and so.. Gintoki said,..

'Life is all about having both happiness and sadness' (Gintama #82)

yep. it is.

you'll never know what's gonna hit you. you'll never know how deep you're gonna fall.
on the other hand,, you'll never know who'll bring you flowers. you'll never know how high you're gonna fly.

but, whether it's falling or flying,,
whether it's a critical hit or an ultimate boost of serotonin.

either way, you have to keep going. you must to keep going.
in fact, you don't have any other option left.
what? running away? Doko ni? where? other universe? Shinde kudasai.
what? stopping time? turning back time? tell me how much sci-fi movie you've watched.

you just have to keep going.
my sister once said., when you're arrive at a crossroads, when you don't know which is right and which is wrong, you still have to keep going. you'll never really know which one is right, or the other way.
when you choose one, and it turns out wrong, what's the odd that the other way will end up in a better situation?
after you're trying and it didn't got to the way you wanted, maybe it's meant to be that way. all you have to do is keep walking. live with the consequences. ssh,, quit whining.

Shuuji in Nobuta wo Produce once said, no matter how deep you fell, you have to keep going. because life won't end even if you're in a dark deep hole. *yep, unless you already dead when you fell, hehe

da..ka..ra. Ganbare yo!
life won't be easy on you, just like how it'll be hard on everyone else.

for the time being, i don't even know what should i do, i don't even understand what is right and what is wrong,, you must have been on that point to, haven't you? or if you really haven't been,, then be patient. you're on your way.

so,, Bismillahirrohmanirrohim. and Gambaru!

Now, you wouldn't find it in any other Anime,,

An Anime that's not using a reuse footage for their opening?? Fuzaken na!!

this is such a surprisingly-stupid-idiotic-baka-aho-ka anime.
i thought the opening song just played as usual,, but then in the end,, Cih. nani yatten da yo, omaeraa!!
you wouldn't expect me to not laugh out loud after seeing that scene, would you??

Well, it was somewhat supposed to be like this:

but then... how come it becomes like this?!!

 

 

  

 

Cih.

Sadaharu's Corner #2

aaah,, gomenne,,
actually on my earlier post, Sadaharu's Corner, i said i'll update the post,, but it seems that, that-only-one-page-post can't expose Sadaharu's cuteness,, and it will be boring though,, to keep scrolling and seeing the same post over and over again.

so here you go,, Sadaharu's Corner #2.

Sadaharu was originally an Inugami (Dog God) that protects the earth energy source (aka Dragon's Pulse or Dragon's Lair), taken care by The Priestess Sisters, along with another Inugami, named Komako. but when the alien (Amanto) came to Earth, they took over the Dragon's Pulse, so The Priestess Sisters had no job, and they eventually gave up in taking care of Sadaharu, due to the high expenses. and that's when Sadaharu became a part of Yorozuya's Family.
if you want to know more, go see Sadaharu's poop :D (please, no offense,, just kidding,, hehe)

and here's a couple of screenshot i took,,

this time there's a disease that cause the people in Edo become bald. unfortunately, Sadaharu caught it too.

Sadaharu's Bald cured after swallowing the whole bottle of rare medicine that was supposed to be taken by Gin, Kagura and Shinpachi. The pic below shows the Yorozuya's Trio reaction after Sadaharu swallowed the whole bottle. :D

yes. it IS a parody of the famous painting- Scream.

This is exactly why you want to have Sadaharu guarding your empty house, haha,,
*eventhough he soon fell for the food the thief gave him. hehe

now, now.. what's wrong with you, Sadaharu? can anyone guess?

yep.. he can't hold it any longer. o oh, Gin Chan, you are doomed. hope you didn't forget to bring the poop bag. haha

Sadaharu trying to get above Elizabeth's ranking in popularity poll by defeating Elizabeth.

he's still. cute.

well,,
with Sadaharu covered-with-blood-but-somehow-still-damn-cute pic,, i guess we can closed the post for now.


Sadaharu's Corner #2 - End

Love, Gintama's way..

