Kuroshitsuji II a.k.a Black Butler 2 review (FINAL EP)

I watched the english subbed the so called last episode/ episode 12 last night.I hope there will really be episode 13 or another season for this.

I expect that Alois and Ciel will have a battle of the wits since watching it from episode 4 but my imagination didn't really came true.

Hannah really is a master planner! I even like her more.

 Both Ciel and Alois got a nice ending. Ciel for his revenge accomplished, fulfilled contract and a free ( I mean without having to pay for the wage or salary) butler.  Poor Sebastian, he can't eat Ciel's soul. I also pity Lizzy for being left alone. His servants do really care about him.

For Alois, he can now join Luka, Hannah and Claude. I am glad he made the butlers fight without getting their meal especially Claude. Honestly, I am a fan of Alois Trancy and I really like him. I like the way Yana Toboso created his character. I also like Ciel but in this season I love Alois more and Ciel annoys me a lot. He is a selfish brat.

The whole season is dumber than the previous one. At first, while watching the second season, I got really thrilled and excited every episode because of its unpredictability and plot twist but the ending is like WTF.

I find this dancing part very cute

I know that many hates Lizzy. I think animators really intended to make Lizzy annoying. For me, she is a little bit annoying in the anime and in the manga, she isn't. I still like her and she is really cute and adorable. Her mom, Mrs. Frances Middleford, is also cool and badass.

I prefer the season one because of more detailed plot, characters and the balance of hilarity and seriousness. I really love the curry arc and the introduction of Meirin's, Bard's and Finny's backgrounds.

I expect the ending more cruel and better. It is cool that Ciel turned into a demon but I found the contract stupid and not having an awesome smart way response like I experienced in Code Geass and especially Death Note.

Lelouch, is this you? ^^

 This season is like a doujinshi/shounen ai anime made by Yanao Rock.
Yanao Rock is Yana Toboso's pen name when she was making yaoi manga (ex. Glamorous Lip) back then. I also want to read Rust Blaster.

 If we do the math here, Ciel's birth date is 14th December 1875 meaning he is 13 years old in the anime. Alois's birthdate is November 5, 1875.

Meaning they are both 13 years old.

I hope it will not be the ending or almost the same in the manga.

I will still read it and like I said in my first blog about Kuroshitsuji 2. The manga is 10x better.

The shounen-ai parts are more on interpretation and fanservice unlike in the second season that the anime is obviously gay. If I am a boy, I'll not consider this as a shounen anime.

Anyway, I'll wait for the Kuroshitsuji OVA release.

Fullmetal Alchemist! I really love it!

For those who aren't reading/watching Fullmetal Alchemist in a long time (or who never read or watch it), the manga ended on June 2010 but I haven't watched the anime ending yet although the anime series ended.

I"LL NOT POST SPOILERS C=

read the last chapter online
watch FMA Brotherhood online (subbed and dubbed)

Okay I just posted this today because I decided to remember the past chapters so I will start to read this manga again from chapter 1. This is one of the best series of mangas/animes in my life that were finished besides Yuyu Hakusho, Slam Dunk, Sailormoon and Voltes V.

For those who are not familiar with this series, I'll recommend it and for those who watch anime but aren't really interested, just watch the whole anime or read the whole manga so you can be amazed to the whole story.

The Epic Spongebob/Death Note parody

This is epic! I love the way Spongebob is so crazy here and Light Yagami's attitude is really suited for him in Bikini bottom.

Nana Mizuki - Beautiful singer and seiyuu

I became familiar of her when I searched the voice actors/actresses behind the
new characters of Kuroshitsuji II.

Nana Mizuki's biography and discography

By reading about her, I searched her on youtube to find out the reason of her popularity.

I became a fan of her when I watched her music videos on youtube. I cannot believe she is the voice behind Hinata and especially Alois.

Her duet with ALI PROJECT



She looks very young and vibrant. She looks humble in her interviews.

