Hi everyone! Today is Monday! :D
sad...
anyway, to make me happy, something nostalgic should cheer me up! Something nostalgic always cheers you up, don't you think? (must be good memories though) as you sit back rethink of all those memories when you were younger, all those happy memories...someday you just want to bring them back, but you know, it's not possible.
But just thinking about it makes me really happy.
Do you guys remember this long blog post I posted here before? About how to categorise music? Well, I just thought of something. Songs that you listen to somehow from your childhood is somehow your heart music too. Even if the song sucks, or it's just normal, but listening to it will still nevertheless makes you smile. Ahh, as it brings back memories... ...
I hope to know all of you guys' nostalgic heart music! :D though I know some of you never listen to music when you were young, which is sad, which means you won't have these nostalgic heart music, but well! Sooner or later you will have! Trust me! How could you possibly not have listened to a song and thought of your happy memories of the past?
But let me introduce to you my first two nostalgic heart music!! I really really love it! I really hope you do too, but it's just a normal song that means a lot to me.
These two are music from around my primary school days, from an anime called Hunter X Hunter. It's a really cool anime, I'll probably introduce it some other day (I got Mok Huimin to watch it ahahaha!) I used to watch a lot of episodes a day, and there's this day I stayed up late (for the first time you know), hiding from my parents just to watch it. And then I was scolded and I cried to sleep. Then my mother apologized and let me watch it the next day :D then I was so happy! So happy! So very very happy! :D
Ah what good (weird) memories...
This is the opening song of the anime, the one which I could almost memorise! :D
Heehee btw let me tell you I loooove the white hair guy! :DD (he's called Killua and he's an assassin -- which got me into Maplestory more haha)
This is the opening song of the third season (it has four seasons...)
I loved these two songs! I always sing it in the bath whenever I feel happy :D It's two of my favourite songs!! (I can safely says it overtake my jaejoong's songs :DD)
Okay! Hope you liked it! Really hope you like it because these songs really really mean a lot to me! ^^
as a Youtube user says:

Indeed! Sigh...
Hope to know more of your nostalgic heart music! :DD
God I really know how to make up words, huh? xD

I shall post today about my beloved voice actors and actresses! Okay general background, they are actress/actors behind the scene for any anime, and in Japan, apparently, they are really really famous. Really famous. In Japan, the voice actor is equivalent to America's Brad Pitt. I guess it's because of the culture, but...i like it :)
Oh well, to get you a brief start and overview, I shall introduce with the most famous example of all: Pokemon! I'm sure everyone knows Pokemon. Look at this video about Pikachu's voice actress. It's so AWESOME!
It's so cute right? Yup yup, that's the main reason why I love voice actors/ actresses, they make my experience of watching animes wonderful and fantastic. They have cute voices, or deep, sexy voices, their voices are all unique and great, and each of them are really really good actors but with an extremely sexy voice. And their voices normally matches their character really really well.
Here is a video (quite long, you don't have to watch it all, just watch it to know what I mean about their coolness. Though I highly recommend you guys to watch it all). It's about how they actually carry out their...er...'voice acting'. It's really cool. They are really into character and stuff. AND THEIR VOICE IS AWESOME! Though I regret it not being subbed. But it's interesting to watch anyway. They are just awesome.
(If you don't have time please please just watch till 4.22, watch that guy, he's awesooommeee!)
That's why I like them. Their jobs are not as simple as we think. Their jobs are cool! Really cool. They are really great actors, that probably can't do very well with facial expression, but their voice acting is great, and their voices are great too! And voice actors are like superstars, and idols, and they must be pretty and good looking and they must be able to sing.
So being a voice actor is not easy, and it's a VERY COOL JOB!
And most of them are girls teehee ^^
And my favourite voice actress is ROMI PAKU!!!!! She's really cute. Okay actually she's quite old I think. But AGE DOES NOT MATTER! The below video is about her talking to her fellow fullmetal alchemist colleague. She's the deep, low, sexy voice one. The other one has such unbearably cute voice that I can't really stand.
(You can start watching from 1.17, because the stuff before I cant really get...)
As you can see, she's quite...erm...weird...but well, I like her voice :) And her character fits me. :) If you know what I mean. I really like her voice!
But I don't think anybody would second me on that, because you must watch the anime before you like that voice. It's like watching a drama, and one day, the person that sings the drama's background music started singing, of course you'll get all excited and all right? It's the same for me. I have been watching FMA for so long, suddenly I hear it being said so freely, I would get suuuper excited!!!! Like super. If I get sicker I might say I m*sturbate over her voice. Like my dream has come true and all.
Sigh... Oh well, I hope you know her more. :) Because I really like her. Her voice, actually, there's not enough video to show me her character. But I think she's quite nice too :)
She sings too.
But it's not very nice, is it? Oh well, she's not a professional singer. But her voice quite sexy right? ^^
Yay, end of post, I hope you know more about who I like. :) Which is, basically, animes. Which I have sadly stopped... Yay. :)
But I should say something which is ultimately true every time: I LOVE ANIMES AND MANGAS!!!!!

