Lamento -BEYOND THE VOID- Review

Even if the world killed you, I would not forget you

In celebration of Lamento's localization announcement, here's my review on the game! ヽ(｡ゝω・｡)ﾉ It's been a few years since I played this game, so please forgive me if I'm spotty on some details.

Long ago, a union between the cat-like goddess Ribika and the god Two Canes led to the creation of the land of Sisa and the species known as Ribika. Currently, a recent epidemic known as the Sickness has spread throughout Sisa, killing off a large portion of the female population and causing fevers and missing limbs in others. At the same time, a food shortage is caused by a phenomenon known as the Void, since vegetation rejects any cat that touches it. This can lead to death if severe enough, and this is why many have turned to cannibalism as a last resort. Throughout the lands there are also special cats known as Sanga that power fighter Touga cats through the power of song. 

The protagonist Konoe (CV: Hatano Kazutoshi) is an orphan living in the starving village of Karou. He begins to have nightmares, and strange marks appearing on his body leads him to believe he's the cursed cat legends speak of. Konoe decides to flee Karou in hopes of finding a way to dispel the curse. Throughout his journey he discovers his abilities, teams up with unique individuals, and discovers his own past.

As usual, many spoilers below. Skip to "Final Thoughts" if you want to be spoiler free.

Bakumatsu Rock Anime??

Wow I must've been living under a rock or something, because I had no idea this became an anime. Suddenly Bakumatsu Rock began flooding my Tumblr dash and I was pretty confused as to why. Plus yknow, animated graphics further added to my confusion. XDD

For those who don't know what Bakumatsu Rock is, it's basically about Shinsengumi men during the Bakumatsu period who want to use their rock 'n' roll music to save people from the brainwashing of the Shogunate LMAO.

As for the anime, it began airing yesterday (July 2) and will air 12 episodes, ending September 17.

But more importantly, HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN THIS MAIN CAST???? AHHHHHH!!

Hijikata Toshizou → Morikawa Toshiyuki
Katsura Kogorou → Morikubo Showtaro
Okita Souji → Ono Kensho
Sakamato Ryouma → Taniyama Kishou
Takasugi Shinsaku →  Suzuki Tatsuhisa

THREE SEIYUUS I'M FALLING FOR RIGHT THERE AHAHAHAHA.

Shinsengumi Mokuhiroku Wasurenagusa Vol.6 Yamazaki Susumu Review

I always see fans of Wasurenagusa, and it made me feel a little lonely that I didn't know what all the rave was about. :\ Shinsengumi stories are always fun, so I've decidedly to very lately jump onto the Wasurenagusa Bandwagon. \^o^/ Yamazaki seems to be a favorite, so I'll start with him. Even though he's the last volume; lovely logic Tsuki-chan.
