Happy New Year's Eve 2013

Such a surreal feeling that this blog will soon be 10 years old.

It has been my companion for so long. What's more, I've been loyal all these years despite having created other blog accounts like LJ, Wordpress, even Tumblr (which I only reblog. Once in a blue moon, I post a cosplay picture or two, but that's it.).

Tumblr-kun, this is Blogger, your senpai.

And many years down the road, this blog will continue to accompany me and see me through my ups and downs. My blog, and my journals. Full of fangirling, fanboying, ranting and raving, laughter, tears, joy, sadness, anger, disappointment.

Life of a lone wolf.

Life of a hikki.

Life of someone who is fascinated by the wonders of the universe.

=====

I've been tagged in several Thank You posts on FB, and I am grateful as well for remembering me. I won't post one because I'm at a loss as to what to write.

2013 was a colourful year. The first time I encountered so much shit, so much emotional turmoil, witnessed so much drama, that I had actually returned to my inner self for a period of time just so that I could try to salvage what remained of my sanity and self.

So much self-doubt. So much reflection. So much pondering. So much food for thought.

So..unlike myself.

Our friendship was severely tested. But we got through.

Only time will tell what happens in 2014.

Holy crap. They have Rui's Masquerade costume. About $100.

But noooooooo lemme wait and see first OTL Because, I have plans to clear for the year 2014, and my Gokai sabers to make.

Merry Christmas 2013

Finally a Christmas post.

http://u-ren.tumblr.com/post/71084250541/11

Seeing this makes me happier for some reason. Sigh...besides looking at more LOTR posts on tumblr.

Elves. ^^

I wish I can play my Maple, but I still can't log in. Hope the admin replies, or else...

bloody hell....

If being in a relationship means jeopardizing our friendship, or putting your partner as priority and forgoing your friends (even unintentionally), then I'd rather stay single for the rest of my life.

I'm not taking this lightly. No matter how much I try to ignore, to put it at the back of my mind, it keeps surfacing. No one knows how bloody hard it is for me to actually accept people in my life, to accept acquaintances as close friends. I don't want to paint myself a tragic story, don't think I'm trying to earn sympathy votes, so shut the hell up and cease the thought before I kick you.

I've been most accommodating so far. Not by choice, and only if I can afford it.

Forget it. The more I think, the more I want to break the wall in my room. I could just save myself the trouble and withdraw from everything. Save myself the trouble and keep to myself for indefinite periods of time. Avoid contact with them, immerse myself in work, catch up on videos, do cosplans.

No wonder they say, as long as you keep yourself occupied, you have time for little else. Including unnecessary, useless thoughts.

Never mind. It's obvious that my points didn't get through at all. I will shut up before my initial neutral feeling escalates to irritation.

It's not the bloody first time already. We all have the right to be irritated and angry at things. But sometimes, just because someone wants to let the matter rest doesn't mean the other party wants the same. It's not so much of trying to stir trouble, but more along the lines of addressing the damn problem right now so that it doesn't happen again, or it escalates to uncontrollable heights.

I'm not the best adviser, neither am I extremely sympathetic. But most of the time, when I asked why didn't we address the issues earlier, I get ignored or brushed aside. Dude, I'm not transparent.

I may be a kuudere, but people seen to have a misunderstanding that kuuderes are emotionless and more tolerant of negative feedback. Doesn't mean we don't have feelings. We just hide it better than the rest. And we are apathetic part/most of the time. Still, saying inconsiderate things is just as insulting as to the next person.

Nevermind. Don't mind me. I'll just keep to myself and stay out of your life. Can't be bothered anymore.

Opinions and expression of thought

I don't want to start my Christmas day on a relatively solemn mood, but it matters not since I don't celebrate Christmas. First of all, a disclaimer - I am not pissed, nor angry, nor disappointed, nor sad. I just want to bring it up so that I can put it out of my mind afterward. Let's just say, it is a neutral feeling on my part, the point where you don't exactly feel anything. Neither positive nor negative.

When I first decided to cosplay a certain character, I did it because, hey, why not, it's not as if I don't like the series or the character? I even asked for quotations, with the intention of getting the materials and all. (Thank god I haven't gotten started) It was also a "I don't want to form a team. You want to cos, feel free to join." thing, something which I agree and have no cause or reason to say or feel otherwise.

Then, I got a "Do you mind if someone else takes your character and maybe pick another one? Because someone else would rather cos this than another character." At that time, I was too hung up over LOTR to feel annoyed or anything that would dampen my mood. Hence my reaction was "Ok. But if I give it to someone else, I'll pull out. I don't have any other character I am interested in."

How would you feel if someone told you that? If it were a character I really, really love, or very into, or it were a series I really, really like, then I will raise hell and high water and gods be damned about the repercussions. Like toku and Maple Story. I am no pushover, but I can compromise. I consider other opportunities, more chances to cosplay something I want, to push forward a plan, even money-saving techniques, if I drop it.

Things might have been better if it were of my own volition instead. At least it wouldn't come across as being forced, even if it isn't.

On a more serious note, I will murder all of them if they tell me they want to drop TWEWY, AFTER they were quite insistent I be their Neku. It's been more than a year since they wanted a team. Especially after I've gotten my costume and wig already. I will hear NO excuses about wanting to push other plans first just because said plan was decided on a whim. I can excuse postponing because you can't make it for an event or you fell sick or something unexpectedly last minute crops up. BUT anything else, I will make sure my displeasure is heard, felt and experienced for days.

*sigh*

Time to go back to my stuff...

KamiAso (from a long time ago)

Kamigami no Asobi - Apollon’s Ends

Apollon looks so cute in his god form.

http://tatsu-to-mamo-no-atm.tumblr.com/post/65192728821/route-sun-god-continues-on

Omfg TSUKITO DID YOU BORROW MUKKUN'S DRESS OR SOMETHING. At least Hades looks decent as the King.

