Kiyo's Bath

There are a lot of people who are in the bath at the same time as me!!

You're all so dirty, aren't you...(←Are you really that much of an idiot)

Ah, I've added a postscript to the last entry.
------------------------------------------------------------------
[Original Entry]

I'm taking a bath.

I'm doing my very best to wash myself!

Since something is dirty!

=========

I'm out of the bath now.

I forgot, I forgot, I forgot!!!!

My pinky toes-------!!!!!!!

How can I do such a thing!!!

I covered my legs heavily with soap!!

Could I really be this much of a fool?


So, after a little while, I stepped out of the bath,
And while I was drying my body...

Oh!!

“Injuries Caused By Domestic Violence Surpass Those Sustained in Traffic Accidents”

It's true.

I forgot that I had already mentioned that before.


Even now when people have noticed, it still hasn't stopped...

Also, I've been deciding for a few days if I wanted to mention this or not, but I'll say it without being afraid of misunderstandings.
Maybe it's a present I've been given for getting older; the ability to have restraint.
Nah. I don't think it's to be expected for young people to be hot-headed.
But, still, I can't make up how much I owe to the fans who support us by buying our DVDs, CDs, go to our shows, and join our fanclub, as well as read this blog, with such fervor.

Always, whenever I get gifts, whenever I spend time with people who give me such energy, and exchange Japanese bank notes for me...(come on, just say 'money' already)

Depending on the person, sometimes I get things people have made by hand...
I really am so grateful, and there's no reason why anyone should go to such trouble for me.

But, with these feelings, I really, really am so very happy, so please allow me to take the energy from the solid crystals of everyone's precious sweat that you have so kindly given to me.
I really am so sorry to trouble all of you, on those days when I accept your gifts, even though I do wait for the day where I accept them.

Ah...I said it...

Also, thank you so much for all your comments!

Eh...

Sorry.

When I got back home yesterday

I immediately ate cream filled pastry

And then a few hours later

Had some melon bread.

They should be around my large intestine right about now.

Since it's the middle of the night, I added this as a postscript.

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝



If you walk around in shoes that haven't been broken in
The shell that forms on your pinky is an amazing thing


On your hand.


This is kiyo.

Do you walk on all fours?



Some people may be asking me this hackneyed question,
But really, I'm just not using the syllable “i” for the next 17 hours.

Thank you very...

Turns out like that!

I'll say it...

I lo...

Hey, hey hey!!
I'm so sorry, I have no excuse for not being able to say it! (Ah...)

No, really

This is so...irritating...

No, really (←should I stop)

Right, usually, your pinky is a wonderful thing anyway...

Right,
So, I wanted to have some delicious pastry at all costs today,
So I went to my favorite bakery in all of Tokyo and got some.
Moreover, I walked there.

It was so far...

Honestly, right before I got home,
My leg started to bother me.
I was thinking,
“I've used all my cure spells and medicine...if I don't get to an INN soon...”

I really am a reject if I think of “Dragon Quest” at times like that...
When I walked in the door, since I was wearing shoes that haven't been broken in yet,
When I took them off, they were like waguuuwaguuuu...as I thought
I don't know what I was saying, though.

But, the cream-filled pastry and




Melon bread I brought home

Are still the best.

With melon bread,
The kind where the pastry is a little dried out is very popular, it seems,
But this one is nice and moist!!

It's amazing...

Ah, no way!

Damn...

I think I'll eat them around 3 this morning!!

I won't update about it, though.

My diet
I know, I know
I'll take it easy.


Ah,
At the translated blog, I put up Comment Dependent Entry #9.
※↑I'm writing it.
(Since it seems that Ameblog has been getting a lot of email about that blog, wondering if it's someone impersonating me.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Original Entry]

This is kiyo,
With a face that looks like a failed caramel.

Dad, Mom, sorry.
This is my job, too...(not really)

But, today, I have perfect bed hair!

It's bed hair that could get me the leading role in a drama, Mercedes.

