After Ishida Akira...now it's Toyoguchi Megumi.

Toyoguchi Megumi: Takeba Yukari
Roles outside P3: Winry Rockbell (Fullmetal Alchemist), Miranda Lotto (D.Gray-man) and Charlotte Baskerville aka Lotti (Pandora Hearts)

Comments: As the main character's best friend and might-be love interest, I like how the way Yukari was portrayed. Whether she is being nice or giving the cold shoulder, her voice fits perfectly for Yukari's (tsundere) character.

Crossover lulz
FMA: She's as nice and emotional as Winry, definitely. I still cannot forget that it was because she couldn't bring herself to uh, shoot herself with the Evoker, Minato had to use it and awakens Orpheus in the process >D
DGM: With above example, she's kind of as useless as Miranda. But Yukari is definitely determined to help her comrades, and even coming to Minato's defence when Junpei was like blaming him for everything that happened.
PH: Will be mentioned after Toriumi Kosuke...

Oh, and I really just wanted to comment on the announcement of the P3P aka Persona 3 Portable game which is due for release on 1st November for the PSP. It's basically just like the original P3 game, but improvements will be made, and you get to choose between playing Minato and a female MC.

Which makes me want a PSP. Or any other game console since I don't have any. D:

The female protagonist looks a bit too cheeful for P3, but then and again, maybe Minato's too emo. Or just because she's wearing a red-ish uniform like Aigis. Fem!Orpheus is just amusing. But Male!Elizabeth looks awesome.

I'm excited for the modifications to fem!MC's S-links though. That means that she can date Akihiko and uh...StupeiJunpei. Although others were like 'I WANNA BE LESBIAN WITH MITSURU' and stuff :/

Actually, the main question here is: Will we get a loli!Pharos and a fem!Ryouji? Because I totally want that to happen. It'll be too weird if Pharos and Ryouji were still male when MC's female. Also, I approve of a slightly perverted Death girl in the cast. Which also means that there will be dude-hunting instead of babe-hunting in the beach arc.

LOL. I heard that there won't be so many changes. But I do really want a loli Pharos and a female Ryouji. 8D

*goes back and stalk notalk for Retrace XXXX*

I just started reading Kobato and I think that it's quite good.

Really, it took me quite a lot of courage to read it. Since it's you know, by CLAMP. And Tsubasa made me lose a lot of faith in CLAMP due to its plot of fail, crack and crossovers of way too many series.

It has been a month since I wanted to read it, and I decided to finally start since everyone's talking about it. Oh, and I don't regret it since the plot is rather intriuging and hilarious.

Kobato's really like Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura in her personality and Ioryogi is as funny as Kero. I still spy some crossovers, especially from Chobits, but after Tsubasa, I won't complain at all.

Now my most favourite character is Fujimoto. If you cut off his tied hair and take off his glasses, he'd look totally like Syaoran. Which makes me really wonder whether Fujimoto x Kobato would become canon. But it's a nice speculation + I support this pairing too since I love Syaoran x Sakura too :D

And uh, I think it's a really good break from shounen manga especially after I finished the Persona 3 playthough I was reading previously. The ending there was so sad. In the end, both of my favourite characters are like goners. T_T

*off to do homework*

( Dolls in lacey dresses for the win. Especially when the lace is black >D )

They look so much better than the other Barbie dolls on display. Just that the eyes do look very creepy. :O

My favourite one was the last one since I'm such a sucker for outfits which look Gothic Lolita. At least, the hat, that is.

Second lovebar here, with the first one of Ono Daisuke before this. Somehow I feel that the Ono D. one looked better.

List of characters featured here:
Arisato Minato aka Main Character of Persona 3 (also Mochizuki Ryouji and Pharos)
Kai Nanami from Sukisyo
Zexion from Kingdom Hearts
Xerxes Break from Pandora Hearts
Hiwatari Satoshi from D.N.Angel
Amakawa Tsukasa from Shugo Chara
The last one's a photo of him

Gaara's not here because I don't read / watch Naruto. Nah, Ishida Akira is too awesome and has too many awesome roles, so yeah.

<a href="http://innoc3nt-sorrow.livejournal.com/12956.html" _fcksavedurl="http://innoc3nt-sorrow.livejournal.com/16741.html"><img border="0" alt="" src="http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn287/innocent_sorrow_/ishiakicopy.jpg" _fcksavedurl="http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn287/innocent_sorrow_/ishiakicopy.jpg" />
I see three very emo but awesome blue haired guys. Is that a coincidence?

x-posted to seiyuu, ishida_akira, dnangelfans and pandorahearts too.

comment if taking~

Persona 3 is epic win. And so are the seiyus. That's why I'm posting about this now.

