暁の護衛 Trilogy Review

Akatsuki Banner

Well, as I have said in the previous post about レミニセンス, I would write another post about 暁の護衛. I have no plan actually at the beginning, it's just the hype about レミニセンス made me remember the hype about 暁の護衛 xD. 暁の護衛 actually is a trilogy, is in the process of Englishization by one of the translation team out there, and on top of that is godlike. It stands distinguishable from typical visual novels, because story of the trilogy mainly focuses on the male protagonist. Heroine routes serve to explain more about the male protagonist (either it is his 'hidden' hobby, favorite books, favorite music, etc. (lol)). Afterwards, the same formula is used by グリザイア trilogy, in which the story mainly revolves on the protagonist. How awesome is this trilogy actually? Tune in my review folks xD

Oncoming Apocalypse: レミニセンス

Banner sembarang

Hey folks! Long time no post, huh? Sorry for that, things have been busy in real life. I'm now starting my thesis, also I have my organisation thing and studies for end term exam, plus I have to plan for my journey to Paris :p. Do you folks have any recommendation on what to visit in Paris? Help me by commenting in this post :p. Anyway, are you ready for the upcoming Visual Novel Barrage end of this month? I am not wakakakaka. But hey, I just discovered a hidden jewel! I have a premonition that this title is going to be a big thing. For one, this title seems to carry the same spiritual as 暁の護衛, one of my favorite visual novel ever. Most importantly, the protagonist seems to be the same type as 暁の護衛's that is badass (a punk that quickly resort to violence, never listens to others, but obsessed in reading book in his free time (lol combination)). Apparently the レミニセンス staffs are the same as 暁の護衛's, so this going to be awesome. How will this title fare? Let's first see some information about this title :D

Change of Pace: Austria

o ye

Hello again everyone! Meet again with me, Seorang, on another post. Today, I will tell you a story of my travelling experience. The experience has been long in the past though, it was in winter last year. I just haven't been able to find a good time to write this post (or...'get in the groove' xD) until now, so I just write it now ^o^

As you folks have been able to predict from the title, this post theme will be about: Austria!! A country dear to classical music lovers and instrumental music lovers, this country has a lot of history regarding music. Unfortunately I was only able to cover Wien, unable to go to other big city in Austria called Salzburg. Nevertheless the city was very fascinating and especially since I went there in the christmas eve, I was able to experience the winter market there xD. Moreover, it was a white christmas! xD

Tune to it folks! xD

Sengoku Rance Review

Hallelujaaaaah!

It was a great adventure! After playing for hours (I think it was 20 hour-ish), I beat Sengoku Rance true route just minutes ago. It was a great game, just at the right difficulty with a very rewarding outcome at the end, great story, and very entertaining. A totally must play!

Sengoku Rance has been translated to English, so non-native Japanese speakers enjoy ^o^

Ke Mana kalau ke Eropa? Kota-kota Indah di Eropa yang Terlewatkan

Europhiaaaaa!

Halo kembali semuanya! Jumpa kembali dengan saya, Seorang, dalam pos yang berbeda dari biasanya. Biasanya saya menulis tentang visual novel, namun kali ini saya akan meulis tentang hal unik di Eropa, harapannya bisa menjadi info yang bermanfaat untuk teman-teman yang akan berkunjung ke Eropa. Atau mungkin untuk mereka yang belum terpikirkan untuk ke Eropa? Sebagai informasi tambahan, untuk berkeliling Eropa biayanya cukup ramah, dikarenakan adanya persatuan Uni Eropa. Untuk ijin masuk, kalian 'hanya' membayar sekitar 700 ribu rupiah untuk visa turis selama 3 bulan dan dapat berkeliling ke negara-negara Uni Eropa serta beberapa negara tambahan yang bekerja sama dengan Uni Eropa. Selain itu, tiket berkeliling dari satu kota ke kota lainpun cukup ramah---terkadang bisa sampai 30 ribu rupiah! (tiket pesawat! xD)

Dann, untuk tempat tinggal serta makan-minum, kalian bisa mendapatkan harga gratis (beneran ini xD) dengan berpartisipasi di CouchSurfing. Pada dasarnya visi website tersebut memang itu, membuat orang-orang dapat berkeliling dunia namun tidak berat di kantong xD

