Different Dimensional Marriage Campaign

2008-10-31T15:02:00.005+08:00

Non-edited version

Since last week, a Japanese man is collecting signatures for a bizarre campaign he proposes. He requires Japanese government to permit the marriage with anime characters, legally.

details

We are not interested in three-dimensional world anymore.
If possible, we wanna be citizens of two-dimensional world.

However, it won't come true with the science technology nowadays.
Then, don't you permit the marriage with two-dimensional characters?

If it comes true, I (proposer of this campaign ) will marry with Asahina Mikuru."

And he aims to collect 1,000,000signatures for this campaign.

--
It looks there are lot of legal issues he has to overcome to realize this project.

First of all, he has to worry about the problem of double marriage.

Now he wants to marry to Asahina Mikuru ( I remember she is a famous character of Suzumiya Haruhi series), but at least, I guess there are 10,000 hentais or more in this world who think like that. Unfortunately, Japanese current law don't permit double marriage.

And if he could marry to the anime character he loves somehow, then the another legal problem appears. When somebody marries in Japan and the wife doesn't work, people can apply for a tax deduction, and the amount deducted reduces one's tax drastically. If Japan's government permit this kind of marriage, it will have to suffer from the more serious financial problem.

And most importantly, the proposer is young, and doesn't know how the marriage in reality is. I mean, what for?

Of course, I won't say like a child, “You can't have a baby!!”. I know the marriage in modern days is not always for that purpose as it was in feudal era.

Young people tend to think that marriage is a kind of hopeful, dreamy, wonderful engagement between the people in love. But old people who experienced hardship know, marriage is just a temporary tag team to support each other.

What do they do for their wives? And what do their wives do for them? At least, when you got sick, it's sure the anime characters worn't help him both financially and physically. And when you are sixty-four and become a patient of Alzheimer's disease, the wife in 2D world just smiles from the poster on the wall and you will just die on the bed with the shits and pukes around you.

(*Some may say that even a three dimensional wife sometimes treats her husband like that, though.)

I think the person started this project influenced by the campaign for the same-sex marriage. But different from homosexual persons who have to endures some disadvantages because their marriage is not permitted legally, the person who loves anime characters so badly doesn't have any problems even if he is not married. His wife doesn't have to nurse his husband in hospital. He doesn't hold a funeral for him. And his wife doesn't have to inherit his property.

So, I think this campaign is just ridiculing the persons who requires the right of marriage seriously. Unfortunately, the current prime minister of Japan is interested in two-dimensional world so badly, but I wish Mr Ass-Hole won't take this campaign into consideration even if this campaign could collect signatures from 10,000,000 anime otakus in Japan.

ANIME

2008-08-13T20:18:00.003+08:00

Part 1 - Introduction to Anime
The definition of anime
The word “anime” is the Japanese word for “animation” or “cartoons,” adapted from the English word “animation.” In Japan, the word is used to refer to any cartoon or animation, whether it be from Japan or another country. But ever since Japanese animation became widespread throughout the world, the word “anime” has developed a different meaning in other countries. In America and most other non-Japanese countries, “anime” is used to refer to any form of animation exclusively from Japan such as animated TV shows and animated movies. However, unlike America’s attitude towards animation - that it’s only for children with the exception of a few adult comedies - the Japanese consider animation to be an acceptable form of entertainment and storytelling for all kinds of people. Thus, anime is aimed at a variety of audiences and is enjoyed by Japanese, as well as American fans, of all ages and tastes.

A brief history of anime
Like most other countries, animation has existed in Japan throughout the 20th century and onward, beginning with traditional drawings and comics that dealt with political, social, and historical themes. But unlike most other countries, “manga,” which refers to Japanese comics, has had a major influence on Japanese culture and is one of the oldest and most successful of Japan’s ongoing media industries. The success of anime in Japan began with the success of manga in Japan, particularly by the work of famous Japanese artist Osamu Tezuka. In the 1960s, Tezuka became the most famous manga artist and credited inventor of Japan’s modern manga industry. Thanks to Tezuka’s influence, the genres and stories in Japanese animation have became more various, creative, and universal than they had ever been before. And with the success of comics or “manga” in Japan, it was inevitable that the success of animation or “anime” was soon to follow when television and movies were invented. Since then, the anime and manga industries in Japan have become even more successful than the Japanese live-action film industry. Hundreds of new anime TV shows air in Japan every year and hundreds of manga series’ are serialized in various Japanese publications from women’s magazines to children’s books. It’s not exactly clear why the Japanese are so much more enamored with cartoons and comics than the US and other countries. Perhaps they are simply a more visual or pictograph-centered culture, with their writing system also being very pictorial. But whatever the reason, the animation industry in Japan is unlike any other, and since the end of World War II, Japan soon began to share some of that industry with the West.

Anime brought to the US
Years before anime became an established part of American culture, a handful of anime shows managed to find their way to American television in the latter half of the 1900s. One of Osamu Tezuka’s most famous series’, Astro Boy, first aired in the US in 1963 and is considered the first anime to ever be released in the US. Other early anime that aired in the US include Robotech, Battle of the Planets, and Voltron. However, since anime in the US at this time was marketed together with American shows and cartoons rather than in its own genre, anime usually faced major script editing such as character name changes and dialogue alterations in order to make the shows more “Americanized.”

It was not until the late 1990s when the Japanese franchise Pokemon became massively popular in the US that anime began to truly be acknowledged as something distinct from American cartoons. The immense success and popularity of the Pokemon anime and video games in the US paved the way for other anime titles to be brought over. For a while during and after Pokemon’s success, other popular anime introduced to the US such as Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, and Yu-Gi-Oh! were targeted at children, so anime was still considered to be children’s shows just like American cartoons. But as time went by, America’s fascination with anime steadily grew until finally mature, non-children anime shows were introduced either straight to home video or on Cartoon Network’s late-night block of shows called Adult Swim. Anime has since been marketed as its own unique form of entertainment. It isn’t just children’s cartoons, nor should it necessarily be Americanized, as most anime nowadays have very well translated English dubs. Anime has also become popular in England, France, Korea, Australia, Germany, Italy, and many other countries.

