Hyadain has shown his identity?:O

For those who don't know Hyadain, he is an artist who makes covers of game-songs and other quite fun songs online. Of course, what makes him kind of interesting is that he does even the female parts of his songs himself, which is really impressing when you hear his songs. And of course the fact that people didn't know who he was or looked like always make things even more interesting, and he is kind of known/popular/whatever.
Some examples:
Mario

Romancing SaGa(I haven't played the game, but I like the song)






Apparantly he already revealed who he was last year, but now he posted a youtube-video because he's releasing a mega-single:D Good for him! So it's not untill now I see itXD
But here it is:

He still writes that he sings the female parts, he just has some idol in the video:P
..Something else would be creepyXD


Somehow, you'd think his nose was missing or something since he didn't show his face, but I guess not.


Actually, those who watch the One Piece anime may know him, because he made this:

At least he composed it, but I don't know if he's the one singing.

Alass the mystery is solved!
This may not be so interesting for most folks, but to me it kind of is:P


Well anyway, he's blog is here: http://ameblo.jp/hyadain/

Series recommendation: Mushishi

Rating: 5/6

This is a pondering anime series, filled with amazing art and great effects. We follow the mushi-shi named Ginko. A mushi-shi is kind of like a researcher of a form of life called mushi. We follow Ginko as he travel around chasing rumors of occurrences that could be tied to mushi. He hopes to understand their place in the world’s hierarchy of life, which could lead to the meaning of life itself. Mushi simply are. They are not good or evil, but can come in many forms, and cause quite some problems for humans. It’s a paranormal thing, kind of hard to explain, but to put it simply we see examples of them in this series. They also can't be seen by everyone.

The series is (mostly) episodically, which I usually don’t like because of lack of flow, but you can't really make it any other way with a series like this. In every episode we experience a new miracle, not always good, caused by mushi, like some kid growing horns. It’s presented in a very pondering way, with those mushi always lurking around, and it gains the fantastic and eerie feeling of a fairy-tale. A dark fairy-tale at least, as there’s certainly some sadness involved in some if not most of the stories.

The art is also really great, which is essential when creating a world of creatures in almost every possible shape. There’s light, there’s shapes and it’s really magnificent. The characters are well made as well, as far as I can tell.

It being a pondering-and-thinking-anime, you might think it’s a boring series with infinite talking. Well there is talking, as he always explains the phenomenon happening, but it’s not boring. In fact, this was among the first series I watched after beginning learning Japanese, meaning I didn’t understand what the heck he was talking about unless I checked afterwards, and I still found it interesting. Well you might say I'm hooked on supernatural stuff, so when it’s dragged into reality by the help of some life form, of course I’m thrilled. But then I guess I’m not really the only one.

The only downside by the anime, as I see it, must be it being episodically, which makes it less addicting and the story more shallow, and that’s why I’m not giving it a 6. But hey, maybe you like it that way.
Either way, if you are a ponderer, and into supernatural stuff, I reeeally recommend this series.

Music video: Do NOT watch past 1:37 if you, like me, have spoiler-allergy.

Series recommendation: Fairy tail

Rating: 3+/6
Summary: Lucy is a 17-year-old girl, who wants to be a full-fledged mage. One day when visiting Harujion Town, she meets Natsu, a young man who gets sick easily by any type of transportation. But Natsu isnt just any ordinary kid, he's a member of one of the world's most (in)famous mage guilds: Fairy Tail.

Recommendation:
I must admit, I don’t really watch a lot of anime series. I guess I prefer the movies, as the series rarely catch my attention. But this one kind of did. It is like many other shonen animes: girl meets boy who perform heroic deeds with crew. But it’s done quite entertaining. My problem is: I don’t know why. The fighting scenes are packed with “I’m gonna kick your ass now” moments, with matching music… but can’t you find that in other animes as well? One thing I do know, is that I love the cozy feel of it, and the way they use irish(?)-inspired music is AWESOME. It has humor, it has action, it has magic, it has dragons(kind of), so if you aare going to watch an anime series you might as well try this one.

But I’ve only watched 6 episodes though, so for all I know it might get horrible later on.
