Spice and Wolf II – Indispensable Part of Happiness
Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action. – Benjamin Disraeli.
It doesn’t really matter how many Thoreni, Lumione or whatever coins you possess. Everyone has their set of choices to choose from whether to succumb to what they feel right or wrong, whichever might be the source of their happiness or joy, even if it’s also just momentarily.
I chuckled a bit and partly agreed to what Harold-san(the innkeeper) mentioned with regards to wealth and merchants. Indeed, merchants keep on thinking how to earn and gain large sum of profits and yet, would they be able to keep it when that day comes? Of course not, and yet they are putting all the effort just to obtain those high-quality materials and such. Certainly, why exert that much effort in obtaining something you’ll eventually throw away? I guess this rather falls in the category of that dispensable part of happiness.
We all have different kinds of perspective on how we choose to be happy with our lives, even if we’re just pretending to have the role of a fairy tale’s protagonist. Happiness is a scary thing. Perhaps that’s right but, probably not as well. Well, since it’s how Horo perceives it, let’s not argue with that. (Read on…)

Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 – So long…yet so short
It’s been a while since I’ve shed buckets of tears because of an anime… I’d say the ending of the anime left me awe-stricken. I didn’t knew where to place myself if such thing would happen as well to myself.
Hardships and obstacles are common place in life and these would test our mettle and on how we view life itself. Death of a loved one is one of these setbacks that might hinder us from progressing forward, but then again it might be an event as well that would help us go forward. It is just a matter of our choices, and as for Mirai, I’m glad she was able to overcome that reproachful feeling that she herself might have caused Yuuki’s death.
Sometimes, there are moments when what matters most is always the present, whatever might have happened during the past. Just like how Mirai’s parents took into consideration the fact that she made it alive is already noteworthy. This perspective doesn’t necessarily tells us to abandon and forget what happened on us during the past because all those things we picked up along the path have their own purpose, which is why we got from where we are now. Same as why Yuuki stayed along Mirai’s side up until she got home and met their parents, maybe it was an allusion to Mirai’s feelings of how she treasures and cherishes all those experience and emotions she felt and learned during that short journey the three of them, Mari-san, Yuuki, and she, had went all through, all together.

Aoi Hana – Retrospect
Since it’s finished, here’s the review for the series~.
I was clueless about the series when I intended to watch it but I still watched it because I wanted a dose of slice of life anime. I didn’t even knew that it has yuri elements.
I don’t know but I just feel annoyed whenever I see entries about Fumi that regard her as a lesbian. I think I can contemplate with her situation. She was never seen with a guy and by the looks of it, she must have studied on all-girls school through out her educational career which really heightens the chance that she’ll be attracted to her same gender. I really think given the chance of meeting a guy would improve her perception to relationship and thus help her recuperate with her inclination towards the she-gender. Given this much sense, I regard her not as a lesbian but simply as an ordinary girl/lady, who haven’t graduated yet from the confusion stage of her sexual orientation.
I’ve taken a liking to A-chan because she is so impulsive towards Fumi’s feelings. She truly comprehends Fumi, which I find rather impressive even though their connection and relationship had a lapse for several years. (Read on…)
The Predicament of Music as an Art
The importance to us of "music" as it fade.
First, I’d like to say that the scope of the entry doesn’t necessarily describe the general setting because it may vary for every country, depending on how they value their music, culture, and most significantly, their musicians.
