For today's blog post, I will be giving my very first review. If you play Mystic Messenger, you've most likely heard 707 talk about Honey Buddha Chips. Although the name used in the game is fabricated, they are based on real chips called Honey Butter Chips. These chips are actually very popular in Korea and Japan. However, they are actually a bit harder to find here in America. Nevertheless, I managed to get a bag of them from Amazon. So, that's what I'll be reviewing with this post. Now onto the reviewing part! Although Honey Butter Chips sound like a strange flavor combination, they are actually very good! The chips taste a lot like honey, but they don't taste like honey exclusively. Even though they are good on their own, they do taste a lot better with Dr.Pepper too. The taste itself is rather hard to explain, but the chips do taste really good! I would also like to recommend eating them with Dr.Pepper, especially if you want to know exactly what 707 was so addicted to!

I would also like to add that this is just my opinion on the chips. If you try them yourself and don't like them, I'm sorry! I just personally like them.

If you've been in the Anime and manga community for a while (or even if you're new to it), you've most likely heard an Anime or manga character be called a "trap". But, what is a trap exactly? Well, that's what this post is here to tell you! Simply put, a trap is a character that looks very convincingly like the opposite gender. Although it is mostly used to refer to boys, it is also occasionally used for girls as well. A trap will usually dress like the opposite gender as well. Unfortunately (for this blog post, not for me), I have not seen more than one or two Anime shows with a trap in it. So, I will use Ciel Phantomhive from Black Butler as an example for this. Enjoy!

As a bonus, here's a picture of what Ciel normally looks like.

 

As a Yokai Watch fan myself, I am always eagerly awaiting new content, especially for the Anime. However, it's also hard to have to wait for it to come to America, since I prefer the English dubbed versions. Currently, there are 2 seasons of the Anime and one of the movies available in English. But, this can be rather discouraging. Especially since there are currently 2 seasons of the show, and 3 movies for it in Japan. Although that doesn't seem like a huge difference, the two seasons we have in America were actually just one season in Japan. Now I understand that it takes time to dub the episodes and movies, but the second Yokai Watch movie came out over a year ago. Unfortunately, all we can do is wait for Disney XD to dub and release the episodes and movies themselves. Hopefully we'll get new episodes, or maybe even the second movie, soon!

I know I have done multiple blog posts about Yokai before, most of which were from the show Yokai Watch. However, I have not yet made a post about what a Yokai is. So, that's what today's post will be about. To start with, Yokai are beings that come from Japanese folklore. There are a lot of different types of Yokai, and they can be supernatural monsters, demons, or spirits. Yokai can also appear to be humanoid beings, like a Yuki Onna or an Ame Onna. But, not all of them are like this. There are also some animal type Yokai as well, like the Nekomata (a two-tailed cat Yokai) or the Ogama (a toad Yokai). There can even be Yokai that were once items, such as the Karakasa Obake (a Yokai that was once a parasol). Some Yokai are harmless as well, and some can even bring good luck. But, other Yokai can be quite mischievous or even dangerous. There are more facts about Yokai I could list here, but the information I gave above is pretty much the basic knowledge about what a Yokai is, so I'll end it here. I hope this post helps you guys understand Yokai better!

The blog post for today is about Banette from Pokémon. Banette is a ghost type Pokémon, and it evolves from Shuppet. It can also temporarily turn into Mega Banette. This Pokémon was originally nothing more than a plush doll. But after it was thrown away, cursed energy caused it to turn into a Pokémon. It also holds a grudge against the child who disowned it. Banette can generate energy for laying strong curses as well. It does this by sticking pins into its body. If Banette ever opened its mouth, all of its cursed energy would escape. However, some say that it will turn back into a plush doll if it is treated nicely.

Since I talked about a creepy new Pokémon Sun And Moon Pokedex entry for a Pokémon from a previous generation for yesterday's post, I will be talking about a creepy Pokedex entry for an Alolan Pokémon for today's post. That Pokémon will be Shiinotic. This Pokémon looks pretty cute and harmless, but the Pokedex entries for it prove otherwise. The first entry for it is creepy enough, since it says "Forests where Shiinotic live are treacherous at night. People confused by its strange lights can never find their way home again.". But if that wasn't creepy enough for you, the second Pokedex entry is even creepier as it states "It emits flickering spores that cause drowsiness. When its prey succumb to sleep, this Pokémon feeds on them by sucking in their energy.". So although this Pokémon looks pretty harmless, I wouldn't want to run into it! Especially not at night!