Thoth end

What. What the hell.

Hades
Kamigami no Asobi - Hades’s Endings

HADES COME LEMME GIVE YOU A HUG WHAT IS THIS. Omg ALL his endings are quite bittersweet what is this. The only one I find ok is Fate end 1, where Apollon decides to share half of the burden of the curse. Such a sweet nephew. And Love end 2. I don't agree with the blogger that it's not a good ending, mainly because I don't mind the underworld lol. Dude, it's Hades. What do you expect? Maybe I could meet Thanatos? XD Or pay a visit to Osiris?

http://www.kamiaso.com/uranai.php

I got Loki the first time. LOL

And Hades the second time.

Dammit what happened to my Maple? It says my user's already logged in, or there's something wrong with my server. OTL I restarted my com but the same issue occurs.

I was supposed to accept one of my kids' characters, lol. I make a point not to add my kids on FB (unless they are graduating/have graduated) but I've no issue adding them if they happen to play the same game.

Fuuuuuuuuuuu dammit I changed my password but the same problem still remains =.= I've sent an email to the admin, and hope they get back to me. Urgh. In the meantime I created another account. ArdRigh, my Mercedes, and Sgaile, my Phantom. (I WILL WAIT FOR XENON TO BE BACK. I LOVE MY BABY TOO MUCH.)

Bloody hell I don't even know what happened. All I did was log out from my Kanna. Then the issue came.

Poor Legolas

http://lawyerupasshole.tumblr.com/post/38672105559

SHIT

I DIED LAUGHING.

OMFG

POOR LEGOLAS. (My initial reaction was that, before I burst out laughing.)

*discreetly saves the Lee Pace gifs* Because let's face it, he makes a really, enviably pretty lady.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8J-TJa68-s

FOUND IT. THE PART.

Now that I've sobered, I want to know what kind of wig was used in that show. Seriously, the way it flows so smoothly like some freaking hair advertisement. I wish my long wigs can do that. It'll make photos involving hair-flipping so much easier.

Bweh.

=====

http://middle-earth.thehobbit.com

AH THIS IS SO COOL. Better yet, the first thing I clicked on was Thranduil's Hall.

Is there one with Simarillion? It'll be so much easier to understand the stories inside. OTL

AU fanfics for LOTR

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9357902/1/All-That-Remains

This.fic.is.good.

AU yes, but who cares. I get to see the fatherly side of Thranduil, I am a HUGE fan of assassin elves, elves, more elves, a new enemy that's almost primitive and who the hell cares for Sauron or Morgoth. It's been a long time since I read an adventure fic with zero romance. Because, I tend not to bother with romance for fantasy stories? I don't know, my love for adventure supersedes romance by a huge margin. Not saying I don't appreciate it - dude, I get my fair share of teen romance in those young adult fantasy novels, which I cringe at times. So cheesy. *shivers*

Granted, I don't openly express my distaste for cheesy romance (yes I'm looking at you, baka kitty). I do roll my eyes discreetly though....*innocent look*

I'm finding it tedious to understand the Simarillion. Too many names to remember. I need a chart, if not I will have no freaking idea who are the gods, who founded the elf races, who fought who etc.

Bweh.

Merely stating a fact

If not for skype and whatsapp, I may find myself distancing from my current group of friends. Once I mentioned it, beginning my sentence with "Sadly". They may view it as a joke, but I don't. I was serious. I had always moved on. I barely keep in contact with my schoolmates. I bet most would have forgotten about me, unless they recognize my face. Or are updated through Facebook. Even so, I am not so updated on Facebook now, only popping in to check for updates and notifications.

If I hadn't downloaded whatsapp, the possibility of me being a shadow among them will rise greatly. Even our skype chats seem to be dying down, what with people working, doing assignments, gaming, doing props.

Frankly speaking, I'm tired of being the one initiating the conversation. Even if it's just a small greeting. It is not my style. I don't like it; I don't like doing it. I join conversations, I don't start them unless I have to. Why must I make this effort only to find myself waiting, most of the time with little hope of a reply, wasting my time on unnecessary things like this?

No more. I'm not a social butterfly. I don't initiate PMs on Facebook, I don't have anything of interest to talk to people unless they start the convo first. A greeting is fine. Anything else is not up to me to initiate.

No more. A firm reminder to myself. No more.

No more.

Thranduil cosplay and reference

http://fuckablenerdstuff.tumblr.com/tagged/thranduil-cosplay

http://www.celebrationgeneration.com/blog/2013/11/25/so-im-dressing-my-husband-up-as-thranduil/

If I ever want to cosplay Thranduil, or even look for reference, these links will be excellent. The boot covers are excellent. I want to see if I can adapt them for Phantom's boot covers.

I am on a Thranduil roll.

Also, part of the reason why I'm actively searching for Thranduil poses, is because he (or rather Lee Pace's expressions) can be useful guides for Hades. My dear God of the Underworld's expressions are almost pained half the time. But that's not the point. Thing is, the way Lee Pace carried himself as Thranduil, I want to try using it on Hades, namely because the head position is somewhat similar.

I try to learn poses from the actors and idols I see. They can be pretty inspiring and useful, especially for someone whose default facial expression is kuu. ^^; And I'm best at pulling off kuudere characters.

Luminous and Eunwol vs Black Mage!

URGH WHAT IS THIS. I NEED MORE.

Taking a break from the LOTR madness I found myself in. Like damn, when was the last time I actively fangirled over a character?

Joe.

I didn't fangirl over Mukkun and Himuro this hard. As for Haru, it was an intense but quiet fangirling.

Joe still remains my number 1 to-die-for character.

I'M ON LOTR ROLL

Because I want to see more elves.

So far, I like the Mirkwood Elves the best? They're wilder, haha. I mean, because I kinda envision my royal elves to have some kind of ethereal beauty (aka, looking no older than thirty, damn them).

