Katawa Shoujo

2012-01-11T02:04:00.000-08:00

Katawa Shoujo is a bishoujo-style visual novel set in the fictional Yamaku High School for disabled children, located somewhere in modern Japan. Hisao Nakai, a normal boy living a normal life, has his life turned upside down when a congenital heart defect forces him to move to a new school after a long hospitalization. Despite his difficulties, Hisao is able to find friends—and perhaps love, if he plays his cards right. There are five main paths corresponding to the 5 main female characters, each path following the storyline pertaining to that character.

The story is told through the perspective of the main character, using a first person narrative. The game uses a traditional text and sprite-based visual novel model with an ADV text box.

Katawa Shoujo contains adult material, and was created using the Ren'Py scripting system. It is the product of an international team of amateur developers, and is available free of charge under the Creative Commons BY-NC-ND License

Characters

Hisao Nakai - main character

Troubled over his months-long stay at the hospital after his heart almost gave out and trying to adjust to his new surroundings, he is trying hard to find his place in the world. After being thrown into a new beginning, the chaotic circumstances have forced Hisao to rethink his apathetic disposition, especially regarding things like life, friendship and future.

Emi Ibarazaki

Birthday: March 14
Zodiac: Pisces
Blood Type: B
Height: 151 cm
Weight: 41 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 70/51/74
Hair: Light Brown
Eyes: Poplar Green

Despite being left with legs amputated below the knee, Emi is perhaps one of the most cheery, happy-go-lucky girls on the entire globe, let alone the school. Not one to be left in despair even after the accident that claimed her legs, Emi views her disability more as a blessing, her prosthetic legs having brought her to the heights of her ability on the track team rather than becoming a permanent obstacle.

Hanako Ikezawa

Birthday: July 10
Zodiac: Cancer
Blood Type: AB
Height: 164 cm
Weight: 52 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 86/56/84
Hair: Purple
Eyes: Grey Purple

At a young age, Hanako had a traumatic experience that left her life in shambles. Her father died when their home burned down in an accident, which also disfigured Hanako herself permanently. She is reclusive to the extreme, shunning from all other people to the point of actually panicking from any social contact. Her only trusted friend is Lilly, who has taken Hanako under her wing ever since the two were introduced to each other.

Lilly Satou

Birthday: February 7
Zodiac: Aquarius
Blood Type: A
Height: 171 cm
Weight: 59 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 89/61/89
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue

Blind since birth, Lilly is caring, responsible and friendly - the perfect foil to Hanako, her best friend, whom she shares an almost mother-daughter relationship with, in addition to her free time often being spent drinking tea alongside her companion. In class she is a diligent student, with her sense of confidence serving her well in her role as class representative of class 3-2.

Rin Tezuka

Birthday: March 13
Zodiac: Pisces
Blood Type: AB
Height: 161 cm
Weight: 50 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 83/54/78
Hair: Red
Eyes: Dark Green

Since Rin’s arms are tiny stumps due to a severe birth defect and subsequent surgery, she uses her feet and occasionally her mouth to do everything, which includes painting. Because of her disability, using skirts is tough, so Rin is wearing a boy’s uniform at school. Her creativity is matched by her philosophical streak: Rin is fond of occasionally getting lost in thought and giving voice to abstract ideas about man, the universe, and other things that thoroughly confuse people.

Shizune Hakamichi

Birthday: May 6
Zodiac: Taurus
Blood Type: O
Height: 158 cm
Weight: 53 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 88/52/85
Hair: Dark Blue
Eyes: Blue

Strong willed and forceful, Shizune is definitely the leader type. She’s been the class rep, despite being deaf and mute, for as long as her class has had one, and generally takes charge in just about any situation she’s placed in. Shizune is known around the school as a fearsome taskmaster, and skilled manipulator, but also as a fair and just leader.

Shiina “Misha” Mikado

Birthday: November 1
Zodiac: Scorpio
Blood Type: AB
Height: 158 cm
Weight: 57 kg
Bust/Waist/Hips: 85/58/84
Hair: Pink
Eyes: Gold

Misha is the interpreter for Shizune and a fellow member of the student council. Cheery, playful, and never one to pull a punch, she happily joins in Shizune's attempts to get Hisao onto the student council.

At January 4, 2012 Four Leaf Studios proudly presents the full release of Katawa Shoujo, 3 years ago there was a demo of this game slight tweaks where made in the music and art along with some editing.

Linkin Park x GoodSmile Company Project

Will Get Nendoroid Petit Rendetion

American rock band Linkin Park is partnering with Good Smile Company to hold an event titled “A Thousand Horizon“, which will be divided in 2 parts: A Thousand Horizon Museum and A Thousand Horizon Show. GSC will be selling goodies at the event and part of the sales will be donated to the earthquake affected areas through Music for Relief.

Apart from T-Shirts, iPhone 4 cases, and other goodies, GSC will also make Nendoroid Petit to sell at the event. Since I could not read Japanese well, I can only guess that it would be Nendoroid Petit rendetion of LINKIN PARK’s 6 band members. ^^

What do you think, Nendonesian?

The Black Rock Shooter franchise also inspired an original video anime, figures, and games. The artist ringo launched the Black Rock-chan four-panel manga in the inaugural issue of Kadokawa Shoten's 4-Koma Nano Ace magazine in March, and Sanami Suzuki (Net Ghost PiPoPa) launched another Black Rock Shooter ~Innocent Soul~ manga in Young Ace magazine in June.

DmC Backlash : An article about how it's not the hair

2011-06-21T17:00:00.000-07:00

DmC Backlash

Since day one when the new DmC-Devil May Cry Reboot was shown in Tokyo Games 2010 I've been in a raging mood up to now with this direction of one of my favorite Capcom game franchise. They said wait and did a no show on Captivate and said E3 they'll make a big splash and would make the fans go back to game. That splash was a trailer gameplay quote "Gamplay Work In Progress". Which was decent enough, but analyze the trailer completely it doesn't feel like a Devil May Cry game. Everything seems to be out of place, different and awkward. There are too many things that can be said for this reboot, but mostly all articles in the net seems to insult fans of the original game series because of the backlash and others seemed to be paid off. There is one article writer though that knows what's going down with this new DmC and has every fan argument why this reboot sucks from day one. Links are below.

Ichiro Heian! Manga chapter.1

2011-05-11T02:44:00.000-07:00

Have a Safe Trip! Ch.1

Since it's RAWS and I cannot read Japanese and there are no groups yet that is scanlating or translating this manga I'll just give a brief short summary on this manga chapter in my point of view.

