It’s been a long time since my last actual entry.
I’ve been doing a lot of gaming, and out of the ones I’d already listed, it’s been nothing but Kichiku Megane, Sweet Pool, and Starry Sky ~in Autumn~ and ~in Winter~. I have no idea where, but somewhere along the line I got into ero-otome games.
I guess you could chalk that up to me following a certain seiyuu’s works through thick and thin, good and bad. As a result, I got into ero-otome games (which, ironically enough, aren’t so bad). There are two that I decided to check out: Ijiwaru My Master and Kuro to Kin no Akanai Kagi. The former is about the heroine finding herself in the demon world after receiving a necklace, and the latter is about a heroine (who is a hikikomori) who–after getting her hair trimmed by a mysterious barber–finds herself back in the outside world again. I may be glossing over the actual plots of both, but would you rather hear a glossed-over version, or a very-detailed version that includes just how screwed up the characters are?
Anyway, the artwork for Kuro to Kin was done by YURA, the same group that did the artwork for Lucky Dog 1 , so it was no wonder why the art and colors looked so similar. Here is the opening for Kuro to Kin (NSFW):

Other than that, I have been busy compiling names of mangaka and seiyuu on my LiveJournal for the past few weeks since the earthquake in Japan on 3/11. If you know of anyone that has been accounted for that isn’t on the list, please comment on the entry with the name(s). Even now I am still updating the list. The most I can do at this point is to help out others who are just as worried. So let’s all hope for the best, and that everyone is safe!
