Run with the Wind

 I've always been a fan of sports anime. Maybe I am not athletic myself but it has always been enjoyable watching people (well, 2D, technically xD) doing things I don't do. Seeing their determination and climbing up to the top of the ladder is something I don't do. I am just lazy for that lol. I love reading and watching at home... hmmm like "Prince" lol. Anyway, let's get to the story.

Run with the wind is about college students who aim to run in the Hakone Ekiden relay marathon, well technically, were forced to at first but then, in the end, they enjoyed running then yeah, it became everyone's aim. 

The story started with Kakeru, shoplifting, when Haiji found him and saved him, then invited him to be a part of their dormitory. Haiji was desperately looking for the tenth member of the dormitory, and Kakeru joining, is obviously a dream come true for Haiji. As the people inside the dormitory, the ten of them, party, Haiji announced that them being a part of the dormitory, is them being part of the track and field team lol. This is because the dormitory is actually the dormitory for the track and field team. Well, everyone didn't know so they were shocked and apparently, don't wanna be a track and field member. Well, they got their own issues, and apart from Haiji and Kaeru, they are all novices in the track and field sport. Well, technically, Nico-senpai is not totally a novice because he had experienced before but his built is big so he was forced to quit when he was in high school. Anyway, at first, since they are beginners, they really had a hard time running... especially that they didn't really like it but well, they were forced by Haiji lol and Prince was... uhm... threatened to be kicked out of the dorm if he didn't join lol. Well, at first they were slow, especially Prince, who is a manga club member and you know, spends all his life reading manga. But then, slowly, they got official track records and yeah, they were able to join the qualifier for the Hakone Ekiden. Surprisingly, they entered the top ten (they are literally the top 10) in the qualifier so they can join the relay marathon in Hakone Ekiden. In the end, they were able to be also at the top 10 of the Hakone Ekiden Relay so I literally smiled and oh my goodness the feelsssssssss.

I really liked the story. They were total novices and they tried their best as they solved their problems together. OOoooohhhh the character evolution!!!! I totally love the characters. At first, I hated Kakeru's character but ooohhh boy, he was changing throughout the anime. You can see everyone sacrificed a lot for their goals. Even Yuki, who was totally reluctant to run but at the end, wow, he helped Haiji and Shindo in managing and planning for the team lol. I like how the characters are so dynamic and it drew me a lot in this anime. And gahd I love how everyone did their best in the qualifiers and the relay marathon. Everyone, I mean everyone, literally gave their best especially Shindo, who was sick that time, just to be at their finish lines. 

Also, when Prince talked about other anime/manga sports mc, I literally smiled very wide because uhuh I can totally understand lol. Anyway, if you're into sports and you love dynamic characters uhuh and a great story, watch it. It's worth it. Really. 


P.S. If it's not still obvious, my favorite character is Prince "Akane Kashiwazaki" l always laugh whenever he runs at first HAHAHHAHA and ooohhhh boy, I almost cried when he got his first official track record huhuhuhuhu. I love you Prince <3 <3 <3 !!!!!!

Solo Leveling

Hiiiii! I dunno if you heard about this manhwa already, but if you still haven't, GO AND WATCH ITTTT!!!!

Solo Leveling or 나 혼자만 레벨업 (Na Honja Man Lebel Eop) which can be directly translated to I level up just alone, is a very interesting manhwa for it is about a lowest rank hunter, who strives to work hard even though he is very weak to earn money for his family. In a world where you can hunt to earn money, obviously, you'll work your ass off just to make both ends meet. However, him, being the "World's Weakest Hunter", as they call him, he gets injured even in "E rank dungeons", the lowest rank dungeons which supposedly, very easy dungeons.