And yes, milord Thranduil. Fabulous diva, awesome, sassy, sexy as hell, please excuse the fan here. Legolas is pretty yes, as all elves are, but milord Thranduil holds my attention far more than his son does.

OMG LEGOLAS AND GIMLI WHY ARE YOU TWO SO PRECIOUS. I REALLY LIKE THEIR FRIENDSHIP HAHAHA BROTP FOREVER. (No I refuse to accept any BL ships in LOTR. It's just, so wrong. Guh. I will no sooner burn my eyes in acid than see any BL in LOTR.)

MY APOLOGIES. I AM ENRAPTURED BY ELVES AND FAERIES ALIKE. IT IS MOST UNBECOMING OF A HUMAN MORTAL LIKE ME TO VIEW THE FAIRFOLK WITH MY UNWORTHY EYES.

Shut the hell up who gives a shit. Only faeries enchant. Elves are warriors. Faeries are fairfolk.

I love both.

I watched the Hobbit - Desolation of Smaug. Fangirled over Thranduil and the elves (Legolas is pretty, yes, but I honestly prefer his father. MILORD).

And now, I'm watching the LOTR trilogy. Extended version.

Tenimyu feels

あいつこそがテニスの王子様 remains one of my top few favourite Tenimyu songs ever. Other favourites are Season, On My Way, Remember Hyoutei, Tezuka's song whose title eludes me, Kagami no ore no naka II (why the hell does Hyoutei have nice songs what is this). Fuurinkazan isn't a favourite, but it's a song I like to sing just because. The hell of it XD And Do Your Best, not another top favourite, but it's a nostalgic song that guided me through my NAPFA tests during my JC years (don't ask).

So much feels for DL7. And the Dream Live 2013 Special Guest version I was watching, omg. So much feels for the older cast in 1st Season. So nostalgic =w= But I like how the dances were better choreographed in 2nd Season. And the singing. Still, I will forever love Shirotan as my Tezuka. While Wada is my pretty Tezuka. And TakiEiji is THE MAN. THE TEZUKA TEN YEARS LATER. VERY HANDSOME. It's like, Shirotan and Dai-chan are both Tezuka in his university days, TakiEiji the Tezuka in the working society, Wada the pretty Tezuka from high school.

Oh yeaaah.

Tezuka-buchou, still my top favourite Tenipuri character. Followed by Yukimura and Choutarou.

But 2nd Season isn't easy to find. 网舞第二季 issit?

Hoshikuzu live

FictionJunction. So much love.

Hoshikuzu. So much love.

Kajiura Yuki Discography =D

Time to torrent

I didn't know Velvet no Inori is published in 2004 from this album called Fantasy Sound & Reading: The Velveteen Rabbit.

Now I know.

And I still prefer Hoshikuzu.
I want to arrange a song or two for solo instruments and piano accompaniment. Maybe a mash-up if I can. To avoid copyright issues, these songs will be for my own listening pleasure and non-downloadable. Inspired by The Piano Guys.

I want to see how this will play out on Logic Pro.

The issue is, which songs.....

I have several ideas.
  1. Kotonoha - Piko
  2. Trust Me - Matsushita Yuya
  3. Splash Free - STYLE FIVE
On so much a random thought, this reminds me - I haven't memorised Byakuya True Light and Michishirube acoustic yet. Time to learn.

Random cosplay musings

The Ukyo fanart in this link is really pretty.

I really love Ukyo. He's what you might call the tragic hero. Poor guy.

But we aren't cosplaying Amnesia anymore.

We move on. Our next big target: Maple Story.

I intend to do my best to pull off a Phantom people will remember.

=====

I am glad we are reshooting Gokaiger. Because this time, we will have weapons.

This time, we will hade ni ikuze!

Can't wait. I find it somewhat unnatural if Joe doesn't have weapons. With weapons, it's easier to pose. The Mobirates are one thing, but they can only do so much. (Unless we do crack shots.) I will do my best to be a convincing Joe.

CAPTAIN AMERICA THE WINTER SOLDIER

IT'S STEVE VS BUCKY

AHHH MY GODDDDSSSS

Sorry, because, I love Captain America? I ship Loki/Steve like burning? And I like the action scenes? Marvel movies are pretty cool to watch, but I can never get down to reading the comics because Marvelverse is so complex I give up.

=====

I have a sudden desire to rewatch Gokaiger. WTF

And Garo too. OTL

And this is coming from someone who usually has no patience to rewatch shows. Look, I actually rewatched Garo s1 and s2 twice. And certain Gokaiger episodes more than 4 times.

Monday, December 09, 2013

I want to shoot Gokaiger.

I am fired up after seeing a friend's Fourze Rabbit Hutch shoot photos. Quite pleased that the photogs wanted to shoot our Gokaiger team. I am deeply honoured.

Now to make the Gokai sabers OTL I must find a day and plan.

And I will embrace the thought of a Gokaiger vs Kyoryuger shoot as well. I mean, it'll be damn cool? I can already imagine Joe vs Souji and Ucchi. (This calls for a crossover fic)

More importantly, I know most of the cosplayers in the Kyoryuger team. =D It's fun fangirling/fanboying over toku and the actors.

KamiAso getting an anime.

What. The. Fuck.

I'm....dreading it. And yet not. Because I can guarantee that the OST will be good. Why else do you think I still watch otoge-turned-anime despite the quality and awkwardness? (I actually like La Corda and Neo Angelique Abyss so I will not have anyone bashing them, especially La Corda.) Because I really like otoge music.

Call me shallow. Call me a musictard. I will stand by the music I listen to.

Gaburincho of Music

Kyoryuger Gaburincho of Music movie is out! Haha well sentai movies have always been short - only half hour - so I'm not surprised. Sentai crossover movies, on the other hand, are more than one hour. Sentai specials are about one hour.

Kamen Rider movies are more than one hour.

