Yankee Candle

Halo amigos ~

I have been waiting to get my candles for quite some time. Since the last I visited and most of the candles were out of stock. And the shipment would arrive only in mid April. Even as of today, most of the candles are already reserved for customers. Wow, I didn't know it was that popular.

I always been a fan of candles. You know the whole romantic atmosphere.. It's just perfect. There are a few yankee candle outlets in Singapore. I visited the one at Parkway today.

The next time I visit the store, I'm gonna get the clean cotton. I love the musky type of fragrance. I wanna try the other colored candles just because it is just so pretty. And fyi, midsummers night in the 2 wig tumblr is freaking all reserved!!!!!

School's tomorrow! The weekend sure passes by really quickly huh!

Adios amigos ~ Got to get ready for yet another torturous week :>

I survived!!!

Wow. I survived the first week of school. You won't know how tiring it is to be studying. It feels worth than exercising. And you wouldn't understand unless you really pay attention and do your best in school.

I hate it when people say, "it's just studying? Mine is far worst off." Their cases are probably work, exercising or gym. But really, you won't understand the pains of really "schooling". So, please just understand and be supportive okay.

You know, something has been bothering lately. My friend has been ignoring all my texts. I know he reads all of them but seriously? It would help if I know why he is ignoring my texts. It seemed like he just vanished, disappeared! Please just let me know what's going on uh. I know national service is tough but if you can read the texts, I believe you can reply too. I am worried about you mister.

Okay tata, Jiayin is coming over in a bit. Adios amigos ~

Just an update

Hi there,

Today is yet another tedious school day for yours truly. Started at 8am and I was having a lot of difficulty getting to sleep. There are so many projects this semester. It hasn't even started and I am already complaining. In poly, everybody in their third year would have a final year project. And isn't that enough to tire us out? Yet we have so many projects in year 1 and 2. Tsk!

First lesson of German today! Wow, I didn't know German was so tough. I had a tough time pronouncing the words and there is a oral test. I hope I can pass!! I don't want to fail it. We learnt the ABCS and our teacher had us choose a German first name. I chose SIGRID.

Our school had their annual club crawl event where all CCAs set up booths to recruit the freshmen. Since me and my friends have yet to join a CCA, we went around the sports hall checking out the booths. It was crazy! So many students and all the club members were so enthusiastic.

The weather here in Singapore is really getting from bad to worse. It's so warm. Even if it rains, the heat will be back in no time.

I'm updating from my phone again fyi. =)

I'll end it off here. I miss my old class :( BF1301

M.A.C Cosmetics SALE in NYP

Halo amigos! There was a sale today in Nanyang Polytechnic between 10am - 5pm! If you are in NYP, you should have known. I checked out the sale at around 11.40am with my good friend, Naseha! Holy cow!! Some products are already sold out. We should have probably gone earlier but our lessons start at 12pm and getting enough beauty sleep is very very important.

It's crazy, all the items are about 50% off. It's like a M.A.C heaven. But everything is so cheap and I was tempted to get everything. Lipsticks were sold at $15 and the limited edition Riri ones were sold at $20. Blushes were $15? Sadly, the pretty coral colour one was sold out. Nail polishes at $15 as well.

I could have gotten everything but I don't really need everything. Maybe I should have gotten the set that came with a blush, eyeliner and whatever. But we were tight on time.

In the end, I got the RiRi lipstick in the shade nude and a prolong wear blush in the shade blush all day. The products that were brought him were kind of limited, not what is usually sold at a M.A.C store. If they had frankly scarlet, pink swoon and fluer power, I would have spent more.

The current blushes I have are the Melba and gingerly. Both very popular blushes. This blush has a slight shimmer to it? Actually, more than slightly. I am not a fan of shimmer but this colour ain't that bad.

Here is the packaging of the Riri lipstick. The packaging is really cute and it's in the shape of the standard M.A.C lipstick.

The shade is like a dark brown. It's a matte finish and it's really pretty. Sadly, they only had it in this shade and the orangey one? If they had our lip colours that would have been great.

After school ended, we sort of rushed back to check out what they had left. I thought I could get the gift set thing that I mention earlier. It came along with it's own custom made pouch/bag! But, sold out! Damn!! I wished the sale would have been 2 days long? And they definitely need to bring in more products. =)

Tata ~ I am quite exhausted from school.

P.S I am updating my blog through my iPhone. Apologies for the non-formatted post.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder Review

Happy Easter Amigos!

