Much more than crafting Ice Cream.
I lost a friend over something I have said in the past during this week.
I want to let you know that I had a bad week (mainly from stress that came from studying for exams and a load of coursework. Also, I had a lack of sleep) this week and I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. If there something that I am doing wrong, just let me know and I won’t do it again. Losing a friend over something like that hurts me.
Update: It’s finally resolved.

I was on an answering spree last night…
If you could step into the role of any anime character, who would it be?
Answer: A male lead with a harem of females… Every male’s dream. heheh.
which 3 anime you would recommend to people who haven’t watched any anime before ?
Answer: Perhaps Kanon or Clannad as they are pretty deep storyline, good drama and animation. While you at it, just say any Kyoto Animation shows since they do a pretty good job adapting it to a show (Suzumiya Haruhi would be an obvious choice. Watch the first season and the movie. Forget the second, since its garbage).
Any of Makoto Shinkai movie, especially 5 Centimeters Per Second. Its good stuff. Also, any Miyazaki movie would do fine as well.
1st anime character that you fell in love with ?
Answer: Shiori Misaka…
Why? Her story is pretty touching. The second character that I love is Misuzu Kamio for the same reasons.
Say you’re feeling down, is there an anime that’ll cheer you up after watching it ?
Answer: K-ON! Cake and tea will make everything better.
Do you feel you can be captivated by an anime or any story such that the feeling of absorption is very noticeable? Name that series! đ
Answer: Air, Clannad After Story, 5 Centimeters Per Second, Kanon, K-ON!!
Do you have some ritual you do before/after you watch anime?
Answer: From experience, I find that watching Anime in college a lot eaiser than high school even if the course load is a bit more than HS.
1. You always have access to a laptop during free time and Uni Wifi. HS usually doesn’t allow you to use laptops at school. Even if they did, you risk getting it stolen or broken.
2. Freedom. With college, you have free time if you do your work ahead of time.
From the past two years of going to college, I always managed to fit Anime in my schedule… HS is simply tedious with the everyday HW. This made following a series while trying to cover it a bit difficult.
Would you ever use a streaming site or keep using fansubs for currently airing Anime?
Answer: Fansubs…. I hate streaming sites since they don’t give you much freedom and they cost money. I rather use that money on buying the actual DVDs, which I can use on other devices.
Also, don’t forget to answer the questions I had asked: http://4ms.me/9LxFip, http://4ms.me/aD5khf
As I stated, anyone is free to ask me questions⊠I wonât bite. Either ask them through âAsk me Anythingâ page on Shioriâs Diary or on Tumblr
Its pretty ironic that I would be seeing Yosuga no Sora with this very similar character after using that background as my wallpaper back in June. The character in the said picture is Motoka Nogisaka, which is the clumsy maid archetype. Needless to say, she is still pretty cute.
From the show’s I have watched so far (MM!, Ore No Imouto Ga Konna Ni Kawaii Wake Ga Nai, Yosuga no Sora), it only seem that Ore No Imouto is the only show I really enjoyed out of the three. MM! was mediocre and Yosuga no Sora, I don’t know what the hell is going on with the plot and the added in risquĂ© scenes.
I predict that Yosuga no Sora will be dropped by the third episode if the plot does not move. As for MM!, I have to play it by ear. At the moment, I have a 33% approval rating on the shows I’m watching. It’s pretty sad that 2 of the shows besides Nogizaka Haruka were rather enjoyable last fall season.
So, am I going to pick up more shows in the Fall 2010 season? It depends on the blogosphere on what catches my eye. Otherwise, I won’t since I am a tsundere when it comes to Anime. :p
It worries me when Anime Blogosphere Secret Santa event starts on October 12, 2010 since I have to review one anime out of the three suggested titles… wow, thatâs going to be fun. :/
Note: Final Verdict will be posted in two weeks. Stay Tuned!
With most browsers supporting CSS3, its probably a good idea to use CSS3 instead of background images so that the browser will load the theme faster. After playing around with the CSS for nearly an hour, I got the blog theme to use only CSS3 and no images except the footer.

After 4 recent suicides linked to bullying, people are suddenly becoming aware of bullying and cyber bullying, Bulling is a very destructive act that can ruin someone’s self-esteem. It could ultimately leave the victim to depression or even suicide. I know how it feels since I have been bullied as a result of my nationality and the school administration does absolutely nothing in stopping the bullies. I’m not alone… Parents also experience this because the officials won’t do anything to stop it and leave them pretty hopeless.
With Technology becoming easier for people to communicate through the internet. At the same time, it could become a weapon since the nternet makes it easier to bully people online anonymously. This makes cyberbullying 10x more hurtful than regular bullying since you can’t tell whose doing it. Cyberbullying can range from insulting people online, spreading false rumors for intentions of hurting a person or sending of threatening emails and messages. Trolling or flaming messages towards a person is also considered cyberbullying depending on the content.
How do I respond to these messages? Just ignore and block them. If you ignore them, they most likely to give up and stop. Responding to them is a very bad idea since they know you will react and push your buttons even more.
What if it’s a person in your school thats cyberbullying you? First, take note of the email message and the number. Second, tell your parents and law enforcement officials so they investigate on the issue and don’t give up.
Just recently, the US Government is now taking notice of the bullying trend and having a summit on the bullying issue to come up with a plan to stop it. Even some states are pushing out tougher laws against bullying and cyberbullying. I think it’s a good thing they are finally doing something about it. Hopefully, it will lead in tougher anti-bullying and anti-cyberbullying laws and allow for education for bullying awareness since no person should ever have to deal with bullying and feel bad about him/herself. People should be able live a life free from worries without having to be stressed over who is going to pick on him/her next.
I think Miyazaki is right in this case… Technology even with its advantage has unleashed the pandora’s box that can never be closed.
Just recently, Author aka Pete Zaitcev of Ani-Nouto have posted a good number of blogs that died in July… and the number of blogs that died troubled me since typically, anime blogs have a trend of fading away with a good number of blogs staying alive for a long period of time.
Come to think of it, many of the blogs on Notcliche faded away, besides myself, Notcliche and Sun Shattered Glass, most of the Anime related blogs are pretty much inactive with Randotaku adding to the list of inactive blogs on the network. Its pretty tragic to see blogs fade away like that… but then again, theres always new Anime Blogs that takes it place, so I don’t see a problem… the circle of life in the AniBlogosphere, the strongest will have the less likelihood of fading away.
Also, congrats to Major Arcana for another year of good blogging (they turn 4 and 1 respectively). Let’s hope the AniBlogosphere have a bright future.

What is your favorite web site (excluding your own!) without question?
Answer: Well, besides the Anime Blogs I read, I would have to say Melative since it’s a kick ass media catalogging service, even though it’s not easy to use as MAL…
As for blogs, I think Anime Instrumentality, Mainichi Anime Yume and Major Arcana is the most interesting.
What is your most HATED anime?
Answer: I don’t really hate any titles… but Kampfer since the male lead is a big wuss… Also, Fruits Basket since it was so cliched and boring. :/
What show could you repeatedly watch without getting tired of it?
Answer: It depends on the show. Shows that have high rewatch values tend to be the ones I watch over again, most namely the shows on my favorites list.
Who are your favorite and most hated seiyuu?
Answer:Since I haven’t really watched that many shows, I can’t really say which is my favorite or what I hate the most. Then again, I don’t really hate any voice actors in general.
What is your favorite non-anime show?
Answer: Sadly, I don’t really watch any more non-anime shows, since I can’t really say what is my favorite.
If you could step into the role of any anime character, who would it be?
Answer: A male lead with a harem of females… Every male’s dream. heheh.
