Mildly entertaining.

Oh my, the CLAMP fans had a doozy thrown at them. Amused that there are those who are denying it, saying 'I knew it' or just angry. After reading about the horrendous happenings over in Europe, what chapitre 189 of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle hints at is somewhat distasteful. Oh well, at least CLAMP's writing is subtle enough that it is not blatantly wtf perverted. *Misses the old AU-gotta-catch-em-all story*

Speaking of inbreeding...*ugh*

Vampire Knight 5! Huh, looks like Fay's older hotter brother joins the cast as a vampire hunter. Wish Yuuki wasn't portrayed as such a weakling and so ignorant. Anyway, Yuuki and Zero get invited to a vampire orgy. Sis says their tongues look like hot dogs....ew.

It's only Wednesday?

Osen 1! jdrama. Thought I was done sampling asian dramas, but hey, this has pretty food and pretty clothes. This show celebrates traditional Japanese food and culture in modern times.

The characters ~ Handa Sen/Osen: the young okami who loves her alcohol; Ezaki Yoshio: young, genki boy who wants to become a chef....there are other characters, but they really don't matter.



Quick summary ~ Yoshio/Yocchan quits his flashy chef job to become a chef of 'slow food' at Osen's restaurant. In the first episode, the slowness of their preparation frustrates him until he sees Osen take on the 'queen' of microwaved foods.

Quick opinion ~ The negative ->Other than Osen, the other characters are a little too cliched. Yocchan is probably the worst of them, and he's not that cute. The positive->The food and culture look very attractive..darn, another show that makes me hungry. Osen has a cute personality that is fueled by sake and naivete. And the opening visuals were the kind of colorful flashiness that I like. Still, I'm not sure if I'd continue to watch this despite the entertaining food preparation. If this show focuses on the culture and food, it would be great, but if it steers towards kitchen drama, then in the garbage it goes.

And...
Who Are You? 5-6! Young-In tries to make it on her own even after nice guy offers her a place to stay. Seung-Hyo tries to come to grips with the fact that there is something mentally wrong with him. Il Gun still doesn't make his time in Seoung-Hyo's body worth it. Yeah, these two episodes laid down a thick blanket of sap, angst and snooze.
