J's Chimes: The Winter Olympics


    With the winter Olympics at hand, lots of parodies start coming out one at a time for the benefit of the public's enjoyment. Some game maker however, took this opportunity to make it into a game that its title does seemingly looks like Street Fighter and plays like Mortal Combat. Featuring all the famous skaters around the world, Figure Skater 2 is a game you might wanna check out if you're bored with your current high-tech games and have nothing else better to do...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: No Yuri


    Sure enough you do see signs like 'No Smoking' or 'No Eating And Drinking' in the trains. Well someone got a little creative by creating a sign that reads 'Please Do It At Home, Please Refrain From Putting On Yuri-Play In The Train'. What's even more interesting is that he'd put anime characters in it too... Hmm... wonder how others will react if this is really put in trains in Singapore.Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: New Look For Another Beginning


    After 50,000 hits, J's Chimes can't stay stagnant anymore. Now we're going traditional as in a wood setting.... After various feedbacks, have decided to take out the music as it causes a lot of ruckus. Removed a couple of stuff too here and there for the main page as well. In any case it looks better than I'd thought. Hope this new revamp would give you a brand new outlook towards J's Chimes.Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes:Real Life Locations


    Love the anime To Aru Majutsu No Index or To Aru Kagaku No Railgun? Well, the Academy City in which the plot was for these 2 animes really does exist. Err as in there really is such a place that looks like this in the city of Tama, Kanagawa. These photos are a comparison between the anime and the real photos of that city. Lol, it's totally the same except that anime company decided to add in a couple of stuff here and there.Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Amazingly Real


    With the launch of the new illusion game on the 19th Feb this year, there are mixed reactions towards the quality of the game. Though it's short as so to speak, it's backed up but the powerful and realistic movements and looks of the female characters. Of course the fact that you'd need a powerful computer to run well... What's more, with webcam interaction, 3D glasses enabled, widescreen mode and double mouse playability, this makes the game truly a level above the rest.Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Anime Openings


    Every anime has it's own unique opening theme with its songs but only a couple few caught my attention as 1 of my top 10 list. The current season which I love would definitely be Kimi No Todoke with its stylist, simplicity and creative art for its opening.
    My list of favs would be (Not in order of ranking):
    1. Kimi No Todoke
    2. Eden Of The East
    3. Druaga No Tou - The Sword Of Uruk, The Aegis of Uruk
    4. Macross Frontier
    5. Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu
    6. Speed Grapher
    7. Welcome To The NHK!
    8. World Destruction
    9. Durarara!
    10. Fairy Tail
    Most of them are pretty current as I'd hear them plenty of times. These 10 animes are some of the ones that I'd watched the opening too with the anime instead of skipping it because they are just kinda addictive viewing them. So what's your favourite anime openings?Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Plummeting Sales for FFXIII


    Yup, it's no longer a myth... sales for the new Final Fantasy XIII has dropped tremendously from the usual to a low price of 3980yen (That means something like becoming a platinum version cost of a game.) Seems like there are too many in excess and thus game stores have to sell them at low prices to shift their stock from the shelves. I wonder would it be the same for Singapore... I mean shop owners will definitely still sell at the usual price and await some unexpected people who don't know about this to purchase it and earn a lump sum out of cheap goods... well you may never know. Or perhaps it's different in other countries where the FF series are maybe more popular...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Love Plus


    Love Plus, the Love dating simulation game by Konami has become a popular hit ever since its launch in Japan... Works just like a tamagouchi back in the days, this time you'd have to interact with a virtual girl instead and satisfying her needs for example a date or so etc.Here's a clip of what it actually is and how 3 people got carried away with the characters in the game. Hmm, would sure like to try it too... seems pretty amusing...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Chinese New Year


    It comes so quickly and it goes even quicker. And now is the second day of the Chinese New Year. Haven't been posting on time because of the many events and stuff to do during this period of time. Chinese New Year also means the Ang Baos too as now I have at least a bit of money to spend on anime stuff at places like China Square Central or on console games. Though it may be a bit sad that it's gonna be over soon, something that many have been waiting for will be coming on the 19 Feb. More about it in my next post...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Ronery Valentine New Year


