you really think so?
Akan datang - not really new news but haven’t seen it much on the other blogs - Super Theatre Edition Sgt. Frog (超劇場版 ケロロ軍曹) opens on 2006-03-11 (official movie website). The trailer was right at the end of the recent Keroro Gunso TV episodes. New aliens invade the Earth and it’s up to the gang to save the day!

It’s pretty sad that I’m enjoying omake and parodies more than the actual series… SUNRISE, I’ll maki maki you to death!!! On to the main subject of this post, this week’s crop of Urayo’s parodies in his CG Diary weren’t so self-evident i.e. I had to thumb through my dictionary to get some of the jokes. So in the spirit of sharing (and double-checking with more fluent Japanese speakers), here goes - click on the dates for the doujin:
Top panel
2006-02-22: Chie-san, can you spare a moment?
Chie: Fuu… Aoi is definitely still alive. Because this rose’s answer tells me that it is so.
Second panel
She’s still alive..
She’s not dead..
She’s been saved..
It’s not too late..
Third panel
S..She’s not in trouble..
S..She’s not a guy..
N..Not in front.. (?)
S..s..s..s…she’s not the least attractive..
Aoi (in ghostly form): Chi..Chie-chan? (^_^;)
The ×××HOLiC movie, A Midsummer’s Night Dream, was released on 2005-08-20 (ANN - see also for introductory synposis) and I’ve been looking forward to it since watching the trailer. Really hope that Arienai Fansubs will pick this up as my understanding of the movie, based on my half-baked Japanese, is far from perfect. Also looking forward to a post from CLAMP specialist, Dav, at Takoyaki & Ocha. I would be most grateful if readers could point out my errors or omissions.
I’ve chosen to use “×” (multiplication sign) for the first three characters instead of xxxHOLiC or XXXHOLiC - mostly because the series name is read simply as “holic” (ホリック) with the first three characters representing blanks rather than sounds. There’s variation on the official website so this is just a note on my personal perference.
Kimihiro Watanuki - a young man with the cursed blood of being able to see spirits but also attract them to him; Domeki - a schoolmate, archer, from a family of exorcists, his special ability is to repel spirits with his mere presence; Himawari - love interest of Watanuki, smells of trouble despite her utter niceness; Yûko Ichihara - the time-space witch, a powerful (moon) magic-user whom Watanuki works for to cure his curse. Further summary, spoilers and 129 screencaps. The screencap quality isn’t great as the file size was a manageable 445 megs. If it were the same quality (assuming same encoding) as for the trailer, it would have ended up at almost 900 megs! Continue reading ‘XXXHOLiC: A Midsummer Night’s Dream’
