Detroit Metal City: The Movie

I could have caught the movie much earlier last year, but I chose the Gurren Lagann movie over this. It’s not like I’m regretting my choice though, since both movies have their own strengths.


甘い甘い甘い甘い~ 恋人~!

Without a doubt, the DMC movie is entertaining. Needless to say, anyone who has been reading the manga, or watching the OVAs would be cackling away throughout the duration of this film. Even for those who have yet to be introduced to DMC through other mediums, the movie would still prove to be great humour material.

The Dreaded JLPT 3 Result Letter

Actually it wasn’t dreaded since I was certain that I would pass. There was only a single question that remained. How well/poor did I actually fare?

How I came across their music was really random. I was browsing some band’s MySpace page and there was a comment with a link to Ajisai Town’s website. Browsing around a little, I found it pretty interesting that the band does their own illustrations, with a character each to portray themselves. So, I decided to give their music a go.
