PoT 113 and other such stuff

I just watched 113th episode of Prince of Tennis! It just boggles my mind that there are so many episodes in this anime but it's so freaking cool! I never would have thought that back when I was trying it out last summer that I would end up buying all the episodes up to 75 and then downloading all the other episodes as they were released. It's amazing!

Well, I watched it. I'm very very happy. I saw Atobe-sama!!! It's been so long since I last watched him and seeing him again confirmed my thoughts. I definitely am in love with him! He's so cool! I mean he's an arrogant peacock but he's still sooo coool! I love his voice too! I'm listening to his album now and I have this strange urge to listen to some of the Tenipuri on the Radio clips that feature him (there are like a ton). Man, if I wasn't downloading Ultra Maniac (on Streamload no less) I would so be getting the newest epi. of PoT. Anime-Otakus is so nice for releasing so many episodes at a time... This is like the seventh or eighth or even ninth in rapid succession. It's very cool. I just hope it's because A-O is snubbing LAST and not because PoT is going to end this month (rumors, rumors!) or that it's being licensed (oh God, please no!!!). This is me crossing her fingers and hoping to death.

Speaking of licensing I have some somewhat bad news... It seems as though VIZ has decided to license W-Juliet! :( This is me majorly sad here. W-Juliet is like one of my all time favs!!! And if they license it soon, I might have to wait like another year or so for them to get to the point that I'm at and I just can't wait!! Omanga released chapter 2 of volume 6 and it's a bloody cliffhanger!!! I wanna know what happens next! From what I heard (from Diana) is that it's on a list of things that VIZ is going to license so it might be a bit and then again it might be in the next week. KYAH!!! I don't want it to happen! I love W-Juliet too much! *sniffs* I wanna see if the two of them will end up in a happily ever after sort of bliss!

(Sidenote: Because I'm as impatient as hell, I'm trying to find some sort of synapsis of PoT 114 since I can't enjoy it today -- Kent'll probably get it and then I'll see it tomorrow, YAY! -- so I'm at Becky's LJ to try and find it since she usually has everyone of them up. I've looked and looked and now I'm going back to see if I just missed it since I probably did. Hopefully I'll find it... Going back in! I WILL FIND IT! Damn... I guess I won't... *cries* I'm such a lazy bum.)

Ack! What else was I going to talk about? Spring Break is here. YES! As much as I would love to spend it doing nothing, I think I might actually be doing stuff. I don't have any schoolwork (THANK GODS!) but there's other stuff... Like my internship...and working...and scholarships...and probably some driving... I'm not happy thank you very much. This is going to be hell. But I'll cheer myself up with some rented movies (there's more money down the drain), Naruto epis (Diana's got 'em) and probably some more PoT. And if I ever get Kimeru's song Oath of the Storm, I'll be very very very happy. That's it for me I guess. I'm going off to read fanfics and to find out about the PoT universe. I wanna know about Atobe-sama!!!

KYAH!!!

OMG!!! ATOBE IS SO FUCKING COOL!!! He's... KYAH!!! I just can't get over it!!! I want him! I want him so badly! He's soooooooooo coooooool!!! KYAH!!!

Remember how I said I was going to find out info on the PoT universe! Found some on Hyotei so there might be more on this later! Atobe just happened to be the first one. He's very cool! His b-day is Oct. 4 (which I sorta kinda but not really knew). He's 175 cm -- very tall! I whipped out the trusty, handy-dandy Master Converter and found out it's like 5" 8'. Not bad. He's a good height for me.

He's like 62 kg which is very heavy! Man, I'm suprised at you Atobe-sama! You're fat! 136 lbs? Man. I guess it might be right for him since he's so tall...

What really surprising? He likes fly-fishing. *blinks* Oh-kay. Never would have thought that of him. Hey, he can go and whisk Tezuka off to good ol' wilderness and they can fish and climb mountains together.

What else is surprising? He lives with his grandparents and parents. Wow. The Japanese is totally into that family thing I guess cuz doesn't Tezuka too? Hey, ya see? Another similiarity!

What totally gets me? Reading's one of his hobbies! I so want him! He's just so great! And he's fucking rich.

Last thing (or not), he's good at school. You kinda figure that's so but hey... ATOBE!!! You're rich, determined, smart as hell... And hell of a tennis player too! National level! Goddamnit! WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU REAL??? I so would want you!

Here's the real last thing. He's into determined, unyielding people. Hmm...Tezuka anyone? And since Atobe can speak German (and Greek of all things...) he can go to Germany to snuzzle up to Tezuka (which I've read in fanfics before so it's workable).