Halo amigos ~ Today I am here to do a review about the Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder! There has been lots of raves about this product on YouTube, Blogs and basically everywhere. Unfortunately, Rimmel is no longer available in Singapore. It was, but not anymore. I emailed both Watsons and Guardian to verify this.

So, after hearing how it reduces shine and how easy it is to apply; I just had to get it. It isn't expensive since its a drugstore brand. I bought it from ASOS if you are wondering. I bought two shades because I wasn't sure what shade I was in. I bought silky beige and warm beige pressed powder. It was on promotion then so it was way much cheaper than the original price. Since it is directly imported, it took some time for the product to arrive in Singapore.

Both shades seem to blend well with my skin tone. I was surprised, so I did not have to give one product away. I could use both. I have yet to try the transparent one though. This product does reduce shine to a certain extent! Due to Singapore's humid weather, I do tend to be oily. So, it does live up to my expectations but it is always good to touch your powder up when you can. If you are outdoor, you have to touch your powder up more often. The downside of this product would be the fact that it doesn't come with a mirror or a puff? So, what I do is I bring my very own retractable kabuki brush.

Coverage wise, it does a decent job. I do tend to pat on quite a bit. If you are using a liquid foundation, do not use the brush and whirl your powder on. Using patting/stippling motions to apply your powder. This will ensure that all your hard work doesn't get smeared.

Conclusion of the day, if you are looking for a cheap product that does a decent job; give this a try =) I did hear that maybelline dream matte powder was it; does a good job. So, I might give it a try.

Amigos, if you have any primers to recommend; please comment below and let me know. Thank you ^^

Adios amigos ~ School is starting tomorrow

Movie review: The other woman (2014)

Blockbuster is coming! So be prepared to watch some awesome movies. =)

I caught this movie on good friday. Oh my, the crowd in Singapore on a Public Holiday is crazy. Where did all these people come from? Good luck to those working in cinemas and restaurants.

Starring Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Kate upton; The other woman is basically the classic tale of a husband cheating on his wife. But the twist is that the wife and the mistresses becomes best friends or friends at least. And they worked together to get back at him.

This movie is full of comedy and romance. although some parts I did manage to predict what was coming but it's a really good enjoyable show. Rated PG13; there is some sexual references and jokes in the movie but nothing too serious.

Plus I wonder why the husband can get all the women? He doesn't look that hot or good looking. Oh well?

And if you didn't know, Nicki minaj is starring in this movie as well. It is kind of funny that every time she appears on screen, she has a different hairstyle (color blah blah). Totally her la. =)

I will definitely recommend this movie if you love comedy and romance. Great movie! :)

Have you ever?

Have you ever begged your parents to get you something you really want and get shot down time after time?

I've been asking for a dog like forever. They have such high expectations on getting a dog but they don't want to spend a single cent? Great.

Adoptions for a dog is something so simple and when I show them the picture they all shoot the idea down. Even my own sister?

Well, my sister is a whole new diff case. It has to be a dog that is appealing to get and then she'll agree. What about her pets? Always shooting down my idea of getting a dog. Thanks man!

I've got a real supportive family. One thing's for sure, you all are never really there for me. I want a dog for companionship. Nobody understands the need for that, I just want someone that can be there for me.

Have you ever felt like your home doesn't feel like a home at all? Or maybe I'm just lonely but really nobody gets me.

Second visit to Nik's Maple Clinic (North branch)

Halo amigos ~

It's been 3 weeks since I last visited the clinic. My acne has became a little better. Although I am still breaking out due to the Stieva A but it's suppose to get rid of the impurities by forcing breakouts.

Arriving there, I was shocked to see that there were no patients waiting to see the doctor in the waiting room. Just the other day, it was packed. I strongly believed it was because of Doctor Ong. Once I registered, I could see the doctor once the receptionist gave me the "go ahead".

The doctor I saw today was Doctor Louis Loo. I apologise if I got the spelling wrong. He is much more informative as compared to doctor Sim. Really friendly guy and he smiles a lot. Thumbs up! He uses a torch light to look at your skin, I mean he looks at my skin!! Unlike Doctor Sim who just took quick glances. He recommended some other products for my skin.

I asked for 2 months supply of medication because school is starting and I do not want to travel down to Yishun. So, next appointment would be in June. The two new medication is some form of acid to control the oil and a drying lotion for big and newly formed pimples.

