This post is a continuation of this one:http://bluesea81.livejournal.com/129
Since I asked
1.WHAT GOT YOU IN THIS FANDOM IN THE FIRST PLACE?
SEIYUU: I guess it was "InuYasha".Kappei Yamaguchi was the one who made me appreciate seiyuu and their work.But my love for seiyuu really began with "Mirage of Blaze".Show Hayami and Seki Toshihiko were amazing.This is kinda how it all started forme:a heart-wretching story,a good,complicated plot and 2 amazing seiyuu.
MORIMORI: Even though I first heard him as Naraku in "InuYasha","Gallery Fake" was the anime who drew my attention on Morimori as a seiyuu.He voices the main character,Fujita Reiji,and he was so much fun for me.And from this a beautiful love story began.then I saw "Fuyu no Semi" which made me adore Morimori as I do now.
2.DO YOU THINK YOU'LL STAY IN THIS FANDOM OR EVENTUALLY MOVE ON?
SEIYUU & MORIMORI: They're stuck with me forever!Undying and eternal love!
3.FAVOURITE EPISODES/BOOKS/MOVIES ETC?
SEIYUU:-FAVOURITE SEIYUU:Show Hayami,Seki Toshihiko,Toshiyuki Morikawa,Miki Shinichiro,Yasunori Matsumoto,Taiki Matsuno,Masaya Onosaka,Seki Tomokazu,Sugita Tomokazu,Yoshino Hiroyuki,Kishio Daisuke,Ono Daisuke,Namikawa Daisuke,Hirakawa Daisuke,Fukuyama Jun,Hiyama Nobuyuki,Horiuchi Kenyuu,Suwabe Junichi,Kamiya Hiroshi,Yusa Koji,Toriumi Kosuke(Tori-chan),Ueda Yuji,Suzumura Kenichi,Chiba Susumu,Yuki Hiro,Koyasu Takehito,Ryotaro Okiayu,Inoue Kazuhiko,Nozomu Sasaki,Mamoru Miyano,Yamaguchi Kappei,Ito Kentarou(Kenta-chan),Narita Ken,Konishi Katsuyuki,Kanna Nobutoshi,Sakurai Takahiro,hikaru Hanada,Tooru Okawa,Tooru Furusawa,Shigeru Chiba,Shigeru Nakahara,Kenji Hamada,Midorikawa Hikaru,Koji Tsujitani,Shiozawa Kaneto(God he had such a sweet,wonderful voice.RIP),Kosugi Juurota,Keiji Fujiwara,Tachiki Fumihiko,takahashi Hiroki,Shoutaro Morikubo,Ishida Akira,Mitsuaki Madono,Noriaki Sugiyama,Morita Masakazu,Houchu Otsuka,Koichi Toochika,Orikasa Ai,Satsuki Yukino,Orikasa Fumiko,Paku Romi,Megumi Ogata,Megumi Hayashibara,Maaya Sakamoto etc.
-FAVOURITE ANIME:"Mirage of Blaze"-for all the awesomeness Hayami-san,SekiTosh,Matsumoto Yasunori etc brought to the screen
MikiShin as Mizuki in ep 1 etc
DRAMA CDs(BL OR OTHERWISE):-"MoB" related CDs and audio tracks.Needless to explain why...
MUSIC CDs(ANIME RELATED OR NOT)-Atobe Keigo Character Singles-just amazing singing by Suwabe Junichi
MORIMORI:-FAVOURITE ANIME ROLES:-Reiji Fujita in "Gallery Fake",Akizuki in "Fuyu no Semi"OVAs,Isaka-san in "Junjou Romantica" ,Dante in "Devil May Cry",Sephiroth in "FFVII A C "and "FFVII The Last Order", Naraku in "InuYasha",Shuei Lan in "Saiunkoku Monogatari",Honda in "Close the Last Door"OVA,and the list goes on since I love him in everything he does :)
-FAVOURITE DRAMA CDs (MOSTLY BL ONES):"Fuyu no Semi","Haru wo Daiteita","Close the Last Door","Answer","Koi no Annajin","Gin no Requiem"...and the list is really HUGE.I love him as both uke and seme ,that's how great he is.I always say that BL was made for Morimori and Morimori was made for BL.
-MUSIC-I think he is the one of the best singers among the seiyuu I've heard so far.I simply love his singing,be it anime character singles,or 2Hearts songs,or Black Velvet etc
4.DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN THIS FANDOM?(FANFICTION,GRAPHICS,DISCUSSIONS)
SEIYUU & MORIMORI:Yes sometimes I do,but mostly to take what others have to offer since I'm too poor and too faraway from Japan.
5.DO YOU THINK PEOPLE SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN THIS FANDOM?
SEIYUU & MORIMORI:YES.Seiyuu and Morimori are just amazing and wonderful.But not all people appreciate them.
This is the answer for
1.WHAT GOT YOU IN THIS FANDOM IN THE FIRST PLACE? The "Death Note" live action movies.
2.DO YOU THINK YOU'LL STAY IN THIS FANDOM OR EVENTUALLY MOVE ON? I'll stay since I find Tatsuya to be a talented actor.
3.FAVOURITE EPISODES/BOOKS/MOVIES? I guess "Moonlight Jellyfish" and "Sabu".I saw some clips from his theatrical performances and he is an amazing actor.He has talent and he works hard to improve his skills and that is why I admire and love him.
And I think his photobooks are really beautiful too.
4.DO YOU PARTICIPATE IN THIS FANDOM?Sometimes I do.
5.DO YOU THINK PEOPLE SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN THIS FANDOM?If you like him you should,Tatsuya has the potential to become one of Japan greatest actors.
Phew!That was a long post!