Damn, I like the theme song in the movie. Funny how I listened to the music before the movie came out. Ok, maybe not, since the OST came out before the movie.

Shit shit shit I really love the music. I love the part they sang together. I am a huge sucker for music. toku + music wins my heart and soul.

Oh King you are such an idiot. You need something shoved at your face before

Guhhhh I really must watch Kyoryuger from where I left off. The character songs are awesome. (I lament the lack of Gokaiger character songs.)

But I need to work on props.

*continues lamenting*

I created a new wallpaper for this blog out of photoshop. My very first wallpaper using photoshop ^^ Sadly I can't draw anything, so please don't tell me to draw. I'll fail.

><

I'm a musician. Not a graphic designer. Or artist that wields paints and needles like weapons. My weapon is the instrument.

I...have to remember that when it comes to accessories, I have the option to glam things further.

Because Phantom is heavily accessorized. The accessories I see in the picture, and those I cannot see in the picture, are left to my own discretion. I won't do that to toku, or other cosplays, but this guy. I want to glam him up to the best of my abilities. More jewels. More gold.

SO CUTE. ALL THE TEMPLATES.

I mentioned that I wanted to make Phantom and Aria plushies before cosfest. I will plan it. I think I will make Aria first, then I can use it for photoshoot.

Forgotten hero Eun Wol

http://jipooly.tumblr.com/post/68446897331/so-apparently-theres-going-to-be-a-new-character

OMG A LONG-HAIRED BISHIE

More than that, HE MIGHT BE THE PIRATE CLASS HERO

OTL I want to play this character already. I mean, look, those Hero pictures? Phantom and Luminous really quarrelled to no end huh. Him trying to stop the fight, so cute. =w=

Thank you Nexon. More photoshoot ideas. And my friends and I will NOT be content with just one photoshoot. Not enough, for the amount of effort we put in. Definitely not enough. And we managed to drag Chris as our Eun Wol ^^ I mean, since the class comes out at the end of the year in KMS, she has time to wait for the costume and gameplay to be out.

=w=

CHROME REDESIGN

http://jonn-lock.tumblr.com/post/68494178497/redesign-of-chrome-kinda-hope-you-guys-had-a

OH

MY

GOD

NOW THAT I AM VERY TEMPTED TO COSPLAY. But erm, clear current plans first...?

EDIT: LOOK HERE

LOOK AT THE REDESIGNS.

OH MY GOD IF JON ACTUALLY SELLS THESE AS AN ARTBOOK I WILL BUY THEM IMMEDIATELY.

I wonder if I can do a Chrome cosplan someday, because I WILL wear my cosplay hoodies. Most of them are made of PVC and hence they keep me warm. Plus it saves me the trouble of using an umbrella when drizzles occur ^^

Hmm, Xenon or Chrome......wait and see then.

Marginal #4 lyrics
http://jpoptime.com/marginal-4-hyakuman-kai-no-ai-revolution/

So far I only found Hyaku man kai no ai revolution romaji lyrics. I really like this song's introduction. My favourite Marginal #4 songs are 100Revo and Masquerade. Not saying I dislike Love Saviour (it was my first song in fact), just that preference-wise 100Revo and Masquerade have more impact over me.

=====

Nah, well, I was looking at a FB friend's Phantom WIP and it got me thinking, why can't I save myself the trouble (why the HELL do I even want paper mache???) and just use a harder material? I mean, I already HAVE the templates.

Hmm, time to replan my accessories.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLWsK1ZFunA

I blame Loki for bringing back Captain America in Thor 2. I like him because of Avengers. Chris Evans makes a very handsome Cap *_*

And then I started reading Loki/Steve fanfics. I BLAME YOU LOKI wwwwwww

Hahahaha maa I do like Loki from Norse mythology, but he's not a god where I would fangirl over. Mainly because Norse mythology is quite screwed up haha. Not saying Greek isn't, but hey I like Hades. In Egyptian mythology, I like Anubis.

I should probably read up more on Norse mythology before deciding if I have any favourite Norse gods from there...

Back to topic.

I WANT TO WATCH WINTER SOLDIER WHEN IT COMES OUT.

Thursday, November 21, 2013

I made a mistake.

I am not sorry for it.

It will never happen again, that I can guarantee.

I am still not sorry for it. I agree there are other possible ways to handle it, but well, if making me the villain can ensure a better outcome, then so be it.

Anti-heroes anyone?

Wednesday, November 20, 2013

I don't usually concern myself with British actors, but I swear Tom Hiddleston, you've just earned yourself a new fan here. Not rabid, but it's the "Yes I really admire you." kind of fan.

I found out 天樂 is in fact Kagamine Rin's song.

Excellent. Meaning I don't need to try Piko's style for this song. Goodness how the blazers did he do that man. So much easier when I can just sing my own style.

Coz I found this version from a FB friend's wall. I mean, how many songs titled Tengaku do you know? So far, only 1.



Wow. The vocals.

http://stufftheysaytodepressedpeople.tumblr.com/post/61599372535/no-one-has-the-right-to-tell-you-that-their-life

I swear upon my never tell people that. I will never say those words. For me, it's along the lines of "No, I didn't get through it just fine. It was definitely not fine. It was painful. It was despair. I couldn't tell others. I didn't want to tell others. I didn't want to listen to the response they might give. It was my problem, not theirs. And so I bore it alone. And survived. Alone."

I will continue to survive as the world turns. I will live each passing day, experiencing joy, excitement, frustration, resentment, loneliness, contentment, until the day I no longer feel anything except a cold practicality.

The day people will ask "Where did your humanity go?"

"I used to have it, until the people around me took it. None returned."

"It is not possible. There must be some human compassion in you."

"Perhaps. But not for humans."

.....

Sounds like a fanfic idea.

