Hiya, Juliet here :D

Haven't been writing lately, and I thought I could tell something about my dog.

So, I have a male dog, karelian bear dog and kleinspitz mix. His name is Jeppe an he is 10 years old. He eats nicely, but he have been in a good shape always.

I like his build, he is pretty square and lightweight.
He has nice angles and his lower back is little roundish.

Facts about Jeppe

  • Loves watermelon
  • Has horizontal stripes
  • Follows animal tracks only by my command
  • Does not obey well, but if I ask him to stay in place, I can be pretty sure he won't move
  • Rarely wags his tail, even if he is really happy
  • Hates vacuum cleaner
  • Can pull his head out of collar, but does that only if I ask it to
  • Is very fast
  • Loves snow

Anime recommendation #3

I guess I have way too much time 'cause I can complete animes in a few days :I But whatever, enjoy this recommendation x)

I ran into Osomatsu-san fan art so often on Instagram that I decided to give it a go :P Basically it's about sextuplets who are NEETs (Not in Education, Employment or Training) The anime follows their ''everyday life'', which is far from normal. The show originates from Osomatsu-kun, which is from the 1960s. I haven't watched the original one so I can't really compare them to each other, but the new one is obviously a lot more modern.

The sextuplets are really weird (especially Jyushimatsu), but the whole show pretty is far from normal anyway xD There are some awkward characters like Dayon (his cheeks are huge), Iyami (I have no idea what kind of character he is :I), Dekapan (a random fat guy?) and Chibita, who I actually really liked. His voice was pretty cute even though his seiyuu was a woman.
To introduce the sextuplet the shortly:
Osomatsu is the oldest of them. He doesn't really have anything special that could help with distinguishing him from the others. He kind of acts like the leader, even though he's not the most responsible one.
Karamatsu is a wannabe cool guy :D He wears a leather jacket and sunglasses pretty often. Everyone ignores him, which makes the watchers love him. At least I did :3
Choromatsu is a worrywart. He seems like the most responsible one, but is actually just as stupid as the others. He's also an otaku.
Ichimatsu is my fav of the six :3 Probably because of his seiyuu (Jun Fukuyama ftw <3) He acts like he hates the world but it's probably just his character. He really loves cats.
Jyushimatsu is the crazy one. He can pull of pretty much everything, for example splitting up into bacteria and curing his brothers from a cold. He does have a serious side, too, but doesn't show it that often. (When he does, he makes a huge impact on everyone. *cough* episode 9 *cough*)
Todomatsu is the spoiled youngest brother. He seems like he's all innocent and such, but is actually pretty manipulative. He's a cute character, though. (He's voiced by Haikyuu's Sugawara, aka Miyu Irino)
The alternative egos of the sextuplets. They aren't seen that often, though.
Most of the jokes in Osomatsu-san are really weird, some kind of disgusting and some hilarious. I did laugh out loud while watching. Alone. In my room. x) Even though it's mostly comedy, it has the ability to make the watcher cry. Especially Chibita and Jyushimatsu's cases were really sad T_T

Anyway, I'd recommend Osomatsu-san to anyone who'd like to watch a carefree and random anime, and isn't that strict with the art or so. This isn't everyone's piece of cake, but there are quite a lot of people who enjoyed it. I did, too, even though I was preconceived at first. I ended up really loving it, so you should try, too x)

Anime recommendation #2

Hiyaaaa!

Yesterday I heard about Haikyuu's third season. I was at school so I had to keep myself calm and act at least a little like a normal teenager, but I got really excited. I can't wait for next fall. I'd almost like to say that I want summer to be over, but I won't go that far :D

As you probably already guessed, this recommendation is gonna be about Haikyuu :3 I am not an athletic person, but I still fell in love with it as soon as I started watching it. Our little main character is even smaller (he's such an adorable little bean) at the very beginning as we learn how he got interested in volleyball. His kind of sad and lonely middle school experience makes the watcher love the little baby crow Hinata. The new characters all find a way straight into the watcher's heart (at least in my case xD) as soon as they're introduced.
This is the main character, my baby crow <3
There isn't really a plot, the whole series is just following how Karasuno's volleyball team grows and plays against different opponents (who are really lovable as well (;) It's wonderful to see how each player starts to get better and better as time passes <3 I just started to read the manga and everyone is so different, they're practically infants :D

There isn't a single character that I don't like. They're all so awesome in their own ways. Hinata is like a little ray of sunshine, just like his name says: the 日(hi) in 日向 (hinata) means sun :P He's really quick and can jump so high it could almost be called flying. Hinata gets excited super easily and his energetic personality makes the show really fun to watch.
Kageyama <33
Kags, the grumpy volleyball lover, is such an adorable dork and my favourite character <3 He seems really annoying at first, but he opens up a little later on and is one of the funniest characters in the whole show xD Just watch this little clip xDDD He's like Haru from Free, except he's obsessed with volleyball x)

Another one of my favs is Noya x3 He's the shortest on the team, but fills the gap with his skills. He's an amazing libero and really energetic just like Hinata. And Nobuhiko Okamoto voices him. What more could I ask for? x)

Awesome examples from other teams are Nekoma's little neko Kenma and the tall kitty Lev, Fukurodani's brush-head-owl Bokuto and Aoba Jousai's ladykiller Oikawa (Daisuke Namikawa voices him <33) There are so many others but I love these ones the most x3

