Anime, Otakism and the Rantings And Ravings of Japanese Popular Culture
The title above is bullshit. This post is basically another one about the trip I just came back from.
I took quite a number of sceneries photos during my trip. Not all turned out good due to factors such as poor lighting or shaky hands, but I suppose some are passable.
The only thing in this post related to the title
This is a non-anime related post, but you can still go ahead and enjoy the photos.
During my trip, I had my fair share of encounters with some local traps and lolis. Are they hawt or are they not? That’s for you to decide.
Having watched these two awesome baseball anime, I felt greatly inspired to write about them.
As stated above, both Oofuri and Major hits homeruns, and are awesome in different ways. In my opinion, Major scores Grandslam, a homerun fully loaded with 3 runners, while Oofuri scores an ordinary homerun with no runners at the bases.
Now, before the fiery Oofuri fanboys and girls start pitching at me with their gyroballs, let me assure you that I am in no way dissing Oofuri. In fact, I have absolutely no reason to do so as I love it.

I was looking through Tokyopop’s website, searching for the details and release date of Battle Royale Ultimate Volume 2, when I noticed something ironic.
I just arrived in Vietnam an hour ago, and finally checked in to the hotel. On the bus ride to the hotel, I realised how true naming Vietnam country of motorcycles is. The bikes are exactly like critters running all over the place!

This blog will be on hiatus as I pack my bags and embark on an exciting 7 day journey with Kino. I will only be back on the 9th of February.
My hawt travel companion
So where am I going?
After watching the first 2 episodes of Honey and Clover’s dorama, I must say I quite hooked to it. I don’t know how much the dorama differs from the anime or live action movie, since I have not watched either of them. Hence, I am unable to comment on how awesome/sucky the dorama is compared to the other 2. However, I do know a beauty, be it 2D or 3D, when I see one.
Narumi Riko as Hanamoto Hagumi
I wrote some post on Yaoi and Shonen Ai out of pure boredom during a lecture more than 6 months ago. 6 months later, I totally forgot I actually posted about it. That is, until some fiery commenters came in with the flames and started to set that post on fire. Hurry, dial 995!!!
There’s some Yuri action going on between police officers!!! CALL THE POLICE!!!
Or so I think. Gainax has released an uncountable ton of Evangelion artbooks, but none of them can beat the upcoming release, ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版：序 全記録全集, which roughly translates to Evangelion 1.0 Complete Work Records. Even the total cost Groundwork of Evangelion Movie #1 and #2 which sums up to be 7,000 yen pales in comparison.
