Just a compilation of Japanese curries made from different brands of curry roux (i cheat!).

First Look: Fall 2013 Anime
Fall season's finally started! Here is my list of seasonal anime for the fall. Which anime is in your list this season? Have any recommendations? Comment on below!
Aquaman Design by Kris Anka
This is me shamelessly advertising my art. I didn't want to use other artist's work. Aquaman has orange in him so it counts for fall!

Last thoughts: Summer 2013 Anime
My Summer 2013 season is finally over.The warm days are gone and the windows are closed to keep the cold from coming. These are my last thoughts about them. I won't be putting a music category as I'm not very good at pointing that stuff out.

Fried tofu in spicy sauce!
I was inspired by the Chinese dish, mapo tofu! I would actually want to try cook it but we don't have the important ingredients! Either way, still wanted to eat some tofu so I made this. It's quite similar to this recipe .

Chinese-style Eggplants!
This recipe is based on papadesuyo777's Hot-plate Eggplants! Since I don't have several ingredients from his recipe I omitted and added some stuff and it was very tasty! I also steamed the eggplants instead but papadesuyo777's method will let the eggplant retain its colour. If you want to try the eggplants with a more traditional and authentic taste, here is papadesuyo777's video!

Hamburg Donburi!
Some Filipinos who frequent in Tokyo Tokyo should have heard of this rice bowl! It's basically a loco moco with nori on top. As there are no Tokyo Tokyo's where I am, heck I'm not even in the Philippines! I have made my own very convenient version to enjoy!

3. While your burger is cooking, heat the olive oil in a small pot. Add the onion in and when it's aromatic, add the mushrooms.

Hope you like this recipe!

Spring 2013 Anime
Okay, I broke my promise! At least I'm posting it in the weekend (lol). Anyway, next week my spring 2013 watchlist will be over and I'd like to share you what I'm watching.
Haiyore! Nyaruko-san W
Last year in spring, I finally decided to following seasonal anime consistently. Along with Sankarea, I started following Haiyore! Nyaruko-san. It has really good art and it's very funny! There are a few references I would watch at times, too. I like Nyaruko's voice too. Lots and lots of Kamen Rider references for enthusiasts. I also use this ref guide
http://nyaruref.blogspot.ca/ .
Hentai Ouji to Warawanai Neko
Since 2010, I've been quite a fan of the moe genre. Although as I read more books and watch more anime, I realize that a good story cannot be done chock-full of cliches. At least this anime is one of those who usually stands out. The character designs of Kantoku are pretty and J.C. STAFF successfully put it out in animated form. This story is good for moe enthusiasts and it has a bit of cliche here and there but the plot, characters and eye-candy could keep you interested. Oh, and the OP and ED themes are addictive!
Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai.
I've been waiting 2 years for this! Very nice art and interesting characters gives for good fun! Obviously the reason I watched this is because of Kirino (tsundere) and the otaku culture being a big topic! I always enjoy the first season's episodes and I always look forward to each episode every week! I also love the fact that clariS is singing the OP theme again!
RDG: Red Data Girl
This and Sasami@Ganbaranai are the only series that I have watched with Japanese folklore as central topic. I really like this anime because they leave you interested for the next episode in my opinion. The fact that the characters' attitude don't exactly exaggerate makes it pretty realistic. I think it's very lovely! I actually picked this anime because of Saori Hayami and P.A. WORKS!
Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru.
It's quite different from Haganai, where the main character does want friends and in this anime, the main character doesn't care if he doesn't have friends. It has a typical to-the-rescue group but it makes it unique and has good character progress. It really does paint in the details of each character's emotions and their attitude. This anime has three main characters; all quite different but in a way, are loners. The humor is very satirical.
You know, my writing sounds even more serious than I thought! I like all the anime I'm following right now and they all have pretty art! Looking forward for Summer 2013!

1. Heat sesame oil in a frying pan on medium heat.
2. Add garlic in the pan and stir fry until aromatic. Add the ginger and stir together.
3. Add onion. When all ingredients are aromatic, add the beaten egg. When the edges in the egg are beginning to cook, add in the rice and mix thoroughly.
4. Serve with your favourite side dish and enjoy!
You can tweak the ingredients to your liking. Add in your favourite ingredients in between the steps!
Today, I want to share a basic fried rice recipe that is tasty. You could eat by itself but I recommend you to just use it as a base. I'm planning on posting 3 other fried rice recipes that uses this recipe as a basis. The recipes I will post will usually feed 1-2 people.
I promise I'll post my Spring Anime 2013 list this weekend!

Winter 2013 Anime
Though the Winter Anime Season is almost over, I would still like to post in the anime I am following!
Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai NEXT
I watched the first season last 2011 and I loved it! So it's a given why I would put this in my list. The anime is a lot of fun to watch and makes you laugh time to time. The art I would say is lighter than the first season's but I prefer this style since it has better quality.
Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo?

Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo?
Good show to watch if you like cute girls and fantasy and fighting. It's really cool! It's about problem children from different timelines in earth sent to another world by the Black Rabbit. Shiroyasha makes me crack up! Especially since she has the same voice as Kuroko Shirai!
Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
Is what OreShura stands for. It's the typical moe harem I could say but it's a must-watch for people who are out of moe anime to watch. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the anime. The cute art and the characters make the story good. Himeka <3 font="">3>
Sasami@Ganbaranai
To be honest, when I watched the first episode everything in it wasn't I expected. I was blown away though. It's probably the zaniest anime on my list but it is AWESOME.
Tamako Market
I saw the promo with Tamako in the beginning of the video last season. If you want to watch a laid-back anime or finding something a little like K-ON! this is for you. It's about the life of mochi maker's daughter with her friends and a talking bird.
So along with the two-season long anime from last fall (Sakurasou and Little Busters!) That makes it 7 animes I'm following this season. Spring is really soon and I'm looking forward to watching sequels of Haiyore! Nyaruko San!, OreImo and a few new ones. I LOVE OREIMO.
