Ninja Akasaka

~~~

YAY! Today was the first snow here, I am so happy The weather people said we’d only get 1-2 inches of snow, but now I’d say it’s well on it’s way to half a foot (maybe even a foot–I’m not good at glance-measuring things)! I am so excited! I just love the snow…the sledding, the skiing….the taste xD Yes, I like eating it…but Arisu says that it’s acid snow, probably just to freak me out….I hope. Well, anyway, onto the actual article ^–^

Ninja Akasaka Restaurant

Probably one of the most unique-if not the most-restaurants I have ever heard of. Is it like the Japanese equivalent of the Rainforest Cafe (a popular rainforest-themed restaurant)? The whole place inside is ‘ninja’ themed xD Meaning, black, black, and more black. To get to your table you follow a ninja-dressed waiter/waitress who leades you through a series of dark halls and crevices until you reach your equally as mysterious table.

You eat pretty much typically, except that you are eating off SHRUIKEN m(ﾟДﾟ)m ~!!!!

It certainly is a novel place, and they also hold events and gatherings such as birthdays and weddings. Yes, you too can have a Ninja wedding.

Well, this one is going to have to be  short post!! Gomen!

Sushi Pack — A Cartoon About Sushi

Okay, one of the newest kid’s shows on television is a little show called SUSHI PACK. @__@

I saw a commercial for it and decided to do a little research…

The story revolves around a ’super hero’ group called sushi pack. They consist of…take a guess…..no, really….. SUSHI.  Yes, a children’s show about talking, meditating, fighting sushi. The group includes a little guy named Wasabi (keep in mind, all these characters are made of what their names are), who is made of wasabi mustard; Kani, who is made of crab sushi with crab pinching pigtails; Ikura, who is made of salmon egg sushi and shoots gooey fish eggs at his foes @_@; Maguro, who is made of tuna sushi and can focus her ‘inner tuna’ and has strange physic powers; and Tako, who is made of octopus sushi and can shoot colorful ink.

Weird? Yes. Edible? Maybe. Cute? HECK YES!!

I want to squeee the lights out of those little guys xD Especially Wasabi, he’s just plain cute n tiny! (The actual size of these characters is only slightly larger than real sushi :3)

The problem is, that whenever I see them I want to eat them.

Okay, that’s kind of a big problem.

——

The Sushi Pack fight their enemies, the  Legion of the Low Tide, which consists of the Titanium chef, a bad sushi chef; Fugu, a bouncer-looking blowfish; Mochi Mochiato, a scoop of rice-topped ice cream; Toro, a huge sumo tuna roll; Unagi, a ‘mutated’  electric eel; and Uni, a maniacal sea-urchin with evil tendencies.

. …. Not so appetizing (except maybe Mochi-san ^–^<3)

 

Well, I would suggest this ….unique….. show if you are in the mood for the something cute and easy to understand ^^

Lucky Star ~ Episode 17!

Well, well!!!

As every Lucky Star episode does, this one got me to thinking >:3

Do sisters absorb traits from each other?

That’s a hard one, but I’d have to say YES. At least for me >w< I’m a middle sister of three xO And I think I did get a bit from both Arisu and Miyuki (my sister, not the Lucky Star character xD) …. Which could be either bad or good @__@ *cough cough* Yet I am the only one that has to wear glasses… Well, Miyuki has contacts, ….but……

Isn’t it strange how in anime the trend is growing to make younger sisters actually look older than their older sisters!? I can’t figure out why… is it an otaku turn-on or something @__@ who knows…?

Future Plans

I never really thought about it…but I guess I want to be a surgeon!!! Actually, wait…I have thought about it, but it’s kinda early for me D:

I think Kagami would make a good lawyer, though! She just has that look about her.. And Tsukasa would be a great chef!!! I can picture her having her own cooking show, something like, “Moe Moe Time With Tsukasa: Happy Cooking Fun!” xD But that’s why I love her!

This also kind of reminds me of what I am going through now @__@ Picking my top three choices for high school…when Miyuki applied for high school, she visited 5 different schools! I only visited three TT–TT I feel somewhat unprepared……

Speaks for itself….

Reading Enriches the Soul…except light novels…

I like reading good books, but the more ’socially refined’ I get, well, it just doesn’t do that much to me. But the more I watch anime, the more my soul is enriched. Lets say…books are like potato chips. They are tasty at the moment, but you don’t really remember them when you are done (well, some), but anime, anime is like a great big tasty vegetable soup with thick warm broth and salty crackers in the side with a big glass of milk ಠ_ಠ It just sticks to ya.

Leftovers

Man, I’ve seen some nasty things (like when Arisu tried to feed me oatmeal with pepper and salt) but not quite as bad as wasabi octopus gone seriously, horribly wrong. Few things in the world compare to that mushy, moldy, mess…

(octopus blurred out for the physical and mental safety of the audience)

Family time

In this episode, we really get to know the Hiiragi family ^^ Which consists of the twins Kagami and Tsukasa, the two older sisters Inori and Matsuri and a mother and father

How cute ^–^ They really do make a good family @__@

You are what you choose as a career (as well as eat ^^)

Okay…this guy takes that to the next level…

MEITO ANIZAWA!! This dude is crazy…but that’s why we love him, ne?!

