It’s time for an updated Three Tail cast pic! This one introduces their rival band (whose name I still haven’t come up with yet).

I’m including character bios for everyone in the photo just to keep it up to speed, but I’ll put them under the cut.

Background Texture From: https://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=3090998

Characters from left to right: Chico Perla, Aku Maka, Ji-Ku Maka (Olives sitting on his head), Kento Shimura (Lentils sitting on his shoulder), Sai Fuji and Je-Muzu Masamoto.

Character Bios: Three Tail

Ji-Ku Maka: Multi-talented yet self absorbed, Ji-Ku is a popular guy. His fame goes to his head, so he tends to brag a lot. He’s optimistic, energetic and can be childish. He even likes to flirt with his fans sometimes. He tends to be airheaded and he’ll often make bad decisions because he doesn’t think them through. Because of this he tends to get on the nerves of his younger brother, Aku.

He’s an extrovert who can’t live without attention, which is part of why he loves being an idol. He doesn’t understand it when people aren’t interested in him. Also, don’t mention to him that he’s short: he hates that. He tends to have a short temper at times, but deep down he’s a nice guy. He likes to sing the most, but can also play the guitar.

Aku Maka: The opposite of his older brother Ji-Ku, Aku is introverted, pessimistic and not very confident. If he’s under pressure he can even suddenly start stuttering, or lower his voice so that it sounds much quieter. Despite being an idol, he can get easily flustered when all eyes are on him. However, he’s also the smartest member of the group, and he’s a nerd for music, video games, and pop culture in general. He tries to hide this because he wants his fans to think he’s more “cool”; his main obsession is fashion, and he constantly seeks out clothes that will help him maintain a “cool” image.

Even though sometimes he can doubt his own work, he’s overjoyed when his fans are happy, and deep down, a part of him is proud of himself, even if he might not realize it sometimes. As a result of his pessimism and insecurity, he has a tendency to be very snarky, especially to Ji-Ku, who often annoys him.

He can sing, and he can even play the piano. Performing slowly but surely is getting him out of his shell. He has an alter ego as a drag queen, which he adopted to not only try out more fashions but mainly to help him conquer his stage fright.

Sai Fuji: Sai first ran into Ji-Ku and Aku when they first moved to Sekyuo, and he’s been their best friend and third band member ever since. He’s a reliable and loyal guy who is usually the most calm and logical member of the group; when Ji-Ku and Aku get into scuffles he’ll be the one who stops the fighting. However, he hides a nasty jealousy problem, mainly because he’s a fox within a nation that just adores cats, and he’s less popular than Ji-Ku and Aku are. His jealousy can make him act almost bratty as a result sometimes, and he could even lose his cool and burst into a crying fit if it gets too extreme. However, he’s usually very nice and will go out of his way to do things for people.

He has a habit of getting easily smitten for handsome men, and as a result he can be easily influenced or even pushed around by his crushes at time. He often gets bashful, however, and refuses to admit if he has a crush on someone. He has had playful crushes on both Ji-Ku and Je-Muzu in the past among others, but truthfully he’s easily enamored by anybody in a boyband, as he’s been a fan of boybands since he was a kid, and to this day is still a walking encyclopedia of boyband trivia. Despite his strong emotions, none of his crushes ever actually mean anything however, and he’s okay with just being everyone’s friend.

When Ji-Ku and Aku get into their antics he’ll try his best to stop them; however stern lectures don’t usually work on them, so he rarely gets through. Sometimes he’ll even join them, albeit reluctantly at first. Although they frustrate him, he really does care about them and would probably be alone without them.

He likes to sing but also can play guitar/bass.

Olives: A very bossy cat who’s the group’s manager, and often times their songwriter and producer, too. She’s very honest and is never afraid to say what she thinks. She tries to be imposing in order to make up for her small stature, since people don’t take her seriously; she wants to be a legend and considered an important player in the music industry. She has an affinity for “hip” or street fashions, since she thinks they make her look more formidable. Sometimes she makes the guys do things simply because she has that authority and she loves having people at her whim. She might just hide a caring side for them, though.

Being a cat, sometimes she likes to use her cute charm to her advantage. She can be cute one minute, but loud and scathing the next. Most of the public isn’t even aware of just how vile her attitude can get.

Although it may not be obvious at first glance, Olives is actually quite smart and experienced, and is great at giving advice to anyone who gets on her good side. She even went to college, although she was easily distracted whenever a teacher used a laser pointer.

