yo everyone^^ welcome back to my blog to read on what i have to say for today^^ before you read on, i just wanna say ARIGATO GOZAIMASU NE~ haha^^ thanks for all the support you guys show by revisiting my blog again and again^^
OK! lets begin. XD...
i know its not a very good way to start a blog post, but i just wanna rant about this tiny little matter im facing, just to get it off my chest ^^"...well, its the same old parent-child problem again, as usual. My mom in particular. Bloody hell she just loves to torture me because im the eldest son, and worst yet, she loves to make me look bad because i am studying in Animation course...according to her view, the thing im studying is complete rubbish and she hates it to the core. She even throws out my stuff for one reason "i dont like it"...Fuck leh i always bomb the house when that happens...XD...but leh, she really has a problem with me lo, coz like, few years ago she keep pestering me say im useless piece of junk dunno how to earn money and stuff...now that i can earn a bit of money on my own while studying, she come and say im acting very "keh-si" le, and then keep asking me to get lost and find my own house.
she mental de...i dun even want to talk about the physical abuse i have to go through *hides*
....that felt better! haha XD...ok...now to the more serious stuff...the rest of my blog post^^
...here is my MapleStory character..just randomly appearing XD..Lately, ive been receiving a lot of requests to start blogging about anime and the reviews and stuff like that...at first it was just one or two people asking me, but as time went on more and more people came to me and said "You should blog more about anime and stuff, i wanna see!"...haha...i cant ignore that request le since so many people asking, so here goes :
today's featured Anime is..... iDolmaster : Xenoglossia...... ~~!!!
tada~! here is the opening shot of the anime ...
its done by Studio Sunrise! any anime lover who has a few years of anime watching experience under his/her belt would definitely agree that any mecha-based anime that is produced by either Bandai,Sunrise or Emotion (basically they are all linked anyway) is 100% pure quality. Why? Because,my dear friends, giant anime masterpieces like the Gundam series are products of Sunrise^^ simple theory isnt it?
but of course, one can argue that you cant judge a book by its cover alone. true, so lets look further into this anime :
ah! girls added in with mecha! isnt that what we all love??? Admit it! Over the years mecha animes that include a bunch of girls have ever since been popular, even till today^^ For example, Vandread..Martian Successor Nadesico...Rimuiro Senkitan...Sky Girls ( i'll be doing a review of this anime soon^^) and many more...so that is another contributing factor to why iDolmaster is worth watching~
and if you look at the above picture, you'd see welcoming faces right??? the character art is cute, simple and most important of all, the characters are schoolgirls *drools*~~
random screenshot from the anime :
love the blend of colours!!! don't you?....
and of course, here is a snap of the opening scene:
very typical opening theme that most studios use these days, a group photo!!! why do i say that? ...ano ne...if any of you havent noticed...this shot is exactly similiar to Animes like for example : Air Gear.... dont believe me? go check out the opening for Air Gear and you'll see what i mean^^
and not forgetting, do you notice the penguin suit??? i dont know if Sunrise is trying to hint us that this anime might somehow have links and ties with the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion or not...because ne...that penguin design has similiarities with the penguin that appears in EVA...hmmm...now that is something to wonder about isnt it? XD
hahaha...enough with the comments, now i guess i'd better do a little introduction to the storyline of iDolmaster...
アイドルマスター XENOGLOSSIA , or also known as iDolmaster Xenoglossia (in english...duh), has a very simple yet interestingly refreshing storyline.
The show centers around iDol mechas and shows the ten prospective young Japanese schoolgirls as idols and as fighter pilots of those robots
Logically, as one can tell from the name of the anime, the mecha are of course reffered to as iDol, and of course the pilots (young girls) are the iDolmasters...very cheesy way of naming it but in a way its very cool^^
well, in the anime, Haruka Amami is the main character they focus on...although initially underconfident with herself,Haruka by surprise passes an audition to be a Japanese singing idol and she is sent to Tokyo to begin her all-star singing career...but what she doesn't know is that the agency that recruited her is actually a front for big task force which uses robots to save the Earth from falling pieces of the moon, or Lost Artemis...and as the story develops, characters like Yukiho Hagiwara and Iori Minase who also audition and want to be idols are also taken by the same task force to be iDolmasters.
haha, interesting isnt it? although that may be so, some of you might be confused so as to what are the several terms they use throughout the progression of the anime..so i guess i'll help you guys out a bit^^
iDol : these are gigantic machines that the human forces (Mondenkind) use to stop and destroy pieces of falling moon, since in the story, the moon was destroyed 107 years ago in an event they call "The Lost Artemis"..iDols can only be piloted by special young ladies as you can probably tell, and are made of a special silicon base material found from fallen fragments of the moon.
iDol names from Modenkind :
Prometheus-1 Imber
...piloted by Haruka Amami. Colors are : white and blue (episode 1-7), white and pink (episode 8 onwards)...name originating from the term Mare Imbrium.
Prometheus-2 Nebula
...piloted by Makoto Kikuchi and Iori Minase. colour is yellow and orange respectively...name originating from the term Palus Neburalem.
Prometheus-4 Tempestas
...piloted by Mami Futami. Colour is red...name origin unknown.
iDol names from Turiavita :
Prometheus-3 Nubilim
...piloted by Chihiya Kisaragi. Colour is black and red...name originating from the term Mare Nubium.
Prometheus-5 Hiems
...piloted by Makoto Kikuchi. Colour is white and yellow...name originating from the term Mare Hiemis.
Epimetheus-1 "Epi-Chan"
...piloted by RIFFA. colour is blue.
other related terms :
Lost Artemis - this is the event 107 years before the story of iDolmaster, where the moon is destroyed and fragments of the moon drop to earth killing more than 1/4 of the population.
Drops - the term used in the anime to symbolize asteroid chunks (actually fragmented pieces) of the moon. through the anime, they refer to these drops as "Mint Drops" or "Lemon Drops" according to the size of the asteroid piece. Mondenkind's job is to take care of any drops that are bigger in size than the Lemon-class drops. As such, only Japan has iDols.
.....erm...that was the first time i have done such a critical review of any anime here on my blog..so erm..hahahaha...if there is any mistakes please dont flame me ^^"
i guess thats it for today's little blogpost...stay tuned for tomorow's ... XP