Thank you for all your opinions on my entry some time ago!
But, as for the dreams I've been having,
I'm a little embarrassed to think that they might be fortune-telling dreams somehow,
So I think I'd like it if you'd restrain yourselves from talking about that...
But, thank you.
Or, rather, since I'm looking into this stuff myself from the beginning, it's okay.
It's not that my hands are getting themselves into trouble or anything.
Also, the one typo that I erased was the one that said “that's a forecast, right?”
So, from the next one on, I'll be correcting all my errors before posting.
Somehow, it feels awful to think that people would think that I wasn't.

But,
Dreams,
With that arrangement of memories,
Or those pieces...
There are things that I didn't know!

Of course...

To make matters worse,
Since I fall asleep while playing instruments a lot,
There's a high probability that music will get mixed up in my dreams, too.

Ah, here's one more thing I thought of...
If I show up in the dreams of the other Janne Da Arc members,
Is it as a “friend”, or as a “musician” (or other performer)?

I wonder which it could be...

Eh, I guess how they see me would depend on what's most convenient at the time.

Yep, that's my conclusion.

Today, some way or another



It'll be like this.

See you later.

Last month,
I took a picture of the moon shining through the thin clouds.



It looks like the sun, doesn't it...

Since this was the first one I took out of any number of photos,
I only got part of the full moon itself,
but I like it for some reason. This picture.
The lens flare (That faint ring of light around it)
Makes it look even more like the sun.

Pictures are so interesting!

Click for Video!

I've shown you all the springiness of that dessert.
Ah...I want to eat that mabo doufu at Chen's all over again.

Of course, I also like the tofu at Marumiya, too.
Though that's entirely different.

Oh, right,
Thanks to Miss MIZUKI from RIO for leaving me a comment.
(Now I have some business to discuss.
Miss MIZUKI, my hair is getting long again.)

When I was on tour together with you,
All of you know very well of the things we went and did together.
Just through hearing about it, Mitomo-kun and shu-chan were sniggering.

I know, I know.

At the afterparty following our show in March
Right in front of my hand



It would soon have dry-cured ham

This really was

Right before I touched it!

It's a photo of the decisive moment right before contact.

Even though it was staged.

And then

The director of this whole thing



“Send it off!”

It was something of a send-off.

You don't get what I mean by any of this, huh.

I don't, either.

We get along well together then, don't we.

Thanks to everyone at Keyboard Magazine!

I mentioned this before

But beginning with the SUMMER 2009 issue of
Keyboard Magazine going on sale today

I'm doing a serialized column!

The title is

“Janne Da Arc kiyo's Living Playing Keyboard”

It's a parody on a game title.

For details, please go to the official site.

This is the first article, commemorating my misunderstanding of what 'column' means.
Even though I'm just talking and talking to the point where you'll wonder what I was thinking, I'm completely in music mode.

I want you to buy and read it.

Please!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Original Entry]

(Sorry about the title. Sorry again about the title.)

Really,
Yesterday was such nice weather,
So my washing was really, really dry!

I didn't air dry them though.

I went walking around in short sleeves for the first time in a long time.
I didn't actually go out though.
Hmm....nope.

I don't have anything planned today, either.

So, with that
Let's go to

“Chen ~Finally, we meet again. Chen mabo doufu~”

Currently, I've talked about four courses.

So,

The fifth course



A palate cleanser!

Five colors of vegetables and jellyfish pickled in a cold sweet vinegar
~An excellent cleanser~

So good, so good
I like this!

It's like sprinkling a beautiful water on the tongue that has already enjoyed
The rapture of the fried and meat dishes it has had until now.

The sweet vinegar spreads over the tongue, the cold vegetables providing a cool-down.



Then, I just can't get enough of the texture.
The crunchiness of the vegetables, and the springy texture of the jellyfish.
The crunchiness of the vegetables is really brought out in this dish.
I love sprouts, so I saved those for last.



