lovely complex...one of the best cliche anime..

Ahhhh... I have finish watch the Lovely Complex anime and I also have watch the live action one, which were very hard to find on the net, I try the Truveo video search and most of the results are video with Russian, french or whatsoever subtitle that I would not understand. But at last I got to watch the anime at My Video, I don’t which country it was, I could not understand language of the website, but so nice of them to upload english fan-subbed anime. I really enjoy that one. Now I just want to blog about the anime.
This story revolves around Otani-156cm, shorter than the average Japanese guy, and Risa-172cm, taller than average japanese girl, always making fun at each other, selalu bertikam lidah... but,eventhough they always shout at each other, both of them a big fan of Umibouzu(Japanese Hip-hop star) so they always go to the concert together and become good friends. And then a typical teenage love story, from being just friends they develops feeling toward each other, despite always saying that “ I don’t want a beanstalk girlfriend” or “ I don’t want a shorty for a boyfriend” something like that. The story continues as Risa is the first to confess to Otani, despite feel a little bit insecure that Otani might really not like to have a taller girlfriend. When she confessed, too bad Otani does not think of her that way....yet... so Risa try to make Otani notice her as more than a beantstalk girl.
Oh yeah, there are a lot of really funny hillarious scenes and this is an anime, so crazy stunts and outrageous ridiculous scenes are expected, termasuk ekspresi muka sengal meraka, hahaha..lawak gila!...but really enjoying. Later, Risa and Otani date each other , so the story focus on them being a couple despite of height difference(but at this point, height not the real issue anymore). Not really original it is fine. And did I tell you that, the couple scene is so cute...cair jugalah aku tengok walaupun memikirkan lelaki tu lagi rendah dari aku... hehehe....
Well I don’t really learn new things from here, alright probably about not being insecure about myself despite my physical appearance (but I got to say that my height is never an issue for me)...I also love that Risa always change her hairstyles in the anime, different from other anime that sually wear the same hairstyles and even the same clothes... So, how coud I be bore with this.
Another thing that I really, really love about this story, it is set in Ohsaka, so the characters all speaking in Kansai-ben dialect. Yeah, it was really different , but don’t know why it really suits comedy.
The thing about Kansai-ben dialet is there are much more dragging in word and usually has a ‘ya’ sound at the end. Emmm... I just give simple example:-
Bye-bye in Japanese is “Sa-yo-na-ra”, but in Kansai-ben dialect “Sai-nara”...probably they drag the ‘y’ sound as ‘sai’ instead of ‘sa-y’ ...another one, “na-ni” that usually mean what, in Kansai-ben it is “nai-ya” ... and more example you could find in the anime. A fresh breath in japanese language that I always listen to in j-drama...hehehe...(not sure if this really correct 100%, but that is how I heard it).
All together, I really love to watch the anime (the movie not so much).
PS: It does make thinking about me being couple with a shortguy, would I be okay having a BF shorter than me? would any tall girl date a shorter guy, would any short guy want to date a taller girl?hmmm... I guess base on a person perspective. You guys and girl out there, would you?

PSS: Later I would blog about the movie and Kurosagi too.

Ponatlah den...!

