Me Gusta la Música Japonesa, Tíos.

That's right. Spanish title, guys. For those of you who cannot speak Spanish, it says, "I like Japanese music, dudes," and it speaks the truth. I am getting into Japanese music a lot this year. Thanks to anime and Gojo. About two years ago, Tenuto Tuo would try and play foreign music to me and I'd be all, "I don't really like it... cause I can't understand it." Now Mr Tuo and Miss Gojo have gotten me into JPop/JRock/Europop :)   I don't even care if I have no clue what they're singing about. I can hear the emotion in their voices, very often. I love their voices. I love the occasional time when I understand a word (OK, basically, I know when they say, "thank you" in a song). I love the music. I find myself dancing and humming and making weird noises that might sound like the words. It's good fun.

So, today is supposed to be Physics Day. My English Extension teacher hasn't gotten back to me about my draft, so I can't work on it. Well, that's a lie. I CAN work on it, but I really don't know what to do without his assistance. I doubt I'll know what to do WITH his assistance either, but whatever. It's Physics Day. It's not going so well. I am... very confused. Mmm, it's not going so well. And it's due Thursday. You know what else is due Thursday? That English Extension assignment I can't do. I will fail. Or get something in the C range, for sure. For both assignments. Wait. No, stop. No stressing! CALM, GIRL!

*cough* Moving on. I started watching Toradora! yesterday. Because that was smart. Anyway, I love it. I've only watched two episodes, but it's exactly the kind of anime I was looking for. BST FTW, guys. Basically, the main guy and chick like two other people. They are helping each other get with their respective people. But, obviously, they'll end up falling for each other. N'aww. It's good.

Now, yesterday I told y'all I was going to watch an episode of Lovely Complex. Mmm, yeah. About that... I watched episode 1... and did not like it much. The main chick's voice was very annoying. The animation was meh. The premise behind the show was still dumb. Tall girl and short guy. For some reason their height is a big deal. They both fell for people, tried to get those people, gave up on those people and let them be together all in one episode. No idea where the plot would go for the next 23 or so episodes. Plus, neither of the male characters where even slightly fangirl worthy. So, I gave up after one episode.

Maybe it would get better, but an anime really has to grab me pretty early on or I won't continue watching it. I remember the first time I watched Special A, when I was an Anime Noob. I thought it was weird. Very weird. I watched one episode and then, I believe I found Fruits Basket. I don't know what made me go back to Special A, but I'm glad I did, because I loved it. Something must have grabbed me.

I watched episode 1 of Ouran High School Host Club a couple of months ago, because it is SO popular and I kept reading about it. It didn't grab me, strangely. I should probably watch the sub instead of the dub that I watched. I just found it kinda strange and the voices annoyed me and I didn't really like the animation. I got kinda bored and I didn't find ANY of the MANY guys fangirl worthy. Mm, this is all quite an unpopular opinion, I'm sure, as many people who like the shoujo kinda things I watch, love this show... Oh well. I'll try it again sometime.

But for now, Toradora! I really like it. Definitely my kinda thing. These coming holidays I would like to finish both Toradora! and Durarara!! It's my plan. I doubt I'll finish them both, but I must finish one and watch more of the other. I have a feeling I'll finish Toradora! first.

Also, I really like the main guy. He is really quite cool. As is his pet parrot.

It Sucked your Mum

I am doing several quizzes to see which character I am most like out of several different shows. I shall share my results here, guys! Mainly cause I felt like blogging and had nothing else to say. So, yeah.

Q. Which Fruits Basket Character Are You?
A. KYO. Often disgruntled and easily annoyed, you often wonder why people can't just shut up! You act cold and mean to those around you, but that's only what's on the outside. All you really want is someone who cares.
-Hehe... I didn't even answer it biasly, true. You could tell which answers would lead to which character, but I just chose the funny ones.. Which happened to be the obviously Kyo ones.

Ooooh, they're getting some Spanish guy in for Masterchef's masterclass... To teach them Spanish food. OM NOM NOM. His name's Miguel and he said, "Hole chickas." I like this guy. He's funny. And he's cooking paella.