It was served in a tall glass, so it was really easy to eat without the vinegar flying all over.
It made for a wonderful palate cleanser, served with such consideration.

And then, finally

The sixth course



Kenichi Chen's Mabo Doufu Setting (Or, With Tender Prawns)

It's finally here!

I was on the edge of my seat, and would have had my teeth chattering, had I any of those sweet cashews left for the sake of time.

In comparison to the other courses I had so far, this one doesn't really stand out in presentation, but for me, this was the one I had come here to eat!
Even saying that, it feels like I can't express enough how much I was looking forward to this dish.
I was looking forward to it so much that we actually ordered two, worried about not having enough after last orders for lunch were called.



Oh, really...
I've had this kind of tofu at other places, and really enjoyed the delicious spiciness of it.
That's for sure.
But, it's not just about the heat.
I don't think I can express it very well with just words, but I think my image of what mabo doufu is has changed with this dish.
It feels so good on the tongue that your chopsticks just can't help but keep reaching for more and more, even when you're dripping in sweat because of the spice of the dish itself.
I'm sure that it's a dish that you'd sit there and eat while saying “this is good, so good”.

I've tried mabo doufu myself countless times at home, but it goes without saying that I've never been able to make it with such amazing flavor as this.

I should say,
I didn't get very many pictures of the mabo doufu, because I was frantically eating it.
Not even of the second serving...

Myself, Manager Hara, and Manager Maruyama were all frantically guzzling drinks as we ate!

Hara is especially fond of spiciness, so he put a ton of chili pepper on his, but of course the smell of the pepper coming off of it just made it all the more delicious.

Eh, but I ate almost all of it myself though.

Then, one of the restaurant managers told me,

“We've had people who have finished an entire course of this by themselves, but this is the first time I've ever seen someone eat two.”

I was happy, but at the same time, embarrassed! The feelings were spinning around inside.

Yeah, honestly, I was happy in the end!

I felt ashamed, saying, “I love it so much, I'd put a huge poster of it in my house!”
(I'm just saying this to make sure you know, but it's not my job that's making me say such things.)

It'd be great if I could have this all the time!
Even though that's what I was thinking, what I actually said took it that far.

I'm so glad I had a second helping!

Hara-san said so too, dripping with sweat,
As we made it to the very bottom of the dish.

Our tongues still burning, we moved on to

The seventh course



Dessert! (Dim sum style)

Presented like a special plate of dim sum,
A refreshing homemade mango ice cream
~Paired with a flaky apricot tart~



The omen of something delicious right in front of me. (In the middle)
Garnished with strawberries, for some reason it felt like something out of Momotarou to me.
It had a very clean sweetness.



The mango ice cream, the moment I put it in my mouth,
It spread over it with such a flavor, such a sweet fragrance that I thought it was going to fall out my nose so I'd have to catch it with a tissue and then the coconut milk did...something or other....(I give up)

No, really,
I think desserts that use the pairing of mango and coconut milk are the best,
and this one was really delicious too.

And then!!



The tart, that looked a little...interesting,
was sweet, delicious and flaky when I bit into it...
and I can't get enough of it when it's with the mango ice cream.
I'm ordering this one again!

I can't get enough of it!



Thank you for the delicious meal.

When I was just about to leave, the restaurant manager said,
“Come back again, I'm waiting for when I can prepare a lot of mabo doufu for you.”

I'm so happy.
I think their attentiveness to their customers is amazing.

After all, I know I'll go back again.

Szechuan Restaurant “Chen”

The meal I had this time was the
Chinese Power Lunch Course
Of course, it's expensive for lunch,
But I think it's a pretty good deal for being able to enjoy thousands of yen worth of extravagant dishes at such a price.

I'll give it my best, looking toward going again!

Thank you so much for being there with me!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Original Entry]

(Since this one got really long, please read it when you're nice and comfortable.)

Somehow or other, it seems that there was a program on Chen on TV yesterday night.
I had fun watching it.
What should I say about it...?
It also had those hot and sour noodles I love.

