Welcome to the NHK!

True World - 真実のセカイ(shinjitsu no sekai)

If you are watching Welcome to the NHK!, you might know that Satou has made a game, but the anime didn't reveal what game he has made...

Guess what, the game will be on sale this November, accompanying the limited edition of the 6th volume of Welcome to the NHK! the manga. The three heroines are, Alice Yamada(a vampire of thousands of years old), Bashal Guligula(the princess of a galactic empire), Nie(a forest spirit)... ^^;

From the looks of it, it looks like a 18+ H-game, but since it'll be accompanying the manga, I'm not too sure about that.

Something to look forward to in November. Cool


ROUND TABLE featuring Nino - Puzzle

The opening theme of Welcome to NHK! Performed by ROUND TABLE featuring Nino, really interesting name for a band. The band was called ROUND TABLE at the beginning, then they had a guest vocalist named Nino joining in, so now it's "ROUND TABLE featuring Nino". Laughing

Wow... if this keeps up, this site is gonna turn into a podcasting site...

And here are the lyrics:

パズル

少し見上げた空 出来過ぎた日常
背を向ける度に 呟くだけ
どこに行けばいいの? そんな顔してる君と

路地裏の陰 時計の針が
止まった時間を 塗り替えて

差し延べた両手 噛み合わないパズルを
置き去りにしてた 二人出会うまで
失くしてた何か 最後のかけらを
取り戻して

いつか忘れていた 遠い日の記憶
心の片隅 重ねたなら
懐かしい景色 口癖だけは そのまま

戸惑うように 瞳を伏せて
立ち止まらないで 追いかけて

交わした言葉は カタチに出来ないけど
もどかしい気持ち 思いを伝えて
降りしきる雨と 肩を並べてく
こんなふうに

風の行方なら 君が知っている 新しい始まり

差し延べた両手 噛み合わないパズルを
置き去りにしてた 二人出会うまで
失くしてた何か 最後のかけらを
取り戻して 歩き出そう

Welcome to NHK! episode 1 - Welcome to the Project!

This is the show that's replacing Suzumiya Haruhi's usual time slot.

I didn't have a high expectation for this anime at the beginning(one of the reasons maybe is because I really liked Suzumiya Haruhi...). When I saw the title, I thought it's gonna be a show about the daily lives of some guy who's working for NHK(Nippon Housou Kyoukai, or the Japanese Broadcasting Corporation, big big broadcasting company), like Ghiblies from Studio Ghibli. It turns out the NHK here actually stands for Nippon Hikikomori Kyokai, it roughly translates to The Social Outcast Association of Japan(imagine otaku, in the extreme sense).

Yep. It's a show about otaku(I guess having "otaku" in this site's title alone is a good enough reason not to omit this anime), and the female lead looks really cute, though she too has some weird interests(Suzumiya Haruhi II!?)...

SPOILER WARNING
