The Feeling Of Being Drenched In Cold Rain

This band has been the cold rain that has been pouring down on me. 凛として時雨 (Ling Toshite Sigure).

The refreshing chills sent down my spine and throughout my body, they are awesome.

Before I begin, listen to these.

I’m not one who excels at put down the feelings I get from the music I hear into words, and I really fail at describing whatever I get from music that just blows my mind. But I’ll try.

Q & A

Just by the title, I never would have guessed that this would be the latest piece of work by Adachi Mitsuru. What does the title mean anyway? Question and Answer?

Kasujiruzu: An Interesting Trio

The reason why I’ve decided to mention 粕汁ず,a Japanese band which I spotted on Youtube while searching for Radwimps covers, is simple. These guys, and girl, simply adore the alter ego (味噌汁’s) of one of my favourite bands, and they all share the goal of performing together with 味噌汁’s.

Don’t mind the afros (Hey, an afro did help Luffy win a battle!) and school uniform outfits, just enjoy their performance.

So far, 粕汁ず has recorded 2 originally composed songs.

I knew a few of the people from quite some time back, but there were a few who were totally new faces.


In case you don’t know, I have quite a distaste for Miku

I casually expressed that I had some experience with Japanese, and had taken the JLPT3 examination and passed.

Meeting New Japanese Female Students Is Great, Yet A Torture

Each time this happens, the process of meeting them is nice. But it’s just a fleeting dream.

In case you were curious, a girl commented on the shirt and how she liked Evangelion, while the rest know of it too. Evangelion is mainstream in Japan, just like Pokemon and Doraemon. Hence, it’s not the Nerv logo shirt which is supposed to be a high level stealth ninja, since I didn’t have Ayanami Rei printed across my chest.