I'm going back! I wanna read Jiroh's!!! And Mukahi's! And Shishido's! And Choutarou! LOL! I wanna read everybody! I'm even kinda curious about Kabaji surprisingly enough. If I find anything great, I will post.

By the way, all this info is found right here: Hyotei Info. Ja!

Notable Info on Hyotei Regulars

Okay, here are the tidbits of info that made Sherry go KYAH!!!

Oshitari Yuushi:

His favorite color is greenish-brown. Greenish brown. That's a color??? Wha? Naturalistic or fatigues? Who knows... And his daddy's a doc! Cool! His hobby is fanboying over romantic movies? WTF?! He's so gay. But he likes girls with pretty legs so maybe he's a perverted bi?

Mukahi Gakuto:

One thing that's really really really odd. He's into collecting feather-related accessories. Why the hell are all these people fucking gay??? Not that it's bad thing, not at all. Personally I do see Gakuto and Yuushi together... They're like Oishi and Kikumaru -- partners on and off the court.

Shishido Ryou:

He's into boyish girls? LOL!!! Another gay in my mind. Yeah! He's totally cool with Choutarou!

JIROH!!!

I never knew I had so much in common with him! His dad owns a self-run laundry service!!! And HE LOVES MANGA!!!! I wish I could get with him but he likes cheerful and fun girls... I'm cheerful...sometimes...and fun...sometimes... *lowers head*

And there's a nice tidbit on his sleeping. Apparently he's totally into mutton/lamb and that has carnitine, "which is an amino acid that increases fat metabolism; the text claims that a side effect of this component is to induce sleep." Oh. Maybe he shoudl lay off on the sheep then.

Munehiro Kabaji:

He's into bottle ships! And he's good at: phyics, arts and craft and...home ec? What?! Okay... Apparently not only is he brilliant but he's also aristocratic and European. Wow. Wow. WOW. It's said he'll be a great lawyer or doctor someday. WOW.

Ohtori Choutarou:

He can play the piano and violin!!! Major KYAH moment there!!! And he's into faifthful and serious girls. Hey, I can so totally do that! Gladly if he'll play for me... *sigh*

Hiyoshi Wakashi:

What did I get from his profile? He's a bastard not worth commenting. And he's whack! I don't like him.

Wow. This is surprising. I changed the playlist and it's still Atobe. Wow.

Tezuka and Fuji and a little of RL news

There's going to be a ton of these... I have a good many (like five) more links to go and I'm only on the second one... Maybe I'll get tired of regurgiating (don't quote me on the spelling) it on my LJ. I'm just spamming it anyway and it's not like I'm totally busy... I am kinda sorta reading a SasuNaru fic (LOVE THIS PAIRING) and it's really good. The problem is this is funner (is that even a word) and it's only two chappies long. Anyway, about Tezuka and Fuji, easily two of my fav. characters in PoT.

Tezuka does have a grandfather living with them. And guess what?! He's totally into fishing!!! They -- as in him and Atobe! -- could so go off together!!! YES!!! Connection!

And it seems like Tezuka is also very nontechnical. He only has a radio cassette player. No comment. But his house has a koi pond!!! Kakoii!

Fuji isn't that cool... He does love classical music and is into photography (I now know where that whacked out fanfic came from) and not only that but he has Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince in his bag!!! That's soooo cool! Don't ya think?

What the hell is with all the Atobe songs??? This is on random...and yet I'm getting all the songs off of Atobe's CD which I've just finished listening too!!! I'm switching it after this.

Fuck

Damn it. I know what I did wrong... I didn't change the playlists. I'm so stupid... Now I've got it right.

And I forgot about my RL news. On Thursday my 89 year old grandmother entered the hospital. She had weak lungs and apparently she was in a bad place. So she entered the hospital at 5 PM and by 12 AM, she had gotten so bad that they had to transfer into Critical Care and placed on a ventilator. She wasn't awake at all and she was in a pretty dangerous place.... I was so shocked... I thought this might be it. But thankfully she's okay now. She was taken off the ventilator today and she's awake and conscious. I visited her today and was there when she was moved out of the CCU. Thank god she's okay and will be okay. *sighs of relief*

Wow! or in other words, Rankings are great!

I thought this link would be a dead end since it was really kinda stupid but it turned out that there are some really great stuff here. Rankings specially.

Anyway here's some tidbits that I found were interesting. We'll get to rankings later.

Kisarazu Ryou on Rokkaku is apparently Kisarazu Atushi of Rudolph's older twin brother. I got to admit. I had no idea who they were. But, I later there was some stuff on Rudolph that mentioned Atushi's red ribbon. I remember him! He's cute! He's the guy who partners up with the dane-guy who got killed by Momo. LOL.

Jirou (cause I love him!!!) sleeps at 10 pm and wakes at 7 am. That's 9 hours! Not bad! I don't even get that much... And he likes POCKY!!! Great!

