Ooku

I recently bought Ooku: The inner chambers volume 1. I kinda love it. It's about an alternative Edo-era where the male population of Japan is scarce, and the society becomes matriarchal. Traditional male jobs are taken by women, including shogun. Within the shogun's castle, thousands of men toil behind the scenes, serving not only as administrators, but as a harem. When a new shogun takes over 80 years after the first infected boy dies, the monetary wastefulness of the ooku is shed in an effort to "rerelease" these highly desired men back into the general population. At volume's end, the shogun is determined to learn how the epidemic came to pass and the subsequent elevation of women in Japan.

Ooku is being developed into a live action film, due in September. It will star Kazunari Ninomiya <3
In fact, I have a promo of the movie!

Looks interesting, right?

Speaking of interesting, I have also been playing Hotel Dusk. I know it's old, but old games are just the right price for me now. (>_<")

If you have any game recommendations, shoot me a comment!

Hachiko

I have watched the Richard Gere version of Hachiko.

For those of you who don't know, it's based on a true story:


Hachiko, an Akita dog in Japan, sets an example for loyalty by waiting patiently for its master’s return from work in a railway station. It did this routine for 11 years every day.
The Akita breed dog, Hachikō was born or November 10, 1923 and died March 8, 1935. It is known in Japanese as 忠犬 ハチ公 (chūken hachikō, lit. 'faithful dog Hachikō'). It is remembered fondly in Japan for its intense loyalty.

In 1924, Hachiko was brought to Tokyo by its master Hidesamuro Ueno, a professor in the agricultural department at the University of Tokyo. When Hachiko’s master went to work, it greeted him off at the front door, and when his master came back from work he usually went to the nearest railway station and waited for him there. It used to do this as a routine every day. However, his master died a year later in May 1925, but Hachiko kept this routine and waited for its master at the station for the next 11 years until its death in 1935.

So naturally, I bawled like a baby. Especially when Hachi and the Professor were getting acquainted.

So cute! My favorite scene was when Hachi was surrounded by dancers. The movie has some beautiful shots, and the story is incredibly moving.
However, now that I have seen this version directed by Lasse Hallström, I want to watch the original.

If you know where I can find it, please leave me a comment! <3

The last movie I watched in theatres was Clash of the Titans. Even though I defended it, thinking about it now, it was an okay movie. There were no real memorable scenes, and the acting was super cheesy. I probably got defensive because of my bff. Haha. She completely hated it, and she was vocal about it. Ah, to be fair, she totally loved Hot Tub Time Machine. She can surprise me sometimes~
What have you watched lately?

( ^_^)／ Been reading manga again. Even though it's in a print medium, for some reason my heart beats a little faster at the cool parts, haha. (*≧▽≦)

Pictured: Super exciting The Wall Flower~

Speaking of manga, I have also finished reading a series. It made me a little sad that it ended. Ah, such feelings are probably not going to be over yet.
I guess it can't be helped really. But I just wanted to share, haha.
