Do not let your Guard Down! (07-GHOST ANIME REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter

Don't be deceived!!


I'm sorry, I can't take it anymore.

Enough is enough.

The first episode is so promising. It was fast paced and opens a lot of potentials. But, it suddenly digs its own pit hole.

I'm not against cheesy moments between boys, a little bromance won't bite. But..it's TOO MUCH!! Lame...lame...lame....to the extent of being PATHETIC. Yes, TEITO KLEIN is so PATHETIC!!


Teito Klein
The lamest main character ever!!
TEITO


The other surrounding characters look cool, even Ayanami (Main Villain). But, Teito destroys it. Well, even his bestfriend, Mikage. They are both PATHETIC. Are these boys really from the ARMY? Well, it's not that bad to have those kinds of men, but their BROTHERHOOD
is so OVER THE TOP!!

Mikage
The lamest best friend ever!!
MIKAGE

I've reached episode 7, but wasn't able to finish it. I still don't know the story. It's really confusing. I don't know what they are fighting for. Images of the past of Teito confuses him, but IT MORE CONFUSES ME!! Every episode will test your patience. But, I won't be betting anymore. My only regret is that I wont be able to see the 7 Ghosts, and I hope Teito is not part of it. My golly!! He's the most lame MAIN CHARACTER EVER BORN!!

My regrets!!


HOW COULD BE THIS SO POPULAR? Well, I think I know the answer because, I myself, was deceived. I don't think I can recommend it. but I know my sister will like this. **Sigh**


and also before I forgot.........

WHY IN THE WORLD IS TEITO STILL IN HANDCUFFS????

Valkyria Chronicles: First Look! (VALKYRIA CHRONICLES ANIME REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter


I don't care how many plot holes this anime has!! and with cliche~ish moments every now and then...no need to bother them as I am already satisfied...because VALKYRIA CHRONICLES --- oozes with COOLNESS FACTOR to the bones!! Bwahaha!! Because of this one, I felt faith again!! There is hope in the Anime Community. Bwahahaha!!!

Ahermmm...Sumimasen...

Anyways, back to the topic. I accidentally fell over with this one. I saw its title from somewhere then immediately rushed to myanimelist to check. I was surprised that it received good reviews, because I believe this hasn't received much talkings (or am I Wrong?) Well, anyways..I was actually hesitant at first because I thought it might be a very lousy war title and I just might be put into a suicidal chair. But, GOOD THING...I wasn't blessed with a perfect intuition! Bwahahaha!!!

I easily fell in love with it! It wasn't as heavy as what I thought at first. It actually has nice balance of themes which a good anime could offer: Has a light approach, but with a serious tone; Not bloody, could totally be enjoyed by everyone even children; funny yet touching (kinda reminds you of the holocaust); and of course, the most important ingredient..hihihihi....the ROMANTIC BLINGY that has been circulating my hypothalamus ever since.

Bwahahaha!! Yeah, I'm writing this one because of my undying emotion towards the love pyramid that the main characters have.!! I am not even half the series, yet I already feel this unstoppable urge to say something about my new found love duo!! Wushu! I always find my new dream love team, they are already so many, now I can't even remember them. Don't mind me, I'm talking to myself..hehe ^_^

Anyhowzz..I could say that Valkyria is quite similir with Code Geass, well yeah, of course, since they are of both war type. But good thing, my comparison would be in favor with this one..hehehe.. I enjoyed Geass, but not like with this "smiling - wholeheartedly enjoyment" for Valkyria. => Unlike Code Geass, Valkyria has a soft nature which could give you a relaxing feeling. Although, it's in the middle of a war, you still can't help but be ...happy! Tee hee! I don't know..Happiness is the name of the game. Well, I don't blame Geass, because of course, it is written that way, the plot is very serious and dark. But what I am pointing is that...well,,,hehehe...just to make Valkyria shine...whatever...don't mind me...hehehe...

