Anisong: Spirale

On December 12, 2009

In case you’re wondering about how all the songs so far are on the soft and gentle side, yes it’s deliberate. I do like a number of the stronger and more upbeat songs too, but those just don’t quite do as ambient background music, don’t you think?

Here is ‘Spirale‘, the first OP to Aria the Origination – third and sadly final season of that delighting show. I have a revisit post on Aria in the pipeline, so having this song up would hopefully prevent it from getting caught in the perma-procrastinate loop that hath heretofore consumed too many a stalwart idea. :(

Romaji lyrics and translations (and pic!) after the jump as usual. Hope you enjoy it as I did! Remember, hit F8 to listen along while reading.

Nanami Madobe? How about Rina Kusuda?

I guess, given the resonance of the news with the geek-otaku underpinnings of this blog, it’s high time I finally came out and said something about this chick:

Tsundere remark: W.. we have multi-touch support in KDE SC 4.4 too. J-Just so you know!

(Warning: this post may contain an unhealthy dose of nonsense)

Evangelion 1.0 – or You (Knew) it was Coming

By Jason "moofang"

In Evangelion

People who know me probably saw this coming a mile away when I casually noted that I would take a side trip down memory’s lane :roll:

If you’ve watched Eva 1.0 and mused on the subtle differences from the original series, and thought to yourself that it’d be nice if some random Evafag would come along and do all the rewatching and comparing that you’re too lazy to do for yourself, well, you may have come to the right place!

Revisiting Clannad After Story 18

By Jason "moofang"

On December 2, 2009

In Clannad, Muse

Since I was rudely interrupted in the course of blogging the current season (by the violent atomification of my old blog), I’ve decided to give that up, and instead take inspiration from Dustin’s Evangelion post and make a side trip down memory’s lane to revisit some of the older but highly deserving shows that I haven’t had a chance to feature. Or, in the case of Clannad, that I feel my previous writings had failed to do proper justice to.

Anisong: Soba ni Irareru Dake de

By Jason "moofang"

In Anisong, Sora no Otoshimono

It’s a new blog and a new beginning and all, so I figured I might as well start something random – whenever I change the anisong that I embed here on my blog, I’ll make a small accompanying post with the (romaji) lyrics and translation. Personally I can remember a good number of anisongs that I started liking a whole lot better after I understood some of the lyrics, so I guess you could say this is my way of sharing that in some small way :) No guarantee that I’d be disciplined enough to keep this up though, but if you like the idea, let me know!

Without further ado, here’s the first installment! Soba ni Irareru Dake de, the ED to the first episode of Sora no Otoshimono (which so far is the only episode I liked).

In case it still isn’t clear by now, you can listen to the song by hitting the F8 key.

Lyrics and translations (and a pic!) after the jump :)

AFA 09 (not so) Quick Cover

Whew! Ok, just gonna quickly pen a post on AFA (that’s Anime Festival Asia) 09 before my memories of it dim any further. Much of it is what you’d expect of an anime con, and I’ll let my shoddy photos near the end do the talking for those, but before we hit that, let me first dedicate a couple of paragraphs to the live dubbing session(s!). It was after all the first time in my little life that I beheld seiyuus working their craft at such close proximity ;)

And the crowd goes completely wild. And I don’t even know that song :P

So I made a day trip down to Anime Festival Asia 09. Will probably do a coverage post of sorts for that in awhile, but right now I’m gonna just do a quick after-event (okay, more after-concert) impressions pen-down.