Yesterday, coming home, I said to myself, “Let's have hot and sour noodles today.”
For a lot of reasons, I haven't really been eating hot and sour noodles very much anymore, but the place with the best was this little shop next to the place where I used to live.

They had them cold, too.

I remember the time that I went right when I had a tooth fixed, and at that time eating anything hurt; but the noodles were so delicious that I just ate them, while taking the painkillers the dentist gave me, and then it stopped hurting.

But, around the time that I finished the last appointment for my tooth, the shop closed...

It's a regret of mine,
So bad that it is probably in my top three painful memories of the last ten years.

But, the ones at Chen I had yesterday
Were really good too...

So, with that in mind...

We'll continue with Chen.

The third course



Rolled and fried in a Ivana sheet of dried tofu with shi salt ~two varieties of XO miso~

Fried food makes its appearance!

Shi salt is salt that is made naturally without machinery or chemicals, just sunlight and human hands. It really glimmers, doesn't it...



Inside the crispy texture of the Ivana tofu sits the fluffy main event of the miso.
It's very refreshing for a fried food, with the flavor of ginger wrapped deep inside.
No matter where you use shi salt and XO miso, it's delicious.
Maybe it's the same feeling as how you're able to enjoy the differences between the intro of a song live and the same intro recorded on a CD.

Of course, the main part of the song is good, too.

(Hey, someone douse this guy in cold water.)




The ginger took effect, and it was like my body was healing itself from inside.
It was so delicious!

And then, here...



Cashews! (Probably)

They're sweetly fried (roasted?) cashews.
No really, this is awful for me to say, but they're delicious!
Well, they're delicious one by one, too.

Even more than that, I happily crunched away at them, using my hands, thanks to their abundance of vegetable protein, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber!

This is a real palate cleanser, I think.

Then, the fourth course



Spicy Domestic Beef ~with red eggplant and zucchini garnish~
On the left is something like a Chinese bread, and on the right is green onion, finely grated.





The meat is enshrined with round slices of red eggplant from Kumamoto on top.
Around it is zucchini (and paprika?), and a crown of red Chinese wolfberries.
It feels like it's giving off the energy of a volcanic eruption.
Surely, you think it's quite substantial!
But, contrary to expectations...



It just comes apart with chopsticks!
You can see a whole new face of deliciousness when you see the sauce after you've cut it.
And then the spices just give it a slight flush.

A slight flush doesn't mean 'ah, hot...' but 'I like it...ah...'
That kind of 'ah'.
(Oh, what a trivial metaphor)

The eggplant, meat, and white thinly sliced onion all coming together on the tongue is a moment of happiness!



In the end, I soaked up the sauce with the Chinese bread, and finished the whole meal.
(For me, there's still sauce left in this picture.
I held back the impulse to put rice in there to soak it up with.)


Ah----

Ah--------


I still haven't gotten to the Chen Mabo Doufu yet

But could it be that here

I'll give the answer to the questions about “Tour 2005 JOKER” that I asked in this entry?!

Seriously? Yes, seriously.

So, just in case, let's review the questions again.

Question 5:

In the first song, “in silence”,
What stance does yasu begin singing the song in?

Question 6

During the individual MCs,
Before I, kiyo, started talking,
What in the world was I doing?


The answers are

Question 5

“One leg (right) in front of the other in an advancing stance”

Question 6

There are a lot for this one
But to me the right answer is

“Clearing my throat”

So for those of you who said

Who's that
It's too late or
I've already forgotten or
It's lost its vigor or
I have a dentist appointment at 3 or
Now, for the time being, I want you to leave me alone or
I'm trying to decide what kind of carryout to get

Sorry!
(Are you reading)


So,
Here once again
Could it be
Fun with search terms

(I'm really desperate to continue this one)

#153 “Master”
#154 “Seiko-chan hair”

Continuing from the store manager bird from yesterday,
This is the second installment in the “Careless Administration Practices” series.

The order of these is what's important here.

