Well, we all were sad about the break-up of Ellegarden. Here we go again; The vocalist’s voice comes back to us with the HIATUS.

Check this out:



Yeah, I know…

It’s been a while. News? Sure!

I watched a few J-Dorama’s in my absence.

Osen: Intro (Micro – Odore), very good sond, very catchy. 😉

I’d like you to check out Nodame Cantabile. It’s such a funny drama with lots of music (classical, which I like very much) – the main characters are funny, also very handsome. (hell! Chiaki kicks asses!)


Mwah, so funny. (here starring: Ueno Juri and Tamaki Hiroshi, main characters of Nodame Cantabile…)



Quite a long break

I’m sorry. It’s been a few weeks now since I last had any time to write a post about Japan / Asia and freakish stuff.
My life’s a complete mess at the moment.
I celebrated New Year in Cologne and afterwards my life started confusing me.
School’s horrible: I have to prepare myself for a project, 10 weeks unbelievable stress.
Leisure time’s horrible: School committee, schoolband, Dramaclub – enough to do. Oh and on top of that: Dancinglessons, maybe Vocallessons soon. Yikes!
And furthermore my boyfriend. He’s lovable, sure. But it’s like my thoughts can’t stand still. Hm.
Oh and yes: I have a cold. /:

But imagining this wouldn’t disturb my whole existence: I’m fine, thanks!

I try to post a few new things soon, there’s a little bit I want to write.
For example about a few series and a movie.
And I’m thinking about giving small Japanese-Lessons.

Be prepared!



NICO Touches The Walls

First I’d like to say:
HELLO! & 今晩わ and I’m so, so sorry for writing less posts this time. I thought it wouldn’t get that bad but this is what we get when Rael thinks, yep. I’m sorry. すみません!

So in the last time I checked out two new bands, which I actually like, found while reading a magazine.
Here’s the ‘review’ of the first one:

NICO Touches The Walls

Genre:
» Alternative Rock
Discography:
Albums
» Who are You – Full album (2008)
» How are You – mini album (2007)
» Runova X Handover – mini album (2006)
» Wall Is Beginning – mini album (2006)
Singles
» Long night – single (2008)
» Primitive-disc: Eden – 2CD single (2007)
DVD
» NICO Touches The Walls Live – DVD (2006)

The band is formed by Tatsuya Mitsumura at vocals / guitar, Furumura Daisuke at the guitar, Sakakura Shingo at the bassguitar and last but not least Tsushima Shotaro at the drums.
The guys went to the same highschool and soon the band was grounded back in 2004, same year they won a price at the “YAHAMA TEENS” contest, congratulations guys.
To be honest, it was the first time I ever heard of them EVEN THOUGH they did an opening song for Naruto. Well, guess I shouldn’t sleep that much.
Anyways, the music’s awesome.
I’ve fallen for Broken Youth, The Bungy and そのTAXI.160km/h, the whole album’s quite good though.
The music makes your feet wanna dance and move and quickly shake their toes. Weird picture, but yes, it is like I tell you. Believe me or not.
Give it a try:

Download Album “Who Are You?”


This isn’t uploaded by me. Anyways, make sure to delete this after 24h and support the band by buying their album. They sure are great! This is only for trial!


Result: 9/10
Yep!

‘Til soon. またね!

ONE OK ROCK ワンオクロック

Hey guys, here I am again. I had a rough time lately with various activities and studies and this kinda stuff that probably why I hadn’t thought of posting anything yet.
Well, here I am, back again~

Yesterday I recherched a bit and I found an extremely good band: ONE OK ROCK.
This band was grounded in 2005 and the bandmembers are Taka at vocals, Toru at the guitar and vocals, Ryota at the bass and Tomoya at the drums.
The genre is kinda hard to describe for me though. I’m not that good in stereotype music. Well, it’s ROCKmusic, haha.
Similar bands might be Abingdon boys school, UVERworld, sometimes ORANGE RANGE, definitely Ellegarden, but all of them are completely different.
I guess you need to have a try yourselves.

ONE OK ROCK – トレテリミト抱

Have fun!



Romantic Princess 公主小妹

Hellow, hellow. ^^
Good to have you back and I recently started a new Drama, haha. I’m getting crazy over this whole love-story bullshit but I can’t help but watch it.
Romantic Princess (公主小妹) was the first choice because I liked the characters from Fahrenheit alot – yeah~ they’re definitely hot but who couldn’t help but agree with this.
The series is completed with 13 episodes but I haven’t finished it yet – but ’til now: I really, really like this heart-breakin’ stuff. Well, apparently I’m just a girlish girl. Haaah. Yeah, I really am.

Cast:

Wu Chun as Nan Feng Jin 南風瑾
Angela Zhang as Mai Qiu Sui (Huangfu Shan) 麥秋穗(皇甫珊)
Calvin Chen as Nan Feng Cai 南風彩
Gu Bao Ming as Huangfu Xiong (EMP) 皇甫雄
George Hu as Nan Feng Lin 南風璘
Li Ang Lin as Nan Feng Ying 南風影
Genie Zhuo as Gong Mo Li 宮茉莉
Hsia Ching Ting as Yi Sen Chuan 伊森川
Bu Xue Liang as Mai Cong Guang 麥聰光
Huang Jia Qian as Mai Ge Hao Wa 麥戈浩娃
Lu Jian Yu as Head of Guards
Ye Hui Zhi (葉蕙芝) as Head of Housekeepers
Long Chen Han (隆宸翰) as Ah Jie 阿傑
Feng Yuan Zhen (馮媛甄) as Ah Bao 阿寶
Qing Xuan (晴宣) as Sha Sha 莎莎
Li Yi Hua (李衣驊) as Maid

As you can cleary see: They are a few good actors, indeed, indeed.
The drama is based on the manga “Romance Godan Katsuyou” by Kazuko Fujita and started Sep 2007.
Alright, so all in all: My first impression is really good. The drama is fun, heart-breaking and good acted – and I really like the story. Who doesn’t want to be a princess like her, surrounded by such good-looking boys? T-T Kyah! So unfair! …Haha!

 

Opening song by: Fahrenheit & SHE

 


Wu Chun as Nan Feng Jin


Angela Zhang as Mai Qiu Sui

Triple 트리플

こんいちはみなさん!
I just surfed around a bit and found out that Lee Sun Gyun will be starring in next year’s K-Drama “Triple” from famous director Lee Yoon Jung, who also directed Coffee Prince.

For now I found out that the drama will be about two skaters, played by Kang Ji Hwan and Min Hyo Rin, one’s a speed skater, the other’s a figure skater. According to DramaWiki they’ll become professional figure skaters in the course of time.
Sounds quite weird to me though that Lee Sun Gyun actually takes part in such a series, but let’s be rapt. I patiently await this, let’s see if it’s any good.

Bye~bicycle! ^^

Start: January 2009
Cast: Kang Ji Hwan, Lee Sun Gyun, Yoon Kye Sang, Min Hyo Rin, Nam Gyu Ri

Lee Sun Gyun will be starring in “Triple”.

Base Ball Bear (again)—-
geez, you really need to listen. I’m flashed … I guess it’s been 4 years now since I’ve been that impressed.
At the moment I’m listening to two albums all the time: “C” and “十七歳”.
My favorite tracks are probably “Crazy For You no Kisetsu”, “愛してる(aishiteru)” and “Last Dance”.

Total points: 10/10 at least.
