Soap doesn’t consider himself to be a rude person, but if you’d ask him right now, he’d probably tell you who -the fuck was this person and why was he wearing a mask- to add more to the case, a skull mask. Soap didn’t know how or what to answer, considering how it was 2:30 in the morning and somehow a half dead person, or at least that’s how he probably wanted to make himself known for, was standing in front of his bunker.
“... and ye’ are?” Soap tried to manage not to sound as terrified as he was, but a small gulp and the nervous scratching on his arm told otherwise. “I’m Lieutenant Riley, Simon Riley. I was told that I’d be accompanying you on tomorrow’s mission.”
Soap’s heart dropped somehow around the words -accompanying- and -tomorrow-
“I- well, I wasn’t informed about any of this… sir, uh Riley.” Soap tried to lie his way out of this. There were enough dreams on his mind to have them all interrupted by this man. “Ye’ must be confused-” Soap continued, before he got interrupted by the man, somehow his voice sounded…demanding?
“You must be stupid to think I’d fall for a lie like that, sergeant.” The man scoffed at Soap’s words as he handed him a sheet. “What’s this?” Soap managed to sound arrogant while staring at the man’s eyes, or at least what he hoped were his eyes. “You sign those papers, and then were officially partnered up for this mission.” The man replied, while slightly shoving the papers to Soap. “Did Price not explain to ye’ about the coup-”
“The Couple’s part. Yes, yes he did explain.” The man recalled. “I believe we won’t have any trouble with that?” He continued.
FYMB updates: spring animes and dandelions and flowers and weird yaois etc
Happy spring! So far...
... it has just been weird for the most part. I mean, we got the virus, we're still living, although, Skip Beat! translation gods hasn't updated the next chapter, we're still fighting, i mean, we are slaves to that manga, so, yeah, so far, it has been okay. Pat yourself on the back, unless you're a tumblr post engine which doesn't automatically capitalize the first letter of the start of the sentence, you're pretty much better. lol. anyway, i digress.
We all know that the winter animes are done and streamed, and I'm gonna be honest, I didn't watch the whole damn list. and also, yes, I didn't watch Attack on Titan. Me and AOT doesn't mix. It doesn't work. Let me tell you why. It freakin scares me to death. The atmosphere of that kind of anime is the atmosphere that I do not enjoy. I dont care if my life is boring. lol. i remember that time when I started it's ep 1 years ago, few minutes done and I am out. I pretty much know the premise of it, and respect that many people loved it, but I dont like it because it wont make me feel better after I finish watching an episode. that's why maybe, just maybe, i'll find a time to start watching the first ep again and give it a try. but dont quote me on that.
Black clover ended too and it saddens me that it's not sure if there's gonna be a new season, or it got cancelled. I talked to you guys about telling something about Yuno after the anime is done so here's my 2 cents, that maybe some of the readers and watchers had been thinking already. Yuno's character has been bugging me since he was revealed as prince of another kingdom. Sure, he can be beauty and grace. sure, he can be the vice captain of the strongest wizard group in clover. sure, he can have the wind sylph. Sure, he can be the fuckin prince of another kingdom, but why, o, why, does he have to be the vessel of a half elf half prince royalty too at first? the character building had some holes. the hell. if the spade arc happened before the elf arc, i can understand it. but it's the other way around, it just feels so weird. one might compare yuno to Sasuke, but sasuke have a strong clan murder back story. yuno? as early as the time he got the wind spirit, he didnt resonate to me that much. the whole character of yuno was a fan service. if black clover anime ended just like that, without any plan to have a next season or movie(like those big ones are planning to have), yuno fuckin wasted my time. lol. i might as well go in a fuckin dungeon and get myself a water spirit with a devil on the side. *note: i watch as i read the manga. i know he probably trained his ass too, but the character wasnt highlighted until the spade arc, well, the anime ended before he did something splendidly. he's one of the main characters but he wasnt highlighted for the most part. i feel like maybe i havent warmed up to him yet. i mean, i love every freakin member of black bulls, and they pretty much the supports. what a lost opportunity for yuno to shine in the anime. one time yuno resonated to me was when he's in the meeting with the captains and he wanted to save his captain. that was it, and it was in the last few eps. if im an anime watcher only, i couldnt care less what he's thinking. asta is gonna be trained by his vice captain who btw is friends with a lot of demons. why am i going to care about yuno? i am talking about the anime experience. if in manga, he'll partner with asta and fight a good fight, it sure will be interesting.
next topic! So, as you noticed, i am currently binge watching Sk8 the infinity, and i love it to bits. underground skating is super cool in this anime. I like the politics, the dark side outside of the underground skating. very intriguing to see how the two worlds collide, adam's 2 worlds, with that police chick on his back. now, don't get me wrong, i like Langa, but hell, Reki's character have some struggles. although, i am more invested in adam's story than reki's. adam is such a damaged soul. it's gonna end at ep 12 and i feel like the story needed to have a season 2. any news about it?
