Anime/ Manga- K-ON

Hahaha! Those out there who like reading Lucky Star and Azumanga Daioh! might like this cute and funny manga and anime K-ON! It's about 4 girls who want to save their high school music club even if they can't really play.



BUT! It's still funny, and it's interesting.







There are 2 songs I will mention in this post. One is called Fuwa Fuwa Time. This song is sung by the bassist of the band Mio Akiyama, who tends to be shy, but likes singing. The other song is the ending song of the anime. It's called Don't Say 'Lazy'. Those who have P.E. with me out there might know what song I'm talking about.







The picture shows the 4 characters in the story. Mio (Fuwa Fuwa singer) is the one with long black hair, and bangs.
Try reading the manga or watching the anime when you have time. ENJOY!

Anime/ Manga- Elfen Lied


Recently, I have been watching an anime called Elfen Lied. The story involves human mutations called "dicloniuses", who grow horns on their heads and possess telekinetic powers, in the form of invisible "arms" called vectors. The tendency for violence among dicloniuses varies among characters. Certain scientists contain them in a Facility in cells where they are subject to inhumane experiments to test their abilities or were they await execution for being too dangerous. An infectious virus is also associated with the mutation. This virus is spred through non-lethal contact with the vectors of a diclonius. The main non-mutant character in the story is Kouta, who ends up becoming icreasingly involved with these dicloniuses, as they seek refuge from the scientists. The main diclonius character is Lucy/Nyuu a killer whose alter ego is a hapless, and very cute child whose vocabullary and intelligence is quite limited. After a large amount of choice occurences the lives of these two characters becomes inexplicably intwined...

(Thank mangafox.com for the explanation!)


The opening song is called Lilium by Kumiko Noma. It is the Opening song for this anime. It's in latin (I think) and it's beautiful.


The picture is Lucy, the main character. My favorite character.