Unfortunately, even with anime’s rising popularity outside Japan, most Americans are still ignorant about what anime really is. Many still call it “that Pokeman stuff” and consider all anime to be kiddy shows like Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh!. Others think that anime is mostly violent and pornographic cartoons (though there is pornographic anime, most anime is not). Although many Americans still look at Japanese animation from their American perception of cartoons, it is wrong to define all Japanese animation by one or two genres when you consider the thousands of anime shows, movies, and manga series’ that exist, with more being made all the time. So what is it that makes anime so special? In the US alone there are numerous anime conventions held every year, almost all major media and video stores have a good selection of anime DVDs, every bookstore and library has a shelf or two full of just manga, and many TV channels broadcast one or more anime shows. But just why do Japanese animated shows deserve so much more recognition than American, or any other cartoons for that matter?

Part 2 - Why is Anime Popular?
Differing attitudes about animation
One of the main reasons anime has become popular in America is because of Japan’s accepting attitude towards animation that is so different from America’s attitude. All American-made cartoons, whether in comic books, movies, or TV shows, fall into one of just a few different categories; silly, slapstick comedies such as Looney Toons and Tom and Jerry, mild and simple diversions for children such as Winnie the Pooh and Rug Rats, mature comedies and satires for adults such as The Simpsons and South Park, action/super hero adventures such as Batman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, or general family-friendly entertainment like Disney movies. That’s really all the genres that exist for American animation - its either children/family entertainment or an adult comedy. However Japanese animation extends to much greater boundaries than these by having all kinds of genres to suit all ages and preferences including action, comedy, science-fiction, romance, sports, mystery, adventure, drama, fantasy, slice-of-life, psychological thrillers, space adventures, sitcoms, and much more. In addition to these, there are also a number of genres that are unique to anime and manga such as “shonen,” which focuses on fast-paced action and fighting amid complex fantasy settings, “shojo,” which focuses on the romantic relationships and inner conflicts of the characters, and “mecha,” which features futuristic settings in which humans pilot giant, anthropomorphic robots. From stories about romantic relationships, alternate fantasy worlds, daily school life, giant robots, futuristic cities, gun-slinging outlaws, interpersonal conflicts, competitive tournaments, unrequited love, shady organizations, carefree adventures, and much more, anime covers an extremely wide range of themes and stories. Since anime is so widely accepted in Japan as an entertainment form for all ages, and because animation is such a giant industry in Japan, saying “I like anime” is almost like saying “I like TV” (except with animation instead of real people) - that’s how diverse anime and manga are and why Americans looking for something beyond live-action shows can find such variety and creativity in Japanese animation.

Realism in animationNot only does anime cover a much more variety of themes and genres than typical cartoons, it always keeps a steady devotion to reality. Even the most fantastic and out-of-this-world anime adventures place a strong emphasis on keeping their characters and situations believable. Many anime shows feature extremely complex fantasy settings that have their own unique and intricately woven history, politics, and complex backgrounds for each character. A quick search on Wikipedia for some such anime shows like Code Geass, Bleach, or Eureka 7 will show the excessive detail that is put into creating the complicated settings and characters for these shows and thus making them seem realistic and believable even if they are total fantasy. American cartoons, on the other hand, don’t try to stimulate this degree of realism in their audience or make their audience believe that what they’re seeing could possibly be more than just cartoon characters. Even serious and dramatic American cartoons such as Disney movies like Mulan and The Lion King still present their characters mainly as fictional beings. Also, the seriousness of these movies is often interrupted by exaggerated cartoonish verbal cracks, songs, and gags, solely there to remind the audience that what they’re watching is a fictional cartoon (John 227). That’s not to say that anime doesn’t have moments of hyperbolic and cartoonish humor, but most anime with a serious and dramatic storyline such as Death Note and Mushishi would never have random cartoon gags or sarcastic jokes to break away from the realism of the show. Even if serious anime does have characters who portray cartoon-style humor, these gags are often initiated to show a humorous aspect of the character’s personality rather than just as a distraction from the show’s realism. The Japanese also have a very different idea of humor than Americans do. While a lot of modern comedy in America utilizes “crude” humor and sarcasm, humor in Japanese shows is usually “character-driven,” derived by poking fun at the characters’ quirks and personality flaws, again emphasizing realism by having characters with amusing faults just like real people. Often times this makes it necessary for the viewer to get to know the characters and story in an anime series in order to understand the jokes. With the exception of some slapstick anime comedies, humor in most other anime is strictly within the characters’ personalities, so anime shows can feature both serious drama or violence together with comedy without either seeming out of place.

Another realism aspect of anime that is missing in most American children’s cartoons is the direct exposure of the more darker aspects of life such as blood, violence, drinking, swearing, sexual innuendo, and murder. Even anime such as One Piece and Naruto, which are very popular children/family shows in Japan, have many scenes of intense violence and blood, alcohol and smoking references, foul language, and the suffering and deaths of the characters. What is considered acceptable to show to children in Japan when compared to America is obviously quite different because of the differences between their cultural ideals; as I’ve pointed out, even in anime the Japanese culture places a heavy emphasis on realism and it believes in exposing its children to all facets of life that they’ll eventually have to deal with, no matter how negative these facets may be. On the other hand, American culture tries to hide the more darker aspects of life from their children out of fear that they may become corrupted or traumatized. As a result, many anime that is considered children’s entertainment in Japan is almost always edited if it has any scenes of blood, violence, or other questionable content when it is brought to American TV. Only anime given a TV-PG or higher rating can get away with having explicit blood and violence, sexual references, and bad language on American television.