Intro we seem to have another nerdy loser Otaku guy. Who went out to get some food curiously there was a black cat similar to Iori from School Rumble without the scar on it's head, the guy frightened the cat which in where in it was almost ran over by a girl biking, she slipped and hits our male protagonist.

lesson learned here is not to frighten cats

Ouch that gotta hurt!

Ohhh the typical boy meets girl! Is it love at first sight?

Well with that kind of reaction I don't think so....

She's speaking in Chinese she's probably a foreigner and our helpless hero is at a loss.

Later on the girl leaves and he went on with his business, but it seems their meeting was fate?

Seems the landlady of the apartment or a relative knows this girl and seemed to asked our hero to accompany her.

Ohhh looky eye balls popping out of his glasses. lol

He seems to be using words from various anime and game media to talk to the girl, it seems it's working the girl is flattered and blushed, seems he's won her trust. In the end of the chapter both where biking together side by side.

Well that's how I see it, will update when translations and scanlations are out.

Another Jin Kobayashi manga I'll be reading and watching out for.

Cobra: The Space Pirate! Live Action film

2011-05-05T23:05:00.000-07:00

An upcoming movie adaptation of classic space pirate manga Cobra, due in 2013 and titled “Cobra: The Space Pirate,” has the unusual distinction of actually being well received, largely thanks to the rather striking promotional image above.

The live action adaptation is to be directed by Alexandre Aja, known for such classics as Piranha 3D and Mirrors.

Iam pretty much looking forward to this since the promotional movie poster looks great. Iam hoping it'll have some great action packed scenes along with beautiful alien women in their thongs. lol

But as seen in most animes and games turned Hollywood movies isn't that good, Iam just praying this one will be the difference maker. Till 2013 or a teaser trailer I'll reserve my judgement.

Ichiro Heian!

(Have a Nice Trip)

By Jin Kobayashi

Well there were rumors that Jin Kobayashi's next Manga was going to be Honkawa Action! as seen in this teaser image below.

But it seems it's not the case.

From ANN

The May issue of Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine is announcing on Saturday that manga creator Jin Kobayashi (School Rumble, Natsu no Arashi!) is launching a new series called Ichiro Heian! (Have a Safe Trip!) in the next issue on May 9. According to the advertising, the story will have "black-haired girl x bicycle = long distance romantic comedy!"

Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine had indicated in February of 2010 that Kobayashi was planning a new series in that magazine. Kobayashi ended his Natsu no Arashi! science-fiction romance manga in Square Enix's Monthly Gangan Joker magazine last September. He ended the School Rumble Z spinoff manga Kodansha's Magazine Special in May of 2009, after finishing the original School Rumble manga in August of 2008.

So it's another romantic comedy, this time it's about a long distance romance and girl that is biking. Seems interesting, though knowing Jin Kobayashi his style of artwork is his trademark will look similar to School Rumble characters.

Toriko Anime

2011-04-07T03:22:00.000-07:00

From Wiki

In a world where the taste and texture of food is extremely important there exist individuals known as Gourmet Hunters (bishoku-ya) who specialize in the acquisition of rare ingredients and animals. Toriko is one of these hunters and it is his dream to find the most precious foods in the world and create the ultimate dinner course. As one of the most skilled hunters in the world he is regularly hired by restaurants and the rich to seek out new ingredients and rare animals. A man with inhuman ability, he utilizes his incredible strength and knowledge of the animal kingdom to capture ferocious, evasive, and rare beasts to further his ultimate goal. He is accompanied by a weak and timid chef who, inspired by Toriko's ambition, travels with him to improve his culinary skills and to find rare ingredients. An organization that seeks to take control of the world's entire food supply increases the struggle.

If you like cooking animes like cooking master boy or Yakitate!! Japan you'd definitely love this over the top anime food. 100% this anime will make you hungry.

Five things you never knew about Pac-Man

2011-03-06T00:33:00.000-08:00

PACMAN is probably one of the most well known video game characters of all time. But did you know there are a few surprising things that we never knew when this game was in development.
Toru Iwatani had a conference on San Francisco and there he said a few surprising things about this well known and loved game.

The point of the game was to attract girls

While today's player is slightly more likely to be male, gaming in the late 1970s was pretty much exclusively a men's club. Iwatani wanted to change this, creating something that could appeal to both women and families, he says.

"The reason I created Pac-Man was because we wanted to attract female gamers," he says. "Back then, there were no home games. People had to go to the arcade center to play games. That was a playground for boys. It was dirty and smelly. So we wanted to include female players, so it would become cleaner and brighter."

Each ghost had specific orders

When you play the game, it might seem as if the four ghosts are actively chasing you. That's not exactly true. Iwatani intentionally avoided programming them with that purpose, since that would have resulted in Pac-Man zipping around the screen with four ghosts always right behind him.

Instead, it's only Blinky, the red ghost, who doggedly pursues you throughout the game. Pinky, the pink ghost (naturally), simply wants to position itself at a point that's 32 pixels in front of Pac-Man's mouth. The blue ghost, Inky, is seeking to position itself at a similar fixed spot. And Clyde, the orange ghost, moves completely at random.

Because the player constantly has Pac-Man on the go, however, the ghosts are always changing direction and trying to achieve their goal, which adds to the challenge of the game.

What, exactly, does Pac-Man mean?

You may have heard the story about how a pizza with a missing slice inspired Pac-Man's design. But it turns out the game was designed entirely around food.

"I thought about something that may attract girls," says Iwatani. "Maybe boy stories or something to do with fashion. However, girls love to eat desserts. My wife often does! So the verb ‘eat' gave me a hint to create this game."

That theme continued with the game's name. In Japanese, "puck puck" is akin to the U.S. saying "munch munch". So the original name - Puck-Man - translated as "Munch man". (A savvy Midway Games official changed it to Pac-Man when the game hit the U.S. to discourage vandals from shaving off part of the "P," thereby creating an obscene word.)

The missing puzzle piece

Pac-Man was designed to be as simple as possible, to attract a wide audience. The limits of technology in 1980 made this a little easier to achieve. Iwatani says he's happy about this now, but at the time, there was one more thing he wanted to add to the game.

"I wanted to have a shelter and it would move up and down," he says. "When the ghost comes, the ghost would be pinched by the shelter which would disfigure the ghost."

The ghosts were almost just one color

It's kind of hard to picture Pac-Man without the brightly colored ghosts today, but when the game was being developed, Iwatani says he was pressured hard to change that.

The president of Namco ordered him to make the ghosts a single color - red, to be precise - since she believed players would be confused that some ghosts, perhaps, were Pac-Man's ally.

Iwatani refused the order and on questionnaires to the game's testers, asked if they would prefer a single color ghost or four. Not a single person wanted the single-color option. That ultimately convinced the president she was wrong.