Though, lately I've had a lot of ones like that.

What's the deal?

Eh, but I'm the one looking for them.

Sorry for bringing these ones to light.



Next time, finally,
Chen's mabo doufu!!
(It's good to get you excited about it, it is my blog after all.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Original Entry]

I don't know if he's just been worried about my health after reading my blog lately
But I got an invitation to dinner from Hara.
(Ah, I haven't actually fallen ill or anything. I'm okay.)
Before, I had said, “If you have time, we should go and have Mabo Doufu together”, and he finally granted my wish.

So, with that in mind



We went to “Chen”!

Everything came in courses.


First course



Full of early summer vegetables! With fresh scallops from Hokkaido
An original refreshing salad
~With Chinese-style green onion dressing~
I like green onion so much that just hearing the words 'green onion' is enough for me to allow anything in a dish, but then it also had to be in a Chinese style dressing.
It's really good.
I just couldn't get enough of this salad.



The Hokkaido scallops also had a good flavor and texture.
Once in a while, when I put them in my mouth, they had the fragrance of celery, which made for a nice accent.



In a flash, I had eaten everything.
It was delicious.

The second course was



A soup full of flavor, with red king crab and shark fin from Kisenuma
~Paired with fluffy egg custard~

This,
Really was the best.
(At first glance, it looks spicy, but it really wasn't at all.)
With just the smell rising off of it, I knew it was going to be good.

First, I just ate the soup off the top.
Oh, it had such a complex flavor, but I decided that it was good!
It was like, what is this?!



Then, I turned from the top layer into the egg custard, which I tried blending in.
Around the time that the flavor became milder, the ginkgo and other spices took alternating roles at being the leading flavor.





Of course, I enjoyed the texture of the shark fin as well.

It really was an extravagant soup...



Of course, I finished it all.
It was delicious!
It warmed up my body just a little, embraced by the eel...


Um...

It's a little abrupt to do it here, but here's some search keywords...

#41 “Keyboard”
#42 “Manjuu Videos”

I'm not manjuu.

#49 “Miss”
#50 “Grape Daifuku”

I'm not grape daifuku, either.

#53 “Recipe”

you-san, thank you for your search.
(I don't know if it was actually him though.)


#74 “Nipples”
#75 “Plump”

That's scary, though...

#95 “Co-ed Bathing Photo”

#96 “Broken”
#97 “Mercury Thermometer”


And then when you add steam, there's real suspense.

#102 “Beauty Salon RIO”
#103 “Bookstore”

“Western Style Restaurant Joyful”

Stop referring to it like that.

RIO is a hair salon.

#119 “kiyo”
#120 “Part time job”

Oh? Does it look like I'm only doing this part time?

Me, I'm a full-time employee.
Or, rather, an official member of the band.
Take a look at me now, would you, to say such a thing.

#163 “Aaaah, Hamburger”
#164 “Pervy ○○○”

You're terrible.

Please stop licking your chopsticks like that after you've had it with the demi-glace sauce.
The road to ruin lies there.

#171 “○ngo”

Please just go.

#193 “Shop Manager”
#194 “Bird”

Is he really busy, flapping his wings like that?
There are limits to how much we accept in terms of negligent management, even in this noisy place, the “Kanko” store.

#213 “Cakes made with mangoooooo”

They're at various patissiers.

Whew...
Suddenly I want to stop.

I'll put more of my report about “Chen” in my update next time.
If it's okay, please do read it.
While saying that, I realize I'm a bad adult by thinking I should tell you to be sure to read it.

[Original Entry]

I am kiyo,
Who had a strange dream where he wrote a strange song,
And was listening to the repeats like he always does to make corrections
Then, he fell asleep, and while walking through flooded streets, keeping time,
Laughing to himself, said “This is the way home”.

Perhaps the sound of the snare drum affected my dream in some way.

I remember now.
When I was making the demo tape for “child vision”
I had a similar dream.

