I just want/need to share my joy...
Finally, after years of anxious waiting, we get our Captains back and on top of that in such a force!
I´ve just finished listening to CAST Album for the first time and I´m almost speechless...

It´s different, it´s new, exciting, unusual and lovely.
Even though it took me some time before I shook the feeling of ´is-that-really-KAT-TUN´ off, it´s clear to me now - THEY ARE BACK and I dare to say that in a better shape than ever
(since they started losing the members, I mean...).

I will give it like two, three more times and I bet I´ll be obsessed. XD
Though, I guess it will take more than that with ´Dirty, Sexy, NIght´, it reminds me of ´Kiss, Kiss, Kiss´ too much...
Solo songs are great too, even if it seems that Kame took some weird lyrics/music lessons from someone....

What about you? Did you have a change to hear all the songs yet?
What do you think about them? Do you have your favorite?
Mine is ´New Genesis´ for now
(and ´One Way Love´, of course, Kame), but I suppose it´ll change yet. ^^´

Jaa!

PS: FYI - I didn´t forget about RW, it has just come to the point - don´t do it, if you need to force it. Please, have patience with me. ^^v

Hisashiburi, minna-san! ^_^

My dear readers...

It has been a while, hasn´t it?
How did you enjoy Christmas holidays and New Year´s celebrations? I hope you all had funny, relaxing and lovely time.

I spent Christmas at my parents´ place and it was exactly what I had imagined it to be like - the best relaxation I could have (it was damn needed....). And my last day of the 2017 and the first one of the 2018 was more than nice, spent with my friends and my dearest sis. Followed by the best topping I could ever wished for...

I know WE ALL KNOW ALREADY, but since there is such a lovely opportunity, I cannot leave it unused, so...


\^_^/ KAT-TUN IS BACK \^_^/

I can imagine that my over-happy reaction at 5:00 AM, when I found out about this special Johnny´s Countdown surprise from Twitter, must have startled the neighbours, but what kind of Hyphen would have given a damn, right? The realization that our dear Captains are back on ship still brings a happy smile on my face.

And.... I know of no better way to celebrate their comeback than with my own ´coming back´.
So, I´d like to announce, with clear conscience (I was not sure a few days ago) that my little hiatus is over now. Since the first chapter of RW III. is in a great progress, I can honestly say: Hell, yes, I´m back in this story. No regrets. XD

Not today, not tomorrow, but soon, very soon, I promise, you can expect the continuation of my western-AKame (bloody) love story.

Looking forward to meet you all again in comments!

Kon´nichiwa!

In these days, I´m working on getting a few postponed things in order, so I´ve decided to make a little overview of the websites, which I used for publication of Red West, out of LJ
(and its backup on Dreamwidth) and LJ akame_community.

In case that by any chance, you spot my fanfiction anywhere else, it means that somebody steals my credits for it. Please, let me know then.
(I wouldn´t have mentioned this if it hadn´t happened to me before...)

Thank you in advance and have a nice day. ^_^v

The list of websites with RW story... )

Dear RW readers, either commenting or silent ones...

2 years and 4 months... 45 chapters... That long took me to finish the second part of Red West. I haven´t realized it has been so long, until I checked the posting date of the 1st chapter. When I had started with RW, I wouldn´t have even imagined that it would get stuck with me for so long...

RW II. Banner.jpg
It wasn´t easy to reach this point of the story. It was not only about Jin and Kame anymore, even though those two remained the main characters. Since I included many additional personas, even historical ones and I didn´t put them there to be just in the background, there was a lot more to write and I had to think about it carefully. And even though all of this stole me for a lot of free time, it was fun, it was emotional and I´m going to miss it as hell. But hopefully, not for long... I already have some ideas for continuation on my mind and I´ll be happy to share them with you, when the right time comes.

AKame community on LJ had grown somewhat quiet during past few years and it´s not surprising, I get it. People change, grow up and move on. It´s a natural development, but it still makes me feel sad and so nostalgic about the times, when it was much livelier here, because AkaKame still mean so much to me....

So, this is actually my plea towards all of you – and I mean really ALL of you, who found the time to read my story. If there is anything you´d like to comment, to recommend, to wish for, to complain about, you have a chance now. Let me know what you liked, what you disliked, which character you´d like to see more, what you laughed about the most, what you cried about, what pissed you off. Any opinion or advice will be highly appreciated.

I´m not that type of an author, who would stop writing just because of the lack of reactions, but each and every comment can be that greatest kick, which keeps me from giving up. It´s very important for me to know that YOU are out there waiting for a new chapter. And I can promise you there IS something to wait for. Even though RW II. turned out to be quite long, there are still many things to tell and many... ehm, perverted ideas of mine to use on Akame. XD

But for now – I need a break. No matter how much I enjoy writing this story, there were parts really difficult to create and it feels like I´ve used up all of my specific plans and energy. I´m officially entering the hiatus from writing with uknown termination...
Well, and now I´m on the same boat with our dear Captains, right? XD

And finally, my huge THANK YOU belongs to everyone, who ever commented on any of the chapters, but most of all, to my dear sister, who is with me in this since the very beginning and also to Atago-kun, whose beta-reading makes the whole RW much more attractive.