Devil May Cry Movie

2011-03-01T20:04:00.000-08:00

A live action Devil May Cry movie is on the works. Will it be like the Resident Evil movies? Or the Street Fighter movies? Anyways as long as they stick to the iconic Dante in the movie and not the Ninja Theory reboot Dante. Also in my opinion they should star Reuben Langdon as Dante. He's well known to play the voice actor and motion capture of Dante in Devil May Cry 3 and 4 .

Miyuki Ayukawa

2011-02-21T18:42:00.000-08:00

Basquash!'s

Miyuki Ayukawa

Basquash - The story takes place in the world of "Earth Dash", an alternate, futuristic version of Earth where human society split between the far more advanced lunar society and that of the planet's surface. A popular sport is BFB (Big Foot Basketball), where players ride mecha called "Big Foot" and play basketball in a giant arena. In the city of Rolling Town, Dan JD and his companions take the sport to the streets, rename it "Basquash", and then embark on a journey to overcome their past hardships and make their dreams come true.

May Contain Spoilers

Story Profile taken from Wiki

Miyuki Ayukawa (ミユキ・アユカワ) - Dan's childhood sweetheart who moved away from his neighborhood when they were children. She returned in the first episode as a well endowed teenager and a skilled mechanic. Upon her return she gives him and teaches him how to pilot a BigFoot. She cares for Dan and his team's Big Foots, something she does happily, as it gives her more work to do (and get paid for). She also has been shown as having deep feelings for Dan even though he doesn't notice them. Later, she redesigns the team's BigFoots, making them move much faster and smoother than before, enough to create an afterimage. Though she is not a basquasher, she is still an irreplaceable part of the team, constantly fixing and upgrading all of their BigFoots. Though she has feelings for Dan, she steps aside once Rouge comes into the picture, and accepts their mutual attraction. She did not participate in the Legend Tournament, but she did go with everyone, and did the finishing touches on the BigFoots. Her upgrades were overwhelming; the shoes that Haruka made for Dan were burned off after he pushed the BigFoot to its limits. In the aftermath, she is seen working with her grandfather on an orange BigFoot (it is highly probably that it is Dan's), showing that she will continue to be a mechanic.

Her Voice Actor is Asano Masumi well known playing the role of Sonsaku Hakufu from the anime series called Ikkitousen.

Probably the cutest and most attractive black/brown anime girl I've seen in all animes I've watched. Never really paid attention too Basquash! Since I thought it was another Sci-Fi anime that has basketball for sports. Then I saw this girl's lingering around the internet was instantly interested in her, I was surprised it was one of those animes I didn't pay attention too. Well how should I put the anime? Hmm...I guess this image will explain it better.

Yep alot of love from Miyuki's large jugs and cuteness through out the series. Anyways I'll just leave it to that and leave you guys with various Miyuki images. Enjoy!

I love Big Butts and I cannot lie!

Comments

I was attracted to this because of the Figma's MaxFactory released. They have alot of neat accessories which I really like to see in a figure. So I started to collect this series. Also the most popular character is Aya Kagura the blond girl, but I personally like Miyuki Mana. The Hgame/Eroge is free btw, but you gotta buy Figma and patch it. LOL No wonder it was free because of the figma that comes with it and patch it requires. Anyways this is a great buy, you won't regret having these figma's and game.

Death in the Family.

2011-01-10T18:19:00.000-08:00

Long months in 2010 I didn't posts....
The reason is my mother died. It was very sudden, she had asthma and was smoking for long time. She stopped smoking at 2005 when she got hospitalized with pulmonary infection and is diagnosed as diabetic, she recovered and became well again and got back to work. Then as you see 5 years later she died. She thought it was an asthma attack, but it was a stroke we wanted her to go to the hospital, but still insisted not to go to the hospital and I just turned on the electric fan and massaged her back and chest and observed her, when she was really out of breath then she herself said to take her to a hospital, I called the phone so my uncle and I can take her and when I looked back at her she fainted on the sofa and bubbles started coming out of her mouth. That instant shocked me and when my uncle arrived he, me and some neighbors carried my mom out to the car, when we arrived at the hospital she was dead on arrival, she was revived a three times, but still a few minutes after the 3rd revival flatline. I was very sad then, Christmas and New Year I had no mother. Christmas and New Year's are the time when we all put our differences aside and hug and become a family again. My father and mother are divorced, never herd from my father since I was 12 years old. My mom, grandma and aunt took care of me at the time. Now that both gramama and mom is dead. Well Iam alone at my mothers house since in her last will she said I must take care of it. My aunt now acts as my guardian, now Iam just picking up things, quit my job and trying to start a new life without her.

Anyways sad things aside this is a new year 2011 Year of the rabbit gotta start a new life and be more optimistic and positive and stop being emotional. I now only pray to God that God rest her soul, may she rest in peace in heaven with all the angels and saints and people that have passed on.

Meet My Wife!

I’ll do my best for you!

Limited Edition Aldra. She's a special mail order poseable toy figure that comes with a game book. I ordered her when she was already out, but if you pre-ordered her on some sites there is a special gift of an autographed artwork from the artist that drew her. So I didn't got the picture which makes me sad and even more bad news it's already sold out! The Book is when Aldra is now a wife while the figure is when she was queen of Gainos.

Aldra's story as Wife.

The half-demon that once won two successive Queen’s Blade championships and ruled as the “Bewitched Queen”.
In the last tournament, the Demon Delmore, the source of her super-extraordinary powers was torn-off from her and she was defeated. By losing most of her powers, her body that had stopped growing reverted to its true form.
After that, she embarked on a journey to find her lost sister but she suffered memory loss.
What saved the physically and mentally exhausted Aldra was the “love” from a certain man. They married and Aldra’s heart was healed.
A short-lived happy live began before the war between the Queen’s Army and the Rebel Army spread through the whole Continent. To protect her loved husband, she was determined to throw herself in the fight. She will use her innate summoning skills again. She summoned and made a contract with the Underworld dwellers Belphe and Dogor. However, those two are a dangerous threat that plots to eat their contractor Aldra when they get the opportunity!!

Lucky Star x Street Fighter Nendoroid Review

Part.1

Part.2

DmC - Devil May Cry Reboot

2010-09-29T09:24:00.000-07:00

DmC (Devil May Cry) is a REBOOT of the Devil May Cry series and is now being developed by Ninja Theory and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, it is the first in the series not to be developed internally by Capcom. The game's story will not follow the continuity of the previous Devil May Cry games and will serve as a new origin on Dante on how he became to be the demon hunter/slayer we know. Take note this Dante is now has now a darker persona, a sadistic psychopath out for vengeance where the reasons will be revealed later on in the game. Limbo City is the setting of the story a city ruled by demons from Hell. Dante is a young man born with a demon linage born in Limbo City. He is being held in a mental hospital or a police station beaten up and bruised and interrogated as subject 64432B.