As you can see from the picture above, the cleanser is a much bigger bottle and I received two tubs of the Stieva A. This time, I was prescribed 0.025. It is much stronger than the previous 0.01. I finished my the first Stieva A like in less than 3 weeks? I do hope two tubs will last me till June =)

The receptionist didn't have really good English but I didn't mind. She was really friendly and helpful. Talk about good customer service. I asked for a piece of paper to write down the steps and she offered to write it all down for me. Plus point there! Thumbs up*

The total damage this time was $174.30. It's higher than my previous visit but it's probably due to the fact that I asked for 2 months worth of medication. One suggestion for them though, please do something about the payment options. NETS and cash shouldn't be the only options.

Overall, I would say my second visit was much better experience than the first =) I really hope my acne will clear out.

Adios amigos ~

Anime Review: Nagi No Asukara

Halo amigos! Yes, another anime review. There are many upcoming anime series and also new ones that just released. And all of them seems so good, especially the art. Like I said before, I am the type that can't watch an anime if the art is not up to my expectations. So if there are new anime series, the old series has to be completed what right? HAHAHA SORRY I AM TALKING TO MUCH.

This anime is set in a world where there are two races of humans, those who live on land and those who live in the ocean. The people beneath the waves live in houses like ours with streets too. Instead of birds, they have fishes swimming around.

The visuals aren't the only thing that makes this anime so captivating. It includes the tale of the sea god and his life blah blah. This anime has 26 episodes.

The first half of this anime shows the five children attempting to cope with their emotions as they try to bridge the gap between their two cultures by performing a ritual that the adults have no interest in because of the prejudice on both sides. At the same time, the scale of the sea god (uroko sama) has announced that the end of the world is coming and the only way to save the sea people is for them to go into hibernation. In this way, the can preserve their race for the future. (Declining birth rate you know)

During the ritual, there was an accident leading one of the children; Manaka to take the place of the sacrifice. After this tragic incident, time stopped for the people who lived in the sea. Five years has passed, the children woke up from their hibernation one by one. As they got to know of what happened, everything and everyone around them changed drastically; their friends becoming adults etc.. Of course, Hikari did what he can to find Manaka; his beloved. I shall not continue talking about the story, so you should watch it.

Nagi No Asukara is a slice of life type of anime. It has romance, school life and most of the genres that are considered popular these days. If there is one thing that's needed to enjoy this series, its patience. Nagi No Asukara left with teary eyed. It's a very emotional type of anime.

The romance bit of Nagi No Asukara is kinda like a huge plate of friend noodles. Hikari likes Manaka, Chisaki likes Hikari and Kaname likes Chisaki. Miuna likes Hikari and Sayu likes kaname. Tsumugu likes Chisaki. In the end, Hikari and Manaka's love was mutual and so was Tsumugu and Chisaki. But still?!

The ending in particular, despite how happy it seemed, it left me craving for more. There is no big moment where the two main characters share an embrace or a kiss. And I'm pretty sure that was what the viewers were expecting.

The music and art didn't lag behind either. It was consistent and definitely fitting for the series. Sometimes the music was the one that got me. You know how it goes, sad songs just simply amplifies your emotions.

I'll definitely recommend this anime. =)

Anime review: Mahou sensou

Halo amigos! I am here with yet another anime review. But just for your info, I don't just watch anime. There is a lot of American dramas that I do watch but they are not a completed series. So I don't do reviews on them.

Takeshi Nanase is an ordinary high school boy with a somewhat dark past and, while he seems really hard working, he actually really cared about what people think of him. Due to certain circumstances, he is dating his childhood friend Kurumi Isoshima, but they are in a "fake" relationship. His life is relatively normal until the day he comes across a girl collapsed on the school campus.

The girl, in a uniform he has never seen before, is named Mui Aiba and she claims to be a magician. Mui then apologizes to Takeshi because she turned him into a magician, too, and what Takeshi once thought was just one world is actually two — the world where magicians live and the world where humans live.

First impression of this anime, "yay! Magic style anime! Woo." That's what I thought, literally. This anime is twelve episodes long.

Spoiler alert, the last episode will leave you confused and freaking pissed. There is no ending. It's like a whole new story? There should be a season two to continue where the last episode left out. Furthermore, I don't know if there is even gonna be a season two and if there is, it's gonna take forever to produce. So major cliff hanger alert.

There are a lot of comments by fellow viewers that the main reason for watching this anime is because the characters remind them of another character? For eg, Aiba mui looks like Shana?

The art of the anime seems a little weird. Sometimes it looks good and sometimes in some scenes it looks distorted. So consistency definitely isn't there!