Character development
While anime strives to keep its stories believable, probably the main distinction that separates it from American cartoons is its deep involvement in its characters and its strong emphasis on their characterization. John, an anime expert who has an archive on the Anime Nation (a large anime store in Florida) web site where he answers questions about anime, states that the distinction is simply this: “American cartoons will place characters in a situation. Anime places situations around characters. Many anime shows have a continuing story, while very nearly all American cartoons are episodic, created specifically to be a series of individual, stand-alone stories rather than small pieces of a whole. Even in the case of anime series’ that are episodic, the characters develop and change from episode to episode. Anime, therefore, engenders more personal involvement between the show and the viewer than typical American cartoons do.” (126) Even anime characters who seem stereotypical or one-sided in their personalities often exhibit feelings of love, hate, fear, yearning, and other such human emotions. In fact, there are numerous anime shows (besides just comedy and sitcom) in which there is no defined villain or antagonist and conflict is derived strictly from the characters’ own inner flaws and personal issues. It is because of this emphasis on not using the black and white “good guys and bad guys” formula that viewers are made to sympathize with anime characters and not merely be entertained by them.

Not only do American cartoons such as Looney Toons, Tom and Jerry, Family Guy, and Scooby Doo have stand-alone, individual episodes that usually have no connection to one another, the characters in these shows remain basically the same throughout all the episodes, never developing or changing consistently as the episodes go by. Most anime, on the other hand, has practically all of its characters change episode by episode as a result of their situations and their relationships with other characters, and even the most detestable character can show an endearing side as the anime progresses. The best anime shows make their characters real, with real human emotions and actions that never seem out of place for the character. Creators take great pains in making their characters fully developed and defined individuals with their own conflicts, flaws, motives, and a personality that reflects their background history. Many anime episodes are spent simply exposing a character’s background story and their inner thoughts and feelings. The characters may even do a lot of unexpected, outrageous, or irrelevant things at times because their actions are wrought directly from their personalities and developments and not just as a means to move the story’s plot forward. Once again, a quick look at the Wikipedia pages for anime with very well developed characters such as Fruits Basket and Evangelion will give a good idea of how anime characters are more like fictional individuals rather than cartoon characters.

Intimacy with the audience
As a result of keeping its stories and characters very detailed and realistic, no matter how fantastical they may seem, anime is able to create a strong feeling of intimacy between itself and its audience that American cartoons, or even most American TV shows, do not have. Another thing that keeps this intimacy strong is, as John pointed out, the fact that most anime shows are thoroughly contrived stories with a beginning, middle, and end in which the characters develop and move towards their goals throughout the episodes, as opposed to the stand-alone, disconnected episodes of many American shows. Nearly all anime shows with a progressing storyline will present the audience with a number of questions and subplots that will only be solved if they continue to watch the episodes in order from beginning to end. In addition, a lot of anime will make references to characters or events in early episodes that don’t become significant until many episodes later, thus anime demands a certain level of commitment and dedication from its audience in order to follow and understand all the details of the story and characters. Most anime fans will agree that for a lot of anime shows, unless you start watching from the first episode onward, you will not be able to effectively follow the story.

One could argue that there are many American live-action movies and shows that feature a continuing story and developing characters so why do a lot of people still prefer anime over live-action? The answer to that is that anime can provide more involvement and interaction between itself and its viewer because its look and feel are so much more fantastical than live-action so it allows for a greater suspension of belief than the all-too-familiar live-action. And some people simply prefer watching animation, which brings direct form from imagination, instead of just actors and actresses pretending to be someone that they’re not. Since animation in America and most other non-Japanese countries is so limited in its genres and target audiences, anime allows people who like animation to see it in more various and creative ways than they ever could otherwise.

Part 3 - Creating Anime
Anime design
The typical design of anime characters with their large eyes, wild hairstyles, colorful clothing, and overall “non-Japanese” look has puzzled many Americans but there’s a reason for it. Osamu Tezuka was very much influenced by Walt Disney’s use of large, round eyes for his characters back in the early 1960s and 70s when the manga and anime industries where just starting out. Also during this time, Japan looked to the West in its innate yearning for success and saw that such a degree of freedom as that, would be impossible to attain in highly formal and polite Japanese society. Anime, being an escapist medium, highlighted this yearning by making its characters look “Western.” This allowed its Japanese viewers to immerse themselves in worlds that were completely different, with different cultures and people who looked more universal. Even in anime shows that take place in modern-day Japan, the unique look and design of the characters still create a feel that’s a bit more wild and adventurous than the Japan in reality. The fact that anime characters look Western but act Japanese and have Japanese names helped bring some connection between them and the Japanese audience. The Japanese audience could see the characters as Japanese people like themselves, but with a bit more worldliness, freedom, and diversity in them (John 153). Japan is a country that’s very open to the influences of other cultures, and that openness is reflected in the style of anime. Although the “big eye” look is common in anime, there are quite a number of anime that use a more serious, realistic style as well.

Anime production
The largest percentage of anime TV shows are based on a manga series, with a handful also being based on video games or novels. Animation studios obtain the rights to make anime adaptations from these existing mediums, usually changing them in some way from the original source for broadcast or time constraints. Anywhere from approximately 30 to 100 new anime shows are aired every season in Japan, with the largest number being in the fall and spring. These anime shows could be brand new stories or new seasons or sequels of past shows. Typically, anime TV shows run for either a half a season (around 13 episodes) or a full season (around 26 episodes). Since there’s so much anime being produced all the time in Japan, usually the only way an anime series may continue beyond a first season is if it becomes very popular. Anime shows that prove to be immensely popular may continue airing for years and accumulate hundreds of episodes, especially those based on a long-running manga series. Popular series’ may also get supplementary movie productions or special home video exclusive episodes.

