Owatari 733 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 As a racial minority woman living in America I'm worried about what's yet to come. The fact that I live in a blue state doesn't really mean much at this point. America, what have you done? *sobbing* It's a terrifying time to be alive. Living in a heavily blue state gives me some solace, but then Trump will still be president with a republican house and senate, possible supreme court nominees...

Owatari 733 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I remember random people who weren't even into Asian music having this on their MySpace pages. I remember it premiered on BET (106 and park?) and was like wtf? lol Maybe they saw it there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owatari 733 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I've been so busy that I didn't really miss this place... Also, while this place wasn't up, I found myself to be a bit more relaxed as far as being online. I focused on Arama more. I just feel that posting Japanese things here and on Arama to be a bit... redundant. Like I really am thinking of just dropping the digital daily chart. It's become more of a chore than something I really enjoy. I feel like a weekly chart really is enough. And with Arama, I just care less and less about posting about things I really don't care about. But this has been a thing for a while and everyone knows. Like I have zero desire to use my free time posting about LDH acts and YUI clones. If they're not posted by someone, they're just not posted. Similar to how a lot of idol groups aren't posted by anyone. I also slept a lot more. And I heard basically nothing about KPop. I think the one time this site was down that I heard about KPop was Shinee and BoA on FNS. It like really put things into even more perspective in a strange way. As if I didn't already know how niche KPop is in reality. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owatari 733 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 TC is only for special events. I went on for 2 or 3 special events last month and there was only one other person there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owatari 733 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Jamming to the underrated Utada bop, For You <3 I was listening to that in the car yesterday! Also just booked my hotel room for Japan. I was leaning toward the direct flight, but went for the flight with a layover in Vancouver because why not kill two birds with one stone. Plus the hotel room in Vancouver was free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owatari 733 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) Your trips to Japan remind me I need to fly there. I've never been outside Europe! This is actually my first time outside the country! Although I've been to a few states across the U.S. Sempai , we will be in same country *_* Have fun!! :D Do it!!!! Lol Thanks!

Owatari 733 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) I can't believe Shota released a single without auto tune. Just started listening to Kavka's EP and I like what I hear so far. Especially Tachiagare. Still sad that my computer refuses to play Ohashi Trio's "Blue" in full.

Owatari 733 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) Just finished Yakuza 0 and it's probably one of the best games I've played recently. I'm glad I decided to give the series a try. Edited March 3, 2017 by Owatari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owatari 733 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 (edited) Can someone point me in the direction of non-ballad songs by Ken Hirai? Preferably post-2010? Plus One, Soredemo Shita, and Grotesque are all singles from his latest album and none of those are ballads. Plus One and Soredemo Shita are the better tracks though. Grotesque http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x48it88_ken-hirai-feat-namie-amuro-grotesque-german-subtitles_music Plus One http://aramajapan.com/news/music/musicvideo/ken-hirai-unveils-colorful-short-pv-for-plus-one/58727/ Edited March 4, 2017 by Owatari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owatari 733 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Twin, do you have this album? For some reason, they decided to make a video for this song two years after the fact. And ZOMBIE-CHANG really is the alt it girl now. I just saw this yesterday and was so confused as to why they made a music video to a 2 year old song. I've also been watching a bunch of random BoA videos. Edited April 13, 2017 by Owatari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owatari 733 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I like Ayaka Ide latest album I prefer the first half of the album, but overall it's really good. Joker and Zutto are probably my favorites at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