TGS Trailer

Reaction......

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?!!!! Initially in TGS(Tokyo Game Show) this was the most controversial and most negatively received by fans and gamers alike. They changed Dante's hair from white/silver to black with a white patch. Interview says he'll eventually gain back his white hair due to the course of the gameplay LAME!!! Did they made a reboot just to tell the story of Dante's hair? That's the stupidest thing I've herd. Though fans like myself can let that slide, but
the interviews on Ninja Theory and Capcom are not so good either. They seem to not know alot about the old Devil May Cry series games and is bashing the old school Dante like in which he's not cool anymore, he's a fashionista and will be laughed at when he goes out to the public. LOL!!! and rage at the same time. Like their take on Dante won't get arrested for looking like a drug addict junkie emo from the movie Twilight. Also the lead cheif designer looks similar to the new Dante, which greatly added fuel to the fire. Alot of inconsistent interviews have been said and done which gives NT and Capcom less credibility now. Other facts after a few days later NT was getting help from Capcom Japan on the game while now they're hiring Asian experts on culture and I thought they wanted to westernized the DMC series, why get help from the east?!! The only good part on this is that this will not be in the same universe or continuity of the original DMC series and in a last decent interview on Capcom/NT they wanted to add the things in the cutscenes of the old DMC games to the gameplay. Other than that, the new Dante or "Donte" or Nagurante which most Japanese call him because he looks similar to the Japanese comedian actor Jun Nagura.

Also on a take on this new "Donte". The original Dante is a non smoker, loves pizza, takes a bath and drinks a few beer now and then, smart ass talker and has a heart. The new one is a sadistic psychopath that is out for revenge, kills brutally, has questionable trademark weapons since he's missing Rebellion old school Dante's sword on all DMC games, which was replaced by a staff that stretches like a tentacle(Yes God of War). Ebony and Ivory??? Questionable since his guns in the trailer seem to have a different design and lacks power, his BLACK hair and his questionable/controversial looks from the chief director of NT, Edward Cullen from Twilight, being a junkie addict and much more.

The question here is why did Capcom need to reboot the DMC series? It was doing great on the games, but now with this can they pull off something up their sleeves? It only now lies on the gameplay for some, others like me are afraid of the storyline and direction. Anyways my parting words for this upcoming game is that it should have been another game title, not slapping on a popular franchise name like DMC and calling it DmC reboot with a darker "Donte" which clearly it isn't in all sense and essence of the original roots of DMC is not found here. Pretty much many as of now are VERY disappointed of the outcome of the year and half just for that trailer. If there is anything good I can say about the trailer it's the music just that nothing else.

3 O'clock Prayer

2010-05-29T00:07:00.000-07:00

3 O'Clock Prayer to the Divine Mercy

In our daily lives as Christians spiritually we need to have that communication with God. Mother Mary's Rosary prayer, The Angelus, going to church on Sundays and others. But in our busy life style at times we cannot fulfill all of them, but we all can pose for a minute of our time and pray a minuted prayer to God. Here is the 3 O'Clock Prayer to the Divine Mercy, where a prayer will only take a solem minute of your time just to be with God. His love and mercy will forever will be there, that's why in the begging of the prayer we always put our faith in God "Jesus I trust in You".

Super Street Fighter IV Sakura Ganbanru Ending

2010-04-22T07:44:00.000-07:00

WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!

In the ending of the Sakura Ganbanru manga, we see an older Sakura, a track and field gym teacher and sees Ryu again and both of them spar. Masahiko Nakihara created this ending in the manga to conclude Sakura's high school life to her now present career.

Now going to the Street Fighter IV series. Before Street Fighter Characters are requested to return a Capcom Unity member named Akiba created a thread called Sakura Grown up Please. Sakura fans, players and yours truly flock that thread and many ideas came for an older Sakura. Still many of people there including myself always refer to the Sakura Ganbanru Manga where she's older. When Capcom released the game SFIV arcades many where disappointed that Sakura didn't make it. Then the console release she was there! But still a school girl, there where hints that she got held back due to all the fighting she did with Dan and Blanka to promote Dan's Saikyo Dojo not to mention she beat Zangief in her SFIV Aftermath trailer and became popular.

While with Dan and Blanka, Sakura is using Dan to get around the world in search for Ryu again for another sparing fight. In game cut scenes in SFIV Sakura meets up Ryu and spars with him and quotes she's grown up a little which she's become better at fighting and a possible a tribute to the thread in Capcom Unity. Ryu's ending intertwines with Sakura's and Sakura's with Dan's.

Now in the ending of Super Street Fighter IV, Sakura, Dan and Blanka are still on a journey to promote Dan's dojo. While Sakura still hopes she can see "HIM"(Ryu) again and become a better fighter.

Ryu and Sakura both leave there separate ways in her ending....but there is a huge surprise in the ending! We see an older Sakura not to mention hotter in a gym jacket uniform walking her dog, where in which she sees Ryu again. This ending denotes that Capcom followed the Sakura Ganbanru manga route with the gym teacher Sakura and listened to the fans Sakura has grown up, though here Sakura by chance Sakura sees Ryu walking and runs towards him, while in the manga Ryu goes to Sakura to spar with her.

The English translated version of Sakura Ganbanru manga is translated by Udon Entertainment.

Super Street Fighter IV New Hakan

2010-03-17T08:01:00.000-07:00

Meet the newest Street Fighter. A Turkish Oil Wrestler named HAKAN.

Profile:

Hakan

Oil Trickling Good FatherBeing a world leading cooking oil maker's manager, though also yağlı gűreş's prominent contestant Turkey's man of valor. His body lacquered of oil from performing fighting techniques moves are born through uniqueness, not just opponents but as far as sightseers occasionally he makes them go into mayhem. Through heartiness with a friendly personality, but also a family-sentimental father. Accent is strong. For the sake of hobbies and practical use, he goes around journeying out to the world's oil.

Name: Hakan
Represented nation: Turkey
Birthday: November 13
Height: 190 cm
Weight: 110 kg
BWH sizes: B172, W160, H165
Blood type: O
Likes: his bride, his daughters, chanko
Dislikes: tobacco, fire
Special skill: enka (traditional-style Japanese popular ballad)
Fighting style: yağlı gűreş/ Oil Wrestling

Final new ultras I & II:

-oil coaster
-oil combination hold

Cooking oil because olive oil's what's used for their wrestling. The style's name is more or less pronounced "yah-roo gyu-resh" from their kana. Yep, he definitely needs to get together with El Fuerte and Honda (never thought they'd put chanko for him to like too, not to mention specializing in enka but I guess that may be part of his gracefulness when it comes to oil wrestling itself). The meaning of his name is "emperor."

