Futari、Atatameau CD「Harutsuge to Yuki Musuko」Daisanshou Ritsuka
ふたり、温めあうCD「春告と雪息子」第三章 リツカ
CV: Kimura Ryohei
Mune-kyun level: 3.5/5 (He’s a cute lil’ shit)
R-18?: No
Craziness level: 2/5 (still considerably tamed!!)
Dummy-head mic used?: Yes
(Ahead with more mysteries.)
Plot Summary:
This volume involves Ritsuka, your other childhood friend, carrying out the ceremony. He is the son of the village’s doctor and he’s learning to be one as well. He is slightly shy and cute, but he is one who goes after knowledge, which makes him want to find out the truth behind the entire situation
Trigger 5: Ritsuka mentioned that it was too early for his family to be the one organising the ceremony and that he had a feeling that it should have been later.
When you went to his family’s house to stay during the period of the ceremony, Ritsuka told you that no one is to enter one of the room and that no one but his father has the key to that room. One night, you see Ritsuka outside that room and he tells you that everything is alright, but it’s not because ever since that day he has been acting weird.
Ritsuka later then tells you that you are TOO different from the rest of the people living in the village and that he was passed a key, which he lied saying that he found the key, to the room that no one was to enter and found records of all the sacrifices thus far. You were the only one who had detailed inspection and Ritsuka came to a conclusion that you were not someone from the village.
Trigger 6: He mentions how he cannot remember when he last saw Seiji and Kazaha and it was the same for you. Their memories of the past are also starting to get weirder and more confusing as the time passes.
Again, same with the previous 2 volumes, the boys don't want you to be sacrificed but you say that you have no choice. (God damn it, so stubborn, just run away already.)
The day of the ritual arrives, and Ritsuka catches up to you when you’re walking to the palace and drags you to a shed, which he mentioned that someone found it but he doesn’t remember who that person is. (Trigger 7 right here.)
He brings you there, and confesses his feelings and tells you to run away with him. You accept and you two stay in the shed for awhile to rest. You fall asleep, and then Ritsuka goes and checks the castle out. Again, like the other volumes, he did not see any castle at all. He falls to the ground and when he was close to losing his consciousness, he sees someone who looks exactly like him, and that’s when he remembered, he had a twin brother called Tenka.
My Thoughts: SHIT GOT SO REAL.
This volume basically revealed all the facts that were easy to figure out, and it’s so interesting to see how the ending of this volume was so different compared to the last 2 volumes because we actually know who appears in front of Ritsuka. RITSUKA ACTUALLY DOESN’T “DIE” LIKE THE OTHER TWO ARE YOU SHOCKED.
Would I Recommend?: 10/10
As I have mentioned, you HAVE to listen to all the volumes to understand the story, but honestly, this volume was a good volume. Besides getting more facts and by now you can already piece everything together, Ritsuka was a cute boy to be around. He’s so awkward around you at first and that’s so so so cute!!!!
The next volume would be the one where all the truth, literally ALL the truths gets exposed so look forward to that one!
Hey guys!! My school semester has finally ended and I have more time to write reviews now!
I have two announcements I want to make and the first is that I would not be writing any more reviews for thanatos night revival as this entire season has been a disappointment. Remember how I said that Nia might have some hope? My expectations and hopes had been completely shattered. From what I have heard so far, everything is just a plain repeat of the first season and to be very honest, I have lost interest in revival and would not be writing on it anymore.