Where am I? Okay. May I tell you something about the characters? I'm still on episode 14, so I do not know what's still gonna happen next, but from my initial observation, I could say that...WELKIN GUNTHER is totally KAKKOI!! **nosebleed** He's totally a weirdo, but of course, a genius in disguise. Who wouldn't like him? A very naive guy, but is totally an incredible man. He fights with a very sure-to-win plan! And even though, how great and smart his opponents are, he, of course, outlasts them! Nyarhahahahahah!! (kinda fishy, he always wins no matter what)

The heroic Welkin -sama

Then we also have, Alicia. I was so happy that Marina Inoue voices her. My golly, Marina-san always receive good roles but I felt she was already typecasted with this kind of roles..but anywhoozz, so great of her! Back to Alicia, well, she's your typical strong-natured female personality whose prowess captures the hearts of men..Bwuhuhuhu!! I am now being jealous of her..Argh..but I know Welkin-sama and Alicia would be a perfect love team, so I'll let them be.! So that means, noooooooooooooooooooo other partiesss!!! (but this makes the story more interesting..tee hee!)

The aphrodite Alicia - san

Then we also have.. I won't tell it anymore. Since I felt my ramblings had been so out-of-town already. Gomen!

Over all, I am still keeping my hopes high! I know there are more happy episodes to come. I just hope that they don't disappoint. ! **always fingers crossed**

I am missing my Yomi-Onee-san! (YOZAKURA QUARTET ANIME REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter


The cast of Yozakura Quartet
(left - right: Kotoha, Hime, Akina, Ao)

Hmmm...Where to begin? Well, Yozakura Quartet, I could say, falls to the so - so level for me.It's not very bad, but not very good neither. If you have free time, then try watching it, but if you're kinda busy and only goes for the must - type then, it's okay to skip it. You could live your life to the fullest even without seeing this.


Well, I don't mean to bash the anime. I had some little pretty moments actually. hmm..little moments...hehe...I don't know. I like its concept of 'youkai', it always remind me of my Claymore days and Claire -chan..hehe..but anyways, it's kinda cheesy here.


However, I don't think the story has been rushed. It actually has a nice flow for the 12 - episode type. Although I might say, great heroism and character improvement plus coolness factor are lacking in this one. For me, the characters are blah, although they are actually very likable.


For example, the main charac, Akina, I am so rooting for him. I want to him to be the sole savior of the Sakurashin Town, and wishing him to be a super "saiyan" (read: super powers) later in the series, but apparently, he is just a typical human being who is just gifted with a curse which runs in his family,and can only do one thing...tantananannnnn...cleanse youkai. He was overshadowed by the next not-even-cool-but-I-like-her character..

Akina - human

...Hime. She so reminds of Yomi-onee-san from Ga Rei Zero. They are both long hair and beautiful. They are both skilled warriors. The thing that differentiates them (aside from their identities) iis the oozing coolness factor of my greatest onee-san! Yeah boy!!Hime doesn't even have the slightest of it, well, I am so horrible bec. I am comparing the two which should not be the case since they are not of same situation..Well, whatever, don't mind me... Hime has the greatest role in saving her city but I didn't feel much of it that's why even though I like her, she won't make it to the cut.

Hime - Ojousama
With the other characters, let's say..hmmmm...passing marks for them.


With the OP & ED, passing also..but they do not make a recall to my ears..except for that particular BGM,,the one with the english lyrics? Hmm..I'm not sure..hehe..


Overall, I think this anime would only be on my passing level although I do not regret seeing this. I believe, we have different tastes to choose the good and the bad. So it's for you, readers, to decide! (Hmmm...I would be so touched if anyone would just read this..hehe...)

What's the secret? (HIMITSU NO HANAZONO JAPANESE DRAMA REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter



Gyaboo!!!1 another MUKYAAAAAAAA!! I truly enjoyed this DRAMA..really enjoyed! Although i can say it is not that too overwhelming like Nodame and Dragon Zakura, but it is a show recommended for everyone's taste. Not that too addicting but it is really something special. Very warm and touching..and deadly hilarious.


The good thing about the show which i really like, is casting SHAKU YUMIKO as Tsukiyama Kayo, the heroine of the story. I admire this actress very much, really good in her craft. I find her very beautiful although this is the first time i have seen and watched her. I was surprised that she is already 28 because she does not seem to be in my opinion. She is one of the reasons why i kept watching the show because i want to see more of her. She is really beautiful and likable. I can't find any scene where she got me annoyed. She is the light towards the dark lives of the brothers, especially the part where she accompanied Hinata after the confession of his real identity. She stands as the older sister to him. She is the IDEAL SISTER to everyone. YES, THAT'S IT. GASSAN IS EVERYONE'S SISTER!


