Manabi Straight! - 07

It is the last day of summer vacation and the a tanned Momo returns to find the other girls working hard on the school festival preparations. Of course the girls ended up being stressed out and start going crazy until Mikan cries and they all calm down. Taking a nap, Mikan dreams of her beign alone and seeing the other girls cross a railway crossing. Finding herself alone, she runs around searching for others and eventually finds them.

Takako in pays a visit to Seioh Academy and wants to talk to Manabi. Walking around, Manabi tells how everything is planned out, with Takako surprised, Manabi says that she can see how it all turns out. But eventually Takako couldn’t see what Manabi was envisioning. Takako remembers from an earlier meeting with Akiou’s chairwoman that the two schools are merging and that they are canceling the school festival. After hearing Manabi’s reason for working so hard, she takes her leave and ends up calling the chairwoman a little later. Meanwhile, the girls are having fun with some fireworks and all but Mikan are in the pool. Manabi tells her to join them, but Mikan says that it’s ok, but then remembers her dream of the railway crossing. She felt she was continuing the dream, but she knows that this isn’t a dream and thinking it could go forever, and that makes her feel very happy.

The girls are now in exam period with summer vacation coming up soon. In the meantime, the student council is making preparation for the school festival and with Mei creating a website for it. Mikan and Mucchi go out to eat popsicles but Mikan is feeling somewhat guilty about not knowing that Mucchi lost the softball tournament.

So Mikan decides to study with Mucchi at her house but eventually they went out together and spent time together till morning. With the last exam over, Manabi wants to go out and celebrate, but on the way out, Mikan trips and Mucchi helps her up, just like she did when they first met.

A Lack of Posting

Some of you may have noticed that I haven’t been posting recently. Reason behind that is that I’ve been having bandwidth issues for the past week and held off from blogging because of this. My blog is hosted on my good friend neuralPLEX’s hosting and his max bandwidth is not all that large. This month alone I’ve already used probably around 1/3 of his monthly bandwidth and this is purely because I underestimated the amount of people who have viewed my otaku room post. Here is a view of how many times it has been viewed already:

That is how many times it has been viewed since I posted it and it still grows everyday. So with this, I have decided to move to my own hosting and will most likely be looking towards Dreamhost. Although if people have other suggestions then please, leave your feedback.

Also of late my current search for work is still ongoing, with some more recent ones being slightly more successful than previous ones, but I still work packing shelves. Lately I have been working nearly everyday and saving for the clutch that I need to replace in my car. Figure photography has come to a halt for the time being but shall resume soon as I’m now trying out some more indoor photography, but it looks that I may have to revert to outdoors once again. Though with the cold approaching days of Autumn, it may be a bit difficult especially since days have been cloudy or rainy. But I won’t give up so look forward to another figure review sometime this week.

ARIA The OVA ~Arietta~

Yes there is going to be an ARIA OVA. I think this is awesome news and with it being an OVA the animation quality would have to be really good. Although I have no idea on what the story will be about since the TV series covered most of the chapters in the manga, though they maybe picking something out of the more recent chapters. Either way I’ll be looking forward to this.
