep up the good work~ Otsukaresama deshita \(+w+\)

You guys probably still remember about the premium pass ticket, right? Well, since it's a great chance to see Reika in person, i bought it for realsies! Can't be helped~ It's like a golden ticket to the chocolate factory : 3 freaking  limited and only few lucky people will experience the awesomeness *p*  Perhaps i don't sound like a huge fan of Reika to you but i am! I'm just not the type of person who's going to scream every letter of her name just to be noticed that i'm also a fan...

Anyways, cosplay is one of my first love in my otaku experience, before i started cosplaying i am a huge fan of cosplay first ~( ̄︶ ̄)~ . . That's why it was really a pleasure to meet one of my cosplay idol, Reika-sama! Oh my God! Even though some parts of my day at the event was very odd and not pleasing, seeing, hugging and talking to her is the highest point of my bliss on that day! I really could never ask for more heheh. It's just. . she's so awesome and handsome and pretty and handsome and pretty-handsome! *laughs* Of course you guys already know that but i assure you that Reika-sama is 100% prettier in person, she needs no edit XD Well, she's not just handsome-pretty, she's also super humble to everyone ; 3 even  to people who's not a fan of her. 

When it's my turn to have a photo session with her, i told her immediately while hugging her that she's was so pretty-ful and i'm a huge fan! then she gave me her very kawaii giggle and replied (in jap.).. "Thank you very much! I'm so glad to hear that : )." while  smiling looking at me. Kya~! you might wonder how did i understand her.. of course there's also an interpreter at her meet and greet session but her interpreter is too busy guiding the next people who will have their own photo session with her.. so we are just like, whispering-talking to each other eheheheh.. and I am pretty much good at understanding Japanese language because of my seiyuu fandom. . . all thanks to that (\/) I became quite good at this field. X) Before the official photographer took the second photo.. I asked her if she's tired already (in jap.), and replied while giggling again "Hai! demo chotto dake desu. Everyone seems to be having so much fun that's why i'm trying my best to greet everyone.. I'm really really grateful to everyone here in the Philippines, especially to you guys who waited and attended this session." and i didn't regret how my fujoshi reflexes acted that day.. I got to hugged her the second time then the second photo was taken. Lastly the 3rd photo was over and i'm gonna say bye-bye to her, but i made sure to let her know (for the sake of her fans who didn't had the chance to see her and truly hoping for her magical comeback) bits and pieces of details that we really really want her to keep coming back here in the Phil.. . and i also added Reika-sama, また今度フィリピンでお会いしましょう!!!and she replied.. "Yes! by all means."then she hugged meEEEE!!! She's the one who initiated the hUG! Hahahah! I am so happy i even beso-beso her (like as if we're best friends or something ; P) before i say goodbye to her for realsies. . (ɔˆ ³(ˆ⌣ˆc) Those unbelievable yet real speed of light moments will obviously last and will never fade easily because i'm definitely having a reika hangover until this year end, lolz! I can't help it, she's a wonderful person.. she will leave you feels like /you wanted to be friends with her for realz but too bad she's just too famous to be friends with you/ kind of feeling TwT *creys* But anyways, even so. . . reika-sama is truly an amazing person and she's very happy to meet all fellow fangirls, cosplayers, otaku in this world v(눈_눈) so stay genki ! ! OH And take note, i'm not just the only one.. even my family who can't believe that spend so much just to see her in person is having their own reika hangover too. Hahahah.

Even though i also entered the main cosplay mania event i only talk about reika-sama, i'm such an orz, lol ; P Because she's the most awesome human-rivaille i've seen so far and she's so handsome-pretty! Just seeing her in person absolutely brightens my day, even without those other cosmania parts, hahah! It was more than worth it ♥ //i am not one bit sorry for not containing all these overflowing feels, Hahahah.

Cosplay Mania'13 Day 1 shoutout ~
BAD parts: 
- i came quite early (9:45 AM) just right in time they are letting people enter the event but then i got trolled so much at the schedule of my meet and greet, thought i will not see reika because staffs are saying the meet and greet is going on already and they are not letting late comers in... I'm so nearly going to cry at that time and my mom was like to the guards "why is that?! can you do something about it?" and the guards said they are just following orders blah.. blah.. blah.. just go to the information and file your complaints and stuffs.. then i rushed to the information and the girl there said "who's meet and greet is that?" and i told her "Reika." then she replied "2:00 pm, don't be late." from there.. i feel so much relieved ~ 

- Then i go back at the main cosmania event and said to those volunteers who made my mind go insane.. "Mga kuya, yung kay kaname(or orochi x, lol i dunno really.. my mind's a mess that time) naman po na meet and greet yung tinutukoy niyo eh. Dios mio! pina-kaba niyo ako.*sigh* " and they apologized to me after and i was like.. "no, it's alright, don't sweat it!" even though in my mind.. i hope you guys ask first before assuming first coz you might wanna consider the person who you will toxic at that very busy and crowded day. It was vexing, really.. =_=

- I actually have a costume but due to time conflict.. I had to go back with my normal clothes +o+

- I'm at the line of Reika-sama's meet and greet (2:00 PM), i came right in time just like what the girl said at the information, but the staffs in there said if your ticket has a sign at the back you are for 2nd session not for this one. And im totally like.. "Holy Fuck people, you're kidding me right!?" just in my mind tho~ I just asked those staffs if what time is that second session and they said.. "mga 4:30 po ma'am pero mas maganda kung mga 4:00 pa lang nakapila na kayo dito." and i just plainly replied.. okay, got it. /flies   

- i didn't use my full access pass that much because i'm dead waiting for my meet and greet session, because i am so scared i might missed it QwQ

- While i'm videoing reika-sama during her 2nd meet and greet session.. badluck, na card full QwQ So i high speedly deleted all the goddamn jokey joke pics that i have already put in my PC and not to mention a really old shots already (probably taken those months and months ago). . 