If I have to choose a favourite character, it will definitely be Ida-kun and the director of the school (forgot her name). Ida has the fire magic ability thing going on while the director has this black magic compass thing. Her powers are pretty cool I would say.

So, execution and story line was a major failure. The beginning and all was good. But the ending sucks, big time! It's the ending that spoils the entire anime for me.

I would definitely not recommend this anime if you hate shows with no endings. But for one shot purposes, you might wanna try it. If I were to rewind the clock, I would definitely not have watched it.

Anime review: Tokyo Ravens

This awesome anime takes place in a world full of magic and there are schools that teach you how to control and further improve your magic abilities. The main character in the story is Harutora, a young man born for an important role. In the beginning he couldn't see any of the spirits etc, and as a result became Natsume's familiar.

The super power type of anime are usually one of my favorites. E.g. Fairy tale and Mahou Sensou. This anime has a very good story line, the fighting scenes and music are top class. Every character has its own unique magic style and influence in this show. There will be twists in this anime that you would have never expected.

Episode themes vary between comedy, romance, school life, magic, fantasy. It is a really interesting anime that you should definitely not miss. The art of this anime is really good too. I find most of the male characters good looking even the female characters as well.

Natsume's dying was something that I didn't see coming. The story is definitely well executed. Some plot lines are a little confusing but it will make sense in the end.

Ultimately, I wished there was more episodes towards this anime. Okay, but I was a little disappointed in the ending. I felt that it really cut short. They did kiss in the end. (Harutora and Natsume) Harutora revived Natsume but they ending parting ways. I was kinda disappointed. He recovered his memories as well. You know what I mean, when you watch this anime.

I JUST LOVE THIS ANIME. WATCH IT!!!!!

Shopping with my best friend

Halo amigos! I was out today with my best friend, Jiayin. Well, let me start by introducing my dear friend. I have known her ever since I was in Secondary one. She has been there for me through thick and thin. She always someone that has my best interests at heart. Been through with me through heart breaks, hardships, and stressful times. Our friendship wasn't smooth riding at first, we had our share of arguments. I'm glad that we are passed that and are now so much closer than ever before. Anyone who bullies her or take advantage of her, you better watch your back. Because I'll always have her back. <3

So, school is starting. I wanted to get a few tops in preparation of my new term. I'm gonna be in a different class which I am really upset about actually. Fortunately for me, I have two of my close friends with me in that class. But the rest of our class actually knows each other as they were in the same class last semester. So, I hope we wouldn't be the odd ball in class and everything will go smoothly. It's getting real warm here in Singapore, so time for summer clothings!! (Pfft, it's always summer in Singapore)

My first M.A.C Lipstick ever. I asked the sales assistant for a nude shade lipstick and she recommended this one. It's in the shade jubilee and it's a lustre. I think it's 27 or 29 dollars? It's a little more creamy than usual ones. My lips are kinda chapped and dry. So I might consider getting the lip conditioner from them? Anyway, I love M.A.C products. Once my foundation is all gone, I might wanna get the Matchmaster? I want a full coverage foundation. The studio fix pressed powder seems really good too.

I bought some clothes as well too. But I was too lazy to take pictures of them. I got them from H&M, Forever 21 and a shop starting with M. HAHAHA I forgot what's the shop named called. Oh well? Any places of shopping interest you can recommend me? Comment below. =)

These are awesome. I got them from Takashimaya. On my right, its the petit doughnut in the flavour strawberry milk. It's really good. There is a promotion right now, buy 30 petit doughnuts at $12. My sister and I really love them. And on my left, is the strawberry mochi. Okay these are really good and high in demand. The last time I was there, the lady in front of me bought them all. I had to wait 5 minutes for the next batch, but I was in a hurry. This time, I bought 300 grams. The girl behind me was scolding me behind my back about how much I bought. I didn't hear it though, if I did; I would have said something to her. Well, Jiayin told me about it. SO WHAT IF I BOUGHT 300 GRAMS OF IT? THEY ARE STILL MAKING MORE WHAT! Since my sister wanted it too, I went back later and bought another 300 grams of it. It's 100 grams for $3 if i am not wrong. Takashimaya has a number of delicious food especially the noodles. Check it out if you have the time!

Saw this crazy big hair doughnut at H&M. It's bigger than my fist. It's humongous? I mean who has such thick hair? really.. Haha So i had to snap a picture of this.

That's all for today!

