MIDORI NO HIBI (MIDORI DAYS)

It cannot be denied that we may all have special feelings to someone, and that someone doesn't have any idea about it. Deep down our hearts we have been wanting to express these strange feeling we have, but we couldn't really find the right time, when and the very reason why we have to. We may have all the right words to say but can there be anyway that we can perfectly spell out these words through our mouth. In most popular cases, these feelings transpire among friends but in this one unique, heart warming anime series proves that this can also happen even among strangers.

Although Midori knows something about Seiji, Seiji doesn't know anything about Midori. She is a complete stranger to him until one day, they were united in a very fashionable way. Midori is one of the few people who idolizes Seiji Sawamura. She's been loving him silently, and deep down her heart she wants him to know. Seiji however is the toughest student in their school. He seemed very notorious that even girls are afraid of him. That's the very reason why he has gone seventeen without having any girl friend, yet how badly he wants to have one. His fighting skills however have paid a lot in protecting weak people from bullies. Seiji is very well known with his powerful Devil's Right Hand when one day he has to pretend its injured. The story between Seiji and Midori starts then. One day, when Seiji was daydreaming about having a girl friend, and Midori as she wished to be with Seiji, they found each other uniquely united. Midosri was on Seiji's right hand. How the story went?

Midori No Hibi Theme: Mou Sukoshi (A Little More) - Lyrics/Composition: Atsumi Saori

soshite kizuita toki ni kangaeteru no wa kimi no koto de...
sore ga sugoku hazukashikattari
sugoku iyadattari omoete
sore wa boku ga kimochi wo tsutaeru koto ga kowai kara de
  When I noticed I was thinking about you...
  I felt very embarassed
  And I really hate that feeling
  That's because I'm afraid to convey my feelings

atama de osaetsukete mo kokoro ga dousuru koto mo dekinakute
autabi ni kimi ni satorarenai youni
itsumo to kawarinai youni hanashiteru tsumori de
  Even though I suppress it in my head I can't do anything about my heart
  I don't let you notice it when we meet
  So it can be normal how I plan to talk to you

yoyuu mo nakute kurushiku natta boku wa
kimi ni uso wo tsuiteshimau... dakedo
  To act so composed has started to hurt
  Lying to you I will put away... but

mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
kimi no kokoro ni chikazuitara
mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
ima kono toki ga kienai youni
  A little more... A little more...
  If I can get closer to your heart
  A little more... A little more...
  So that this moment won't end

douka kamisama boku ni yuuki wo kudasai
  Please God, give me courage

soshite omoiagunete mo kakkou warui dake no boku de...
kimi ga dou omotteru no ga ki ni natte mo
ippo mo saki he sumanai wakatteru tsumori de
  When I'm alone with my bad crazy thoughts
  I worry about what you think of me
  I'm sorry I stepped forward to try to let you know

jibun jyanai you na mune no MOYAMOYA ga
itaku natte nigetakunaru... dakedo
  I'm not myself, I don't like the fog around my heart
  Depending on someone else makes me run away... but

mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
kimi no soba ni irareta nara
mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
yoru yoake nai de kureta nara
sabishii toki mo namida wo nugutte ageru kara
  A little more... A little more...
  If I can get beside you
  A little more... A little more...
  Night does not continue once dawn comes
  So wipe away your tears when you're feeling lonely

yozora ni ukabu kakete mo hikaru tsuki ga
tsuyoku mo narenai jishin mo nai
boku wo mite hohoenda hora ne...
  The glowing moon floats out into the heavens
  I'm not stronger or more confident
  See me smiling, look, OK?

mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
kimi no soba ni irareta nara
mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
yoru yoake nai de kureta nara
  A little more... A little more...
  If I can get beside you
  A little more... A little more...
  Night does not continue once dawn comes

mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
kimi no kokoro ni chikazuitara
mou sukoshi... mou sukoshi...
ima kono toki ga kienai you ni
  A little more... A little more...
  If I can get closer to your heart
  A little more... A little more...
  So that this moment won't end

douka kamisama boku ni yuuki wo kudasai
  Please God, give me courage

TADA KIMI WO AISHITERU

2008-09-07T09:04:00.000-07:00

TADA KIMI WO AISHITERU (Just Loving You)
International Title: Heavenly Forest

Tada Kimi Wo Aishiteru is one of my favorite Japanese films. A very unique story that portrays how love can work in its very courageous way to prove its existence. Shizuru in the stroy is the quirky looking girl whose hiding a lot about herself. She met Makoto on her way to school when she was about to cross the street. Makoto however has a complex which causes him to shy away from other people, but Shizuru was able to have him open up to her naturally. Shizuru only wants to be with Makoto, without doing or saying anything obvious, Shizuru definitely likes Makoto. Shizuru shares most of her time with Makoto and goes with him in the forest to take beautiful photos together. However, Makoto has feelings for another student in the Campus, her name is Miyuki. A girl with glamor and whose circle of friends came into picture and taken some, if not so much of Makoto's time with Shizuru. Shizuru however has still been very supportive for Makoto, but no longer can she take that she might lose him, she wants to be like what Makoto likes about Miyuki. Like a little girl she seemed to be, she decided to leave and have her self maturely grown in the west. Maokoto then realized how important Shizuru is in his life and decided to look for her in New York City.

