    --> (post a character with 'tsu' or 'zu' somewhere in his/her name in the shoutbox!)

    How to Play: Join up the names! Taking the last syllable/sound of the previous name, suggest another name (of an anime/manga character or seiyuu) with that sound in any part of the name EXCEPT the last syllable. Please post the new name (and the anime/manga it's from) in my shoutbox. (Just above this.) No consecutive entries, please -- you cannot play this one alone. XD
    When I get tired of reviewing, I'll pick one character from this list to feature in a post, regardless of whether I previously know him/her or not! :) That page will eventually be linked on this list.
    E.g....Hirano Aya (Seiyuu)--> (next one should have 'ya' in the name, NOT in the end) Okuyama Masumi (Nodame Cantabile) --> Misato Kaoru (Moyashimon).......

Maria Holic 11 - Tchaikovsky Syndrome Idiomised

Published by jennkei at 11:58 am under 2009 Winter, Maria+Holic, anime Edit This

Oh my gah. For once I hate using notepad to write my entries. -_- Disconnected my laptop so I could see if it’d connect to the other one…turns out nope. And I cleared the post I’d had all written out. T_T I would use Word…but it sucks and is big. Anyway. Hindsight is 20/20. -_- Screenshots, read on, as usual. I got lazy with screenshots this time since it was 2am when I was watching and I really wanted to sleep. -wry- So no captions either. Do people actually read my captions?? XD

Repeated post, here we go. Maria Holic 11 was rather annoying — it focused on a young male teacher (who’s also a priest) in the school, Kanae. He’s practically as bad as Kanako when it comes to a LOT of internal thinking. This wasn’t really bad by itself — until you realise he uses idioms. And it’s not too bad since I actually understand some of the idioms without a need for extra translation…but apparently the anime producers didn’t think so, because they added translations in at the side! And because I’m a serial sub reader, I had to pause to read the subs. T_T

Ah well. Right. In any case, Kanae says he’s worried about Kanako, who was the only student in the class who’d failed the midterms. Personally, I think it’s just another manifestation of his Mariya (who, after all, is Kanako’s roommate)Holic. And Matsurika Holic. Yes, he’s a Great Sinner who Likes Women and Trap! (And also Ayari, at the end. ._. More Kanakoness..)

In any case, he wrangles a dorm visit after bribing GOD with a plasma TV and DVD player. Smart of her! XD

    @Jay-san: Lol forgot I was kinda incoherent. XD I yanked my laptop’s computer supply out, and’d forgotten to save…and Notepad doesn’t have autosave. -wry- Might look into an alternative that’s smaller than Winword but has autosave..

    Hindsight is 20/20. It seemed a good idea at the moment.