I'm feeling kinda disappointed in this post. Apparently Jirou's name is spelled: J-I-R-O-U and I've always spelled with with and "H" rather than a "U". I don't think I can change that easily...

Tachibana is weird. He likes "healthy" girls. What is wrong with that?

About Seigaku... 240m is one round around the tennis court. I can't imagine running a km much less the 24 km that they had to run when they had 100 laps to do...

Rankings!

I'm totally pasting them on my LJ cuz they're so great!

Q1. Who would you want as your boyfriend/lover?

No. 1 - Atobe Keigo (XDDD!!)
No. 2 - Fuji Shusuke (X333)
No. 3 - Kikumaru Eiji (XD)
No. 4 - Oshitari Yuushi
No. 5 - Echizen Ryoma (He was at position 4 in the last poll...Oshi took his place ;D)
No. 6 - Sengoku Kiyosumi
No. 7 - Tezuka Kunimitsu (dropped from position 3! *_*;;)
No. 8 - Momoshiro Takeshi (dropped from position 5)
No. 9 - Ootori Choutarou (XD)
No. 10 - Akutagawa Jirou (XDD333)

Atobe-sama is No. 1!!! That's right! That's who I would so totally love! And surprisingly Tezuka is 7 (from 3 too! what a drop!). I'm kinda disappointed htat Momo is higher than Jirou. I would so rather have him... I agree with almost all the others expect I don't really like the hentai Oshitari and Sengoku isn't that great.

Q2. Who do you want for a younger brother?

No. 1 - Echizen Ryoma (once again at position 1 XD)
No. 2 - Dan Taichi
No. 3 - Ootori Choutarou (waiwai X333)
No. 4 - Kikumaru Eiji (he was originally at position 2)
No. 5 - Fuji Yuuta (^^)
No. 6 - Akutagawa Jirou (awww! X3333)
No. 7 - Mukahi Gakuto (XD)
No. 8 - Hiyoshi Wakashi (yeah XD)
No. 9 - Aoi Kentarou
No. 10 - Amane Hikaru/ Dabide (XDD)

Ryoma would be such a cool younger brother but I rather have Dan Taichi. That kid is just so kawaii! Everyone okay except numbers 8 and up. Don't like them. Not really sure I like Yuuta or Choutarou either but they're okay... As younger brothers? Maybe not but I'll like them anyways.

Q3. Who would you want as your older brother?

No. 1 - Fuji Shusuke (XD!)
No. 2 - Sengoku Kiyosumi (moved up from position 10!)
No. 3 - Tezuka Kunimitsu (:33)
No. 4 - Momoshiro Takeshi (dropped from no.3)
No. 5 - Saeki Kojirou (*O*)
No. 6 - Tachibana Kippei
No. 7 - Keigo Atobe (haha XD)
No. 8 - Akutsu Jin (YAY)
No. 9 - Shishido Ryou (he's got the material I think :3)
No. 10 - Akutagawa Jirou (:3333!!)

Fuji as an older brother would suck. Just ask Yuuta. And Sengoku as No. 2? HUH?! We like know nothing of him. Personally I think Atobe should be number 1. I can just imagine it. He'll be so protective in a good, older brother way. Fuji would be protective only in a scary, whacked way.

Q4. Who do you want for a tennis coach?

No. 1 - Fuji Shusuke (XD!)
No. 2 - Saeki Kojirou
No. 3 - Tezuka Kunimitsu
No. 4 - Keigo Atobe (w00t XD)
No. 5 - Oishi Shuichirou (ooo)
No. 6 - Inui Sadaharu (O_O Yeah man XD)
No. 7 - Tachibana Kippei (moved up from position 10)
No. 8 - Ootori Choutarou
No. 9 - Oshitari Yuushi (w00t)
No. 10 - Muromachi Touji

What?! Fuji??? No way! Tezuka and Atobe for me, totally! Nobody else!!! Got it? NOBODY!

Q5. Who do you want for a tutor?

No. 1 - Tezuka Kunimitsu (top position for a second time! XD)
No. 2 - Oshitari Yuushi (yum)
No. 3 - Keigo Atobe (he would never ;___;)
No. 4 - Oishi Shuichirou
No. 5 - Mizuki Hajime
No. 6 - Inui Sadaharu (O_O Yeah man XD)
No. 7 - Ootori Choutarou
No. 8 - Amane Hikaru/Davide (LOL!)
No. 9 - Yukimura Seichi (ooo)
No. 10 - Momoshiro Takeshi (ehehe)

I like it (except I like Atobe better than Tezuka). Oshitari makes sense since he's smart along with Mizuki (I LIKE HIM!) and Inui. Choutarou's nice but the other three??? No way. Not me at least.

