Happy Birthday Nozomi Sasaki

Late as it is, I still want to extend my well wishes to Nozomi Sasaki who celebrated her 22nd birthday last February 8th. May she have a successful career and good health.

Speaking of well wishes, it’s Chinese New Year this Sunday so A happy Chinese New Year to everyone! 恭喜发财!

To celebrate both these wonderful occasions, here’s what is my first idol feature here on me blog.

Take it away Nozomi-chan! (My doesn’t she look stunning in that red cheongsam.)

Tanjoubi Omedetto, Nozomin!

Save Nu107 FM!!!

HungerReceived this bit of news on my mail box.  And as such, this is rather disheartening.  Where the airwaves are populated by auto-tuned mainstream pop music, and even the illiterate can coarsely sing along to the most played out latest K-pop single; perhaps one of the few local FM stations that has managed to hold on to it’s identity and not sell out to ratings wars, NU107 is at the throes of having its identity be erased and be turned into nothing more than just another FM station riding the airwaves of pop.

========================

Save Nu107 FM’s rock music-oriented programming format!!! Continue reading

Darth Vader Stress Relief

And so, aside from terrorizing anime conventions and harassing maids at cosplay cafe’s, Lord Vader shows yet again how he maintains an otherwise calm demeanor despite force choking the occasional Imperial admiral or two. Continue reading

Nozomi Sasaki debut single

As some of you may have  already caught, doe-eyed gravure idol of uber-cuteness Nozomi Sasaki has come out with her debut single. And by my reckoning, well.. (long pause) she’s still cute and she’s still coming out with photo books. Three cheers for that.

2010July15 – Thigh High Thursday

Prophet of Zettai Ryouiki: Tohsaka Rin – Fate/Stay Night

Well with introductions out of the way, let me give you a sampler of what’s been covered previously on my Thigh High Thursday posts.  While they may not have been the originators, Anime/Manga most certainly propagated, if not started, the trend. There’s the usual suspects, namely the icons of Zettai Ryouiki.

Probably one character who brought much of the attention Thigh high fashion is enjoying these days is “Fate/Stay Night’s” Tohsaka Rin.  And along with her deadly Zettai Ryouiki, she may have also brought to the spotlight Twin-tail hair styles and made tsundere behaviour highly desirable.  A triple-hit “moe” attack if you will.

Thigh High Thursday

“Still relatively unknown to the local fashion scene, lies an incredibly deadly heaven-drilling wear… Just a quick glance of a girl equipped with Zettai Ryouiki can set the hearts of many on fire, ranging from your usual otaku to the president of the USA… With this, you will be able to rule the world (especially Singapore) and nobody will understand why they are so insanely attracted to you. — A Singaporean otaku”

At around mid 2008, over at Dannychoo.com, I started a weekly series, Monday Moe Musume (M-3). There I featured various topics which centered mostly on so called “Moe artefacts”. This ranged from character traits, social status and articles of clothing.   Reception was varied and it was interesting to read the comments.  From the insightful and those providing supporting information to the oft meme “OMGWTFBBQNOSEBLEEDS!!” Continue reading