Seperti yang tertera di judul kiriman ini, saya akan membicarakan mutiara dalam lumpur. Kota-kota ini memiliki keindahan yang tidak terdapat di kota lainnya, namun sering terlewatkan karena kalah gemerlap dengan ibu kota negaranya. Apa sajakah kota-kota tersebut? Mari kita simak bersama-sama! (sori style-nya berubah nih dari penulisan biasanya, biar bacanya rada gampangan dan ga nuansa teenlit wakakakakakaa)

N.B.: foto2 bukan dari saya, punyanya orang itu. Buat tahu siapa punya siapa lakukan reverse search dengan Go*gle xD

*N.B.: The photos are not by me. For complete disclaim for those photos, please do reverse image search with Google.

Dat WTF Moment

Hi again folks! I'm going to do another random post hahaha. I haven't gotten much time to do a thorough post, so keep happy with this for now :d. This post consists many of WTF moments that I get when going through the internet, so I think it might be interesting. Who knows that you folks would also get a WTF moment wakakakaka ^o^

About the Traditional Dances of the Netherlands

Halo

So, I have an assignment from my class to say about differences between two countries. I figured that I would talk about Indonesia and the Netherlands, since it would engage the interest most (I am from Indonesia so it will be easy for me to talk about it, I suppose :p). Since all of the students are now in the Netherlands, bringing a subject about it will incite their curiosity. I figured that I would take dancing for one of the subtle difference I would talk about. So as I am researching about Dutch dances, I stumbled open some videos...and they are amazingly beautiful.

Hapy Maher Review

At last, I finished reading through Hapy Maher, the newest visual novel from PurpleSoftware. If folks remember from my previous post, PurpleSoftware used to be a powerhouse in visual novels (and also, one of the oldest creator that still survived until today!) before seeing a decline in their quality lately. Their later works, one being Mirai Nostalgia, is their reversal to their previous quality and Hapy Maher does justice to their hype. One of the best visual novel I have read lately.

Re-blog: Seri Motivasi Belajar oleh Highmuslim

Bookss

Halo kembali pembaca! Kali ini ane bakal berbagi salah satu kiriman rekan blogger yang menurut ane bakal bermanfaat bagi mereka yang sedang mengalami kesulitan belajar (ane banget ini, lagi bingung nyusun proposal skripsi wakakaka xD). 

Sang penulis, Bung Highmuslim, melakukan pendekatan yang unik dalam memberikan motivasinya. Beliau dengan cerdiknya menganalogikan motivasi belajar dengan berbagai teori seperti teori Newton dan kekuatan alam bawah sadar, sehingga memberikan kekuatan persuasif pada tulisannya. Selain itu, Beliau juga menuliskan tips dan trik dalam menghadapi berbagai kesulitan belajar, serta memotivasi kita dalam mensyukuri apa yang kita dapatkan. Semuanya ditulis dalam bahasa Indonesia yang baik sehingga sangat menyenangkan membaca tulisannya dan mudah dipahami. Jadi memotivasi diri buat nulis kiriman2 di masa datang dengan bahasa Indonesia yang baik ini setelah tulisan2 sebelumnya pake bahasa Indonesia kacau semuanya wakakakakakaka xD

Sharing: Shin Sangoku Musou 2 Soundtrack

I was seeing this video:

and I remembered how awesome the third series original soundtrack was. I have played the series from the third to six (and partly the seventh. I haven't completed it though, since I have to leave for Rotterdam before I managed to finish it -_-". Also not playing the first, seeing the video on Y*utube just turns me off -_-". I managed to get the second instalment original CD from U.K. for 2 euros, so I'm definitely playing this after getting back home xD)

大図書館の羊飼い Review

Banner yeah

Figures. Mainly I write blog as a side job from reading papers. Since I have grown sore from reading so many papers (and STILL many ahead), here I write again another post in the meanwhile folks ^_^

Well, talking again about visual novels, my all time favorite company is オーガスト. Some old readers might remember that フォーチュンアテリアル is my favorite title ever released and this one is another work from the same company. Coming with a different formula from August past releases such as 穢翼のユースティア, フォーチュンアテリアル, and 夜明け前より瑠璃色な, by returning the theme similar to their roots (月は東に日は西に ～Operation Sanctuary～ era), how would this visual novel fares to their superb predecessores?