She and the boys get on each other’s nerves frequently. However, over time she learns to be less harsh towards them as they melt her once-cold heart.

The Rivals (Band Name Still Unknown)

Kento Shimura: He’s half scorpion and, true to his species, has plenty of sting as a result of his mischievousness and wit. He has a “bad boy” image, and presents himself as being edgy. He likes to play tricks on people because he loves feeling like he’s got the upper hand, and he even likes to use his tail to hang upside down and surprise people. He’s prone to making sassy quips. He’s quite pretentious, stubborn, and can even hiss when provoked; this personality leads to him often being at odds with Ji-Ku, his main rival.

Although he maintains a tough image in public, truthfully he doesn’t like how people are often scared of him due to his being part scorpion. Out of the public eye, he likes to write poetry and is also a fan of traditional tea ceremonies. He’s quite confident and proud of his work, but he doesn’t boast explicitly like Ji-Ku does; however, when challenged he always feels a need to assert his superiority.

He’s a great singer, and is surprisingly adept at playing an acoustic guitar, despite what his hardcore image might suggest.

Chico Perla: A chihuahua boy of foreign ancestry. He’s one of the few people shorter than Ji-Ku, but he doesn’t mind. Although he appears to be a child at first glance, he’s only small as a result of his species. However he acts just like a child; he’s very jumpy, fun-loving and adventurous. Because of his constant energy, he usually needs to be supervised, as he has a tendency to break things. He also tends to talk a lot, regardless of people want to listen. Because of his cute, childish appearance, he tends to get things handed to him, and is often taken aback when he isn’t entitled to things.

Not only does he sing, but he loves to act, especially in Broadway-style musicals. His bandmates don’t really understand his love for musicals and theater, but they support him regardless. He also can play drums.

Je-Muzu Masamoto: A close friend of Chico’s and usually the one who attempts to keep him out of trouble. Je-Muzu tends to have “bro”-ish tendencies due to his love of exercising and his obsession with looking at cars, despite the fact that he often doesn’t actually understand how they work. Behind his “bro”-ish exterior however, his main passion is zen culture, and he’s quite knowledgeable about incense and chakras. This allows him to maintain a cool head, even in chaos (most of the time). He even has a miniature zen rock garden he likes to care for, but he has to be careful with it since he’s so strong, he sometimes accidentally breaks the rake and has to buy a new one. He’s also quite the outdoors-man, especially compared to Kento and Chico.

He tends to be proud, especially of his strength, and often can’t relate to other people’s situations; he means well, though, and will try his best to be a protective guardian when called upon. He has a powerful voice, but can also play the piano and keyboard.

Lentils: The band’s manager, a very tiny Scorpion who is close to Kento. However, they’re nothing alike; Lentils desires nothing more than to be loved and to be seen as “cute”. Unlike Olives, she’s soft spoken, polite, and friendly, and she never wants to offend anybody or step on anyone’s toes. She gets quite sad when she sees people shriek and run away from her in fear, though, and she wishes people wouldn’t judge her just because she’s a scorpion.

Just like Olives, she went to college, and she’s very book smart. She’s quite the talented songwriter and producer as well. She has trouble at social gatherings, though, mainly because she’s so small she often has to raise her voice and elevate herself in order to get noticed. She has difficulty even handing out her business card unless Kento holds her in his palms so she can make eye contact with people.

Despite being a manger she is easily manipulated and a pushover due to her wanting to fit in more than anything else.

Your Lie in April (Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso) is a 2016 Japanese youth music romance film directed by Takehiko Shinjō, written by Yukari Tatsui , starring Suzu Hirose and Kento Yamazaki and based on the manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Naoshi Arakawa .

Kousei Arima was a piano prodigy until his cruel taskmaster of a mother died suddenly, changing his life forever. Driven by his pain to abandon piano, Kosei now lives in a monotonous, colorless world. Having resigned himself to a bland life, he is surprised when he meets Kaori Miyazono, a violinist with an unorthodox style. Can she bring Kosei back to music, and back to life?

Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso is a heart-rending story, a story about a group of friends,specifically about a monotonous piano prodigy boy and a care free violinist girl. Kousei Arima is a piano prodigy who won every contests he joins not until his mother passed away. He blames his self for what happened to his mother and got traumatized. After his mother died he never played piano again. Years later on a month of April he met Kaori Miyazono a brilliant and care-free violinist girl which he doesn’t know that will change his life. Kaori helps Kousei get out of his dark past. As you watch this, you will feel every emotion. You will love those quotes they both share and the music is so soothing which makes the movie pleasure to watch. While kaori helps her “friend a” Kousei, she also suffers some hardships. She is seriously ill and there is a high chance that she will die if the operation is unsuccesful,which made my eyes wet. Behind those cheery eyes and bright smile of kaori lies a suffering kaori. Their bitter sweet lovestory really left me crying and took weeks to recover and move on.