DJ NIGHT

OMG Anisong concert! Why didn't they call it DJ Night, because it really was all DJs! Besides Egoist which used a hologram. And sang Namae no Nai Kaibutsu (SCREAMS. BEST OPENING SONG TO THIS CONCERT FOR EGOIST), All Alone with You, The Everlasting Crown, Departures.


[Taken from AFA FB]

Motsu - dark glasses and blonde mohawk, doing the thumbs up sign
DJ Kaya - red squarish glasses beside Motsu
livetune - hoodie and dark glasses, beside DJ Kaya
Hachiouji-P - the remaining dude standing at the second row. Ok, he's wearing black blazer. And he's good-looking. >///< But my heart has already been sold to Marasy and Butsudankamen. *bricked* 

Like, Motsu x DJ Kaya pair, Hachiouji-P and Livetune are all DJs (Motsu is a rapper, pretty awesome ossan who knows how to get the crowd high as usual). Motsu X DJ Kaya really got the crowd moving with all the anime/game songs.

For example:

Rewrite. (I got the series wrong coz it's a long time, but who cares, at least I know the song and who sang it.)

Shangri-La. (I went crazy. It's ANGELA.)

Guren no Yumiya. (Everyone went crazy at the introduction)

Only My Railgun. (Yo Fripside, yo)

Pon Pon Pon. (I dislike the song but I recognise it.)

GO! (WE ARE FIGHTING DREAMERSSSSSSSSS holy crap I want more of FLOW's songs)

Hachiouji-P reminds me of my cousin haha. I died when he remixed Killer Lady. He also remixed Happy Synthesizer, Just Be Friends, Freely Tomorrow (I recognise this song only because of the V-Rock album), Sweet Devil, Game Over, and NyanCat XDDDD Nyan cat remix was nice hahaha.

Still, KILLER LADY. MY KOKORO.

And livetune. Sadly I didn't have time to listen to his songs, but no shit I went high at TAKE YOUR WAY.

DJ Night indeed.

DJs are awesome. Deejaying live? Hell yes. Gets the crowd moving too. I think I will definitely buy tickets if other DJs come, especially because their live remixing is pretty awesome. But MOTSU YOU AWESOME OSSAN YOU.

I will be prepared next year. If there are people I know who are coming to AFA and/or Anisong, I might just want to take leave and enjoy myself.

Tomorrow, I will look around the booths and snatch up goodies. I am limiting myself this time. Gotta save money. I spent a bomb last year, urgh.

Cosplay and me

The characters I cosplay and I have similar characteristics and sometimes share the same quirks. It's easier to pull off.

I don't know which character and I share the closest characteristics, because there is no one character who is eerily similar to me. Ukyo's likes, yes, for one. First time ever, a character is like me, not the other way round. I share Joe's cool perception, I share Phantom, Zero and Hades' loneliness, I share Hibari's aloofness, I can be as idiotic as Gentarou...

My opinion? Who do I think my personality is closest to?

Joe. Joe Gibken.

I didn't lose someone close to me, but his demeanour and mine are similar.

=====

http://great-blaster.tumblr.com/post/65724908485/character-test-find-out-which-free-character

Haruka. No questions asked. The "(11) You say what you’re thinking." question is a giveaway. Anyone who knows me, even if you're not a close friend, can answer that question for me without batting an eye =.=

SHIN-CHAN. YOU COSPLAYED HARU-CHAN OTL
Shougeki Gouraigan. FINALLY. IN EPISODE 5 SHOUMA APPEARS. =D

I like Geki, but Shouma's character =D

=====

I watched X Men: First Class yesterday at Sakia's house. Like, finally.

My childhood. I remember the cartoons I watched on TV last time. X Men, Spiderman, Batman, Justice League, Power Rangers, Pokemon, Digimon, the "more recent ones" such as Teen Titans, Danny Phantom, Powerpuff Girls.

If I were a mutant, what power would I possess? That's a tough question honestly. But I'm an extreme person, so I just said I can manipulate molecules. My story will be, people think I merely control air and water. Nothing much. But the scary side is, I can control molecules. For example, controlling blood, which is liquid, and even the oxygen in blood cells. Not something I want to expose right? Plus such great power means I will definitely have severe side effects. Because my body cannot handle it.

Manipulating molecules is overpowered yes, but hey, all the severe side effects balance it out. I want to control blood, or manipulate the dead (I've been reading too much Percy Jackson. That, or House of Hades impacted me rather deeply.), but er, why be normal when you could do something far more sinister?

Which faction? I'm an independent agent siding with Xavier but not joining his group. Because, I am no one's underling, plus with my powers, it's not something I want people to know. Siding with Xavier, not siding with his faction. I can't care less what his teams do. I only care what Xavier's actions coincide with my interests.

Happy birthday Himuro Tatsuya!

Because I'm an awkward shinigami, I shall not post my Himuro cosplay. I don't find it very appealing haha. Awkward braces. ^^; Plus I didn't always adjust my bangs because my vision was severely impaired. Putting a strain in one eye is taxing, so I always try to lift my bangs off my eyes.

Hahaha Maple Castle is full of ghosts. But it's quite cute.

AU story!!

XD

And I made some progress with my Raven Persona. I found out that the beak has to be separated from the hat itself - how else do you think the blue cloth is wrapped around the hat WITH the beak attached on top?? Now my challenge is to make the beak heavy enough to balance the slanted hat which will fall off no matter what (hairpins kudasai).

I feel slightly happier now. Guess the one way to keep me from thinking too much is to occupy my mind with several tasks.

Saturday, October 26, 2013



This turned up on Recommended videos.

How many people are involved in this video I wonder. I think everyone from LDH??!! I thought the LED costumes look familiar, as if the dancers are all from Generations? You know, Hot Shot's PV?

Interesting.....*stares at dancing*

=====

ĒlDLIVE - New manga series by Akira Amano-sensei.

First chapter raws

=====

While researching art and the arts, I came across this: http://annmariebone.deviantart.com/gallery/

Lovely traditional art.

