…is Ono Daisuke (Ushiromiya KinzoBattler) and Inoue Marina (Ushiromiya Jessica), according to the official website. I am particularly pleased because it seems Marina has been relegated to supporting character a bit too often lately. And also since this reunites two of my fave seiyuu – can anyone say Hosaka + Kana (or Ku:nel Sanders + Inugami Kotaro)?

For the uninformed, Umineko no Naku Koro ni (うみねこのなく頃に) is the third in the When They Cry series after Higurashi no Naku Koro ni and Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai. I believe the anime is scheduled to start airing in the first half of 2009.

In the morning, she’s a seiyuu who caters for the kids!! At night, she’s a sexy gal who (censored censored censored)!!

This was part of the 30 July episode of Ariehen World, a variety show hosted by assorted members of boyband Kanjani8 focusing on supposed ‘Erokawaii seiyuu’. At least they got that Chiaki right – No.2 was Kita Michie (LOL) and No.1 was eroge seiyuu Aoba Ringo. The term ‘erokawaii’ (erotically cute) came into prominence thanks to the talented whore singer Koda Kumi.

Stuff from the video:
-IDOLM@STER t-shirt!!! >_<
-自称23歳 – LMAO –> Chiaking is always laughing about how she’s ‘eternally 23′ as opposed to the ‘forever 17′ club so it was hilarious that she managed to slip this joke in too.
-Yatterman… guess that’s the only show ‘normal’ people would recognise from her CV.
-Seriously, that close-up of her boobs & all that slutty stuff was just (ry

Predictably, the full clip is being taken off streaming sites faster (it’s still up here but who knows for how long) than Chiaking’s boobs sink to the floor when she takes off her bra. Guess TV Tokyo & Johnny’s don’t take too kindly to people spreading their stuff about.

Some belated thoughts on the song and the PV, which I only got around to viewing over the last day or two.

-If Hashihime was an art critic, j1m0ne would be a trashy tabloid writer.
-If Hashihime was The Phantom of the Opera, j1m0ne would be Spamalot.
-If Hashihime was a triple Michelin-starred establishment touting French cuisine, j1m0ne would be the greasy burger stand on the corner of 6th Avenue.
-If Hashihime was Nicole Kidman, j1m0ne would be Lindsay Lohan.
-If Hashihime was a macrobiotic diet, j1m0ne would be the Atkins diet.
-If Hashihime was Vanity Fair, j1m0ne would be OK! magazine.
-If Hashihime was Gisele Bundchen, j1m0ne would be Naomi Campbell.
-If Hashihime was the Academy Awards, j1m0ne would be the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
-If Hashihime was Brazilian Pudding-flavoured Pocky (which is bloody awesome), j1m0ne would be a manky Mapo Tofu-flavoured Pretz (yes it exists)
-If Hashihime was Carla Bruni, j1m0ne would be Camilla Parker-Bowles.
-If Hashihime was Manchester United FC, j1m0ne would be Bolton Wanderers.
-If Hashihime was a bottle of premium champagne, j1m0ne would be a can of warm Dr Pepper.

-If Hashihime was C.C., j1m0ne would be Cheese-kun.
-If Hashihime was an Aston Martin DBS, j1m0ne would be a Reliant Robin.

And I think that some of those differences are why Hashihime won the Blogger’s Choice and I the People’s Choice for the Anime Blog Awards. I believe that bloggers have more than half a brain which is why they can tell the difference between a classy blog with concise and informative analysis and a silly blog overflowing with drunken ramblings, unlike the masses who are easily fooled by fake pictures of two women kissing. And that’s why I’m a blogger!

Now that I’ve insulted the intelligence of my readers I’ll probably win nothing next year. But you know you secretly love me even if you don’t want to admit it.

I’m also starting to feel that next to “Hirano Aya”, j1m0ne is the word that crops up the most on Hashihime’s blog nowadays (≧д≦)ノ♪ “j1m0ne” came up four times on his/her most recent post ヾ( ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ

Yours truly is honoured m(；∇；)m

On a separate note…

I rarely check my stats for keyword searches but I did so on a whim today and what did I see?

Google Search Keyword: “Why people hate Mizuki Nana”

My Answer: I don’t know and I really don’t care (￣▽￣)

This reminds me of Hashihime’s post on Why People Hate Hirano Aya. Sigh.

I dislike loads of things like yaoi, baseball & corn soup but the fact that other people love them makes no difference to me, as long as they don’t try to shove corn soup up my nostrils.

I also like a lot of things like the smell of petrol, chicken fricassee & bouncy castles but I don’t expect other people to like them nor do I feel like trying to turn somebody who hates bouncy castles into a bouncy castle lover.

I don’t even bother attempting to qualify why I hate what I hate, since the answer is likely to be “Just because”.

But er… let me attempt to provide 5 reasons why I think people hate Mizuki Nana:
1. She yodels too much.
2. Her anime roles suck.
3. She’s more successful than Hirano Aya.
4. キモイ
5. ブサイク
6. 貧乳
and so on.

And last but not least… yay! I’ve managed to outdo Hashihime by mentioning the word Hashihime 19 times within a post. I think listening to fripSide NAO Project! on repeat today has crippled my brain.

Soooo, REALIZE is out today. Anyway, my copies of REALIZE and Rasen are safely in my hands now (thanks, dad!) and I would urge people to buy it (￣人￣)ｵ･ﾈ･ｶﾞ･ｲ♪ but nobody’s gonna listen anyway.

You’re not likely to see a picture featuring me in it ever again, so savour the pixelised moment.