OSU (Mohon tidak Mengganti Huruf Depan dengan Huruf Vokal Lain)

osu yeah

Ehem. Berikutnya ada sebuah resensi untuk sebuah permainan video. Permainan ini cukup menyenangkan dan adiktif, terutama bagi mereka yang gemar bermain gim ritmik. Ide gim ini bermula dari sebuah gim konsol bernama Ouendan! atau Elite Beat Agents untuk Nintendo DS. Apa itu Ouendan? Ouendan itu yang orang2 pake gakuran buat dukung tim sewaktu pesta olahraga itu loh. Ane sendiri juga kurang paham sebenarnya hahaha. Intinya gim ini menggunakan basis dari mesin Ouendan! atau Elite Beat Agents, kemudian Taiko, dan Catch the Fruits (lali aku jenenge, tapi intinya kayak gitu gimnya), dan O2jam. Jadilah sebuah gim untuk segala OS komputer bernama: Osu!

Lemons Problem: The Problem of Lemons

Lemon gan?

Halo pembaca! Berhubung ane udah lama ga ngobrol pake bahasa Indonesia jadi di pos kali ini ane akan pake bahasa Indonesia! Hahaa. Bahasa Indonesia ane udah mulai kagok ini gara2 jarang dipake. Mijn Indonesisch is al niet goed (asal pake bahasa asing padahal salah2 wakakakakaka xD)

Pelajaran terakhir di institusi ane memberikan sebuah pengetahuan baru yang unik. Di dunia psikologi keuangan, hal ini terkenal dengan nama "The Lemons". Apakah "The Lemons" itu? Di pos kali ini ane akan menganalisis fenomena ini secara...secara...secara opo iki? Pengetahuan awam dicampur dengan opo sing terlintas di kepala wae dah hahahaa. Karena bukan penelitian empiris jadi jangan dijiplak loh kawan-kawan (kayak analisisnya keren wae xD)

Natsuzora no Perseus ~The Brave under the Summer Sky~ Impression

Haiya Perseus

Today was my free day and so I decided to spend some of it by reading a visual novel out of the shelf. My choice happens to be Natsuzora no Perseus ~the Brave under the Summer Sky~. Made by minori a year ago, I have touch the visual novel just for a while a month ago IIRC before suspend continuing it since I was focusing on completing Rewrite at the moment. Not a while ago I browsed the internet and heard good things about this game. Apparently it won the Best Graphic of 2012 by Getchu (a widely known visual novel database, red.) and that nailed my interest in reading this title.

Rotterdam: Internet Speed

Daradam daradam

Hi again folks! Now I will start a new series of posts. As I have moved to Rotterdam recently I think it would be informative to post little things about this town. At least hopefully it would be helpful for those who are planning to go here (I'm looking at you, other F*B U*M students!).

This first post will be covering one of my interest: The internet speed. Rotterdam is a pretty quiet town, so you can expect to spend a lot of your time in your room. Not also that you can expect to have a small amount of job requiring you to work remotely! Almost everything is digitalized here, from ordering food even to shopping for groceries (later, will be delivered to your home). School assignments even are mainly posted and to be worked on the internet. Also, if you are getting homesick, you can use internet to watch your local TV, internet, or video call to your wife or husband. A neat jack of all trades, huh?

Finished Rewrite! and Review

At long last, I have finished reading Rewrite. It was really long, took me about 4 days of stop and continue reading. The work was perfect though. It always hook me up to continue reading not long after I stop and after I start it took me hours before I can stop reading. Another masterpiece from Key.

The Grandiose of Visual Novel Opening

Hi readers! After AFK for weeks, I would like to tell you all one of my favorite time wasting on my free time. It is quite unusual I believe; watching visual novel openings. Mainly I watch them to analyse the effects and music people are using in constructing them which then I try to implement them to hone my movie editing skill. Lately things has been becoming more addicting as more amusing and entertaining openings, with either incredibly good effects or nice music or even odd-but-strikingly-funny sequences, come arise. I believe it would be more feasible to show you, so here is my list of recommended openings!

Pretty Much Basic of Improvisation

Hello folks! Guess it's time for me to post another tips, huh? Alright, now I will post another tips that I get from life. This is a tips that will be very interesting for musicians out there, I think. Ever think how cool it is for us to arrange and playing recomposed songs, right? As like how cool it is to convey our own interpretation of a music to the listeners?

Will you be the next Youtube star? You decide! xD
