Hello~! Thank you for all the SK8 the infinity informations and updates! I just want to ask if you have the scanned copy of Langa's Birthday Postcard letter?

P.s sorry i had to ask twice, i forgot to put the hashtag

#sk8 #sk8theinfinity

Uhh... I was going to say yes definitely.... but then I checked my posts and it looks like I only ever posted this version that's just a picture and not a scan.

I'm sure I scanned it when I got it but... the scan was on my external hard drive that I dropped and broke and so I can't access it anymore. 😭😭😭😭😭 Damn me and my failure to back up my files.

Unfortunately I sent the card to another fan after that so I don't have it to scan it again.

(They're just showing the episodes on niconico, Hatanaka will be commenting as it airs on instagram live)

This time they just read the answers to the poll questions.

Just quickly so people know what happened here's the official answers: (They discussed them more but I'll write it up more in a bit.)

Who is the most fashionable character? 3 Cherry 2 Miya 1 Reki

If you were to be in the passenger seat, who would you want to drive? (Assume they all have drivers licenses!) 3 Shadow 2 Joe 1 Kikuchi

They’re all hosts! Which one would you pick to serve you? 3 Langa 2 Joe 1 Reki

You’re forming a comedy duo! Who would you want to be your partner? 3 Langa 2 Shadow 1 Reki

Out of these 8 candidates, who would you trust the future of Okinawa to? 3 Reki 2 Cherry 1 Adam

They had a prerecorded question from Miya's voice actor who asked them "If everyone was the same age as Miya who do you think he would be friends with?" and Nagatsuka's answers were 3 Reki 2 Kikuchi 1 Sketchy

They're holding an official tour of Okinawa for infinity week.

There are two options.

The cheaper plan is just a hotel stay and ticket to the event.

The premium package also has a tour of places from the show.

It's at the double tree which I believe is the hotel that is in the show too.

Bucchigiri?! New Utsumi Hiroko Anime

Mappa just announced a new anime they're making directed by Utsumi Hiroko called Bucchigiri?! It will be releasing in January of 2024.

It's an original anime about delinquents in a futuristic Arabian nights setting.

When you make a true wish, 1000 nights will answer.

Synopsis:

When former best friends Tomoshibi Arajin (灯荒仁 ともびしあらじん ) and Asamine Matakara (浅観音真宝 あさみねまたから) they get wrapped up in a battle between strong warriors...

Then the figure of a large genie appears...?!

Note from Utsumi:

This is the first time "Bucchigiri?!" is being seen.

I wanted the teaser visual of the two of them to seem like it was just as if the world of Arabian nights had leaped into the future… but it doesn't seem like that at all. The image and the trailer are both completely incomprehensible but that's what this work is!

……that's what I decided at least.

Even the setting is in shambles.

It's called "Bucchi" for short. We're going to be working hard so please keep us in mind.

TN:

Tomobishi Arajin, meaning: Lamp Aladdin

Asamine Matakara, meaning: light compassion true treasure (I'm guessing more on the surname. Sorry)

Bucchigiri is a hard word to translate because it can mean to win by a large margin or to be torn into pieces, pulverized, to be in shambles, etc... Basically it's supposed to imply they're fighting and beating each other up but it can be used both ways and it's used both ways in this announcement...

Langa seeing Reki as a skater

Director Utsumi Hiroko Interview

Q: What did you keep in mind while creating episode 7 as Reki’s mood gradually darkened?

Since it’s summer, it started with really bright colors. It starts with a bright clear summer sky and as Reki’s mood drops it becomes more and more cloudy and the colors become dimmer. Since we wanted to make it rain in the final scene we didn’t want it to rain at all in the episodes before it. In the scene where they’re under the overpass, Reki is in the shadows and Langa is in the light. We wanted to naturally create a boundary between the two and not just rely on their words and expressions but use the whole screen to show Reki’s emotions.

Q: Was that overpass also a place you found while location hunting?

There’s no star but it’s a real location. So the layout of light and shadow was from the location, not something we made up. When Langa finishes the jump he’s out from under the overpass so he naturally goes out into the light but since Reki can’t reach it he can’t leave the shadow either. I really like that scene since it uses the light and shadow of the actual location.

Q: How did you show Langa’s expressions?

Langa’s facial muscles are pretty much dead so he’s expressionless… (lol). But as he spends time with Reki they slowly loosen up so I think they naturally get pulled out of him. We made them based on him being expressionless as the standard. But Langa unexpectedly ended up showing more facial expressions than we originally assumed and he kept showing expressions that weren’t on the character design sheets so Langa’s expressions always troubled me (Painful laugh).

Q: Langa complimented Reki in episode 10, but did Langa realize that Reki had an inferiority complex?

He’s pretty slow so I don’t think he realized. For Langa, I think this was the first time he’d ever fought with a friend who was important to him. Since he didn’t know what to do, he asked his mother since she was the only person he could go to for advice, and since she told him “Being honest about your feelings is best,"that was just him putting her advice into action. He didn’t think he had to do it "for Reki,” he just wanted to express his own feelings.

Q: And I think those feelings reached Reki. 

Reki realized that Langa was the only one who had seen him as a skater the whole time, from the very beginning, and I think that’s what made Reki the happiest.

Hetalia World ☆ Stars - Chapter 455 Original Translation: spaghettifelice // donamoeba Scanlation: donamoeba //loaf // jammerlea 

[justa-fangirl]

Songs that went viral on the internet at some point from the beginning to current. I tried to pick some where it wasn’t so obvious where they were from but some are kind of obvious.

You don’t know how hard it was to find the names to some of these songs. You should see my search history… “Really depressing Belarusian song that sounds like it’s from the 80′s” “Russian song about spinning…” It’s a lot of that kind of stuff. It’s extremely frustrating to hear the words in another language in your head but you just cannot begin to spell them. I hope I might have helped some of you guys out if you heard one of these songs but had no idea how to ever find it again.

Anyhow enjoy! Keep track of how many you know give yourself a point for each one. >>> 0/21