my GREATEST DISAPPOINTMENT in the show CONCERNS the LOVE LIFE OF my ONEE-CHAN. I don't like the older brother, Wataru, for her. Although i know it's gonna happen and is really expected. HUHUHUHUHU!!!!!!!!!!!1 Why???? I'm really pushing myself for the third brother, SATOSHI, to end up with TSUKIYAMA because i feel they are the most likable team among th 3 older brothers. JUN KANAME as SATOSHI, which i think i've seen him somewhere (drama), is really KAKKOI!!!!!!! KAWAII + KAKKOI = happily ever AFTER!


but sadly, wataru confessed to gassan, though no direct answer from her, the feeling is obviously mutual! HMPH! Anyways,,,, the story is really simple yet excellent. The secrets were the X factor of the drama, the thing that made hinata (youngest brother), KANATA HONGO, shines as an ACTOR and an IDOL!! woooohhhh!!!!!! so MOE!! I cant believe it! Not just long ago, i've seen him perform TWIST SERVE of RYOMA-SAMA and now,,,,WHATTTTTT?????? He is slowly turning into a REALLLLLL BISHOUNEN with a SOFT SIDE. But i still feel his side of being a kid, although he becomes taller, his face is still the soft kid which everyone wants to adopt!


OHHHHH!! BEFORE I FORGOT!! the OTHER NEXT GOOD THING OF THE SHOW aside from TSUKIYAMA is its soundtrack!! VERY LIKABLE AND IS WORTH LISTENING TO.


BABY DONT CRY by Namie Amuro is ENOUGH TO BRIGHTEN UP YOUR DAY!


PS
i feel touched and moved when i witness brotherly love.
so pure and innocent.
it makes me wanna cry

DRAGON ZAKURA EP 1-3

Follow docalion on Twitter


due to technical reasons, i cant fully enjoy dragon zakura to its maximum satisfaction. i dare say that this show really has the elements to outstand other school anime (GTO, Gokusen). the casting superb and the plot is incredible. the sensei - SUGOI NE! this got me hooked that easily. now im thinking to buy a dvd of it rather than have it streamed. sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..if only cruchy has it then i wont have to worry about its loading rate bec. nothing does it best than crunchy..

will add more after watching the whole ep.

ALA CONCERTO!! (NODAME CANTABILE JAPANESE DRAMA REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter


Gyaboooo!! MUKYAA!!! hehehe...cant find any show as kulit as this one. i thought at first ueno juri (nodame) isn't that perfect for tamaki hiroshi (chiaki) but as the story progressed...GYABOO! SHE'S THE ONE for sure! i really do not know the story of the show but i thought it is the girl, nodame, who is the focus of the show..but she is still though,, it is just that chiaki's greatness outshined them all..hehehehe....TAMAKI HIROSHI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TOTALLY KAKKOI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1


i dont find the cast to be exaggerated although their acting is really out-of-this-world! they really made it look like the manga version (though i haven't read it myself) with those kind of white eyes, i dont know what do they call it..but it is really superb..

i like ryutaro mine, EITA, here..hehheee..another bishounen..also kiyora, i just forgot the name of the actress. i find her really pretty and simple..i also love masumi and saeko..they both have their own moments esp. saeko who is really lovable and witty..and the last would be stresseman, who i thought at first that the actor is really a foreigner because of the accent but i was really surprised that he is only a japanese, he is such a good talent, very versatile..

the orchestra is really captivating..i couldnt say less. i cant think of any praise to add more bec. my appreciation is already leaning towards a new drama that im currently watching..but needless to say, THIS DRAMA IS SURELY ONE OF THE BEST!! just want UENO JURI X TAMAKI HIROSHI IN LIFE..WISH THE DATING RUMORS WERE TRUE!!

OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB ANIME REVIEW

Follow docalion on Twitter



what can i say!!! i think OURAN HIGH SCHOOL HOST CLUB IS THE GREATEST SHOUJO ANIME EVEEEEEEEEER PRODUCED!!! i have just finished Ghost Hunt right before OURAN and thought to be really hooked there...but my excitement and enjoyment dropped down due to the unexplainable intensity brought by this CRAZY ANIME!! actually, i really prefer watching shounen and seinen type anime rather than those of shoujo because it gives you the spark and the "it" to continue, though i used to like CCS AND Fruits Basket, and got this ghost hunt recently (im still confused on how to determine if it is a shoujo anime inspite of its boyish story, you know what i mean?)