Thank you all for being here with me.


Kamenashi-san, Akanishi-san,
Thank you for making my life happier.
亀梨さん、赤西さん、
私の人生をより幸せにするためにありがとうございました。

Well... It has been some time, so... Kon´nichiwa, mina-san! ^_^/

I didn´t want to make a post about a certain-idiotic-former-Johnny´s-member-letting-himself-be-caught-with-drugs-in-Japan (come on, in JAPAN, Koki, are you really an idiot?), because that made me so pissed I actually yelled at my notebook (and I´m sorry for that, really), but I definitely want to make THIS post.

Some very happy news arrived from Japan today!
Jin Akanishi and Meisa Kuroki are a four-member-family now!
Who wouldn´t like to see JinJin Junior? XD

Omedettou, Jin!!

I´ve been happy about all those solo activities Kame, Uepi and Maru had. - It´s great they´re so active despite being on hiatus!
I´ve been excited to see Kame and Pi reunion. - Oh, nice, this brings so many memories...
And... I´m scared shitless about Kame´s solo tour announcement... - WTH?!

Johnny´s Net - Kamenashi Concert Tour 2017

I´m sorry if I´m too grouchy and pesimistic now. I´d love to attend his solo live (OF COURSE, DAMN IT, I´D HAVE BEEN IN HEAVEN), but I can´t help but wonder what this might mean for KAT-TUN´s future... T_T
*being traumatized by certain KAT-TUN solo activities in the past*

What are your thoughts, dear fellow Hyphens?
Please, share them with me if you like; I desperately NEED to be calmed down.

*bow*

No one can steal our precious memories. So, we should not let them get spoiled by anyone.
KAT-TUN welcome
Happy KAT-TUN Day to all Hyphens!
witchann2: (Kame 2)
To the only famous personality whom I admire, respect, love and adore at the same time,
to our precious “Turtle” Kamenashi Kazuya – Happy Birthday!!
His smile improves my mood.
His words give me strength.
His acting makes me laugh and cry.
His singing touches my heart.

And all those feelings do not falter with the passing time, they just get stronger...

Thank you, Kame, for just being YOU.

<3

Konbanwa, mina-san! ^^/

It has been a long time since I started to write this post (it was in August, I think…). It somehow stuck in my computer only half-prepared and I just wasn´t able to finish it (from many many reasons). But finally! I could do it, and I´m proud of myself.   ^^´

Spin-chan ( [livejournal.com profile] spinelie), who now belongs to my ´thanks-LJ-for-letting-me-know-about-these-Hyphens´ Friends, was at the beginning of this idea, as she made this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFIta22AhOs) lovely video about her KAT-TUN Top 10…
I was thinking about doing something like this when the Anniversary Album was released and I´ve found out that Hyphens chose some songs, which I would not include into the Best OF (as Bounce Girl, or Shunkanshuuto) myself. It made me wonder if I´m able to do some selection at all. Because at first, when I tried to think about my favorite songs, I realized there would be at least Top 30 chart from them. I thought that I´m just not able to do it, because… you know… I love all their songs. XD
But following Spin-chan´s example, I decided to be harsh on myself and chose "really" only ten. Though, I cheated a little in the end…
I couldn´t do only one chart, so there are TWO of them. The first one includes only 6-nin songs and the second chart is for 5- and 4-nin songs.

I love KAT-TUN music in general and many of their songs are really… special for me, even though I do not consider them to be especially great as comes to music or lyrics, so I wasn´t able to choose a proper order for them. Therefore, they´re aligned according to the date of release or the sequence at the album. So, it doesn´t mean that REAL FACE mentioned as the first is my favorite. XD
Also, I´d like to mention that NO solos and NO special compilations (as Kizuna, Butterfly or Monster Night) are considered in those charts. I´d have to make a third one for those. XD

Let me know what your favorite KAT-TUN songs are, if you like, or make a chart on your own. It was not easy (IT WAS HELL TO PICK SO FEW, DAMN IT), but it was really a fun to do it. And it´s a good reminder of everything what our dear Captains accomplished so far.

Keep waiting for their comeback, kimitachi! ^^/


KAT-TUN Top 10... No less than two of them! )
Desperate note: And now tell me where the hell should I include Bokura no Machi de? And why TWILIGHT, BLACK, CRAZY LOVE, WHITE X-MAS or BIRTH couldn´t squeeze in there somewhere?!
Ok, I rather shut up already... XD

Kasumi


PS: Working also at RW II. Coming soon! ^^v

This is something what I simply MUST share.
It´s totally crazy music video of that kind which you either love or hate, and I was crying with laughter while watching it.
And that ending literally killed me off. XD

So, here you go with Jin´s and Takayuki´s "Fool´s Day Joke"...
I´m going to collect myself now. :´D

Edit: Btw, even Jin himself tagged this as #JapaneseStupidPop and #LetsRegret (I´d also add #jinlogic and #bakanishineverdies :D :D).Those two do not take this seriously at all, they´re just having fun, so I suppose we shoud do the same. :D