new spring animes are here and i am ready. i mean, might as well watch anime before we all die, isnt it? lol. just kidding. now, i've been reading manga and it's common for me to see mangas i've read years ago and i've forgotten popping anime adaptations these past few days. one anime i've started watching is IT'S TOO SICK TO CALL THIS LOVE. if you want some spring anime that include an adult man liking and borderline obsessed to a high school girl, ok, it sounded creepy, but you'll know what i mean if you watch it. lol. it's cute.
although, i wont recommend watching MARUDASE KINTARO OVA for people who doesnt like yaoi or bl at all. do not watch this. lol. it's a comedy censored yaoi, and it's like 8 minutes long. it's pretty familiar to me too so maybe i read this one as well ahemmm back from my weird years.
lol. i maybe will do a separate post for censored comedy hentai anime that is hentai in manga, but let me just rant for a bit. it's always so disappointing when an anime who is sexy and clearly hentai or hentai in manga posing to be just ecchi with censorship. can these companies just tell if their animes are hentai or not, and if not, please just cut the hentai scenes. and if it's hentai, acknowledge it as a hentai, blurred the dang thing, and just purely made it a hentai. maybe i just dont like being teased, dudes, and maybe because i hate hentai animes that passed on as ecchi and the comedy is being highlighted. i love the uncensored censored of redo of healer with the boobs bare, but i hate animes which are pretty much made to be just ecchis when their manga is pure hentai.
Moriarty the patriot part 2 started streaming and hell, of course, i will continue watching it. I love Sherlock Holmes, as you all know. although, this very demanding side of me wants different. the SH universe has been used a hundred times. it has been spinned, adapted, inspired from, copied, drawn etc. The crime lover part of me wants something new. if you read my tags, i said that Japan loves Sherlock Holes, and hell, i mean it because they do. too much. Detective conan although have a spin on it does take a lot of inspiration from SH. every detective stories, mangas i read had some inspiration from SH. it has been milked for ideas. it saddens me sometimes when i started a detective story and it's obviously is inspired by SH. i am so thirsty of a good detective story that isnt in any way, shape or form similar to SH, similar to the cases, similar to the duo, and hell, villains similar to Moriarty.

last but not least, let me just say sorry for the garbage that this post has been. im kidding. this is not a reader's digest article, dudes. lol. ok, well, this is a long post. i might end this here, and i will surely update you to the new animes that i might watch this season. it's spring, guys. go out a bit. dont forget your mask. smell the dandelions, the tulips. open your windows ffs. it's not that cold anymore. be careful and be kind.
They’re both erratic and before Pattyie Bluejay went to sit down next to Pattyie Crowe, they both started doing this and it looked like they were weirdly greeting each other and I’m crying.
First of all, hello and I hope you guys are safe and healthy wherever you are. Second, I’ll be doing monthly or unscheduled updates like this blog post here in Tumblr from now on, because I have something to say sometimes, and usually I do a blog post in fymb’s blogger website but I couldn’t open the account anymore. It has been years since I last posted from the account. Next, I just wanna say thanks to my new followers this year. I sometimes forget it but I always appreciate new peeps here. I started this page 2012 and I am still one of the top manga blogs in the tag search, so thanks. :)
Lastly, I started reading manhua these past few months, even started watching historical Chinese drama and I fell hard and deep into the rabbit hole. If you wanna go down with me, I might post some Heaven Official’s Blessings in the future. You see, when it comes to manhuas, and particularly to Chinese novels that are so popular that they are being adapted left right and center, I always, always, always am guilty not having to read the original works first, which are usually from popular novels. I sometimes come straight to watching the anime or reading the manhua as I watch it, or worst yet watching the drama adaptation, which i totally understand because people don’t have time to read. So when it comes to manhua, donghua, I am really slow in terms of taking the story in, especially the historical fantasy ones. I love to take all the settings and story in and really immerse myself to them, which is a problem when I am as busy as everyone in the world. What a first world problem to have. It’s pitiful. :(
Anyways, expect some manhua goodness soon. If you haven’t introduced yourself to manhua, maybe this is the year to try something new, aside from our good old manga.
In terms of what anime I’m watching this year, i’m still into Jujutsu Kaisen these days. Pretty much sad that Black Clover anime is ending in march with a special announcement, I’ve heard. (I might have a post regarding Black Clover in the future, about Yuno to be very exact) I haven’t started some more to be honest. Horimiya is still on the list. I’ll try reblogging some manga posts I posted few years back every time Horimiya will have a new episode so you guys can see where they are in the manga. You know, speaking of Horimiya, at some point in between reading the manga in the past, I fell out of love with it. I don’t why but at some point, the story isn’t working for me anymore. Hmm, what else?
