Kimi Ni Todoke Episode 12 - Romantic Feelings

Dec 23, 2009


cr: AnimeSeason | freemoneysubs

Yeah! It's finally out yo! And it's a great episode. I can't stop squealing while watching it.

「Spoiler Alert」

I really love Ayane-chan! She's my favorite next to Sawako-chan. She's very much aware of what's happening around and not to mention she's pretty clever herself as well. She protects Sawako, and I love the part where she was talking to Kurumi. I guess Kurumi wasn't expecting to get 'caught'.

I'm very much happy to know that Sawako finally understood how she truly felt for Kazehaya. We'd have to thank Ryu for that. I wasn't expecting for Ryu to tell Sawako how he really felt for Chizuru. I love Chizuru to death but I wish I could see her looking a bit more feminine. And hopefully see Ryu and Chizuru dating. Lol.

I really hate Kurumi but I should say, I kind of liked her too. Why? Cause even though her real motive is to take Kazehaya away from Sawako but then, she doesn't realize that she's helping Sawako to realize how she truly feels towards Kazehaya and thus, leading Kazehaya and Sawako together in the end. I love her role though.

I cannot wait for the next episode. One week seems so long for me already and they'd be airing the next episode next year on January 5th due to holidays. ττ ττ It sucks but I'll be patient for that! Anyway, I'm spazzing like crazy here, and I was too noisy squealing while watching it. My siblings would throw things at me to shut up. ─ε─ Oh well, seems like Kurumi's supposed-to-be-result didn't happen. And OMG!!! Even I myself thought Kazehaya would turn around and leave disappointed and heartbroken but NO!!! He ran towards Sawako, grabbed her hand and took her away from Ryu!! OMFG!! *dies*

Oookaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Imma stop spazzing now.
'Til next time!
Ja ne~

I am in love with Kimi ni Todoke!

Dec 17, 2009


Don’t we just love December? Well I know I do. And it feels so much better when I’m watching Kimi ni Todoke. It’s probably the second anime series I loved perfectly just by watching the first 1 minute of the video. Why? It’s because the main female character happens to be the type of anime girls that I like the most. Finally, I have successfully watched something that goes well with my taste. Not to mention I only watch the first few minutes and I instantly knew that I’ll like it… no, not actually like but LOVE it.

Kuronuma Sawako also known as “Sadako” is a high school student whose only wish is to make friends with everyone. Unfortunately, all the students seemed more scared and rather unwelcoming. People get scared of her due to the rumors about her and the way people misunderstand her. Well, she does have problems on expressing herself well that people misunderstood her quickly. Even how she looks kind of reminds you of Sadako herself, from “The Ring” movie. But her personality is the total opposite of the horrific girl that you’re trying to imagine. Sawako is a shy, innocent and honest type of girl. Others who were staying away from her because of how she resemble “Sadako” might not only be the reason but because she tends to shy away from other people too. Fortunately, everything seemed to change when Sawako and Kazehaya Shota started to talk to each other.

Kazehaya Shota was the very first person who talked to her and was able to treat her nicely. Sawako was used being responded by people with “I’m sorry, it’s okay, etc.” and Kazehaya Shota was the only person who was able to say “Thank you” to her. Kazehaya is quite popular at their school; everyone liked him, whether be it a girl or a boy. He’s really friendly, outgoing and a laid-back type of guy, not to mention how cute he really is that all girls from their school formed an alliance called “Kazehaya is Everyone’s” to have a peaceful rivalry. Kazehaya was basically the reason who changed Sawako’s life. Because of him, he was able to open Sawako’s world to others.


It’s a funny and interesting story per se that you might really love it as much as I do. I love how Sawako doesn’t seem to understand how she feels about Kazehaya yet. She’s too ignorant or should I say too innocent to know about love, love that’s more than just a friend that is. Kazehaya on the other hand, obviously loves her too but he gets easily nervous and shy at her when it comes to this. They’re cute, aren’t they?

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it once more, I am frigging in love with this anime! You will too, if you’ll give it a chance. I can finally watch a romantic comedy anime series without complaining how predictable the storyline is; because I know I’ll enjoy how each episode would lead to its end.

By the way, this anime series is still on going. The release date for the raw episode would be every Tuesday but you might as well wait after one or two days for it to be subbed. Well anyways, I’ll go back spazzing on how spazztistic each of its episodes are! I can’t wait for Tuesday to come.

Nodame Cantabile - An inspiring series

Nov 2, 2009


It’s been a long time since I last watched an anime. A few days ago I decided to watch one. I just randomly chose one title and watched the first episode – Nodame Cantabile. I think anyone who doesn’t seem to be interested about ‘classical music’ would find it boring. The main characters such as Megumi Noda and Sinichi Chiaki are quite interesting themselves which captivated me to watch further episodes.

Both of them have a contrasting personality although both of them are extremely talented. Let’s start with Megumi Noda also known as Nodame. Despite the fact that she is a girl, don’t be deceived with it. She can be messier and be really disorganized than men. She rarely takes a bath and keeps on wearing the same clothes two to three days in a row. Aside from her sloppy image, she can be really greedy when it comes to food. At some point, she may steal your lunch box whenever it has delicious foods in it. Fortunately, her grotesqueness doesn’t make her unattractive overall. Despite all that, she has a very big heart. She’s very affectionate and true to herself especially for her feelings for Chiaki.

But she has a big problem to deal with and that’s not just about her sloppiness but it’s about her passion for piano. True that she’s an amazing pianist and can play perfectly the same piece after listening to the one’s playing it only once. She plays the piano by ear and not by reading the music score. Because of it, she plays it according to her mood that sometimes she skips a note or adds a note while playing. Aside from that, she plays piano half-heartedly.

Sinichi Chiaki is the complete opposite of Nodame. He is a perfectionist that he may seem to have an obsessive-compulsive disorder. He’s very clean and organized, smart or should I say a genius. He’s very popular in their school that all women even some men falls in love with him. He is extremely talented in piano and violin but his real ambition is to become a conductor. Not only he’s a genius himself but what makes him even more popular is that he’s a very good looking man. He seems so perfect, don’t you think? He’s rich, handsome, smart, multi-lingual and talented and all that jazz. Who wouldn’t want to have him?

Unfortunately, he can be really attractive with all of these but one thing that makes him less attractive is being too arrogant and cocky. Just like Nodame, he also got a big problem for himself. As much as he wanted to study abroad to be one of the greatest conductor in the world, he just can’t because of his childhood phobia.

These two accidentally met and later on develop a romantic comedy drama. It’s really a fun series. I wasn’t able to sleep that day when I first watched it because I finished watching the full episodes. I’m sure you’ll have fun watching it too and I’ll make no bones about it. One thing that I'm a bit disappointed of is, too little romance. I wanted them to be really sweet and romantic sometimes. Overall, it's an excellent series.

I'm still not over about this, I'll soon watch the season two and the Japanese Drama of it. It'll be another non-stop marathon of Nodame Cantabile!

My Monthly Quote

It's pointless to just envy other people's worlds.
I have to change my world myself.