Oh my gosh. This Miguel guy is hilarious. I love him. And his accent is pretty dang cool. Just sayin'. Anyway...

Q. Which Kaichou wa Maid-Sama Character Are You?
A. Misaki Ayuzawa. You are Misaki Ayuzawa,the heroine of the anime and the first female student council of Seika High.You have a bad attitude when it comes to guys.You are completely hiding your feelings from a so-good looking guy.Try not to hide it anymore,okay?
-Hah. Yeah. THAT'S realistic. That was a dumb quiz. Three questions. Oh well, I like Misaki. I can deal. 


GUYS. Spanish chef was having a kinda steamy moment with one of my favourite chicks on Masterchef and they were kinda flirting and he was all, "This getting hot," half jokingly. Pretty sure I've decided on my favourite chef. 


Q. Which Glee Character Are You?
A. Finn. You're a nice person and you mean well, but sometimes your friends feel left out by your busy schedule. Stop trying to stretch yourself so far and figure out what you want. 
-Finn? Really? Ew. Lame. That quiz was lame too... I didn't really have an answer for like, any questions. LOL FINN.


Just sayin' that I think one of the Masterchef contestants has a bit of a guy crush on this Miguel guy. He is giving him so admiring looks, man. 


Guuuuuuyyyyyyyssssssssss, I love this guy's accent. *cough*stop thinking about cool Spanish accents*
He rolled his 'r's when saying "crusty rice". OK, that paella he cooked looks really yummy. 


OH NO. HE'S LEAVING! I'm sad now. Bye bye, Miguel. 


Q. Which Death Note Character Are You?
A. L. Calm, thoughtful, misunderstood, determined, confident, kind-hearted, different. 
- Oh, hell yes! Or, should I say L YES. 


Q. Which Special A Character Are You?
A. Akira Toudou. Sweet and scary. You like to make things that everyone can appreciate ad is not contented if you can't do it.
-Cool beans. I like her. I am scary, so it's kinda accurate.


Gotta go out to get my mum from the airport now! Whoops.

Anime: My Anti-Drug. Because When You're Addicted To Anime, You Can't Afford No Drugs.

I am in a really big anime mood right now. Oh, and Total Drama, heh. But anyway, anime. I have found this 30 Day Anime Challenge and have decided to do it all now. Mainly because I really felt like blogging but couldn't think of anything to write about...
Day 1 - Very first anime
- Death Note. First anime I ever fully watched. Sure, I might have seen tiny bits of Pokemon or whatever, but it's the only anime I'd properly watched. Ah, if only I knew how my life would be changed...

Day 2 - Favorite anime You’ve watched so far
- If you've read anything I've posted or spent well, any time with me, you'd probably know the answer. Fruits Basket :)  Yeah, it's my favourite, indeed. It's had the biggest impact on me, that's for sure, and I'll always love it. 
Day 3 - Your anime crush 

- Hahaha. I like how it says that as if I only have one. Well, previous posts have my lists of anime crushes, so I'll put my all-time number one here. Kyo Sohma, guys. 
Don't be sad, Kyo...  :)

Day 4 - Anime you’re ashamed you enjoyed 

- I'm not really ashamed I enjoyed anime animes. If anything, I'd have to say La Corda D'Oro, because it turns out quite a few people didn't like it and there were things about it I didn't like, but I still got addicted. I'm not really ashamed though.. 
Day 5 - Anime character you feel you are most like (or wish you were) 

- I feel like I'm a bit of a mixture of Kyo and Akito Sohma from Fruits Basket. I'd like to be Ayuzawa Misaki from Kaichou wa Maid-Sama because I like her feistiness and determination and the fact that she always works hard. And, besides, she gets Usui ;P
Day 6 - Most annoying anime character 

- Momiji Sohma. This is definitely an unpopular opinion as he is dearly loved by many Fruits Basket fans, but hated by me. 
Pretty sure he's crying because Kyo bashed him up a bit... Go Kyo!