anyway, what made me got into this anime is through great ratings from various reviews i have read looking for good anime to watch..and thanks to all reviewers from animenfo who brought me here and presented worth-seeing shows for all otaku.. WOOOHHHH!! I CANT BELIEVE IT! it ended there!! my anticipation had just finally appeared to its halt. how could it be that fast..it's a 26-episode anime and yet it feels like to be 12..I WANT MORE!!

i just made my picture perfect to be MAI TANIYAMA of ghost hunt but i have to change her now already for it must be replaced my HARUHI FUJIOKA-SAMA!!! I LIKE HER!! but it is because she is the center of attention of my new found bishounen SUOH TAMAKI-SAMA!!! I REALLY REALLY LIKE THESE COUPLE...

i really do not know the real story of OURAN before i have watched it..i just have faith through all the good reviews i have read and luckily they did not disappoint me...WUSHU!! the FIRST EPISODE is still the best for me!!! WAAH!!! i was hoping silently that this new student, HARUHI, isn't a man for i want her to fall for someone from the HOST CLUB because i really think she is super cute!!! so KAWAIIIIIIIIIII!!! after that, i know it must be TAMAKI AND HARUHI FOREVER!! like MAI and NARU FOR-EVER!!

the story made me change my perception towards the host (hosto) job presented in the show.. i thought it is like selling your body to gain profit but i was surprised how does the anime did it so..or is it really like this (?) their job is really cool and so funny!! i dont mind some boy to boy scene down there, like between the hitachiin brothers and with hunny and mori-senpai...they are all unqie and so cute!!! woooh!!! ALL I CAN SAY IS ---SO KAWAIIIII!!

this anime made me forget all the tasks of being a student!!! so so so great!!! waaah!!! IT JUST MAKES ME WONDER WHY PEOPLE GO OVER THE OTHER HARUHI (SUZUMIYA) WHEN FUJIOKA AND HIS BUDDIES ARE FAR BETTER THAN THEM!!!

THIS ANIME IS SUPER RECOMMENDED!!

What's a himono-onna?? (HOTARU NO HIKARI JAPANESE DRAMA REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter



i finally made it! i have witnessed the greatest drama of the century!!!!!! although my 200 pesos have been spent unwisely because the dvd isnt complete and still have to stream two more episodes, while having problems with connection so the loading have been a loooooooong wait, i was able to watch three episodes of haruhi suzumiya because of that,,only knowing that after the 3rd part of the episode 10 the pc will just reboot...oh GOLLY.. so i still have to wait again for a decade to continue watching,,so i browse, for the moment, related info for haruhi because i got hooked mildly by the show, i thought it would grew into a more interest appreciation for the title but after the loading had finally come to its end and it's the time to continue what have been started....VOILA!!!!!!! the most incredible scenario in the history of man had just happened!!

it is the first time, as i remembered, that i really grab my hair so tightly and hold it so firmly because i felt that i was about to explode and will vanish from where i am sitting..yeah,exaggerated but the feeling is more than that, i really never felt and had reactions like that before, after watching great shows in the past (though i havent watched that lot). even hana kimi (japan) beat up my wooing for such a great show!!!! I CRIED, I LAUGHED, I WAS TOUCHED, I WAS MOVED, I WAS ECSTATIC AND I WAS HOOKED SO BADLY!!!!!! my golly, i really do not wish to expect a lot lot lot greatness from this, aside from reading from a blogger that this is a better one,,the plot was already enough to enjoy, a himono-onna character for a very beautiful and talented HOTARU who receive such good treatment from her kind hearted BUCHOU...woooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! i never wished for them to end up together at first because i want hotaru for teshima for he is younger and more handsome but................the world suddenly rotates around its axis that is why my preference eventually changed............ I WANT NOW THE TWO TO BE TOGETHER FOREVER EVEN IN REAL LIFE!!!!!!! hehehehe....

these actors are really great..i really like ayase haruka for portraying the role because he definitely gives truly justice for it..i dont find her over doing it (OA) but i find her expressions really cute through out the show,,and BUCHOU is the ideal man ever!! i thought he is perfect to be the older bro for hotaru but then their relationship should not only be like that.........good thing they really made it...even i wish there would be an extra episode i already feel contented of how the story goes....that if there would be an additional one im scared there would be complications involve but im sure it will be amazingly hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW TOUCHING THE LINES.................
Hotaru: see you.. see you..why?
Buchou: why? because you love me. and i love you too.