As you guys may know, some of the new Pokedex entries in Pokémon Sun And Moon are rather dark. However, this doesn't just apply to the Alolan Pokémon, since some of the Pokémon from other Pokémon generations also got a creepy new Pokedex entry. So for today's blog post, I will be talking about one of the Pokémon that got a new Pokedex entry. That Pokémon is Drifloon. In previous Pokémon games, it was hinted at the fact that children may go missing if they hold onto it. But, it never explained why they went missing. Well, we got the answer to that unasked question in Pokémon Sun And Moon. Its new entry states "Stories go that it grabs the hands of small children and drags them away to the afterlife. It dislikes heavy children". As a bonus, if for some reason you ever wondered what would happen if a Drifloon popped, we also got the answer to that question with the other Pokémon Sun And Moon Pokedex entry. That entry says "If for some reason its body bursts, its soul spills out with a screaming sound". So there you have it, now you know the answers to two questions you may or may not have been wondering about. You're welcome.

It's Thanksgiving, and you know what that means! Another special blog post for the holiday! But, there's a small catch. Since Thanksgiving is an American holiday, there aren't really an Anime episodes or movies that include it. So, here are some Anime Thanksgiving Day pictures instead. Enjoy! Happy Thanksgiving!

I would also like to say once again that none of these pictures I use are mine, I usually find them through Google or other sources. So if the original artist or owner of a picture I use finds this, I'm not trying to steal your art! I only use it because I like it! Thank you!

 

 

 

Today's blog post will be about the show Bananya. Bananya is a series of shorts that are centered around cats that live in bananas called Bananyas. The show follows them while they go about their daily lives. It's a rather laid back show, and it uses a very cute art style. (At least it does in my opinion.) At the end of each episode, the narrator talks about one of the Bananyas from the show. There are currently 12 different Bananyas. Their names are Bananya, Tabby Bananya, Bananyako, Black Bananya, Long-Haired Bananya, Mackerel Bananya, Daddy Bananya, Baby Bananya, Calico Bananya, and Bananya Bunch (which are actually three Bananyas). This show is only available on Crunchyroll, and it is also only English subbed as of right now. Although cats living in bananas seems like a strange concept, the show is actually a rather cute show to watch. I would also like to recommend this show, since it's quite fun to watch. Besides, the episodes are only a few minutes long each, so they don't take up a lot of time!

Plus, look at how cute these little guys are!

A few months ago, it was revealed that there are actually three different Lycanroc forms in Pokémon Sun and Moon. These forms are the Midday form, the Midnight form, and the recently revealed Dusk form. So for today's blog post, I will be discussing the possibility of a fourth Lycanroc form. Since there are forms for almost every other part of the day now, I think there is a high chance of there being a possible Dawn form of Lycanroc. Also, since the Dusk form looks more like the Midday form, the Dawn form would most likely look more like the Midnight form. Since only the Dusk form has been revealed so far, a Dawn form of Lycanroc would most likely have to be added to the games later. Of course, it would be easier to simply reveal it in the Anime first. I suppose this can count as my first theory on this blog, so please feel free to leave a comment and tell me your thoughts on this topic. I would love to know what you guys think of it!

Since yesterday's blog post was about the Vocaloid ZeeU, today's blog post will be about the Vocaloid SeeU. SeeU is a Korean Vocaloid that is distributed by SBS A&T Co., Ltd.. She is also a bilingual Vocaloid who can sing in both Korean and Japanese. She is 17 years old, and she weighs 98 pounds. She is also 5 feet 3 inches tall. However, she doesn't have an official personality. She also isn't quite as popular as some of the other Vocaloids are. If you want to hear a song sung by SeeU, here's a link for one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F62PnUmrzNA

Since I also included a picture of ZeeU in yesterday's post, here is a picture of SeeU for today's post:

The blog post for today will be about the Vocaloid ZeeU. ZeeU is the official genderbend of the Vocaloid SeeU. He was even officially recognized by SBS A&T Co., LTD. Although there was already a genderbend of SeeU named SeeWoo (or USee), ZeeU is the official one. But, he does not seem to have an official personality, age, weight, or height. He also currently doesn't have an official voicebank. However, he does still have his own voice, which is derived from SeeU's voice. If you would like to hear a song sung by ZeeU, here is a link for one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlQ9ogA95a8

As an added bonus, I have also included a picture of ZeeU. Enjoy!

Today's blog post will be about the RFA party in Mystic Messenger. The RFA party is one of the most important parts of a route. It happens at the very end of a route, and it is the last event for a route. The party also takes place as a visual novel. Although the events that take place at the party differ depending on which route it is, the route usually ends with the MC attending the party. The e-mails sent and received before the party will determine which guests end up attending it. After the party is completed, the route will be over. This clears the messages and phone calls so the player can choose a different route. However, the messages will be moved to the history section on the main screen. After the party, the After Ending for that route will be unlocked. Although the chat room before the party has to be completed before the party starts, the actual party itself can be completed at any point in time after it starts at noon.