Day 7 - Favorite anime couple 

- Hm. I guess I won't put KyoxTohru here, as they don't become a couple in the anime... Although, I do love their shipping in the anime. I would have to say, however, MisakixUsui. They are one awesome couple. They are called a Super Human Tag Team in the show and I just love them.
BST, much?
Day 8 - Most epic scene ever 
- Hm. It's a tie between Episode 25 of Death Note, when L dies and the final episode of Death Note, when all is revealed and Light loses. Probably the last episode. Man, I was on the edge of my seat.

Day 9 - Saddest anime scene 

- Episode 8 of Fruits Basket. Hatori's backstory. Tears galore. 
Day 10 - Favorite slice of life anime
- I haven't watched many slice of life. Actually, I think the only one I've watched is Honey and Clover and I've only watched like, 7 episodes... 

Day 11 - Favorite mech series

- I had to look up what a mech series is and I have watched none. Not planning on watching any either... 
Day 12 - An ecchi picture from your favorite series 
- Yeah. So, I am not really into ecchi so I has no pictures. 

Day 13 - Cosplay of your ‘waifu’ or Husbando’
- I don't even get this one.  

Day 14 - current (or most recent) anime wallpaper 
- Well, the one I have right now is:
But my last one, which actually worked as a wallpaper was this: 

Both made myself :)


Day 15 - Post a cute Neko-girl
- Yeah. I know none.  Wait, I found a picture that isn't really neko-girl but it kinda is...


Day 16 - post a kigurumi cosplay of your favorite anime character 

- I looked, but could not find any... Kigurumi cosplay is.. interesting though..
Day 17 - Favorite tsundere 

- Ah, tsunderes. Ayuzawa Misaki from Maid-Sama. Or Kagura Sohma from Fruits Basket. 
Day 18 - Something moe 

- I love these guys. Not really sure if it is "moe" but the Google Image caption said so :P

Day 19 - Mandatory swimsuit post 

Competitive, much?
Day 20 - Favorite shoujo anime 

- Uh, Fruits Basket. 
Day 21 - Best yandere character
- Well, by reading the TVTropes page, I was sure Kagura Sohma would be a yandere but she was not in the examples. Hm. Akito Sohma was, though. So, I say Akito and Kagura, whether she actually is one or not :P 

Day 22 - Favorite boy’s love couple (or yuri couple, if you don’t like that sort of thing) 

- Yeah... I'm not into boy's love or yuri, sorry. 
Day 23 - Anime you think had the best, or most intrigueing art 
- Um. Probably Death Note. It had the most realistic anime art I'd ever seen and, seeing as though it was my first anime (the one that stopped me thinking anime was stupid) it kinda showed me that my view of anime art wasn't all there was. 

Day 24 - Favorite anime hero or heroine 

- Hm. Hero... Probably Usui Takumi. He is pretty dang heroic. Or L. 
Day 25 - Best anime villian

- Akito Sohma. I mean, many fans and characters do see him as a villainous type, but he's one of my favourites. 
Day 26 - Your favorite harem anime 

- Wikipedia cast Fruits Basket as a harem anime, but I wouldn't have thought so. Well, I've only watched two harem animes, La Corda D'Oro (I mean, dude. She hangs with 5 guys and they all fall in love with her) and Kanon, but I haven't seen much of it. The harem side of La Corda D'Oro kinda annoyed me but I kinda liked it in Kanon. Even though I couldn't decide who I shipped him with... 
Day 27 - Favorite anime opening theme song 

- Very close between InuYasha and Death Note... 
Day 28 - Favorite pokemon
- I never really watched Pokemon and don't know all that much about it, but I've always had a soft spot for Squirtle.
 

Day 29 - Favorite school uniform
- Special A. It's about time that anime gets a mention in here... 
Very cool jackets and yellow ties. 

Day 30 - Anime character you want to cosplay
- I am actually planning on cosplaying as Akito Sohma next year as my very first cosplay ever. 
OMG. I JUST FOUND A 20 DAY FRUITS BASKET CHALLENGE. OM NOM NOM.