Love?
i actually kinda surprised that Gintama talks about love too. well, but what can i say? Love is always there, on our Nichijou - daily life.

speaking of love, here Gintama introduce a one-sided love perform by Sacchan (Sarutobi Ayame) and Isao Kondo.
Ever since Gintoki helps Sacchan, she's totally fall for him. unfortunate for her, Gintoki never had any, any single drop of interest to her. mostly, Gintoki's kicking her if she's in his way. but that didn't stop her from stalking Gin san. everytime, everywhere, she would showed up from any place near Gin san.

Trapped in the same situation as Sacchan, Shinshengumi Captain, Isao Kondo, falls quite hard for Tae Shimura, Shinpachi's sister. just because he founds out that Otae chan is a very nice girl who would accepted her man just the way he is. but then he'll known mostly as a pervert stalker, because he actually can showed up under the table when Otae chan is having a drink or chitchatting. really unfortunate for him, Otae chan never had any feelings either. she only taking advantage of him, telling him stupid things to do.

these are the suspects of one-sided love,, the never-give-up warrior of love,, haks

Sarutobi Ayame - Sacchan

Isao Kondo - Gorilla

other kind of love that Gintama shows is true love, between Taizou Hasegawa and Hatsu, his wife. eventhough they are separated because of Hasegawa's unemployment status, but it's clear that they still caring for each other.

Hasegawa always tried to look good in front of Hatsu. but like i said before in my earlier post, fate just seems like to messed him up. but, Hatsu, still cared for him.

other kind of love would be friendships, right? i guess i don't have to post the pic here, because you can find it in Curtains Open : Introduction "Gintama". a lot of nice pic of friendships there. :D

once, there's a scene where Zura,, err.. i mean, Katsura, talks about love.
he said,

"don't you know that love itself is made up of unnecessary things? an unnecessary flutter of the heart, an unnecessary sense of insecurity, unnecessary struggling, and unnecessary endings. but, who would ever claim they were all unnecessary? no, everything in life is gained by those so-called unnecessary things"

he also said,

"how can love be based on assembled data? love is based on unpredictable events."

haks. damn. right in the heart. :D
so here's the guy who thinks he knows all about love,, :p

oh yeah. he's actually dressed up like Super Mario when he says that. it was to fooled the Shinsengumi that was around.

and i just have to smile when i read the title for Gintama #162,, "Love is unconditional"

eventhough it was all about how Shinpachi and Toushi fights for the official fan club position for their Idol, Otsu Chan. haks. = =a

but then,, there's this quote i like the most.

"Love, whether anything comes of it or not,
is apparently something that makes people grow."

Shimura Shinpachi

... and that's what Gintama taught you about Love,, :)

Sadaharu's Corner

Sadaharu,, a big dog. inugami.
i do love him. haks.

this post will be updated. it's simply sadaharu's pic. he's cute. totally. don't blame me.

Sadaharu's losing appetite. after swallowing.. err.. errrr... hm. you should seen the Anime yourself.

Hijikata is too drunk to play Rock Paper Scissors, so instead of playing with Gin chan, he plays with sadaharu.

Sadaharu on rainy day...

yaaawwnnn... hm. how cute is that? >_<

Sadaharu in Opening section,,

Sadaharu was called as a guest in a TV show

the presenter thought that Sadaharu is a genius Dog. he might understand human talk. so he's got nothing to worry about.

and... that's what he got.

Be a Man! MADAO way..

Taizou Hasegawa, known as MADAO, yang punya banyak makna.
Madao. Nama panggilan ini pertama kali dilontarkan oleh Kagura.

(ma)ru de (da)me na (o)ssan: good-for-nothing old man.

kemudian nama panggilan ini semakin berkembang, tergantung keadaan. dan beberapa kepanjangannya adalah:
1. (ma)jide (da)ssai (o)yaji: the really uncool old man
2.(ma)ssa ni (da)rusou na (o)yaji: really uncool-looking old man
3.(ma)ttaku (da)rakushite (o)ssan: really depraved old man
4.(ma)zui (da)shi to (o)age: horrid bean curd
5.(ma)ttaku (da)ijobu ja nai (o)kyaku: customer who's really not all right
6.(ma)tomo ni (da)karetakunai (o)toko: men no one wants to date
7.(ma)ji de (da)kaetai (o)toko: man one seriously wants to date
8.(ma)ttaku (da)masenai (o)toboke: fool who unconvincingly feigns ignorance
9.(ma)ssugu ikite no (da)inashi na jinsei na (o)jisan: old man who lives as he wants, but accomplishes nothing

(source)

and here's the guy.

really. he's a good guy. fate just don't seem good for him. surely God loves him in i-don't-know-which-way.
haks.

there's even an episode entitled

"good things will not happen all in a row, but bad things will." (Gintama #28)


shikashi...