Just read chapter 350 from "Bleach" and I have to say that I am disappointed.The story was so PREDICTABLE! Ichigo's down,Inoue is whining as she always does,wondering what to do.C'mon!Such a cliche!And then Ichigo wakes up because he has to protect her.MEH! I expected more!
The only thing I liked was Ishida.Come to think of it I kinda am clueless as why he loves Inoue.Oh,I know why:she is so beautiful and innocent,right?"I have to protect her" kind of syndrome...Wow! Men really think they do women justice with that?
Well I just wanted to vent my frustration.I really love "Bleach",I really do.But Rukia's and Kaien's story was so much more beautiful.
Inoue was a character with a lot of potential for development,instead Kubo-san chose to keep her at such a cliche level.I do miss Rukia or Yoruichi.
Sorry for the ranting.this subject will be developed further in the next days.Bye-bye for now! Have a nice week-end!

Well you might think that the first snow it's not a special event,but for me it is.There's nothing more beautiful than to see big,beautiful,soft snowflakes coming down from the sky,covering everything with a pure,white blanket.But this year's first snow was even more special because I shared it with my nieces.It's so wonderful to see children enjoying snow,receiving it with a joy and an innocence that fill your heart with warm,wonderful feelings.
Today was a good day.
I wish a great week-end to you all.

The week-end has finally began.Free from work?Maybe.I'm not sure I won't be working this week-end also.Something seems to come up almost every time I think I can relax.Bureaucracy is a mood killer.
I've managed to make a new lj friend this week.Not bad.It seems that seiyuu not only entertain people,but also bring them together.
I saw on youtube that the 2nd Ikoku Irokoi Romantan OVA will be released soon.Yay!I'm looking forward to that.I don't know what took them so long.Kentarou Ito is such a wonderful uke("drools") and Suwabe-san as Al...wow!(melts here).Well enough of that!
I don't have interesting to say,I just wanted to let people know that I'm alive and well,a little tired though.That's it!As they say:la comedia e finita.Or not?
A nice week-end people!

