a change would do you good...

... or so I've heard. Hence, in time with the new year, I figured I should change the layout and some userpics. =)

I am SO loving Ikuta Toma right now (see userpic). I get all giddy whenever I see or hear him. *blush*  The Honey and Clover live-action drama needs more love!!! I also added added/changed a couple of userpics including Yamada from HachiKuro and Shirota Yuu *melts*. 

This LJ layout has a header, so I made a header for it... hehe, it's not made especially for this though, this header was made for my anime blog header and just cropped it and tweaked it a little to fit the alotted header space for this LJ one (lazy me, I know. ~Lol)  This LJ layout is courtesy of grrliz from [info]thefulcrum  and [info]gossymer

On a whim, I wanted to see  Amanda Bynes' new comedy film Sydney White but when my day off came, it was no longer in the theaters. Phooey! My brother wanted to see National Treasure 2 instead but I wanted to see something that's more of a comedy... so we settled for Alvin and the Chipmunks instead... it was shown late here because of a local film festival during the Christmas season where they show only local films... Anyway, I enjoyed it. I've always been quite fond of those chipmunks, watching the cartoons on TV when I was little. They did an acapella version of "Funkytown" in the film and I thought it was awesome! Haha.

Yep, I better go to bed or I might oversleep and miss my graveyard shift later. Heh. (^_^')

lights, camera, live-action!

Oooh... a couple of live-action dorama news... Honey and Clover + a 2nd Detective Conan installment.

Honey and Clover:  It  will be adapted into a Japanese Drama Series, Hachimitsu to Kuroba, and will be aired on FujiTV, Tuesday 21:00 starting January 8, 2008, with Narumi Riko as Hanamoto Hagumi and Ikuta Toma as Takemoto Yuta. (from: drama wiki )

Detective Conan:  The new live-action episode is tentatively titled "Kudo Shinichi no Fukkatsu! Kuro no Soshiki to no Taiketsu" (Return of Kudo Shinichi! Showdown with the Black Organization). Conan attends a party for the "Miss Japanesque" awards, where he happens to eat a cake that temporarily transforms him back into Shinichi Kudo (Oguri). While there, a murder takes place and he has to solve the case. The special will also feature the first live-action appearance of the Black Organization. Shun Oguri, Tomoka Kurokawa and Takanori Jinnai are reprising their roles as Shinichi, Ran and Kogoro Mori.  NTV will air the special during Winter 2007. (from Tokyograph)

I'm curious with the Honey and Clover drama adaptation... I loved the anime! I haven't really seen the movie since I didn't hear much positive reviews about it and I didn't want to be disappointed. I think this drama would at least have more time to explore the characters and the story and may be able to make a more faithful adaptation of the manga/anime. (I hope the Nomiya/Yamada arc will be included! *fingers crossed*)

The Detective Conan live-action wasn't epic and looked a bit kiddie but I found it enjoyable to watch so I'm kind of looking forward to the 2nd live-action special. Oh, and Haibara will be there as well along with Gin from the Black Org... .this would be interesting. Here's a photo of the cast including the actress playing Haibara and the actor playing Gin, Prof Agasa and Conan. Haha. I appreciate that they're trying to make the live-action characters look like their anime/manga counterparts. :P  (see photo/cast guide)

edit:  I forgot to add the Nodame Cantabile Paris Special airing in Jan 2008! I absolutely loved the live-action series of that one, so I'm really looking forward to see that!

no, no, noooooo!!!

I just heard an anime news that affects me greatly... Darker than Black  has been licensed by FUNimation... after merely 12 eps, its now licensed! Aaaahhhhh! Do you know what that means?! No more subbed episodes for me... *sits in a sad corner, Tamaki-style* 

The fansub group that I'm familiar with who's working on DtB have announced that they'd now be dropping it from their projects as it's now licensed ... I'm not sure about the other groups, but they most likely will follow suit and drop it too (I'm still hoping one of them will keep subbing it  *sheepish grin*) Obviously, it'd be removed from crunchyroll too. :(

It's probably good news that it's been licensed, I guess... that means more DtB followers and possibly more episodes or something like that... but still, I'm sad that I won't be able to watch it  subbed anymore. I wish I can speak Japanese, then I'd have no problem seeing it raw... *sighs*  Anyway, I wish DtB all the best, in my opinion, it's a really good series so it's kind of not that surprising that it got licensed right away.... but still... *sighs, sighs* 

On a lighter note... HARRY POTTER!!! My brother and I already booked theater tickets for the 5th film on July 11th and as a bonus we'll watch it on IMAX!  It'd be my first time watching a film on IMAX format, so this should be interesting... I just hope the film is done well. ^_^