Like many American TV shows, almost all anime TV shows are about a half hour long per episode. But anime also has a few extra things that American shows don’t have, most notably its use of opening and ending songs. Anime opening songs are much like the theme songs of regular TV shows and are used as a “hook” to get people into the mood of the show while simultaneously showing opening credits. However, it’s almost a tradition for anime opening songs to be about a minute and a half long and most use already existing songs from popular Japanese singers and bands rather than songs made specifically for the show. Just about every anime TV show has at least one opening song played at the beginning of every episode, and for the longer shows the opening song will change as the episodes progress. Anime endings songs are like opening songs in that they are also about a minute and a half long and use songs from Japanese singers, but they are played at the end of each episode. Although anime opening and endings songs are well loved by fans because of their aesthetics in blending the song together with animation, their main purpose is to promote the songs of the Japanese artists. In addition to opening and ending songs, the end of almost all anime TV episodes feature a quick preview of the next episode or other extra “post-episode” segments. Typically almost all anime episode follow the format of 1) opening song, 2) first half of the episode, 3) commercial break, 4) second half of the episode, 5) ending song, 6) next-episode preview.

Anime creation process
Like American and other cartoons, anime is cel-animation put together by individual frames to depict movement. Although most American animated movies and some TV shows have started using CG animation instead of hand-drawn animation, almost all anime both in TV and movies still use hand-drawn cel-animation (with the occasional CG to help with special effects). However, anime is created with a much smaller budget than American cartoons, so the process of putting it together is different. For American cartoons, the audio and voices are recorded first and then the mouth movements are animated to fit the spoken dialogue. But for anime, the opposite is used. All of the animation is produced first, which saves a lot of time and money instead of taking the time to make every single mouth movement match the corresponding words. The voice actors time their dialogue to match the amount of time the character moves his or her mouth. While it’s true that this process makes the dialogue not match the mouth movements exactly, the compromise is that when anime voices are being recorded, all the actors are in the same room together, seeing and reacting to one another while the animation footage that they’re recording for is being shown before them. The result is that the voices are much more lively, emotional, and spontaneous than Western animation, in which each voice actor is recorded separately and often alone in a room without seeing the other actors (John 216).

Many people have pointed out that not only do the mouth movements in anime not match the spoken dialogue, but the animation of a character’s face often looks “frozen” when he or she is speaking, with nothing but the mouth moving. This once again stems from the fact that anime’s budget is much tighter than Western animation, and making fewer cels of actual movement saves money. However, there is an advantage in this way of production. Since fewer cels are produced, Japanese animators spend more time on making each individual cel look as detailed as possible, and they also design their characters to look more detailed, realistic, emotional, and less “cartoony” than Western animation. While the details in the mouth movements and flow of the animation in anime may put off some American viewers, fans of anime both in America and Japan simply overlook these minor technicalities and focus their attention more on the characters’ dialogue, emotions, and reactions rather than how the frame-by-frame process works. Unlike the fast-paced movement of American shows and movies, where one particular frame is never shown for more than a few seconds, even kid’s anime is not afraid to be slow-paced and it may spend a lot of time focusing on things such as a sunset, cherry blossoms blowing in the wind, characters staring dramatically at each other, etc,. Once again, anime aesthetics demand a certain level of attentiveness and patience in its audience in order to be fully appreciated.

Part 4 - Anime Fandom
Anime music, art, and collectibles
As I’ve pointed out in Part 2, because anime emphasizes realism, has intricate, sympathetic characters and a continuing, defined storyline, it generates a lot more passion and intimacy from its fans than most other shows. Because of this, almost all anime shows, even those that are not particularly popular, will have many products and collectible items released for fans to buy. Music CDs are one of the most common of these items; almost all anime, even children’s anime shows, will have at least one CD released featuring songs such as the show’s opening song or ending song. A lot of anime also get CDs featuring just the background music used in the show. It’s also not uncommon in popular anime for each character on the show to get his or her own CD single with songs sung just by that character (or their voice actor if you will).

In addition to music, a lot of anime series’ also get collectible artbooks, books featuring pictures from the anime drawn by the creators. Again, since animation is more appreciated in Japan and is even treated as a form of art at times, anime artbooks even for children’s shows is not uncommon. Other popular anime collectibles include key chains, plush toys, calendars, stationary, and most notably figures. Unlike the “action figures” from American kid shows, anime figures are usually not made for kids to play with but for older, serious fans to collect and display. Popular characters from popular anime may get many different figures made for them. Figures are a huge part of anime fandom, especially in Japan, and they are also some of the most expensive and coveted anime collectibles.

Anime voice actors are also a big part of the fan community. Unlike in America where voice acting is grouped together with other forms of acting, since anime is such a large industry in Japan, anime voice acting is practically its own industry and many Japanese voice actors have done voices for a number of different anime characters and have their own fan following. Many anime voice actors in Japan are just as popular as regular actors in America.

Between music CDs, popular voice actors, artbooks, figures, and other collectibles, anime fandom is quite different from other fandom in America. In comparison, only the most popular American cartoons will get maybe a few action figures or other toys for the kids and that’s it. Even regular adult American TV shows don’t get CDs of background music and character songs, and only the most popular shows and movies might get a few posters, calendars, or T-shirts. This contrast makes it apparent that in anime fandom it’s desirable for fans to immerse themselves in and become really “into” each anime and show support by buying lots of products, while in America it’s considered childish to be that obsessed with anything but perhaps the most “hip” shows.

The anime online community
Since anime is still not a very well known hobby, the Internet has become one of the major outlets for anime fans. There are thousands of fan-run anime web sites, blogs, and online communities. The Internet has also become the best way for fans to display their anime-style artwork, original manga series’, and fan-made anime music videos. But probably the main online presence in anime fandom is fansubs. Fansubs are anime episodes or movies in their original Japanese dialogue with subtitles made by fans themselves and not by official companies. They are very popular among anime fans because many fansubs are made for episodes or movies of anime that haven’t yet been officially released and dubbed/subtitled by American companies. Although they’re technically illegal, so far fansubs are generally tolerated since most fansubbers create fansubs purely out of passion and not to make a profit. Also, fansubs help promote the anime market and they open opportunities for American companies to acquire the rights to anime shows that are currently popular fansubs. Since the number of anime that airs on American TV is only a fraction of the anime that airs on Japanese TV, most anime is released directly to DVD in the US. But anime DVDs can become quite expensive so a lot of people instead watch the free fansubs online. Although they are illegal, most American anime companies lack the funds and manpower to stop the fansubbers. But in spite of them being illegal, anime fandom outside Japan would definitely not be what it is today if it weren’t for fansubs.