Also, I might be doing more of random write ups of random volumes rather than working on one entire series as I would start to lose motivation to write the reviews (looks sadly at harutsuge)
Other than that, I will try to get some reviews up before I get busy with school again!!!
hi everyone Kimi here!!! I know i haven't been posting much but this is because i have school work to handle with every week having at least one submission:') Yes this is shittt i know. I am considering whether to continue the thanatos night revival reviews because i listened to nia's volume and it was the same disappointment as izaya. If y'all want me to continue it please tell me and i'll definitely continue!! I would probably be free around September onwards so please bare with me!!! ~Kimi~
Hajimemashite and Hello. I was wondering if you would be willing to the song translations from the Thanatos Night series including Fallen Angels Night. If so, please let me know at my gmail account willitworkwithoutphone. Thanks for the summaries; they really helped. Take care. Sincerely, Bashiek
Hello Bashiek:)I’m so sorry to say that I don’t do translation due to my Japanese not being very good. Summaries are the limit of my abilities and i can’t do translations:(((
Plot Summary: If you haven't read my review on Izaya from the first season i suggest you do because i'm not going to explain much in this. Link is here: http://otome-no-uta.tumblr.com/post/157603975785/thanatos-night-vol1-izaya
The plot for this volume is very similar to the plot in the first season, just that this time it is shorter, no romance and more boring. Even when Izaya actually teases the heroine, the story is just boring.
My Thoughts: I am DISAPPOINTED.
Literally a repeat of what happened in the first season, heroine wants to die, sees Izaya's wings and Izaya finishes her off. The thing about this was that the overall idea for revival was that the heroine from the previous season is revived again with no memories of the fallen angels, and the same goes for the angels as well due to the fact that they have lost all memories of when they were on Earth. I was expecting for their memories of each other to come back and pull on some heart strings because they will be separated once more again but, nope. There were no particular climaxes in the story, Izaya keeps rambling off on how he hates humans and bla bla. The length of the drama also pissed me off a little, like 15 minutes is very very short, it’s almost like they didn’t put in effort for this volume.
Song: 8.5/10
The song is not bad, but the thing I dislike about Rejet songs are the kiss sounds they add in their dummy head mic songs. They didn’t add that in the first season which was a blessing but they added them in this time which made it very “meh~” for me. Other than that Waccha’s singing was great as usual but the song doesn’t surpass the first one for me. (Also what’s with the moaning sounds:’) )
Would I Recommend?: 0/10 NO.
It is quite boring and it would probably ruin the entire series for you. The drama tracks added up are only around 15 minutes which is very very short for a drama cd.
The thing is that, I’m not going to say that you all should drop revival completely, I’m actually thinking there might be a chance that this boring volume is in preparation for Nia’s volume because we all know he is probably the most popular character in Thanatos Night like everyone can’t wait to see get his ass kicked. I’m praying Nia’s volume would be good and I like the feeling of the first sample they placed on their website so...I SHALL NOT LOSE HOPE YET.
bymyshelf replied to your post “Thanatos Night Vol.6 {Duran}”
Thank you so much! Ugh, Duran seems like such a cutie. I can't wait to listen to his CD.�� The song is very nice~ I liked Liam's song, but I felt like it was a bit misleading �� This song fits the image, I think.
Hehe no problem!! YAS Duran’s song fits him perfectly I cannot
We can also sympathise with Liam though because in the end the heroine didn’t really love him for who he is (because he left out details lol) so maybe the song isn’t that misleading after allXDD
Mune-kyun level: 5/5 (Do not mess with Tosshi’s low voice, it can kill.)
R-18?: Nope
Craziness level: 0/5 (Completely clean and beautiful)
Dummy head mic used?: Yes
(On to the last volume!!!!!)
Plot Summary:
You have a small encounter with Duran when you bumped into him in the crowded streets, and when you see him, boom, you see his wings. From the start of the CD, you were already suicidal.
The next day, you find him in class because he is your classmate and start pestering him, asking him if he’s a demon bla bla. Then you tell him that you saw his wings and he asks you when you saw it and reveals that he’s a fallen angel and that he’s going to kill you. He strangles you, asking you to die yourself, says it’s a hassle to kill you and asks you to stop bothering him.
Later on, Duran spots scars on your wrists and slowly finds out that you are experiencing domestic abuse, and day by day a number of scars on you start to increase.
Duran was very cold to you at the start, but his attitude gets better after you helped him clean up the room which was his punishment for sleeping in class. (This is nonsense what even but okay he’s lazy.)
