sefi’s Neighborhood

I have decided to forego flailing about "Maou" and been rewatching "The Lord of the Rings" on television for the last three Saturdays. Oh! How I miss it. I remembered how much I was into it (and harry potter too) that I even cosplayed as a Nazgûl (it was damn hot walking around all covered in a black cloak). I have lost count how many times I watched the movies inclusive of the extended editions. The book took me some time to get into because the first part was rather lengthy. But by the end, I wanted to name my firstborn "Faramir" (as opposed to being second) and even my very nickname "Dúnadan" (pronounced as "dune-a-done") came from it. Then Arashi came and everything else took a backseat except for the name that I have associated with myself. Just something that reminded me when I was watching.

EYE OF SAURON

It is another fiery eye!

EYE OF MAOU

I also realised how much I like the soundtrack especially Gollum's Song and The Steward of Gondor.

The Steward Of Gondor

Billy Boyd

Home is behind
The world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow
To the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall fade

PS: I can do a mean impersonation of Gollum *gollum* *gollum* my preciousss... XD

hah~ i'm too disappointed to even put up caps. ><

I was all pumped up and very optimistic that they'd win today because they were ahead in "rolling coin tower" which, i believe, is their waterloo. Arashi obviously has an advantage because kana-chan was too short, she could hardly reach the whole stack. XDD

Sho got a low score in Catching Bridge because he was too scared of the height and of being hit. But ohmiya did a splendid job in hitting their oponent's err, jewels. XDDD

Demo what the hell happened in Falling Pipe? They used to lord over this!

Jun was quite lenient with the guy during Falling Pipe deshou? (demo i must admit he was glowing in this episode.^^)

and nino! nino, nino, nino.

Dear hamburger hands was confident he's gonna score 200pts. but got only 30. ><

Did the boys got too tired, they didn't even have enough energy to pull the last game off?

*starts watching last week's VS to appease self*

How are you celebrating the 4th of July?

I watched Maou. And wore red.

Yes, I know they're talking about Independence Day 4th of July. But I'm not American now, am I?

Yup, I watched it last night. After a bit of angst and tricks on the part of TVU. According to KH, there were more than 250 ppl who were viewing TBS when it started. That's gotta be a good sign.

Anyway, there's now a Ma-oh drinking game. I made it up last night, and "improved" it just then, out of boredom in honour of the great job Riida and Toma are doing. XD. You'll need a lot of alcohol. The rules are basically, drink every time Toma runs or pouts. If ther are 2 people involved, the other will drink every time Oh-chan is in the darkroom. If there's a third, then that person drinks whenever a tarot card appears or that psychic girl uses her powers. So yes, I was quite drunk last night, testing this one out (mind, I was only drinking whenever Toma ran/pouted). I blame it on the crappy cleanskin. It was disgusting. Or maybe I just get drunk easily... But yes. People, drinking is fun if it's in moderation. Please give feedback on how well the drinking game works. If you're still sober enough to do so. xD

So yes, I'm now waiting for subs. Which should be out within the next hour or two. Then it's out and away to lunch then bus. Let's hope yygall won't lose her way in the maze that is the city.

But man! Maou!Ohno was hot. And Toma pouts too much. Can't wait til next week!

How was Ohno san's Maou-like cold look ?

Iya~, Everyone who watches will be knocked out. (Laugh) by My Maou. (then embarrassed Ohno touched Ninomiya's butt)
Why are you touching my butt now? (Laugh)
Everyone, you rarely seen image of Ohno san's stern look before, so you'll be thrilled.

Ohno san, Have you got used to, playing the part of Maou?

I guess so. I'm not a type can put power on eye.....
I think it's not about the type.(Laugh)
When power put on eyes, concentration is used. I'm getting used to it.

Ninomiya san, today you were in and up for shooting.(Laugh)

I told them I come anytime when they called.
Besides there are also still 3 members, so please.
You should appear all the time. Let's do same scene over again.
(Laugh) Even if we do, the story won't connect. It'll be like a rerun. (Laugh)
"It's him again" like that. (Laugh)
(Laugh) Besides me, there are, Aiba kun, Matsumoto kun and Sakurai kun. Not only me, but everyone could appear.
I want everyone to appear.

By the way , Ohno san do you feel "darkness" like this role in yourself?

Tell them! This is good chance. Please tell them a dark side in Ohno san, yourself.
A dark side.......Maa, I won't say I don't have it at all, a dark side will appear gradually while doing this drama.
So you don't have it, right. (Laugh)
Basically , I have less then other people.
It won't be interesting if it's played by someone who has it (darkness). I think it will be fascinating to watch someone who doesn't have it (darkness)

Ninomiya san do you know about Ohno san's dark side?

Iya~, he was really dark when he was young.(Laugh)  Never thought there is someone this rebelled.(Laugh)
If Ohno san at that time played the character "Maou", everyone wouldn't not be surprised.

(Burst out laughing) How about now?
He becomes mellower. (Laugh) (To Ohno) you were rebelled?
I was not.
You were.
Really I was?
See, rebelled people won't realized it. (Laugh)
I see.

Then, Please give a message!

When NINO appears in this way, I'm relieved.
I think the site is gradually became a good atmosphere.
I also want to act intensively rapidly and to become a good "Maou", No (Laugh) I mean, become a bad "Maou"

How about you, Ninomiya san?

What? Me? (Laugh)
I appear in only 1 episode, when I say conversely, I've appeared in 1 episode so far, so maybe I'll be in episode 2 and episode 3.....Oh, I am thinking about whether I'll be a regular while expecting it in the development that I was a "Maou" when you realized.(Laugh)
The story is very serious, but I think that the setting of human relations is a work worked out very well. I hope you will be able to see it while enjoying yourself.

Happy Birthday to my niban in Johnny's! (Or is that sanban since I'm totally obsessed with KimuTaku these days...)

Jin looks sooo sexy in this picture. I think it's my favourite picture of him! I can't remember who made this wallpaper so I can't credit it, gomen (the filename etc. was not changed though)!

It's very fitting, isn't it? Jin was born on an American holiday (Independence Day), lol. I'm not American but I never forget July 4... 面白いなぁ。
