Seria un crimen si pasase por alto a la buena Nodame y al preocupado Chiaki. Si se trata de Shojo este anime trae a muchas esperando desde el 2006 , tras el inicio del manga , pasando por las series de TV  y  realizándose en el anime.

Si se trata de diferencias  Nodame y Shinichi son una muestra exacta de lo que es blanco y negro , su comedia romántica  nos arrastro por casi todos los sentidos de un  buen y razonable  sentido del humor.

Al fin este 2010 se realiza la emisión de su tercera y ultima  temporada,  a muchos nos resulto casi increíble el ver como este buen manga llego a su fin este 2009. Con el anime a las puertas del 2010 le diremos  Adiós  a nuestra pareja consentida cerrando asi el libro de la pareja mas extraña que se conoció en el mundo de la Música.

"Protecting the one and only truth in the name: Detective Conan!"

*SPOILER ALERT!!!: DON”T READ IF YOU DON”T LIKE SPOILERS*

Detective Conan (Or called Meitantei Conan in Japan and Case Closed in the US) is already 15 YEARS OLD!!! I was like 8 years old (or was it 7) when I first saw this show on GMA. When I first saw this show, I was not yet interested on watching it because I thought that the art style was lame (Then again, I was 7). But I watched it anyway because I had nothing else to do. When GMA stopped airing Conan, it had always kept me wondering: Did it end already? Did Shinichi return to his old life and got reunited with Ran again?

Shonen Tantei Dan

My question was answered 6 years later. IT WAS NOT YET OVER!! (Dang it!). Shinichi was still stuck being Conan and the goons that shrunk his body (The Black Organization) was still on the loose. They even got the FBI and the CIA involved! (Way to go Gosho sensei!). And Ran is still (miraculously) waiting for his dear childhood friend’s return (Talk about everlasting love!). I was shocked when I found out that the series was still ongoing. I mean I understand that Pokemon will never end (That show doesn’t even have a normal plot and it will only end when Nintendo declares bankruptcy or runs out of ideas for new Pokemon games ) but THIS?! Their ages didn’t even change!! Shinichi and Ran are still seventeen while the Detective Boys members are still seven. And Kogoro Mouri is still the same useless, drunkard and overprotective father. Although there were new characters that were introduced like Ai Haibara, the damsel-in-distress-hunted-by-the-men-in-black girl and the FBI and the ever awesome phantom thief Kaito-kid Sama!!! (He stole my heart!!) who is one of the formidable enemies of Kudo Shinichi (God, he has dozens of ‘em). Although I was quite impressed of the change in art style.

Ran: Boy is she loyal!

Now back to the Ran x Shinichi relationship. God!! I can’t believe that there is someone who can wait for their loved one for 15 years! (Although their time line in the series is different because the only thing that changes through the years was the technology they use and the fact that they are still high school students has not changed … sorry for the suckish English…) Their relationship was even tested many times in the series. Enter Ariade-sensei, the teacher has a thing for Ran and Ran’s obnoxious best friend Sonoko who keeps telling Ran that Shinichi is a bastard and she must start dating other guys. But those things didn’t keep Ran from waiting… There were even times when Ran became suspicious of Conan being Shinichi (She almost guessed it but Shinichi was too smart to keep her from knowing the truth.) And I also think that Haibara, who’s real identity is Shiho Miyano, the scientist of the Black Org who drank her own creation (The Apotoxin 4869: The drug that was forcibly taken by Shinichi which turned him into Conan), has a wittle cwush on cownan…..Little does Ran know that Shinichi was always by his side protecting her from any danger. They even kiss in a movie!! (No wait, It was Conan that was kissed by Ran and not Shinichi… Aw Shucks!)

Detective Conan Characters: There're still a lot of 'em!!!

The series currently has a Manga with 64 volumes (I do NOT know how many chapters ‘coz I only watch the anime) and 500+ and still increasing episodes. It also has 9 OVAs and 13 Movies (I have seen all the movies except for the 13th because it’s not yet subbed.) I don’t have any idea on how Gosho-sensei plans to end the series. There are only 3 outcomes that I can think of:

Possible Ending # 1:

- Ran finds out about Shinichi’s secret then the latter then receives bashing from the former for letting her wait for a long time then they make up. Shinichi returns to his normal body (So does Haibara) and the Black Org will be put behind bars.

Possible Ending #2:

-The Cliffie type of ending (I hate those types of ending) where they leave to the viewers what will happen next to the lives of the shrunken people.

Possible Ending # 3:

-Ai and Conan will never return to their normal lives and will be stuck forever as elementary school students until they grow up, again then Ran ends up with another guy. (Noooooo……. I hate Option 3… Gosho-sensei, please don’t!!!)