One fine day, you didn’t come to school and while Duran was on the way home, he sees you sitting down on the roadside, with an injury on your arm. He immediately brings you to his house to get treated.
While you two are talking, your phone suddenly starts ringing. You ignore the first call and the second one came immediately, and yes you all guessed it, it was your family calling you. You ignore the second one but decides to go home. Duran, thinking that it’s a stupid idea (I think it is too.), strangles you because he says that if you want to get hurt so much, he can do it for you instead of your family. You resisted against it and he lets go, saying that there was a part of you that doesn’t want to die just yet and that you were just looking for help. He promises to protect you then until the day he sends you off.
D-Day comes, he says he’s going to end your misery and that he’ll send you off with no pain. He KISSES YOU AND SAYS IT’S A PARTING GIFT. (FML THIS MAN I SWEAR PLAYING WITH MY HEARTSTRINGS.) He tells you not to worry and that it wouldn’t hurt.
You’re dead, he talks to himself, I’m lazy so I’ll just write down what he said.
Hey, is it really okay like this? For everything to end like this? *Breaths out deeply and laughs* You sure look happy. Thanking me for killing you, man being a fallen angel sure is a pain, but, are fallen angels able to save people? I pray that you’ll resurrect into a world where you’ll be happy this time. *Kisses you*
My Thoughts: I LOVED THIS VOLUME.
This volume is very different from the others in a few ways. This volume focuses more on the heroine’s situation rather than the guy’s and that this volume isn’t as heavily weighted in terms of love and fluff as compared to the rest, but this is what I liked about this volume. It’s very fresh and it was something different to enjoy. Duran is SO SO SO KIND, like oh girl I thought this guy was an angel. (Sense the irony) This poor boy didn’t get to confess though...and ALSO USUALLY ALL THE BOYS WOULD GO AND UNBUTTONS YOUR SHIRT (I’m looking at Nia.) BECAUSE HORNY BUT THIS BOY BUTTONS YOUR SHIRT FOR YOU TO HIDE YOUR SCARS THAT’S LIKE PLUS 100 FOR ME. (I didn’t write this down because I want y’all to go listen to it yourselves and feel it thoroughly and honestly, I’m just trying to make my summaries shorter because it’s getting too long :”) )
Tosshi did a FANTASTIC JOB voicing him I swear his deep voice is <3. Also, when he said that he would protect you, HOW COULD YOUR HEART NOT GO KYUN AT THAT????!!!
Song: Same as Liam’s one, this song was a slow one and everyone knows that tosshi is an amazing singer and the song was the bomb. His vocals are so strong and it made the song even better.
Would I Recommend?: 10/10 YASSSSSSSSSS
From all volumes, I really liked the plot in this one mainly because of the shift of focus in the plot. The transition to him being unwilling to send you off till the end where he thinks it’s a pity to send you off was THE BOMB. Okay but him starting to accept you after you helped him with his work is bullshit honestly but oh well he’s lazy so I’ll give that a pass. It’s a great ending to this series and revival is up upon us now:’)
Praying that Rejet would continue the quality in this series because Izaya’s voice samples for revival made me worried:’)
PS: My school just started, yes ew I know, and apparently it’s going to be quite intensive so I cannot promise to regularly post, but I’ll try getting a review up once in two months!!!
OMG!!!! U JUST WROTE ALL MY THOUGHTS OUT IN YOUR THANATHOS NIGHT REVIEWS!!! And my heart is still broken from Nia... (IT'S BEEN MONTHS!! PLEASE HEAL ALREADY!!) I was so looking forward to his (Damassu trash) too and I got Rejet taking scumbag to a whole new level. I only read your Thanatos Night reviews at the moment coz I don't want to spoil myself with the rest yet~ Great job!!! (Complete agrees with your Liam craziness level)
SFLR ANON TUMBLR DID NOT GIVE ME NOTIFS FOR YOUR ASK AND I DIDN’T CHECK:’))))Thanks for you sweet comment I’m glad you agreed too!! (Massun trash too) Let’s get our hearts prepared for revival:’))))))))
Craziness level: 0/5 (This is just a normal school life drama so.)
