Macross Frontier has become one of the few joys left in my life, that and Team Fortress 2. Exams are just around the corner and I don’t have time to do much else. How I miss the carefree days of WoWing away the weekends. Anyway, the new OP/ED single is finally here! It’s awesome! And [...]
It’s artsy Episode 16 of Macross Frontier gets a new ending theme Northern Cross performed by May Nakabayashi. It’s a really beautiful song written to fit Sheryl’s image. YouTube video and my rough guesstimation of the song lyrics after the jump.
“Where’s my pizza?” It’s cool now guys. Code Geass is back from the dead. As Pierce Brosnan would say if he were an anime otaku blogging about Code Geass: It lives to die another day. Okay, so it’s not perfect, but at least we are free of this particular uninspired story arc and on to [...]
I hereby declare Macross Frontier OST 1 to be the animé soundtrack of the year, and all upcoming titles for the remaining half of the year shall have to live in shame knowing that they will never live up to the greatness that is this collection of pure awesome. It’s so good that I translated [...]
Oh my god! It’s finally here! The Holy Grail! The first song that Maaya and her former mentor Yoko Kanno have worked together on in almost half a decade! Triangler is the first opening song for Macross Frontier. Lyrics translation and fanboying after the break.
My favourite singer Maaya Sakamoto and famous anime composer Yoko Kanno are working on a new song together! Oh my god! This is like having two birthdays in the same year, except that my birthday this year was pretty crappy, so I guess it’s more like one and a half birthdays.
Dancing in the velvet moon is one of the songs on Nana Mizuki’s new mini album STARCAMP EP, and it also happens to be the ED theme to Rosario + Vampire‘s unbearably fanservicy anime adaptation, which, I shall once again take the opportunity to remind everyone, is a travesty to the awesome page-turner that is [...]
Ash Like Snow is the second OP theme to Gundam 00. I was never a fan of the brilliant green and I still think that this song doesn’t feel OP-ish, but the lyrics are great and the booklet art has Tomoko sitting on Kaneda’s bike while holding an orange Haro, and that’s pretty awesome in [...]
By my usual post-title-naming convention, this entry should have been “Gundam 00 – Friends”, but I decided that G00 isn’t worthy of this song. Also, I think I have more than enough entries on that as it is. So anyway, I translated the full lyrics of Stephanie’s latest song Friends, which also happens to be [...]
As you may know, I am a huge Maaya Sakamoto fanboy. So you can believe me when I say that her recent songs had been quite disappointing ever since she parted ways with her composer and mentor Yoko Kanno. Which is why Saigo no Kajitsu (The Last Fruit) is such a pleasant surprise for me. [...]
Remember the 2ch hit flash animation with the spinning leek? An indie Finnish song that achieved Internet fame thanks to a fateful fusion of Japanese otaku culture, Macromedia and Bleach, Ievan Polkka lives again! Hatsune Miku Well, I’m in love with the song all over again thanks to this YouTube video and a crazy piece [...]
Dear Genshiken 2, I’m sorry I said all those mean things to you. I thought you lost your way, but after watching episode 2 and 3, I realized that you were just holding back your true powers in order to give us a pleasant surprise. I hope you will find it in your heart to [...]