    Another ronery day for all singles out there who aren't able to get a date today... And the usual sights and sounds will then follow for example an all males group outing for a lan gaming or dinner session, buy cake and celebrate at home at one lonely corner, watching animes or playing love simulation games like ToHeart or Tokimeki Memorial, getting jealous at couples holding hands and eating out at restaurants with bouquets or chocolates at hand, etc... Sigh... However Valentine's Day do crash with the Chinese New Year so it acts as an excuse and something to help us lighten up our sad spirits... Happy Chinese New Year and a sad sad Valentine's Day...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Happy Chinese New Year


    Chinese New Year is just a day away and many would be preparing for the coming festival, but somehow or rather it coincides with the dreaded Valentine's Day which are probably hated by all singles out there. Picture taken from thebanzaieffect.com, Miku has a little lecture on what the Chinese New Year is about... Somehow. In any case, J's Chimes wishes all a Happy and prosperous Chinese New Year!Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: The 'Final' Fantasy?


    After watching tons of preview for the new Final Fantasy 13, anyone will fall in love with it as it just looks so stunning and nice. However it is even more shocking to believe that sales for the Final Fantasy series has dropped tremendously to 1980 yen (SGD$31~) in Japan. Store are seen unable to shift their stock for that game and have been selling them at low prices. It is not known if the statistics are the same for the US and UK region launch for Final Fantasy but doubt would be the same as gamers have different preferences. There are plenty of really good games this year like Modern Warfare and L4D2 and such so many people were playing those instead resulting in a much lesser appeal to RPG games.

J's Chimes: Anime Food


    Sometimes the food that animes show tempts us to it and of course the obvious ones are Pizza Hut which appears in animes like To Aru Kagaru No Railgun and Code Geass. Then suddenly all anime fans went to eat in that restaurant... lol. Other food products include Ramune in Lamune anime, Taiyaki from To Love-Ru, Okonomiyaki from Ranma 1/2, Pocky from Onegai Sensei, Melon Bun from Shakugan No Shana and other products like Calpis to Lollipops. Seriously some of these animes also intoduces Japanese foodstuffs to people like us to go try it out regardless. Sometimes it also feels nostalgic to see those around...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Aika Zero


    The lots of boobs and panties anime is back again in the new season with Aika Zero. Seriously, there are plenty of ecchi animes this season and one would wonder why it is so... Such are Seikon No Qwaser, Ladies Vs Bulters, Chu Bra! and Omamori Himari. Perhaps to perk up guys to begin the New Year? In any case, Aika Zero delivers much of fan services to people to ogle on and as appetizers to look forward to more animes coming in the future...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Bad Apple Touhou


    Thought that I'd hijacked this post from Dannychoo.com because this is seriously amazing. With hits so great that people went crazy over it for weeks. One of the smoothest piece of animated I'd ever seen and this is the high quality video of it. Made from the 2D fighting game Touhou, the video looks kinda 3D no matter how you see it.



    A viral video of this animation was made by another person using 6566 frames of paper with a bit of twist. Well seriously ya got to see it to believe it. Wonder how much time is spent to make this and I guess he got a lot of time to do this...



    The video was even featured in CNN television... this shows really how fantastic it is...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Macross Frontier Seiyuu


    Watched Macross Frontier? Do you know then that the female characters of this anime is highly likely that they are drawn to look like Japanese Idols Megumi Nakajima and May'n? Well the fact that the songs sung by Ranka Lee and Sheryl Nome are indeed them respectively but there's much of a coincidence here. It is no wonder why there are so many Macross Frontier tracks sung by them both and most probably in order to tribute them, the team must have drawn them with distinct and alike features of the characters. Look at Megumi Nakajima's Music Video for the song Seikan Hikou and you'd find out that the dance moves are the same as what Ranka Lee dances... Same to Sherly Nome and May'n stage performances...lol.Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/02/

J's Chimes: Sora No Woto


    A new anime release that reminds me so much of K-On! would be Sora No Woto or translated as Sound Of The Skies. The reason being that the characters look so much alike. For example, Yui looks so much like hte main character Sorami. Rio who looks like Mio... (Even sounds the same...), etc... The only different character is Noel but then again she sounds like Yuki Nagato from Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu... Somehow animes are getting more and more similar nowadays...