Dummy head mic used?: Yes
(Spoilers ahead~ writing this volume first, may write on the rest!!)
-The first track is the depiction of your current relationship with Roux, what happens in the drama CD is a flashback of what went on between you two. Same goes for the rest of the CDs in this series-
Plot Summary: The setting in this entire series is that you joined the current school you are in by mistake. The current school you’re in is one for idols or people who are aiming to enter the entertainment/arts industry.
Roux spots you carrying a load of books and he goes to you, wanting to help when you slipped and fell into a puddle of water. (Tragic.) Brings you into the special room for the Kami6 (something like the 6 Gods or some shit.) ,aka the title of all the guys in the six, and it is officially revealed that he is a playboy. Starts saying shit like he fell in love with you at first sight and all them crap, (and loads of whispers thus the title.) casually asks if you want to date him but you’re like no and he’s like okay sure I’m not giving up I’ll make you fall for me. He kisses you on the cheek and you run out of the room. His real intentions are kinda revealed, like how he thinks of you as a toy, he’s in search of something that would interest him, impact him, and that how he thought a kiss would make you fall for him. (BROTHER SHIT DOESN’T WORK THAT WAY.)
You’re kind of being bullied because of the fact that you transferred in by accident and he starts by getting on your good side by defending you, like telling your entire class off. You gradually start falling for him until crunch time came. He brings you to the shower room (Why the hell you even following him to such a place.) and after talking, he finally throws you away, thinking that woman are always like this, just because a guy treats them nicely, they fall for him, just like the woman who threw him away aka his mother. He has a strong mother complex because his mother threw him away and left with another man. He feels disgusted whenever girls fall for him easily and treat it like a game and throw them away once they’ve completely fallen in love, exactly what’s happening to you now.
He turns on the shower and starts throwing insults at you like how you accepted a kiss from him even though you two aren’t dating, how you would accept any man chasing after you and lastly, when he questions whether you’ve fallen in love with him, he says that he has cleared the game and bids farewell.
After you have been thrown away, in order to prevent other girls from experiencing the same pain, you chase the girls who are with him away. Of course, he’s annoyed at you interrupting his “game”, says like how you’re doing this because you want to get his attention and basically tells you to act obedient and listen to what he says, and that’s to stop interfering with his game. Says how he turned out was because his mother kept playing around with men, to the extent that he doesn’t know who his dad is and that it’s natural for him to play around because his mother’s blood is flowing in him. (Piss off that’s a pathetic reason.) You still don’t listen, so he locks you inside I’m guessing the equipment room for you to calm yourself down, leaving you for the entire night.
Next day, you drag him to the Kami6 room to have a small chat with him. You claim that you were completely okay with what happened the day before and that you believe he’s actually a nice guy. You say that he’s just a hurt little boy and he gets ticked off. He attempts to hurt you by sexually harassing you until his mini session was interrupted by a phone call. The police called him to tell him that his house got burnt down and that his grandfather, who’s living with him got stabbed by the culprits and is currently in the hospital. He’s all sad because he’s lonely and doesn’t want to go see his grandfather because it’s probably too late for him. You urge him to go and poor boy screams like a baby and you give him a good slap. (CLAPPING MY HANDS YAS GIRL.) You call him weak and lonely because of what happened to his mother. He gets pissed off and said that you don’t know how it feels to be thrown away, even though you got thrown away by him. You leave the room angrily, and he comments that EVEN YOU THREW HIM AWAY. (BROTHERRRRRRRR WHAT THE FUCK YOU TOLD HER TO GET LOST.) After thinking alone about his situation, he runs to the hospital to go see his grandfather.