It's 8:13 p.m. and I just finished working.I'm really starting to hate this job that doesn't even allow me to have a peaceful week-end.The only good thing about this is that I can earn some extra money that is much needed.
I feel exhausted,I didn't have decent night sleep in almost 2 months.I leave home in the morning and I return at 10 p.m. almost every night.Thank God I work close to home!And on top of all I live in a crowded house and I can hardly find a moment to just sit and relax all by myself.
In moments like these I really do miss being a child!Life was so simple then!
For those who read this post and think this is stupid,just ignore it.
A nice week-end to you all!

I haven't posted to my lj in a while.So 'Hello,everybody".Nothing much happened in my life and what happened is neither interesting, nor it's worth talking about .
I had a minor surgery that kept me in hospital for some time,I found a new job that is currently taking most of my time and my mom came back from Italy.
My sister got beatten by her husband and she and her babies are living with me and my folks, so it's kind of crowded in my house and I have no privacy whatsoever.Sometimes I wish I could just leave and never come back home.
In the meantime I've finally managed to finish reading "Taiko" and I saw "Honey and Clover" which is one of the best anime I've seen lately.I loved the bitter-sweet story,but most of all I loved the insert songs.My favourite one is "Happy Birthday";I can't get enough of it.
I succeeded in downloading my favourite anime of all times which is "Versailles no Bara",also known as "Lady Oscar" in Europe.This is the anime that made me love anime,it is the kind of story that you can never forget even if it's more than ten years since you first saw it.
So I decided to make a top 10 of my favourite anime inviting you to do the same so I can find some more interesting anime to watch.
1-Versasilles no Bara(Lady Oscar)
2-Death Note
3-Cowboy Bebop
4-Inuyasha
5-Mirage of Blaze
6-Honey and Clover
7-Paradise Kiss
8-Fullmetal Alchemist
9-Yu Yu Hakusho
10-Wolf's Rain
I would also like to know what are your favourite anime soundtracks.Mine are from Cowboy Bebop,Mirage of Blaze(anime and OVA),Honey and Clover ,Death Note and Inuyasha.
So this is what I had to say for today.Have a nice week-end!

It seems that I stumble upon Morimori a lot lately,he is practically in almost every anime I'm watching ,in "Junjou Romantica","Saiunkoku Monogatari" and now "Saint Beast".I love him and watching animes that feature his voice entertain me a lot.Another seiyuu that I found in the animes I'm watching is Kentarou Ito which became one of my favourite seiyuus.He is in my top alongside Moromori,MikiShin, Sho Hayami and Toshihiko Seki.I just love him in "Junjou Romantica",he made me like Hiro-san better than any other character and in "Bleach".He is so funny that I always feel better "after seeing" him.And I really need some cheering up these days when every thing turned out for the worst in my private life.
I hope this wasn't too boring for you guys.See you!

My niece's b-day was o.k.,everyone enjoyed the cake I made(it was a little too sweet for my taste this time ).
While browsing through the net I found this great site that has a lot of anime,video game and movie OSTs available for download:htpp:\\gh.ffshrine.org and began downloading some stuff from there.
I was happy to find out that there's a new version of "Fuyu no Semi"OVA.I would have bought it ,but it is too expensive for my limited budget,so I'm waiting for a kind soul to upload it(I saw some screen caps someone made and it looked great).
A nice week to you all.

Now I'm busy preparing for my niece's birthday(she'll be 1 year old on the 8th of May) and on the 15th I'll be finally leaving for Italy...to work,not to have fun.
In the meantime I found some interesting anime to watch:"Persona,Trinity Soul","Devil May Cry"(cool looking main character with Morimori's voice),"X Tv" and"Vampire Knight" and most of all I finally managed to find "Gallery Fake" on a site where I can download it from(main character with Morimori's voice again).I even tried to watch "Junjou Romantica"(mostly because Morimori is in it).
My friend George was in town,but we missed one another(cries here).
These were"Bluesea's Adventure's on Easter Holiday 2008".
And a little message for lady black cat:I know I promised you a gift and I intend to keep that promise,but I don't really know when it will be done.Sorry for that.
A good day to you all.