Being an American anime fan
Anime fandom in Japan and anime fandom in America are two very different things, mostly because Americans have a one-sided view about cartoons that many of them are stubborn to change. Luckily, anime is becoming more and more immersed into American culture as the years go by so hopefully one day the majority of Americans will learn that anime is not just “Pokemon and pornography.” I don’t know if the American preconception that all animation has to be either kid stuff or adult comedies will ever completely fade away. But hopefully, with anime’s rising popularity in America, Americans will someday realize that there is no reason in the world why animation cannot portray the kind of stories found in any other creative medium.

Once every year, the Perseid meteor shower returns. They are often very fast and bright, and can sometimes leave fiery trails in the sky.

The Perseids are called so because of their apparent origin, called the radiant, in Perseus. A good time to start viewing them would be Monday night (8-11-08) into Tuesday morning (8-12-08). Look to the North and Northeast to see the most meteors.This is the best time to view meteor showers, as the Earth is rotating into the shower in the predawn hours. This will increase the meteor rate considerably. With good, dark skies (after the moon sets), expect up to 100 meteors per hour. Of course, light pollution and moonlight may decrease your observed meteor count.
So to sum it all up, heres a timeline:

August 8, 2008 - Perseids start.
August 11, 2008 10 PM - Good time to start viewing.
August 12, 2008 2 AM - Moon sets, viewing improves.
August 12, 2008 7:30 AM - Actual peak.
August 14, 2008 - Perseids taper off.

Uchimizukko

This years summer Uchimizukko will be held at Kanda Myojin on the 2nd August from 15:30 and then proceed to akiba where the event ends at 17:00.

This is a pic taken from last years event and you can see more maids and a description of this event at the previous Uchimizu article.
Video of last years event below.

If you are going to be available in Tokyo then see you there!

Dannychoo.com

According to my research
Uchimizu, which started Y2003 became the national movement in Japan with the participation of 7.7 million citizens. Uchimizu, spraying water to purify the "place" prior to welcoming the guest, is the traditional Japanese culture back to the Edo period. It has also the effect of cooling down summer heat and laying the dusts on the street.

The objective of the Mission Uchimizu is to address the issues of global warming as well as heat-island phenomenon which is becoming serious problem in the big cities like Tokyo. It is because that sprayed water could lower the temperature by evaporation.

Water used for the mission Uchimizu is treated water, so it became a good example of collaboration between the citizens and the local government, which is in charge of waste water management.
This is cool=D

珊瑚海-周杰伦 lara

男:海平面远方开始阴霾
悲伤要怎么平静纯白
我的脸上始终挟带
一抹浅浅的无奈
女:你用唇语说你要离开
男:心不在
男女:那难过无声慢了下来
男女:汹涌潮水你听明白
不是浪而是泪海
男:转身离开分手说不出来女:你有话说不出来
男女:海鸟跟鱼相爱只是一场意外
男女:我们的爱差异一直存在
女:回不来
男:风中尘埃竟累积成伤害女:等待竟累积成伤害
男女:转身离开分手说不出来
男女:蔚蓝的珊瑚海错过瞬间苍白

男:当初彼此不够成熟坦白女:你有我的不够成熟坦白
女:不应该
男女:热情不再笑容勉强不来
男女:爱深埋珊瑚海

男:毁坏的沙雕如何重来
有裂痕的爱怎么重盖
只是一切结束太快
你说你无法释怀
女:贝壳里隐藏什么期待
男:等花儿开
男女:我们也已经无心再猜

女男:脸上海风咸咸的爱
尝不出还有未来
男:转身离开分手说不出来女:你有话说不出来
男女:海鸟跟鱼相爱只是一场意外
男女:我们的爱差异一直存在
女:回不来
男:风中尘埃竟累积成伤害女:等待竟累积成伤害
男女:转身离开分手说不出来
男女:蔚蓝的珊瑚海错过瞬间苍白
男:当初彼此不够成熟坦白女:你有我的不够成熟坦白
女:不应该
男:热情不在笑容勉强不来女:你的笑容勉强不来
男女:爱深埋珊瑚海

蔡依林-倒带

我受够了等待你所谓的安排
说的未来到底多久才来
总是要来不及才知道我可爱
我想依赖而你却都不在
应该开心的地带你给的全是空白
一个人假日发呆找不到人陪我看海
我在幸福的门外却一直都进不来
你累积给的伤害我是真的很难释怀
终于看开爱回不来而你总是太晚明白
最后才把话说开哭着求我留下来
终于看开爱回不来我们面前太多阻碍
你的手却放不开宁愿没出息求我别离开

你总是要我乖慢慢计划将来
我的眼泪却一直掉下来
过去怎么交代你该给的信赖
被你亲手缓缓推入悬崖
从我脸上的苍白看到记忆慢下来
过去甜蜜在倒带只是感觉已经不在
而我对你的期待被你一次次摔坏
已经碎成太多块要怎么拼凑跟重来
终于看开爱回不来而你总是太晚明白
最后才把话说开哭着求我留下来
终于看开爱回不来我们面前太多阻碍
你的手却放不开宁愿没出息求我别离开

English translated lyrics

I’ve had enough waiting for your so-called arrangement
The future that you spoke of, just how long will it take
Always have to wait till it’s too late to realize that I’m lovable
I want to depend on you, but you’re not there

