Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni
Since the plot of Higurashi by 07th Expansion involves an enlessly repeating June, it is sometimes compared to the endless Newfag Summer of 07.

Happy Couple
Those were the days An old, forgotten /a/ meme that came from Higurashi fanart of Tsumihoroboshi-hen, the second "answer" arc of the game and the most loved arc of the whole series. At the conclusion of the arc, K1 and Rena had an epic night fight atop the roof of the town schoolhouse (commonly known as the Heaven or Hell fight) - most of the fanart of this duel showed K1 and Rena enjoying the heat of battle, though the fight was quite serious and the tone of the story quite dark until this point. Because K1 and Rena grew to love one another (especially in this particular arc, where Mion got shafted) Anonymous interpreted the fight as an expression of sexual intercourse, and prior to the anime's airing much interest was generated in the final fight. Because of their history of bloody murder and large body counts, the duo started to be called a "Happy Couple", because despite fighting one another their love was so intense they couldn't help but smile.

Hanyuu
Stop posting blank images! A character from Higurashi who can only be perceived by Rika Furude. As such, a relatively unfunny and forced meme has arisen in which users post pictures of Hanyuu, and engage in small shitstorms about posting blank images/backgrounds or something similar (implying Hanyuu is in the picture, but no one can see her).

The reverse version occurs when someone actually does post a totally blank picture, usually with the filename of "hanyuu"(or some variation thereof). People then start posting as if the blank images had non-worksafe pics of Hanyuu, usually replying with the promotion meme.

Both of these previous trends stopped as soon as Hanyuu became visable and tangible in the anime.

She is sometimes referred to as "Piss-tan" in an effort to troll Hanyuu fans. The origins of this name stem from a picture showing a

    “Even a hunter cannot kill a bird which flies to him for refuge.” During an interview this was Chiune Sugihara’s response to the question of why he would risk his career and life to rescue people he had no connection to.

    The film The Seven Samurai is a classic example of late 16th century samurai engaged in warfare. Throughout the film we are able to get a real sense of what values samurai hold, as well as some techniques used in battle. The film also provides some insight into how a samurai might define himself as a samurai. Though the seven samurai came from different backgrounds and are vastly different people, they share one common trait which is the label of samurai.…

    Video game composers are in many cases the unsung heroes of the video game franchise. Many people don't realize that the best games happen because of that sensational feeling when you fight off a horde of difficult enemies only to be elevated by the euphoric symphony of a master composer. Koji Kondo is one these people, only he has received much recognition for his many achievements. Most famously known for his role in the composition of Legend of Zelda and Super Mario music, Koji Kondo is a world renowned composer and a household name in the video game industry.…

    Josui in her passage is explaining that advertisers use famous celebrities to promote their products. The author supports her claim by first explaining her evidence on how companies use famous actors to promote certain products. She continues by saying,”This kind of marketing is misleading and insults the intelligence of the audience.” The author’s purpose is to get the audience to see how companies use actors and famous people to promote products in order to get the audience’s attention to checkout the actual product instead of listening to a famous person talking about it on TV. The author establishes an angry tone for this passage because she wants the audience to see that you don’t need someone telling you how good the product is when you could go see the product for yourself.…

    Background and Facts: The Japanese Navy, on December 7, 1941, attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the U.S. Congress declared war on Japan that same day. Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor came with a great degree of consequences. One of those consequences was Executive Order 9066 which gave the Secretary of War the right to designate “military zones” where the government had the authority to exclude any person or group that was thought to be a possible threat to the United States and its war with Japan. Unfortunately, many of the military zones were parts of the United States, where many American citizens, which happened to be Japanese, lived.…

    When I first heard the title and the plot of the film (excluding the names of the characters), I thought okay this is about a guy and how he spend his 500 days of summer. Summer that is the season I mean. But when I watched the film for the first time, that is when I realized, Summer is a name. Name of the love interest of Tom Hansen, the main actor. I like the way they did with the title, that it seemed it has a dual meaning.…

    Heiji Monogatari Emaki

    • 816 Words

    I visited the Virtual Museum of Japanese Arts, and one of the features I appreciated the most were the scroll paintings. One such painting is the Heiji Monogatari Emaki. It was the warrior class which formed the core of society during the Kamakura period. Thus, many hand scrolls depicting war tales were produced. The Heiji Monogatari emaki is among the best-known examples of this genre. There were several versions, though only parts of these remain. They are based on the Tale of Heiji, which describes the strife between Taira no Kiyomori and Minamoto no Yoshitomo and describes the so-called Heiji Disturbance of 1159. This was when the Minamoto clan was defeated, and the political dominance of the Taira clan was established. Emperor Nijo had been kept captive in the imperial palace by the military forces of the Minamoto. This scene (below) shows Emperor Nijo escaping to the residence of Taira no Kiyomori in Kyoto’s Rokuhara district. Taira warriors are greeting an oxcart that bears the emperor (Heiji Monogatari Emaki).…

    Emperor Hirohito was Japan's 124th emperor who is vital to the history because he played a major role within world history. He was known as the Showa Tenno emperor. Showa is translated into "enlightened peace" and Tenno is translated into "heavenly sovereign." This is exceptionally ironic because he was the emperor during numerous disasters (Hirohito, 2005).…

    The series was first created by Nisio Isin as a series of short stories for Mephisto magazine. While his previous Zaregoto series featured large casts of characters, each Bakemonogatari story tends to introduce only one new character. The previously published stories, and some new ones, were eventually collected in two volumes as part of the Kodansha Box launch titles on November 1, 2006 and December 1, 2006. The first volume contains three stories titled Hitagi Crab (ひたぎクラブ?), Mayoi Snail (まよいマイマイ?) and Suruga Monkey (するがモンキー?); the second volume comes with two newly written stories titled Nadeko Snake (なでこスネイク?) and Tsubasa Cat (つばさキャット?).…
