Kamisama Hajimemashita (kamisama kiss)

These past two weeks have been like my anime phase. I haven't been like this since 8th grade! It feels nice~~ so I watched like 4 series in 4 days but in total these two weeks I have seen about 8 anime series.(since I have written this, I have watched currently 14 anime series lol )
One that I watched is called kamisama Hajimemashita which was so funny and sweet! The animation was beautiful. Usually, when I watch an anime it was because 1) the animation looked really pretty or 2) someone recommended it to me or 3) I look for similar ones to the ones I have seen. 

This one was one I found because of youtube and thank god!! This anime consists of 13 episodes and once you start you wish for it to not end. I wished it had more episodes >.< Noooo! I do not accept this to be over >.<

Well, this is about a girl who is just a normal high school girl (they always are :P) who ends up being the Earth deity with a demon fox as her familiar (assistant?) and they have to do their jobs and complete tasks. Other gods and demons don't accept her because she is human but with her sweet and beautiful personality she wins people over (duh <3) Anyways, I don't want to say much and spoil it but I promise you if you liked Fruits basket, Gakuen Alice, ouran high school host club and similar anime to this then you would love this one. ~ 

Tomoe is the Fox demon and he is so freaking sexy~~~~
Highly recommend it ~^^


This is currently my Desk top background <3 I love it~~~~

Winx Club Season 3 (4kids) & Winx Club Season 4 (nick version)

Alright, if you read my previous post, I stated I was re-watching an old fave show of mine while growing up. A lot has been going on in my life and I have been very busy but that did not stop me from watching tv shows and working out ;) (I will post workout posts later) 

So like I said in the the other post, while growing up, I watched Winx Club 4kids version and was so used to their voices. Unfortunately, 4kids ended the show with season 3 and did not continue :( After I finished season 3 I was devastated and not sure if I should continue by watching the Rai version or Nick version. I started a few episodes with Rai but it was just terrible. Their voices were ugly and they all sounded the same! So I went to the nick version. At  first I was a little unsure about it. But after a couple episodes I got used to their voices and I liked how it still looked like the art from the previous versions but just a little more touched up. The songs were catchy too~~

Don't get me wrong! 4kids will always be my favorite but I love the nick version too <3 

I also have to say in Season 4 their is more romance in the tv show. <3 I love romance!! I will get into the couples later in the post but first lets talk about forms!

In season 1, the fairies transform into their first fairy form like anyone else. As the show develops some more you see how they slowly upgrade and gain new skills. 
First, they received Charmax. Which to me wasn't that amazing >.< They basically still look the same but with a purse lol ~ Here is their Charmax form: 
Bloom Charmix 



Then in Season 3, they received Enchantix. Their Enchantix form is pretty <3 
My favorite Enchantix forms were from Stella, Flora and Musa. The other girls were very pretty too but 
I just enjoyed the other girls transformation the most. Flora is my fave <3 She is so pretty! 





Their next form in Season 4 was Believix and that was when the girls have to go to Earth to find the last fairy on Earth before the new villains get her. To achieve this form they have to get people to believe in magic and in them.  My favorite was Floras <3 






So those are the formations from Season 3 and 4 ^^ I am currently on Season 5 where they achieved both Harmonix and Sirenx 

What I liked a lot about Season 4 was more interactions between the couples. <3 This post is already really long so I think I will have separate posts for the villains and pets/sidekicks for each season later. I will also dedicate a post to the couples <3 But I have to say my fave couple will always be Helia and Flora. I also really like Riven and Musa.

Sleepy Hollow

I started watching this show with my boyfriend because he wanted to see it and it looked very interesting when he sent me the trailer. I am absolutely in love with it! It has such a great plot, actors, twist... Everything!
I can't wait for it to come back~~

Here is a description:

In this modern-day twist on Washington Irving's classic, ICHABOD CRANE (Tom Mison, “Salmon Fishing in the Yemen”) is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to unravel a mystery that dates all the way back to the founding fathers. Revived alongside Ichabod is the infamous Headless Horseman who is on a murderous rampage in present-day Sleepy Hollow. Ichabod quickly realizes that stopping Headless is just the beginning, as the resurrected rider is but the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and only one of the many formidable foes that Ichabod must face to protect not only Sleepy Hollow, but the world.

As Ichabod finds himself in 2013's Sleepy Hollow, he discovers a town he no longer recognizes and
grapples to understand. Teaming up with Lt. ABBIE MILLS (Nicole Beharie, “42,” “The Good Wife,” “Shame”), a young cop who has her own supernatural experiences, the two embark on a mission to stop the evil that has awoken along with Ichabod and that now is seeping into this once-sleepy town.

