Pandora Hearts Chapter 61

Well unfortunately it took a while longer to get these up and since I'm not too desperate to make accounts to download raws I waited patiently and was ecstatic when it came out ( "is" ecstatic, I guess is better since I'm writing this as I'm about to read it!)

WARNING:
Consists of spoilers (obviously) and flooding of scans!! Jun's art is so pretty, I can't help it!!

Hello everyone~
I decided with force of my friend to do some blogging and I've decided to Blog on Pandora Hearts because it is amazing. Now, I'm not going to start from the beginning so I've decided to speak and rant a bit about what's happened in the latest chapters, so then afterwards I can start get onto the next chapter (Chapter 61) which comes out Tomorrow!

[KWMS] Usui's... purse?

Because I'm so cool I upload more than 1 post a week XD
So let's get on with it~
--

So I was happily reading my LaLa of the month and...
Huh?
I flipped the page back...
Usui was carrying?
A . p u r s e ?

Not just any purse-
My mom's purse -w-"
*eh hum*
Your mom's purse.

I have kindly waited for this to be translated in english before linking a pic for everybody~ ^^
Kaichou Wa Maid-sama! Vol.12 Ch.056: A Maid Christmas! at MangaFox.com
Everyone, marvel this to your heart's content and ask yourself-
"Why does Usui look like a women from the back?"

But nether-less, just for being Usui Takumi (mind you, the person voted #1 for being the sex*iest anime male of 2010)
He can rock that man-purse XD
God- he can be in my mom's flowery gardening clothes and still look hot XD
...okay
...maybe not
...

But just sharing a great moment of joy with you guys~
Let's just say it's an early Christmas pressie for everyone ;3

Oricon's Weekly Manga Rating for December 13th

Maybe a bit late- but wanted to post this anyway ^^
1. “BLEACH” (the 48th colume) – Kubo Tite (462,154)

2. “Yotsubato!” (the 10th volume) – Azuma Kiyohiko (243,912)

3. “D.Gray-man” (the 21st volume) – Hoshino Katsura (215,177)

4. “Gintama” (the 37th volume) – Sorachi Hideaki (188,618)

5. “Katekyoushi Hitman REBORN!” (the 32nd volume) – Amano Akira (180,760)


So those were the results everybody, I sure hope I wasn't the only one that found this disappointing ><
How did Gintama beat KRR? Yotsubato beat D.Gray-man?
And god- BLEACH isn't even good!!!
What is this?
...
disgraceful?
oh well- back to reading shoujo I guess ;3
Just as much action with at least more decent story lines then shounen these days -w-"

Hana to Akuma Ending Review [SPOILER]

SPOILER WARNING

Only for those who have finished the manga because they can read nihongo- and don't need to wait for translations.

---

I ADORED the ending of HANA TO AKUMA

It was bittersweet everybody~ stop complaining that it's sad -w-"
For a shoujo manga, this now goes on as one of the best on my list of epic endings.

Hana to Akuma parts with us in a 27 page ending, I was hoping they'd get a special and run for 40+... but I guess, short and sweet is good too ne? ^^

With a beautiful full-color page as the beginning~ mind you, featuring both Hana and Vivi with their eyes closed, which made it so so much better (since their eyes was the main reason I seriously considered dropping this)!
The color page seems to have an "antique" feeling to it? The type of tea-stained effect color-scheme, which makes it so oddly romantic... >w<

We start "episode.58" (as the cover reads), with a timeskip to "1 year later", with a beautiful wedding dress on Hana and Vivi looking fine as usual... guess what? They finally get married! YAY!
Just a question: How old is Hana again after the time-skip? She looks 15-16 -w-"

Momo also pays a visit to Hana at her wedding, sending her down the aisle with a smile and we are finally given our last romantic moment with Hana and Vivi under the moonlight, hugging and a smile on their faces.

With another skip through time- we are seen with a young girl walking home who looks suspiciously like Hana, meeting with Eleanor and Felton- then seeing her brother (who looks like Momo and Vivi's gay child XD) ushers him towards their car.

As they meet Vivi, we see him standing in front of a grave and...

*le gasp*
it's Hana's T^T

Most of us, who have followed this manga ever since the beginning are probably tearing up by now- but let me continue...

We - the readers are finally given our last parting gift with Hana to Akuma with a series of flashbacks with Vivi being the narrator- finishing his little speech with a smile.

Flowers are then put in front of Hana's grave, and we are lead to presume that the two "young'ins" are the children of Vivi and Hana.

The story finally finishes with a picture of Hana's grave, several bouquets and a single rose from Vivi.

"To live in the hearts
of those we love
is never to die"
is the quote embedded on Hana's grave.

Doesn't that finish the story perfectly?

I'm actually kind of glad we don't get the Disney ending with "happily ever after" and Hana turns out to be an angel or get an immortal potion blah blah blah.

As I said, I ADORED this ending.
Bittersweet endings like this is the best ^^ (unless it's like Clannad and turns good after bad, or was just a happy story with no major complication like Immortal+Mortal to start with).

Making A/M/D Music Videos

Hey, It's Alazarelle here :D

I've always loved to created Anime Music videos (AMVs), Manga Music Videos (MMVs) and Doujin Music Videos (DMV) [I also love making slideshow stuff with hetalia <3 which I call HMVs]

Anyway, I am getting Sony Vegas Pro 9 for my Birthday/Christmas present which I am so excited about and so before Christmas I decided to download the free trial which has been so much fun to play with :3

I will admit that I'm a stubborn perfectionist who can never get anything done and show it to people XD But I actually feel a whole lot more confident now so I've decided to give a peek to my first short (hetalia) DMV that I made a few days ago. I've already made a full video but that's still being rendered. This is also a draft kinda thing so don't expect anything amazing XD

(The video isn't working D: So, I'll just post a link to my Youtube account so you can see videos when I post them up there) - (CLICK)

:3 That's basically all I've got to say so Yuzu you better be damn happy I posted something XD

Remember everyone, the strike tool is your friend >:3
