New Castle!!!
Kan: Welcome to the brand new Metanorn! Now hosted by Kokidokom!!! I wanna thank 7 very much because he totally broke my chains off to widen my blogging experience. This would definitely be more fun and exciting! After 9 months of blogging at the free WordPress.com blog, 5 months after moving on to another WordPress.com blog, 379 posts in there, 687 tags, 2,617 comment and 97,412 hits and counting, it’s sad bidding farewell but happy for a new door opening. And now I’m glad and excited to work and learn here on a real WordPress blog!!! As like what 7 says: “WOOOT!”. I can work out more on my designs because there’s much more to do here!
Tsui: Well, I’m just dragged along as usual but I’m happy that Metanorn’s being hosted and Kanzie’s happy. I wanna express my utmost gratitude to 7, for providing a host for the blog. I’ll really work harder being Kanzie’s co-blogger here and a loyal servant (< I’m forced to say that line) 😛

First Banner: +GOTHIC COOL+ [Shiki and Rima of Vampire Knight]
What’s new?
As you can see, we now have a new and cooler theme! Yipee! It’s so much fun learning a little bit on CSS, with the huge help of 7. The backmost layer contains the black background with design. Next to it are lighter layers to match it. I also made the headers of the sidebars to add a touch of (starry) flava. The header of course is Shiki and Rima from Vampire Knight, and I’m proud to say that they’re my very first official header here 🙂 Another obvious change is that there are two sidebars now. Though they’re still under construction and testing on how would I put things in the proper places lol. There’s a cool Anime-NTM corner on the left side (btw, the photos you see would be their photos for the next photoshoot. Trust me, it’s beyond cool and I made everyone photos but still the elimination is for tomorrow 🙂 )
I’m also glad that I’m writing again in my own username of “Kanzeon” and not metan0rn anymore lol. Another thing to love is that I can fiddle around more with my blog design ^_^. And I chose Kokidokom because I know that it would be the next big thing and 7 is very nice to also cater fresh new bloggers. So anyone who wants to join the family, (I personally wanna recommend FuyuMaiden and Xiao Jie lol) feel free to contact him or go to the irc channel 🙂 .
I Love MEtanorn.
I officially made brand new set of banners 🙂 From now, it would be the “I Love ME-tanorn Metanorn” banner series for it would last after Valentines Day.
I sticked into one main color motif background for the banners and it’s not red, it is black. Why black? Because I love black. Black looks good. Clear shampoo XDDD~… And NO it’s not that I’m emo (EWW) and not also bitter (LOL), it’s just that black looks so cool and modern and trendy and sophisticated and elegant and seductive… so yeah… there’s no point XD I just like to paint Valentines Day with sophisticated black XD…
…So first banner up!

New Banner: ~i like you
~i like you
Lol the title of my banners gets weirder and weirder! Hahahahahahahaha… Anyway, this snowy banner was just so random because my real intention is to make a Rise Kujikawa (Persona 4) banner but I found this adorable vector randomly instead (credits to the owner btw).
Random Drawings: Bloggers Manga-fied!
I’m jumping aboard to the latest bandwagon to show some drawings 🙂 though I’m not making some unofficial mascots or anything (except for the first three animals) ;P… I’m just plain bored, which made me thought of a different idea to make a little artbook for my blogosphere friends being in their manga forms ^_^. Plus, I figured out that this would be the only way to give presents to y’all this Christmas ^_^ (if that bishie gallery wasn’t enough XD). Btw, I suck at drawing chibis T.T
Before continuing, please keep in mind that the characters are just based on my personal view on them. And I’m forgive me for doing this without your permissions, I was just bored to death that caused me to do this stuff (and this is just for the lulz)… I also don’t know how y’all look like IRL (whether if you’re a guy or girl, have glasses or not, long or short hair, etc…) so I just used my imagination getting into the character designs ^_^ . And again, they’re not basically mascots (just… manga-fied people XD~ well, except for three). You can use them if you would want to 🙂
And I also used the pages feature for suspense on every surprise blogger on each page XD! Good Luck! The first three pages are chibis in animal costumes though 🙂

New Banner: musique d’hiver
musique d’hiver
Well, music somewhat inspired me these past few days so I decided to make a music-related one without losing its winter/Christmas touch. The result is a Nodame Cantabile banner!!! I chose brown tones because it really looks warm and yummy. “musique d’hiver” means “winter music” ^_^ (I even checked freetranslations xD). My favorite part of my banner is the piano keys effect and the G-clef-inspired text backdrop. Yeah Kairu, I’m also learning the piano XD…
Also on a random note, another thing that inspired me to do is my new bob haircut ‘ala Nodame. It’s the shortest hair I ever had (well, since my baby days XD) because I always kept it long ever since then. If I had been emo on my previous banner, I had move on to that (the new hair speaks for it!!!) THE REBEL HAMSTER IS HERE XD!!!
ZOMG it’s 33 Degrees Celsius here but it’s snowing!!!
Yeah, lol. If you have noticed it, there’s falling snow now on my site XD. I was reallycurious at first on how Kairu and Kitsune had snow falling on their blogs. Now, I jumped in the wagon and sprinkled some on to Metanorn as well XD… It’s really nice IMO because I could at least experience snow here even though it’s a tropical country T.T…
Btw, new banner!!! I must say that this is a REALLY weird banner because I put it up on upside down. Well, there’s a really deep personal meaning to it why I did that XD… And also, it adds to the effect of the falling snow. It’s looks like the snow falls upside down from the ground O_O… Hell yeah for mystery and weirdness. The wallpaper is from Kanon and credits to Animepaper.net ^_^…
Nagi Christmas Banner FTW!
Yeah… The title says it 😀 . 2nd Christmas banner features Nagi!!! I also apologize for the lack of posts lately because our college entrance exams is coming up tomorrow. Tsuiteru and I will be back on covering Kannagi 8 and 9 as soon as the exams are over 🙂 Wish us luck because our future is held on that sheet of paper! Plus I cannot cheat with him because we won’t be seatmates in that time, our seats will be shuffled T.T… XD LOL I don’t really cheat that much XD… Nevermind what I just said. Anyway, enjoy the new banner and tell me what you think of it!!!
Oh and before I forgot, watch out for the premiere of Anime’s Next Top Model Cycle 2 this weekend!!! Not 10, but 11 girls will duke it out to become the fiercest and most modeleqsue anime girl! [Ani-NTM Cycle 2 OP Here]
Special Mention: Welcome Back AMAYALEE!!!
*back to serious studying*
An Early Christmas Banner!
New banner for the Holiday Season!!! Yeah I know it’s so early but I really feel the Christmas spirit, if it weren’t for all of the lights and sparkles around the city, children singing carols, and the smell of money being cashed away…
The banner features Kyon and Haruhi from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I added “Santa’s Little Helper” (actually, it’s “Helpers“) for the nonsensical randomness because as you can see, Kyon (looking super hot in that reindeer costume) is helping the Santa Haruhi… Lol, and think of this blog as Santa’s Little Helper, because Tsui and I give gifts not only to the nice, but also to the naughty XD. (Did I mentioned that Kyon looks hot… and naughty?)