Throughout the movie, Kaori Miyazono is the one I adore most. I love how she can have a bright aura and can paste a sweet smile on her face despite the problems she have. She gives all her heart to the music which makes every performance of hers graceful. She also live the way she like it just like how she plays every piece on her violin, she embraces life at its roots. Which I wish I can do. And if ever I have a chance to ask her, I would ask “how did you do those things?,” and “did ‘friend a’ Kousei reach you?”

“Life is meant to be lived”

With so many happenings around us,all the pressures we get,those responsibilities that should be done and moments we don’t expect, it’s possible that we forget that life is short and has its ending. That it can cut those memories and moments we had and will never continue again. Life is short but unpredictable that you will just notice one day it’s fading into black. And before it ends,regret is the last thing you want in mind. But for kaori, she knows it all, she knows that her ending is coming. that’s why she live her life the fullest everyday and everytime she’s with Kousei. Even the monotonous life of Kousei, Kaori knew she had lived her life. And everyone should have that attitude. Carpe diem,seize the day. Let’s live our lives knowing some thief might snatch it from us. Open every door of oppurtunity infront you and never waste one. And cherish every moment you share with your loved ones just like Kaori did.

SHIGATSU WA KIMI NO USO LIVE-ACTION MOVIE REVIEW~

Since it’s my second time to watch Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso Live-action and so done with it, I’m going to make a review of this live-action since I didn’t have the time (way back in December 14 when me and my friend Shams watched it on cinema in Robinsons) because of hectic schedules in our OJT and still have classes in school.

At first, my heart was so excited and beating fast because that was the first time that I’m going to see Kento on big screen to be honest and I really saved money for it. My friend Shamil Diesta accompanied me because she kept a promise that she’s going to watch it with me since she already finished the anime-version.

So, the movie really never made me feel dismayed. I am not saying this because I am a yamaken fan but if anyone who knows the anime happens to watch it, he or she would feel the same way. There were cut scenes. Yes, but it never made the movie a boring movie. I feel relieved because I expect that the movie will focus on Arima and Kaori’s life and they did. Kento Yamazaki (Kousei Arima) and Suzu Hirose (Kaori Miyazono) did a great job in the movie. Have heard that they practiced 6 months playing piano and violin. They were really a great pair for me because I know that both are cheerful people in real life. And also, Anna Ishi (Tsubaki Sawabe) and Taishi Nakagawa (Ryota Watari) did also a great job portraying the second lead roles.

The cinematography is 100% good. If you were to notice, the movie was calm and everyone will feel welcomed to watch.

The emotions were good also, not over-reacting. The cries were there and I really like Kaori’s crying moment and I felt like lost because she’s gonna leave Arima anytime soon. :’( (That was hard!).

The movie also showcases Friendship and a little bit of Romance when Arima confesses to Kaori at the rooftop of the hospital (I really felt like Kento is confessing to me puhahaha) and Kaori’s confession on the letter where I cried a lot about.

And the ending scenes, I like the way the director never wanted a sad ending but it appeared sad for me anyway. Huhuhuhu. But if you can notice, no one said that “Hey Kaori is dead” and no signs were displayed except when Tsubaki and Watari asked Arima if he is eating properly would make a thinking that something happened to Kaori, yes, but for those who have watched the anime, they know that Kaori will be dead soon. So it appeared less sad anyway. But it was sad. yes it was :’’’’’’’’’’’’(

Well, what I learned is you can still enjoy life when you still have time to enjoy it. I learned to value friends and think of your happy moments together and not the bad ones. If you lose a friend, you still have some. But if no one’s left, you can make some.

I just realized that life will give us the one that we deserve, the one who we can learn from with and the one that will change us forever.

So I guess this is the fruit of watching sensible movies. You can actually learn from those movies you’ve watched, whether it’s good or bad, you can learn from it.

SO YEAH, THUMBS UP FOR THIS MOVIE. YEY!

For those who are curious enough, watch it on http://kissasian.com/Drama/Your-Lie-in-April/Movie?id=33186