After that, I had a dream where I couldn't sleep very well because it was so hot,
and so I just devoted myself to keeping time.
Why, I can't remember, but the memory of it was left behind.

Those kinds of dreams where you fall asleep in the dream
Are a little like those Russian nesting dolls, aren't they.

Next time, I want to see what kind of dream I have
If I change the sound to a dinging noise.

I don't know if I feel like it's a crime of conscience,
but now I'm thinking of where I can use such a sound.

I think it'd be okay if it did nothing more than leave me with the impression of having a strange look on my face.


More important than all of that, Pachi, who is currently not in this world,
Is drinking some delicious-looking water.



Got him!

I never get sick of watching his tongue lap up water!

Sometimes, I just want to touch it with my finger, but have to hold myself back.
He's spilled a little bit, but because it's just so cute, I can't get enough of that, either!!

Actually, I do the same thing when I eat.

No, it's not that I like that I spill food while I eat, or anything.

When I find spilled food,
I always think “Oh maaaaaan!”
But I also think it's really really cute.

Just for the opposite sex, that is.

Also,

There's a limit.

Also,

It's limited to when I'm full.

Today's update...
Is my physical self somewhere in Monaco?

I mean

I just noticed that there's a part of myself missing.


Ah, right,
I already took all the comments,
But there's comment dependent update #7 here.

So then,
I think I'm going to go and collect contributions to change the Makiron logo to the one-eyed visage of the Zaku Gundam.
(Not really. I'm just going to the bathroom.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Breasts....

Ah,
No, I messed up...

Salty ice cream...

In other words, salt ice.


Also





I'm eating vegetables and fish, too.
(I just noticed that it came out looking like this.)


Oh, right!!

Somehow!!
Suddenly, I ended up with my own pet!!




It's a very, very cute Shiba Inu!!

As for its name,
I thought about it really really hard
And asked all sorts of people...

And decided on “Ponchi”!!!


Though I didn't go with a bunch of other names, like
“Shibakouen”, “Hadachi no Kisetsu” or “Inu no Free”

But no, really, I never get tired of him...



He even comes to be touched by my dirty hands!!!

Oh...I really understand how shu-chan feels now...


...


I'm okay.



More importantly （←！！！）


I just got news from the guitarist of SINCREA, TOMO-kun,
That he has followed the bassist, HIRO-kun

“I've started a blog!”

Since TOMO-kun likes stars as well, he's decorated his top page with them--
they're so pretty!

The vocalist, HAL-kun, and the drummer KAZI-kun are also starting their blogs at the same time.

You'll see how they are as individuals...
That's great, isn't it...

Fight to be the best!

I love lettuce.

It's a member of the aster family!

I didn't know that before. It didn't occur to me.

I was a little surprised by that.




It's also nice to put lettuce in fried rice.

That's the thing I've really been into lately.

I don't know if I can say that I'm into it now so much as that I've always liked it.

I wonder how long it's been since I started using the phrase “to be into something”...?

Yeah...um...
I moved the comment dependent update over to the

Sorry for making only my part of the reminiscence interview

On the Official Mobile Site

Impossibly Long.

Though it's not hard to read, now is it...

Also, sorry for correcting all of my typos.


This morning

I dreamed of a meteor shower.
Oh, I really was so happy.


That's right.
That stuffed pepper

My note that the meat that falls out of the pepper is called “stray meat” is something I actually picked up from someone else.
But it looks like the trick to doing it right is to dust the inside of the pepper with potato starch before you put the meat inside.

If you do that, then it will have something to cling to.

I'm sure that before, the ones I've had have had some sort of gelatin-like stuff in it like potato starch

When I was a kid, I had the hardship of trying to peel the meat away from the pepper...
I also have the feeling that just packing the meat tightly was never effective.



I'm in a band.

An extremely fresh memory.



Last night's dinner
A pepper stuffed with meat.

It was different, huh...

It wasn't the flavor I usually like at all...

Maybe there was too much ginger in it...

Or maybe the ratio of beef and pork was off...

