Shingeki no Kyojin

This was the reaction when I was reading the manga of Shingeki no Kyojin (SNK). Honestly, I stumbled across the manga before the anime aired. But I didn't care to read it because the synopsis didn't really capture my attention. And probably because the cover of the manga didn't looked very welcoming .. Thanks to the pianist TheIshter, I viewed his cover on the opening of SNK and found the real opening later. It was so epic that I changed my mind about not reading it. After noticing how the people in the internet went crazy about the anime, I decided to read the manga first. The story is very original. So here's the synopsis. Several hundred years ago, the human population was pushed to the brink of extinction by giants/titans. The few remaining survivors managed protect themselves by building walls as high as 50 meters, surrounding them and allowed them to live in peace for 100 years. Flash forward to the present, Eren and his foster sister, M

I just finished reading Air Gear and I enjoyed it a lot, though it takes a lot of understanding of Physics. No, I won't read the whole page filled about how the Air Trecks or Regalias work. Though Oh! Great concluded the manga nicely, I'm kinda sad that it ended. Air Gear is so underrated and perhaps they should continue the anime so lazy people can finish up the story. Despite the many scenes of naked girls (not interested \o/), I really admire the (awesome, awesome, awesome) art and action scenes. Not only the story is original, it's unpredictable and realistic. Though, it's kinda unbelievable that a mere middle-school kid managed to conquer the skies. Of course, Air Gear is also awesome because there's Kazu-sama. --- It had been five years since the last general elections, and it's finally nearing. Since I was born, three elections had been held. I wasn't old enough to know what going on the first, still innocent to know the second, go

  Peachyyyyyy. --- DAY FOUR This was the day I was looking forward the most. I recovered from what I was suffering for the past few days and was going to Disneyland! I'm not a kid anymore but I love amusement parks a lot. It's been such a long time since I sat on a roller coaster. Fetching us to Disneyland was a Taiwanese lady. It's great to speak Chinese to someone else other than my mother since the we can't speak Japanese. The Japaneses' English aren't really that good either. Even though it's a weekday, the theme park is still flooded with people. We noticed that majority of the customers are the locals. I was even more surprised when I saw a big group of school students in their uniform at the park. They were on a field trip, and I thought I didn't have to queue up on a weekday .. The famous icon. In Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea (Yes, there's DisneySea), they have a system called the FastPass.  This is a sy

Well, here I am back in Malaysia from my trip to Tokyo, Japan for one week. I would like to say I had fun from the start till the end but unfortunately things didn't went all smooth during the whole trip. But overall, Japan is a wonderful place. More like, Japan is another world. A more awesome world. DAY ONE We departed from Malaysia at the 8th of April, a Monday morning. I wasn't really feeling well from the night before and sadly, I didn't felt any much better after I had my breakfast. My stomach was upset and I vomited. I felt terrible but it's worse when I made my parents worry. But we went to the airport anyways, and boarded on the plane to Hong Kong for a transit flight. I did feel a little better, but I couldn't eat anything because I will feel sick later and throw up. Yeap, I was down because our trip had a horrible start. The sun was already setting by the time we landed at Haneda Airport. A person named Suzuki fetched us from the airpo