The places that are supposed to be happy
All that you gave was nothing
Staring off into space by myself on holidays
Can’t find someone to accompany me to watch the sea
I’m standing outside the door of happiness
But haven’t been able to enter inside
The pain that you have cumulatively inflicted
It’s really hard for me to be released from it

Chorus:
I finally realized that love cannot return
And you are always understanding too late
Only in the end do you speak your mind
Crying and begging me to stay
I finally realized that love cannot return
There are too many obstacles in front of us
But your hand cannot let go
You’d rather be shameless, begging me not to leave

Verse 2:
You always want me to be obedient, slowly planning the future
But my tears were constantly streaming down
In the past how have you displayed the trust that you were supposed to give
I’ve been slowly pushed off a cliff directly by you

From the paleness of my face
Can see the memories slowing down
The sweetness of the past is rewinding
But the feelings are already not present
And the hopes that I have placed in you
Have been shattered by you time and again
It’s already broken into too many pieces
How can they be put back together and resumed again
~end~

This mv is sing by the all time singing and dancing queen,Jolin!I not really into her songs,i just like this one most probably. lol i think someone will misunderstood me for my mvs.I really not in love or something.I just find the songs nice and blog it.

这就是爱

2008-06-11T20:21:00.006+08:00

王心凌 - 这就是爱

飘流在爱情海域
你我也曾有过伤心
因为相信让俩颗心贴近了距离
当我靠在你的怀里
所有话题都是多余
眼前的风景都是你给我的美丽
月影遥天都亮了星星睡不着
我在你耳边轻轻唱着你笑了
爱俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白再也离不开
爱轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外我却逃不开oh~~

当我靠在你的怀里
所有话题都是多余
眼前的风景都是你给我的美丽
月影遥天都亮了星星睡不着
我在你耳边轻轻唱着你笑了
爱俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白再也离不开
爱轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外我却逃不开oh~~

开始不懂爱到现在才明白
恋爱中的人都像个小孩
情愿被宠坏每一天都充满期待
这就是爱
爱俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白再也离不开
爱轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外我却逃不开oh~~
~~End~~

不得不爱

2008-06-10T19:01:00.005+08:00

潘玮柏-不得不爱

天天都需要你爱
我的心思由你猜
I love you
我就是要你让我每天都精彩
天天把它挂嘴边
到底什么是真爱
I love you
到底有几分说得比想像更快
是我们感情丰富太慷慨
还是有上天安排
是我们本来就是那一派
还是舍不得太乖
是那一次约定了没有来
让我哭得像小孩
是我们急着证明我存在
还是不爱会发呆
BABY
不得不爱，否则快乐从何而来
不得不爱，不知悲伤从何而来
不得不爱，否则我就失去未来
好象身不由己不能自己很失败
可是每天都过的精彩
天天都需要你爱
我的心思由你猜
I love you
我就是要你让我每天都精彩
天天把它挂嘴边
到底什么是真爱
I love you
到底有几分说得比想像更快
I ask girlfriend how you been
来去了几回我从来没有想过爱情会变得如此无奈
是命运吗难道难过是上天的安排没办法
天天的每天的心思到底由谁来陪我诚心你诚意
但周围扰人的环境始终让我们无法在这里自由相恋
我精彩你发呆两颗心不安的摇摆应该有的未来是否真那么的无法期待
舍不得再伤害 You're my girl my girl my friend
How much I love you so so much baby
看着你的哀愁要我如何怎么承受面对
I'm sorry you're my sweetheart My love My one&only baby
不得不爱，否则快乐从何而来
不得不爱，不知悲伤从何而来
不得不爱，否则我就失去未来
好象身不由己不能自己很失败
可是每天都过的精彩
天天都需要你爱
我的心思由你猜
I love you
我就是要你让我每天都精彩
天天把它挂嘴边
到底什么是真爱
I love you
到底有几分说得比想像更快
会不会有一点无奈
会不会有一点太快
可是你给我的爱
让我养成了依赖
心中充满爱的节拍
天天都需要你爱
我的心思由你猜
I love you
我就是要你让我每天都精彩。
天天把它挂嘴边
到底什么是真爱
I love you
到底有几分说得比想像更快

Yes.Its the all time favourite 不得不爱 for today =P.I just love this song.Even though its a long ago song already,i still listen to it now.

MONOKUROOMU kono boku o terashite KARAFURU ni

marude toshioita CHIIKUDANSU
(as if it's an old cheek to cheek dance)
itsuka no dokoka no eiga de mita mitai
(like the movie I saw somewhere one day)
DANSUFUROA no ENDOROORU

HARUHI THE CUTE

2008-06-08T23:26:00.002+08:00

Sooo... cute don't ya think XP. Hmmm..heard the creation of this anime series 2 is change to a new series adaption,new story rather than continuing series 1, haizz.
WHY arh
WHy ARH?
I was enjoying the completed series 1 already.Hmm wonder how they would change the story.Oh they said its most probably going to come out in 2009 O.O!Thats..long.Oh well time passes faster than the air u breath in.

the evil in the world

2008-06-04T23:43:00.002+08:00

Why is this world so corrupted?
Are we really pretending of what we are not suppose to be?
Must we really pretend?
Why are we pretending?
Why do humans have emotions?
Why do we need emotions?hatred or love?
Why do we behave like this?
We can never escape death so why do we live for since everyone will die in the end?
So whats the meaning for every existence?
Who can tell me,who can answer me?

Today is Lucky☆Star anime 1st anniversary even since its out on 8th April 2007.Its such a cute and funny anime. I strongly recommend you people there to watch it if you are free.It has 23episodes altogether.I really hope theres a season 2 if possible XP.If you read my new year post you should know i rated this anime the funniest and having the cutest character in the year 2007 of all animes i watched.
They have great albums.They also have a lot of character songs.I like their only OP of all.Oh did i not mention they only have a Opening Theme in all 23episodes lol.The Ending theme was most unexpected,its different in every episode.Can you believe it ,23 different ED for only an anime and only 1 OP =.=
They have BMGs too!!Well..i did not have most BMGs.Most was kind of techno so i didn't like it.Their backgroud music is always very unique because its always from otheranimes.One of it was intial D when the cousin felt being challenge by one the car driving pass her and went to race with it without any link even though shes a police -.-.LOL it was damn funny in that episode.

