Princess Mononoke

Hello Everyone, its rather late today and I just got back home from school. SUPEER long day on thursdays, lucky me I play music for 1,5 of those hours at least.

Yesterday I watched another movie of Hayao Miyazaki and you've probably all watched this one already, but if not, lucky you I'm writing about it todaaay :D Princess Mononoke is what I guess people call a classic and I understand it very well indeed. I've watched some of his movies and I must say I love all of them! Spirited Away is one of my favourite movies of all time. This one I did'nt think that highly of though since it's rather old (1997 maybe not..?) and I thought the quality if I found it online would be really bad. When I actually found it, it was dubbed aswell..(haaate dubbed anime!!!), however I just thought to myself that I have to endure it anyway and found out what everyone's talking about! Surprisingly enough the dub was'nt that bad :O Rather good I would even say it surprised me. If you've ever heard Sailor Moon dubbed.....you'll hate dubbed anime forever, but I guess Hayao Miyazaki gets good actors even in english since he's so good.

Princess Mononoke started very well and the story development is really interesting aswell. The creativity of Miyazaki's movies amaze me everytime, since everything is just so beautiful and colorfull and aah amazing! The music was REALLY good too! Like Hollywood fantasy movies or Harry Potter but asian and just EPIC xD the music made probably 20% of the movie. But the story is very good too since there is suspense aswell as the other stuff you love in movies and it's very unpredictable. One thing that was interesting is also that the maincharacter or really all the characters in the story, except maybe four or five are either good or bad, even if some have a better moral than others. That made the plot very interesting and confusing, since you never knew who to cheer for xD ( I always do that when I watch movies ) However you would always agree with the maincharacter Ashitaka, cause he's so pure and just good T__T

I LOVED the movie :D as much as I've loved the others. In comparison to for example Ponya this felt a bit like it was made to be watched by people with the age of... made thirteen and up, like Spirited Away I would say and I liked that. The whole movie is almost hand drawn :O WATCH IT and you'll realise how fucked up that feels. It's astonishing what they do in Japan o.O

Liar Game

Hello :D It's Summer.. kind of.. here in Sweden now, I LOOOVE it!A couple of days ago i started watching this tv serie, and I was really surprised about how incredible good it is. Its... amazing better than Zettai Kareshi and Hana Yori Dango to be honest. I have'nt watched so many dramas but this is the best so far I think. Liar Game has a very interesting theme and I love the two main characters Akiyama and Nao. Nao is idiotically honest and Akiyama is a swindler genius super duo and on top of that Akiyama is super hot ;D the Drama is originally a manga and you can read it here. It's written by Kaitani Shinobu its ongoing I think and for the moment 128 chapters long. I think the tv drama is a bit different form the manga. I will probably write something about the manga in the future since I plan to read it too. The tv drama is 2 seasons long and 20 episodes al together. there is Also a movie :D Liar game: The Final Stage.About Tv Drama Kanzaki Nao is an honest college student who receives a hundred million yen one day, along with a card saying she has been chosen to take part in the "Liar Game".

Naruto Shippuden 3: Inheritors of the will of fire

Sorry I have'nt been that motivated to blog right now with school and all but I will try to post something more often dear readers!!
(????readers we can discuss about that, but whatever...):D

I've whatched the latest Naruto Shippuden Movie and I must say I enjoyed it a lot. It was better than the other movies and Rock Lee was in it! Rock Lee has been absent for the whole Shippuden anime and Gai too WHY?? I dont know.. but it sucks cause he's totally super awesome. I love the Rock Lee spirit! he's just awesome. However normally I don't like the Naruto movies that much mostly because of the plot who has nothing to do with the anime or manga, but the plot this time was kind of nice. I liked the whole " every ninja in the naruto generation fighting together", normally you just see some of them, but this time everyone was in the movie. Naruto Shippuden 3: Inheritors of the will of fire was very nice! This summer the next movie is realesed in Japan Naruto Shippuden 4: The Lost Tower, then Naruto will travel in time and see a lot of his fathers past (Narutos father= Namikaze Minato =4th Hokage). It sounds really fucked up to be honest, but I like the history of Konoha so far so there will probably be some interesting things in it. I would like to see the kyuubi attacking konoha etc sometime.AboutNinjas with bloodline limits begin disappearing in all the countries and blame points toward the fire nation. By Tsunade's order, Kakashi is sacrificed to prevent an all out war. After inheriting charms left by Kakashi, Naruto fights through friends and foes to prevent his death while changing the minds of those who've inherited the will of fire.

