JC news...? Prince of Tennis fans...scroll to the bottom!

[foxmonkey]

I've been sick (again! AGAIN!) again, so I've been logging out early every night. Oy with the not feeling well! I think I'm finally human again, so here I am. :-D Yes, I know you're all thrilled.

In gossip seen around the schoolyard, it seems that MTV-US has said they'll play ADIDAS if it's a hit in Europe. Weh? Yeah, way to be on the cutting edge, MTV! They've become more corporate than the New York Stock Exchange. Jeebus. To that end I'm going to snag this next bit from stamplet and hope she doesn't hurt me:

TRL UK - we have to scroll to the bottom and type in the artist name and video title. I'm sure we can vote more than once, but I don't know what the vote limit is, if any.

Video-C - it's already #5 on the Video-C Weekly Top Ten (chart is on the right of the main page). You can click on the ADIDAS graphic to go to the ADIDAS page, then click on the "vote now" button. You do have to register before you can vote.

In even more interesting news, it also seems as though we might expect a second album. This fills me with squeeful joy that you can't even imagine. WAIT! You're all mostly JC fans too, so you probably *can* imagine. You're probably all filled with squeeful joy too! So yay! And I have four JC Month days to catch up on. I clearly suck.

In not-JC news, HEY, PRINCE OF TENNIS FANS!!! Can one of you tell me who Ryoma's friend is? Thanks!

Yay! Thank you! :-) I was just about to amend my post to ask about another guy when I saw this.

And! Hey! I just realized that your icon is the other guy I was curious about, I think! Is that a chibi version of this guy? And he's on the team?

And Horio isn't really Ryoma's friend, but rather they just happen to be in the same class (both are first years). And yes, her icon does have chibi!Tezuka, the bucho (captain) of the Seigaku team.

You need to keep watching the series! You need to see Mizuki (St. Rudolph) and Atobe (Hyotei) and *squee* <3 ;)

You need to keep watching the series!

If I can find the DVDs at Blockbuster or Half-Price Books I probably will. How can I resist the lure of Kaidoh and Karupin's illicit love affair???

I must admit that I find Tezuka kind of cute. Aiiii! Shoot me now.

The series hasn't been licensed yet, so you won't find it in either place.

It can be downloaded off of Bit Torrent, or I could send you a copy of of the first few episodes--I've got 31 CDs worth of episodes right now--but for right now I'd be willing to make you a copy of the first twenty or so episodes to get you started ^_^

Holy cow! Uhm. Yes please. :-D

[gilded_lady]

Heh. I'll get on it. Send me your addy so when I'm done I can send them out :)

Whee! Thanks. :-)

Yes. That's Tezuka Kunimitsu, the captain of the Seigaku tennis club. (See current icon.) He's my favorite. Well, my favorite in the way that Chris is my favorite in the *NSYNC fandom. he's the one that makes me go SQUEE!!! each time I see him. Fuji Syusuke is my Lance, the one I go "Yes, Master! I am your humble and obedient minion! Command me!" to. Needless to say, Tezu/Fuji is my OTP.

If you haven't seen any of the episodes I really recommend that you do. This series isome of the best crack there is. :) And feel free to ask any more questions! (though I'm only up to episode 72.)

[foxmonkey.livejournal.com]

You're the second or third person who's mentioned Fuji as their favorite. I love the crack that is Kaidoh/Karupin (because I'm insane!). You can probably tell that the only ep I've seen - wait, I think I saw part of another one - is #27, Karupin's Adventure. Aaaaah! So cute! I saw a link somewhere for megabillions of the episodes on DVD. I think it was a hundred bucks, which is a bit steep. I'm going to do some poking around at the used CD/DVD store, see what I can find. :-)

$100 might not be too bad, actually, depending on the number of episodes you're given. If it is for the first three multi-disc sets of the HK sub, it's a very good deal.

Personally, I'm waiting for the new one to come out. I have to see the end of Ryoma/Sanada's match, damn it!