Memorable Quotes:

"Looks like it's time to oil up."

"I love my daughters they're all so pretty!"

Takeuchi Takashi + Kobayashi Jin doujinshi

2010-02-20T10:14:00.000-08:00

Takashi Takeuchi

&

Jin Kobayashi

Type-moon’s Takeuchi Takashi will be pairing up with mangaka Kobayashi Jin (School Rumble, Natsu no arashi) to release a 36 page full colour A3 sized doujinshi under the doujin circle Rubicon Hearts for the coming Winter Comiket.

The title of the doujinshi will be called “Kyoto, haru.”, which basically means Spring in Kyoto. They have apparently also got a number of different artists to draw background scenary in the book, and the center page spread will be an A2 sized illustration.

Takeuchi’s comment:

I’ve always been thinking that I want to do original doujinshi once more again. But it has always been a kind of a “vague” feeling that always ended up “vaguely” unable to come into fruition.

“Lets go to Kyoto now! We will see the sakura and make the book!”

What broke my “vague” feeling was Kobayashi Jin’s great enthusiasm.

I thought that he would make some absurd suggestions, but at the same time I started getting more and more enthusiastic about the entire thing too. This was the same kind of feeling I constantly had 10 years ago. This feeling is probably the start where all my creative work came from.

I would be happy if this book can become a special part of somebody’s life out there.

Kobayashi’s comment:

“I want to do doujin!” I’ve always had that thought in my mind. To me, creative work outside of commercial business has been highly idealized in my mind.

To be in a hall with very little people, where people might not even be aware of your existence but parts of your book may remain in somebody’s consciousness. An extremely simple way of sending out information. Though it might not go the same way as I imagine it.

This time I’ll be with a great veteran Takeuchi-san. Even though I was nervous about this, I drew everything with some guidance from Takeuchi-san. Takeuchi-san is still as hot-blooded as always. I can’t hesitate! It’ll be a waste of myself!

Super Street Fighter IV HYPE!!!!!!

2010-02-20T08:59:00.000-08:00

Super Street Fighter IV

HYPE!!!!!!

For the past weeks Capcom has been dropping bombs on hyping Super Street Fighter IV. One giving us the cgi Juri trailer. Featuring the new girl Juri VS Chunli and Cammy. Then the FAMITSU magazine leaks out the SFIII-series characters Ibuki, Dudley and Makoto. Which was followed up yet again with a nostalgic CGI character intro of the 3 along with the other earlier announced characters Guy, Cody, Adon, Dee Jay, T.Hawk and Juri. The best part here is that the SFIII chacters Makoto, Dudley and Ibuki retain all their special moves from the SFIII-series, though there are a few adjustments on some parts, but overall if you see them in action and most importantly if you see their Ultra's it's just mind blowing! Since Capcom added a cinematic(like ultra's in SFIV) movement on the Ultra's which made it more awesome to see.

Now only the new comer Hakan who is a man said to be obsessed with oil had yet to be seen and announced. You can here him speak after the SSFIV New Challengers trailer.

LTNB (Long Time No Blogging)

2010-01-26T01:11:00.000-08:00

Hi...been a long time gone since pretty much I've been busy with my personal life and had to choose between my hobbies and career. I thought hard...then I noticed my bills, my photobucket isn't up, Iam gaining alot of weight. So I've decided to stopped for a bit on my hobbies games, anime, etc. Now Iam back, but not at a 100%. I'll probably be casual anime watcher and collector now as of late since I've been missing out on ALOT of anime shows and stuff. So final words, Iam glad I've given sometime to see the real world, but missed the fun of my hobbies.

Needless Anime/Manga

2009-08-31T09:39:00.000-07:00

The year is 2130 after the third world war, large contaminated areas known as "Blackspots" formed all over Japan. Large Walls were used to quarantine off these "Blackspots". In time, signs of inhabitance appeared within these wastelands. Among the survivors who had been abandoned inside the Blackspots, labeled as "those who were unneeded", came forth possessors of uncanny abilities -- Fire, wind, brute strength...they were defined by their supernatural abilities. Others, fearful of their powers, expelled them and named them - - - Needless!

Mangaka: Imai Kami

Genre: Seinen, Action, Sci-fi

Anime Opening

Anime Ending

At first glance you will think it's ripping off Tenggen Toppan Gurren Laggan, but it's not actually. The manga was way back 2004 before TTGL was a manga or anime. The artwork is a combination of MANLY MEN and LOLI girls in design which makes it an awesome manga and anime series. The anime has toned down the gory and too violent parts in the manga. Currently the manga is ongoing.

Photobucket Bandwith

2009-08-31T09:31:00.000-07:00

Well as you can see on my blog site my photobucket has exceeded the bandwith, the images here will be up next month hopefully...

Shin Mazinger Zer0

2009-08-02T05:41:00.000-07:00

Shin Mazinger Zero

Released: 2009
Authors: Go Nagai, Tabata Yoshiaki
Artist: Yugo Yuuki

The NEW Shin Mazinger Zer0 manga it's plot is not light hearted it's VERY dark and almost H at some points. If you thought Kouji Kabuto couldn't get a darker character like Ryoma did in Shin Getter in this Mazinger Manga he has gotten that character change. Also the mazinger in the manga at times looks like the "FEWTURE" Robot design figure. Also be advice it's a VERY dark plot.

Revoltech Neo Airi WARNING NSFW!!!

2009-07-18T11:31:00.000-07:00

Ok got the Revoltech Neo Airi figure. It doesn't come with the Assembleborg though...Also note that Airi is called "The Maid/Maiden of Temptation", well the word MAID has a double meaning, MEIDO(メイド) also means 'Hell or Hades'.

Also Warning NSFW images ahead!

Box

Man look at the size of those BOOBS!!! So big...

Here's the battle damage dress.

Extra battle damage leg.

Extra "OUCH" or hurt emotion face that you can interchange.

No TwinTails!

Good and bad part about this figure is that it's cast off, the bad part is taking off the plastic clothing...it's a big pain to cast off Airi's clothing than Leina's!

Ok here's the Cast Off!

NSFW!!!

The bad part is that her middle torso is a ball joint.

The good part is that her panties can be cast off!!!

And yes she's VERY WELL DETAILED!

Final words...well keep Airi dressed, she looks better as a maid in the non-damage and battle damage outfit, her weapon is awesome and the blue flame attachment to her twintails are great!