Btw you must watch the anime right now the Pein final battle is near 8D

Naruto Fact

Hello, Today I thought I would have a different post,so why not give you some fact about Naruto as a serie? It's been ongoing for more than 10 years now, pretty amazing I think. The creator is Masashi Kishimoto. Actually Naruto began as a one shot serie Kishimoto published in a shonen magazine. Good response for the one shot serie inspired Kishimoto to create Naruto. Weekly Shōnen Jump started publishing Kishimotos serie 1999 and have been since then. Weekly Shōnen Jump is an shōnen manga anthology magazine that's being realesed every week in Japan. The chapters that's being realesed in the anthology is every three or two months realesed as comics (Every new volume of Naruto). So far 50 volumes of the Naruto serie has been realesed.Cover of the first Naruto Comic

The serie started airing as an anime in 2002 and have been since then, sometimes with fillers, to not get to close to the manga I think. I hate the Naruto fillers.
The first part of the anime is 220 episodes long and after that came Naruto Shippuden that's ongoing. I LOVE Naruto Shippuden, I think it's better than the first part, but maybe because their better at everything then? I dono. To me it feels like the first 220 was just to build up the plot to shippuden.Naruto Shippuden

A couple of movies have been made based on the story of Naruto too, but they are not related in any way to thee series you can say. They have an indipendent plot based on the manga and there are 3 movies that you can say belongs to the first part of Naruto and 3 Shippuden movies. I like them all alot, the first 3 are very cute and the shippuden movies a bit more serious but still very good, I've only seen two of them though. The latest movie premiered in August 2009. I've read that another one is coming this summer but it's not fact yet what I know.

Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow
Naruto the Movie 2: Legend of the Stone of Gelel
Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom

Hana Yori Dango, Boys Before Flowers

Ohayo People! Long time no see!
This week we have easter holiday (I guess you say so) in sweden, so I've been very bored and watched japanese tv dramas and read manga all the time. I seriously love holidays and hate school, but whatever.

Today I will tell you about this awesome tv drama Hana Yori Dango (Boys before Flowers) I've been watching. It's originally a manga and this particular manga is quite interesting because its been adapted to 3 different tv dramas and an anime and 2 movies, one live action and one anime. I've been watching the japanese drama and if you want to read more about the others you can cheek it out here on wikipedia (I LOVE wikipedia.) the japanese Drama is 20 episodes and 2 seasons, there is also a movie after that as I will watch today and probably post something about later.The Manga is probably supernice since the tv drama is. I recommend you to read the manga first if you wan't to read it and watch the serie too. I think their very similar and it's not so fun to read a manga if already know the whole plot, then it's more interesting to watch a manga you've read made into anime or live action. if you're interested in reading the manga you can read it here. I will watch the korean version of this tv drama too that's being broadcast right now in korea. I think it's kind of the same but this drama is so good so I'll watch that one too.About the Japanese Tv DramaMakino Tsukushi is the only poor student at Eitoku Gakuen, the school of the ridiculously rich and privileged that is ruled by Flower 4 or F4, a group of four boys who come from extremely powerful families: Domyoji Tsukasa, the leader and heir of the Domyoji World Finance Group; Hanazawa Rui, the introverted son of a large company; Nishikado Sojiro, a player who is the heir of a tea ceremony school; and Mimasaka Akira, a madam killer with ties to the underground. If a student gets on the F4?s bad side, he/she gets a red notice and is bullied and driven out of school. Makino hopes to pass her days quietly-- without drawing any attention to herself-- but one day, she stands up to Domyoji in defense of her friend. The next day, Makino gets the dreaded red notice. Even though she is harassed, Makino decides to keep going to school because she is a ?tough weed?. She declares war right back on the F4. Her resolve gets the attention of her crush Hanazawa Rui and oddly enough, rouses romantic feelings in her worst enemy, Domyoji Tsukasa.Japenese Drama

If you want to look at the first season of the japanese drama you can watch it here ( you can find the next season and the movie here too).

About the Korean Tv DramaJan Di is an average girl whose family owns a dry cleaning store located near the luxurious and well known Shin Hwa College. Jan Di meets the four richest and most spoiled boys known as the F4. After saving a boy from jumping off the roof of Shinhwa High School, she is admitted into the school on a swimming scholarship. Jan Di tries to avoid confrontation with the F4 at all cost because she knows what happens to those that stand against them. However, when Jan Di's friend, Oh Min Ji, accidentally gets ice cream on the leader of the F4's shoes, she's forced to declare war on the leader of the F4, Goo Joon Pyo.Korean Drama

Death Note

I suppose you already have seen or read this manga/anime, and that you loved it, if not I will give you a brief summary about its contents here so you can join the death Note lovers club. You have probably already heard of it before but I guess its my duty to recommend it anyway. It's a manga and a anime as you already know and its one of the best. I have'nt read the manga but seen the whole anime and its really good. The story is well planned and well Death Note is one of the most exciting animes I've seen. You cant stop watching. Its deffinetly one of my favourite animes of all time. The story has also been made into film and I've een the first one and its good too. I recommend you though if you're totally unfamiliar with Death Note to watch and read them in this order, manga-anime-movie cause then you wont be bored with either of them. Its always fun to see a manga you've read made into anime, and its always fun to see an anime you've seen into a film. The characters are really nice, and if L was a real life human I would be so into him. You can read the manga here, and search the internet for the anime. Its written by Obha Tsugumi and drawed by Obata Takeshi. I hate dubbed anime but this trailer was the best so.
About the MangaLight Yagami is an ace student with great prospects--and he's bored out of his mind. But all that changes when he finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by a rogue Shinigami death god. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and now Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil. But when criminals begin dropping dead, the authorities send the legendary detective L to track down the killer. With L hot on his heels, will Light lose sight of his noble goal... or his life?
