YES!!
CLAIRE'S CDS HAVE FINALLY ARRIVED!!!
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
AFTER 9 DAYS OF ANXIOUS LETTERBOX-CHECKING!
Claire is now a happy fangirl.
And they're still safe, 'cos we haven't been allowed to take the exam papers back home yet.
Trust me, that's a very, Very, VEEEERY good thing.
Because out of all the papers we've checked today (6), I passed only 2...
Not cool. Not cool at all.
Anyways, PHOTOSPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM
EXCUSE MY CRAPPY CAMERA QUALITY.



THE PACKAGING XDDDD
Yes, even the packaging deserves a photo in commemoration. XD
Because it IS what helped safely deliver my wonderful, beautiful, PRICELESS (as if... Claire DID manage to buy it afterall...) CDs from Japan, across the ocean, and to Singapore!
And yet she threw the packaging away without a single glance. -gets shot-



MUKURO-SAMA'S COVERS~
Mukuro-sama, daisukiiiiiiiiiii~~~ <333333 href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw7nliGJAyUYrE6CILkT0BwzyAe1y08-IIQid9Zu_vCS5RxsHpTC7qQHIg5pEuoUGY16D8ugQkqKvaagNMUR3UkwtE61IuwgoBDOq7NjuZnCSbEIjWQtV7x0dCxG-mfab_7HnU4yaSQi4/s1600/Image0300.jpg">

And now, CHROME'S COVERS~
It's just not possible to be this awesome.



Kienai Negai/Setsuna no Kioku CD!
Vongola Crest, = WIN.



Kioku no Hate/Namida no Ondo CD!
I LOVE THE PICTURE ON THE CD
IT JUST CAN'T GET ANY COOLER.
I mean, the Kienai Negai/Setsuna no Kioku CD's awesome enough as it is, but this one's OWNAGE.

TwT It feels so good to be alive.
I may have just blown a quarter of my savings on these, but I am not regretting it a TINY, MINISCULAR, MICROSCOPIC LEVEL BIT.
In fact, probably one of the best decisions I have ever made in my entire LIFE.
Major Mukuro-sama/6996 fangirl that I am.


W-Wait, what?
Reborn Colore only just got restocked yesterday...
And it's already COMPLETELY SOLD OUT IN ONE DAY?!!!!!
I knew it was popular, but not THAT POPULAR.
GAAAAAAAAAAH AND I WAS PLANNING TO ORDER IT TODAY!!!
WHY OH WHY DID MY MUM JUST HAVE TO COME HOME LATE YESTERDAY.
DAMMIT.
Now I'll hafta wait another few MONTHS to get a copy.

I shall refrain from commenting about my exam marks here.
If my mum accidentally sees this page, my ass is as good as gone.
I shall suffer a fate worse than the Six Paths of Hell all at the same time.


A random MSN conversation with my friend.
I love our randomness.
She's not Singaporean, hence her un-Singaporean-ish name, but we get along awesomely.

OFFICIALLY!
END!
OF!
EXAMS!!!!!
FREE-BIRDISM, OH HOW I'VE MISSED YOU SO!
COME TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE--
But, geeeeh, why don't we have marking days?!!
Haven't the teachers learned yet that EVERYONE HATES POST-EXAMS ACTIVITIES?!!!
Whoever planned the events, go jump off a cliff.

Today!
Anime karaoke with Li Wen and Yee Yen!
I have realized...
That I cannot sing karaoke to save my life. T_T
Because I'm lacking the background lyrics, so my tune, timing, and lyrics all get muddled up.
AKA,
I either sing (extremely) off pitch, at the wrong timings, or forget WHERE to sing certain lyrics. T_T
I am utter fail.
I can sing with non-karaoke versions, I swear.
But it seems...
That the only songs I can actually confidently say I sang well are 'concert-ish' songs...? O_____o
In other words!
God knows and Emotion. O_____________________o
I wanted to sing Seikan Hikou as well but the machine couldn't register it. DDD<
Anyways, so random!
I was singing Emotion...
While Li Wen and Yee Yen were going, "Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!"
I was like, "Even though this is a concert song, there isn't really a need to cheer me on like that!"
But they insisted. O_____O
Because, apparently, it's necessary BECAUSE it's a concert song. O_O?!

Let's go back to the Karaoke house again one day!
I'll practise hard at karaoke singing until then! D<
Fight on, Claire!

HAHAHA I WILL DO ANYTHING FOR MY FANDOM!
And yes, I really DID order Character CDs.
Fear me.
Hurry up and arrive!!
Before I get my papers back!!!!
If you arrive AFTER that there's a high chance that my mum's gonna toss you outta the window!
Although I'll allow her to do that over my dead body, and even then my corpse will put up the greatest fight ever witnessed in history.
The day you arrive, I will lock myself in my room and play you on repeat, for a full 24 hours straight.

