No leaving ever.

Okay! Shall take a break from accounts to blog. :D

I'll make a rant on a game instead. This time, Ib.

First heard some guy classmates talking about this game, Ib during May, i think. They seem really excited so i joined the conversation and they told me more about this game.

So they said it was a horror game. WHAT HORROR NO WAY UH-UH. I'm a total chicken when it comes to literally ANYTHING horror-related. Even ghost stories! Reminiscing the days where i played Hotel 626 when i was 12 with a bunch of equally chicken guy friends back in primary school. I had nightmares for a few nights. D':

Despite them telling me it's not really scary, i still didn't have the courage (or time :/) to play the game. Then Felix told me that it's a 8-bit game and it wasn't really scary as there weren't any ghosts and all. Just some moving potraits and sculptures. (Oops is that a spoiler? :D) That sorta relieved me abit. But still, the thought of playing a horror game alone still terrifies me. D:

After a few months, Ib suddenly got really popular and even cosplays of the game were out! Many said that it's a really good game and worth a play! So i finally decided to do some research about the game and even downloaded it wtf WHAT AM I THINKING?! D: And even twinneh Joanne played the game and made a review of it here.

So during the Raya holidays, i dragged my semi-chicken (LOL. She's not really a chicken but her balls of steel are greater than mine! xD) sister along for company!

Wtf why is the opening music so creepy?! Makes me want to 'exit' already LOL!

So the game started off quite smoothly, until...

SHIT SOMETHING'S GONNA HAPPEN NOOOOOO.

Afterwards, the music got really creepy and eerie but i still proceeded... With a heavy heart orz. Some videos on YouTube has shown the player playing in window mode (like Twinneh too) but sis stubbornly wanted it on full screen mode. ;___;

Actually the game is sorta like a puzzle game where you have to solve something to get to another stage. Oh, and the creepy music changes in the game too. Wonder where Kouri get all those eerie tracks. Basically it's the music that's making the whole game intimidating plus a few life-threatening moments like getting chased by The Lady in Red and those headless mannequins. D:

But from the entire game, this was the part that scared me shitless.

And i made Garry die. T_____T I'm so sorry Ib!

Ib has mulitiple endings. And to get those better ones it's best if you play the game with a walkthrough. But despite playing the game with the guide of a walkthrough, i still got a very crappy ending which was the " Together, forever " one which was mad crreepy. :S MARY YOU STALKER.

I guess i wasn't paying much attention to the walkthrough and wanted to TRY to finish the game myself. But i ended up getting the sucky ending FML. :/

So i went on YouTube and watched all the other endings and The Forgotten Portrait was the saddest IMO. Poor Garry! T________T

Conclusion is! This game is really simple but with it's awesome plot, it manages to provide a very satisfying game play. PLUS the creepy music. It's more of 'disturbing' than 'scary' IMO. I guess even the chicken of all chickens will manage to play through without getting a heart attack lol.

Haha Garry's so funny! xD

I enjoyed myself very much while playing this game. But i was grabbing a pillow all along... Just incase. The game has it's very kancheong moments but nothing too terrifying. Definetely worth a play! Or if you're planning to start playing horror games, give this for a start!

I actually dislike Mary in the game... But i kinda feel like cosplaying her. Would love to cosplay as Ib instead but i don't think i'll be able to pull Ib off well. Feel as though i'm more suited for Mary. :o Hmm, might add Mary in my Comic Fiesta plan.

Ending this post with a very spoiler-y and disturbing video from the game. :3

Now, back to freaking accounts. Hello numbers. :/

" No matter what, don't ever touch me. Okay? "

So here i am taking a break after one and a half week of SPM trials. It's Saturday tomorrow but i still have to go to school due to replacement classes for the Raya holidays. Usually, i couldn't be bothered to attend but i have to this time cauase i have to take my Sejarah 1 paper.

So stupid lah! Go to school freaking early in the morning with no lessons whatsoever & have to wait till 11-ish just to sit for a one hour and fifteen minites paper?! (School finishes at 12.30pm btw)   Stupidest exam arrangement ever. -.-

One more week of trials and i'm done. Though i have to admit that i didn't really do well for certain subjects so far like Add Maths and Mod Maths. I was born to suck at Maths fml. :/ And my school will be using the exam papers they set themselves instead of the usual JPS ones. Which means PLUS DIFFICULTY. Kiasu school is kiasu sighs.

Anyways! Here's a short review on a short anime film i've watched sort of recently. xD (I know this blog post's title sounds very wrong but it relaes to the film!)

Gosh I just can't express my feelings to this really awesome awesome movie! T^T

 

" Hotarubi no Mori E "

 

or

 

" In the Forest of the Fireflies Light "

 

 

I have seen a few people on my Facebook timeline talking about this particular anime film along with the above picture. And they seem pretty exicted and were all "OMG SO NICE I LOVE IT SO MUCH". But it didn't really interest me so i didn't bother watvhing. However, the picture seem really interesting i kept thinking about it. :S

 



So one fine day during the Raya holidays, i decided to take a *cough* short *cough* break from studying and watch this!

 

And boy did i enjoy it! It's only a short 40-minutes movie but the impact and the feeling it carries was so intense and strong. And yes, i teared up during the last bit. So yeah, short spoiler. Sad movie. :C

 

I've never in a very long time seen a piece so heartwarming yet heartbreaking. Lol i'm serious! It's very touching and the love and relationship shared between the two main characters is so pure and innocent i don't even... T_______T

 

"I can't wait for summer to come around. When I'm away from you, even though I can't be around crowds, I want to go see you."

