This is the shiny sticky post at the top of my LJ for anyone who wanders here invited or otherwise so that they can see what I'm into, why I'm into it, and subsequently beg to be my new disciple so that I can further educate them in the ways of Becoming a Better Fan of Court's Fandoms. You know you want to, so get ready!

On a final note: DUDES. I'm serious :/ THERE'S GAY IN THIS LJ. Don't set up camp if you think gay people are creepers and can diaf and that slashers are just CRAAAAAZY for turning perfectly "normal" characters gay in "non-homosexual-related shows". What would give you the idea I think that is in any way okay?

pretty sure they're at Eiji's place too...

My god people.

If you aren't frantically refreshing askgoldenpair.tumblr.com, then what are you doing with your life?? Every single entry kills me, and god the art is so good *_____*

Okay everyone should RUN not walk to purchase Oku-san's Daily Fantasies; it's a digital purchase, meaning it can be cheaper than hardcopy manga (which it is!), and it's one of the craziest, cutest BL manga I've read in a while.

The scanlations of the first few chapters have been available for a while, but after it was licensed, the scanlations were stopped, leaving more than half of this book unread by Western fans, which sucks, because you might have discerned from the available scanlations that this was just a beautifully-drawn but kind of flimsy comedy of one-shots, which it's anything but!

The story follows Oku-san, a salaryman who's got a raging crush on the deliveryman who services his apartment building, Sudou-san. To see Sudou-san as often as possible, Oku-san orders all manner of home-order items and launches into intense fantasies whenever Sudou-san shows up at his apartment, imagining them entwining in all sorts of uh, positions XD

That's what about half of the manga is about, but don't pass it off as a bunch (really really hilarious) little one-shots like that, as an actual plot develops over the course of the story and it winds up with a really endearing, adorable ending that'll make you glad you stuck with it!

It's definitely a great buy, so I urge everyone to give it a shot :3 The first few scanlations are still up around on reader sites online (google 'oku-san no mousouteki nichijou') for a preview of what to expect :3

So somehow I have remained in the dark for a good month that...the Visual Boy blog is finally accessible via smartphone! Hurrah! This means that after a year and a half of being behind the times, the blog finally lets me view all the goodies inside again :3 The first thing I did? Went to see what Nagayan's been up to XD

I have a lot to get caught up on of course, but the first thing I came upon was a recently posted survey of a bunch of user-submitted questions that he and others answered. Some of his were...amusing and moving XD

Question 4. If you could become an anime character, who would you want to be?
I've already been one, so I can't think of anything more.

Question 16. What's your ideal situation for a love confession?
A setup where I can say, "Sorry, I've...kinda fallen for you."

Question 18. If you were a girl, who would you want to date?
Tamaoki-san. <--DYING XDDDD

Question 19. What's the line that's left the greatest impression on you throughout your acting career?
Zannen munen mata raishuu <--;~~~~~~~~;

Question 31. Are you do-S or do-M?
Do-S of course! <---duh XD

Question 34. Are you the type to be spoiled by your girlfriend or not?
Case-by-case.

Question 39. Describe your top 3 favorite fruits!
Mango, apple, banana, strawberry, pineapple, kiwi, peach, pear, grape <--way to count, Nagayan.

Anyone going to Haru Comic City? (March 18, 4 days before my bday! :D) I want a buddy or seven to go with! Thinking of buying the pamphlet in case anyone wants to go in on it with me :3 It's at Tokyo Big Sight so you know it's awesome 8D

Cons: Sorry, but it really was about as boring as I expected it to be XD; I just didn't find the matches all that exciting! :|

Pros: sldkjfhsldifsdf HYOUTEI. CONTINUE BEING SO FABULOUS IN EVERY INCARNATION PLEASE. Aobe really couldn't stand in Katobe's shadow for kagami no naka no ore, but he kind of made up for that by showing up in a bathtub shaving his fabulous legs XDDDD

Also also also Dirty Pair fanservice *____* They kept in the adlibbing where a Hyoutei member comes to Sasaki with a problem every time, and last night Gakuto came to complain about Oshitari never hanging out with him anymore XD He then went on to explain how he got back at him--doing things like drawing a 肉 kanji on his forehead while he was sleeping or blacking out his glasses and watching as Oshitari ran around screaming, "GAKUTO! I'M BLIND!" Oshitari apparently got back at him by pasting a sign onto Gakuto's back that said, "I'm an Idiot", and Gakuto, pissed at this, decided to get revenge by telling the club how he saw Oshitari at a cat cafe the previous weekend XD

hnnnngggggg I love those two so MUCH.