Anyways, I finally found a full of Tokyo's Rebocon concert.
-cries tears of joy-
My life is complete.
I can die a happy fangirl.
When my CDs come, that is.
I will not die until I get to breathe on my beautiful, BEAUTIFUL Character CDs.
So, to find the vids...
Just go to youtube and type in, 'R-Con 2010'.
Yep.
It's the Tokyo version!
Meaning that Squalo and Lal are the guests!
In another version (I forget which), it's Bel and Mammon.
In the Kobe version, it's Lussuria and Levi.
XDDD
I still think the Bel and Mammon version is the best, though.

Is it just me, or are my posts starting to sound more and more like a fic? O____o
I notice that some parts sound like my Crack! fics, and there are even quotation marks for speeches.
This is what you call and Occupational Hazard to the extreme!



Just a little art to show that I AM practicing!
Hmm, not bad.
Done within half an hour, including the little red eye coloring.
That means that I managed to do a rough sketch (light blue), rough outline (black) and a little coloring within that time-frame.
And the best part is...
I drew good proportions without even trying.
-tears of joy-
Good joy, Claire, at this rate, you'll be able to make decent fanart by the end of the year.
Never give up!

I love the way I draw heads. <33

Well I did say that I would TRY making my last post the last one until after exams...
I didn't say it definitely would be.
Actually it WOULD have been...
Except that Diavolofamiglia put up the link to Rebocon III...
Which made me go on a fangirl spree to look for the entire video.
...And I haven't found the full, by the way...
Stupid Megavideo cut off the vid less than half an hour into it. =____=
I suppose I should be grateful that I was able to watch 1/8th of it...
Normally, I wouldn't even be able to watch any at all.
But... DAMMIT-----!!!! TT______________TT

Simply put, of what I watched...
CLAIRE WAS 100% MESMERIZED!!! 8DDDDDDDD
Oh yeaaaaah.
All the seiyuus are AWESOME COOL!!!
...But I shan't comment on Neeko's (Reborn) pink mohawk...
Then again she IS the one who goes around wearing all the totally weird outfits...
Ahem!
Soooo...
Let's list what I managed to watch off Megavideo and whatever snippets I managed to watch off Youtube separately...

Megavideo!!
Pretty much just introduction.
Oh yeah, if anyone's computer can watch Megavideo...
Here's the link to Diavolofamiglia.
The link to Rebocon is the very last post of the page.
www.diavolofamiglia.wordpress.com
Here ya go!
First, all the male character seiyuus minus Lambo enter in twos!
Sing Easy Go 8DDDDDDDDDDDDD
OMG LOVE LOVE LOVE!!
I was like, SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~~~~~~~~~
And Kondo(Hibari-san) is SOOOOOO un-Hibari-san-like!!
He's hyperactive!! OAAAAO
I had a nosebleed at Tonoshibu (Mukuro-sama)!!
GYAAAAH TONOSHIBU LOOKS SO HOT XDDD TRULY FIT TO BE MUKURO-SAMA'S SEIYUU!!!
I love his long brown hair 8DDDDD
Next!
Girl character seiyuus plus Lambo enter singing Last Cross!!
I screamed okay, Last Cross is OWN.
And it was made even more awesome by all of them singing.
After the singing, and a gatecrashing by Squalo-san, everyone introduces themselves, along with a sentence/phrase/quote that their respective character says.
Eg, Ichinose (Gokudera) gets the whole crowd to say 'Jyuudaime konbanwa!!'
The crowd naturally very eagerly follows whatever each seiyuu wants them to say. XDD
I found that so DARNED CUTE X3333333
EVERYONE WAS SO IN CHARACTER~~~~~
HAHA TONOSHIBU'S INTRODUCTION WAS THE BEST XDDD
Of course!
Before he even said anything, like even 'konbanwa, minna' or something, THE WHOLE CROWD SCREAMED.
And he was like O_____________O Then started kufufu-ing XDDDD
MUKURO-SAMA DAISUKIIIIIIIIIIIIII~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <33333333333333
Satomi (Chrome) is really pretty :D
In fact personally I think she's the prettiest of all the female seiyuus. :DDDDD
And even her normal speaking voice is MELODIC I TELL YOU 8DDDDDDD
I actually feel honored that my singing sounds like hers at a certain pitch now *A*
OH AND ONE THING I OBSERVED THAT MADE ME FANGIRL MADLY AND RABIDLY
REAL-LIFE 6996?!!!
Tonoshibu kept looking at Satomi at any possible opportunity, and smiling in this super gentle way, AND KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH CLAIRE'S BRAIN EXPLODES KABLAM.
PLEASE PLEASE LET THERE BE REAL-LIFE 6996!!
And I swear Tonoshibu and Satomi would be good together 8DDDDDDDD
Then after all the introductions...
Ohyama (Byakuran) and Toyonaga (Irie) GATECRASHED!!! 8DDDDD
Ohyama suddenly appeared on the big screen and started speaking XDDD
Yukari (Tsuna) was like, IT'S BYAKURAN! DDDX
XDDD
Toyonaga...
HE'S SO DARN CUTE
He stood up from the crowd, wearing a jacket that looked REALLY like the White Spell's, and had Irie-san's hair and glasses!!!
All the other seiyuus were like, come on stage!
But he was like, urgh no cannot my stomach hurts.
ACTING SO IN CHARACTER~~
<33333333333333333
I love everyone. <33333