Before even mentioning the whole fucking with your head thing (literally and figuratively), have a good look at the cast. Spoilers ahead too, in case I forget...

Lets start with Ishida Akira :D

Ishida Akira: Main Character aka Arisato Minato, Pharos and Mochizuki Ryouji
Roles outside P3: Zexion (Kingdom Hearts), Hiwatari Satoshi (DNAngel), Xerxes Break (Pandora Hearts), Kai Nanami (Sukisyo), Amakawa Tsukasa (Shugo Chara) and uh, Tom Riddle in the Japanese dub of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Comments:
Minato has no voice in the game at all because he's the silent protagonist. And at most it's just 'uh' and 'eh' with short phrases such as '大丈夫' in the drama CDs. Especially in She goes for a walk when more attention is given to Aigis. Commu Break has more of Minato's voice, only because he's having girl troubles with Fuuka, Yukari, Mitsuru and Aigis while being in deep trouble. >D But I still like Minato's voice even though he barely speaks.
As for Ryouji, he really sounds like the flirty idiot he is. It's just ironic that he's Death, really.
Pharos is just plain creepy. :/

Crossover lulz:
KH: I can see Zexion shooting himself too since he's as emo as Minato.
DNA: For Satoshi, it's the emo blue haired boy thing again. But what's more is that Krad is kind of like Ryouji. And uh, the Death thing suits him too. Then Ryouji is a part of Minato, like how Krad is a part of Satoshi. Plus Krad will look good with Ryouji's scarf :)
PH: I shall comment after Toriumi Kosuke...
HP: With part of Death sealed within Minato, it's just like how part of Voldemort's soul was sealed in Harry. Also, both Harry and Minato are the 'messiah' kind of character... The similarities are just too plain creepy.

...will be continued with Toyoguchi Megumi aka Yukari next...

Rant:
Damnit. I love the Ryouji x Minato pairing because it's selfcest is some way. Ryouji is flirty (which came from Minato's humanity?! I mean, how does Death do this?) and Minato is the quiet guy which make them complement each other well.
But yet it's so tragic at the same time because both Ryouji and Minato don't end up well at the end. If only Ryouji wasn't Death, they'd be BFFs like totally. Oh well, life is never going to be good if you're Death. Or Death's reincarnate for this matter.

*goes off to read Minato's LJ a rather interesting playthrough of Persona 3 because I don't have the game*

Even though Chemistry was really screwed up.

Anyway, there's a comic + toy con at Suntec City tomorrow which is actually the first con that I'm going to.

So it's obvious that I'm excited. I can forsee lots of badges + keychains :D

List of fandom stuff + characters I will most likely buy in no particular order:
1. Kuroshitsuji (Sebastian, Grell and Undertaker)
2. Hetalia (Roderich aka Austria, Gilbert aka Prussia and uh, Feliciano aka N. Italy)
3. Pandora Hearts (Jack, Oz, Gilbert and Alice)
4. D.Gray-man (Allen and Lavi)
5. Kingdom Hearts (Riku and Roxas)
6. Persona 3 (Ryouji and Minato)
7. Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles (Fai and Mokona)
8 Fullmetal Alchemist (Edward and Envy)

Then and again, my budget's only $20. Oh well.

*goes off to watch PH 20 and read FMA 98*

...which is hiatus.

And why am I reminded of Sugisaki Yukiru and DNAngel? Damn it.

Yeah, I'm taking a one-week hiatus because of common tests until next Friday.

Can't afford any more of my grades to drop, so yeah.

Meanwhile, have a good time~

EDIT: Just read the wiki article on Lotti's seiyu, Toyoguchi Megumi. I can't believe that she also voiced Winry Rockbell (Fullmetal Alchemist) and Miranda Lotto (D.Gray-man) too. Winry and Miranda are ranked among my most fave chars in FMA and DGM, but not Lotti in my fave chars list for PH.

I mean, one's a really nice although emotional automail mechanic for Edward Elric + best / girl friend of him, another's an Exorcist who keeps thinking that she's useless but is determined to help her comrades and has the power to manipulate time. And Lotti? She's a psychotic <s>bitch</s>girl with pink hair who is trying to find Glen Baskerville and acts under his orders.

Oh, just to make my point clear, I don't really like Lotti. I mean, Present!Lotti. I like Past!Lotti better (who pulls Jack's hair >D), but I don't like Present!Lotti because she just ticks me off. Just like how I don't like Past!Alice, but I like Present!Alice.