Delayed Reaction (HANA KIMI JAPANESE DRAMA REVIEW)

Follow docalion on Twitter

The reason why i started blogging is primarily to let go of the wild emotions who are dying to crack up brought by the multiple enjoyment from different shows I have watched recently. And one of these fads I have developed currently that makes me gaga over it is the Japanese TV Series - HANA KIMI (hanakazakiri no kimitachi e) which is adapted from a manga turned anime show. I am a fan of Asian Dramas and really enjoy them a lot, that is why browsing the net would be incomplete unless I visit a site which features updates about them. And I often see cover of Taiwan's star actress Ella of SHE in which she seems to be naked with two boys around him. The series might be a good one, as seen in the poster, which gives me an impression of a comedy genre. It says Hana Kimi as its title. Obviously, this is, again, another manga adaptation and there might be a Japanese version too. I am much curious about the Jap one than the Taiwanes version since I don't feel Ella that much as an Idol. I know it's kind of late because these dramas are long finished and are been discussed numerously around forums here in the internet. But, my badness, it is just recently where i found crunchyroll to be of great help of finding good shows on the inet. And this is where I try my luck. I searched for HANA KIMI...and tadaa --series complete.!

I watched the drama at first with my younger sister, but it really surprised me when I found myself hooking over the drama alone every night. It takes me days to finish the 12 episodes of the series because I make it two subs at night..wheew!!! Two of 45 minutes is quite exhausting to me already..but I stand firm, even my sis gave it up already. I can't blame her, she still have classes, lucky me - still on vacation! And after all the anticipation...thunder rolls and lightning strikes.....GRABEEH!! I thought Hana Yori Dango is the drama of the century until I saw the "threesome" and gave them my over whelming congratulations!


WARNING!!! do not try to watch the drama,, you'll get ADDICTED..

The story goes like this: a girl named Ashiya Mizuki (Maki) who is based in US, transferred in a Japanese All-boys School, Ohsaka High School, to make his athlete idol (Sano) in this school jump again. In order to do this, Mizuki have to pass through mishaps and predicaments to make his identity a secret while she is normally acting a boy in front of all the dormitory students. She gained friends and allies while staying at the place and had adventures too. She keeps in mind her true mission while having the best time of her life at the school with the help of her new found bestfriend Nakatsu (Toma) who is secretly in love with her. But how long can her secret identity last? And how would her life be changed by doing this mission?


And now, let me present to you the people who are around of this CONSPIRACY!



Nakatsu Shuichi (Ikuta Toma)

The first time I saw tomasu was during my high school years where my cousin started talking about "shounen club" and her KAT-TUN idols. Toma-chan is one of those whose pictures really made me think that there are great looking guys, aside from F4, outside the Philippines here in Asia. He's a part of the talent agency where my cousin's idols are currently in. She introduced her Japanese sense of idolism to us, newbies (me and my siblings), who later had been helpful in identifying Asian idols eventually..hehehe ^_^

I think this drama had given the greatest break in Toma-chan's career. I used to research him before but failed to come up with good resources, unlike now, where countless fans of different races started blogging about him. Now the information is at hand, finally! You cant blame these people who really drool over him. Who would not fall in love with such a jolly and cool character of Nakatsu in Ohsaka High Shool? His sole reactions in every scene are really markable. He is the soul of the series. Only Aliens from outer space might not appreciate his presence in this drama,,but unless you are not, and is real humanoid,, you will surely ask for more from him!



Ashiya Mizuki (Horikita
Maki)

I thought Mao Inoue of Hana Yori Dango Series is the cutest teen idol in Japan already (although I am not really so sure, I have not yet watched several Japanese dramas) but i was so disappointed when I found out that my admiration for my teen idol suddenly dropped when I saw Maki-sama played the role of Ashiya on Hana Kimi. I do not know this actress yet until I watched the series. She looks plain to me. But after browsing some pictures more, and getting some information, and finally loving her role in the drama,,OMG! She is so precious. She looks so kawaii even he is pretending to be a boy, but to me, she's obviously a girl. After using her image in this blog and on friendster, I've decided to watch her other drama series also. I want more of her. So cute girl!




