Moar (De)Motivational Posters...AGAIN!

I'm back again, with more posters! (Some people may think this is pointless. Like I care XD) Anyway, I have stuff to do. (XD) I shall leave you with some awesomeness (XD) Bye bye!! ^^

 It makes more sense if you read (or watch...probably) Bleach. (XD)

Again, it helps if you're familiar with a series, in this case Ful Metal Alchemist. Although basic knowledge on alchemy may help you understand this. (XD)

 Tis true. (XD)

End of the School Year

Ok so technically, we've got two weeks left. Or at least 9 days where we have to make our way to school. Doesn't mean we'll actually do work thought. (XD) The next five days will be Enrichment week, and the last four days is when the teachers just can't be bothered. So they stick films on. (=D)

Like I said, it's still two weeks till the end of school, which isn't a long time, but not too short either. But I know this sounds weird, but I knew full well that we had two weeks left, but yesterday it only just properly kicked in, that I only have two weeks left. Which was probably caused by the fact that we got our reports and which forms (or classes if you prefer) yesterday. I'm in 10SS, so I've got the same form tutor as last year. Personally, I don't see it as a bad thing, because it means I don't need to get to know another form tutor. May sound stupid to you, but it makes sense to me. (XD)
 
My grades were quite good as well. (^^) I managed to get an A* in English! (I rarely get A* in anything XD) The whole situation could be worse. Admittedly I've got some morons in my form next year, but I'll manage. So it's not too bad. It's just slightly scary-ish. Or at least unnerving. To have to go into a new form again, and moving from KS3 to KS4. I know it'll be fine, but still. (XD) Anyway, I have stuff to do.

Bye for now! ^^

DecoLa Hopping

Hello all! I'm here today to talk about a recent but bloody brilliant discovery I've made. DecoLa Hopping debuted in 2006, but still aren't too well known. If you have no idea who they are, then that is your loss! DecoLa Hopping is a very unusual sort of band. With VERY talented members. Let's start with the main vocalist Suiya!

 Apart from being absolutely fecking adorable, she's amazing. A good start would be the fact that she's a she. Most people will know just how bloody rare a woman is in Visual/Oshare Kei. And she's the main vocalist, the centrepiece if you will. Kudos to her for breaking for the stereotype. (XD) Also, her voice! I don't understand how she does it! She goes from a bloody adorable baby voice to huge screams. Most people think that girls shouldn't scream in songs. Usually I agree with that, but not in Suiya's case. When she screams, she really screams. It took me a little while to realise that it was actually her screaming. I thought it was a male member of the band. (Unfortunately, I have NO IDEA whos' who apart from Suiya. There's not information on them because they're not very well known.) When she's not screaming or putting on her baby voice, her voice is wonderful. It's quite mature, and generally nice to listen to. So she's talented and very cute. What else? Well, there is only one way to describe her. She's a fucking pixie on crack...That is all. (If you watch the video at the end of this post, you'll see what I mean. XD)

And now for the rest of the band! (XD)
 

Like I said earlier, I have no idea whose who, all I know is I love Suiya and the guy whose on the immediate left of her. (XD) All of them are very talented too, and I adored the drummer (far right) in the 'Kimagure!? Fearism' PV. He was just too cute (X3)

My favourite DecoLa Hopping song just HAS to be Papillion. It's amazing. Pure mind fuck (XD). Suiya is fucking fantastic in this song. (Quick note, believe it or not, ALL vocals are done by her in this song.)

 

And Kimagure!? Fearism shows off just how hyper she is. (XD) I wasn't a huge fan of it at first. But it's very catchy, and it gets stuck in your head after playing it just once. I love it now (XD)

 

 

Torayamuuru is fairly awesome too (=D)

 

 

I hope that DecoLa Hopping go far, because I will be supporting them all the way. And now, I leave you with the epic Suiya...And the rest of the band. (XD)

 

 Bye all!! ^^

'The Invisible Wall' Review

Hello All! As I mentioned in a previous post, here is my review of 'The Invisible Wall'.

What can I say? I adore it. Although I am just 'a little' biased, seeing as the GazettE are my favourite band...but most people adore it. Usually on YouTube videos there's always a few comments saying stuff like: "OMG i hate the gazette, this is even worse than usual". (I hate those people. If you hate the GazettE, why on EARTH are you looking them up on YouTube? Stop trying to troll people. As funny as it is, it doesn't work on fangirls. They WILL defend their favourite band, and you WILL lose, because they tend to get obsessed...Just saying.) But there's rarely any comments against this video. Most people know that YouTube now has a whole 'liking' system, similar to facebook, except you can dislike the videos if you so wish. On the most watched video of The Invisible Wall, there are 608 likes to 5 dislikes. It's not bad going. Anyway, let's get onto the actual video and song, starting with the band's appearance.

