Love is Like a Cocktail

Love is Like a Cocktail, or Osake wa Fufu ni Natte kara in Japanese, is a short manga series with 11 volumes written and illustrated by Crystal na Yosuke. The first manga volume was announced 2015, so as you can guess, it is a finished series, but I've been dying to watch the anime as soon as I heard they made an anime adaption of the webmanga in 2017! Even though it is labelled as a Romance, I would call it more of a kind of Comedy-Slice of Life.

"Quiet but capable, Mizusawa Chisoto is a beautiful leader at work who has a secret at home that only her husband, Sora, knows about: She loves to drink alcohol, and when she does, she becomes extremely adorable! What bliss will Sora's cocktail bring tonight? "Yoidere", the drunken comedy cocktail about Japan's most lovey-dovey couple."

I must say that I love this anime! I was fine with it being short and every episodes only 3 minutes long; it has its own charm and there is no need to drag out things that way, which I like. I am not a drinker, yet I enjoyed this anime so much. Well, drinker or not, I think anyone would enjoy this anime, to be honest! Chi-chan is such a character (along with Sora), even though there's not much story involved at all. And what's even funnier... you get to learn about a new cocktail each episode! They display and explain the drink, how it is made and what ingredients to use. Very educational, haha.

My overall rating of the anime Love is Like a Cocktail: 8,5/10!

80's J-Pop: Miki Matsubara

Album cover for Miki Matsubara's "Stay With Me". Miki Matsubara , or Suzie Matsubara [as she also went by], was a composer, lyricist and singer from Japan. She was known for her 80's J-Pop love songs, but really became famous after her debut single, " Stay With Me ", was released in November 1979. I'm sure many of you have heard this song, and I'm a fan of this talented woman myself, thus I decided to write about her. Early Life Miki Matsubara was born 28th of November 1959 in Osaka ( Kishiwada ), Japan. She grew up with a father, mother and younger sister in Hiraoka Town . Miki quickly became familiar with jazz music, as her mother was a jazz singer. She started playing piano at an outstandingly young age of 3 and simply embraced music in general, not only jazz but also rock. She went to ordinary schools her whole childhood and was praised as being a great and hardworking student who would enroll into university, but Miki had already dreams of beco...

Bongcheon Dong Ghost

Bongcheon-Dong Ghost is a short, South Korean horror webtoon (a type of digital comic) created by Horang August 23rd 2011. In July 2011, artist Horang published the short webtoon " Ok-su Station Ghost " on Naver Webtoon (a webtoon portal). This webtoon included 3D-like effects, including in a scene in which a ghost´s hand appears to jump out of the screen as if to grab the viewer. Horang followed this webcomic up with "Bongcheon-Dong Ghost" later that month. An English fan translation and video dub were created in August, as the webcomic quickly went viral internationally. Some people also recorded themselves reading the story and putting it up on YouTube for people to see their reactions. If you are too scared to read the story on your own, I recommend searching up PewDiePie's video of reading Bongcheon Dong Ghost. SPOILER. Set in Bongcheon-dong, Seoul, the webcomic shows a student walking home from school late at night meeting a female ghost who wa...

Corpse Party & Sachiko Shinozaki

Before starting with the Character of the Week, I would like to give background because I absolutely LOVE Corpse Party. It is so unique and, when I discovered it, unlike anything I had seen before! So, what is it? Corpse Party (in Japanese, コープスパーティー Kōpusu Pātī ) is a series of several things; Video games, anime OVA, manga works, drama CDs and live action films. I cannot go over every part of CP, that would be way too long of a blog post so I´ll be mostly talking about the games. This is the history & what it says on the official Fandom Wiki: "On April 22nd 1996, an adventure game called CORPSE-PARTY was published in the Spring 1996 edition of LOGIN Sofcom No.6 . It was made by a 22-year-old college student by the name of Makoto Kedouin , who typically stylizes his surname as Kedwin. On February 26th 1997, Kedwin won the grand prize in the Second Annual ASCII ENTERTAINMENT competition, netting him 5 million yen. It´d be nine years before the world saw Corpse Part...