Revoltech Neo Leina

2009-07-04T10:58:00.000-07:00

Sorry for the late updates, been VERY busy! I finally I got the erotic and very mature Queens Blade anime figure from Revoltech Neo Leina!

WARNING!!! Some images are NSFW!

The Leina figure comes with this guy. It's called an ASSEMBLEBORG.

Box

Seal proof it's original.

Leina herself has a coin I dunno what it does, a little orange box where you can put the other loose parts in, the sword and extra hands and destroyed armor.

At the back it has a profile about the upcoming revoltechs and some instructions, it has the ASSEMBLEBORG so literally you get 2 figures, but this figure doesn't have much articulation the ASSEMBLEBORG I mean, and the stand. The seal that warps the box has the advertisement of of the upcoming Revoltech Neo's.

Ok taking off the armor is a BIG PAIN! You need to disassemble her thoroughly from the torso and hip. Yes it's a bit creepy looking at what I did with Leina here, but later on when the armor comes off it will loosen and it'll be easier to to exchange the battle damaged armor with the regular one.

Ok! The one that you'be been waiting for the CASTOFF! Lets start with DAT ASS!

You can pose her covering her boobs, though the bad thing with this figure is those 2 holes you see on the second picture, which holds her armor.

You can have the ASSEMBLEBORG as Leina's enemy.

Last notes:

Pretty much this figure is intended for mature and 18 above collectors since the nude cast off ability it has. The S and M on the box must mean SAFE mode and Mature mode. Not the erotic S&M that most people might think at first. lol J/K.

Cosplay Fighter Loses

2009-04-26T04:36:00.000-07:00

Yuichiro Nagashima loses to Albert Kraus via K.O. Yuichiro is also known as a cosplaying cross dresser, though widely known as a cosplayer he's pretty much something to be reckon with in the ring with 12 WINS 1 LOST in the kickboxing cuircuit and 4 Wins and 2 Loses in MMA not to mention he's a champion, a more serious Yuichiro here on his MMA profile.

As opposed to Albert Kraus, a serious veteran with alot of titles on his hand, he has a total of 75 fights with 58 WINS 14 Loses and 3 Draws. Pretty much he lost to Albert's ring experience seeing how many fights he was in the past. He's also known as the HURRICANE, no wonder those hooks where so fast to KO our cosplay fighter.

Natsu no Arashi anime airs!

2009-04-06T11:47:00.000-07:00

Natsu No Arashi anime airs! It will be confusing at first for manga and anime only watchers, since it seems it's not in order when it was aired. Kinda like Haruhi. The main critic here is the sudden change of artwork from the manga. Still the story holds true that Arashi and Kaya/Kaja are time travelers.

Queen's Blade OVA

2009-04-03T00:15:00.000-07:00

Highly ecchi anime Queens Blade will have a special "FANSERVICE" OVA special episode with each volume considering the content of the main feature, it should be interesting indeed. Theoretically since this is ecchi and fanservice overload, why don't they just make the OVA Hentai? I think MANY ecchi/hentai fans would approve to that notion.

Change 123/Change Hi-Fu-Mi

See the picture above you? You see 4 naked girls with censor bars on the CERTAIN areas that are not needed to be scene because of obscenity, so you think I am "THE MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS"...Well tough luck boys and girls, that girl is only one person!

I present Change 123. Hi-Fu-Mi which means Change Hibiki-Fujiko-Mikiri. The shounen manga which follows Motoko Gettou, a female high school student trained by her 3 fathers(actually martial arts masters who are foster fathers). The result of their rigorous training, Motoko developed 3 personalities representing each martial arts of her who each are individually skilled in the combat skills she's learned. She was orphaned at an early age which her mother left her with her 3 foster fathers. There is another personality within Motoko Gettou who's named Zero or 0, who is the strongest. She is ruthless, emotionless, inhumanly strong to point of being able to tear off limbs, and will attack and try to kill anyone she sees. She has all the skills of the other personalities, but has no mercy for anyone. She is Motoko's anger,hatered and rage are within Zero. It's 3-2-1-0/Hibiki-Fujiko-Mikiri-Zero. She is the last resort when all the other personalities are defeated. She can also fuse with the other personalities giving them the level of power she has. She's said to be the natural "BORN KILLER" among all the personalities and said if Motoko doesn't go to theraphy she might develop another personality. The fathers and Motoko's friend Kyosukegawa are trying to find a way to cure her so she may live a normal life.

Change 123 has currently has manga 8 volumes.

This is what popped up when I tried it. Curious? CLICK the link below and take the test to find out!

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

Rosario+Vampire Capu2 ep.12-13(Final)

2009-01-04T07:02:00.000-08:00

It's so sad to say goodbye. Since Kurumu-chan didn't get an episode of her own in Rosario+Vampire Capu2! Only Moka,Yukari,Ruby,Kokoa and Mizore got there fair share of air time.

Well the time has passed, R+V Capu2 is finally over! The first DVD volume is out expect no bats and a wide screen feature which kinda crops some of the panty shots. So advice for those who DL the uncensored sub versions. KEEP 'EM!!!

I was busy to make summaries of R+VCapu2 so here's just a quick recap of ep12 and 13.

Ep.12 Seal + Vampire

Continued from the last episode, the sky above youkai academy and that of the human world is meging since the seal was broken. Moka then replaced the broken rosario on the seal with her own rosario limiter which stopped the youkai world from merging with the humans. With that done she is now permanently Inner Moka. Ruby then had a little chat with the Chairman. Moka's rosario limiter and youkai academy's barrier's rosario are made by the same person who is one of the three founders of youkai academy. Tsukune goes to the castle north of the barrier as Ruby informs him. Kokoa overheard his conversation with Ruby and is planning to stop him before he reaches the maker of the seal.

Ep.13 "Cross + Family + Vampire"

Tsukune rides his bike to the castle. On his way to the castle, he was attacked by Kokoa's Bat(Kou-chan) what's worst Mizore's and Kurumu's mothers also tried to stop him, but Yukari(along with her parents), Mizore and Kurumu stops them. When Tsukune reaches the castle Kokoa was there and warns him that the lord of the castle is hi father, and his powers exceed that of an S-class youkai. Tsukune with his iron will or stupidity faced Moka and Kokoa's father to get a new rosario for Moka. Tsukune gets beaten badly, but in his anger brings out his dormant vampire powers which was given by Moka in the end of the season1 anime. He manages to snatch the rosario from Moka and Kokoa's dad. Inner Moka arrives and stops the fight, saying that Tsukune has the won. Moka's and Kokoa's dad leaves the castle. Kokoa tries to steal the rosario away from Tsukune, but Tsukune grabs her. Then caste starts to collapse. With a new rosario Tsukune prepares to bring back Outer Moka, but not before Inner Moka had her with him, since Tsukune never choosed any of the girls, which results in Tsukune being kicked hard and bit in the neck with that Inner Moka placed the rosario and thus Tsukune and Outer Moka have their reunion, and Tsukune is bitten yet again and was almost sucked dry. The old routine begins again and Kokoa was spanked by his father since it was her at fault. Ruby and Neko-sensei takes them all back to youkai academy and they danced, then Kokoa suddenly out of no where with the used the Lilith's Mirror yet splitting Moka into her two selves again and all the girls that love Tsukune grabs on to him. - End

Bandai's SH FiguArts Domon Kasshu

2008-12-17T10:38:00.000-08:00

Bandai SH FiguArts has finally released a posesable G-Gundam figure and it's Domon Kasshu! Here's a quick comedic review on this particular figure.