I stood awake until 3 a.m. last night to see the entire 6 episodes,though I was very sleepy.Justin Kirk was so great as Prior Walter.I won't say anything about Al Pacino or Meryl Streep or Jeffrey Wright.
I haven't read Tony Kushner's play,but I hope to do so one day.
Here it is the next chapter from "MIKI'S SONG"(for those interested in reading it).
MIKI'S SONG CHAPTER THREE
Ryo stood by the window watching the courtyard.It was a beautiful early summer day.The air was filled with fragrance.
A perfect day to fall in love...
"Watanabe-kun are you alright?"a familiar voice asked in a concerned tone.
Ryo turned around slowly.His black eyes met Miki's serene grey eyes.
Those eyes will be the end of me...they are so beautiful...
"I'm fine...don't worry,Tokugawa-kun",Ryo said as soon as he could find his words.
Since Miki became his classmate,Ryo realized that he was drawn to him.And he felt unhappy every time he saw Miki talking to a girl during recess.
Miki had become very popular among girls and Ryo soon realized that he was jealous whenever Miki paid attention to a girl.That is why he felt so miserable.He would never have imagined that one day he would fall in love with a man.The more he thought about it the more Ryo convinced himself that he had fallen in love with Miki.He had fallen in love since the day they bumped into each other at the airport.
Miki returned home late in the evening.He had visited doctor Yoshinaga's consulting room and the news were not good.He really had leukemia as doctor Michaels had told him before returning to Japan.
I really am sick...I hoped that it was a mistake,but it's not...Dr.Yoshinaga confirmed dr.Michaels' diagnosis...
He sat down on the bed.He spent the whole night thinking about what to do.When the dawn came Miki had already decided how he would behave from that day on.

So without any further ado here it is the 2nd chapter from MIKI'S SONG.Enjoy it.
I really can't believe it...The guy I bumped into at the airport yesterday turned out to be Miya's cousin...
"Is there something wrong,Ryo-kun?"
Reiko's voice brought Ryo back to reality.He seemed lost for a few seconds,but he eventually answered her question.
"No,it's just that I..."
"He is probably surprised to meet me again so soon",Miki suddenly said with an amused expression on his face."We bumped into each other at the airport yesterday."
"Let's go inside.The movie is going to start soon",Mitsuru said putting an end to that awkward moment between Miki and Ryo.
What's wrong with you ?Ryo asked himself while trying to pay attention to what was happening on the screen.You behaved like an idiot a few minutes ago.What will Miki think of you?
Miki on the other hand was enjoying the movie.It was not the kind of movie he usually liked to watch,but that comedy was really entertaining.
Reiko,who was sitting next to Miki,enjoyed his presence.She looked at him a few times and got to the conclusion that Miki was the most beautiful boy she had ever seen.
When the movie ended Mitsuru suggested that they should go get a pizza.Haruka and Reiko agreed,but Miki declined the invitation.
"I have to decline your invitation,Mitsuru-san.I am tired... The jet lag and all....I just want to go home and sleep.I apologize..."
"I should've known that you must feel tired since Miya and I kept you awake last night...I'll take you home,Miki-chan.We can get a pizza some other time,right Haruka?"
Haruka nodded."Of course,my dear."
"Absolutely not,Mitsuru-san.I can go home by taxi."
"Or I can take Miki-kun home,"Ryo found himself saying without thinking twice.
"I don't want to bother you,Watanabe-kun."
"It's no bother.It would be my pleasure to give you a lift home."
"If that's the case I accept your kind offer.Thank you."
Miki hardly spoke on the way home.Ryo looked at him from the corner of his eye and noticed that Miki was very pale.
"Are you alright,Miki-kun?You are pale."
"I'm just tired,Watanabe-kun.It's nothing that a good night sleep can't cure.Thank you for the ride home."
"Don't mention it.It was my pleasure.Good night!"
"God night to you too.Thanks again."
Ryo watched Miki until he got into the house.The feeling that he had met Miki some where before was stronger than ever.
While he drove back home he tried to remember where he had met Miki before,but he could not.
Maybe it's my imagination...but he seems familiar ...Like someone dear to me...
Miki went to his room as soon as he entered the house.He did not even eat dinner.He was feeling dizzy and nauseated.He went to the bathroom and threw up in the closet.Soon after that he felt a little better.
He opened the wardrobe and took a small bag out.It contained some medicine bottles.He took one pill from each bottle and swallowed them with water.
I have to hide these pills somewhere where they can't be found....
After he found a place to hide the pills Miki went out on the balcony and lit a cigarette.