If you got some questions, hit me up at the ask box. Will try to answer you. Also, if you wanna ask me my favorite shoujo mangas(which I was asked about a million times), go to the page, type in the search bar “shoujo”, and press enter. I had a lot of posts from my favorite shoujo mangas and the ones I’ve read and completed.
Bye-bye for now.
Disclaimer: Sorry for the typos. My mind is faster than my fingers.
May you celebrate it with your loved one and may you be both last.

May you celebrate it with yourself for when you truly love and care for yourself, will you be able to take good care of someone in return when the time comes you both shall meet. :)
If the next release is a single and not an album (even though i’m having this weird feeling that the next release is an album) , I’m guessing that the next single might be released 5-6 months after the release of Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu~ so February or March. My reasoning is because that the gap between the physical single release of Mondai Girl and Crazy Party Night is more than 5 months. @confectioneryvixen also pointed out that the next single release could be on Jan/Feb to coincide with the Kyary theme park attraction.
Reason for the Guess
The singles from Pika Pika Fantajin had a 1-2 month gap from their respective physical single release (with the exception of Mottai Nightland, which is 3 months and several days). The singles from Nanda Collection also follow the same pattern of 1-2 months (with the exception of Fashion Monster which is 3 months and a mother pamyu amount of days). So the release for K
Now that I’ve thought about it, it’s likely that the next release is a single. There’s so much more guesses I have below this. I just don’t want this to take up your dashboard.
A-side Content Guess
The A-side of the next single is likely a surprise meaning that it won’t be songs that weren’t exposed through CMs or such things like that. The A-side will probably be used on a big thing or something that will garner a lot of attention.
Reason for the Guess
Mondai Girl and Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu~ were both surprise singles. No one knew what the A-side would be until they were announced formally that they were gonna be used by something big (Mondai Girl used as a TV Show theme song and Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu~ as a theme song for a Kyary Hall Tour, Coca-Cola commercial, and maybe the clean Halloween thing). We didn’t know what those 2 songs sound like until they were put on youtube by a leaker.
B-side Content Guess
The B-sides of the single are most likely songs that are new and that are exposed before the announcement of the future single. I’m guessing that this single will have more than 1 B-Side (maybe 2-4) but it may seem like an EP or a mini-album because of the ridiculous amount of tracks in a single. Kanzen Keitai is obviously a B-Side (and it’s nice how they had a song to immediately replace Oshiete Dance Floor after it was used a few months before the exposure of the Kanzen Keitai’s existence). The rest of the B-sides should be exposed soon in the next few months.
Reason for the Guess
Since Mondai Girl, more than 1 new B-side songs have been included on a single. Mondai Girl has 2 new B-side songs plus a remix and Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu~ has 3 new B-side songs and no remix. Maybe the next single have 4 new songs . The number of tracks has been increased by 1 for every single (Mondai Girl: 7, Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu: 8). The next single could have an extended mix or a remix to make the next single have 9 tracks. The instrumentals will most likely be included as well.
Possible tie-ins and reasoning
All off the songs in a single (after the release of Pika Pika Fantajin) have tie-ins. It could be for a product, event, TV show, etc. My guesses for future tie-ins could be for the following:
Note: The reason is because she has done ads/ collabs with them in the past
Adidas - Winter equipment or new line of shoes?
3DS/ Nintendo related thing - MG and CPN~PnG~ singles had B-sides that were tie-ins to 3DS related things. Maybe for Super Mario Maker.
CHINTAI - 1-2 Kyary advertisements per year?
Mameshiba - Unlikely but worth a shot
Another Theme Songs for a TV Show for the Winter 2016 season (Higanbana, Arechi no Koi, Damena Watashi ni Koishite Kudasai, Kazoku no Katachi - I’m just naming random upcoming shows)
Glico food product - Maybe it’s time for her to do a Pocky one or some other food.
Au - she hasn’t done one since the Au Wallet (but that one didn’t have a song to tie-in with)
Crayon Shin-chan related - She hasn’t had any Shin-chan related song lately. Probably for the next movie.
Some product that’s new and she hasn’t done ads for maybe for a gum product
Other Possibilities for future singles
Double A-side Single or maybe a Triple A-side Single - She has Kimi ni 100 Pasento/ Furisodation and can be done again. Moumoon did a double and a triple A-side single before maybe Kyary can do that as well. Kyary’s team probably originally planned that Crazy Party Night ~Pumpkin no Gyakushuu~ should be Pumpkin no Gyakushuu/ Crazy Party Night (Double A-side)
Limited Single Release - Kira Kira Killer is the 1st and hopefully not the last
B-side song becomes an A-side - Maybe because of how a lot of people said “Why is No No No not an A-side?” they might do that just to please consumers. Some B-side songs applies.
A Digital Single release - It happens. Mottai Nightland proved it. So did PONPONPON
That’s all what I have (for now). I have another guess for the next album. It’s probably shorter than this whole thing I have. Express your opinions on my guesses btw.