Today's blog post will be about the show Blood Lad. Blood Lad is a ten episode Anime that is based on the manga of the same name. The show centers around a vampire named Staz Charlie Blood. However, he would rather watch Anime, read manga, and play video games all day, despite being the leader of his territory. When a Japanese girl named Fuyumi Yanagi somehow wanders into the Demon World, Staz is thrilled to meet a human from the place where his favorite things came from! But, this is short-lived, as she is killed by a monster not long after her arrival! This ended up turning her into a ghost. So, Staz vows to bring her back to life. This show is a comedy show with some action mixed in as well. Even though it only lasted for one season, I would still recommend this show. It's actually a good Anime!

One of the most popular pairings for Vocaloid songs are Rin and Len Kagamine. This is because their voices match nicely, and because they were released together. So, for today's blog post, I will be listing five songs sung by both Rin and Len Kagamine, along with the links for each song. Now then, onto the listing part!

1.) Love-Hate

Hey hey, it's blog post time! For today's post I will be talking about Anime openings and theme songs. The openings and theme songs are actually quite important to the show, since it basically sets the whole mood for the show. Some Anime have multiple openings that change after a season or story arc ends, like with Naruto Shippuden and Fairy Tail. But, other Anime shows only have one theme song because of how short the series is. Nonetheless, the opening and song still somehow sets the mood and story for the show in one way or another. Some openings are also more well-known, such as the Attack On Titan and Evangelion theme songs. This ends up making them easily recognizable, even to people who don't watch the show.

Today's blog post will be about the four panel comics from the book Deathnote 13: How To Read. The four panel comics are a small section in the book, and they are only there for comedic purposes. Each one also follows its own story, so it doesn't effect the other ones. There are four of these comics, and each one has three sections. Before these comics, there are also character introductions for Light Yagami, L, Misa Amane, and Ryuk. This is because their personalities in these comics are a bit different from their personalities in the original Anime and manga series. If you want to know what the character introductions for them are, I will include them below.

Light: The chosen brainiac with a knack for funny comments. His serious demeanor makes him the butt of jokes.

L: Holder of the world's greatest mind and the powerful ability to act like a fool. It's like he was born to be mocked.

Misa: Along with Sayu, one of the two heroines of our story. Check out her sexiness, which has received a power boost compared to the main series.

Ryuk: A weird guy with a passion for apples. He may be the character that's least different from his series version.

If you haven't noticed, Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka often sing songs together. This is most likely because their voices match up so well. So, here are five songs sung by Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka, along with the links for each one. Here we go!

1.) World's End Dancehall

Today's blog post is about guests in the Mystic Messenger app. Guests are a very important part of the game, and it's important to try to get as many guests as possible to attend the party on the last day of the route. To get a guest to attend the party, you must first respond correctly to all of their e-mails. If an e-mail isn't answered correctly, the guest may not attend the party. The guest will also only attend the party if the e-mail says completed on it. If the guest attends the party, their information will be available in the guest list. It will also have an RFA comment available with the information, which also includes an hourglass if you look at it. Some of the guests are only available in certain routes as well.

As you may know, Mitchie M is a well-known artist in the Vocaloid community. There are even multiple Mitchie M songs in the Project Diva games! So, today's post will be a list of five of my favorite Mitchie M songs, along with their links. Here we go!

1.) Viva Happy by Hatsune Miku
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiUjG9fF3zw

2.) Ageage Again by Hatsune Miku

*Bonus Song*

Ohedo Julia-Night by Hatsune Miku and Kaito
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3yyYYLyVzw

Why was Kagerou Daze the only song without English subtitles in Project Diva F 2nd? Well, I'm here to answer that question! As you may know, Project Diva F 2nd was rated T for Teen. This is because of songs like Sweet Devil that have "suggestive themes", and because of things like the sake set which counts as an alcohol reference. Because of this, Kagerou Daze wasn't given English subtitles to more or less "censor" the song so the rating didn't get changed to a higher one. This happened because the song has mild gore references as it states how the person gets killed every time they have to restart the day, mentioning things like blood splattering and such. It's still a good song, though. So if you want to hear the song Kagerou Daze (which is by Hatsune Miku), here is a link for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNGItBf5ReE

Today's blog post will be about Yokai powers from the show Yokai Watch. If you've watched the show Yokai Watch, I can almost guarantee that you know what Yokai powers are. But, I'm still going to make this post anyways for the people who don't know. Anyways, on with the post! Each Yokai has a different Yokai power. These powers are also unique to that Yokai. Much like how Hungramps can make people hungry, or how Blazion can make people get excited and competitive over everything. But, certain Yokai can also neutralize another Yokai's power if their power cancels it out. This can be seen with Yokai like Happierre and Dismarelda, and Yokai like Drizzelda and Ray O' Light. Yokai can use this power to inspirit one person, or they can use it to inspirit a place. It all depends on what type of power that Yokai has.