Brief Character Intro:

Domon Kasshu is the main character of the series called G-Gundam and pilot of the Shining
Gundam and later on after the battle with the Devil(Dark) Gundam and Master Asia leaving the Shining Gundam heavly damaged, he was then sent God Gundam (Burning Gundam) to battle. Domon Kasshu is voiced by Tomokazu Seki in the Japanese who also voices alot of memorable characters in anime.

Box Front and Back

Instruction manual on how to assemble the parts of stand and how to properly exchange the figure's hands and accessories.

You can see on the lower right of the opened box Domon's face sword and cloth for his meditation pose. On the right side various hands for poses like the shining and God finger. At the back the stand is placed underneath.

Domon out of the box. As you can see he's very well detailed through and through, from the Red Sun Japan symbol from the antenas which enables him to move Shining or G-Gundam. In this picture that I've taken I forgot to add the headband which is also included in the box, you'll see it in the further images. Other comments here is that Domon has an outstanding ball joint articulation. You can nearly pose him in almost any pose you want and most importantly you can pose him to do the trademark moves he does in the anime, game, manga or whatever media he has been in.

Height Comparisons.

This is only an estimate, but I guess he's about 10 inches tall. Putting him next to Batista shows dominace of the WWE wrestler in clothing. lol

Kallen and Domon. There's a joke surrounding Kallen that she's Domon's long lost daughter. Others say that she's Domon and Allenby's love child lol. But you cannot deny the resemblance of the two.

Here's the spoof of Kallen as a G-Gundam pilot.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eivEvr_aCQQ

Domon and Konata.

Domon as Meito Anizawa or better known as the Anime Tencho. Anime Tencho is voiced also by the voice actor of Domon Kasshu. So this is somewhat nearest you'll get as of now, not unless they release a Anime Tencho figure. Densetsu no Shojo A!!!(Legendary Girl A)

Here is Domon's battle cry face. Looks retard I know, but you can't deny the awesomeness it brings in a battle pose. You can also see here the his headband which I forgot to put in when I assembled him.

The Stand. A Mobile Fighter Cockpit replica which is not half bad. Easy to assemble and quite sturdy for dynamic arial poses. Like the infamous SPINZAKU!!! Seen below, as Domon kicks butt.

He also comes with a fireball of his fiinishing move called the SEKIHA-TEN-KYOU-KEN or Heavens Soaring Rock Breaking Punch.

Using the stand you can make the pose of the dashing GodFinger. Kinda new experience when it's not the Gundam doing it.

He also has a sword and you can pose him in a heat end pose. Iam holding up "CLOWN FACE" in that pose since the figure cannot carry that much weight. lol. Also a good thing about this figure is that you can make it stand even without the stand. Any figure like that gets a BIG plus and double thumbs up in my book.

Comparing it to the REAL Gundams. Sorry this is the only best G-gundam mech figure I got as of now.

Facial Expressions. Kenshiro from revoltech helps us see Domon's different faces and what can it do to the character!

Close eyes are for the consentrating or meditating Domon, but it can also be used for YAOI poses such as the examples below. That is not how to do the shinning finger folks. ^^;

Kenshiro - GET OFF ME!!! WAAA---CCHAAAA~~!!!

This is the proper meditation pose. There are hands that make that pose. Moving his headband makes it more dynamic looking.

Yoko reap...Titi touch using the shinning finger yet again for ecchi purposes.

Uke or go Seme Domon is hot in bed. lol. But this is where he lacks it, you can flaten his back down since he has those antena's so women figures wanna make love to Domon, he's gotta be on top. lol ^_^

Moar Yoko and Domon fanservice....

Face Palm...
Yoko - What's wrong?

Domon - How many times I have told you Iam the one that is supposed to be on top?

And that's a wrap folks! Hope you had fun on my review on SH FiguArts Domon.

Anime MILF's part1 (Rosario+Vampire)

2008-12-15T22:23:00.000-08:00

NSFW and spoilers on the manga anime.

(they don't mind at all...Take the advantage young man!!!)

Note for those of you that don't know the meaning of MILF please refer here. Ok it's time to focus on the mothers of R+V. Enough with the underage loli's, barely legal teens of R+V and lets get take a look where those young voluptuous teens came from shall we?

First we have is Mizore's Mother.

Tsurara Shirayuki - like mother like daughter she is very shy and serene, she is also a stalker and tends to hide behind corners like Mizore. The lollipop in her mouth like Mizore's is a cold regulator like a mini cooler to keep them from melting since they're Yuki Onna or Ice Ladies. She comes to the Academy's festival under the belief from her daughter's stories that Tsukune is Mizore's boyfriend. Tsurara is also an avid gun collector in the manga and once dreamed of becoming a spy.

In Rosario + Vampire Capu2, Tsurara and Ageha(Kurumu's mom) has a long grudge against one another, being rivals for the affection of a student during their days as students at Youkai Academy. She also runs a ski resort in the human world and her husband first appears in Capu2 Episode 9 and he's cosplaying as a Yeti, in the manga Mizore's father is yet to appear.

The huge SOFT mellons of Ageha Kurono

Ageha is Kurumu's mother and appears during the start of the school festival in the manga under the belief that Tsukune is her daughter's fiance and going so far as to state he can "DO HER" anytime he wants since Kurumu lacks EXPERIENCE. (What a mother!) In Rosario + Vampire Capu2 anime, Ageha and Tsurara hold a long grudge against one another, being rivals for the affection of a student during their days as students at Youkai Academy. Her powers include a parody of MazingerZ's robot lady friend/partner Aphrodite's OPPAI MISSILE!!!

Mrs.Sendo

Mrs.Sendo - not much is known about Yukari's mom since she only apears with her husband in the manga and anime with little to no lines. They are witches or in the case of Daddy he's a warlock. Her powers include making things back the way they where as seen in R+V Capu2 ep.3 fixing the damaged school with magic.