This manhwa is like "The Gamer", if you have read that, but how do you call it... but darker??? I mean, The Gamer is very light to the feels that you can just read it without being bothered... But honestly? this one is better than "The Gamer" in my opinion. Though both of them got this "gamer/player" cheat, you can see how hard and difficult the MC experienced before being... uhm strong. I actually haven't read the light novel yet, though there is a translated version because I just can't read machine translation versions. There is no translated LN by human as of now, but still waiting for it. Well, the manhwa alone is really intriguing, but if you can't wait, and can read Korean, here's the link of the raw for the LN:

If you wanna read the manhwa, here's the link:

P.S. I recommended it to all my friends, and boy, they are crazy for this right now!!! UHUH
P.S. THE EVOLUTION OF MC IS REALLY GREAT ESPECIALLY HIS LOOKS GAHD

Fates and Furies



Uhmm... I just finished watching the episode 16 of Fates and Furies and boy, THAT.WAS.SO.INTENSE. This drama surely hooks me every episode. As a matter of fact, I'm not really into melodrama but I'm a fan of Lee Min Jung so I decided to watch this. Surprisingly, her leading man is her leading man in her 2014 series, Cunning Single Lady. I really loved their chemistry there so this really gives me a lot of motivation to watch this.
Oh gahd. Goo Hae Ra (Lee Min Jung) sure does have a tough life here, huh. But amazingly, unlike other girls in other dramas, she is so tough here and didn't act like a damsel in distress, always waiting to be saved by a man, though okay, episode 16 is an exception for she was attacked by men, so she called the guy, but I mean, ya know, whenever she is being bullied, she doesn't slouch then act like she can do it in front of people but actually she can't and waiting to be saved. I really like her character that whenever she is being bullied, she stands up uhuh. I haven't finished watching the whole series, just until episode 16, but oh. my. gahd!!!!! THAT KISS IN THE END OF EP 16!!!! AND THE TEARS OF THE LEADING MAN OH MY GAHD!!!!!!!! YOU CAN SEE HOW MUCH HE CARES FOR HER!!!! AND THE CHEMISTRY OH MY GAHD! I CAN FEEL THE OXYTOCIN BEING SECRETED, OKAY? HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Sadly, I hate this feeling whenever things are looking good, ya know, the guy falls for her, then in the back of my mind, I know, sooner or later, he will know about her plan, ya know, to seduce him! So I just can't with thinking what conflict would happen again urghhhh. Anyway, it's too early for that hehehehhehehehe. GONNA CONTINUE WATCHING EPISODE 17, CIAOOOOO~

Hi! It's your girl, Ruka!!

I know, I know, it's been a long time since I updated this blog. Lately, I watched an anime but I haven't finished watching the OVA yet, so I'm gonna write about it after watching the OVA because season 1 and season 2 are not just enough!!! HAHAHAHA
Anyway, lately, I've been watching UNPRETTY RAPSTAR (UR) 1 & 3 (korean rap competition for female rappers) and yes, I am so addicted to it. As a matter of fact, I was not really a fan of rap before. I just enjoy listening to rap when it's part of an anime ost or a japanese song. (uhuh, I know, I am so biased xD) So why did I start watching the show? uhmm... Hyorin, the former SISTAR member posted the new song (I don't know, advertised?) of a certain singer. During that time, I was really bored and tried looking up this song which is entitled "Down" by Jessi. The concept of the song is sexy, and amusingly, I like it. I also became interested with the singer because her voice is just... I dunno, different? from most of the Korean singers. So yeah, I researched about her and I found this program (UR) and just watched it out of boredom.

At first, I was just looking at the clips but then, I got interested so I searched for the program itself. I wanted to watch it full. GIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLL~~~ I never thought I would LOVE (I CAN'T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH) JESSI TO THE BONE! ASDFDSFDGFDHKFHDJGHLSGHLSDGDALFKHFDLKGHDFLGHDFGHDSKHSDGLDSGG GAHD REALLY if ever she comes here, damn, I would spend money for the first time just to watch her concert! She's a great singer and a great rapper. She is so lovely. Really.

This is one of the songs she made. I am totally inlove with this! <3 I want you to listen to thisssss <3

Anyway, I am really sleepy because it's very late and my head is spinning very bad right now. Perhaps later I'm gonna post again, so ciao~

PS. Please watch Jessi's songs
Laterrrr

I remember back then when I was in high school, I listened to this song a lot. Back then, I didn't have a music player. My friend downloaded this song for me and put it on his phone so I would be able to listen to this song even if I was in school. I reeeaaaallly love this song. It is very nostalgic. This song gives me a refreshing feeling yet there's a glimpse of pain. I remember back then, I was so into the feeling of pain. I loved angst. I love unrequited love. I love stories and songs which can give me emotional pain. I was so naive. Now, I feel like I got stress and pain phobia. xD
