Girl from Nowhere

 

"Girl from Nowhere" is a 16+ Thai TV Series that got its own spot on Netflix, with 2 seasons released as we speak. The series was made by the studio SOUR Bangkok, with the talented Thai actress Chicha "Kitty" Amatayakul playing the lead role as a girl named Nanno. The first season was out on GMM 25, a digital Thai TV channel, the 8th of August 2018. Its disturbing thriller elements and mystery anthology has made it incredibly popular, fans spreading all over the world like fireflies, with their own thoughts and theories on what happens... the fact that this story is based on true news reports from Thailand makes it even more disturbing.

What is Girl from Nowhere about?

Nanno is a 16-year-old high school girl who keeps transferring schools after being done with the previous one. That is not all though. You see, Nanno is not just an ordinary girl. She looks and acts like a completely normal human being, but she has the power to draw out the filthy evil from humans. Everbody has some sort of darkness in them, and that darkness is what Nanno wants to reveal to everyone. Nanno makes people reveal their true self, whether it is through persuasion, trickery or something else? We don't know how she does it, but she does it: A real bizarre mystery.

What exactly is Nanno?

This is the thing that I have seen people on the internet speculating about the most, by far. What is Nanno? Some people say Nanno is a demon or the Devil, some say she is a ghost. Kitty, Nanno's actress, made a comment in an interview that Nanno is not a ghost, but she is not really human either. She is like the daughter of Satan or the snake from the garden of Eden who comes to Earth to give the forbidde fruit to humans.

Will there be a Season 3?

It is very unsure at the moment, considering the 2nd season was released this spring, so there are no real information regarding a potential season 3. Fans are begging for more already though, so who knows?

Sounds interesting? If yes, head over to Netflix to watch the entire thing; I sure recommend it for all the thriller fans out there! But I must warn the audience, just like Netflix does at the beginning of each episode, this series is 16+ rated due to topics of murder, suicide, violence and sexual elements appearing in Girl from Nowhere. Only watch if you know you can handle it.

My general rating of Girl from Nowhere: 7/10!

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...
