Ok, the idea was stolen from Colin and the name was stolen from Luka. I actually had this post already done, but because EE doesn’t have a auto save feature (which I wish they would make already), I’ve lost it all. Hopefully that will be implemented in a future version.
This week’s song is ELO’s Twilight, which was the intro song for the Japanese Dorama, Densha Otoko (Train Man). The opening scene to every show was an anime that was custom made for the show, and not part of any other anime that I know of. It had a feel like Galaxy Express 999, which is still one of my all time favourite anime.
Anyway, for those of you who don’t want to click on the wikipedia link I gave for the show, it’s basically about an Otaku who happens to win the love of a beautiful girl with the help of his friends on 2ch (Japanese), a very popular BBS in Japan. It’s supposedly based on a true story, but who Really knows nowadays how much was real and how much was made up.
Because of this, it seems like every time I hear this song, I get warm fuzzies, and I feel better. I’m a sucker for any cheesy movie, I blame the romantic inside of me that doesn’t seem to get out as much as it would like. Not to mention, this is a good song.
[UPDATED] Ok, so I found the intro for the Densha Otoko show and thought I’d place it in here. Click on the “show me more” to view it!