About the Main Characters:

Shizuru - was played by AOI Miyazaki. The quirky look of Shizuru has a reason behind it. It was revealed to Makoto that Mizuki is in a very unique condition regarding her physical maturity so to speak. What she exactly told him about was the baby tooth she still has. But it was vaguely explained, that Makoto was not even aware that Shizuru is actually sick.

Makoto - was played by Hiroshi Tamaki. The man Shizuru loved from the very start. The reaso why he actually has this tendency to shy away from people is the fact that he is applying a medicine that doesn't smell good. And he doesn't want people to notice this. But Shizuru didn't care at all because she said she has chronic rhinitis and she couldn't barely smell anything at all.

The last part of the story will tell everything about Shizuru and how much she had been falling in love with Makoto day after day in her life. You may want to watch this movie guys, visit this link, and remember to register first. ne?

If you guys can't resist Shizuru's charm, visit the official website of Aoi Mizaki at this LINK.

MISA NO UTA - Death Note
(click here)

Ki wo tsukete kami sama wa miteru.
Kurai yomichi wa te wo tsunaide kudasai!
Hitori de tooku demo itsumo mitsukedashite kureru.
Shitteru koto wa zenba oshiete kureru.
Watashi ga oboetanakutemo,
nandodemo oshiete kureru.
Be careful, God is watching.
In a street blacked by night, please link our hands together.
Even if I'm by myself and far away, He can always come find me.
He comes to teach me everything He knows.
Even if I should no longer remember,
He will teach me over and over.

Demo zenbu wakatte shimattara dou sureba ii no?
 But what should I do once I know everything?

Death Note brief introduction:

The story basically revolves around a mysterious and powerful notebook that could kill anybody whose name is written in it. This notebook came from the world of death gods, dropped it to the world of humans and allow them to take ownership of this killing material. The series centers on Light Yagami who has discovered about the notebook and his very ambitiousattempt to create a world of no evil by killing those whom he considers villains. There he met Ryuk, the shinigami (death god) owner of Light's notebook before 'twas dropped. Because of Light's judgments, he has created conflicts between several organizations and peace officers in Japan that led him to engage battle against L, his very opponent that mirrors his skills and intellectual capabilities. Both L and Light (Kira) obtain extraordinary deductive skills that made the story even more exciting.

These two have been working together since Howl was young. It was told that Howl sold his soul to Calcifer, creating a strong bond , more likely a contract which can only be broken by the lady of the story Sophie.

Lyricist: TANIGAWA Shuntarou
Composer: KIMURA Yumi
Arranger: HISAISHI Joe
Vocalist: BAISHOU Chieko

namida no oku ni yuragu hohoemi wa
toki no hajime kara no sekai no yakusoku
the smile that waver inside tears
is the promise of the world since the beginning of time
ima wa hitori demo futari no kinou kara
kyou wa umare kirameku
hajimete atta hi no you ni
even if now you're alone, from the yesterday when you were two
glittering today's arisen as the day you met for the first time
omoide no uchi ni anata wa inai
soyokaze to natte hoho ni furetekuru
you are not inside memories
come as a gentle breeze to graze my cheek
komorebi no gogo no wakare no ato mo
kesshite owaranai sekai no yakusoku
even after parting in an afternoon, sunshine leaking through leaves
the promise of the world never dies
ima wa hitori demo ashita wa kagirinai
anata ga oshietekureta
yoru ni hisomu yasashisa
now you're alone, but tomorrow's limitless
you taught me the gentleness hidden in the night
omoide no uchi ni anata wa inai
seseragi no uta ni kono sora no iro ni
hana no kaori ni itsumademo ikite
you are not inside memories
you live forever into the melody of a brook,
in the colour of this sky, in the fragrance of flowers

Useful Gadgets

2008-09-06T12:02:00.000-07:00

I found a few quite useful gadgets and had it here in my blog. One is the puzzle-riddle section which i find it very interesting and unique choices of questions are featured. Answers are available on the original site. Please click on the link and it will take you to that particular topic's forum. It really is a brain teaser!

I chose this gadget not because its difficult and its something to brag about if you find the answer. Technically, puzzles are not made to make life difficult either. It can enhance your thinking process, but most importantly it intensifies your patience and determination to resolve it. Quite a good practice ey?

Another one is the Japanese word of the day. Wonder why? Well, its in my profile. Obviously I like Japanese songs. And within this week (we'll see) i will be sharing some of my favorite Japanese Lyrics and tell you guys about some of the facts behind it. Should it be a soundtrack from an animated series, you would definitely know. As of the moment, I hope you would enjoy learning quite a few Japanese words everyday. Well it couldn't be so useful to some, but tell you what learning it is so much fun specially when you love watching anime. ^_^ "Arigatou!"

The last thing I'd like to highlight is the official you tube gadget. Technically I chose this one to be in this blog because you might want to check out some videos without browsing another tab. That's what it does basically. Well ... if it wouldn't work perfectly, please don't bite me. Later i might be sharing some articles regarding music videos and movie series. Then you can definitely make use of this you tube gadget without losing the page you are currently reading in this blog. Amazing right? LOL

The rest ... they're there to make you even happier each day! Have fun. ^_^
