Day 5 of Hotsui Matsuri: The Beauty of Natsume Yuujinchou
Here's a brief summary of why Natsume Yuujinchou is a beautiful, beautiful anime.
#anime #anitwt #hotsuimatsuri #natsumeyuujinchou
It’s either your calming cup of tea or the most boring show you’ve ever seen. It paints gorgeous sceneries, touches on ancient mythologies, and crafts soothing and beautiful OSTs. The show is honestly one of my favorites, and it’s perfect for Hotsui Matsuri. Natsume Yuujinchou, or better known as Natsume’s Book of Friends is a slice-of-life anime/manga about an orphan boy who inherited a book…

Day 2 of Hotsui Matsuri: Nihongo Legends-Tengu
Hotsui Matsuri: Tengu Time Edition
#anime #anitwt #hotsuimatsuri
Some people call them tricksters, others say they are ogres, and some yet liken them to angels instead. What mysterious creature do I speak of today? The Nihongo Legend of a yokai depicted as humanoid creatures with red faces, long noses, and avian wings. The creature I speak of is none other than the infamous tengu. Today for Hotsui Matsuri, we’re going to explore the legend of the…

Day 6 of Hotsui Matsuri: Japanese Karma- Good Luck/Bad Fortune
Hey all, welcome back to Hotsui Matsuri, it’s our last and final day so we figured we talk a little bit about the funny and ironic use of Good and Bad fortune in anime and Japanese media. One of the basics to this push and pull knowing a few basic facts about Buddhism and its karma.
What are the 12 laws of karma?
The 12 laws of karma are the Great Law, the law of creation, the law of humility,…

Day 4 of Hotsui Matsuri: Highlighting More Traditional Instruments
I'm back at it, highlighting five more traditional Japanese instruments!
#HotsuiMatsuri
It’s Hotsui Matsuri day four and Star and I have officially (hopefully) survived the heatwave in our city! Days of over 105 degrees really made me miss our normally tame summers, but hey–that’s global warming for you. If ever there was a reason for you to start caring about the environment, it should be that our planet is literally burning. ANYWAY, today on Hotsui Matsuri, I’m going to be…

Day 3 of Hotsui Matsuri: Nihongo Legends-Sacred Weapons
Hey! Welcome to another day of Hotsui Matsuri! I wanted to write a little piece about these mystical objects in Japanese folklore since they are sprinkled in a lot of anime and japanese media.
Many of my favorites come from classic tales like The Tale of the bamboo-cutter, where a bamboo-cutter and his wife raise a tiny child he finds in a bamboo shoot who turns out to be the missing Moon…

Hotsui Matsuri Day 5 - More Traditional Japanese Instruments
It's the final day of Hotsui Matsuri! And we're talking about more traditional Japanese Instruments!
#hotsuimatsuri #aniblogger
How are we already at day five? Hotsui Matsuri is coming to a close today and we’ve already been there and back again to our local Obon Festival to do some Bon Odori. So today, at the end of the day, I’m here to sit down and talk about some more traditional Japanese Instruments; because if there’s one thing we can all join together with and understand–it’s music.

Hotsui Matsuri Day 2- Two songs that kids learn in Japan
Happy Hotsui Matsuri! This little girl can sing better than you in Japanese #anitwit
For those of us that are learning Japanese, I, Star would say that music is a really good way of practicing how to pronounce words. Like how some Americans learn Heart and Soul I also learned Neko Funjatta on piano and only remember the first verse in lyrics. But as I got older and started hearing how other language classes learned songs I challenged my teacher in highschool to give us a song.…

#anime #hotsuimatsuri
Happy Hotsui Matsuri everyone! I hope you all read Star’s opening post the other day about this next campaign which — whoops. Is kicking off this month! I personally enjoy Hotsui Matsuri because it leads up to Obon Odori–which you can read all about in Star’s post from last year! Our local Obon Odori fest is this Saturday and I’m excited, but I’m more excited to share some more Hotsui Matusri…

First Impressions: Phantom of Idol
They just don't make idols like they used to...First Impressions: Phantom of the Idol!
#anime #otakuthursday #anitwt
Welcome back to Otaku Thursday! It is the first of a new month, and may I just say I’m floored that it is already September? I feel like the season of anime only just began and yet here we are, already over halfway done with it! I feel like just yesterday we were at the beginning of August and celebrating Hotsui Matsuri. But no, here we are in September, I’m waiting for summer to end and fall to…

First Impressions: Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer
The lizard is the best part of this.
#anime #otakuthursday
Hello and welcome back to Otaku Thursday! For some reason, it feels like it’s been ages since we last did a First Impressions, which is weird because it really hasn’t! We did just finish out Hotsui Matsuri campaign at the top of the month, so maybe that’s it? I don’t know. Either way, here we are, doing our first First Impressions and today we’re talking about one of the strangest concepts of the…

Hotsui Matsuri Day 4- Demystifying the traditional card game Hanafuda
Does anyone else play #hanafuda? I love this game so much
Hey! Welcome to another day of Hotsui Matsuri! I’m super excited about this post because I, Star, finally get to talk about the love I have for this game! So I’ve been playing this game with my family for years. We don’t gamble… But you definitely can lose a lot of money playing this game. It gained some popularity when Summer Wars featured it as the battle to defeat the big bad. Some know it as…

Happy #Obon and day 4 of #HotsuiMatsuri