This is one of my favorite music videos/songs of her by kingrecords:

Kuroshitsuji 2 / Kuroshitsuji season 2

While I am still waiting for episode 3 English subbed, I'll be posting my review about this.

Sorry, my PC is messed up that the text in this article are fucked up.

I watched the first and second episode two days ago. At first, I am lazy to watch this season because the manga is 10x times better. Lizzy/Elizabeth's mom, The Circus Arc and Arthur still rocks!

                              from the Kuroshitsuji Official site. (This is what I've imagined when they meet)

After I wached Kuroshitsuji 2, I really like it especially when Sebastian and Ciel are still on the season. If not, I'll just watched the first episode because the season looks like a fanfic turned into anime. Also, Alois is a gay (short shorts) psychotic delinquent brat.

                                                         I wonder what really happened to them Oo

From crows, there are spiders in this and he obtained the seal on his tongue.

Oh no WTF is this laugh?

                                                        More brutal than Hunter X Hunter anime, Bleach and Naruto

Similar to season 1 except that there are three visitors in the Trancy mansion, Alois dislikes his uncle. I found Claude won me with his tap dance.

                                   He is the best actor because of his natural fake smile and loneliness (better than Ciel)

Alois is very interesting to watch than Claude. It gives a refreshing feeling to watch an anime again after Code Geass.

                                              I can't wait to see the episodes. Alois is so young and cute.

                 I found this scene hilarious. Can I also do that to my uncle who is after the money? Gonna try that.

                    I am glad Claude didn't join Alois to laugh. He is also like Sebastian who sometimes defies orders.

The stranger who came during the rain/storm is obviously Sebastian but I wondered why he is after the tea.  

Yipee!! Sebastian showed again! with

Ciel in a briefcase.

                                                              Alois, are you going to _____ Ciel?
Tired of screen caps. 

Overall, I like this season and I am really going to watch this till the end. I am more curious about Alois and Claude but I still prefer Sebby and Ciel over them. Besides a great singer, Nana Mizuki did a great work in his boyish voice and it suits to Alois pretty well. I wish they met like this in this 2nd episode opening:



Just enjoy! If you like less shounen-ai stuff and you are into more shounen stuff, just read the Kuroshitsuji manga because it is so different and it is still in 40+ chapters. I read it only in 3 days. You can even read it in less than one week. Can't get enough of reading Alois x Ciel fanfics ^^

Meiko Kaji: Sasori & Lady Snowblood (KILL BILL)

For KILL BILL fans and Asian film fans, I know that some of you also like Jeon Ji hyun/Gianna Jun, or other asian/cult/ grindhouse actresses.

When I remembered about the 70s especially the pinky violence. I remembered my favorite cult actress which is Masako Ota or known as MEIKO KAJI 梶 芽衣子.


I found out after I watched Hana to Hebi 2. I am curious about the original Hana To Hebi movie and I searched about pinky violence, pink eiga, roman porno and then I clicked a youtube related video to Meiko Kaji.


But still, thanks to Tarantino because Meiko Kaji became more active again in 2005 and fans posted vids and pics on the internet.

My favorite films of hers are:

the greatest exploitation/WIP (women in prison) film:

Sasori trailer

Lady Snowblood trailer



I have an account on youtube henyongsakuragi and my most viewable video is this:



The next video is not mine but this is one of my favorite songs of hers:



Cool opening of her short tv series:

If you wonder what is happening to her this modern times, just check it on:

http://community.livejournal.com/meikokaji

and also there are pics on Meiko Kaji facebook.

Best of all, Just search her on google and google videos using Meiko kaji and if you want to know her more just search her in kanji:  梶 芽衣子 or   梶芽衣子

ONE PIECE Strong World Movie (BADASS!!!)

It is ten months ago (Aug 2009) since I saw the trailer of this movie. The DVD and the english subs aren't still released.

But I cannot really wait to watch this badass movie in English subs.



Zorro is still badass with his badass gun. If he really existed in real life, I really want to be his girlfriend/wife. :)


In this trailer, their costumes are wicked cool!




So I'll be posting a review for this!
