God, that pompous asshole really doesn’t know when to quit. Oy, taking other people’s music and adding korean lyrics to doesn’t count as “composing”. Just because his fans are too obsessed to actually listen to his songs doesn’t mean other people, those produced those songs for example, won’t realize that “oh, that song sounds EXACTLY like mine except in Korean and crappy Engrish”.
Heartbreaker and Butterfly are examples of this scoundrel’s lying, cheating ways and it pisses me off how his fans just lap it up and act like he’s a genius. He’s short, fugly, and talentless. He doesn’t deserve his fame, and Netizens should have ran him out of Korean rather than Jaebom.
-end of rant-
In other news. 2PM is releasing a new album. I want to listen to it but I kind of don’t…
I’m a total Inuyasha dork right now. I finished the old anime and the manga and in the end, based on the evidence given, I drew up conclusions as to who’s better than who in the series. And with strong fangirl bias, here’s how it goes:
1. Sesshomaru>Inuyasha
This one was a doozey. Oh come on, it’s not like this isn’t true. You all know that the older brother is hotter taller, dresses better, fight better, cooler, and much more amazing than the younger one. Plus, Sesshomaru is so much more interesting. You can never get tired of reading about him. He’s one of those character that has so much mystery about them that you can’t help but want to know more. Inuyasha is okay but he’s like a boy. Sesshomaru is a total MAN.
On a side note, I was SOOOO happy when Sesshomaru got his arm back and a brand new sword to boot! Screw those old hand-me-down blades, a new katana is so much better. I really love how the author gave each brother their own development and path with the swords. Inuyasha, a half demon, needs the power of Tessaiga to protect himself so his father gave him that sword. Sesshomaru, a full demon, already has enough power so he doesn’t need help from his father. Instead he has to help himself and use his own sword. What a great epiphany I had eh?
2. Kikyo>Kagome
I know they’re almost the same person but Kikyo is so much better. Kagome is a lot better than the average main girl in a series but she doesn’t stand on equal ground with her dead other self. Though she’s a dead bitch, Kikyo is really badass. She’s always there with super powerful sacred arrows that scares the crap out of evils and Naraku. Kikyo is also prettier than Kagome. Kagome look really average and boring. She [Kagome] also has the power of the sacred arrows but her aim isn’t that as good as Kikyo.
3. NarakuxKikyo is my OTP
In a sick and twisted way, this is my favorite couple from the series. They’re like Blair and Chuck but actually evil.
4. Sesshomaru and Rin is totally adorable.
I see them more as a father and daughter than a romantic couple. They’re really really cute. I love the way Sesshomaru is so protective of her. When you google “sesshomaru and rin”, you find a lot of pages talking about the Hell arc, but I think the best sesshomaruxrin moments were in the last chapters where they fight Naraku. Sesshomaru’s hesitation to attack Naraku with Bakusaiga because he might hurt Rin says a lot of about his desire to protect her over his passionate hatred toward Naraku.
Rumiko Takahashi is an amazing mangaka. I was really annoyed when I saw that Inuyasha had over 500 chapters (like dude, that’s a whole lot of paper she’s using) because like seriously, how much manga do you need to tell her story of a demon boy and a young girl fighting evil. Buuuuttt, apparently, there’s more to the story and Rumiko Takahashi built up so much and created so many good characters that there was always something to fill up the pages. A great writer always have something to write. I also love how she never resort to fanservice or melodrama. Her characters never have to be over-the-top. She never have to draw anything outside of what she needs to. Her writing and art are really to the point. There are some really annoying fillers and the story does drag sometimes but everything has its importance.
INUYASHA’s best points are the important things that many new mangaka have forgotten to include in their work, story and character. I really love this manga and anime. I hope Sunrise continue to do a great job with the new anime.
..is this^
I even went back and watched a buttload of old episodes just to find the ones with Sesshomaru action. He’s so cool! I can’t wait till the Hell arc gets animated. Sesshomaru deserves like 10 episodes to himself. There were waaaayy to many fillers in the old version about shippou, Sanga, and Mikoru. I want more Sesshomaru!
Actually, the plot of Inuyasha is pretty good once you get into it. It was dragged on for way too long in the old version, but I don’t feel like 26 episodes for the new version is enough. They really could have paced it better.
I really like how I can watch all the episodes including the new ones in high quality+subs on Hulu for FREE (boy doesn’t that just sound like I ripped it off an infomerical). Viz must be feeling really generous these days. I wonder how they’re making money. My hypothesis is that the commercials not only pay Hulu, but Viz as well.