I like landscape and scenery the most. Fantasy and animals are lovely too, but seeing beautiful landscapes remind me of the savage majesty of the wild. I want to be part of that, I want to see for myself the wildness, especially of the European landscapes.

Vampire Phantom


Vampire Phantom.

He's hot.

No seriously. Look at him. Those bats fluttering around him are adorable.

Just that putting him as Maple's Best Fashionista or whatever made me snort on my drink. The whole premise of Maple Castle is pretty cool though. A school for magic. LOL

AU stories hell yeah.

And look how cute Xenon is in that costume. He's forever my little kid. Must be the hair. *casually tosses away beauty coupons*

=====

Suwabe is coming AFA this year.

I can see certain friends of mine going crazy. Especially a certain someone *grins* Well I am getting the stage pass for Saturday. Hopefully Urobutcher is there on Saturday - I am most certainly not free on Sunday afternoon where all the activities are held.

I sure will visit the Psycho-Pass booth. It's my favourite anime series this year. Free! comes second. Sorry pretty boys, much as I love Haruka, I prefer dark excitement to the carefree, happy-go-lucky feeling. Much as I like Shingeki no Kyojin, the overhype puts me off. Too bad. It's worse than Kuroko no Basuke's hype. Plus it's not like I am that crazy over KnB either.

I am obsessed over Garo and Gokaiger, if that's what you're asking. OOO and Den-O are a close second. I need to watch more episodes of Gaim to rank the series, but I'm pretty sure Gaim will be among my favourite KR.

Halloween event in Maple

I like this song REALISM by ELISA. Valvrave 2's ED song. Maybe it's because I need some high-pitched vocals once in a while. While waiting for Shikata Akiko's new CD.

=====

[System Event] Jewel Party (Event Date: 16/10/2013, 0900hrs – 13/11/2013, 0859hrs (+8 GMT)

[System Event] Maple Halloween Event (Event Date: 24/10/2013, 0900hrs – 08/11/2013, 2359hrs (+8 GMT)

I'm the only one mapling right now. So the event currently going on means that I have to log in everyday to collect coins for both Phantom and Xenon.

Finally I have motivation to play my Phantom - I want the Raven Persona. I want my Phantom to own a Raven Persona. The event's until November 13. I have no idea how I'm to collect so many coins each, but I'll try. I might have to play Phantom more than Xenon though - quite certain those Special Class Helm items are untradeable.

And you ask why I can't find time for props.....
I think I'm out of it. Perhaps I am. Gotta stop feeling like this. I'm no longer a teen. I'm capable of controlling my emotions. I'm more than capable of schooling my expressions into something neutral.
I'm capable of living without human contact for a short period of time. Sounds unbelievable, but it's nothing major. Traits of being a hikki. Plus I can survive without a phone. I just need a book that's all. Or paper and pen.

The more I write, the more I seem to be reassuring myself I'm still capable of human emotion. The more it seems to imply I am severely deprived of human interaction. The more it seems like I'm behaving like a lonely brat who is afraid of losing his friends.

Ya know, self, it's alright. It's alright to distance yourself. It's alright to think like that, as long as you don't impose on others. It's alright to feel lonely, to keep quiet and not participate. No one is forcing you. No one needs to pay attention to you all the time. You don't need to talk to feel like you belong. You don't need to do things to be part of the crowd.

You're different. No matter how many close friends you have, you cannot hope to change your underlying core - that your thinking is still that of someone who can survive solitude, who has survived solitude and will continue to do so.

You don't have to care. This is not you. So stop it with this impression of self-pity and "the whole world needs to know you're suffering" mindset. Don't even start.

You live your life, they live theirs. Don't interfere. Don't care if they know you or not - haven't you always preferred to be this mysterious friend no one knows much about? Do it. Go for it. So much that all people say is "I thought I knew. Then I realise, I don't know much about her."

Because, seriously. Stop.

Just stop.

Oh yes. Yuyan in megane. Yes. I don't know about the hairstyle, but I prefer it to the longer locks he had. Not to mention my favourite hairstyles of his was during his Trust Me, Lonely Rain, and dammit, Fuyuzora videos.

I love his whole appearance in Fuyuzora video.

And my favourite songs are still Lonely Rain and Trust Me. I don't listen to Lonely Rain that much though, because it's quite a sad ballad.

Just Haruka.

Oh what a lovely song. I love ballads like these.

Heh, I guess I'm in a pop song mood now.

I confess, I like Waking Me Up more than Burning Up.

DAM Burning Up
DAM Waking Me Up

Looks like the next karaoke session I will be singing several Generations and Sandaime JSB songs. Huh.....
Staying off all convos till the Pokemon craze dies down.

And I will entertain myself with other things in the meantime.

Like learning the English lyrics for Love You More.

http://www.jpopasia.com/group/generations/lyrics/hot-shot/love-you-more-english-version::203236.html

OMG Crying. The lyrics are lovely, just that the pronunciation is hilarious. Props for effort, and to whoever wrote the lyrics.

But yes, I need distractions. Self entertainment. So that I can say things like "Oh, it's not like I have anything to do either. Might as well." if anyone asks "why I'm being anti-social". I mean, if people are dating their devices I might as well do my own things and not bother them, yes? No need to behave like an attention-starved brat. I only want people to not waste my time that's all, especially if you're paying more attention to something else. I'm just leaving you to your own devices, pun completely intended. Feel free to carry on without me. I've other things to do than entertain you and your devices.

If you feel offended because of those words, it probably means you're guilty. If you don't, then perhaps you understand where I'm coming from.

Chords

Style Five – Ever Blue
GENERATIONS from EXILE TRIBE - Love You More

I want to do chords for these songs =w=

And many other songs. (Yuyan, I'm eyeing you)

Mostly anime songs I listen to, and especially character songs. Character songs, so underrated. But no, I'm not going into Tenipuri territory - they have so many character songs I am just wtf. Sorry, the only few I will collect are Tezuka, Yukimura and Shiraishi's.

