K-ON and ON
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.29 – 23:35 -I’m currently watching けいおん！(Keion!), which is the new アニメ (anime) from 京都アニメーション (Kyoto Animeishon). It’s about the girls of the 桜高軽音部 (Sakura-kou Keion-bu) who essentially start a band. The music is pretty awesome, especially the ending song, Don’t say “lazy.” Needless to say, since it is 京アニ, it is automatically all over the NicoDous:
【ニコニコ動画】そおらん！
The ending song mixed with ソーラン節 (Souran-bushi)!
【ニコニコ動画】ＵＮ ＴＡＮＥ【けいおん！×ＲＥＤ ＺＯＮＥ】（インタレ解除）
Of course the obligatory RED ZONE remix. XD
【ニコニコ動画】けいとら！【けいおん！MAD】
Opening theme with cute 軽トラック instead of high school girls! I’d watch this show!
【ニコニコ動画】平沢唯のパーフェクトにーといくせい教室【けいおん！】
Cirno’s Perfect Math Class remix too, of course.
【ニコニコ動画】けいおん！澪メイド 萌え萌えキュン♥で【てってってー】
…and endless gushing over the 萌え (moe) characters in the show.
Episode 9 just aired and introduced a new member of the club. Here you can get caught up in 36 seconds:

The new girl is called あずにゃん (Azunyan) and the NicoDou is alive with にゃんs!
【ニコニコ動画】【けいおん！】あずにゃんでにゃあにゃあにゃあ【てってってー】
【ニコニコ動画】【けいおん！】あずにゃんできゅきゅにゃー【３倍萌え萌え❤】
Anyway, I’m enjoying this show. If you want to try and watch it on the nets, give this link a try: http://youtubetvdoramadouga.blog111.fc2.com/blog-entry-1708.html

METAL of CIRNO
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.21 – 22:03 -
【ニコニコ動画】【チルノのパーフェクトさんすう教室をメタル（ｒｙ】を歌ってみた。
I can’t stop listening to this song. Basically, some one did a metal arrangement for チルノのパーフェクトさんすう教室. This version is a vocal version done by Gero. It’s amazing. I really can’t stop listening to it. Makes we want to do this in karaoke so bad. XD
More metal Ⅸ after the jump.

He sells Warabi-mochi like his life depends on it!

【ニコニコ動画】【ぷるぷる】わらびもちに命をかける業者【ぷる～ん】
This is brilliant. The guy is selling わらび餅 (warabi mochi) and saying ぷるぷる (purupuru) while he does it. You can’t ignore it, for better or for worse.
We had a guy who used to sell 焼き芋 (yaki imo) around my house. Would he have to yell ほかほか (hokahoka)??? Should I start an ice cream truck and yell “Ice Cream! BurrBurr!!!”
Extra MADness after the jump.

Legend of Hammer
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.12 – 01:12 -
Today is this month’s Hammer Day. The entry for this month is an amazing reprise of ナイト・オブ・ナイツ. But, the comment says it will be the last one. This episode even is pretty nostalgic feeling, as it is a better version of the first one, so it could be true. The Hammer is a tricky one, so it is hard to say for sure. There is even talk of a Second Generation of Hammer. I guess we can only tell for sure on June 11th…
If you aren’t familiar with Hammer Day, it is the 11th of every month. On Hammer Day, there is a new Hammer video that is uploaded. The entries up until now are after the jump.

Happy Children’s Day!
Written by Jeshii on 2009.05.05 – 23:14 -
And so, Golden Week, the span of holidays starting on April 29th with 昭和の日 (Showa Day) and ending with こどもの日 (Kodomo no Hi). This is my first こどもの日 with my son, so we bought a little こいのぼり (Koi nobori) at the Japanese market. The picture is off of flickr by mrhayata, and way cooler than mine! XD
An interesting tidbit about こどもの日 is that despite officially being a day for all children, it is more of a celebration of/for boys based on the original holiday of 端午の節句 (Tango no Sekku). The day that is more of a celebration of/for girls is ひな祭り (Hina Matsuri), which is on March 3rd.
There is even a controversy saying that the fact that the こどもの日 is a national holiday while ひな祭り isn’t is a sign of gender discrimination. I personally thing that having a day off probably benefits any of the kids in the family!
And, as I live in Los Angeles, I do not have the day off while people plan on celebrating Cinco De Mayo tonight. I wonder if my son will grow up associating こいのぼり with Mexican food?