Sano Izumi (Oguri Shun)

I remember this guy as Uchi on the hit Jdorama, Gokusen in which was lead by Yukie "Yankumi" Nakama (i miss her) with my idol-ever Jun Matsumoto. He is one of my favorite characters in the show. His hair is so memorable. I don't know what kind of style is that, but it looks cool: long, blonde, braided hair. It compliments his personality. The second time I have seen him is when he played the role of Hanazawa Rui with MatsuJun in Hana Yori Dango. He is second to Jun again, Yippee!!! I don't like his character that much although this is also the same character played by Vic of F4 (Lei) in Meteor Garden. I like Vic's role in that show, because Vic Zhou is my idol. However, Shun stand tall in his industry. I know he's one of the sought after celebrities in Japan and even played Shinichi Kudo in the live version of Detective Conan. I am going to watch it very soon! Shun's role as Sano Izumi in HK drama is not that outstanding compared to other casts in the show. This might because of, again, his morbid attitude where he is a loner and opposes by a jolly fellow, in the character of Nakatsu-sama. That is why there are times in the series that I don't want to watch scenes where he is included because of his boring attitude unlike Nakatsu's comedic skits. I never miss a part,though. But he is talented for sure, because he might not have those long list of works on his profile in wiki if he's not really that good enough on his chosen path after all.



Nanba Minami (Mizushima Hiro)

I wish MatsuJun was in this drama. The title says it's a "hottie paradise". Well, not all actors are really that hotties, as the title suggests, but there are really casts that are worth seeing here.A good drama where no MatsuJun is quite depressing but having someone who resembles like him, well, is forgiven. I was relieved when I saw my senpai. There are scenes that I can never tell whose actor is playing Nanba. Is MatsuJun had a cameo appearance in the show? jun matsumoto

But even the truth knocks me that my idol-sama wasn't in the show, I still feel glad that Hiro-san got to play the role. He really stood as the best Senpai ever. Very good at handling things. I wish in reality there is really a Nanba-senpai who all kouhai
can trust.



Kagurazaka Makoto (Shirota Yuu)



Whew! Another Hottie. At first, I thought he is just an ordinary and a regular guy. He is Tezuka-san in PoT Live. Although he is good looking, I think his role for the great tennis player is questionable (i haven't watched the movie, though, only trailers).Why? Because...he is over-quaaaaalified! This half Japanese-Spanish idol is really the man! He attends another school in the series but is really essential in the story. His kissing scene with Sano (Shun) is really funny but his masculinity wasn't harm at all. He is still the boy next door.






Senri Nakao (Kimura Ryo)

He is obviously a "homo" in the series, which makes the show wackier. At first I thought that his affection for Nanba-senpai is just for pure infatuation but I was mistaken. It was deeper..dramatic** ..like an intimate friend, so close and near, who worries more about the welfare of his greatest buddy who is in confusion.Anyways, thanks to him, he really adds flavor to the show. And his kissing with Nanba-senpai is the best.

**kiss on cheeks**
Nakao: Happy! ^__^
Nanba: Unhappy.. : - (




Sekime Kyogo (Osada Masaki)


I find Sekime-san a cutie in the series. He is the other athlete who competes with Sano in the sports competition and had defended Sano in many occasions. He is the first friend of Mizuki in the drama, as told by the heroine in the ending part, but I don't remember honestly how do these two met each other. I think I should look out for that one again. His confrontation with Mizuki in the farewell episode of the series really made a mark in me. He got me cried there. He's awesome!







Kayashima Taiki (Yamamoto Yusuke)

He is the dorm mate of Nakatsu in the series. He looks weird. And looks dirty to me, too. But he is a kindhearted person. He is the first one to know that Mizuki is a girl but did not reveal it since he thought it would not be important. He is noted for his hand gesture (putting them up) whenever he sense something, as bad auras or any spirit. I went to photobucket to get some pictures of the actors. I was surprised when I got a 2-page frames of pictures for this guy, because I wasn't expecting anything. The truth is, when I typed Ryo's and Masaki's names in the site, I wasn't able to come up with useful results. To think that those two are far better in looks, this man might be something incredible!



There you have it. My dosage of healthy life style. There are also funny characters in the series, like the both dorm heads of dorm 1 and 3 and the St. Blossom girls, Hibari and the Hibari four.But these persons I have listed are my favorites in the show. Others might not understand this fanatic feeling until they try it their selves. Why not take the greatest recipe ever, and savor every moment of it!
