KYOU の 楽園

It's the start of a new year, and I wish everyone a great new year ahead ^^

Did anyone attended any countdown activities last night?
I did, and here I went out with my friend and watched the countdown and fireworks in the harbour side ^^ It was great~

and I did come up with a few new year's resolution, and hope everyone can acheive your dreams this year, accompanying by the releases of your favourite manga artists, animes, seiyuus, etc ^^

It's Christmas time~~~~
Wish everybody a great christmas....*hands out presents*


^___^

it's so festive around~~~I like it!!!

Recently I found some videos for the Code Geass X Gundam Events back in 2008 in Tokyo Budokan. I am so happy to be able to find these videos (the gundam one is even subbed ^o^) ~~~but then it seems stupid for me not to search for this in the chinese sites,,it never occured to me before until I wanna find some seiyuu videos to watch >___> anyway,,,I watched them and I want to be there so much, my fav animes, my fav seiyuus, my fav places...oh dear, japanese people do have lots of chance to attend those activities,,I am so envy about it~~~it's also great that the event can took place in Budokan, as it is one of the most famous place for concert in the world, and many famous artists had performed there, Celine Dion, Avril Lavigne, L'Arc~en~Ciel, X Japan, you can search in wikipedia for  more...so great that now the anime events can be taken place in this prestigious place ^^
 

I love the seiyuus in both animes~~~Mamoru Miyano, Shinichirou Miki, Hiroyuki Yoshino, Hiroshi Kamiya, Takahiro Sakurai, Jun Fukuyama,,,they are all so charming!!! It's so awesome to hear their voice acting LIVE~~~and it makes me cry when I saw the performance of Miki-san for Lockon ;____; It's such a good show!!!


xxxholic.Rou ch.194 is out, the scanlation can be found in onemanga,,,the colour pages are fantastic!!! and with the appearance of ( SPOILER )


and the Kobato Drop 19 has been out,,,but in chinese only~~~ it's such a short chap >___< why does clamp only give us this little everytime, when can the manga progresses at a higher speed? but then it's great to see ( SPOILER )am I spoiling too much? hope there will be english scanlations soon ^^

Some of you may have already known why I am posting with this title (?)

Yesterday there was an event held in Tokyo about Code Geass because it was/is Lelouch's birthday (you choose the verb yourself...) In the event,it was announced that there will be a new stage of Geass. It implies there will be some new animations or whatever about Geass. This is a heated news now, I am sure, in the anime community, or geass community or clamp community...

You may refer to www.geass.jp for the official poster too.


Concerning the new animation,,I sincerely hope that there is something like movie version or so....if it's indeed another anime series,,,I strongly oppose the idea of a thrid season about Lelouch. I think the two seasons are just perfect, addtion about that in another season would just make things worse. I think Lelouch's dead and there are many reasons for that....I don't wanna argue that for an essay...maybe I will tell some later ^__^

But the point is,,,if it will be another story about Geass...just like the Gundam series...that Geass exists in another timeline or world, that would be acceptable to me....there will be news coming,,,so i can wait ^^

It's Nakumonka by Ikimono Gakari

( Here's the lyrics>> )

( How is LJ cut gonna work? )

 

WAAAAA~~~~!!!!!

I'm so excited about the New xxxholic OAD coming on April 23, 2010....it will talk about the Rou chapters,,,xxxholic animations always have very high quality ^__^ Looking forward to it....

and that means, we still have about 3 to 4 months of xxxholic to read? It'd be great ^__^

Great Newsssss~~~xxxholic is gonna have vol.17 with the OAD~~~By the look of recent chapters I think vol.17 is necessary to wrap up the story = v = Since not much progression is made in ch,190 too,,

The Kobato anime is really good,,,the appearance of Kohaku, and Usagi-chan is much earlier than in the manga,,,and Kohaku-chan even has conversation with Ioryogi-san ^0^

Too bad we won't get xxxholic chap and kobato anime next week ;___;

Kobatoooooo~~~it's so cute to see the interactions between her and Fujimoto!!!! Cute as always,this episode,,,,and the most surprising thing is the appearance of Kohaku and Shuuichirou =0= Kohaku "this presence is..." reminds me of CCS Sakura,,,coz it's the same sentence,,,The twins are cute too ^^

xxxholic,,,it's still a story to tell, is it? won't end soon, right? Can we hope for Vol 17? =0= The instrument,,,how will Watanuki solve the problem? >__> Mysterious!!!

This few months, there are many seiyuus who I dearly LOVE release their singles and albums ^__^ I am looking forward to hearing their songs ^o^

First,,,of coz is my Maaya-san,,,who will release the single 'Magic Number', which is the Opening theme of Kobato,,,



1. Magic Number 2. Private Sky 3.Kazamidori-Live Version 4.Poketto Wo Sora Ni Shite-Live Version

Maaya-san is gonna have a live in BUDOKAN~~~~~~in the coming March: to celebrate the 15th anniversary since her debut!!!

2nd is Mamo-chan,,,He is going to release his single 'Refrain' ^__^ I have seen the short PV of this song, which I think is awesome for him and the type of song suit him much~~~*fangirling*



1.Refrain 2.Toroi Merai 3.蒼ノ翼 (Ao no Tsubasa?)