But it was still really good...


Shimono Shouta-san!!

Y...yes...
Thank you so much for your comment!!

It's scary...

It's scary to force yourself to eat. I'll be looking forward to it though I'm scared.
That thing you were talking about.




Waaaah!!


Oh man!

BAN BAN BAN
Real Freeza!!! That's so funny!!
(Sorry, I'm talking about something on TV.)

It's true!

In the last update,

I forgot

“Torun Torun” (The famous model whose hair became nice and springy from a trip to the RIO Hair Salon)
(They don't actually exist)

(No, it's not that I forgot)

Thank you for bringing that to my attention!

(Thank you!) (← The person in the mirror, in the mirror)

At the house where someone like that lives, this evening

A facsimile from my mom came.
(It's not that the real thing showed up)

She sends me one every week, after FM OSAKA's “BUZZ ROCK” goes on air.

The other day, I sent one saying, “I'm so embarrassed...” and she said

“Oh, it's because you want me to stop sending them letters every week...”

Because she wanted me to send her one back that said,

“No, it's okay for you to send them...”

It's a bit of a job for the both of us, sending these facsimiles, playing around while wanting money from one another. (← That's not so bad, is it?)


So, last night,
She gave me her report on “BUZZ ROCK”.

Right, this time
They had their Janne Da Arc Top 10!

Really, I'm so grateful!

My mom
Sent me four pages of notes
On DJ Shimono Shouta's words
And the messages from the fans.

Yeah.

I'm really grateful.

Though I know that my mom

Records the program.

Since I listen to it, after all.

At the end of the facsimile

“Take care of your health. Please be better about taking care of yourself.
Please try the banana diet!!”

I'm being betrayed by everyone.

So, with that in mind,
Here I stand, my path blocked by the rook, the knight, and the gold general
Finally making my way to the glittering kingdom's “pawn”, ruled by my mother
Determined to become thin.

(...whooooa!
You said it!)

Everyone, I'm sorry for treating you as if you could be deceived before.

But

I'm eating.

Eating is eating.

Just a little.

Getting thin, too

Is coming along little by little...

But, my attachment to food remains without change.

Look, just by saying this

I've suddenly become very hungry!!!

No, but I am doing my best.

This is Fine, This is Fine
(The Chronicle of kiyo's Rebound)

So that a book like that doesn't have to come out
I'm just praying with all my might (Let's get up and move).

Ah!
The word “tadatada” is one I say with the same intonation!!

Ohhhhh!!

It shouldn't be just me who
Reading the same words twice, like names
Finds that he changes his intonation when reading them the second or third time.



Is that hard to understand?




Yeah,

Me too!

For example
“Francfranc”

The first Franc and second Franc...
The intonation is entirely different!


The names of pandas, too
“Ling Ling” “Can Can”
“Fifi” “Huan-Huan”

There are a lot of examples

“An-an” (That weekly fashion magazine)

“ViVi” (That monthly fashion magazine)

“J.J.” (A fashion monthly)

“Byon-byon” (A manual on how to stagger drunkenly)

“Guden Guden” (A Bible, published weekly, on escapism)

“Shupan Shupan” (A specialized magazine on shamelessness)

“Gopangopan” (A bulletin about plungers)

“Tupa-tupa” (A catalog for labels and labeling machines)

“Achoo! Achoo!” (A weekly pictorial on sneezing)

“Zubazazubavu-fu” (A special cookbook centered around grated yams, natto, and okra)

And so on and so on
Even though the ones in the middle beyond were fake
I had no choice!

So, with all of these
Your intonation changes when reading them, right...

Sorry for doing an update like this
In the middle of the night
When any time would have been fine!

I'm wasting my kindness on this.



Why does it always...





When I try to do it

End up like this, even though there's a place to peel the label off

It feels like having a point card with a bunch of points on it
And never actually using it.

Ah, it's here...some thunder.

The data backup festival has begun.


(No, I'm not doing it because I want to take pictures.)