Manga was Fun too but i prefer anime because of those sound effects and wadever.Heres a how their manga looks like when you buy the book. Now i only have book 1. Theres 5 books out now i think,i never buy manga now because i too busy wif school work recently zzzz. If i got the money to buy it,i sure will do.Heres 3 of the pages of the manga ^^ enjoy.(enlarge it to read if you want)
LOL,what it saying is LAZINESS gotto be first before HARDWORKING comes.Sounds like someone i know haha.
Not to forget the cute figurines too ><.I wish i owned this!!!

Spring Season

2008-04-05T13:34:00.002+08:00

Spring Season ☆

Since its spring season now,i decide to blog a character that reminds me of spring.Guess wad its Kuchiki Byakuya from Bleach of course.he's shikai form in which Senbon Zakura really shines. Er, well, glitters anyway. Speaking the short word "chire" (scatter), Captain Kuchiki makes Senbon Zakura's blade disappear. It isn't gone completely, it has just disintegrated into millions of tiny, razor-thin metal petals you can only see when they catch the light and wink, like the quick flutter of falling cherry petals. Captain Kuchiki mentally controls this razor cloud, and can slice somebody to ribbons without them even seeing what hit them.BANKAI: SENBON ZAKURA KAGEYOSHI(Thousand Cherry Trees, Solemn Shadow)Senbon Zakura Kageyoshi is a souped up version of shikai Senbon Zakura. A stately double row of dozens of swords lines up out of nowhere around Captain Kuchiki and then dissolve into the wind, making that much bigger of a razor-petal cloud for him to use. Captain Kuchiki can also cause the petals to reform into ghost-white blades and sling them around mentally.

Lucky☆Star Madness....

2008-03-29T12:34:00.002+08:00

Lucky☆Star Madness....

The Lucky☆Star fever in Saitama just keep getting worser and weirder. Satte City in Saitama Prefecture decided that it wasn’t enough after introducing the Lucky☆Star Sake, so they decided to introduce Lucky☆Star street lamps.

100 of the street lamps in Satte City already have Lucky☆Star design acrylic boards mounted onto the panels.

The city intends to install more of these Lucky☆Star design acrylic boards on 530 of the street lamps, so that the entire town becomes one with Lucky☆Star.

This is crazy.An anime that cause such huge impact on the city but i still ♥Lucky☆Star.Lucky Star Banzaiii....!!!

Lucky☆Star Sake

2008-03-29T12:25:00.007+08:00

Lucky☆Star ~Sake~
With Cherry Blossom viewing starting next week in Japan, what better way than to celebrate the occasion with some Lucky☆Star Sake. Well...if i have a girlfriend,i will love to go Japan with her during spring to see Cherry Blossom together someday.Most probably anime influence me to do that..haha.

A sake shop located within Satte City in Saitama Prefecture is launching a limited edition Lucky☆Star sake starting March 25th.

Sake=A Japanese liquor made from fermented rice

Personally,i think just looks like any plain sake that has a Lucky☆Star label stuck onto the bottle.I still hope they can sell this in singapore too so i can maybe add it as my collection and not drink it ><. lol

Questions of what happens next after the big cliff-hanger is revealed. Kururugi Suzaku joins a new force called ‘Knight of Rounds’ plus a new Zero appears.

# Anime: The Tower of Druaga: the Aegis of Uruk
# Release Date: 2008-04-??
# Info: It is said that every few years, there is what’s known as the “Summer of Anu.” During that summer, thanks to the divine protection of the sky-god Anu, all of the demons in the tower lose their power. The country of Uruk has begun an invasion of the tower in order to suppress the demons. They’ve built up positions inside the tower, with their sights set on getting to the upper levels. The Uruk army knows that this is the third Summer of Anu-a perfect time to launch a mission to suppress the monster Druaga once and for all. The army soldiers aren’t the only ones in the tower, though. An enitre city called Meskia has formed inside the tower’s first floor. It plays host not just to soldiers, but also to adventurers who have heard rumors about a legendary treasure called the Blue Crystal Rod, which is said to rest at the very top of the tower. With all these different groups in the mix, each with its own agenda, one can only guess how things will play out during this unusual summer.

# Anime: Special A
# Release Date: 2008-04-??
# Info: Hikari Hanazono has always been second to Kei Takishima. When they were six years old, their pro-wrestling loving fathers introduced them to each other. Assuming that she was the best in wrestling, young Hikari challenged Kei to a wrestling match only to be thoroughly defeated by him. Ever since that fateful incident, Hikari swore to beat Kei in school grades, a sporting event - anything. To do this, she has enrolled in the same school as Kei since elementary. Now she attends Hakusenkan, an ultra elite school, that costs her carpenter father a lot of money. Hikari and Kei are the top two students in the school, with Kei holding firmly to that number one position. While Hikari considers Kei to be a rival and important friend, she is completely unaware that Kei loves her. The story primarily focuses on Hikari and her constant attempts to defeat her one and only rival, Kei, and how she finds love in their rivalry.Not going to watch this looks boring to me.

BEST OF 2007 ANIMES

2008-01-01T18:30:00.000+08:00

2007 ANIMES COMPLETE

MY OWN REFLECTION

BEST COMEDY:LUCKY STAR

Portrays the lives of several school girls attending a Japanese high school with a very loose humor tone. The main heroine is Konata Izumi, an athletic and intelligent girl who, despite these attributes, is not in a sports club, and her grades remain low. Her laziness at school is due to her love for anime and video games, and she is not interested in much else.This Anime is damn LOLX...The Daily life of an otaku girl Konata make me interested in this show...