 

IMO, this show is sorta like a mix of Spirited Away and Natsume Yuujinchou. (HAH spoiler again, sorry!) And when i looked it up, this show was originally a manga written by, you guessed it, the mangaka of Natsume Yuujinchou, Midorikawa-sensei! :D It was one of her earlier pieces before she started on Natsume. And only around 2011, it was made into a short film. Hmm, no wonder the main guy character looked somewhat familiar. :3

 

To sum it up, it's something slice-of-life-ish with a little bit of spiritual twist in it. It's sorta slow-paced, making the movie seem a little longer than what it actually is. (For me... Not sure how others feel.)

 

It's really worth a watch if you're a Natsume fan! :D

 

Shall end this post with the film's ending quote!

 

"I probably won't be able to look forward to summer for a long time. My chest will hurt. My tears will be overflowing. But this warmth in my hands and these summer memories will live on in my heart forever."



My cure from boredom.

And it is none other than - WATCHING ANIMES! 8D

So the Raya holidays have started and so does studying for my SPM trials. *groans* Parents have been pestering me to study like everyday! Seriously don't have the mood to study sighs. And seeing all those rajin tweets and statuses from friends and school mates makes me more pressured. PEEPOL Y U SO HARDWORKING. D: Someone need to bless me with some rajin power. A trait lacking on a lazee bum like me.

Other than studying, i also managed to do some catching up on animes! (Which i happen to do more than studying hah.) Like finally! After so long! *shiawase*

First, i started off with a little bit of Inu x Boku SS.

Watched halfway and eventually... Gave up. Urgh i just don't get the storyline and all. My instincts were right, something in the story will eventually make me drop it like Guilty Crown. Couldn't exactly pinpoint on what tho. Maybe because i was disappointed on how Soushi really was. I mean, looking at all those picture of him made me think "Owhhhh he's so hotttt!" but then he was rather... Sissy? Idk. Maybe that's how a butler is supposed to be? Like Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji? I was all blek and yerrr cause of Sebastian. Apologies to all Soushi fans who might view this post. Just feeling le disppointed. Oh and the storyline was sorta crappy. And again apologies to all InuBoku fans heh. :3

Annnnnd on to Kuroko no Basuke! *Slight spoilers ahead?*
Ohhh i'm so addicted to this series now. *w* As mentioned on my previous post, i have been reading the manga and decided to start watching the anime. Up till now, it has 20 episodes and i'm proud to announce that i have watched all of it in just 4 days. 5 episodes per day heh! xD

What i really like about this show is that all of the characters are really likeable and cute! I mean, there isn't anyone i particularly dislike or hate in this series. (Excluding those side characters. I mean some of them are annoying but they only have small parts so i don't really mind... Or care. :3) And i have to say that the characters looks x100 better on anime. Not because it's colored or whatever but the drawing is really different. But the anime seems to have miss out some of the small and incredibly minor events from the manga. Ah well, if one were to watch the anime without reading the manga, he would not feel that there's something missing. But since i did read the manga, i noticed that they didn't include some smaller events.

Watching the funny and humorous parts on the anime was pretty entertaining. Kept replaying them over and over again for a good laugh! 8D

On to my list of fav charas!

This is Kuroko Tetsuya, the main protagonist of the series! SO ADORABLE RIGHT, RIGHT? :3
How can someone so cute be so cool and calm and not those typical wimpy and useless types?! Plus he's really wise and all. He's really calm, have never really seen him being comical.

This is Kise Ryota! <3 SO HOT RIGHT, RIGHT? *w* Eventhough he has those typical pretty boy face but he's really down-to-earth in the series. Has many fangirls due to being a model, yet he's not proud, stuck-up or snobby. Ahhhhh that's why he's one of my favs. <3 But he's sort of manja? A little bit whinny but it's okaaaaaaaaay. <3

This is Midorima Shintaro. :3 What i like about him is because HE'S A TSUNDERE <3 It's really rare to see a male tsundere in anime series cause usually it's the girls who are tsunderes. But but he's so cute lah, when he acts cold and aloof! Typical tsun no = yes personality, denying the truth and all. It's just too cute! *w* One of my favs too. And his long lower eyelashes heh!

Lastly, Akashi Seijuro! His full face haven't been shown on the anime tho. Only his back, eyes and lower parts of his face. But this pic above was shown briefly in one of the openings, or was it closing? Have to admit that i'm a sucker for red haired guys. *w* Hmm, Akashi is those intimidating and quiet type (According to the manga) and can sometimes be scary. D8 But i still love him nonetheless. <3 Red heads are <3

There are many more that i favor! Like i said, everyone in the show is really likeable! Absolutely love the entire Seirin basketball team. Especially Hyuuga, Kiyoshi and Izuki. Koga, Mitobe and Tsuchida are pretty funny too but too bad they're not the main players. :C The 3 first-year players are really funny too but they don't have much screen time! And Riko is one cool kickass chick. >8D I'm quite cool with Kagami and Aomine too but don't really like them as much. But it means i still favour them! Kasamatsu and Takao are super cute and funny too.

Murasakibara as well as Akashi haven't really fully debut in the anime yet but i love them too! Himuro too, awaiting for their complete debuts!

Still have many animes to catch up! Have also been catching up with my all time anime Naruto. More to come. But i shall bury myself in books first. D:<
