PCゲーム「あさき、ゆめみし」
ED「鎮命歌－しずめうた－」
作詞：瀧沢一留 / 作曲：八乙女葦菜 / 編曲：azure studio

金色（こんじき）の波ゆらす
時渡る　彷徨い人
永き旅路の果て
輝く月へと還る

いとしき　日々は過ぎて
懐かしい郷に馳せる想い
遠く近く肌を撫ぜる
たゆとう淡い導き

安らぎの地は遠く彼方
送り火の示す先へ
この夜よどうか明けないで
迷い道の晴れるまで

果て無き　天（そら）を抱き
導きあう永久（とわ）の調べ
綻ぶ花にも似て
優しき色に染め抜く

鎮める詞（ことば）遠く響く
今はただ深く眠れ
欠けた月はやがて満ちゆく
出会い別れ　繰り返す

眠れる心遠く高く
明（あか）き陽の昇る空へ
この夢よどうか醒めないで
目覚めの鐘　鳴り響く

Of course, nobody seems to have an idea about the chant-like ending part...

（´3´）～♪ O hay I didn't know about this before.

[Daisy2] Sangoku Rensenki ~Otome no Hyouhou!~ (三国恋戦記～オトメの兵法！～)
All-ages PC otome game based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, slated for a 2009 release. Artwork by Suzuken (スズケン), scenario by Tom (トム) and I'm-too-lazy-to-take-a-guess-on-the-romanization, uh, Chuuji? (宙地).
Story seems to be quite standard fare; normal schoolgirl Yamada Hana (y'know, they could've just taken a shortcut and name her "insert name here"; the result would've been the same) gets transported to Sangoku-era China by way of a mysterious book. There, she meets Koumei and gets involved in the whole war affair.

...Too much complicated kanji and a complete lack of familiarity with The Romance of the Three Kingdoms are not helping me here （Ｔ　Ｔ） Well, it looks interesting enough. I dig Fuyou-hime.

[icingCandy] Bloody Call
All-ages PC otome game with full voice, again planned for a 2009 release. icingCandy seems to be a new subsidiary of Will. Yamashita Nanao (山下ナナオ) is in charge of the artwork, Nagano Izumi (長野和泉) provides the scenario and Megumi Ai (めぐみ愛) is the director.
The story takes place in an alternative version of modern-day Japan, in the city of Glazheim where humans live alongside a similar, but different race called hanki. The two races seem to be coexisting harmoniously, but in truth, a quiet war is unfolding underneath that peaceful facade...
Futaba, a normal schoolgirl, has been living together with her mother ever since her father died in an accident when she was little. However, one day she returns from school only to find her home in disorder and her mother nowhere in sight; as she is about to be cornered by a suspicious group of men, she gets saved by a pair of twins, Reimei and Shirou. They explain that Futaba's father had been actually a very important figure - the boss of Flycall (99% sure this romanization is wrong), a political organization holding immense political power. He had employed Reimei and Shirou to work as Futaba's bodyguards, and his dying wish was for his daughter to take his place.
Confronted with all this, the heroine is of course confused and promptly refuses. Her attitude changes when she finds out that her mother had been kidnapped by NEDE, an organization opposing Flycall. Determined to retrieve her only remaining parent and discover NEDE's objective, Futaba moves to the mansion once inhabited by her father...
Seiyuu list:
Reimei: Nakamura Yuuichi
Shirou: Hino Satoshi
Wataru: Suzumura Kenichi
Kugami Kyou: Ishida Akira
Cain: Namikawa Daisuke

I'm sort of wondering who is it out of Will's higher-ups who likes dark-haired, bipolar twins so much... And, well, looking at Wataru's profile:
へたれ系ワンコ。ドジッ子、うっかり担当。
『男』とか『男の生き様』『硬派』などの単語をやたらと口にするが、 本人はヘタレ。一生懸命戦うが、弱い。
男というのは女相手にデレデレしたりせず、硬派に生きて背中で語るもの という美学を持っている為、基本的に女性には免疫がない。
Okay, I'm sold :D What can I say, I like my hetaboys. They make for good fluff. (<- bakappuru moe)

So the promo for Aoi Hana has been out since forever.

No actual animation in the PV makes me worried. Three relatively obscure people and one seiyuu superstar in the cast make me even more worried, but then again Michiko to Hatchin crossed that particular hurdle spectacularly, so I'm hopeful. NOISE hasn't disappointed so far, so yes, very yes.

Feeling feverish and generally tired (lol swine flu? or maybe just sleep deprivation), so! Taking the laptop to bed right now so I can play Garnet Cradle until I fall asleep on the keyboard. Or, maybe, y'know, finish it. Possibly. Yes, I've been dragging it along all week. Yes, I have probably failed several tests because of it. OH WHO CARES, I just want to finish up Rihito and Saaliya (or... however that's spelled. Saariya? Saaliyah? Cookies, anyone?) and get it over with. I mean, seriously, the second-to-last chapter (ie, 1/4 of the game) is just the same shit repeated over again with the names changed.

(ITT, I'm being cranky because of a sore throat. Please don't take my complaints seriously.)

Ow, tired.

I ended classes at noon, so I was supposed to make my own lunch today... But somehow it ended as "everyone comes over to my place and we make pancakes with whipped cream and strawberries"... （*゜ｖ゜*） It's sort of embarassing, but I've always yearned for this sort of girly things... But in the end, I ended up focusing on not messing up... Since I'm clumsy in this typical anime doji way where I'm capable of tripping on a flat surface. But, it was fun, and since I tired myself out, I had no strenght to think about the bad things I was worrying earlier. In the end, there's no point, is there? So long as I do my best...

I'm attempting to finish Ijiwaru My Master, but before I had noticed, I've completed Kyle's junai route in Under the Moon... But since his aizou route is hitting so hard (I'm around halfway through), my motivation is slowly rising. I guess yanderes are the ultimate turn-off (anti-moe?) for me.

It's been six months and I'm still listening to Love Song... That album gets better every time I listen to it.

I'll admit that I disappeared for a while because I was preoccupied with DLing doujin games. Not that I finished any of them... Save for one. Well, anyway...

( Spoilers? )

I also spent the other evening searching for Kino/Kaga and came up with nothing... I wonder if I'm the only one who likes that pairing...?

Leaving this here.

Edit: hoshit, it's OnoD's birthday today. Turns out I'm not that good at stalking. おめでとー、 小野ディさまぁー (and plz do wear glasses more. you look smoking hot in them.)