For yesterday's blog post, I made a full list of all of the available songs in Project Diva X. So for today's blog post I will be giving my thoughts on the song list, more or less. As you may have noticed, the majority of the songs in Project Diva X were either Hatsune Miku songs, or she was included in the song. Even the available extra songs that could be purchased for the game were simply more Miku songs. So, why are there so many Miku songs? Although Hatsune Miku is very popular, the other Vocaloids in Project Diva are also very popular. Even though some people may argue that the game is called Hatsune Miku Project Diva X, that is most likely only because she is the most well-known Vocaloid and is therefor easier to find. Although the other Vocaloids didn't get nearly as many songs as Miku in the other Project Diva games as well, they still got a number of songs for themselves. Two of the Vocaloids in Project Diva X (Meiko and Kaito) didn't even get a solo song like the others! As a Kaito fan myself, I was very disappointed to find that he only appeared in two of the songs. Neither of which were a solo song, and only one of which featured him as the lead. I know that Miku is basically the mascot for Crypton Future Media, and Vocaloids in general, but fans of the other Vocaloids aren't going to want to play a game that is practically centered around only her. Other than this, I do think that Project Diva X is a good game, and I have played it myself. I would also still recommend it for Vocaloid fans, too. I am just disappointed to see Hatsune Miku get most of the songs in the game.

For today's blog post, I will be listing each of the songs from the game Project Diva X. I will also be including which cloud the songs are from. Now then, on with the post!

Are the Vocaloids Rin and Len Kagamine twins? Well, some Vocaloid fans say they are, and some say they aren't. Even though I consider them to be twins, that doesn't mean they are. This is because they have never been officially announced as twins. However, they do look alike (aside from their different genders). They also have the same number, the same last name, and they were released together. Despite this, people still say that they are not twins, and that they are actually just mirror images of each other. Although I personally think they are twins, I don't mind if other people think they aren't. So, I guess it just depends on what you yourself think they are. Besides, there are a lot of great songs that came from people thinking of them as not being brother and sister!

Today's blog post will be about Elizabeth 3rd from the Mystic Messenger app. Yes, Elizabeth 3rd is Jumin's cat. But, she's still an important part of the game. Kind of. Anyways, on with the post! As I said before, Elizabeth 3rd is Jumin's cat, and he loves her very much. The only time Jumin doesn't think about only his cat (or his work) is when the player is on his route. 707 also likes Elizabeth 3rd very much, and he often shortens her name to just Elly. However, Jumin doesn't let Seven see her because he claims that he abuses her. Despite this, Elizabeth 3rd herself rarely appears in the game. Aside from pictures, Jumin's route, and conversations about her, that is. For no reason whatsoever (other than to show you what she looks like), I have also included a picture of Elizabeth 3rd down below. So, enjoy!

Well, it's time once again for a new blog post! For today's post, I will be talking about Nico Nico Douga. What is Nico Nico Douga you may ask? Well, if you're part of the Vocaloid community, you've most likely heard of it before. Nico Nico Douga is a popular Japanese website where people can upload their Vocaloid songs. Although it's not just for Vocaloid songs, it's still very popular within the Vocaloid community. There are thousands to millions of Vocaloid songs uploaded on Nico Nico Douga, too. There are even some songs for hard to find Vocaloids, like the Vocaloid band Ice Mountain. If you would like to check this website out yourself, here is a link to the Vocaloid page for it: http://ex.nicovideo.jp/vocaloid

For today's blog post, I will be discussing a possible Unknown route for Mystic Messenger. Although people were skeptical of an Unknown route happening before, there is now hope for the Mystic Messenger fans because of the recently added V route. But the question now is if Unknown should get his own route. As many fans know, Unknown is the character with the least interactions with the MC in the game. I'm sure there are more interactions with him with the added V route. But I'm not counting that as of right now, since I'm trying to make a point. Although Unknown is the main antagonist, there are still a lot of people who like him. Even though he's not personally my favorite character, I would still like to see what a route with him would be like. I also think a route with him would be very interesting, since the MC would get more interactions with him, and because they would get to see his side of the story. If you guys have any thoughts on this topic that you would like to add, feel free to leave a comment on this post!

For today's blog post I will be listing my personal top ten favorite Yokai from Yokai Watch as of right now. Here we go!