isn't he lovely?
I was bored during fall break and sushi is not happening until next saturday so I decided to read this.
I like the manga so far, but dude, Lucrezia need to do something other than cry. She’s like a wash cloth; you never see her dry. She’s like the most annoying damsel in distress ever!
I’m on volume 8 and have the biggest urge to skip 2 volumes ahead because it’s going really slow. Plus, 300 pages of the same girl crying and being saved by the same guy gets kind of old.
Caesare is kind of weird. I’m mostly apathetic toward the guy but he’s my favorite character in the manga ATM.
Even thought it’s written by the artist for Gakuen heaven, it’s not yaoi and the shounen-ai is kinda-sorta-but-not-really shounen-ai. It’s like 99% shoujo and 1% hinted boy love (I’ve seen more boobs and straight sex than I would care to see) The art is really nice and detailed. I love Yuu Higuri’s crisp lines and intricate costumes. All her characters are gorgeous and well proportioned
He hasn’t done anything since he got into office. No, going on random late night talk shows and making stupid comments doesn’t not count as “doing anything”.
What is up with the reasoning?
his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation between peoples
What are you talking about? Did he actually made anything happened? Did he actually strengthen international diplomacy and co-operation or are they just giving him an A for Effort?
I’m not a Republican. I’m not a Democrat. I’m just stating what I think.
The Nobel Peace Prize is such a joke now. It’s like the committee is trying to get some attention by giving it to a popular president.
I’m not racist. I absolutely believe that Dr. Martin Luther King Junior deserved his Nobel Prize because he was a great man who had great dreams and successfully changed things. The thing with Obama is that even he has great dreams, he can’t get anything done. Giving people hope is not good enough. He has a job that he have not been able to carry out. I don’t think people who can’t get things done deserve awards.
I don’t hate Obama. I think he’s okay, but he’s definitely not Nobel Prize material.

First off, ACT tomorrow. FML.
second, taking four APs kills you mentally faster than….uh…nvm..too braindead to be thinking of anything witty. I’m usually brilliant and write like a pro but every has their off days. ha.
So much for my plan of having a happy year. So much stuff to do. Junior year is death.
My asianness compels me to over work. So far, I have been successful politically (Vice President of Science Olympiad, Junior Class Secretary, Class Representative, and a to-be Mu Alpha Theta Treasurer)
My extracurricular activities this year include science olympiad and forensics and many others volunteering activities. I’m trying out for the Bowling team.
There’s so much so much so much so much stress.
This is a program that I’m currently dying to get into: http://pty.vanderbilt.edu/vsa.html
It’s a program for those smart and talented kids. I’m neither but I think the classes look really interesting.
Watched 200 Pounds Beauty and bawled like a baby. Do go check it out. The acting is pretty good.
I finished Boys Over Flowers and couldn’t stop rolling my eyes. It’s such a retarded show. Don’t bother watching it.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
JAEBEEEOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
I can’t believe this at all!! Some Korean fans are WAAAYYY over the top. A retarded Myspace comment from 4 YEARS AGO should not ruin your career. The worst thing is that they even signed a suicide petition! WTF?
Now Jaebeom has to quit. It’s so retarded!!
Jaebeom is so right. Korea is gay. grrr.
This is what I’m watching right now instead of doing my Bio lab. It’s pretty typical but really addicting. I don’t Goon Jun Pyo; he’s so immature and childish. I don’t like Ji Hoo because he’s too emo. Seriously, it was so frickin lame and cheesy every time they put in a scene of him playing violin in all white suit while flower petals flutters in the background. wtf right??
My favorite is the pottery guy whose name I can’t recollect. I love how he cheers up a girl by taking her out shopping and bring her to salons for a makeover, that’s exactly what a good bff should do
The main girl is okay but I don’t understand why she’s so weak in front of other girls but she has no trouble standing up to guys. Whenever a group of girl bullies her, she just sit there and sulk. When a guy bullies her, she gives him the Chuck Norris roundhouse kick. wat? O_o
I don’t really like how when nothing interesting happens, the director puts her into trouble where a guy comes in and rescue her. Once or twice is okay, but after the billionth time, it gets kinda old.
I’m not done but it’s getting kind of boring. The fiance finally showed up and all the usual jazz and melodrama ensues. -yawn-
With that said, I’m still gonna finish it and I like the soundtrack very much

I didn’t intend to watch anything anime related this season or anytime soon, but I saw the preview list and I was liek omg asdfhoiheiohakl’jas wtf r u effffing me?
INUYASHA~~~~~~~ or rather…..
SESSHOMARRUUUU <33333
so happy. I love the series. It was among the first animes that I watched. Way back when I was a wee kid, my sis and I downloaded bits of each epiosde with our dial up internet from fansites. It was also the first ship war I ever participated in (I rooted for Kikyo, my sis rooted for Kagome; fiery debates ensued online and offline).
And there’s Winter Sonata. I don’t remember if I ever watched it or not but I know my entire family loved it. Will definitely check out the first episode.
The rest look uninteresting so screw it.
Fall watch list at the moment: Gossip Girl Season 3, Inuyasha, and maybe Winter Sonata.
I love you too Kim Jeong Hoon. So what if you’re 29 and practically old enough to be my inappropriate father.
His eyes are so pretty. His vocal is so nice. He may have played the loser prince in Princess Hours but he will always be #1 in my heart <3
Hope he survives military service
