Its one of those random little things...

So there I was, having the makings of a really bad day, when I decided I was crazy and depressed enough to go poke around the internet for one of those deranged anime series and...

I swear man, nothing could EVER prepare me for this:


Yes, nothing like a half-animated Miki with psychedelic hair.

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH<3



Well, the damned thing is that the anime apparently takes shots of the voice actors and mixes it with hand-drawn animation - the first few episodes had me wondering, "Who the hell am I looking at, and why does he look so familiar?" before Miki's episode came on and I had a huge WHAT, I KNOW THIS MAN, I GET HILARIOUSLY WACKY DREAMS ABOUT HIM. And only then did it occur to me that I had been staring at people like Morikawa and Sakurai for the past episodes.


Holy shit, hand-drawn sweat.


BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH. Thankfully, it's only in still, close-up shots when they show him AS Miki. The rest of the time, he's actually drawn, because that would've complicated a couple of possibly homoerotic nude scenes.

This shit is awesome. Thank you, insane animators and whoever else was on drugs, my day is made.

Where do I submit my request to get Miyano Mamoru animated?

I don't remember seeing him on the cast list, you'll have to do with Sakurai and these oldtimers (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=10953). *pats*

Ok, there's Okiayu, Paku Romi, Morikawa, Namikawa, Hirata, Sakurai and Konishi. This anime is certified awesome *___*

It's also bugfuck insane. Remember, these are the same people on Mononoke and Ayakashi(Bakeneko). So make sure you hold on to your sanity first.

It's not like we were ever some kind of sane to begin with .. too bad I can only download anything in a few weeks. Both home and office internet are horrible with downloads.

No need to hurry, this anime barely made a blip on most peoples' radars. Just put it on your queue of "Things to watch while drunk and/or high" - it makes better sense that way. It has its heartwarming moments, though.

Yea, hardly anyone mentions it. Have you done any search on YT?

o_o

He looks like the main from nougami neuro!

That would be Koyasu, but thankfully, he's not in this anime or I would've destroyed my monitor with a sledgehammer if he showed up like this. (Also, I ship Koyasu/Miki - the only RPS I'll ever indulge in)

I'm not quite sure how I feel about this. XD

Clearly you do not understand the awesome that is Miki Shin'ichirou: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=659

It would be partially his fault why I am immune to Joo's pretty boys.

O_____________O

but that hair. PINK AND YELLOW? you've got to be kidding me. but oddly... it looks... OK? XD

[identity profile] giethe.livejournal.com 2010-08-04 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
Some people mentioned that Miki himself may have had his real hair dyed the same way during this time period. I've seen him with half a blond, curly mohawk last year, so really, this isn't a surprise?

I do not apply rational logic when it comes to Miki, you see. It never works.

OMG where did you find this and how do I watch it too??? Thats hilarious.

[identity profile] giethe.livejournal.com 2010-08-04 11:32 am (UTC)(link)
It's a 'hybrid' anime series called Kuchuu Buranko, or alternatively, Trapeze. I'm sure it's been fansubbed by gg or some other group. You can check out the earlier comments for other info about it.

Miki makes a lot of things automatically hilarious. :D

XDDDDD

My inner seiyuu fan was greatly pleased.

Holy cheese on crackers, that's *awesome*.

[identity profile] giethe.livejournal.com 2010-08-04 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)
With an all-star cast too. :D It's great fun!

excuse me, seiyuutard coming through.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I screamed at Paku Romi's name. Also, Pooh bear Okiayu will be animated? ahahahaaaaaa.... I'm just bthanking the heavens Koyasu isn't here. Although my sister might be happy about that.

This list is epic. I'll find downloads of this title, somehow. The seiyuu fan in me will not be happy if I don't.

[identity profile] giethe.livejournal.com 2010-08-05 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
:D

It's certainly worth any seiyuu fan's time. Too bad, Paku Romi doesn't get to show up onscreen - she voices half, erm, 1/3 the main character (no, it doesn't make sense even in context). Okiayu does, though - I just watched his episode, and it was a very, very good episode (heartwarming too).

I'm also thankful that Koyasu isn't here because I might've killed something cute and furry at the mere sight of him.

How would you feel if I tell you Sakurai spends HIS entire episode with an erection?

[identity profile] hyper-airis.livejournal.com 2010-08-08 09:23 am (UTC)(link)
Okiayu + heartwarming. hmmm...

OH DEAR GOD SAKURAI PFFFT. *A*
