Music I Love: 1986
Higher Love- Steve Winwood
This is a cool song with a great soulful sound.
The Way It Is- Bruce Hornsby
Bruce Hornsby also played piano on Bonnie Raitt's I Can't Make You Love Me.
This one is a catchy song and easy to sing along with.
Keep Your Hands to Yourself- The Georgia Satellites
This is a rollicking blues story song about a young gentleman who wants to make out with his girl, and is turned away at every encounter with insistences that he commit first before she gives him anything. It contains the hilarious lines:
"Then she told me some story about free milk and a cow,
And said no huggy, no kissy until I get a wedding vow"
Take a listen and if you like the blues... and humor, you'll like this one.
No One Is To Blame- Howard Jones
I LOVE this song. If I had to single out 5 favorites from the entire decade, this would have to the list.
"And you want her, and she wants you
We want everyone
And you want her and she wants you
No one, no one, no one ever is to blame"

Anime i’ve Watched
That begin with a U!
Yep this is how i’m going to bring over all the anime and manga i’ve watched and posted about on the old blog. It’s not so detailed but it will have to do. Anything new I watch or read from this point on will have their own posts.
Uchuu Patrol Luluco (Space Patrol Luluco):
Genres: TV Short, Action, Adventure, Comedy, Space
Synopsis: Living an abnormal existence in Ogikubo, an intergalactic melting pot of humans and aliens as well as the only Space Immigration Zone on Earth, Luluco is a bubbly middle school girl who just wants to be normal. One morning, however, her father, who works at the Space Patrol, eats a volatile sleep capsule by mistake and is frozen solid! To make matters worse, Luluco accidentally breaks him, so she hurries off to his office for help. There, the chief of the Space Patrol, Over Justice, hires Luluco as a space temp worker for undercover investigations, so that the institution may crack down on crime within her school.
Made to don the Space Patrol suit and sent on her way to mete out justice, Luluco attempts to maintain the image of a normal girl who does not stand out in any way. But she soon discovers that with the automatic systems and inherently zealous judiciousness of the Space Patrol suit, continuing to be normal will be more difficult than she thought.

My Rating: 8/10
Finished airing in 2016 with a total of 13, 7 minute long episodes.
My Thoughts: Ridiculous, short and fun. It’s a tv short so there isn’t all that much to write about but it’s certainly a fun ride and has a distinctive style!
Ulibyeol Ilhowa Eollugso (Satellite Girl and Milk Cow):
Genres: Comedy, Kids, Magic, Romance, Films
Synopsis: An adventure by Il-ho the Satellite Girl and a shy cow to save the world from a black monster.
"The Satellite Girl and Milk Cow" is a debuting animation by Jang Hyeong-yoon who is also known as the 'genius director' for his achievements in the omnibus movie "Indie Anibox: Selma's Protein Coffee" and others.

My Rating: 4/10
A film released in 2014.
My Thoughts: I know i normally say that every anime film is worth at least a single watch but this one is not. I’d pass unless this looks like something that would really interest you.
Umi ga Kikoeru (The Ocean Waves):
Genres: Drama, Romance, School, Slice of Life, Films
Synopsis: Ocean Waves is a high school love story set in Kochi, Japan. Morisaki Taku and Matsuno Yutaka are best friends when a girl from Tokyo named Muto Rikako transfers to their school. Excluding herself from group activities, she's eventually labeled a snob. Matsuno has a crush on Rikako, so it's no surprise that he gets a little jealous when Morisaki and Rikako start spending more time together. The rumors around school get worse, but Morisaki still insists there is nothing between him and Rikako.

My Rating: 7/10
A film released in 1993.
My Thoughts: Another film that I found pretty soso. Better than the milk cow one but not as amazing as some in my opinion.
Usagi Drop:
Genres: Josei, Slice of Life
Synopsis: Daikichi Kawachi is a 30-year-old bachelor working a respectable job but otherwise wandering aimlessly through life. When his grandfather suddenly passes away, he returns to the family home to pay his respects. Upon arriving at the house, he meets a mysterious young girl named Rin who, to Daikichi’s astonishment, is his grandfather's illegitimate daughter!
The shy and unapproachable girl is deemed an embarrassment to the family, and finds herself ostracized by her father's relatives, all of them refusing to take care of her in the wake of his death. Daikichi, angered by their coldness towards Rin, announces that he will take her in—despite the fact that he is a young, single man with no prior childcare experience.
Usagi Drop is the story of Daikichi's journey through fatherhood as he raises Rin with his gentle and affectionate nature, as well as an exploration of the warmth and interdependence that are at the heart of a happy, close-knit family.

My Rating: 5/10

My Thoughts: It just keeps going and it’s getting worse... or maybe just the lack of character development or anything look like a plot makes it seem as though it has gotten worse.
