23rd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE IDOL: Tamura Eriko + Idol Densetsu Eriko WRITER: Mr.Patricia(FEMALE/age:26-30/SPAIN) |
|
| Eriko Tamura has a wonderful sweet voice!! She was a success when she was young, now she became a talented actress. The series was made to promote her singing career. It was a short career, but she gave us pretty good sweet songs.^^ I also recommend the rest of singers in the series, like Maiko Hashimoto and Masahiko Arimachi. Great!! It is really a must see and must listen for anime fans. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE SINGER: Wings of Honneamise (animated feature film) WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| An arthouse animated feature bout mankind's first foray into space, but it takes place in an alternate universe with an exotic culture that feels like a parallel universe. It's a very mature and serious film, with political intrigue, assassination, countries at war, and personal spiritual struggles. The film score is produced and partly composed by Academy Award winning composer, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and it's one of my favorite film scores. The film was made by amateurs that's only made a fan film prior, but after this film, they've proven themselves to be some of the best and brightest in the anime industry, and they went on to produce many excellent works as Gainax, one of the most respected animation studios in Japan. Among their works are: Gunbuster, Nadia the Secret of Blue Water, Neon Genesis Evangelion, FLCL, Otaku No Video..etc. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE SINGER: Olivia Lufkin WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Stunningly beautiful, gorgeous voice, and talented songwriter. The mixture of different styles is right up my alley. Being half American and half Japanese also gives her a unique angle creatively. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE IDOL: Kawai Sonoko WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Lovely voice and lovely music. The most elegant pop music, and quite a talented songwriter/composer. (I only like albums starting with "Rouge et Bleu." Before that album, she was still too young and the music not very profound.) | |
| NO.012 DATE:
22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE BAND: PSY'S WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Japanese experimental pop band uses clever arrangements, utilizing a wide range of musical styles. Definitely one of the best pop bands ever! An interesting trivia for you: The music on the game PaRappa the Rapper was composed and produced by the songwriter of Psy S. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE SINGER: Morikawa Miho WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| One of my favorite Japanese artists. Miho has a very nice tonal range in her voice, and the music is an unique blend of pop, jazz, bossa nova, carribean, rock, funk..etc that sounds like nothing I've ever heard. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE ANIME: Macross Perfect Complete(original animation soundtrack) WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Splendid mixture of classical, jazz, pop, folk, and rock. I was in awe of it at age 13. I'm still in awe of it today. In many ways, this animated masterpiece was the spark that ignited the flame which made me want to become an artist/writer/musician/director. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE MOVIE: Michi(feature film) WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
NO PHOTO |
| Touching, sad, thought-provoking, and very hard to find. This film captures the desperation and heartbreak of finding dreams and love, then losing everything in a blink of an eye. If you know where I can buy this film, please contact me. The plot revolves around a middle-aged truck driver and his partner, and how they both are pursuing their dreams and trying to find happiness in love. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE ANIME: Grave of the Firefly(animated feature film) WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Must see for anyone, regardless if you like animation or not. It's just a beautiful and moving masterpiece, period. If you don't cry at the end of this film, you probably don't have a heart or a soul. The film is about a Japanese boy and his little sister, trying to survive on their own during the American bombings in the middle of WWII. Intensely moving and heartbreaking. Animated films like this transcend genres and mediums. | |
| NO.005 DATE:
22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE SINGER: Sakamoto Ryuichi WRITER: Mr.Lunatique(MALE/age:34/USA) |
|
| Sakamoto Ryuichi is one of my heroes. Not only is he a brilliant composer/musician, he is also a activist for human rights, environmental issues, political issues..etc. He is a pacifist, and often uses his music to help the causes he believes in. He was once a member of the innovative techno-pop band, Yellow Magic Orchestra, and then went on to become an Academy Award winning composer. He collaborates with some of the most talented musicians and filmmakers around the world, and is an advocate of technology and harmony with nature. There is simply nothing about the man that I can criticize--an all-around human being worthy of our highest respect. If you've seen him on Japanese comedy/variety shows, you'll see that he also has a great sense of humor and does not act like an arrogant prick, which too many people do when they reach his level of talent and recognition. | |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE ANIME: BUBBLE GUM CRISIS WRITER: Mr.Himitsu(MALE/age:16-20/IRELAND) |
|
| My favourite
anime is the OVA series Bubble Gum Crisis. It's a story about a group of four women, the
"Knight Sabers" who fight against the villians in the futuristic city of
MegaTokyo in 2033. I love this anime because it is a great, well written and action-packed
series,and also the music (especially the vocal songs by the seiyuus) are really really
great! OTHER FAVORITE IDOL: CoCo, ribbon, Miura Rieko, Seno Azusa, Saito Yuki |

22nd/DEC/2006 MY FAVORITE ANIME: CITY HUNTER WRITER: Mr.Masa(MALE/age:26-30/JAPAN) |
|
| CITY HUNTER is
my favorite anime. This Story is a kind of mixed hard-boiled and comedy. The main
character is "Ryo Saeba" who is a frugal person in Shinjuku but he never accept
the request for money. Only he accepts the request is when his heart is shacked. Ryo
always gets a request from a beautiful woman and he solves their problems with cool action
and funny comedy. Ryo is usually just a lazy man about town, but sometimes he is so cool
and strong to protect his friends and clientele. He is my hero. OTHER FAVORITE ANIME: Ganba no boken, uchusen sazitarius, gyakuten ippatsuman |