Miki stood in the doorway watching his cousin,Miya.She looked so beautiful and happy like any other bride to be would.He had decided to tell his family the reason for his return the same day he arrived in Japan,but the news of Miya's getting married in September made him give up on that.
How can I tell her now?She is so happy.This is the most beautiful time for her...How can I spoil that?
"Why are you standing there like a mummy,Miki-chan?"
Mitsuru's voice startled Miki.He turned around and smiled.It amazed Miki how easily he could fabricate expressions since the day that terrible news was dropped on him.
"I was just admiring Miya-san.She looks very beautiful."
Both young men admired Miya,who was speaking on the phone in the living room,for a few more seconds and then headed towards the kitchen.Mitsuru made some tea for both of them and tried to find out the real reason for which Miki came back to Japan,but Miki's answer was the same as the night before:"I couldn't stand living in America anymore.I missed Japan too much.I decided that is better to finish high school here."
Mitsuru felt there was something more,but he decided it was better not to insist.Miki did not like to be questioned.He was the type of person who did not like to talk about himself.He had always been quiet and reserved and discreet.
"My girlfriend and I wanted to see a movie tonight with some friends.Come with us",Mitsuru finally said.
Miki thought about saying no,but the look in his cousin's eyes made him accept the offer.It would be good to be among young,carefree people.
"Alright,Mitsuru-san.I'd love to."
Mitsuru smiled.America had not changed Miki at all.He was the same courteous,polite self.
Out of his three cousins Miki had always been his favourite.He liked to play piano with him,even if he found piano lessons very hard.Miki was a natural talent while Mitsuru only took piano lessons to please his mother.He wondered if Miki continued to play the piano while he was abroad.He missed listening to him.He played the piano so well.
"Come on Ryo,don't make me beg",Reiko shouted on the phone."Haruka and Mitsuru are going to the movies and asked me to go with them.Please come with us.It would be good for you to take a break.And besides I already told my sister you'll be coming too,so you can't refuse."
Ryo sighed.Reiko was a spoiled brat that always found a way to get what she wanted,but that did not upset him.They had been friends since elementary school and even dated for a little while.They went out together to the movies sometimes or hanged out with their friends and of course Ryo helped her with her homework.
"O.k.I could use a break after all."
"You're the best.Come to my house in half an hour.Bring the car.We'll meet Mitsuru at the mall."
Twenty minutes later Ryo arrived at Reiko's house.Haruka answered the door.
"Come in,Ryo.Would you like some tea while Reiko is getting ready?"
"No,thank you,Haruka-san."
Miki bought a pack of cigarettes while Mitsuru went looking for his girlfriend.Then he went in front of the movie theatre.Mitsuru waved his hand when he saw his cousin.He was accompanied by two young women.
"This is my cousin,Tokugawa Miki."
"Nice to meet you",Miki said,"I'm Miki."
"These are my girlfriend,Fujita Haruka and her sister,Fujita Reiko."
"Nice to meet you, Miki-san",Haruka said politely.
"Nice to meet you,Tokugawa-kun",said Reiko with a wide smile."I never knew that Mitsuru-san had such a gorgeous cousin."
"Reiko,an young lady should not say such things",said Haruka with an embarrassed look on her face.
"I know,nee-san.I apologize,Miki-kun."
"There's no need for that.Thank you for the compliment",Miki answered with a smile.
Now I'm sorry that I asked Ryo to come along.If only I knew ...
"I'm sorry I made you all...",Ryo's words broke off when he saw Miki standing in front of him.
Who is he?And what is he doing here?
Miki looked straight into Ryo's eyes and smiled.The young man standing in front of him looked as if he had seen a ghost.
"Let me introduce you",Mitsuru finally said."This is my cousin,Tokugawa Miki.Miki this is Watanabe Ryo.He is Miya's fiance's brother."
"Nice to meet you,Watanabe-kun."
Ryo did not answer.He just stood there dumbstruck.