Don't ask me why. I do like Zwei, but find Lotti irritating. I think it's just because I have something against pink-haired girls. Including Lulu of Monochrome Factor, Euphemia from Code Geass and Anise from Barajou no Kiss. I'm sorry if anyone's offended... :/

Rawr. I can't believe that the Writer's Block remembered JK's bday but forgot that it was Harry Potter's bday. I mean, Harry's bday is damn crucial to every HP book like how Halloween is.

Anyway, I liked Chamber of Secrets best. There's a suspence, mystery and tension for me to keep on flipping the pages. Then there's also more on Voldemort, his connection to Harry. Oh, and the first Hocrux being destroyed too.

I also liked the involvement of  'Heir of Slytherin' thing which gave a even sinister feeling to the book. Harry had to face the rumours being spread about him while finding out who is the culprit, which is quite a lot for him. Lets not forget Ginny who was totally manipulated by Tom Riddle...

Also watched the sixth movie already. Personally I think it's good. As compared to the fifth movie, this was wonderful. The romance parts were win and the part when Hermione was whacking Harry's head when she was like: You're the Chosen One, aren't you? made me LOL so much. Harry just had to reply: Uh, yeah. The main highlight was Malfoy, who was looking so emo throughout because he was coerced to be a Death Eater.

But I didn't like the part on Dumbledore's death. It was done too weirdly, and I only cried because Malfoy was looking so pained as he couldn't bring himself to kill Dumbledore...

Hopefully, the DH movie won't be a flop, but I doubt it. The book already had a crack plot, and I'm not very positive for the movie. Shall wait and see though.

No HP icon, so I'm using Roderich aka Austria. After all, he has dark-coloured hair, and wears glasses. He does look Harry Potter-ish when I look at the icon now though...

Because he has an awesome voice, he voices so many awesome characters plus his songs are full of win , I present my first lovebar ever. And it's of Ono Daisuke plus his anime roles :D
 
In case you don't know all the characters featured, here's the list of characters featured in this lovebar:
Koizumi Itsuki from Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
Nikaidou Akira from Monochrome Factor
Sebastian Michaelis from Kuroshitsuji
Jack Vessalius from Pandora Hearts
Himself from Lucky Star
The last one is a photo of him.

*gotta go for Bio lesson now*

Thanks to the gfantasy_magcommunity, I got to know of another manga by the wonderful Toboso Yana aka the author of Kuroshitsuji, which is called Rustblaster. Too bad it only had only 1 volume / 6 chapters (like a certain Sugisaki Yukiru manga *cough* Rizelmine *cough*)

http://www.onemanga.com/Rust_Blaster/

It's like a shounen version of Vampire Knight, actually. And it's like Soul Eater too. The plot is also on vampires and humans trying to coexist with evil ones trying to take over. In the 1000 Years Academy, the main character, a very unvampire-ish vampire, Aldred meets a human transfer student Kei by chance. But what they do not know is that the fate on the world now depends on the two of them...

You see, every vampire has a family weapon except for Aldred. When an evil vampire attacks the Gate that the school is protecting, Aldred tries to defend himself and everyone else to no avail. Nearing the brink of death, his only chance to survive was to suck Kei's blood. (which is prohibited since vampires are not allowed to suck human blood)

Aldred then gains a weapon - the Holy Spear - and manages to pwn that evil vampire. He thinks that he has finally got his family weapon, except that the Holy Spear reverts back into Kei's prone form. So begins the mission of Aldred and Kei to protect the world...

Actually. I was more attracted to manga because Kei really looked like Allen Walker from D.Gray-man. Especially his outfit resembles Allen's third uniform. But Rustblaster was serialised in 2006, so maybe Hoshino-sensei copied Toboso-sensei? :O

Idk. Then since Aldred's a vampire, he'd be Krory. LOL.

*sigh* DGM's still on hiatus. I wish it was back. And that Rustblaster didn't have such a cliffhanger ending or so little chapters.

Then and again, you can't have everything in the world. Like for example, there's still school tomorrow despite how I am reluctant for it.

Til the next post~~

As the title says, happy belated birthday to AmeriCanada because I couldn't bear to ignore him and his birthday. Even though the icon here is of America. The Hetalia community here's alrd full of Canada Day posts, and I'm betting there will be more during the 4th of July. Also I bet there would be more England x America stuff than Canada x America then too.

LOL. Yeah, I recently went into the Hetalia fandom because everyone was talking about it and it spreads like a virus. In a good way though. History never looked this good. And anime has never been so funny and educational at the same time. Like in episode 23, I learnt about Liechtenstein (which is a handful to type and a mouthful to say) which I never heard of before. And I bet Germany was totally thinking otherwise about Italy's phone call. He was prolly suspecting rape.

