Yo minna! Halloween’s coming, ne? Well apparently the citizens of Soul Society are getting ready for the party as well! Take a look and smile!
Byakuya and Renji are very much into the Halloween spirit, ne? Wish i had a whole picture of all shinigamis dressed up as their zanpakutos. That would have really been something!
Gackt was actually the first Japanese musician i listened to and i made the perfect choice. He’s not just a simple musician, he’s also a composer, lyricist, poet, author, actor, designer, model and of course, hot as hell!
His songs are totally great, he has an outstanding and powerful voice and i must say, the lyrics are amazing! Here’s my absolute favourite Gackt song, Redemption.
(You have to turn the volume up; sound is pretty low, but it’s the only one with the original video which is totally awesome and you must see!)
Redemption – lyrics
by Gackt
Shizuka ni sora ni kaeru anata no sugata wo What else can I do besides avenge you?
Namida ga kareru made zutto mitsumeteita
Afureru kanashimi wa kesenai kizuato ni
Wasure wa shinai to chikatta
Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase subete wo keshite miseyou
Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
You told me
Live as if you were to die tomorrow
Feel as if you were to be reborn now
Face as if you were to live forever
Furueru yubi de akai namida wo nazotta I had nothing to lose, nothing truth
Hakanai omoide ga yami ni ochite yuku
Saigo no hohoemi ga ukande wa kieru
Nukumori dake wo nokoshite
Yasashii dake no kotoba nara ima no boku wa iyasenai
Hateshinaku tsudzuku tatakai ni kono mi wo subete sasageru dake
Itsuka wa kono sora ni daremo ga kaeru kara
Wakare no kotoba wa iranai Make it up
Oreta tsubasa wo habatakase subete wo keshite miseyou
Itsu no hi ka owari wo mukaeru saigo no kane ga nari yamu made
Yasashii dake no kotoba nara ima no boku wa iyasenai
Hateshinaku tsudzuku tatakai ni kono mi wo subete sasageru dake
REDEMPTION
Redemption – lyrics translation
As your silhouette silently returns to the sky
I kept watching, until my tears dry up What else can I do besides avenge you?
I made a vow, upon my inerasable scars,
To never forget this overflowing sorrow
With a flutter of my broken wings, I shall try to erase everything
Someday we’ll meet our demise. but until the final bell stops ringing
You told me
Live as if you were to die tomorrow
Feel as if you were to be reborn now
Face as if you were to live forever
I traced my bloody tears with a quivering finger, I had nothing to lose, nothing truth Our fleeting memories are falling into darkness
Your final smile appeared, then vanished,
Leaving only warmth behind
Now, if only your kind words were enough to heal me
I’d devote my entire body to this never-ending battle
Since one day everyone will return to the sky,
There need not be any words of farewell Make it up
With a flutter of my broken wings, I shall try to erase everything
Someday we’ll meet our demise. but until the final bell stops ringing
Now, if only your kind words were enough to heal me
I’d devote my entire body to this never-ending battle
Yo minna! It’s been a while since i’ve come up with a high quality and … serious (meaning not placed in the “funny” section ) wallpaper. Well, the time has come for me to present to you the best Sasuke & Kakashi wallpaper. Here it is!
When i first saw this, i was like “OMG! This is perfect!” Look at the colors, the shades, the shapes, the smooth lines… I mean, there is absolutelly nothing that should be changed or added or removed. I have to say, i kinda like Sasuke a lot more after seeing this. Don’t ask me why, it’s just how it is. Oh, it’s also probably because i started liking Sasuke again after killing Orochimaru.
Anywayz, this is my current wallpaper and it will take some time before i’ll find one that’s going to be better than this.