Or it could be that Gosho-sensei has no idea on how to end the friggin’ show!! It took Rumiko Takashi many years to end Ranma 1/2 but I do not know how and when will Aoyama end the series which he started in 1994 (I was 2 years old at that time but not that anyone really cares) There are still a lot of theories on my mind on how Detective Conan will end but even though it pisses me off, I will stay tuned on what is new about this series.

a little trivia about the show:

-The origin of Conan Edogawa’s name came from Sir Conan Arthur Doyle, the creator of the classic, Sherlock Holmes, and Edogawa Ranpo, who was a famous mystery novel writer in Japan.) Most of the characters have interesting name origins but I will not put them here for they are too many.

-The english version of the anime changed the names of the characters from Japanese to western names (except for Edogawa Conan).

For example:
*Shinichi Kudo- Jimmy Kudo
*Ran Mouri- Rachel Moore
*Kogoro Mouri- Richard Moore
*Heiji Hattori- Harley Hartwell
*Sonoko Suzuki- Serena Sebastian
*Mitsuhiko Tsubaraya- Mitch Tennison
*Genta Kojima- George Kaminski
*Ayumi Yoshida- Amy Yeager
*Ai Haibara- Anita Hailey

and many more…

(I laughed my ass out when I heard the stupid English Version names)

-Conan Edogawa’s Voice actress Minami Takayama and Conan’s creator Gosho Aoyama was married last 2005 but divorced on 2007.
-The series also has a live-action version with Oguri Shun as Kudo Shinichi

TRUE LOVE FOREVER!!

k.

The full song of “ROCK U” by the electronic group ravex featuring Namie Amuro has leaked onto the radio.  This low-quality radio rip of the song shows what it’s all about.  It’s very rave, it’s very Ami-Suzuki-Climb-Up-To-The-Top, and to be honest it’s not a very good song.  It’s fun, but she’s basically screaming everything and there’s not much of a definable melody.  I was expecting much more from this song, because after the amazing “BLACK DIAMOND” and “Luvotomy” I have pretty high hopes for her collaborations.  Sadly, this was the supreme let-down.

ravex’s full debut album, “Trax”, which will contain this song along with collaborations from DJ Ozma, Tohoshinki/DBSK, Anna Tsuchiya, BoA, Maki Goto, and many more will be out on April 24th.

Tama nga yung comment ni James sa isa kong blog post. Na-realize ko puno lang ng common sense si Bob Ong at kulang sya sa logic/reasoning.

Naalala ko bigla yung isang part sa Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas. Sabi nya dun wala daw sya pruweba na protektado yung mata nya pero naniniwala sya dahil sinabi ng optometrist na may computer tint daw yun. Isa yun sa kwento nya tungkol sa faith.

Stupid. May pruweba sya. Kung walang kontra radiation yung eyeglasses nya, mananakit mata nya. Sabi nya wala syang pruweba. Dahil yun sa wala syang nararamdaman na kakaiba.

Therefore, it’s not faith. There’s evidence. But I know my deduction isn’t wholly right. Kulang sa evidence. (Edogawa Conan?)

Okay, naisip ko wala din pala pruweba sinasabi ko. Pero di ko babawiin sinabi ko sa first paragraph. Mas mahalaga pa rin ang logic kesa common sense. Dahil lahat ng tao may common sense. Ang logic, kelangan i-master sa pamamagitan ng kahit anong gusto mo.

Logic o Common Sense? Logic syempre! Kaya mga bata, manood kayo ng Detective Conan. Pampatalino yun. Pwede pamalit sa Sineskwela.

…knows when to call it a night

but this is a late a powerful vibration that came my way via faces from far away… simply stunning shots and deeply rooted in Japanese artistic heritage… in my opinion a true representation of Nihonga art through the photographic media…

SHINICHI MARUYAMA

The “J” is silent!

This time I’m giving out some tasters for the lovely musical country of Japan!! Two main “dirty electro” esq artists for you to dabble in/with/on! First up is:

80kidz – Myspace – Official Site

These guys are a 3-piece from what I can figure out! The music is fucking great to get me up on the dance floor! They’ve had two EPs which pretty much sold out in no time and now have a mini album chocked full of original material … and one remix! Well worth buying! You can easily get it on iTunes and Beatport or if you’re still in love with the good old CD then give HMV.co.jp a shot!

Life Begins At Eighty

1 Television Talk
2 F**k Fox
3 Disdrive
4 Life Begins At Eighty
5 Alt A
6 F**k Fox (autKratz Remix)

Disdrive Live @ Ganban Night

Shinichi Osawa – Myspace – Official Site

This music could be classed more so as pop than electro easily, but I find it has lots in common with Van She or Cut Copy! It’s fun, fresh and great for bopping to! The main album I’ve been listening to is The One! this is a great album and look forward to getting the throw up of mixes in The One+! These two names confused me hugely at first for some reason but sure it’s spelt out in proper english for you here!! They are different! I was trying to get his stuff on download from many sites but even iTunes and Beatport let me down! So I ended up getting it from HMV.co.jp

The One

1 Star Guitar
2 Detonator
3 Electoro 411

5 Dreamhunt
6 Push
7 Rendezvous
8 The Patch
