Touka Gettan OST

It has Momoka on the cover :)

But don't be confused that this is the music from the anime--it isn't! BOAS will be looking forward to the anime OST as well. Doesn't that music between Touka and Yumiko sound a bit cheeky?

Kami-chama Karin OP Single Ankoku Tengoku

The opening single for Kami-chama Karin titled Ankoku Tengoku is new from ALI PROJECT. It's got a jazz rhythm that's pretty interesting.

China's Sola

This picture from the Associated Press found on the BBC world news page shows Chinese workers dressed in Army fatigues holding out umbrellas for the Chinese Congress. ARE THOSE THE UMBRELLAS FROM SOLA?

I don't know what to title this?

So it's basically some pictures about Chinese performance artists living in a glass box day and night somewhere in Beijing. AND NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT!

This Season With BOAS

Everything has been terribly busy but BOAS still wants to share some picks for this anime season:

1. Touka Gettan
2. Claymore
3. Lucky Star
4. Shining Tears X Wind
5. Seto no Hanayome
6. Kiss Dum Engage Planet
7. Sola
8. Murder Princess

Namida Ichirin

That's the title of the insert song for Seto no Hanayome--it's very enka. There needs to be way more enka in popular entertainment and anime; that's just BOAS' opinion. Here are the lyrics:

涙―輪

夜桜 背に舞い落ちる
どこへ行く道か
親がくれた命ひとつ
うまく抱いてもやれず

泣いてどうなるものでしょうか
ふと見上げた空の彼方

仁義あらば 花となろう
義理に咲いた あだ花
涙 散る花

情は 岸辺も知らず
流れゆく川か
舟をつなぐ綱のもろさ
東も西も遠く

訊いてどうなるものでしょうか
ただうつつの旅の行方

仁義あらば 風も吹こう
義理に咲いた あだ花
涙 散る花