New songs:
New theme song for Seigaku ofc
Awesome flashback song for Seigaku vs. Hyoutei
Tomorrow for You and I (putting it as a 'new song' because it wasn't in the original version of course) -- I wonder if this will be an all-the-time thing now? I'm still kinda meh on the song itself, but they blended it with Jumping Up, and THAT sounded awesome then!

Songs they kept:
Try Again (or some variation thereon--it wasn't the main song like originally, but it was there!)
Remember Hyoutei
Kagami no Naka no Ore
Pressure
Road
Onna no Ko to Chuu
(possibly the Davide+Bane song? It sounded slightly familiar, but I'm not sure if it was all the same or only partially)
Power is the Best XDDDDD
Ummm Rokkaku's theme song, whose name I've forgotten! <--holy shit did I like the dance though XD I don't remember it being so uh full of hip action 8D
Acrobatics and Genius was definitely in there to some degree--but it MAY have been combined partly with a new song? When it came up I didn't really recognize it at first til it got to the chorus.

There were probably more buuuuut I've forgotten XD Hit me up in the comments if you're curious as to whether or not a song was saved.

It's finally time for the Tokyo Return shows! I missed seeing it the first time around because opening night was my flight back to the US for Christmas, but it's finally back in Tokyo and I'm off to see it tonight. I don't think I ever even watched it the whole way through during the first season, so it'll be nice having everything be really new, but...the REASON I didn't watch it really was because I don't care about Rokkaku XD;;; legit only going for GP and Hyoutei :3

My washer-dryer is getting delivered in a week though! Crossing my fingers the installation goes smoothly, cause dnw to have to figure out what hose I need to buy to get everything working correctly :| I need to do as much laundry as possible before this Saturday though, just in case, as that's when my current washer (crappy rental one) is being removed. Wish me luck XD; Also need to clean my room like a madwoman...

This weekend is the No.6 doujinshi event 'Project 6' and I'm stoked XD I also need to use the time to organize my doujinshi and get rid of ones I don't need. I think I'm going to just go with a "PLEASE TAKE THESE OFF MY HANDS" approach and sell them in bulk for shipping + a little extra to cover the effort, because I really need to get rid of them XD; But I do want them to go to people who can't get them easily over here, so I'm avoiding taking a suitcase to Kbooks or something. Ah the life of a fangirl.

Sooo I'm on here, posting for the first time in, like, weeks, because tumblr is down, and apparently that's where all my life is right now XD;

Relatively little has really happened, but I did make a humongoid purchase in a new washer and dryer set, which is...not here yet XD and probably won't be for a couple more weeks at least but hnnngggg I WANT IT NOW. Fluffy warm clothes, come to me ;~;

My mother and grandmother are coming to visit me here in May, and already I'm looking around my room thinking NOT how I'll need to scrub it stem to stern when they come, but rather, "fuuuuck how am I gonna hide all my boyporn :|" Priorities, I have them.

Speaking of boyporn, our group is a scanlating machine! According to mangaupdates we're releasing once every 1.8 days right now XD; amyused is a scanning goddess, and the rest of us are simple slaves cleaning and translating and editing all the time :| Labor of love this is, verily so.

I'm sorely feeling the loss of Megaupload still and really am...just kinda pissed it came to this :P I'm also wondering how to go about shutting down my tracker (and reminding myself I need to make an announcement and set a deadline), so there's that. Everything just kind of feels like a matter of time :/ Blargh.

Theatre scene has been quiet lately--not so much for my lack of interest but because there's just nothing interesting that any of my guys are appearing in. I've got a ticket to TeniMyu next week, then Shounen Hollywood in March, and that's it :/ Everyone's doing either dramas or stuff with no one I've ever heard of, and I need at least a few guys to go see something! I miss having a play every week dammit :(

In other news, it's cold everywhere. In the office, at home, on the trains. I love winter--but only if I get to be inside and warm and cozy while it happens :P However, I recently discovered I have all the ingredients for black-eyed-peas and sweet cornbread and have made this delicious meal twice now, YUM!