Aahhh....It’s been almost two weeks in my second semester in KMB, and it’s been quite hectic and things have change... a lot...
First, my classmates and I got a new class situated at LR 25, at the second floor. For the first time we have neighboring class, first time we have most of our class in the Academic Block. For me this is first time I have to go upstairs for class, the first time I feel that the canteen is far away from our class... Pendek kata, aku rindu kelas lama AVA3. I believe I’m not the only one, my classmate rindu AVA3 oleh sebab ‘hotspot’... but then, there are some of us make an advantage of this, kononnya azam baru kurang makan sebab ko-op, kiosk and DS jauh sangat... that is a good idea... or maybe I take chance to exercise and move more up and down...hmmm....apa sajalah.
Anyway, other than that we got a new HEP...Mr. Hatta...tapi bukan bapak Kpt. Acap rasanya....hehehe... on the first day he wore pink, so most of us call him ‘pinky’....tak baik dowh...
I heard the rumour that he is very strict about being late, but then I ignore him...
Sampailah satu waktu, aku agaknya terlambat 5 minit hari tu, jadi aku tidak sempat masuk Blok Akademik sebelum pukul 8.00. Sedang berlawak dengan Faiz Kanser waktu itu, Mr Hatta yang terpacak depan pintu masuk Blok Akademik daripada laluan ko-op terus menahan kami, termasuk student-student lain yang datang ‘memang tepat’ pada waktunya.
Perasaan aku berbaur waktu tu....salah aku, salah Mr Hatta, ...salah tudung!...tudung yang aku pakai waktu tu susah nak kemaskan sampaikan aku terlambat sikit...sikit je tau...
hehehe...alasan betul kan... jam aku pukul 8.05...waktu tu, aku betul-betul berharap Mr Hatta lepaskan kami, tapi beliau minta kami tunggu rakan seperjuangan kami yang terlambat sekali.
Sedang menunggu itu, masa terus berlalu... Mr Hatta minta kami tuliskan nama kami pada sehelai kertas. Namun ada yang memang ‘MPAC gila’ waktu itu pandai berlakon tengah menulis , depan-depan Mr Hatta pula tu. Aku rasa bengang macam nak beritahu je Mr Hatta, tapi tak naklah nak cari pasal dengan Brother tu kan... Faiz Kanser yang tak habis-habis cakap “ habislah kita Fer, habislah kita Fer” entah lesap ke mana, ‘fuyoo magik’ mana tah dia tiru aku pun tak tahu...’lu pikirlah sendiri’ !
Bila nak masuk pukul 8.45, aku pun sudah makin risau, hari ini dahlah Lab Bio...aiyoh...matilah. So Mr Hatta pun mula berkata-kata, tanya khabar kami semua dulu, dah sarapan ke belum? Serius, dia tanya kitaorang dah ‘breakfast’ ke belum dengan bersungguh-sungguh. Beliau pun memberitahu kami hukuman yang bakal diterima oleh pelajar lewat ; kena detention 3 jam atau setengah hari, ada sesi motivasi dan kaunseling, dan kalau keadaan tidak berubah juga, mula ada rollcall pukul 7.30...susah tu wei! Akhirnya beliau lepaskan kami semua.
Sampai ke Lab Bio semua pandang semacam, Mr Guna “why are you late?” aku pun beritahu apa yang terjadi... Yang coolnya Mr Guna tak meradang, well at least not in front of me...hehehe... Classmate semua memandang aku dengan muka tak boleh blah....perli akulahtu... Yang agak tidak puas hati, si Ammar yang selalu lagi lambat daripada aku, tiba-tiba sampai dulu...(tak tahulah kalau dia ada secret passage, boleh terlepas dengan Mr Hatta.
Apapun sejak hari itu, kedatangan aku ke kelas sangat dinanti-nantikan oleh classmate aku... dengan baik hati mereka sampaikan ukur berapa awal aku datang kali itu, hmmm...my caring classmate. Tapi sebenarnya, sejak hal itu, aku memang berazam nak datang awal...Setiap kali aku bermalasan mandi awal, ataupun berlengah-lengah waktu bersiap, aku terus teringat Mr Hatta... sekali dengan kerugian yang aku akan terima jika terlepas apa-apa kelas... In a way, it is a good motivation booster for me to start coming ‘EARLIER’, ‘earlier’ NOT ‘early’... or dia telah buat aku jadi penakut agaknya...hehehe...
The next week, it was busy... we got basketball friendly match with KMS...aiyoh , bagi aku agak ‘wrong timing’ jugaklah...Dengan debate, P.Ramlee drama and homework....susahlah, apatah lagi kitaorang tak buat latihan sangat waktu itu...Apapun semua tu alasan...kami main juga dengan KMS dan kalah....maksud aku tak menanglah...hehehe. Selain itu aku dapat souvenirs, jari ibu terkehel dan sakit sengal di belakang aku, sampaikan tak boleh pusing kiri kanan sangat...Budak lelaki mantap, menang... After the game, the girls all make new resolution to start practicing seriously again...apasajalah...aku ikut je...And the Debate , our class win first round, for the next round, Efa take over my place since I did not get to join the discussion. And again our class win. I’m not sure if I’m going to enter the next round...we’ll just see next week...
And now I’m enjoying staying at home, resting after all the hectic schedule at KMB...all the burden from class and other activity...But I think, most burden come from my social life at KMB. I don’t know why, I’m so stressed thinking about that ‘certain someone’ and other people... at some point it become like a ‘social burden’ for me that I really need to get away...to get some space between me and them... Harap-harap belakang aku ni akan beransur pulih dan ‘beban’ yang aku rasa tu akan berkurangan...
Come on, FOCUS Fana! FOCUS! FOCUS! (macam lagu Incubus)
Ps: Kena mula serius belajar , Pure Math, Stats, ...Econ especially..
Pss: Mesti mula datang awal sikit, sebelum 8.00a.m. dah ada di kelas and Finally, try not to think too much about that 'certain someone'...
