Haganai Getting Anime Adaptation!!

Kazearashi — Wed, 18 May 2011 15:49:10 +0000

YATTA! I forsee this coming but still, I feel so happy it’s going to be animated This gonna be great ^^ For those who wonder what is this, Haganai is a short for “Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai” hence, Ha Ga Nai. It’s not me who call this that but I learnt that from Yukachi… xD Anyway, read more for info

So in short, Haganai story is…

Hasegawa Kodaka has transferred schools, and he’s having a hard time making friends. It doesn’t help that his blond hair tends to make people think he’s a delinquent. One day, he runs into his bad-tempered solitary classmate Yozora while she’s talking animatedly to her imaginary friend Tomo. Realizing that neither of them have any actual friends, they decide that the best way to alter this situation is to form a club and start recruiting.

That is how “Rinjinbu” was formed, a club specifically designed for people who don’t have very many friends. As other lonely classmates slowly join their little club, they’ll try to learn how to build friendships through cooking together, playing games, and other group activities. But will this group of relationship-challenged misfits really be able to get along?

Copas from Baka-Updates…

Well, Haganai is one of the very fascinating Light Novel that I’m following After the news of the drama CD coming up, I know that the anime is also due soon… So anyway, the seiyuu cast is as follows:

Kashiwazaki Sena: Itou Kanae
Mikazuki Yozora:Inoue Marina
Hasegawa Kodaka: Kimura Ryouhei
Hasegawa Kobato: Hanazawa Kana
Takayama Maria: Iguchi Yuka
Shiguma Rika: Fukuen Misato
Kusunoki Yukimura: Yamamoto Nozomi

Apart from Yamamoto Nozomi, all of the above are well known seiyuus… and of course my favourites too! <3

I’m really looking forward for this ^^ and also on the end of this month, Haganai Manga Vol.2 is coming out on the 23rd and the Light Novel Vol.6is coming out on the 25th with the extra Drama CD… Can’t wait to listen to it!!

Azunyan officially better for licking than Nagi, winning the AnimeSaimoe 2010 tournament!

rihoko — Sat, 16 Oct 2010 19:42:49 +0000

This year’s anime saimoe tournament, where fans vote on their favorite “moe” loli anime character to lick their monitor screens at, from thousands of preliminary entries, saw a fiercely fought quarter-final match where loli mahjong Maestro Amae Koromo-tan took down Level 5 Cuteness Saten Ruiko, only to be easily whacked down by uber riche loli Sanzenin Nagi in the semi-finals. The other side of the semi-finals saw Nodocchi (Hanamura Nodoka from Saki), who barely managed to win another Kugimiya Rie-loli, Shakugan no Shana’s Shana in the quarter finals, humiliated and taught the harsh reality that in the moe world, bra size means nothing by unstoppable, but always lickable moeblob phenomenon – the one and only reason to keep your monitors clean – Nakano Azusa from K-on!, or commonly called by Yui-senpai and perverted oniichans, Azunyan~. For Azunyan’s fans, the outcome of the final match on 16 October 2010 between rich and tsundere, Nagi and Lick-for-a-better-world loli, Azunyan was only too obvious.

The unbelievers grouped up and backed Nagi’s supporters to overcome the powerful wave of the computer screen-licking, moe hungry army of Azunyan’s supporters, however Azunyan’s flawless victory was inevitable. From the voting chart below, we see Azunyan took an early lead and maintained it until the very end. It was indeed a hopeless race for Nagi’s goons. Albeit, they didn’t do too bad, with the final scores at:

Winner: Nakano Azusa 1516
Runner-up: Sanzenin Nagi 1339

Nagi probably never had a chance, despite all the cheating and rallying at random portals by Nagi’s supporters… then again I’m sure Azunyan’s supporters also coerced random people to join the vote for Her Moe-sty.
On a side note: Last year’s winner, Aisaka Taiga from Toradora! was ineligible for this year’s tournament, which covers only anime still running from 2009 Summer season to 2010 Summer Season

So, Congratulations to Azunyan for her victory, and hopefully, the K-on!! Movie will have plenty of Azunyan’s moments for fans to pause and lick!

: azunyan live action coming to your screen nyan~

[pic by pantarou san]

For those who’s been watching pixelated, laggy live anime via keyholeTV, this may provide you with a new alternative- supposing that it doesn’t go haywire when a popular anime actually airs.
For those who’s never even watched anime live, well, here’s an awesome way to do it!

