LION – May’n and Megumi Nakajima [Sheryl and Ranka]
I will be out for a while since I will be attending our retreat… It’ll be actually really fun, imagine the mountains… (actually, I have no idea if there’s anything near our retreat house); the fresh air (actually, we will be confined inside so I wonder how we would breathe…); and lastly, enjoying the free time that’ll be given to us(they will make us cry, pray then FORCE us to sleep on 10:30 pm only…)…
I am a huge fan for the Macross Frontier soundtracks because they really do pick the good songs on the series. The current OP theme is entitled Lion, sung by the two beautiful maidens of Macross Frontier: Sheryl (May’n) and Ranka (Megumi Nakajima). I love them both but personally, I’m surprised on Megumi Nakajima’s performance as Ranka here because I didn’t knew that she could pull off a powerful song along with May’n. This is truly one of the best OP songs I’ve seen and heard for a while. For a trivia, Megumi Nakajima is half-Japanese and half-Filipina.
THYME – 「Fly Away」
[:Download “「Fly Away」” by THYME here:]
J-pop band THYME gave us 2 great OP songs in a row. They are the hitmakers of To-Love-Ru‘s “Forever We Can Make It!”. “「Fly Away」” is their current song which is the OP song for Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto ~Natsu no Sora~. I really love the song and it’s now currently looping up my iPod. It gives the laid-back feel a rockin’ twist. I put up the download link above for sharing. Btw, here’s the PV of the song:
Rihanna – Disturbia
Ok, this is an another non-anime related post but I can’t help it! This song is totally stuck on my iPod and it’s been everywhere here! I also danced this song lols on our P.E. class… This is the newest single of Rihanna entitled Disturbia…
The video is quite interesting since it’s gothic, scary and freaky but still maintains sensuality and attitude. I LOVE IT!!!
Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu ED: Hitosashiyubi Quiet!
[:DOWNLOAD Hitosashiyubi Quiet! HERE:]
MOEMOEMOE!!! The ED theme for Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu is suns by N’s or none other than the über-kawaii seiyuus on the show: namely Mai Goto, Kaori Shimizu, Kana Ueda, Rina Sato and Nogizaka Haruka herself, Mamiko Noto. The ED sequence is a very fun dance number with meidos everywhere. See below for the lyrics.

Soul Eater New ED: Style
httpvh://youtube.com/watch?v=hGGJGL5yWlE
Style by Kana Nishino
What I totally love about the new ending sequence of Soul Eater is the song itself. It has a lazy feel to it that really suits being an ED theme. About the video, it focuses more on the Maka x Soul relationship and I found it really cute, especially on the last part (well, that’s the only part where Maka is not walking and running)… The new ED sequence premieres on Soul Eater’s 14th episode.
☆Blabberings☆: Gender-Bending of HaruKi Edition!
– I absolutely love the gender-bending project of Haruki Suzumiya! I know that this is WAY too long ago but I still can’t stop listening to some songs from the character albums like:
1.) Seishun Ii ja nai ka – Tsuruya-senpai (Tsuruya-san) [Total MOE-ness!!!]
2.) Parallel Days – Haruki (Haruhi) [The male version is actually better than the original!]
3.) SELECT – Yuuki (Yuki) [LOL. This one reminds me of Yuki from Fruits Basket!!!]
Random Question: Do you want the upcoming Haruhi Suzumiya 2 as genderbend-ed?
Thelma Aoyama – My Dear Friend
This is the ED theme of Shion no Ou. Honestly, I don’t really watch the show but I really love this song. Her voice is very smooth and nice to listen to. This song tops the anime singles chart for the first half of 2008 (complete list on Japanese blog: MUSIC ROOM)
