This is when we (EMF) have already calmed down after our most potent years of vilifying Ukigumo. I never thought I'd see a month where 2ch would be more outraged than EMF about an aspect of SR/TJ production.

You're being overly sensitive if you think those were complaints worthy of complaining about. This has been completely mild so far.

It will be a phenomenal album if you like "safe and sterile" music.

We knew we were gonna get Sports 2, that is, pop-rock anime opening music, so I'm no surprised at all. This isn't so different from Denpa Tsuushin.

They are definitely more outraged than us.
It's like 95% of them are bitching about Izawa.
They completely ignore the fact that half of the new song was written by SR.

'What Izawa usually does? Reading comics and watching anime like an otaku/hikikomori?'

What a pressure lol.
You can still claim Ukigumo doesn't know much about English, so he could not be bothered by all the complaints in EMF
But 2ch ringo board is the biggest online Ringo society in Japan. Feel sorry for Izawa.

I must have dreamed those several posts about how the music would probably/hopefully be different this time around based on those winter-themed photos and her post-earthquake comments.

Of course this anime inspired direction is not a surprise. That is worth complaining about. You've been here long enough to remember the days when the Phase 2 supporters were chastising us old timers for wanting "SS rehashes" instead of below par stuff like Variety. It would be completely hypocritical to completely accept "Sports V.2" and not to complain about it, right?

Here's a crazy idea; how about we focus on the good instead of complaining all the damn time?

In before I get a 'BUT THERE'S NOTHING GOOD LOLOLOL'-esque comment.

So this "Lips" is a brand new magazine and the issue with Ringo on the cover is the first issue ever. Hence all the advertising for it. Despite all that, it doesn't sound like there's even an interview or any sort of feature about her INSIDE the magazine. She's just on the cover. Kinda dumb.

Trying to acquire the major magazines in order to translate the interviews inside. There are tons of smaller magazines too containing interviews but I'm just unable to bother with those; I'm betting the contents are just going to be a re-hash of what the others say anyway, or are going to be relatively shallow in content. Hopefully I'll get lucky and they will be posted online. If anyone comes across online interview content, PM me with it. Thanks!

Or better yet, maybe people could stop ignoring any positive comments I make instead of focusing on the "negative" comments I do make. It's completely ignored that I like Atarashii Bunmei Kaika, but the one "negative" comment causes a bit of stir.

"Oh that ChickShhh and Maou. They called this anime music! What horrible, negative people they are even though they clearly didn't say or imply being anime music was bad!"

The sound of Izawa's stuff is commercial-worthy.

Spin that any way you wish. hahaha

I think our comments are much gentler compared with the ones on 2ch (The quotes that I made were all from 2ch).
I am sorry if you are offended spinny.
