Zettai Karen Children Character CD Series

The hit 2008 anime series, Zettai Karen Children (日本名:絶対可憐チルドレン), psyched fans with the heroic adventures of The Children, three young heroines set by BABEL to lure away darkness that threatens the entire universe. If most of Zettai Karen fans psyched up from all the heroic adventures, dramatic struggles, and mischievous misfits, combining action, drama, comedy, and adventure in one absolute packaging, these character CDs made by your favorite Zettai Karen Children characters truly living it up to your fanatic senses, getting psyched up by songs provided by each character, plus a short drama never before told in the TV anime.

There are eight character songs to choose from, depending on which favorite Zettai Karen Children character you're on:

1) Kaoru Akashi (CV: Aya Hirano)


2) Aoi Nogami (CV: Ryoko Shiraishi)


3) Shiho Sannomiya (CV: Haruka Tomatsu)


4) Koichi Minamoto (CV: Yuichi Nakamura)


5) Kyosuke Hyobu (CV: Koji Yusa)


6) Naomi Umegae (CV: Ayumi Fujimura)


7) Syuji Sakaki (CV: Kisho Taniyama)


8) Oboro Kashiwagi with The Double Face (CV: Masumi Asano, Eri Nakao, and Rina Satou)


My thoughts: Two character songs per character plus a never-before told short audio drama are sure enough to psyche the entire fans once they plugged these to their nearest CD players. From The Children, Koichi Minamoto, Kyosuke Hyobu, and the rest of the Zettai Karen Children characters, these character CDs are a must have for a big fan of both the manga and the anime series.

New Lexus RX

Lexus RX and RX Hybrid

Refreshed, renewed, and ready to take on the world, the all-new, third generation Lexus RX is now all prepared to take on new challenges against popular crossovers from around the world, even the hearts of executives worldwide, do they got what it takes? Only someone lucky enough to own the all-new RX will find out, do not fret.

The first thing to consider the new RX is this crossover’s personality. First, the RX's front really reminds them of the Hyundai Santa Fe, except for the handsome looking grille and the coolest headlamps only a true Lexus fan can imagine.

Second, the new RX has two available engines, a 3.5-liter V6 engine and the soon-to-be-released-worldwide V6 hybrid engine. They'll expect having the 3.5L variant at first, and after a few months of 2009, the hybrid variant has become fully prepared to take on other cars that had hybrids, no wait, there are few hybrid SUVs in this world today, which makes the RX Hybrid feels like it’s running unopposed in the hybrid market.

Third, and the last personality regarding the secrets of the new RX, is the updated interior. The RX's monitor changed from touch screen into something that always done when using the computer, using the remote control identical to the computer mouse. For the sound system, the Mark Levinson premium audio system is a welcome for the new RX, depending on the passengers' likes and wants.

IN ADDITION, THE BEST PART IS: The all-new RX is quite a warm welcome among executives and people who wanted SUVs. No matter who drives this or uses them for such purposes such as protection convoys, family recreation vehicle, gang car, limo, or whatever you want to use it, this is no equal to other crossovers sold in the market. To tell you how the RX might be, it’s quite a key competitor to other SUVs of different classes like the Nissan Murano, Audi Q7, Volkswagen Touareg, Mercedes-Benz GL, BMW X5, Infiniti FX, Hyundai Veracruz, and so on... What is in the RX is quite good for the passenger. Now, touch-screens are out because the new RX has a remote control to access different options such as GPS, MP3, or everything the driver wants or needs. If you have enjoyed the RX, well be patient 'till the time has come for the new RX to shine.

Hayate the Combat Butler! (Hayate No Gotoku!) Character CD 1 - 12

Your favorite characters from the anime series Hayate the Combat Butler (日本名:ハヤテのごとく!) have their own songs and mini-dramas that you have not seen on the TV series. These character CDs from the hit TV series sizzle you with the fun and enjoyment for every fan and newcomer alike. There are 12 character CDs to choose from! Choose from:



  • Hayate Ayasaki (CV: Ryoko Shiraishi)




  • Maria (CV: Rie Tanaka)




  • Nagi Sanzenin (CV: Rie Kugimiya)




  • Hinagiku Katsura (CV: Shizuka Ito)




  • Isumi Saginomiya (CV: Miyu Matsuki)




  • Sakuya Aizawa (CV: Kana Ueda)




  • Wataru Tachibana & Saki Kijima (CV: Marina Inoue & Saki Nakajima)




  • Ayumu Nishizawa (CV: Mikako Takahashi)




  • Yukiji Katsura (CV: Hitomi Nabatame)




  • Hakuo Three Amiga (CV: Sayuri Yahagi, Eri Nakao & Masumi Asano)




  • Hermione (Hayate) Ayasaki vs. Magical Girl Pretty Nagi (Nagi Sanzenin) (CV: Ryoko Shiraishi & Rie Kugimiya)




  • The Hakuo Captains (Maria & Hinagiku Katsura) (CV: Rie Tanaka & Shizuka Ito)



  • MY BEST BET:
    Consider them your flavor of the month. My favourties would be Hayate, Maria, Nagi & Hinagiku because of my tastes as a butler, a maid, a wealthy hikikomori (shut-in) or a school president. Isumi and Sakuya might be OK but the Wataru-Saki tandem might be a commanding presence. Nishizawa, uh... Nishizawa gets a raw deal. The Yukiji Katsura-sensei CD is a complex (especially when your elder sister is a teacher and wanted to listen to that character CD) and the Three Amiga CD is a cheerful CD for girls everywhere. How to describe the Hermione Ayasaki vs. Magical Girl Pretty Nagi CD and the Hakuo Captains (Maria & Hinagiku) CD... Hmmm, well let me put it this way: it’s majestically sweet for fans and newbies to listen at it. Act like Nagi, dress like Hayate, fight like Hinagiku and love like Maria! Nah, just kidding, enjoy it!

    Nintendo DSi



    In 2004, Nintendo created the DS, the hand held video game system that gives gamers use the new stylus function and the microphone, then in 2006, a nimbler version of the Nintendo DS also known as the DS Lite provides the same quality as the original DS but with the cheaper price, and now, in 2009, Nintendo created their first handheld video game system with the camera to send it between friends. This was known as the DSi.

    The Nintendo DSi provides the same DS quality, like for instance, playing your favorite DS games, and the new features in store for this newest hand held gaming console. Notice the SD Card slot in the side, this is where you can show pictures and play music to this new kind of DS. On the upside, there is a camera function here, meaning you can take pictures of your friends or when you're on the go looking for adventure and best of all, you can draw your pictures you've taken for more fun factor to show it to your friends. You can also store it to your Nintendo Wii's Photo Channel and enjoy your precious moments stored on the small screen. Also, the audio player only plays AAC format songs, meaning you have to find a way to do so with your mp3 files. On the downside, the GBA slot has been removed, meaning you can't play your favortie Game Boy Advance games or using the guitar like accessory to the Guitar Hero On Tour game.

    Having the same DS quality with the quality of an MMS phone, the DSi is a new way to impress others more than gaming. It's more on taking pics and listen to your favorite music on the go.