So because it's a beautiful day I begin posting "MIKI'S SONG",the BL story I began writing a while back.
If you read it and want to comment on it you are more than welcome.I apologize in advance for any grammar mistake.Enjoy it and please tell me your opinion(good or bad).Be honest!I'm a big girl, I can take criticism.Your opinion will help me improve my writing skills.Or will convince me that I'm no good and I should do something else with my time.
Before I begin I'd like to dedicate this story to a few of my LJ friends:LADY BLACK CAT(who has become a good friend in the short period of time that passed since I joined LJ and who shares my love for Morimori and Harudaki),QUAINT TWILIGHT(whose translations of the M.o.B. novels are always a pleasure to read and who loves Seki Toshihiko's voice like I do), LABINGI(who shares my passion for writing and M.o.B.),MIAMIARA(who loves M.o.B. and Naoe kike I do),LUGIA NENA.
So this is it.
MIKI'S SONG
PROLOGUE
LA GUARDIA AIRPORT ,NEW YORK,UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Tokugawa Miki waited for his flight to be announced.He was returning home to Japan after studying for two years in a boarding school in New York.He left Japan after his parents and his two siblings died in a car accident.Now another terrible news made him return to the home he left behind.
When his flight was finally announced he took his handbag and boarded the plane.He opened a book and began reading.He found reading very relaxing,especially when he was traveling.The person sitting next to him was an older woman who seemed to feel uneasy.
"Are you alright?Do you need anything?" he asked politely turning his head towards the 45 year old woman who just visited her brother,a Japanese building engineer who was working at a project in New York.
She looked at him and smiled.It was obvious that she did not speak English.So he asked her the same question in Japanese.She answered that she was afraid of flying.Miki gave her his CD player,telling her that the music will help her relax.Soon after the woman fell asleep.
Miki continued to read for a while.
NARITA AIRPORT,TOKYO,JAPAN
Ryo rushed into the airport building.
I hope I'm not late or my aunt will be pissed.Why did I go shopping with Reiko?
He was so distracted that he bumped into someone and fell down on his buttocks.
"Are you alright?"a gentle voice asked him in an amused tone."You should pay more attention to where you're going."
Ryo looked up and his eyes met the calm,smiling eyes of a tall young man wearing a black suit.Ryo found himself staring at the young man while he helped him get up on his feet.
"I'm sorry",Ryo finally said,"for bumping into you".
"That's fine.But be more careful in the future."
Saying those words the tall young man headed towards the exit.Ryo watched him until he disappeared from his sight.Then he suddenly remembered his aunt.
Oh,shit.My aunt...
"I'm sorry for being late",Ryo said when he found his aunt .He took her luggage and drove her home.While he was driving he kept thinking about the man he bumped into in the airport.He had such beautiful eyes.He felt so strange when he looked into those eyes.It was as if he had seen them somewhere before.
Who was he?And where have I seen him before?
So that's it for now.I hoped you enjoyed reading it.More to come next week.
