I figured that I do not have time to post anything (except for this) in my blog for this period of time. You see, school reopens on Monday and I have not finished ANY of my holiday homework. Haha, guess my bet with Marv and Valentin is gonna lose... Ah well. I'm gonna try my best to finish up everything tomorrow and if a miracle happens, I will finish everything =). Which is highly impossible...
I will be back probably on Monday or Tuesday, so until then take care people! See you soon! d-(~.^)z
In a world rife with deadly creatures called "yoma"; half-human, half-yoma female warriors exists. These female warriors have come to be popularly known as Claymores, after the immense claymores they wield. Claymores are often alienated from and feared by humans due to their incredible powers, their relation to Yomas, and generally aloof attitudes. Humans will often call them "silver-eyed witches/slayers" or "monsters". The story of Claymore follows the adventure of a lowly ranked Claymore named, Clare. During one of her countess missions, she met a boy named, Raki. Looking back at her childhood, Clare sees herself in the young boy and therefore decided to 'adopt' him. During their travels through towns and cities, meeting friends and foes, their relationship grew and their bonds strengthened.
Ok, I didn't update yesterday because I was feeling a little lazy. Well you can't blame me because Design & Technology is a VERY tiring subject... Man I sure hope I can get my artefact done soon. Anyways, there's only a few more days left before school starts, and I haven't finish ANY homework... Talk about pro. I'm soooo gonna die this weekend, but oh well... You can say "you deserved it" I guess...

Three Fine Single Album Releases =)
:
Yesterday night was a great night indeed. Three Single albums had been released and also, new subbed episode of Romeo X Juliet =). Well anyways, here are the three Single albums:
Romeo X Juliet OP Single - Inori ~You Raise Me Up~ [Lena Park]
For those Romeo X Juliet fans, rejoice!! Today is the release of its opening song "Inori ~You Raise Me Up". I have personally been waiting for this and DYING to have it. I'm sure that majority of you know, this was also sung by Josh Groban. Actually, the song was first sung by Irish singer Brian Kennedy, but the most popular version is probably Josh Groban's. The original music was written by Secret Garden's Rolf Løvland and the lyrics by Brendan Graham. For this Single album, Lena Park (Korean singer) is the vocalist and I have to admit that the Japanese version was very well done! She sang an English version too, but it not as good as the Japanese version. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed listening to it. The only disappointment I had for this is the CD label... It does not have any art on it at all. It is just a plain blue disc with the Copyright words encircling the edge of the CD. Well, at least the content is great, so I couldn't really care less for the CD label design =).
Tracklisting
1) Inori ~You Raise Me Up~ 2) You Raise Me Up 3) Inori ~You Raise Me Up~ (Instrumental)
Touka Gettan OP Single - Yume Oboro [Kitamura Eri With. Ise Mariya & Hayami Saori & Yamagata Satomi]
I haven't started watching much of this anime (stopped at around episode five or so). Despite watching five episodes of it, I am still clueless as to what is going on. Anyways, I'm not really waiting for this release. Personally, I like the third track in this Single (Chiisaki Shi no Youni) more than the opening song (Yume Oboro). Included in this Single is a track called "Danshou". I have no idea what it is for, but it is jus a short talk by one of the seiyus.
Tracklisting
1) Yume Oboro 2) Danshou 3) Chiisaki Shi no Youni 4) Yume Oboro (Original Karaoke) 5) Chiisaki Shi no Youni (Original Karaoke)
Touka Gettan ED Single - Kono Sekai ga Itsuka wa [Hayami Saori & Mariya Ise]
Well, what I have to say about this anime has been stated in my comment on its Opening Single. For the ending single, I quite enjoyed listening to the third track (Sora ni wa Sora ga Aru Dake). I feel it is better than the ending song, but then again it is just my opinion. Just like its opening Single, this contains five tracks and includes a track entitled "Danshou", which is a very short talk by another one of the seiyus.
Tracklisting
1) Kono Sekai ga Itsuka wa 2) Danshou 3) Sora ni wa Sora ga Aru Dake 4) Kono Sekai ga Itsuka ws (Original Karaoke) 5) Sora ni wa Sora ga Aru Dake (Original Karaoke)

Romeo X Juliet ED Single - Cyclone [12012]
:
Well, today is another release of a Single album! This time it is Romeo X Juliet's ending, Cyclone. Honestly, I don't really like this ending... I just think that a rock music don't really fit the anime (the opening is bloody beautiful though!). Well, now it is just a few days wait (20 June) and its opening Single (Inori ~You Raise Me Up~) will be out! Now THAT I must get. People who watched this show probably already knew that the opening song was taken from Josh Groban's "You Raise Me Up". It seems like the singer (Lena Park) sang both the Japanese version and the English version, because I heard the English version in episode 7 (great episode!). They changed the Lyrics a little, but it is still a beautiful song =).

Suzuka Added To Database
:
Well, I have added yet another anime to my little database, and this time it is Suzuka! I remember watching this at the beginning of this year, and I loved it! Ok, so I love a lot of animes... Anyways, fans of the love-romance genre and also love triangles would find this show more than satisfactory. Couples may learn a thing or two from this =).
Yamato Akitsuki moves from his rural home in Hiroshima prefecture and travels to Tokyo alone to study in one of the athletics-oriented high schools located within the area. Before arriving at his new home he walks past his new school and sees a young girl practicing high jump at the track field. He was immediately mesmerised by her beauty and falls in love with her at first sight. He was shocked when he realised later that the girl, Suzuka, is actually living next door to him. Because he pursues Suzuka, Yamato joins the track and field team in hopes of impressing her. Since joining the team, he discovers that he has the potential to become a top 100 meter sprinter. Yamato's life begins to change little by little as the story intertwines his pursuit of love and athletics.