Q8. Who would you want to have a tennis match with?

No. 1 - Echizen Ryoma
No. 2 - Dan Taichi
No. 3 - Keigo Atobe
No. 4 - Akutagawa Jirou (hell ya!)
No. 5 - Fuji Shusuke

No. 7 - Kikumaru Eiji
No. 8 - Sengoku Kiyosumi
No. 9 - Ryuusaki Sakuno (HEH? *coughcough*)
No. 10 - Kamio Akira

This list is weird... Ryoma makes sense but the others are kinda like, what? Especially the Sakuno one...

Q9. If you could be a character for a day, who would you pick?

No. 1 - Keigo Atobe
No. 2 - Karupin (HELL YA)
No. 3 - Fuji Shusuke
No. 4 - Echizen Ryoma
No. 5 - Kikumaru Eiji
No. 6 - Mukahi Gakuto
No. 7 - Sengoku Kiyosumi
No. 8 - Akutagawa Jirou

No. 2 - Sengoku Kiyosumi
No. 3 - Kikumaru Eiji
No. 4 - Tezuka Kunimitsu
No. 5 - Momoshiro Takeshi
No. 6 - Amane Hikaru/Davide
No. 7 - Saeki Kojirou
No. 8 - Inui Sadaharu
No. 9 - Ootori Choutarou
No. 10 - Akutagawa Jirou

Okay, I'm offended! Atobe wasn't even listed!!! I mean Tezuka was there... :(

I'm getting kinda bored of this. I might stop soon... Writing about it I mean. I'll still read it.

Neat stuff

Not going to explain since I'm bored. But these are neat:

Silliness: when asked "What kind of person is your type?", most characters' responses had 'ko' at the end (meaning 'girl'), but here's who had just 'hito' (meaning 'person' - take that as you will. XD) - Yuuta, Taichi, Atobe, Hiyoshi, Saeki, Yukimura, Marui, Fuji, Inui, Akazawa, Minami, Tachibana

The Hyotei regulars have their *own* tennis club room (seperate from the masses), where they have 8 computers, a room with a big projector screen and a board room table, and a gym with all-mirrored walls. Indeed, Hyoutei's club room is made for illicit locker room sex. XD

Atobe has in his bag: FIVE cell phones, lip cream, a book by Goethe IN GERMAN, a pocket mirror, a tube of perfume.
Phone #1 is a Vodaphone, used only for overseas calls and German conversation. Phone #2 is a FOMA "tv-type" phone, used for family and (?). Phones 3 & 4 are FOMA with cameras (which he doesn't use often). Phone #5 is really a PHS (?), used for times when it's hard to put in (?) a cell phone.

Gonna continue on... Since I wanna kinda get this done...

Notables that aren't really notable: Tezuka's student body President (god damn him), Oishi's a class rep and Jiroh tends to put on the wrong underwear. Okay...

About schools:

Public Schools (municipal schools (city-owned schools)
Fudoumine Jr. High
Rokkaku Jr. High

Private Schools (Religious)
St. Rudolph

Private Schools (Escalator style school)
Seishun Gakuen
Hyoutei Gakuen
Rikkai Univ. Jr. High
Yamabuki Jr. High

Unknown/No one really gives a damn what they are
Ginka Jr. High
Midoriyama Jr. High
Gyokurin Jr. High
All other schools

Seishun Gakuen

Seigaku begins with the middle school, so
Seishun Jr. Highschool -> Seishun High School -> Seishun University
(although actually calling them "departments" would probably be more accurate than calling each an actual school)

Hyoutei Gakuen

Hyoutei actually starts from elementary school so,
Hyoutei elementary department -> jr. high department -> sr. high department -> the university

Rikkai University

Rikkai starts with middle school like Seigaku, although it can branch to two sections for the high school department:

Rikkai Univ. Jr. High -> Rikkai Univ. High School -> Rikkai University
or
Rikkai Univ. Jr. High -> Rikkai Univ. Technical High School -> Rikkai University

So I guess it depends on what you want to focus on during your high school year.

Yamabuki Jr. High

Yamabuki also starts from Jr. High, but has different options when you get to university level.

Yamabuki Jr. High -> Yamabuki Sr. High
From Sr. High, you can go to either Yamabuki Jr. College or to Yamabuki University.

However, from there the Yamabuki program can continue onto the Yamabuki University Graduate (Post Graduate) School.

Interesting... Based on this, I wanna go to either Hyotei or Seigaku. Based on all other info. I still wanna go to Hytoei or Seigaku. That's the last one. Yes! Done! Off to finish my fic and to awe at my LJ. :) JA!