And I gave up. =.=

House of Hades

「仮面ライダー鎧武」キャラクターブック VOL.ZERO~FIRST BATTLE~ aka the first photobook for Gaim

Pairings galore.

But right now, I'm very intrigued by Percico. House of Hades was a good read - hello, controlling a sea of blood? Embracing the homo side of Greek mythology? Oh yes I approve much. Riordan-san is awesome like that. First the meeting between Carter and Percy in Son of Sobek. Now House of Hades. I can't wait for the next book already. Wonder if Carter will appear, heh.

Come on, Leo/Calypso is adorable! My OTP is Percybeth, but damn, I want Percy to know Nico's feelings. From fanboy to having a crush? I mean, Jason realised and he's okay with it. Sadly, it's one-sided because, Annabeth. Nico, stop being so emo and hide from everything. Dammit. You're running away you dumbass.

I have a habit of reading fanfics that aren't my OTP, merely something I am intrigued by and accept (with a Cheshire grin on my face). Pairings I don't care for, I scroll past them without a second thought.

Speaking of which, I think it's time to surf Basketballpoets for the most recent character battle. So many Reo-nee ficlets to read =3 I swear that battle had the highest response out of all the challenges so far.

From http://www.panpacificdefense.com/

Huh. So I have the highest position. Hurhurhur. I'll probably tell my subordinates - SIC 'EM AND COME BACK ALIVE.

=====

I was playing Dragon Crown at Sakia's. Yep, pretty certain the Elf is for me. If there are thief classes I'd have selected them on the spot, but unfortunately the thief is an NPC that trails along on your quests. So my main is the Elf, long distance, agility. I kept saying the Elf and her daggers are the equivalence of thieves - the destructive power is also more concentrated in a close range. Not like I use my character's arrows all the time. There's a pathetic limit.

But yeah, as long as I have friends keeping me company in games, I will go a long distance. Right now, I am slowing down in Maple, but hey, I still play occasionally.

Speaking of which, I think I should stop looking at Haruka cosplays and thinking which ones are good references for Xenon/Chrome. The thing about Xenon and Chrome is, their outfits are similar, their appearances are similar, and their personalities are similar. I don't know if I have time to even cosplay them, because after Phantom, I will concentrate on Dark and the Gokai Sabers. I haven't given up on Dark yet - I need time to make his wings, but I have an idea how to stabilise the wings now. Plus, we want our last Gokaiger shoot WITH WEAPONS.

Yes self, stop procrastinating. Time to do those props *kicks*
HALLOWEEN PARTY by HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA

The costumes OTL The makeup. The whole setting. The music composition is interesting.

And I am reminded that I wanted to check out BREAKERZ because I kind of like the vocalist? My friends are supposed to pass me Uverworld too =.= Yes I am lazy to download their music. No I am not exactly well-versed in Jrock and Visual Kei. The only genre I actively collect is anime OST.

I listen to songs. Not so much to the artist. Well, the J artists I actively collect the songs of are Matsushita Yuya, Piko, Yoshioka Aika, Kalafina, Sound Horizon, Shikata Akiko, and quite recently, Generations from Exile Tribe. I have almost all of Kagrra's songs too (the only Visual Kei/ Jrock band I really love).

Erm, I don't think I want to start picking up EXILE and its many sub groups. Too many. I think I'll stick to Sandaime J Soul Brothers and Generations first.

Son of Sobek

I will not forget the time in Toei Eigamura where Wizard sauntered to us and hi-fived us. OTL Toku fangirl overload.

Now to find time to watch Kyoryuger..=D

I don't follow Pokemon, but these gijinka art are freaking awesome. My favourite are Absol and Luxray. I'm biased towards Luxray though, haha.

Amnesia musical.

Dafug. I don't approve of the Ukyo. My Ukyo is beautiful.

So, character profiles of the Free! characters. I want Haruka. Only Haruka.

I realise I can never bring myself to read Free! fanfics. Mainly because I really don't want to read any pairing where Haru-chan is the uke. I think the only kind I'll read is my OT5, or NagiRei, or maybe RinRei.

Maybe.

I just can't bring myself to read Free! fanfics.

Son of Sobek

Goodness.

Rick Riordan.

WTF

You actually wrote a crossover between Kane Chronicles and Percy Jackson series.

Carter meets Percy.

OMG

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Wizard

Oh yeah, marathoning the last 10 episodes of Wizard. The series ends in 51 episodes - I like the story actually. It's quite dark, if you look at the whole story in general. The last 2 episodes seem to be a short sequel to the end of the series. Like dude, why would the other riders appear lol.

Besides our dear old ONORE DECADE.

But hey I miss Tsukasa. Somewhat. Shut up about Kaijin Taisen, stupid arrogant Tsukasa. XD You were the one who caused the first Taisen anyway. Dammit OMG MOMO-CHAN. I MISS DEN-O. KIVA. FOURZE. W. OOO.

What is this, a mini taisen??!! I like it, but still, more plot development please XD

You know, all these make good fanfic fodder. I have my musings, but I don't have the capability to write long fics. I run out of inspiration quite easily ^^;

Can't wait for Wizard movie already. I always love watching KR movies and the crossover seasons. HELLO GAIM. Kouta you are honestly damn adorable hahahahaha. But his character is quite different from the one in the Gaim series....Perhaps we need to wait and see what Urobutcher has in stall for us.

Ok I shall watch Gaim tomorrow =D And find time to watch Kyoryuger too.

I thought my hairstyle and blue contacts gave me a Haru impression, but I think it's just my eyes playing tricks on me and my mind trying to psycho me to cosplay Haru. I shut it off because, Haru is another character I really like and will avoid cosplaying if I can help it. Sadly, I can't say the same for Joe or Hibari. They are my favourite characters yes, but I was forced to cosplay them. I would have avoided cosplaying Joe if not for Captain.

