Fate/Stay Night Character Image - ???
:
Picture thanks to Nipponsei's scan
Hehe... Today is the release of another Fate/Stay Night Character Image Album. So far there's already five. And the sixth one is....... RIDER!!!! Hahaha yes yes that hot purple haired servant. actually, I don't really enjoy these character albums very much. Their songs are not very... catchy, or memorable. I just download them for the sake of my collection and also because I LOVE this anime. I don't know why people don't give a good rating, but everything in the show is fine to me. Sometimes you just can't let the reviews or ratings influence. For this show, I say go ahead and watch it! =)
Performed by: Asakawa Yuu

Check This Great AMV Out!!
:
Well, I was just looking for videos in YouTube and I came across this VERY BEAUTIFUL AMV! The maker did a very good job with timing and put the flashes at appropriate places. Hope you guyes enjoy it as much as I do!
*Edit: Actually, I originally found this video on Veoh, but its embedded video player is too big for my blog entry space and it extended to my tagboard. Luckily, the maker also uploaded the video to YouTube and so I used that instead.
Video Info: Song Title: My Heart Will Go On (Titanic) Artist: Celine Dion Anime: Romeo X Juliet
I have just added Boys Be... into my anime database! I remember watching this back in my Primary school days when AXN was still showing anime. Haha, I can't believe I actually considered this as soft porn (thanks to the panty flash in the first episode and the second Chiharu stripping down to her bras and undies in the last episode). There are little naughty scenes along the way, but don't mind them. what you should be focusing on, is how these high school students deal with adolescence, and relationships. People can learn a thing or two from this show.
For the people who bothered to visit the information page, you will notice that I had quite a long descripton for Boys Be... This is because I had combined both the plot summary of Wikipedia and Anime News Network. I figured that taking from just one website is not enough. I am planning to do the same thing for the other animes in my database, but of course it will have to take a day or two. ok thats about it, cya!
The anime focuses upon the ups and downs, joys and sorrows of first love and teenage romance. Six high school students are about to embark on a journey about love and life. They had to struggle in their quest to find the perfect partner, and their only enemies are their adolescent limitations.
Kyoichi and Chiharu have been childhood friends and suddenly their relationship is becoming more serious. Makoto believes that his computer can help acquire love. Yoshihiko is a talented baseball player, who is very unsure about himself. Chiharu's friends Yumi and Aki are looking for a solution to their loneliness.
Each episode begins and ends with a philosophical quote which loosely sums up the episode's content. Boys Be..., while centered on Kyoichi and Chiharu, actually revolves about seven or eight main characters and their love lives. The coming events will teach them serious life lessons…

Yet Another CD Release!
:
Credit goes to Nipponsei for the picture
well, this was actually released a few days ago, but I just forgot to place it in the previous post. anyways, I could not update my Gigantic Formula information page for the official soundtracks because I could not find the release date. well it seems like I can update it now since it just so happens that it was released =P. well anyways, here is a little information on this:
Performed by: Sena
Tracklisting 1. Tsubasa 2. Baby Love 3. Tsubasa Instrumental 4. Baby Love Instrumental
well, it seems that there's yet another early release of CDs... ealier it was Darker Than BLACK's Opening Single, this time it is Darker Than BLACK's Ending Single, and Sola's Ending Single. well, I'm not going to take the release dates off these two anime's database until the official release dates had arrived. well, I didn't really crave for these two Singles, but I'm was quite looking forward to Darker Than BLACK's Ending Single. I didn't like Sola's ending song much, but I just download it for the sake of... cause I'm watching it? I dunno how to say it...
*Pictures are thanks to Nipponsei and Nfang*
Sola ED Single - mellow melody [Ceui] (38.0mb)
Darker Than BLACK ED Single - Tsukiakari [Rie fu] (33.2mb)
thats right, I've added a new anime into my database that is Gigantic Formula! Ming Yi introduced this anime to me, and he seemed to like it alot. so I decided to try it out and I have t say it was GREAT!! the character design maybe a little simplistic, but the action, robots, current storyline, and character development definitely make up for it. just like Ming Yi, I will definitely recommend this show. also, it has signs of romance!! =D I mean, come on... who doesn't love romance?? XD
ok, now to move away from Gigantic Formula (but its still freaking awesome!!), I know that my information page of each anime is very messy. it looks like a bunch of words just "splat" onto the page, making it very messy and hard to read. I'm still trying to solve this problem so that you guys will be able to view it without much of a headache. for those of you who actually visited my blog and checked it out, I thank you for stopping by. I know this is not much, but I will be slowly improving on it. ok thats all for now. cya people!!
The series is set in the year 2035 A.D. The 12 heads, each resembling a Greek God, were excavated all over the world. Each of the heads give out powerful energy capable of destroying large areas. Using those twelve stoned statues, humanity had barely overcome the threat of extinction called the "Equatorial Winter". But the stoned statues had forced humanity to construct colossal suits of armour as their bodies and demanded that the humans fight each other in a war known as World’s Wisest War.
yes, I'm back for the time being. after a very long break from my blog, I have decided to make a few changes to my posts. I don't wanna explain the changes here because its pretty much self explanatory once you see my previous posts. anyways, I won't be as active as last time where I will post every single day. this time, I will only post as long as I feel like it.
well anyways, I'm trying to expand my very very small database whenever I got the time. of course it will definitely not be as big as Anime News Network, but I will try to add as many as I can. for now, I'm only adding the shows which I have on my computer right now. it will probably take a long time for me to move on to anime titles which I do not have on my hardrive.
oh yeah, if you want to use my database for information, its best that you do not fully trust it. I may make errors here and there, so its best that you check their official websites, or trusting websites like Anime News Network and AniDB. or maybe you want to see if the anime's official soundtrack or your favourite singer's CDs are released. in that case you might want to try CDJapan.
thats all for today. I will try to make my database as accurate as possible so please forgive me for any inaccuracy. cya!
