Hello, readers. I feel like revisiting the anime Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai. Just nostalgia. Well, it has been a LONG while since I'd talked about it on this blog. I had finished watching it several years ago. It's just...I'm sorry. I wasn't THAT consistent on doing reviews. PLUS, I'm STILL studying and hope to END this (NOT this post and certainly not this blog) ASAP so that I can enter into the working life ASAP.
Remember this?
Enough with the background story. Let's move on...Oh yeah, I will give a rating on this anime ASAP. Hope that I can do it by this year. Well, wow, there is quite a lot of 'ASAP' s, huh? Anyway, seriously, let's get started, shall we?
WARNING:-
SPOILER ALERT!!! If you haven't watched it and plan to watch it without anyone being the spoiler, please DON'T CONTINUE READING!!!
P.S. If you want to be spoiled, well, go ahead and read it. You have been warned.
The anime cover
Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai (大図書館の羊飼い, lit. Large Library's Shepherd or The Shepherd of the Great Library) or in English, A Good Librarian Like a Good Shepherd, is adapted from a Japanese adult visual novel developed by August and released on January 25, 2013, for Windows PC. Well, it also has TWO fan discs, Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai: Hōkago Shippo Days and Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai: Dreaming Sheep. They were released respectively in August 2013 and in March 2014. There is also a PS Vita version of the original game and fan discs, which features additional contents and got released in February 2015. AND, there had been five manga adaptations based on the game published by FOUR different publishers, namely ASCII Media Works, Ichijinsha, Kadokawa Shoten and Media Factory. There are also multiple comic anthologies and light novels are available, as well as several music albums. This anime adaptation is produced by Hoods Entertainment, which was premiered in Japan in October 2014. I'm sorry that the background story drags around a little bit but the background story is quite long. Anyway, let's move on.

Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai: Hōkago Shippo Days
Daitoshokan no Hitsujikai: Dreaming Sheep
This story is set in the vast and prestigious Shiomi Academy, in Japanese 汐美学園, our dear main character (MC), Kyōtarō Kakei is a student and the only member of the Library Club. Well, the other members of that club are shadow members. Being the sole member of the Library Club, he enjoys the fact that he can read peacefully by himself. A boring but peaceful life, isn't it?
The peaceful life...Kakei's usual life...
One day, he received a text from the 'shepherd', which reads his fate is going to change, Kyōtarō encounters a second-year girl named Tsugumi Shirasaki, whom he saves at the train station. Well, he accidentally gropes her boobs. Really? The cliche again? Anyway, later, Tsugumi enters the Library Club, she thanks him, and asks for his help to make Shiomi Academy a more enjoyable place. Like Kyōtarō, Tsugumi has also received a text from the shepherd. With the shepherd's guidance, more students end up joining their group.
OK? That's bad...
Oh yeah, if you noticed, it looks like a rephrase from my previous post. Not really, I started from scratch as I had watched the story. There was one thing significant happened when Kyōtarō was young. He acquires a bookmark, which is an entry ticket to the magic library. He must show kindness and bring happiness to everyone's hearts. Why did he get it? Because he aspired to read all the magic books in the world, which were kept in the magic library.
That is the scene where he gets the bookmark...
Well, it was a good story. Well, the ending? Logical but I'm not a fan of the ending. I've known too much harem stories to agree that the ending is excellent. I wished that there is an ending where he dates one of the girls. Apparently, NOT. Anyway, BTW, the story is great, though. I admit. This story explores the psychology of each character. Anyway, I recommend you to watch it if you want to know what the 'shepherd 'in the story is or you just like a drama with some comedy. Anyway, it is that time again. Let's go!!!

Anyway, I would like to apologize for NOT posting anything last week. I was having a small test for Fluid Mechanics. It was not easy to digest a bunch of almost completely new concept. Well, BTW, here is the end of the post. Should I end it with the words, "THE END"? Never mind, anyway, thank you for coming here and God bless you. Hope that you will come to visit this blog again. Goodbye.
Good day, everybody. How is life? It had been a long time since I found the time and motivation to write it. I was too caught up with gaming and working. No guarantee that I won't have a long gap in between blog posts, just like the time between the post on AiScream and the post on BokuYaba anime . Regarding that AiScream post, it was a fun dive into how a light-hearted song using the "ice-cream" pun became a viral hit and captured the hearts of fans, even though I had a hard time completing it due to my day job's workload and trying too hard to integrate multiple AI chat suggestions. As for that Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu (BokuYaba) post back in May, it was once my really huge obsession. Remember this moment? Oops, it looks like that first paragraph might be a bit too long. Umm....whatever. It's fine, I guess. Anyway, this time, I will continue from that BokuYaba post that I published back in May to talk about a song that still gives me an emotional vibe: B...
With me finally finishing up the blog post for the song Glass Doll and Eternally Flickering Flames , I would like to talk about another anime song since I hardly watch any anime as a busy engineer nowadays. Remember her? SHE IS SO CUTE!!!!!!!! This time, it is the song that reminds me of a certain anime that left tables smashed (not really but I hit the table so many times during those times) and left me empty and lonely...yes, it is the song called Gift, the opening song of Otonari no Tenshi . OK, so let's go. WARNING:- Although this post is about a certain anime song, there might be SPOILERS from the anime. If you plan to watch the anime without any spoilers, you can continue reading or move on. P.S. If you want to be spoiled, well, go ahead and read it, you HAVE been warned. Don't blame me for it if you insist on continuing to read this post. Introductio...
Hey, people. It's been a while since I had a blogging spree on anime since January. In recent times, it has been about anime songs, which are Tutu Ballerina and Poppin' Bubbles . Also, I did have my take on the Genshin Impact 1st year anniversary fiasco on this blog. So yeah...let's move on. The cute girls... As a Love Live fan...well, I actually like Aikatsu and Idolmaster more. Yeah...ANYWAY...This is yet another Love Live franchise, which comes as a surprise to me. I started writing this while Love Live Superstar is still airing. Will write and publish a post about it after it finishes airing. ANYWAY...LOVE LIVE SU...Ahem! Sorry, it's LOVE LIVE Nijigasaki High School Idol Club!!!! (Dang it, the title is so freaking long). WARNING:- SPOILER ALERT! This post is very likely to contain spoilers for this anime. So...if you are planning to watch the anime without any spoilers, you can ei...
Hi. How has your life been in recent times? I'm a bit on edge after taking so long to publish that post on that Shigure Ui song . She already has another song featuring her loli self and her "teen" self in a "fight" with each other. We can talk about it if I want to and if I feel like it. It might or might not happen. Nod Krai... Anyway, the song I'm gonna talk about here is really unique, since it is related to a game I have been playing for years, Genshin Impact. This song is related to the archon quest in Nod Krai. I was so looking forward to the Nod Krai archon quest (before the release of the 1st Nod Krai weekly boss). I really love the song that Columbina sing so I went and did some research on it. The name is Lullaby of the New Moon (I): Somnias a Luna. Since I have gone through that archon quest, I will discuss it here. WARNING:- This song is strongly tied to...