Liechtenstein reminds me of Echo from Pandora Hearts and she can totally be compared to Belarus too. Switzerland better watch his back before Liechtenstein does something. >D

On the seiyus, it's quite interesting to see Namikawa Daisuke aka N./S. Italy to have also done Fai from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles(both quite happy-go-lucky) , Paku Romi aka Switzerland is also Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist (both blonde), Onosaka Masaya aka France is Cerebus from Cardcaptor Sakura (ROFLMAO) and Takahashi Hiroki aka Japan is also Jounichi Katsuya from Yugioh (quite contrasting).

Tomorrow's the start of term 3. I really don't know whether I should be happy, but one thing's true: I'm bored of the holidays. So I suppose I'm looking forward for tomorrow, and I miss everyone...

On DNAngel, still no chapter, but there are spazztastic pics of Daisuke and Dark in the Asuka. Sugisaki-sensei is being mean to her fans as usual. D<

snagged from xxbakuraxx

Reply to this meme by typing "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you.

DNAngel: The first shoujo manga I read since Cardcaptor Sakura and there was a gap of 4 years, mind you. I loved it due to my fetish for wings due to the Maximum Ride novels and also due to the romance too. And the fact that there are two winged bishounen who look damn good in anything especially when crossdressing. On that, I'm currently drawing Dark and Krad as Alice and Will of the Abyss from Pandora Hearts because the 'black and white theme' fits. Currently I'm still frustrated with Sugisaki-sensei's hiatus. I hope she comes back before other shoujo series that I'm reading (examples are Monochrome Factor and Shugo Chara) finish.

Krad: The most misunderstood character of DNAngel. Mostly because of the stupid anime which ruined him. Most people don't like him because he fights with Dark and tortures Satoshi. But remember that people are born good, so there must be a reason Krad became evil. To sum it in one sentence, he needs more love. Look at Dark, despite his state as a curse and everything, the Niwas treat him well, are concerned about him. In return, Dark also helps his tamer whenever possible, despite having an attitude problem. However, the Hikaris shun Krad, treat him like a parasitic presence and a curse. Because of this, Krad is lonely. And when even the only other presence similar to him aka Dark hates him, he is really pitiful. After all in volume 9, Krad says that he envies Daisuke. Until then, he needs more panels. D<

FMA: I read it after D.Gray-man because I heard that it's similar to DGM. My favourite character's Edward Elric, and I support Edward x Winry all the way. Even thought I might like BL couples of other series, but I can never stand those couples of FMA. Roy's too old for Edward, and Envy's technically Edward's half brother in the anime. Currently the story's in the climax, and I'd really love to see the climax end nicely. Especially I want Alphonse to get his body back, and a Edward x Winry last page.And a Harry Potter-ish epilouge. just joking. Still didn't like the way Envy commited suicide but oh well... FMA ftw and Edward should get a happy ending because he deserves it like totally.

Chinese language: It's my second language (because I'm Chinese) and quite troublesome compared to English. So many strokes, but I suppose that's the beauty of it. But recently I've been thankful that I can read and understand it due to the unavailability of Japanese manga raws and availibility of very HD Chinese scanlations on the internet for series like Ouran High Host Club (chapter 72's coming soon), Monochrome Factor (Just read 41), Kingdom Hearts II (I feel sorry for Axel in chapter 37), Pandora Hearts (Even if Gil is called as 小基 which sounds just like 小鸡 which means chick as in the baby chicken and I crack up because of this) Although it's in traditional Chinese which is much more complicated than the simplified Chinese I'm used to, at least I can understand it and I'm happy. Still a pain to read it still...and I'm dying for the next Ouran High chapter 8D

manga: I read it because of the kawaii-ness aka big-eyed-ness of it. And also because it has epic plots and characters. First seires was Cardcaptor Sakura, first series that I was reallt obsessed with was Death Note. Because of this, I also learnt some mediocre Japanese enough to read some raws although mostly I still look at the kanji which are the Chinese looking characters and cheat in the process. Currently I'm still more biased towards shounen manga because I can't stand shoujo manga unless it has an excellent plot that involves action and fighting like Shugo Chara, DNAngel and Monochrome Factor due to too much fluff. One exception is Ouran High. But that's because of Tamaki and Haruhi. Now I'm most obsessed with Pandora Hearts because of the Alice in Wonderland theme, gothic Victorian-ness, cute protagonist and his erm...ancestor. Chapter 38 was epic win especially Gilbert's past. Damnit, I'm starting to ship Jack x Gilbert and Jack x Vincent... But who is that mysterious woman on the last page? (O_o)