His grandfather survived, and all he has in his mind is the words you said to him, you calling him a weak person, thinking that only you said those things to him. He has been trying to apologise to you but you keep avoiding him, even admits how he’s pathetic for asking you leave him alone and once you do, he gets scared. (Yeah boy take that you piece of shit.)
He finally manages to catch you one day, and he became so pathetic, saying shit like “but you used to love me, you said you did, how can you throw me away like this? Give me a break…” You tackle by saying something around the corner of him asking you to leave him alone first but he’s all like oh I want you to help me with cleaning up my house because I’m bad at it. (BROTHER WHAT THE FUCK AT LEAST THINK OF A BETTER EXCUSE COME ON.) Saying that it has to be you, how he would pay you for cleaning his house and your broke ass agreed. He leaves you with his address and you ran away from him. You’re the on giving the cold shoulder now.
D-day comes, and when you come, he sounds sooo happy (sounds like a dog.) and then he brings you in and asks you to split the rubbish for him. You start your work while he works on another room. He invites you for a break where you refused and he’s all like are you still bothered about what I did to you BECAUSE I WILL APOLOGISE TO YOU FOR IT SO PLEASE. (How about a no you trash.) He tries to pull you with him but you reject him, making him all sad but nope it was because you wanted to show him something. Turns out, his grandfather was keeping the ballet shoes he used to wear when he was younger. He saw ballet as a way to see his mother when he was younger because only during his ballet lessons would his mother go and visit him. She wouldn’t praise him or anything, but just seeing her watching him made me happy. He wants to throw away the shoes now because it would only remind him of his mother and he doesn’t want to. When he leaves the room, you casually took out the shoes from the rubbish bag.
While you two were having a break, he was just talking about how weak he was because of his mother and he played with girls to try to fill up that empty space in him, how he’s scared to have someone important to him because he doesn’t want to get thrown away by them bla bla bla. Hugs you, tells you that he wants to be with you, how he will not lie to you again, how he doesn’t want other guys to take you, but you don’t believe his words because he has lied to you so many times. He’s so desperate he’s like I’ll do anything to get your approval AND YOU TAKE OUT THE BALLET SHOES, ASKING HIM TO DO IT AGAIN. (God dammit this heroine is hella clever?!) He didn’t like it at first, but later on he’s like okay I’ll do it. He tells you to wait for him because once the time comes (after he has become a better man for you), he would confess to you again.
You help him throughout his journey of getting back to ballet and now ballet is a fun thing to him, he doesn’t relate it to his mother anymore.
One fine day, You visit him at his ballet lesson as usual and he brings you to the spot where you two first met, the time when he confessed to you with no emotions at all. He now officially confesses to you and you accept his confession. He hugs you, says how happy he is because he finally got what he wanted for so long, he kisses you and the drama ends. The next few secret tracks are just fluffy scenes of what happens after he confesses and how you two are as a couple.
My Thoughts: Gosh this is a loooong review.
Due to the fact that this was a 2 disc drama CD, there’s 2 hours worth of content and I tried cutting it down as much as I could already.
Alright, back to my thought. I genuinely liked this CD a lot, especially the part when he was trying to get back the heroine’s heart. A lot of the scenes then my heart squeezed so hard my chest was feeling all funny and I really like it when it happens when I’m listening to a CD because it just means that I can really feel the feelings they went through hoho. The pacing was not bad, hirarin the god of drama CDs of course doing a very good job at displaying Roux’s feelings, it really got to me THUMBS UP.
Would I Recommend?: 10/10
Yes, I really would recommend this CD because I just find it genuinely interesting. Once you enter the second disk aka after heroine gets dumped, it’s just non-stop good quality story plot of the heroine’s fight. You also get to know more about Roux in this disc which adds on to the goodness.
I did mention earlier that this was similar to Nia’s CD because of the front part where they cleverly lied to the girl and cheated her feelings. Nia’s one is obviously more screwed up than this so this would be more tamed for the weak hearts out there! Also throughout the front part, there were already hints of him just playing around with you so you won’t be as shook as Nia’s CD TRUST ME.