Clues from the past enlighten mysteries in the present, as each episode features a flashback to Ichabod's life in 1776. Ripe with untold stories from American history and cloaked in mythology, the divide between present and past becomes dangerously blurred. Lives are in the balance, including that of Ichabod's late wife, KATRINA (Katia Winter, “Dexter”), who is trapped in a mysterious netherworld. In his pursuit to save her, Ichabod uncovers secrets about her, leaving him with countless questions. 

Not everyone believes Ichabod's tales of 1776 and supernatural evils, especially the new head of Abbie's police precinct, Captain FRANK IRVING (Orlando Jones, “The Chicago 8,” “Drumline”). When faced with bizarre events he can't explain, Capt. Irving reluctantly turns to Ichabod and Abbie to investigate. 

Ichabod's extensive first-hand knowledge of our country's hidden history, coupled with Abbie's superior profiling and modern threat assessment skills, make them a formidable duo. The complex pasts of the pair, from Ichabod's inclusion in the powerful and secretive Freemasons Society to Abbie's childhood visions, will help them solve the intricate puzzles of Sleepy Hollow in order to protect its – and the world's – future. As history repeats itself, the oddly-linked pair will draw on the real stories and secrets this nation was founded on in their quest to stop an increasingly vicious cycle of evil. 

Look at the trailer: 



I really love Ichabod <3 He is such a great actor. I have never been so immersed and captive by a character, ever! He truly was remarkable. I can't wait for the season to return. 

I do advise though if you are weak on some scary things about demons and stuff then don't watch it at night! haha :)

I don't know what else to say but that I really recommend this show even if you think this kind of theme does not interest you. Trust me, he will capture you and have your attention ^^ What I also loved a lot about the show was how funny it was sometimes. Some lines that Tom says are so funny! He played Ichabods part very well. 

One scene that I will never forget will be the scene where he is using the computer for the first time and he is trying to decipher something and he accidentally goes into a very sexy site ;) and he says  something along the lines of "I am sorry, madam. However, I am taken." I can't remember too well. But it was so funny when he said that and then closes the laptop. Then opens it hoping the girl leaves the screen but then quickly shuts it when she says "I am still here."

Winx Club Season 1 and Season 2 (4kids version)

I was born in the year 1993 and while growing up I have to say I had great entertainment. I remember so many of my favorite shows. Shows I would watch after school, in the mornings while my parents got ready for work and most of all the shows I would wake up early on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I will eventually talk about all of them but for now I want to talk about Winx Club.

I have recently gotten this spark of motivation to watch all of those shows I have seen as a kid. It feels great! I can't stop smiling and laughing. I am reliving the feelings I had as a kid when I watched all of these cartoons. I don't watch T.V so much anymore but when I do its with my nieces. It is so disappointing seeing the shows for kids nowadays. It is not as funny or appropriate. :( I don't know the name of the cartoons I saw with them but I have to say for cartoons with some sexual sub-messages and basically showing kids its alright to cheat is so wrong. Definitely, can not have kids watching that.

I was on Pinterest the other day and I stumbled upon this picture that was so accurate. Now, this is isn't a cartoon but it implies to basically all the shows/cartoons as well from the past. Plus, I loved Boy meets world! <3
The caption is so true though!~

Let's go back to the Winx Club.~ ^^ I remember when I first saw this cartoon I couldn't stop singing the opening song. It was so catchy and seeing such pretty outfits in the opening makes you already reeled in. I would wake up every Saturday morning at 8AM to catch the new episodes. Heck! even the reruns~~ I loved 4kids! <3 I remember I would watch Winx Club then Bratz. I also watched Yugioh, Teenage Mutant ninja turtles, Magical Doremi, and so much more that I can't remember at this moment. 

As I grew up, I slowly stopped waking up so early but I never once forgot about my adventure and memories with Winx. I remember only watching up to the beginning episodes of Season 2. Now, I re-watched all of Season 1 and 2. I am currently watching Season 3. When I was younger my favorite characters was Bloom and Flora. My favorite heroes were Riven, Brandon and Sky. I really liked Musa and Riven couple though. However, Riven in mid season 1 was very douchey. But he gets better ;) Also let me add there are three versions of Winx Club. Which are 4kids version, Rai english version, and the newest version, the Nickelodeon version. My favorite is 4kids version because that is the one I grew up with and I am used to the voices from that one. 

***I am watching Season 3 now but some episodes look familiar, so I guess as a kid I saw some of these. 

Season 1:
 
Season 1 starts off with the main character Bloom finding out she is a fairy. The first season is basically Bloom coping with her new life in this school for fairies and new realms. She encounters adventures and battles. Deep down she has such an immense power that the three main witches want to steal from her. She also meets this guy named Brandon (which his real name is Sky). Musa, Bloom, Techna, Flora, and Stella work together along with the other fairies, witches and heroes to defeat the three evil witches (Icy, Darcy, Stormy)

I really liked this season. There were a lot of funny moments between the girls and I loved the romance with the guys. I have to say my favorite episode is the one where she just started going to the school and goes to the dance with this cute outfit she made. I liked it because of her outfit <3 Its hard to choose which one I liked the most.