Yo minna! I finished watching 07-Ghost and i must say it was amazing! However, i hope there will be a second season. There are many things that could still happen. I think this review will be the longest and the most filled with pics because i loved all the characters in this anime! This has never happened before. I guess it’s because of the graphics. Simply outsanding! Let me introduce you to the characters first of all:
1. Teito Klein – main character, master of the Eye of Mikhail, prince of Raggs Kingdom as he finally remembers it
2. Mikage- Teito’s best friend; initially even tho he knows that Teito was a former slave, he keeps standing by his side
3. Hakuren Oak – Teito’s roommate at church; they are paired up for the Bishop’s exam
4. Bishop Frau – saves Teito a couple of times from the Empire’s people; he is one of the 7 ghosts and is known as Zehel
5. Castor – another bishop, another one of the 7 ghosts and known as Fest
6. Labrador- another bishop, another one of the 7 ghosts and known as Profe
7. Ayanami - represents the Empire’s military; he is the main bad guy and also he appears to have something against Frau who weilds an enormous scythe that used to belong to Aya-tan.
8. Kuroyuri – one of Ayanami’s subordinates. I’m giving him his own spot here because he was one of my favorite characters even though he was on the wrong side and even though he fought Frau another of my favorites.
Ok now, the anime summary. Teito is a former slave who was sent to Barsburg Empire’s military academy because he was able to use Zaiphon which was some sort of supernatural power they used in battle. He doesn’t have any memories of his past, but his best and only friend Mikage is always there for him. After Teito passes the graduation exam along with Mikage, he encounters Ayanami and fragments of his lost memories start to come back. Ayanami is the man who killed his father. Teito attacks Aya-tan but is easily stopped and sent to prison. Mikage helps him escape and he plays the hostage role as Teito manages to get away. Ayanami uses his Zaiphon in order to stop him, but Teito is able to partially avoid it. A bishop finds him and takes the injured Teito to the church where he starts living with Frau, Castor and Labrador (the three bishops who were also three of the 7 ghosts).
Teito is the master of the Eye of Mikhail, an artifact for which his own country, Raggs Kingdom, had been distroyed. He decides to start looking for the truth behind his country’s history, his father and his tutor’s (who he had called “Father”) deaths.
(Teito being controlled by the power of the Eye of Mikhail)
Also, he is getting ready to avenge his best friend, Mikage’s death who is killed by Ayanami.
The 7 ghosts were sent to Earth by God to seal and guard Verloren, the God of Death who had fled after killing the daughter of the chief of heaven.
(Verloren)
The 7 ghosts look a lot like this.
(Castor in his ghostly form scaring Teito. Hi hi!)
I’m telling you, this is one awesome anime, great characters, perfect graphics, amazing storyline and cool theme songs. It is definetly a “must see anime”. Speaking of theme songs, listen to this and tell me you don’t like it. You’ll definetly lie!
This is the Raggs Requiem and i can’t stop listening to it! Well, i told you this would be a long review but i just really loved it and you really should watch it.
Ja ne!
LATER EDIT: Minna, awesome news!!! I’ve just found a post on Nomisuke’s blog that had really made my day. Apparently, we’ll see more of 07-Ghost next year! You can read the whole entry here: http://nomisuke.wordpress.com/2009/09/30/db-07-ghost-26/.
Yo minna! You know, i’ve always had a sort of a problem with my passion for animes. My friends just don’t understand what they’re all about and they always say something like: “Come on… Not cartoons again! You should watch Prison Break or Lost or stuff like that.” I do watch Doctor House, Criminal Minds and Ghost Whisperer, but you can not make me watch Prison Break or Lost.
Anywayz, getting back to the animes, if i like them, that doesn’t mean i can’t watch anything else. Also, i believe that animes can be watched by anyone, no matter how old they are, where they come from or what they do for a living. In addition, animes have soooo many fans all over the world that it would be best if … you don’t piss them off. You never know what an otaku can do. Now here’s the official threat!
So the bottom line is: be careful what you say when you’re talking to an anime fan! He really might use bankai. Don’t know what bankai is? Then you have to be twice as careful!
