#September11, 23 years since my personal memorial day. May the sea bring us peace, not division among different values on different continents.

The latest in-app story of Hasunosora has revealed how much Sayaka exposed herself to Tsuzuri even after the latter's graduation behind the scenes so that Sachi could catch up on Sayaka through Tsuzuri. I bet Tsuzuri/Sayaka shippers are bursting of excitement.

Screenshot of the episode 7 of 105th class from the in-app story in Link Like LoveLive, the game app for Hasunosora school idol club, where Sayaka says to Tsuzuri as "it was you from whom Sachi-senpai collected information"

Screenshot of the said in-app story where Tsuzuri responds as "it's Sachi... It was Sachi who worried about you, Saya. And of course me too"

When an autograph session for those who purchased the blu-ray was live-streamed last month I burst out laughing thanks to Tsumutsumu speaking "wow will all these be delivered to everyone? Let's leave my fingerprints a lot" as if drunk as usual. I love you as long as you are you.

The blu-ray of the last spring's AssaultLily concert was finally delivered. Can you believe that two top fav actors of mine signed on it and one of them even wrote my name solely for me? I'll never give it to anyone even if I die.

Let me unpack it and play the video when my friend stays my home.

If I am lucky I'll be trying korean McD's for the first time in my life next weekend, during a business trip. What if not? I'll be tweeting f*ck.

Aiming to save transportation costs I walked for a few kilometers to Gokokuji (護国寺) station after supper and discovered a beautiful buddhist temple of the same name as the station. I paid my respects there as a christian. Prayer for peace shall be universal regardless of religions, right?

Failed to comprehend the description no matter how many times I read it. I might not be a lily yet.

Donuts with strawberry jam on a plate titled as "I-want-to-be-a-lily-too donuts" upon a menu sheet describing the same on a table in the café; the description reads that it's a dessert to reproduce a contract with a gunsword "charm" using one's own blood by regarding a donut as a magicrystal core

A magisphere and neunwelt tactic are invisible during the stage plays and are represented only by light effects and actors' performance. I've never imagined it is actually nine meatballs!

Enjoyed my supper time at a café celebrating AssaultLily anime's 5th anniversary after work. Perhaps Mai wears a cat ear hat to attract Tazusa? How adorable.

I've become a boosted lily (強化リリィ).

Uhh, mister? You're standing on the middle of the platform as if you're nothing unusual, but aren't you in fact abandoned parts of platform gates? What are you doing here?

Waguri-san (和栗さん)?! I didn't know you were a common noun!

I do not categorize myself as a fan of GirlsBandCry. My pride as a resident of downtown Kawasaki has made it so. bsky.app/profile/char...

Japanese really love pachinko gambling—even those in a care home for people with disabilities are not the exception when a charity fair is held.

What?! Did my house hit a record high humidity of 93% while I was out?! Is it natural in a waterfront city...?

I must amend all of my schedules written such as VR concerts or VR talk shows in my google calendar. There are more than several hundreds to rewrite...

Charlie Yuki🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼 @charlieyuki.bsky.social · 10d

I believed that a term of VR meant mocap 3DCG until now. My understanding was that it was a virtual world controlled by someone in reality. However, my friend pointed out it was wrong and VR was a technology to dive into a virtual world by blocking a real view. All my posts about VR were wrong!

In my understanding Asakusa in Tokyo has been solely where an AssaultLily fandom market takes place for years. Sensoji Temple? I know there are many americans led by a tourist guide like a group of a hen and ducklings visiting the temple on the other side of the road, but it's not my business.

Last monday I was an empty-headed collector of AssaultLily fanfictions at the fandom market. As AssaultLily fanfics are rarely supplied commercially, it's vital for my mental health to attend this festival held periodically. Big thanks to every creator.

At first I was motivated to have supper in the mall Kawasaki Azalea to pay for its cross-promotion that a GirsBandCry reward was given per purchase of 1k yen. But I couldn't find what I wanted to eat and ended up going to McD's outside the mall. This collaboration isn't for me, unfortunately.

Many fans of Hasunosora are fascinated with their new qipao-style dresses. That's okay. They are beauty personified. What sucks the most is that all fans call the outfits as "china dress" or even "china" in short. It's not chinese. It's manchurian. Listen, you klutz!
