Seriously Random

* “Hyourin Shiki”, “Purple moon demon”*

But… Are we keeping away the purple moon demon? Or are we calling it home? I’d personally call it home (owo)n

**At Setsubun, it’s tradition to throw beans to keep last year’s bad spirits away and call fortune for the new year/spring. Also, sardine’s head with holly leaves are used as a talisman. It’s also said you can only eat as many beans (they’re sweet and crunchy) as years of your age.

After this sentence popped up, I rushed for the others Setsubun sentence since it was almost midnight in Japan:

Koi: Uah! Uah! What’s it, Arata?! Don’t suddenly throw beans at me!

Haru: Why do we throw beans at Setsubun? It’s said that it’s because the word “bean” (”mame”) leads to “erase the devil” (”akuma wo kessuru”). And that’s all for Setsubun’s Harupedia!

Arata: (I couldn’t find a Setsubun’s sentence… I just assume it’s because of Hosoyan?)

Aoi: Setsubun huh… Was just the sardine’s head decorating with the holly leaves? Then can I use the rest of the fish (as ingredients)?

Rui: Demon outside! Fortune inside! … Wouldn’t the demon be hurt when hit by the beans? Poor demon…

Kai: Demon outside! Fortune inside! … These beans are quite tasty, once started eating it’s hard to stop!

You: Demon outside! Fortune inside! …Uh? It’s not that, Shiroda! I’m not bullying Yoru!

Yoru: Demon outside! Fortune inside! …Uh? What’s wrong, Shiroda, that you’re looking scared at You?

Iku: Demoon outside! Fortunee inside! … I feel a bit bad for the demon. Then what about saying “Demon come friendly inside too”?

Shun: Eating the number of beans the age you are… It’s ok to use the age of the body, right? If I use the soul’s age it’s a bit… I wouldn’t end. 

Kakeru: Demoon outside! Fortunee inside! … Really Fortune!  Come please! COM’ON!! 

In addition to the announcement that TsukiAni. will be releasing DVD and Blu-ray versions of the anime, the DVD/BD information page at the official TsukiAni. website has revealed the titles of the ending themes (a total of 12 songs so far, one for each character.) There’s quite a long post ahead!

A new promotional video! A video where we can all finally hear what “GRAVITIC-LOVE” sounds like, and a beautiful showcase of both animation styles used for the anime! (And it’s making me very emotional right now! In other words, watch it and scream.)