BEST SWORD STYLEZ:CLAYMORE

In a world rife with deadly creatures called "yoma", a young silver eyed woman, Clare, works on behalf of an organisation that trains female yoma halfbreeds into warriors with the ability to destroy these creatures. Considered a rogue for picking up a stray child & almost losing herself to her yoma side by "Awakening", she is constantly assigned rather dangerous missions...This is a very intense yet cool anime.Females Warrior using CLaymore to Slay Yoma,Awaken Beings.. wif their extraordinary speed and power.

BEST HERO:HEROIC AGE

Answering the call of the “Gold Race”, all the sentient races launch into space. The human race is the last to launch, and are thus known as the “Iron Race”. Much time has passed since then, and humanity is threatened...Its a anime of 4 different kinds.
AGE a child raised by golden race..a hero within him also known as bellcross are destined to save the humanity...What i like about this anime is also about the fightings and effects...

Best Mahou:Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha STRIKERS

Set 10 years after the events in Lyrical Nanoha A's, now three Rank S mages, Nanoha, Fate and Hayate are working for the Time-Space Administration Bureau...Uncontrolled Lost Logia will get in the way of Riot Force 6 and is up to Nanoha, Fate and Hayate to deal with them while training their new trainees and helping with other tasks that arise along the way...Its the best mahou anime i seen so far this year.Magic is the source..Summon Magic,Shooting Magic,Breaking Magic,Scan Magic or even Healing Magic.Thats what i like about this!

BEST STYLEZ:ZOMBIE LOAN

Michiru happens to see the rings of the dead on their necks. Akatsuki Chika, and Tachibana Shito notice that Michiru has the "eyes of Death," a fact which she hid from others until now, and they unveil themselves to be undead.
They work as bounty hunters, hunting evil zombies to repay what they borrowed to revive themselves.What i can say about this anime is Series is short and sweet.Lots of doubt yet to be clear , i sure want series 2 to come out fast..

BEST DRAGGING ANIME:Tales of Symphonia

This Anime is release from 08-06-2007 to 21-12-2007..its has only 4 episodes for now. Plot: On the perishing world, a Choosen one is send on a journey to restore that world's mana by awakening the Spirits and becoming an angel. Colette Brunel, the Choosen of Sylvarant, sets out on her journey accompanied by her best friends Lloyd Irving and Genis Sage.Heard there is 4 more episodes but how long will it take?
I wonder....

2007 Character Introduce

Cutest:Konata Izumi from Lucky Star

* Age: 17-18
* Birthday: May 28
* Height: 142 cm (4'8")
* Handedness: Ambidextrous
* Zodiac Sign: Gemini
* Residence: Saitama Prefecture
* Blood type: A

* Hair Color: Blue
* Eye Color: Green
* Online Name: Konakona
She is an eccentric but friendly and outgoing girl, with a mischeivous but good-natured sense of humor. She can be smart, but she hates studying, thus her grades are a bit uneasy. However, she is an expert in pulling an "all-nighter". In contrast to her studying habits, she loves video games, to the extent that she can compete against Kagami Hiiragi on trivia games. In addition, she loves anime, which is also due to her father, Sōjirō Izumi's influence, along with the games.Her physique is smaller than average when compared to her peers, which she claims hasn't changed, since she was in the sixth grade. She is ambidextrous, in contrast to the mostly left-handed main cast. She has long, blue hair which comes down to her calves with a large ahoge, sleepy eyes and a beauty mark under her left eye, just like her father. Her mother, Kanata Izumi, died when she was an infant, and she has lived alone with her father since. In her third year of high school, however, her cousin, Yutaka Kobayakawa, came to live at her house, giving a total of three people in the Izumi residence.

Most Qualified Ruler:Dhianeila Y Laitsa Altoria Ol Yunos from Heroic Age

The young princess of the Iron Tribe and the heroine of the story who falls in love with the main character, Age. By using information passed down by the royal family, she takes it upon herself to search for the one she considers their savior. Along with her psychic and telepathic powers, she has the power to create spiritual projections, though not as powerful as those of the Silver Tribe. Her telepathic powers also seem to be so powerful that she can automatically read the minds of those around her. It also is revealed that Dhianeila cannot handle the spiritual waves of an impure man, so men have to be at least 10 meters away from her, or else she may lose consciousness and collapse.[3][4] The only man to have ever been able to approach her, and make her not lose herself is Age, and in recent episodes Ioraus. After she ended the war between the Iron-tribe and Silver/Bronze-tribe, she went to the home planet of Age and stayed there till they finished fixing the planet. Four years later, she reunited with Age and it is unknown if they stayed in their Universe or went to the Universe where the Golden and the Silver tribe is waiting for them.

Coolest or Coldest:Shito Tachibana from Zombie Loan

Due to his looks and attitude, he is seen as an idol by the female students, though he seems to not care. He is generally a much more approachable person than Chika, but certain situations and people cause him to act cold and indifferent; when Michiru first told him that she had no real will to live, he told her how disgusted that made him feel, going on to say that he believes she does not deserve the right to live.

Tales of Symphonia OVA 03

Well just glad that this can continued...Tales of Symphonia OVA 03 .Lloyd has finally noticed that Collete is changing with each seal they break. She has grown angel wings, she has lost all sense of touch, and at the end she also loses her voice.After the Desians destroy a helpless village, Sheena joins our group of adventurers. There is reluctance and distrust on both sides......

Timcampy Necklace

2007-10-26T19:01:00.000+08:00

Timcampy Necklace!!This necklace is a must-have! However, it is going at a good price of 9,450 yen which is almost close to a figurine. Well, if you haven’t been contributing to the anime industry, now is a good time to do so!The necklace is actually pure silver plated with gold. Kinda makes me wonder why they can’t have it silver or gold, but plated gold on silver? eh? What happened to chemistry? Oh forgive me.. Chemistry is making me mad…but hey how i am i gonna get this in Japan?