Hasegawa san once said,,

"we'll only make our money last if we've worked hard to earn it, in the first place"

and

"when you're feeling down, how do you make yourself feel better? you can classify how humans make themselves feel better into two different categories: the first looks at someone who's worse off than they are to reassure themselves that they're all right. the other looks towards something much bigger than they are to realize their problems are insignificant. i belong to the second type."

see.. i told ya. he's a good guy.

Curtains Open : Introduction "Gintama"

Gintama,
artinya jiwanya Gin, atau Gin's soul. Gin's Spirit. kurang lebih seperti itu.

Anime yang cukup menyenangkan, meskipun joke-nya kadang-kadang dipenuhi dengan bunyi *beep* dan juga gambar mosaic. disini saya baru mengenal istilah 'Punchline', sebuah pernyataan untuk menekankan sisi lucu dari suatu candaan atau pernyataan dari tokoh lain. mereka bahkan punya beberapa tokoh untuk memerankan Punchliner.

menariknya adalah, anime ini ringan, tapi sekaligus berat. saya tidak ingin membandingkan dengan One Piece, Naruto, atau Bleach,, tapi saya jamin, Gintama tidak kalah. :D
ada sisi dimana Gintama, melalui karakter-karakternya, mengajarkan tentang hal-hal sederhana dalam hidup.
bahkan sempat menemukan kata-kata ini saat Opening-nya,

"Brighten the room... and don't get too close to the screen while watching."

haks.


saya belum terlalu tau banyak tentang Anime ini. menontonnya saja saya belum kelar. masih on progress.
jadi jangan harap saya bisa menjelaskan dengan rinci Gintama itu seperti apa. watch it by yourself, and you'll understand.

label ini khusus untuk Gintama, karena saya ingin mengupload beberapa gambar-gambar aneh yang saya capture dari Anime ini. dan honestly, quotes yang sering saya post juga berasal dari Gintama.

Gintama,, pemeran utamanya adalah Gintoki Sakata, kemudian satu persatu pemeran penting lainnya muncul, yaitu Shimura Shinpachi, Kagura, Sadaharu, Shimura Tae (kakaknya Shinpachi), Kondo Isao, Hijikata Toushiro, Okita Sougo, dan masih banyak lagi.

saya lupa di anime ep berapa, tapi Gin-chan pernah menjelaskan secara singkat seperti apa Anime Gintama ini. Gin, bersama dengan Shinpachi, Kagura, dan member terbaru, Sadaharu, menjalankan sebuah bisnis yang bernama Yorozuya, atau freelancer. mereka akan melakukan apa pun, asalkan dibayar. mulai dari tangkap kucing, balas dendam, nyamar jadi host, dan sebagainya.

suatu waktu, Gin diminta oleh anak-anak yatim untuk membalaskan dendam ayah angkat mereka, yang kebetulan membunuh untuk menghidupi anak-anak yatim tersebut. tapi sayangnya Gin akan melawan 'orang dibalik layar' pemerintahan yang korup. seorang kawan polisinya, Hijikata Toushiro, menyarankannya untuk tidak pergi. karena dia pasti mati. dan Gin menjawab,

"Even if i don't go, I'll still die. but there's this one organ that's even more important than my own heart. you can't see it, but it's there. because of it, I can stand tall. even if I'm all worn-down, I can still walk. and if i don't go, it'll break. My very own.. soul. it'll break. even if my heart stop beating, it is still more important. it doesn't matter if I'm old and can't walk. it will stand tall."

 so. enjoy, :)

 and finally... this guys,, runs the Yorozuya.. and keep me smiling, :)