Uhh…er….Lucky Channel has gotten an EXTREMEMEN#@ MAKEOVER@:L<
!!! ~ ヾ(*￣▽￣)ノ

Ending…

Another song by the marvelous Minoru Shiraishi-saaaaannnnnn~! BON BON O-ENDAN! Yes…he was signing ‘Motteke! Sailorfuku!” I’ve been listening to this song non-stop on my Minoru Shiraishi no Otoko Lullabye CD xD The very beginning spoken part of the song translates to, “Hello ladies! Are you unsatisfied with your husbands?”!?! What the…!/ Well, anyways…

New Layout~!

Weeell…

I know, I know! I change the entire layout of the site every month or so xD I just can’t stay the same for long can I? I really like this one, though! The only problem is that I had quite a bit of difficulty putting the custom banner up top ^^ After some messing around though, I managed to get it on though (as some of you may or may not see) there is now a big black bar right through the image @_@. Oh well, I guess it gives it a divided effect which is kinda nice…kinda

m(ﾟДﾟ)m MUH WOOBIE

Actually this ol’ kitty is my grandparents ^–^ She hates little kids so watch out little ones >8D

Hehehe…just kidding….

ヾ(*￣▽￣)ノ

Self Contemplative?! …=__=#

Okay….for some reason…I’m thinking why I even called this blog 100 yen in the first place?! LOL not like I’m gonna change the name or anything but ^–^;;

Maybe its because 50 Yen would sound too much like a rapper..? 1,000 yen is just too long-and plus when it reaches 1,000 its turns from a note to a coin O_O poof<z3 And Japan is thinking about raising the cigarette pack price to 1,000 yen (or have they already? I have to check that out >w<).  1 yen on the ground just sounds weird as well as 5 yen on the ground…people would much rather find a 100 yen coin on the ground than a 1 yen coin..right, right?>!? The 100 yen coin also has cherry blossoms on it (I hate cherries, but I love the nation cherry blossom festival~:3)!  And how could you not like currency whose international symbol ¥ resembles two chopsticks resting on a cute little holder >O–^< (At least to me……)

….

ALL THESE RESONS MAKE THE 100 YEN COIN THE BEST JAPANESE CURRENCY!!!!!! >:OOOOOOOO

…Okay that makes absolutely no sense =__= The most valuable would obviously be the best… greedy…..

I think I’m delirious…I’ve been feeling dizzy all day @_@ =_=

WORLD DOMINATION

Drawings? xD

I think I may start posting some of my drawings on here @_@ Some of them are just weird and a lot of them are fan-drawings and half/fan-drawings but I hope everyone enjoys them! Note: My scanner has been broken for the past 6 months (it’s driving me crazy-but I always forget that we actually need a new one until I need one), so all the pictures on here are going to be taken by a camera ^–^ So sorry if the quality isn’t too good! I’ll try my best to make them better! I’ll try my best to fix them up on the computer!

Okies!! To start, we’ll begin with my old picture of Suigintou

This one I was actually happy with when I was done, but while I was drawing it I was kinda scared about how it would come out xD It started out as just a random sketch of her head but evolved into a full-body shot o__o This was one of my first full-pen drawings! I draw this about three months ago in August… (?) Anyways! Enjoy!!

Motteke! Sailorfuku Re-mix Album

Ugghh… sorry everyone if the mood of this review isn’t exactly the ‘cheery’ mood that you expect D: It was one of those days when you are really happy or in a good mood then something horrible changes you in a flash @__@ I was expecting a night of relaxing and watching anime-a blessed relief from the pile of work I’ve had for the past days- when I find out people are coming to our house =__= Weird strangers that my mom knows. That kind of stuff just disrupts my night! I obviously can’t be lounging around in front of the TV in my pajamas when they stroll through the house, and then my mom doesn’t like all the electronics out, so she hides them (Portable things like laptops and mp3 players…)!!! Then they are usually extremely late wasting over half my night waiting for the stupid people to come already! I hate them! I wish they’d just be courteous for once and come when I’m at school like some do. *sigh* Anyway, hearing about my personal life is probably extremely pointless, so onto the review!!!

Overall Album Rating: \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o ((3 1/2 of 5))

1. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Choshi Koite Gyokusai Mix] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ ((2 of 5))
This song is basically…’Choshi Koite Gyokusai’. Literally. It repeats over and over and over and over… I usually don’t mind repetition in a song, it’s just that I was expecting a little more from a song from this album, especially after listening to the other ones. It sounds seriously ‘alien-y’ and I can barely make out a ‘Motteke! Sailorfuku’ beat at all. It’s not a particularly bad remix, it just doesn’t live up to the others on this album. It does have a good background beat, though

2. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Metabo Taisaku Mix] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ ((4 of 5))
I personally like this one a lot! It really keeps a ‘Motteke!’ beat while mixing in some exotic sounding beats in the beginning, evolving into a video-game-Super-Mario-ish beat. It’s kinda like a weird, addicting tropical drink stand/ultimate gaming station on the go. It will not appeal to everyone, of course, but I think the majority will appreciate the catchy tune and the fact that it’s not totally random-meaning you can actually dance to it. Definitely one of the better ones on the album. It might just be too fast for some people, but if you don’t like fast remixes, why are you buying this CD?!

3. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Nako no Hito on the floor mix] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/\(^o ((4 1/2 of 5))
My personal favorite on this album! It starts out slightly repetitive and weird, but picks up to an awesome beat by 30 seconds. It’s one of those songs that sounds better the louder you play it with more bass. Not that it is bad with just headphones or earphones, it’s great with those, too if you are looking to put it on your iPod or something. There is a clear ‘Motteke!’ melody like in the last song, and it is almost as if you took the background music to the original song and edited it a heck of a lot-but to a good effect. It is pleasant to listen to for me especially because of the drastic rises and falls in the beat. The refrain is backed up by some heavy and awesome effects, while the other parts are light and airy (while stull club-y). The background music to this song is neither sweet nor hardcore, so it kind of hits the funny bone of this album.

4. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [-Undakada~Kyo no Yabo-] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ ((3 of 5))
I absolutely love how this song starts out! Seriously Konata-gone-robot. This one definitely strays from the original song a lot more than the past two, but it still manages to maintain a consistent beat. The background for a lot of the song is some heavy drum sounds, so if repeating drums annoys you, this one’s probably not for you. It is also one of the more hardcore songs of the album, and long one’s at that at 6 minutes 16 seconds. This song could really fit in well with a futuristic sci-fi movie!

5. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Glucosa Mix] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ ((2 of 5))
O..okay, then. ^–^;; I really don’t get this one…at all. But you have to appreciate it because of the unique and clever background music, that isn’t unsimilar to an early 20th century mystery movie @__@ I don’t have much to say about this one except that it involves a lot of Miyuki and Tsukasa flipping out >w< I see really no ‘Motteke!’ in it all, period. My best guess would be that it features that talking parts of the girls in the middle of the original song, except solo so you can clearly make out what each is saying.

6. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Matsuri Mix!] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ ((3 of 5))
This one is just plain fun! It is really a matsuri mix!! It includes the vocals of Shiraishi Minoru and is like the original song cranked up to a full-blown party mix. As Alice would say, this remix is ‘oddly addicting’! It makes me feel as if I have to end each sentence in an exclamation point! You can just picture all the characters getting together at some karaoke joint and they all take over the microphone at once, trying to ousting each other xD. This song certainly makes one want to dance!

7. Motteke! Sailor Fuku [Seishun orz Mix] \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o^)/ \(^o ((3 1/2 of 5))
Last one on the album, this one is extremely lively! It has just the kind of effects and tune you would hear from some super-popular club in the city. This one somewhat keeps to the original tune a bit later on in the song, though not much (not that that is a bad thing). This remix also has some very interesting and well-mixed rises and falls as well as generic club mix gone Lucky Star unique!

Highschool Entrance Exams – C IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT ANSWER!?~>:!?

Okies…

The entrance exams are coming up @__@! And I’m kinda of flippin out on the inside kind of.

We just had the practice tests at school and I was..er…how shall I say it? Really bad. Really bad at the math part at least (Language is really absolutely no problem for me-I can pass without studying at all). Well, not that bad, it was probably because I was rushing to do 200+ problems within an hour and a half, long problems too. I do have a serious weakness in math @__@ I envy those math whizzes… <33 My friend Alice is a bit of a math maniac so I get her to help me all the time =__= ehehe…I’m pretty pathetic…

There is a lot of competition to get into the best schools and at each secondary school I visit I have to do a slightly nerve-wracking interview, write a spontaneous essay, and fill out countless forms and papers @_@ It’s really exhausting. Alice doesn’t seem worried, and neither does Anjii, so I’m thinking I shouldn’t be worried either but…

The school I really want to go to has pretty nice uniforms (heheh xD I’m mainly looking at the uniforms for a school…is that bad?) which look basically like this (minus the bow in front, plus bow in the back)

 

I also like that school because of it’s modern and unique teaching style! Each student is required to purchase a specific laptop that you use to receive e-mails from your teachers and friends, take notes, and just plain have fun with xD

 

In my school now we aren’t allowed to have cell phones inside D:

 

 

It’s going to be a relief in high school when we can use them a lot! Now I can only use mine to call my friends and stuff outside of school (speaking of which I left the charger at my relatives house)

 

I’ma gonna flip out when I can message meh friends in school :3

 

 

Well, wish me luck! I’m taking the freakin’ 5-hour exam later on next month Dx

If anyone has any good study tips or tricks, please share and leave a comment ^^ Thank you!!

Moteke! Serafuku MINORU SHIRAISHI STYLE @__@ :3