=====

I watched Super Hero Taisen Z raw today. The fan in me is happy to see Gokaiger, Gobusters, OOO, Fourze, Wizard, Kyoryuger in the same place. Like, HELL YEAH. Story's slightly better than Taisen, but still kinda weird. I think there should be fanfics about how Taisen Z should have gone.

Maybe I should watch Wizard tomorrow.....

KnB character ranking meme

http://flights.satevis.us/rknb.html


Well, they got my top 4 correct. But this doesn't include all the characters, so I can't really say what goes on from no 5 onwards. And most obviously Hanamiya is my least favourite; damn that dickhead. My absolute distaste for him is known even among my friends, though they all share the same sentiments as me, so I'm not the only one.

Yeah, Mukkun, Tatsuya, Akashi and Kasamatsu. =D

=====

Nah don't worry. I haven't forgotten about Free! - how to, when Haru is among my all-star favourites? ^^ I want to own at least one Haru-related clothing. Maybe the dolphin shirt he wears. But only after I reduce the amount of clothes in my closet...which is...uh....next year....I hope....

This fic is so adorable I'm laughing as I read it. Warnings aside, I love how Taiga is so maji tenshi here. Basketball idiot.

=====

Damn. Heroes of Olympus - House of Hades is out. From all the spoilers I see, it is quite a dark story. Plus a cliffhanger. Plus I know I will flip if Nico dies - I like my JasonXPercyXNico OT3.

REO-NEE.

WHAT.

I DON'T WANT TO KNOW. Actually I do. I wonder if it's Akashi. Or Nebuya. XD

Eh, I want to see an all-star camp where the different positions are grouped together. ALL SHOOTING GUARDS UNITE. Then Reo-nee goes around flirting with all the shooting guards. Himuro will be amused. Hyuuga is most definitely NOT amused. So is Midorima. Moriyama will lament the lack of girls and Reo-nee will like bat his eyes at him and all. Sakurai will become a broken radio saying "SUMIMASEN" and becoming scared of Reo.

Oh yes, this I want to see.

Wahhhh

MibuAka short musings which I approve of.

I think I'm just amusing myself.

Hehhh my top two favourite characters here in no 1 and no 2 spots huh. Ok, yes Levi is my favourite character in SnK. Haru, don't make me spell it out for you.

I'm just...well....not surprised by Haru and Mako's popularity haha. I only want people to appreciate kuuderes more, because kuuderes are so rare.

Someday, when I clear out my clothes, I will own a Haru shirt. That Haruka dolphin shirt.


Then there was this.

I saw it on a friend's wall and almost fell off my chair. Because, Sota-kun as Haru??? NONONONONONO I DO NOT WANT TO IMAGINE HARU GOING UCHUU KITAAA AND DOING THE HANDSHAKE WITH EVERYONE. Tori as Mako?! CHIBA YUDAI AS NAGISA YES THIS I'M OK.

And Sakia was grinning because, FourzeXShinkenRedXGoseiRed. LOL

That young Mamo picture is OTL. But toku-wise, I'd rather put Tsune. Heh.

My kokoro. Stab through my kokoro.

Why is it that I always see fics where Himuro emos and Kagami saves him? No matter how angsty their relationship is, I don't like to see my baby being portrayed like that. D=

Happy birthday Atsushi!

Ahahaha shit I'm still watching Burning Up. Don't ask.

FINALLY.

AFTER A YEAR OR SO

I HAVE REMOVED MY BRACES.

TODAY MARKS THE DAY THOSE METAL BRACES ENCASING MY TEETH DISAPPEAR FROM MY LIFE. NO I WILL NOT KEEP THEM. WHATEVER FOR. I DO NOT NEED REMINDERS OF HOW MUCH I SPENT ON THEM, HOW MUCH TIME I TOOK TO TRAVEL TO THE ORTHODONTIST FOR MY MONTHLY CHECK-UPS.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MURASAKIBARA ATSUSHI

Tezuka: 7 October

Atsushi: 9 October

Tatsuya: 30 October

All the October babies from sports anime and manga happen to be my favourite characters. What is this OTL

Yay, something to refer to when I write out the song for myself!

I got bored so I started finding lyrics for Splash Free! and writing the chords. Partly because I think writing chords will later help me with the song arrangement should I ever want to write out the scores. I also want to practise improvising through chords - anyone wants to sing Splash Free! ballad? I'll provide the accompaniment =D

Generations from Exile Tribe musing

Shirahama Alan and Katayose Ryota.

One is my favourite dancer from Generations, another is this singer whose boyish smile is cute. Ok, but seriously, Alan is ridiculously good-looking....when his hairstyle doesn't grate on my nerves that is. Alan...seems to be mixed blood.

I should stop watching Generations MVs, but I can't stop staring at the dance moves. Partly because they are making me want to learn a new dance, and partly because I think some of the dance moves make great poses. I am bored of the usual cosplay poses I see, so I am gathering data from different sources. Magazines, anime, fanart, MVs.

This site, is kinda hilarious and wtf, but it provides good fic ideas. Plenty of scenarios, plenty of ideas. *nods*

七瀬遙

七瀬遙

Because it's Haruka.

Because I am attracted to the expressionless danderes and kuuderes. Their faces don't show what they think. Their eyes, or actions however, say a thousand words. Not many like such characters. They are rare, their characters are not easy to express, to do a good character development is not easy.

Man of actions, not words.

I'm the only kuudere among my friends.

=====

I finally got myself a Twitter account.

On Tezuka-buchou's birthday.

Happy birthday, Tezuka-buchou! The second megane danshi in my life, besides Satoshi.

I realise all my favourite characters are kuuderes. Satoshi, Tezuka, Ren, Byakuya, Neji, Joe, Kouga, Haruka...

But yeah, a Twitter account. And one I probably won't bother much, haha.

I think