Tsukune's Mom

Kasumi Aono - Tsukune's mother. She is surprised when her son suddenly comes to visit, after a long time with little to no contact, but is proud of his growing maturity and independence. She
goes into a bit of a panic, due to the ensuing chaos of Tsukune's suitors sneaking into her home to visit her son. Of all of Tsukune's suitors, Kasumi seems to like Moka the most, as she had received favorable messages about her from Tsukune. She is an old fashion mom who is conservative and easily gets nervous.

Tsurara and Ageha MILF Fan service!

When they where young they where already HOT!

Ageha's Oppai's are superior!

Yes Right there!! I don't mind young man.

OH MAI GAHD!!!!! XD XD XD

Amagami

2008-12-11T19:01:00.000-08:00

Be my guy...

Famitsu's announced a PlayStation 2 based dating simulation entitled Amagami. Amagami is about a high school student(AS USUAL lol) trying very hard to win over a girl with whom he wants to spend Christmas Eve. The game's main heroine is Tsukasa Ayatsuji. Tsukasa is not only the class honor student, but also is considered pretty much a perfect girl(friend). Amagami will be released in Japan March 19, 2009.

This is for the PS2 and not for the PC so there will be no H or ecchi scenes. Just enjoy dating the girls. The 3D cel shaded graphics gives the anime to life feel here. Also the character designs are quite cute.

Rosario+Vampire Capu2 episode 11

2008-12-10T17:18:00.000-08:00

Episode 11. Mirror to Vampire

Cherries and Split personalities....

WARNING SPOILERS!!!

If you're a manga reader this episode falls on the Anti-Thesis arc and the Rissu Mirror arc in the season1 manga. The story goes Kyo-chan Tsukune's cousin goes to Youkai Academy. She bumps into or should I say Kokoa crashes to her. As the two had a little chat and Kou-chan(the bat) said something and Kokoa rushed to the school as Kyo-chan followed, one problem. The lunch that Kyo-chan was carrying was switched with what was Kokoa's carrying. The scene is similar on how Tsukune first meet Kokoa.

As Kyo-chan goes to Tsukune's school, she see's the girls all over Tsukune and gets jealous a bit. As this happens someone speaks to her, she opens the lunch box and was surprised that it was a mirror, the scene now goes to Kokoa opening her box, but to find food is inside. Kou-chan eats a piece and Kokoa mad hits him for she knows the girl she bumped into got the mirror that was supposed to be hers. Kyo-chan freaks out and runs outside as a fairy in the mirror comes out and speaks to her. She then wishes to know what is the real school is. Then all of a sudden the whatever the mirror reflects turns to it's original form! Namely all the students and teachers there are monsters. The youkai otaku's from the first season where the first victims, then Kurumu and Yukari and the rest of the school. Ruby informs Moka and Tsukune as a perverted Ginei in werewolf form barrages in to take pictures of Moka's panties and Ruby's military look. Moka in her anger clobbered Ginei and the 3 went on. Ruby explains that the Lilith Mirror is the 'cause of all this, the 3 separated to cover more ground to find the mirror as the school has gone to chaos the monsters found Kyo-chan hiding and the fairy of the Lilith mirror left her to die. Moka finds Kyo-chan and helps her escape and uses the Lilith mirror to transform herself into inner Moka and she beat the monsters, but the Lilith mirror separates Inner and Outer Moka into 2 separate beings, both have half the strength of the other and is weaken by the rosario cross limiter and inner was hit by the fairy and was down.

Meanwhile Tsukune has to deal with the AWAKENED girls of their true desire. As the girls plead to Tsukune to choose on whom he'll mate with. But Tsukune as the gentleman he didn't choose, but instead he said all of them are precious friends which snapped out the spell of the mirror. The girls fought the Lilith mirror fairy blindfolded and by the help by Kyo-chan shouting the direction where the mirror is, the fairy was defeated by the combined attack of the 4 girls Kurumu, Yukari, Mizore and Ruby. This episode the 4 girls saved the day instead of Inner Moka. Kokoa comes to her Onee-sama, but was rejected, Ruby returns everything to normal as she drags Kokoa for disciplinary action. Then the seal of the school starts to break! The Human world is merging with the Youkai world. To be continued...

Jin Kobayashi and Harima Kenji

2008-12-08T08:12:00.000-08:00

Jin Kobayashi/Kobayashi Jin /小林尽 or KJ for short in some forums. Is the well known author and artist of the manga called School Rumble. His distinct likeness to the main male protagonist Harima Kenji made people interested in him. Many rumors sprung that he has a half American wife which is blond, who looks similar to Eri the half Japanese/American girl in School Rumble which is the most popular pairing for Harima. But as he said he want's to lay low and have a low profile, but it was too late after his public appearance looking EXACTLY like the main guy in School Rumble, though he said that Harima is only partly percent modeled after him and other characteristics are modeled after his friends. Harima is great at basket ball and on a side note KJ plays basketball whenever he's not doing manga and speaking of basketball and friends did you knew that Takeshi Kusao the voice of Hanamichi Sakuragi from Slam Dunk is his friend?

Though when School Rumble ended many trolled, flamed, bashed and basterdized the poor guy, including yours truly. lol. Since many fans where not satisfied with the ending KJ gave the fans. Thus for a saving grace for his masterpiece he created a new School Rumble Manga entitled School Rumble Z. Which has more gags and has no plot. It's funny non the less, but the fans wanted the story and answers to the pairings and plot. Ironically on SRZ chapter.3 Jin Kobayashi kinda, indirectly explains his well being. As chapter 3 of SRZ starts with a poor depressed mangaka Harima(similar to KJ after the end of SR for not satisfiying the fans), which he turned into a professional baseball player due to "some lucky Fish Bone Pen" then losing everything because Tenma called him and he dropped his cigar and burn all his life, putting him in the same spot as the start. All that was left was his fish bone pen and Harima said to himself that. "I may have lost everything, but still I still can be a mangaka...". Which is ironically similar to his old interview that he was asked a question that if was not doing manga what would he'd be. He replied that he'd be an illustrator or anything related to manga and drawing since he loves to draw. KJ's main inspiration is Dragonball, one reason also for Harima to turn into a saiyajin monkey ape in one of the chapters of SR, also the anime and manga featured Harima turning Super Saiyan.

And so what else I can conclude about Harima and KJ? Well I guess hints and bits of his personal life is in the SR and SRZ manga which is secretly puts indirectly. SRZ manga is now at chapter.4 which features a young Harima, Tenma and Yakumo. Which is a flashback to the School Rumble manga. Seems KJ has been listening to fans and created a chapter which is within the School Rumble universe and not a spin off.