City square Malaysia (Johor Bahru)

Halo amigos ~

I don't usually post entries when I have nothing to say or talk about. So if I don't post, you'll know what's up.

Recently, I've been to city square in Malaysia not the city square here in Singapore. All of them were day trips. Since it's really close to the check point, you don't really need to book a hotel or anything like that unless you want to.

What's good about the place? Probably the good there? Shopping wise, not really my style. Initially I wanted to get contact lenses there. It's pretty cheap at "eyesmate" but apparently for me I have high astig level so I have to order my lenses. And I don't want that. Why? Because I do not want to have to come back that's all.

Okay, if you are wondering how to get to city square in Malaysia. It's pretty easy.

First, take bus 950 at woodlands bus interchange (berth 14). It will drop you off at Singapore's check point. Once you get your passport processed etc, take buses 950/170/160 to the Malaysian check point. Same thing over there, passport blah blah. After that, just walk to city square. It's super super near.

Adios amigos ~ I'll post again real soon.

Movie Review: Noah

The film Noah is the number one rated box office movie. It's rated NC16, if you are wondering what the ratings are. So no children under the age of 16 are allowed. It is a non-religious movie that was inspired by the tale of how Noah was called upon God to build the Ark in preparation for the flood, the plot as such requires no further introduction. (taken from the net)

This film is not a strict version of what some people believe is taken from the biblical tale. There was a lot of disagreements and unhappiness. Reviews were bad because many feel offended as the portrayal of god as a evil vengeful you know what I mean. But wows keep coming as the film is given an authentic feeling action-packed scenes often with violent frenetic and romantic moments. I would say the movie is quite thrilling and the animations was good. Sound effects as well of course.

Being a catholic myself, obviously I know what is the story that I've been taught. But I am not gonna hate and bash this movie. I'm open to it instead. It is a movie and you need to know that in movies not everything is what it is suppose to be. Personally, I felt this movie was a good one putting aside the religious aspects of the movie.

The cast did a great job. The movie has enough emotional scenes that got me all sad and teary eyed. This movie is about the struggle for personal identity, hope, love and survival. This masterpiece creates a new reality that allows viewers to suspend disbelief, and for a few hours to believe in this movie.

I give this movie, 4/5. Bring your friends and family. If you all expect a good entertainment box office movie, watch it. Hearing all the bad reviews, I was kinda dishearten but in the end I really enjoyed the movie. Do remember to keep an open mind okay!

Fairy tail returns!!!

I am so happy. Fairytail is back! The first episode just got aired. Haha catch episode one now.

If I'm not wrong, they didn't stop. They took a break as they needed to concentrate on the manga. And also there was a scandal involving the voice actor of lucy? Well, I don't have the facts but these are all internet news.

I am just so glad that it is back. Fairytail is one of my favourite anime. I love Fairytail. Haha while watching the first episode, I don't know if it's me or my beloved sting-kun looks a little different than before? He isn't as good looking anymore? :(

The opening made it seemed like Lucy and Natsu are together. Let's wait and see if there will be sparks between the two of them.

The first episode also continued where the last season ended. So you will not miss any parts etc.

Adios amigos ~ do catch fairytail alright =)

Dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner (Deep Black) Review

Halo amigos ~ Today I decided to do a review on this particular eyeliner. I had nothing to do today, and I thought of doing an eyeliner review for you guys.

Figure 1: The dolly Wink Liquid Eyeliner in the new packaging

I have heard many raves about this liquid eyeliner and decided to give it a try. I've been trying to find the one in the old packaging but I could not find in it any of Singapore's drug stores. I guess this is the new packaging huh? The old packing had polka dots and a little ribbon. Look at the picture below to have a closer look at the old packing.

Figure 2: The Old Packaging

Figure 3: A close up on the new packaging

The new packaging has purple flower like designs. They kind of remind me of daisies? Maybe they are daisies huh. Yeah but I think the old packaging was a little cuter. I am a little disappointed that I couldn't find this eyeliner in its old packaging but the only difference between the new and old one is just the packaging. So fear not, all the pros of this eyeliner are still around. Although, it is said to have slight improvements. I can't really comment on that since I did not try the eyeliner in the old packaging though.

Figure 4: A close up of the eyeliner pen

I love how the pen is designed, it's like a felt tip eyeliner pen. The tip allows you to begin with a very thin line and you can build it up if you like a thicker eyeliner look. It is so smooth and easy to apply. Before using the product on the first time, remember to shake the product a little.

