The Extravaganza of Haruhi Suzumiya

Posted by Shin

Released just recently on DVD, this is a fan conference cum live concert featuring seiyuus from the aforementioned show that took place in March. The entire was around 4 hours long; the first half was a discussion panel with the director, character designer and the main cast and a short skit featuring the SOS Brigade while the second half featured live songs performed by the seiyuus.

MC Shiraishi (WA-WA-WASUREMONO Tanaguchi)

MC Matsumoto (Kyon's other pal whose name I forgot)

Aya Hirano (Haruhi)

Sugita Tomokazu (Char Aznable Kyon)

Gotou Yuuko (Mi-mi-mirakuru-mikuru-run)

Chihara Minori (Yuki)

Ono Daisuke (Itsuki)

Matsuoka Yuki (Tsuruya nyoro~n)

Kuwatani Natsuko (Asakura Ryoko)

Aoki Sayaka (Kyon's sis)

Shiratori Yuri (Green hair chick Emiri)

Mr Director Ishihara Tatsuya

Character Designer Ikeda Shouko

It was a sold out event, with both audience and performers being very enthusiastic. The highlight of the event was when the 3 main female seiyuus performed the legendary Hare Hare Yukai dance, which was very well done indeed. Then there was the encore that featured Kyon and Itsuki. My favourite was when Sugita performed his song and this person showed up:

Lucky Star – 16

Posted by Shin

Usually, there's no real reason for me to cover this show, since the story is very straightforward and easy to comprehend even without subs. Which is why I'm not going to summarize this week's episode and just let the screencaps do the talking.

Interestingly enough, Tsukasa herself realizes she bears resemblance to To Heart's Akari Kamigishi, which is then again not so surprising, since she was given given the same outfit the latter wore back in one of the episodes. Also, it was pretty neat to see Konata don Haruhi's outfit and even changing her voice back and fro from Konata to Haruhi when she was taking down the orders from her friends. Then of course there's the impromptu Hare Hare Yukai dance though we don't get to see much of it. And then there's Akira's concert. LAWL. Shin out.

Word Of The Day : Weaboo

Posted by Shin

A negative term directed to anyone overly obsessed with Japanese culture to the point where they become annoying.Used frequently on the image boards of 4chan.

Most weaboos are uneducated about their obsession of choice and are often noobs who are overly zealous, trying to impress others with their otaku knowledge. Another trait of a weaboo is their desire to "be Japanese".

While the two terms are often fused together, weaboos are very different from anime fans or enthusiasts. A fan may be just as enthusiastic and knowlegable
about Japanese culture, mainly anime, but they neither boast about their knowledge nor call themselves otaku(because of its known negative connatation). - UrbanDictionary.com