3rd is Miyu-kun's coming single: 'Faith',,,He looks so cool in the cover >//< I like this aspect of him,,,although I like the cute and funny side of him too ^^ The cover reminds me a lot of Tsubasa,,,coz there're wings and then he is the seiyuu for Syaoran-kun (aka Tsubasa-kun) XD



1. Faith 2.Not yet decided 3.Not yet decided

LAST BUT NOT LEAST: Fukujun-sama!!! The cover was drawn by Clamp-sensei and one of the song's lyrics was written by the Code Geass director,,,it's an album which means I am going to have many songs to listen in the coming months ^^ OHOHOHO~~~



There are 10 songs in total~~~

I don't why there's so many songs' release the coming months,,all the seiyuus I like =0= BUT THAT'S GREAT!!!

and Plus,,,it's Daisuke Namikawa for Gensei,,,my first response for this piece of news is screaming 'REALLY???'
He is the seiyuu for Fai in Tsubasa!!!!!!!!! and as I said in other places (forum, LJ, etc) that Ioryogi and Ginsei is pretty much a official couple now XDXD (Kuro-puu and Fai's seiyuu together in another Clamp's anime,,HEY~~~~~~*love*

So from today until next Sunday, I will be really free and there's high time I spam arond here XDXDXD What to say....it's just really random today T___T Did anyone watch the Kobato ep 1? I think it's cute,,,but the impression is not that strong...I mean,,I will continue to watch it every time when it's release because I am a Clamp fan,,,if I am not, I probably won't wait for it every week =___= Of course, I think there's still more to come,,,and I don't think I am disappointed ^__^ Just that the desire to catch it as soon as possible doesn't exist @__@

the Tsubasa Epilouge,,,it's brilliant I think,,,I will surely buy the vol.28 in deluxe version + the artbook coming along n__n

At a loss of what to say =___= I will update as soon as I have got loads of feelings about something --.--

Mika Kikuchi (Mokona's seiyuu) and Yuuji Kishi (Fuuma's seiyuu in Tsubasa) are getting married.Congratulations~~My best wishes to them. ^___^

and the drawing was made by Nekoi-sensei...all Clamp members seem really excited about it,,,as seen in their messages in their official site >>> They are all congratulating Mokona and Fuuma XD Of course I know they are close to Mika-chan ^^ and Clamp themselves would think it's them who make this happen?? XD (well...that's true as they started their relationship in Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations ^^..and thank to Clamp there's also Shunraiki...hoho)

Long Time No See everyone >.<!!!!!!
I've been busy and not have so much time to post things here...well some of you may see me in Clamp In Forumland>>But anyway,,I really don't have time to spend so much time to spam everywhere =___= (Making Excuses? =P)

Alright,,,the purpose of posting here today is to WISH EVERYBODY a GREAT MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL!!! For those who can read Chinese,,中秋節快樂~~~~~~It's a festival to celebrate the full moon and signifies reunion of family =] It's also a sign that AUTUMN should approach,,yea..I feel a slight change in weather in night time ^^ I love cool weather~~YAY!!

Hope everyone will enjoy full moon tonight with a bit of mooncake,,,if you can find one in yr area XD

There's a lot of Clamp going on and next week there will be the debut of Kobato anime and the Epilouge of Tsubasa,,really a week to look forward to...My mood now is so high~~(combined with the festival mood I believe) =)

Tsubasa ch.231,,,after I have read that,,,there are several things I wanna point out...Spoiler Alert!!

Why is reborn.clone.Syaoran (aka Dad.Syaoran) becomes a feather when he disappears? and that feather,,if u look at it clearly,,,it is without the sign/symbol like the ones in Sakura's feathers throughout the story. Why is it so? Is there any importance of that?? Well, consider that they will finish it with one/two chapters I don't think it may get explained = v =

xxxholic ch.186. Know the plot from the spoilers>>still unpredictable as always,,, ^^ We have still got 4 months of manga,,,though with all its breaks I wonder how many issues are going to be released =.=

Kobato Drop.16 ~~ Yay for FujimotoXKobato...hope to see the anime soon ^___^

What a week of being a clamp fan (* v *) All the releases and updates *sigh*

--------End of talk about manga----------------

Recently, I am addicted to the music of the brilliant green, a japanese band,,,I think most of you who visits my LJ may know about their song 'ash like snow' as it's one of the op song of Gundam 00. and that's how I start to listen to their music ^__^ I like many of their songs, like Tsumetai Hana (Cold Flower), Rainy Days Never Stays, and Stand by Me. Maybe you'll think they're quite ordinary,,but I really like this type of songs ^^

I may not be updating on LJ for the coming week because I will be quite busy,,I will peek at any comments or any messages here though....see you all later then ^_^

As some of you may know,,from xxxholic ch.186,,,the title will be changed to xxxHolic・籠,,,the the story will tell about 4 years of timeskip since Watanuki made the decision in last chapter,,,as you can see below,,Doumeki is much more grown up and wears a suit >///<

Originally I am really busy and not be able to post things here today,,,BUT,,,since a typhoon hit HK (not directly though) I don't need to go back to classes this morning and I just grasp this opportunity to come online ^__^

Spoiler

and there are many more spoilers around over the clamp_now  community,,,including translation of plots in ch.186...

Oh,...Clamp...you are making my mouth open everytime I saw those spoilers =0= Never short of surprise when you become a Clamp fan,,,be prepared for that if you decide to be addicted n___n

So...as all Clamp/Tsubasa fans would have known:

Tsubasa will be ending in 2 chapters,,with the final chapter due on 30th September
The final chapter will have 30 pages and colour page.
Vol.28 and the 2nd Artbook will be released on 17th November

xxxHolic will probably end at December this year.