Today, we visited Kranji War memorial. I personally think that it's a memorable and enriching trip. I will hang the Japanese surrender form on my wall, to honour those that died defending for this country, to tell them, that in our hearts, their death and efforts will not, will never, ever, be in vain.
I realised that I know quite a lot of what happened in World War one and two. Either because of my brother (who kept showing me war films even if they are rated and I was underage *notice the use of was), or because of my slight (notice my use of word slight) interest in the other part of World War two. Or maybe it's just that I am not living in the rock after all and I might miraculously have some general knowledge despite how little I read the papers. (I mean, I sometimes still watch the news you know...)
And another reason, the biggest reason for my huge knowledge about World War one and two and the other countries involved in it, was because of...
HETALIA AXIS POWERS!!!!!!
Seriously, I learn a lot, I repeat, a lot of history from this show. You may not like animes, but this is one must-watch anime. I am not introducing this as an anime, but a simplified documentary of what happened in the world wars (a bit of parody too haha). So, in order to honour our soldiers that died, we should try our best to know what happened during those times.
BY WATCHING HETALIA!!! HAHA YAYY!
Let me briefly explain what happens. It is quite confusing since you're new to the characters and in the first episodes, there is an introduction to so many characters. But basically, it starts off with America trying to discuss about the environment (you know...global warming...) And they are having a world's conference.
If you noticed, the characters are portrayed in a very stereotypical way. Like how Greece is attracted to women, how America is so boastful and proud and hero-ish, how France hates both America and England, how Italy is so stupid and how serious Germany is haha.
It's really interesting, the way they portrayed each countries. I really want Singapore to appear...I want to know how Singapore would be like. We would probably be very bootlicker-ish haha and trying to please every single country. Haha. I would totally love this anime better if Singapore appears!
I hope you guys like this. If not, go ahead and complain lol. But it's so nice, how could you not like it? Oh well.
If you liked it (very good!), then you can continue your watch here (which is also where I downloaded the video...)
Yay. Know more about History. And love Switzerland and Liechtenstein :) Haha and Germany (but I personally prefer Holy Roman Empire!)

This is a very shocking piece of news...
A Japanese comic series belittling and attacking Korean idol singers has been circulating on the web and recently caught the attention of Korean fans.
Titled “The Investigation of the Fabricated Hallyu Boom,” the comic was first uploaded on Japanese web boards and images can still be found on Yahoo! Japan and other portal sites.
The comic begins with a former Korean idol, who now works as a hostess, meeting with her client and a reporter in order to tell the ‘truth’ about the lives of Korean idol stars.
She claims that SNSD and KARA, who are both ‘trending stars’ of Japan, all perform sexual favors, and that the Korean government invests $150 million USD into a Japanese entertainment agency that ‘fabricates’ the Hallyu wave.
Using the case of SNSD’s airport entrance in Japan, she claims that the government lied about 800 fans waiting to greet them and that there were actually only 100 people consisting of employees from a company that fabricates the Hallyu wave.
The comic features other scenes such as KARA dancing their famous ‘butt dance’ naked, and even mentions actress Jang Ja Yeon, who committed suicide in 2009 due to pressures to provide sexual favors and her slave contract with her agency.
The comic claims, “Providing sexual favors in the Korean entertainment industry is something that is definite. This comic was based off of investigations,” further enraging fans.
Fans have found that the comic is a part of a literary coterie magazine created for and by ‘otakus’ of a particular fetish.
Regarding the controversy, officials of SM Entertainment and DSP Media revealed, “We will be prioritizing our understanding of the issue first, and will be paying close attention to the case.”
This is seriously... a very shocking piece of news...
HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE? My most beloved, most respected, favourite, most idolised manga, my hobby, my life, the one and only thing which I would be willing to dedicate my time to, to especially write fanfictions, to print out pictures, to make it all into a scrapbook, to save up my money just to buy one volume of manga...
AND THIS IS WHAT THE OUTCOME IS?
How could you betray my trust, manga? HOW COULD YOU?
Anyway, looking at the way the manga is drawn, I doubt that it could be one of my favourite mangakas, so it's not really a big problem. It's probably a stupid idiotic person that absolutely hates how the fame of Korean greater than the fame of Japanese (which I sometimes feel too).
But that doesn't mean you could do something like that? This is so despicable! Writing stories like that, it definitely cannot be true, there's no way it could be true! Even if it is true, you shouldn't draw it in such an insulting way, as if the Kpop people are laughing stock. I do not understand why Kpop is getting more popular, but that doesn't mean I would do something like that to disgrace them, right? I mean, what did they do to you, why do you have to do such things to them?
We should never, never, make fun of other people, and other countries' culture (pop culture in this case).
But I should totally scold Japan right now. All my experiences tell me that Japan is quite self-centred. Everything they do, everything, is revolved around them. Like the 'Sinking of Japan', and and and... I don't know, just everything they do is about them. Even if there are one or two good ones about other countries, they are seldom famous. But this doesn't mean you can go around writing disgusting stuff like that to insult the other country that has gotten more fame than you!
It's true before the Hallyu wave, Japan was the most famous country, with their mangas and Jpop. BUT STILL!
Okay, I must say I am very very disappointed at the manga industry now. How can they publish this kind of thing? Unless the Japanese government (or Korean) do something about it, I will never ever let it go. You have disappointed me, manga....
Anyway, we should never have hasty generalisation! One manga is like that doesn't mean all mangas are! :D This is probably one manga you should never ever read in your life. But other mangas are really nice too! So don't let this one stupid manga bring your impression down! xD
I'll probably start introducing some really awesome mangas over here or something :D