Figure 5: Swatches

Figure 6: After splashing water and rubbing it for about 5 seconds

I am surprised that even with water the liner did not budge or smudge. It is really good. Right now, I am a big fan of this eyeliner. It comes in two colors, brown and deep black. The eyeliner dries super quickly avoiding smudges. I made a mistake while drawing my eyeliner, I rubbed it off with the tip of my index finger. It came off perfectly and didn't leave any residue.

It lasts all day without flaking. Overall, it is an awesome eyeliner. I might consider getting one in brown but I'll just wait out to finish the current one that I have. The only complaint about this product is probably how costly it is. I bought it from Watson's at a retail price of $24.90. But the product is definitely worth its price. Thumbs up for this product. =)

Update: 17may

After a long day, and my eyeliner is still perrrtfect baby!

Adios amigos ~

Anime Review: Strike the Blood

Strike the blood is an awesome fantasy anime revolving around a school boy that has been turned into a Vampire in a place where the supernatural live in harmony with human beings. It's filled with action, romance and a little Ecchi. According to wiki, Ecchi is an often used Japanese slang term in the Japanese language for lewd or lascivious conduct. You know, a little boob grabbing, pantie showing and so on ... I love action filled movies with romance. To me that's what makes the best kind of movie/anime/drama. So watching the first few episodes of this anime, it already seems like an awesome and interesting movie.

This anime has unfortunately only 24 episodes. I am not sure if they are gonna have a second two, but we have to wait and see right?

The story takes place in Itogami City, a man-made island in the coast of Japan. It's a home of various races of demons, and people are okay with that.

This anime revolves around the main character Akatsuki Kojou who has became a vampire but not just any Vampire. He is like THE vampire (Fourth Prpgenitor). And he being one of the strongest progenitor, the Lion King organisation has its concerns. So in order to monitor Kojou, they sent Himeragi to be his observer. But on their first encounter, Kojou was not what Himeragi thought he would be. Whoever the voice actor of Kojou is, he has a really sexy and deep voice.

What Kojou can do is summon beautiful and powerful familiars. Sadly, he has no idea what's going on and how to be a progenitor. He is a nice guy, and does not drink human blood. Hence, he isn't considered an honorable vampire, so his familiars will not acknowledge him as their master until he has consumed human blood. And damn, he does have a lot of girls chasing him.

My favorite characters are Kojou of course. Whoever the voice actor is, please call me. i love your voice. Like I said earlier, he is a nice guy. He does what's right and he is quite reliable to be honest.

Back to who are my fav characters:

Asagi - she is a computer genius. She has awesome magical hacking powers. Honest, fights for what she believes in. And she totally digs Kojou. Although, Himeragi always interferes in their relationship
Sayaka - i love how the character looks like. Perfect Samurai-sh and fighter chic look. I mean she does appear jealous all the time. But it's obvious she likes Kojou. She acts strong but deep down she is just a girl man. So lay off!
Ardeal- I'm not sure if I got his name right? But, he is another good looking character. An all high and mighty type of guy. He is abit psychotic in a way but he is cool. But he does give off the impression that he is gay in this anime though. He is one rich vampire though.

Yaze is quite good looking too. But he doesn't make much appearance on set. You know like in the action scenes, so he didn't really leave a impression on me.

There is one particular character I hate so much. Really hate! Guess who? It's himeragi. I just hate how she clings onto Kojou. Like give him some space. She gets jealous when he gets close to other girls and she gets all irritating by saying that he needs to be more intensely observed. She keeps calling him a pervert and saying that he does irresponsible things when she isn't around. Please it's not like he is cheating on you, you're not even dating. AND EVERY SINGLE TIME WHEN THEY ARE FIGHTING TOGETHER!! Kojou says "This is my fight!" And she'll say, "No, senpai. It's our fight!" To me, she is just one irritating character. Maybe it's just me, but I really don't like this character. If they just threw away that clingy and annoying trait, I think it would be great. But still I'm sorry. D:

I'm glad that the director did capture the main point of creating an anime involving vampires. When you involve vampires, you need to show their blood lust and how they cope with it. A little biting and sucking of blood is what you need to do. Thank god, this anime didn't disappoint me in that area.

The art is really good. The characters all look so good. The animation is superb. From how the individual characters looks like to the familiars and the backgrounds. Good job!

Therefore, I would definitely recommend you to watch this anime if you're into vampires and the supernatural thing; demons and what not. And also, if you are simply in love with beautiful art. :)

Adios amigos ~