Season 2:

In Season 2, a new girl gets introduced. Layla, Princess of the tides gets added to the group. Now, the girls are struck by an old enemy and a new enemy. The trio (Icy, Darcy, and Stormy) return with the Dark lord. Bloom, Musa, Flora, Stella, Layla and Techna must work together as a team to defeat this enemy. of course the boys help as well. In this Season, pixies are brought in and new love lines. In the first season, the two main couples were BloomxSky and StellaxBrandon. They hinted on Techna and Timmy but nothing really deepened. Same for Riven and Musa. Poor Flora was all alone! or not... In this season they introduce Flora's love <3 His name is Helia. Now, the one who is single is Layla. In Season 2, besides fighting evil, learning new spells, couples forming, love deepening and all but the girls received their Charmax. Which is like they leveled up.

I liked this season a lot because of the love lines and how the couples are getting more focused now. When I was younger I don't remember what I thought about Layla but watching it now I neither like her or hate her. She is just bleh. haha I still haven't gotten used to her. I am really loving Helia though. Now my favorite couple is Flora and Helia.

Let me introduce the girls!

Inuyasha | Season 1 & Season 2

These past few days, I have this rekindling passion to watch all my favorite shows when I was younger/shows I liked and one of those was Inuyasha. I watched the first two seasons in three days. I have to say I really liked the first season a lot because that is when Inuyasha and Kagome are just starting to interact. Their constant bickering was so cute because well they are just perfect for each other. I really love when the show connects both eras. I love it when Kagome brings things from home and Inuyasha and shippo have such a surprised face. I think it is funny and adorable when they are being introduced to new things from her era. ^^ So I liked the first season for that reason. I love when they slowly meet the other main characters and they just begin their journey.

The first season flew really fast for me. When I got to the second season it took a little longer. I loved it, don't get me wrong. There were still plenty humorous moments and loving moments. However, season two was a lot of fighting. Which I know that is the whole point of the show. Fighting demons and getting the shards back. Its just I am a hopeless romantic and I want to see the love between Inuyasha and Kagome ignite. Some of the fighting scenes were really cool and kept me intrigued! I just felt like every episode back to back was a fight and it would last the whole episode. Can't they fight, end it and then flirt! LOL >.< Season 2 though had episodes that became my favorite. I really liked the episodes with the wolf demon in it. I loved seeing the jealousy from Inuyasha. I am currently watching Season 3 and I can't remember if the episode I am about to talk about was from season 2 or season 3. However, I really loved the episode where Shippo gets a letter from the demon who wants revenge on its people. So shippo goes and it turns out to be a kid. It was such a funny and cute episode.

I love the main characters but Inuyasha is by far my fave. He is so cute, funny and dorky. When I first saw Inuyasha it was probably when I was like 9 or 10. I stayed up late with my brother watching shows on Cartoon network. At some point, it changed to Adult swim. My brother and I did not know what happened to cartoon network haha~ We had never stayed up that late. But the first show on Adult swim at the time was Inuyasha. Its like at that moment my eyes opened and saw something beautiful for the first time *angels  singing*~ I loved the music even though it was in another language. I loved everything! From then on I would try to stay up to catch episodes.

Eventually, I stopped and when I grew older I tried to watch it again online. I love the faces Inuyasha makes so much!! I wish he was real.... >.< Well, let me show you some pics ^^

Inuyasha is a very long anime but it is worth to see. I hope to see all seasons and movies and really recommend it too ^^ Enjoy~

Hotarubi no Mori e (Japanese anime movie)

I have seen a lot of Japanese animated movies and I stumbled upon this one at work when I logged into YouTube. I was so hooked immediately. It was so cute and the animations were superb. I thought the main guy was so cute and the love that developed between him and the girl was so beautiful. The ending was so bitter sweet. I couldn't help just wishing I could change it and let them be able to touch one another forever.

Hotarubi no Mori e ( Into the forest of fireflies light)

I was at work when I was watching it/ listening to it and this movie developed smiles on my face and laughter that I had to try not to show. The hardest part was not to cry at work. This movie made me cry inside. I died and was reborn. lol >.<

First let me show you some nice pictures from the movie~













Now let me show you how I was at the end of the movie while I was at work~~

I was like "oohhh noo..."

Then I was like...

But I was like...I can't...

I went home like this...


Overall, the movie was beautiful and I really recommend people to watch it. If you do want to watch it then here is the link ^^ Enjoy~