Ok, so from left to right the members are Reita, Aoi, Uruha, Kai and Ruki. Sorry that most of them are blurry, but shockingly, none of them stood still in the video. Aoi, who you can barely see, moves very fast throughout the whole video, and that's the only not-too-blurry image I can get. But anyway... 
- Reita's appearance rarely changes, so there isn't much to say about him, except that his hair is done better than usual and his tie is pretty awesome.
- Aoi's hair is a little shorter than usual, I can't say whether I like it or not. His outfit is slightly strange, namely his jacket, which has a weird print on it. It would look terrible on anyone else, but he pulls it off. It's clear it was made for him if you ask me.
 - Uruha. Now he's slightly complicated. (I know there is at least one person reading this blog saying "HE!?!?" It's true, he's male.) If you ask me, he looks better than usual. His strange flicky hair is gone and he isn't using a slightly strange facial expression. Either that, or he's stopped using strange make-up. Either is entirely plausible. But this look does suit him better. Maybe he would make a good girl? *laughs*
- Kai's hair is almost the same as it ALWAYS is. Except I think it's a slightly different shade. Luckily, the music video the GazettE released after 'The Invisible Wall', Kai changed his hair, into waist length braids. He shocked everyone. He still looked good though. If anything a little less cute. But recently he's changed back to this style. If I'm honest, I want him to have his (I'm assuming) natural style. There are a couple of videos of the GazettE on YouTube where Kai has pure black dead straight hair, which just covers his eyes. If you ask me, he looks unbelievably adorable. Although I suppose that looking adorable wouldn't fit the lyrics at all (More on that later).
- Ruki. Why we've gotten to the ever famous midget! Everyone loves him for it, including me. He changes his style (especially his hair) not only to see what suits him, but to see what makes him taller. That's why he got dreadlocks and put them in a ponytail. Because it gave him a couple inches of height. How could you not love him!? That's just pure adorableness. But back onto his appearance in THIS video. It's hard to tell his current hair colour as the the lighting in both scenes could change it. It's either a sandy/dirty sort of blonde or a mousy sort of brown...I think. His outfit is simple yet epic. His bunny necklace definitely earns him bonus points, as do his awesome blue contacts.


I won't say much about the song, seeing as everyone's opinion when it comes to songs are completely different. But if you ask me the song itself is awesome, and the instrumental in the middle of the song works perfectly with the music video. The music video is pretty damn awesome too. The two main scenes are both great, with nice bold colours and interesting lighting. The main colours are blue, red, black with a bit of gold. In the red scene the lighting is evenly spread out while in the first scene (the blue rainy one) the lighting is directed to the band member in the middle.

The video is awesome, and it works really well with the music. I'm not sure how well it works with the song if I'm honest though. (I'm currently trying to decipher the lyrics. *laughs* Anyone who knows the GazettE well know that they tend to have very encrypted, emotionally heavy lyrics.)  So far, what I've got from the lyrics is:

The song is about a person described as a pig (Making the person seem disgusting) who has committed tons of crimes including murdering children. The lyrics (♫ In the maze without an end ♫) seem to describe that this person is stuck in a corner (in life) and that they may as well die. Throughout this song the words "Sorrow made you" are repeated. There's the saying that those who were abused as a child, abuse their own children. Maybe it's relating to that in some way? (Which would link to the lyrics about the person murdering children.) I haven't analysed all of the lyrics but it does seem to be quite a serious song. It has a lot of depth.

Personally, I love the video and the song. But you can make up your own mind. Here:

Exams and Coursework

Hello all! Just a quick post from me..for now. (XD)
So finally, exams have gotten out of my hair. I still have some assessments to go through, but I can deal with those a lot better than exams (Especially subjects like Art.) Unfortunately I still have coursework. The good side of this is that it's reviewing a music video in three different styles and then doing a commentary. Not the hardest thing to do. At least in my opinion. The different styles are blog, tabloid and broadsheet. This does mean that later today, (or tomorrow depending on how much I manage to procrastinate) I'll be posting a review on here of the GazettE's 'The Invisible Wall'.


I don't care if you know the GazettE, or if you do or don't like them, but I would really apprieciate comments. Can be on anything, whether you agree or disagree with points, how can I imrove on the review itself, I don't mind. But I warn you, I'll probably print some of the comments out, so be careful, and preferably, no profanities. (XD) Anyway, I'm off now, hopefully I shall finish the review today (XD)
Bye for now! ^^