The second season'll end this Saturday, but, as I said earlier, the third season will start in fall. While I'm waiting and crying for more, I'm gonna dive into the manga and be really cocky when the new eps air. Nah, jk I don't like that kind of people either so I don't wanna be one of them xDD

So, if you want to watch a comedy anime with wonderful characters, really exciting volleyball matches and awesome art style, Haikyuu is the one for you ;) And I recommend it even to the ones who don't like sports that much x)

But now I'm gonna go watch something completely new and different: Osomatsu-san xD (Ichimatsu is somehow really relatable and my fav at the moment x3 And I love his seiyuu, Jun Fukuyama <33)

Hiya, Juliet here :)

I've been cubing a lot last days and today I finally broke my record :DDDDD
MoYu AoLong
I am so happy, been close so many times but now I made it!
My new personal best is now 28.955 seconds.
Getting closer to my goal, 20 sec.

My friend, I suppose you won't be reading this, but still, thanks for teaching new algorithms :)

And another cubing-related thing, I may be able to buy Megaminx, 2x2 and 4x4 soon :D
I'll let you know if I order cubes.

Anime recommendation #1

Hiyaa, Zani here x)

I started Akagami no Shirayukihime (Snow White with the Red Hair) a few days ago and I already finished the first season and most of the second one as well :D Now I have to wait for new episodes though :I I was already hooked after the very first episode. Shirayuki seemed like a nice heroine, she's not an airhead or anything like that; she's smart and brave and I actually like her xD (Most heroines nowadays are really annoying)




Just look at him :3
There weren't that many characters so their names are pretty easy to remember. (especially because they're so short :D) Zen is really sweet (and pretteh :3), Obi hit me right in the kokoro (especially with Nobuhiko Okamoto voicing him x3), Raji is an adorable and awkward little thing <3 I also really like Kiki and Mitsuhide (otp #2!) and literally everyone else. To me, likable and well written characters make a good anime, just like Haikyuu and Hetalia. Of course plot is important as well.




Or him xD

To tell about the plot shortly, Shirayuki is an herbalist born with unusual red hair, which makes the prince, Raji, ask her to be his concubine. She refuses, runs away and meets another prince, Zen, and his friends. Later on she starts to work in the neighboring kingdom's royal palace as a court herbalist and gets to know a lot of people, good and bad. The first season focuses mostly on Shirayuki and Zen's relationship and the second one on different events that take place in the palace or even other kingdoms.

The main couple x3 (otp #1!)

I've really enjoyed Akagami no Shirayukihime so far and I really want to recommend it to everyone who's interested in a cute little romantic comedy with lovable characters and wonderful art. I think that AnS could also be a great way to get into anime ;)



I'd also like to hear your opinion on this jewel x)

My otaku side x)

When people get to know me, they usually learn about my otaku side pretty quickly. I don't consider myself a dweeb, but I really am in love with Japan, not just the culture. I'd love to travel there, meet new people and get to know more about the country. I do know a little Japanese, I'm actually studying it, but it's not the same as using it to communicate with others.
Kuvahaun tulos haulle haruchika
Haruchika
   
Ao no Kanata
Nijiiro Days













Kuroko no Basuke
Hetalia

Anyway, anime and manga are really important to me nowadays. I've been kinda busy lately so I haven't been able to watch that many episodes, but I have many series I watch when I can. My fav at the moment is Haikyuu's second season <3 I also watch HaruChika, Ao no Kanata and Nijiiro Days. They're new series which are still airing, so I have to wait a week for a new episode.

Akagami no Shirayukihime
Haikyuu!!
I've been watching anime for almost two years now, and completed many series x) My list is steadily growing, the newest one is Akagami no Shirayukihime which I just started watching. (It seems wonderful btw x3) I also watch Kuroko no Basuke every now and then, I haven't been dragged into the fandom yet xD

The biggest anime fandoms I'm in are Hetalia and Haikyuu x3 I've written a few fanfics for APH and I'm planning on writing Haikyuu ones as well. We'll see xD I guess we'll talk about our other fandoms later ^^

Juliet here, good morning :)

I told that I'll tell more about speedcubing later, so here I am.

Speedcubing is my hobby. My good friend taught me to solve 3x3 last summer and I've been cubing since then. I have Pyraminx and 3x3, which is MoYu Along. My personal best solving 3x3 is 29 and half seconds. I am not very fast, but I am learning OLL so I'll be faster.
I can also solve 2x2 and Megaminx.

If there is any speedcubers reading this, let me know in the comments :D

Zani's introduction x)

So, hi and welcome to our blog! I'm Zani, a 17-year-old fangirl from the North :) The other writer is Juliet, who just introduced herself. We're both professional fangirls, and these are my main obsessions:

anime
manga
J-dramas
Japan and Japanese
other shows (e.g Miraculous Ladybug)
music (Twenty One Pilots, One Ok Rock etc)
games (mostly watching others play xD)
YouTube (Dan&Phil)
Instagram


I hope that we'll find some people who can relate to our weirdness at least a little :D

We decided to use Blogger since it's pretty familiar and simple, Tumblr seems like it's a bit too complicated. (I do have a blog in there as well, but I don't really post that often)

Me and Juliet are a bit different as you'll probably see from our posts later on. I think that I'll post drawings, tell about my life or just burst out the feels if I have the need to x) So prepare for that xD

I hope that you'll like our blog :)