All you’ll be needing is microsoft’s silverlight and a decent internet connection, then you can head over to http://bssubs.net/live/ to start watching weird japanese TV shows now! (let me know if you catch one of them bikini TV game shows *cough*)

It goes without saying that live Japanese TV do not have English subtitles, so for those who can’t watch anime without subs.. err… you can go watch yui-nyan for 10 minutes to improve your Japanese. Good Luck! >:D

Aisaka Taiga Crowned Anime Saimoe 2009 Champion!

rihoko — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 11:55:19 +0000

Congratulations Taiga!

Well it looks like an early Christmas present for La Bellissima Aisaka Taiga .. from TV anime ToraDora! for the less educated.. Albeit, Ami will surely have a thing or 2 to say about this absurd result.

Last Saturday evening, October 17, 2009, the anime saimoe 2009 tournament that ran from late September (tournament proper), ended with the bokken swinging, most-moe-when-asleep loli, Aisaka Taiga, defeating K-On! Bokkee my-IQ-is-naisho-moe Hirasawa Yui in an exciting day-long fan’s vote competition. Coincidentally or not, the K-1 Max 2009 finals will also be held this coming October 26,2009.. but before the Japanese go and watch the boys slug it out at each other, they had the wonderful chance of imagining their favorite moe lolis wrestle it out in strawberry parfait (cuz mud simply isn’t moe) for the saimoe2009′s crown.

The best 4 included Saki’s Nodochichi (fat-penguin fetish girl) and 1-eye blind (not really) Mihoko as well. To best honest, I thought the other more moe lolis would have won (koromo, koromo).. but it seems like taiga fans are strong.. even now- roughly half a year after the show ended. .. That said, ToraDora!’s ami and minorin were left to diss at the whole tournament, having been defeated in earlier group rounds. Well, my irrelevant opinions aside, Congratulations moe bokken QUEEN Aisaka Taiga.. I’ll make sure a real loli dethrone you next year. >_< kukuku *cough*

Taiga pretending to be surprised

I’m pretty much in the opinion that a few fans were scared Taiga would haunt them for the rest of their lives if they didn’t vote her, but without further ado, let’s have a look at the Finals match-up cards.

The fact that the best 4 consisted of 2 characters from Loli Mahjong anime, Saki, was not surprising at all since they came pretty strong at the beginning (although nodochichi was totally wrong)… but to think that both of them would be knocked off in the semi-finals is a bit sad… Wondering where Azu-nyan went? Well blame taiga… then again, if she beat azu-nyan, she can’t possibly end up as runner up, since it’s normal that the hordes of the losing characters would back behind the moe-organism that defeated the loli-of-their-perverted-dreams… I happen to be a Koromo fan… tsk.. shuddup. =_=

Upon inspection of the final votes graph from the time the tournament began at 01:00 JP to 23:00 JP time 17 October, blue line being Yui and red line being Taiga, it is apparent that with Yui’s initial “clean” lead during the twilight hours, the mischievous taiga fans started to play underhanded/dirty tactics including twitter/sms spams and calling random uneducated grade school kids on the streets to vote for what a loli they apparently have little to no idea about (a sample msg would probably be something like: “omg, saimoe 2009 tournament final is today, vote for taiga now and i’ll burn you my entire taiga hentai collection!”. Fear the power of ecchi, for by 11 Am, Taiga has taken the irrevertable lead, to which Yui fans could do nothing but to inch closer using similar tactics.. before realizing.. shit, taiga hentai doujin >>>> yui hentai.

Final scores:
Taiga: 1332 votes vs Yui: 1278 votes

Ph33r, teh Ero Tsundere Loli.

This year’s tournament was still filled with Hayate no Gotoku, ToraDora! characters, with minor addition K-On! characters to spicen up the tournament.. Hopefully, we don’t see more nanoha characters back in the tournament next year due to the upcoming Nanoha 1st movie in January 2010.

Sorry for the incoherent writing as usual, I’ll leave you with ami-hime sama’s video. Rihoko, signing off :3

PS: To think my first post in the blog’s revival would be about taiga, another one of them run-of-the-mill kugimiya rie tsundere loli.. aaa blasphemy.
*ducks the apparently, politically powerful taiga fans*