I promptly got cut off soon after Ryohei's seiyuu started singing T_T
But it was so amusing to see Inoue (Yamamoto) and Ichinose running in to dance at random times XDD
Later in they both brought in giant flags to wave about XDDDDD

Now to Youtube snippets...
Sadly, there's a HUGE shortage of Rebocon III videos...
(They all got removed T_T)
But my ultimate love:



ORETACHI NO YAKUSOKU GOKUDERA AND TSUNA VERS.!!!!
Okay, explanation behind it all.
There's this mini section, where the seiyuus do requests or something similar.
This mini-mini section consists of 2 random characters singing a random character song.
Selection: CHOICE battle style!
Inoue volunteers to press the buttons.
First button: randomization begins!
Second button: Tsuna! (People start screaming)
Third button: Gokudera! (MORE people start screaming)
Fourth button: Oretachi no Yakusoku (Whole crowd literally starts screaming and Claire died due to overexcessive nosebleeding.)
I laughed at Yukari's initial refusal to sing.
But she got into the modd pretty quickly XDDD
<333 AT HER DANCING BEHIND ICHINOSE XDDDD
HAHA THEIR SINGING IS WIN, EVEN WITH THE SONG AS A TV SIZE VERSION~~
Ichinose is even more obsessessed with his Jyuudaime than Gokudera himself!!
And the best part is...
HE'S NOT ACTING XDD
He's very obviously like that!!
MAJOR CUTE WHENEVER HE SPEAKS TO YUKARI/TSUNA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG
Especially after singing the first verse when he went, "Jyuu~ Dai~ Me~!"
SO CUTE ICHINOSE I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU
HAHAHAHAHA AMD OMG I LOVE THE ENDING TO THE EXTREME AFTER THEY FINISHED SINGING <3333
Ichinose: "Jyuudaime~~~!!" -runs towards Yukari-
Yukari: "YAMAMOTO TAKESHIIIIIIIIIIII!!" -runs away from Ichinose-
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
And Inoue, I can't really understand what he's saying, but it's probably something along the lines of, "Why'd Tsuna call my name????" XDDDD
MAJOR
WIN
I'm 100% neutral to 5927 but the seiyuus are actually making me reconsider that. XDD

Next vid, self-explanatory, since there're subs and all.



<333333333333333333333
I'm loving Ichinose more and more by the second.
The way he's acting in character, without having to ACT in character!
Oh yeah, and anyone notice that they're got mini Vongola boxes? <33333

I managed to find a link for the concert extras!
Like... live singing by additional characters and all.
It's a chinese web, but I don't think it matters cos all you need to do is click the play button anyways.
Ya might wanna consider leaving it to sit for like an hour or so first tho... it's taking kinda long to load and keeps pausing halfway DDDDDDDDDDD:
http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/9gAHZEtkzV4/

And a web I found for some of the extra songs!!
http://community.livejournal.com/hitman_reborn/tag/seiyuu%20downloads
No Control live, one word:
Scream, faint and die.
Okay, 3 words then.
Toyonaga, TOTALLY SMEXY AHAHAHAHAHA
Yes I have no shame XDDD
He sure knows how to make the fangirls scream.
Kyokugen Fighter by Ryohei and Kyoko...
Kyoko's kinda soft.
Burning Prayer by Bel and Mammon: <3333333333333333333
Lal Mirch is awesome enough, but these 2 just PUT HER SINGING TO SHAME <33333
Why couldn't they have done longer versions dammit?!!!
Only No Control is full T_T
BEL'S VOICE GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH I'M GONNA DIE OF HIS WINNESS.
Mammon gets a little shaky near the end though.
Oretachi no Yakusoku by Gokudera and Tsuna, see the section above.
You can hear lots of fangirls screaming in the background though.
Kufufu no Fu Mukuro-sama with Chrome version:
My life is complete. -dies happily-
Kinda weird to imagine Chrome singing it though. O____O
And she sounds a bit higher pitched than normal, but I'm happy.
PFFFFTH AT CHROME ATTEMPTING TO GO KUFUFU THOUGH.
SHE SOUNDS SO CUTE.
YOU GO, MUKURO-SAMA!!!

If only I could find somewhere to buy it T_T
Yes, even online is MORE THAN FINE WITH ME.
I WANT IT GOSHDAMMIT.
I WOULD KILL FOR IT.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDX
IF ANYONE IS GOING TO JAPAN THIS YEAR AT ALL, BUY IT FOR ME.
I'LL PAY YOU BACK 2 TIMES. DDDDDDDDX
PLEASE TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT_____________________TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Or can someone help me find a web selling it online?!!
No matter the price, I will buy!!!!
I've searched the whole of Google to no avail. T_T
REBORN SAIKYOU NO CARNIVAL III I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