GOOD parts:
- To sum it all up ~ 80% of cosplayers in Cosmania'13 day 1 are wearing nothing but the ever fabulous shingeki no kyojin costume and the event turned into a beautiful snk chaos, which gave a lot of pips idea to call it snk mania than the real title of the event XD

- I met REIKA-SAMA! Hahahah ♥ glomped her 3x, talk to her for a while, Beso-BESO !!

- Saw Kaname, Pinky Lu Xun, Orochi X at the main stage. . Kyaa-p!! 

- Saw old faces from the cosplay community and i got to hang out with them for a moment.

- Saw Jin (behindinfinity)-sama and her large group of snk and i got to take a picture (tho it's kinda blurry and i didn't get a good spot so it's only the side and she's the only one looking (and Kat?) at my cam *sobs huhuhu *) of them! So FUN XD

- This cosmania is waaaaaaaaaaaaay so much fun than past events.. I has so much fun fangirling over my fandoms and i'm so glad i got to see a respectable amount of fanservice and stuffs there too. Hahaha!

Cosplay Mania'13 Day 2 shoutout ~

- To sum day 2 all up. . It's gotta be nothing but . . 
"No Homo!" ..... "No Life.".. by Reika-Heicho and Kaname XD

- Saw Goldy's face (although he's wearing shades) and he's really a funny guy : 3

- hints` ~ Reika-sama's Q&A has no clever questions, it's more fun in the meet and greet..
Even the screamers wouldn't have a single clue on what kind of stuffs happened and asked on the meeting room and those stuffs are much more worth screaming, kyaha!   

- Thanks to all those awesome TORCH finalist and those who gave lots of BL~hints, Let's Party! 

-  Screamers! //SCREAMING! Screaming here and there! 

- I had so much fan fangirling it all out ♥ Thanks for this fun event.. till` next year! v(*w*)

Silver Spoon x Kogure Shashinkan

 I'm not a fan of sad shows but here I am.. Already done with two sad shows
I'm watching alongside with Free and SnK before they hit the finale. It's a summer
anime as well so of course it will have it's own end too. . And that is Gin no Saji 
(i prefer calling it on its alternative name tho) for all you guys to know! X)


Gin no Saji is actually one of the animes I listed to "I want to watch for the 
Summer season'13" because Hiromu Arakawa is the author (that's an added
 appeal) and it's really different from her other shounen works like FMA to be 
precise, XD but I didn't intend to watch it right away literally.. Anyways, here 
we are already at the end, I must say it has the most laid back ending of all. It 
almost look like an ordinary ep, but the thing that they played the very cute end 
theme on its 18 (or around 18) mins. already is something an anime with its 
finale can only do ; P This show is probably not everyone's cup of tea but for me 
it made really such an impact and sometimes leaves me with teary eyed almost 
every ep. I guess, whether the animal is a pet or farm animal, when it's going to die 
i must say that's really sad and i'm weak with those kind of stuffs. I so relate to 
the main character on how much he cares for the animal in the farm. I've been 
a vegetarian for 3 yrs or so.. but being a vegan made my body weak in protein 
to the point that I even got admitted to the hospital >': then on.. mom decides 
to go back to normal way of eating so it won't happen again. Anyways, I don't 
really wanna spoil you guys the stuffs around the anime especially when you 
haven't watch it yet, but you will know what i'm talking about if you give it try. 

 
Another thing I love about Silver Spoon is the amazing dubbing of the 
characters. I don't know but it gives the vibe of a high quality sound 
like it's almost a dubbing for an anime movie, No srsly! No kidding with
this one. The way they've done the dubbing is really beautiful! and yes, 
this anime is Slice of Life that's why, maybe.. I like it! 


Also, They have announce it too~ that Silver Spoon will have
a live action already and it's not just a rumor because it will be
in theaters around Spring 2014 \o/ Starring Kento Nakajima as
Hachiken and Alice Hirose as Mikage-chan. 


I'm so looking forward for this adaptation! 


On the other hand, I've been meaning to watch this J-drama 
called Kogure Shashinkan (Kogure's Photo Studio) which is
my fave Kamiki Ryunosuke starred in heheh ; P So I did! It is not 
a ongoing series but what really gets me to watch it is the ghost 
thing happening around the story of it. 


So, the story is basically revolving around the Hanabishi 
family and the people around them. . I'm lazy to do a formal
blogging about this, meh. But i freaking love the show it gives
me the Natsume Yuujinchou vibe on it. I mean, on my personal
feels when i started watching the show and Hana-chan (Kamiki's
character) started solving all these mysteries about the ghost 
pictures and all.. I suddenly think that.. "THIS IS IT! He's gotta be the
live action actor for Natsume Takashi" that kind of thing. He freakingly
fits for natsume's character perfectly! too bad asking for a Book of 
Friends live action is too much because there are some many yokais
there I bet that's going to be difficult, but at least we have Kamiki here
to give you the natsume feels whenever you watch Kogure Shashinkan!

And since I'm lazy to give you a longer and worth to read post..
I'm gonna leave you hanging here! Bye bye, see ya next post!
