I have moved!

2009-04-04T03:15:10Z

After I fell off the side of the earth with this blog, I decided to move to wordpress. I like VOX, but I felt that moving to wordpress would allow me and to motivate me to write more, which was the goal of this blog originally. I also feel like wo...

I think I might cry of boredom - Naichau Kamo

2009-01-21T02:11:54Z

Writing this, I realize I never reviewed Pepper Keibu properly. All that really needs to be said was "I enjoyed it a lot, Hello! Project generally does well with covers." I've never actually been as disappointed with a single as I am with Naichau...

Hello, Everyone, Long Time No See!

2008-12-14T04:10:56Z

This going to be a tl;dr, so you can ignore this if you want, haha >_< When people say that your junior year of high school is the hardest, they really mean it. I have two AP classes to deal with (AP Language and Composition, good class, lots of...

The Fedora is the coolest. Gachinko de Ikou! - Buono! Review

2008-10-23T01:52:02Z

Woo, my life is starting to slow down a bit. Marching Band will be over November First. Hopefully I can catch up...I probably wont be able to, though...so please bear with me. D: I honestly don't find this song catchy at all. Whenever I try to re...

I don't even know how to react to something like this.

2008-10-19T14:58:48Z

So I wake and check the news in the Hello! Project world, to see that half of Hello! Project is graduating in March. What...!? Its not as though some of their graduations weren't expected (Nakazawa, Melon, Yasuda), but did they ALL have to gradua...

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to go on a half-hiatus.

2008-09-13T03:10:18Z

Same as last year, I am swamped with things to do. Therefore, I will not be able to create reviews/other posts very often. Here is an example of my schedule: Monday- Nothing, but I tend to get swamped with homework these days and I may start wor...

A Game of Fiery Handball, Anyone? - Edo no Temari Uta II

2008-08-18T02:53:15Z

I apologize for the lateness of this. I actually had this done last week, but Band Camp came up so fast, I didn't have time to put it up! My apologies. Please enjoy my review on C-ute's Latest Single, Edo no Temari Uta II! Oh, and if you can't tel...

They Have Really Big Earrings...! - Buono! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Review

2008-07-18T03:45:59Z

This sounds much more like an "anime song" than Renai Rider or Honto no Jibun does to me. At the same, Buono! has a unique sound that makes Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! sound like it is not part of an anime at all, and just a great sounding single. Kiss! Ki...

Oh Goodness, Now They're Monkeys! - Yuke Yuke Monkey Dance Review

2008-07-08T04:23:35Z

I'm going to try this a bit differently than usual! When I heard the radio preview to this song I thought "Joy. Another Berryz song full of nothing but Risako solo lines". Then I saw the PV, and realized that everyone got solo lines in this song...

I am a slowpoke when taking surveys, my apologies.

2008-06-23T16:24:00Z

I have wanted to respond to Misa's J-music Survey for quite a while now, I'm just being slow about it. My problem: It takes me a while to remember what my first J-music really was! I think I finally got it, now. 1. What was the first Japanese son...
