Sorry guys. No updates for a while. There's something wrong with my own computer and well, obviously, I can't watch anime or read manga like that. -_- The computer I'm currently on is my younger sister's. *sigh*
Well, once I get back, I'll write another post.

BLEACH fillers
It seems BLEACH is heading back into fillers for a few episodes... so I'm not even going to bother reviewing it. Although so far, it seems like an interesting enough story. *Shrug*

Synopsis: Skip Beat
Since Chrysalis requested it, I'm writing a small synopsis that's in more detail than my previous one. This one is for you, Chrysalis!
I assume this is Vol 01's Cover. Although it looks
more like a magazine.
Mogami Kyoko is a plain ordinary girl who wishes nothing more than to be useful to her prince in shining armor Fuwa Shoutaro (Shou) whose dream was to become a rock star. Unfortunately, he's a cruel man and casts her aside once she's of no use to him, having realized his dreams and stole the number one spot on the Oricon Charts with his debut single. Shamed and angered, she swears vengeance upon him. The once kind, innocent, and pure Kyoko is no more. In place of her past self is one driven with determination and revenge.
There is one man in the show business that Fuwa Shoutaro hates more than anyone. That person is Tsuruga Ren, a very successful and popular actor. Kyoko in her haste to become climb up in the show business in hopes of beating Shou and making him regret throwing her aside, meets Ren who deeply disapproves of her reasoning for entering the show business. In fact, he starts hating her. However, she is determined to not let it phase her.
However, their relationship of hatred soon changes as certain memories are revealed and slowly but surely, they become friends. Still, memories from the past come back to haunt Ren. He refuses to take any further steps in pursuing Kyoko, determined to remain just friends and coworkers.
Kyoko on the other hand is also determined not to fall in love again. Her past experience with Shou has left a bad taste in her mouth when it concerns love. She refuses to be shaken by such an emotion, instead she hopes to make something of herself. Everything she has done in the past was for Shou. This time, she strives to do something for herself for once in hopes of creating a brand new Kyoko.

Naruto Shippuuden 16
Did that guy Zetsu EAT him? *stares at the last scene with morbid fascination* All these Akatsuki members are bonkers. Itachi seems the most sane out of them all, and that's not much comfort.
Anyhow, it seems Sakura finally knows some truth to the Jinchuuriki. It's very sad. Every time, the shots with Gaara having Shuukaku taken out of him show up, I feel grief well up inside me... Everything bad always happens to Gaara, like Naruto said and I can't help but agree. Why him? I know it's animated but this anime pulls at my heart strings. I can't even bear to to put up any images because I keep thinking of Gaara. -_- Naruto, please save him soon!
Back to the episode, it didn't have any action although that mechanical bird thing Chiyo-baa-sama summoned was kind of cute. Interesting jutsu. The entire episode was alright, but the no action kind of makes me frown. Naruto and Gai are both less than 100% now due to their jutsu. Kakashi is also a little scratched. Sakura hasn't done a thing so far. At least Chiyo-baa-sama sent a message.
Neji, Tenten, and Lee will probably have to take a rest soon too because Gai is out of commission for the time being. I must say I'm amazed at Neji and Tenten's growth. After all, Neji is the only one to attain the rank Jounin! Kyaaa~!! I'm a huge Neji fan girl. Rawr. I haven't seen Lee do much other than his normal Taijutsu but meh...
I've also been wondering something. If anyone can give me a plausible answer, I'll give you a cookie. ^-^
How can Lee stand on the water like he did in the previous episodes? Isn't he unable to use chakra?

Manga: Beauty Pop
I actually started reading this a few months ago and only now remembered to post about it. >>; Yes, sorry for being slow.
Category: Shoujo, School Life
The story's not exactly your classic Shoujo Manga. Or is it? I can't really tell. The main male character is a hot headed, fiery tempered guy who aims to be the top hair stylest in Japan. Oh, his name's Narumi (forgot his surname). Unfortunately, that spot's taken by one Koshiba Kiri's father. If you haven't guessed, Koshiba Kiri is the protagonist. She's a very unique protagonist to say the least. She's not exactly your ordinary clumsy school girl with no talents, or the one with all the talents and looks with a great mind. In fact, she's the type that has no motivation, is always sleepy, constantly yawning, and doesn't show any respect towards her senpai (this pisses Narumi off, not that he isn't always angry anyway). But secretly, she's a hairstyling genius. She just doesn't care, it seems.
Anyway, that about sums it up. The next time a new chapter comes out, I'll write a review for it.
Oh, and before I forget, here's a scan.
Here's the Manga Cover for Volume 01.
I'm currently up to Volume 05. By the way,
that's Koshiba Kiri.

BLEACH 126 + 127 & Naruto 14 +15 Reviews
BLEACH 126 + 127:
126: I knew Hinamori was going to be like this. The manga kind of spoiled it for me, but seeing it animated makes me kind of wish harm on Hinamori. She's so brainwashed. Argh. Another thing, I'm very glad Chad is finally getting stronger. Yay! Go Chad! He's an awesome character that's often shadowed by Ichigo's outrageous personality. This episode made me love Orihime more. She's climbing up my Favorite Characters List rather steadily. She's very amazing for a human. Her abilities if refined would be amazing.
127: Urahara totally pissed me off! The way he said it was just so ARGH! I understand that on the frontlines, Orihime would just get in the way without Tsubaki, but she could still be of aid in healing and shielding. Yes, the Arrancar know about her shielding abilities, but still! GRRR!!! Anyway, Hachi was very kind. I'm glad Orihime's cheered up a bit. Aizen though, is one creepy fuck.
Naruto 14 + 15: Since the episodes were basically focused on one thing, I won't go seperating everything. A lot of people found it took a long time, but I think it's a good thing for the battles to be so drawn out. After all, there were two battles taking place at the same time. Gai was admittedly very cool when he beat 'Kisame'. Naruto was one hell of a powerhouse. o.o; I mean, I knew he was ridiculously powerful what with his enormous chakra reserves but wow. I didn't even think he had it in him to attack 'Itachi'. I'm in the middle of downloading episode 16 right now. I'll make a new post later after I finish watching it.
Oh, and no pictures, sorry. I kind of delete Naruto episodes after I watch them and I forgot to take screenshots before deleting them. My younger sister stores all the Naruto episodes and I store all the BLEACH.

This scene was so funny.
