Awesome drama ToGetHer [11-1-2009]

-
Okay, to be truthful, I had to try watching this again after the first time because when I first watched this drama, I got really bored and didn't even get through episode 1. This is one of those dramas where you sort of have to stick it out in the beginning until the real action starts which is towards the ending of ep 1. It's not too much of a wait. :)

The story starts off with Momo (Rainie Yang), an agoraphobic otaku who's walking home with a life size Prince Kashaba anime cardboard figure. She's going back to her apartment complex. Somewhere else in Taipei, celebrity Mars (Jiro Wang) is going through problems with negative publicity and he's losing his house and many other assets of his once successful life. His manager who's also his best friend eventually rents him a room at an apartment. Mars is also forced back into school by his manager and eventually runs into Momo. He pisses her off by signing her Prince Kashaba manga book. Little does Momo know that the apartment room that Mars is renting is in her own complex and she's the landlord!

These two butt heads throughout the entire series with Momo gradually giving Mars advice that she learned from her Prince Kashaba manga. There's also the 'other guy,' Jia Sen (George Hu), Momo's long time childhood friend who has "the intelligence of an 8-year-old" and an undying crush on her.
This is a very heartfelt type of drama and it has a lot of dramatic points that bring you to tears. I really do recommend it because it's cute and has a ton of great themes and morals to learn.



Jiro Wang is sooooooooooooooooooooo hawt!!! Rainie is so lucky! x3

Why does Lightning look so different in FFXIII Lightning Returns? [SPOILERS-!]

I finally finished the game Lightning Returns recently and zomg, why does her face look so different?  I mean, she looks like she got plastic surgery. Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I am not criticizing the game in its entirety.  This is solely about the change in Lightning's hair and facial design.  The game play of Lightning Returns has nothing to do with this. :) I didn't really notice her face change until I beat the game and watched the ending CG animation scene.  (pic above is from the opening CG scene) I was a bit disappointed that the animators weren't consistent in her facial design, especially when it was so beautiful to begin with. Here's some compare/contrast pics I found. This one is of the CG animation for FFXIII, FFXIII-2, and FFXIII Lightning Returns. And here's the cutscene animation.  It's a bit more difficult to tell the difference in the cutscene animation unless you look closely. The hair

Anime Food!: Brock's Cream Stew

Hello again!  My apologies for taking so long to make another 'Anime Food' post.  Enjoy! During my childhood days of watching Pokemon, I would often see Brock cooking this white stew thing.  It would look so yummy but I had no idea what it was..  And even though my entire family and extended family was Japanese, none of them ever made something like this.  (T__T)  The closest thing I got was corn chowder. Only recently did I discover that it's called cream stew and luckily, it's quite the easy recipe. ^^ I remember the very first time I made this.  I used a cream stew mix pack from the store (the one that has the blocks that you melt in the pot).  That turned out pretty bad so I highly recommend people make this one from scratch.  It's really does taste so much better this way.  I'm lazy so instead of having the pretty diced pieces of carrot, I threw in some baby carrots.  XD Close up ;3 I found this recipe on Little Japan Mama's rec

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt 1 & 2

Hooray for the 100th post~! (^0^) I finally got to watching the last installment of the Harry Potter series (The Deathly Hallows Pt2) last night with my dad (and may I add that he was so loud, especially on the quiet parts of the movie, I even had to elbow him and tell him to be quiet... And then he's laugh at inappropriate times, so embarrassing, thank God it was dark). Sorry to say but after viewing it for the first time, I really prefer Pt1. I don't know why, maybe it's because I liked the scenery better or those particular scenes opposed to the 2nd part of the movie. My favorite scenes were the one with the doe patronus and Harry & party running down the streets of London and when they infiltrated the ministry. I'd have to watch the last Hp movie again to give a better review because sometimes when I watch the movie again, I have a better impression of it. The last movie was full of effects and flare. I was trying REALLY hard not to compare it to th
