New Pokemon Diamond & Pearl opening “Saikou Everyday!”

Posted in Images, Videos, & Mp3s, Pokemon at 7:06 pm by Yumeka

After 61 episodes, we finally have a new Pokemon opening that just aired with the latest episode, 158. And I wouldn’t make a post about it if it wasn’t one of the best Pokemon openings to come out in recent years – a catchy rock song and awesome images that showcase all the current star pokemon, important characters, as well as almost all the legendary pokemon. Although I prefer Rica Matsumoto’s singing, Fumie Akiyoshi has been steadily growing on me.

For the next Diamond & Pearl opening after this one, I believe a new remix of “Mezase Pokemon Master” is long overdue.

Interpreting the ending of Darker than Black 2

Posted in Anime Reviews, Essays and Ramblings at 2:17 pm by Yumeka

So ends the anticipated second season of Darker than Black, at 12 episodes. The series was really good, though it wasn’t what I had initially thought it would be (early promotional art/summaries made it seem like Hei and Yin would be the main protagonists). And like the first season, I’m having some trouble figuring out the ending…
