Merry Christmas!

Now let's go to celebrating Christmas! It's no good just reviewing anime, manga and game I fond most, right? I'm Muslim so I only give you some information about Christmas, and post some Pretty Cure Series' Christmas (from Yes! to Suite, I'm the Pretty Cure fans since first series) enjoy! (below is from wikipedia.org)

Heartcatch Christmas in Episode 44! Erika becomes cosplayer here.

Christmas or Christmas Day (Old English: Crīstesmæsse, literally "Christ's mass") is an annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ, celebrated generally on December 25 as a religious and cultural holiday by billions of people around the world. A feast central to the Christian liturgical year, it closes the Advent season and initiates the twelve days of Christmastide. Christmas is a civil holiday in many of the world's nations, is celebrated by an increasing number of non-Christians, and is an integral part of the Christmas and holiday season.

Yes! 5 Episode 45 Christmas... er... date?

The precise day of Jesus' birth, which historians place between 7 and 2 BC, is unknown. In the early-to-mid 4th century, the Western Christian Church first placed Christmas on December 25, a date later adopted also in the East. Theories advanced to explain that choice include that it falls exactly nine months after the Christian celebration of the conception of Jesus, or that it was selected to coincide with either the date of the Roman winter solstice or of some ancient winter festival.

The original date of the celebration in Eastern Christianity was January 6, in connection with Epiphany, and that is still the date of the celebration for the Armenian Apostolic Church and in Armenia, where it is a public holiday. As of 2011, there is a difference of 13 days between the Julian calendar and the more generally used Gregorian calendar. Those who use the Julian calendar or its equivalents thus celebrate December 25 and January 6 on what for the majority of people is January 7 and January 19. For this reason, Ethiopia celebrates Christmas, both as a Christian feast and as a public holiday on what in the Gregorian calendar is January 7.

Daisuke and Love in Fresh Christmas in Episode 45... since the storyline of Fresh almost at the end, it becomes sad Christmas, revealing their Pretty Cure identity to public.

The popular celebratory customs associated in various countries with Christmas have a mix of pre-Christian, Christian and secular themes and origins. Popular modern customs of the holiday include gift giving, Christmas music and caroling, an exchange of Christmas cards, church celebrations, a special meal, and the display of various decorations, including Christmas trees, lights, nativity scenes, garlands, wreaths, mistletoe, and holly. In addition, several closely related and often interchangeable figures, known as Santa Claus, Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas and Kris Kringle among other names, are associated with bringing gifts to children during the Christmas season and have their own body of traditions and lore. Because gift-giving and many other aspects of the Christmas festival involve heightened economic activity among both Christians and non-Christians, the holiday has become a significant event and a key sales period for retailers and businesses. The economic impact of Christmas is a factor that has grown steadily over the past few centuries in many regions of the world.

What is Hibiki think about in Christmas?

I will paste Suite Christmas later if the review is on. Like Heartcatch, it's about Miracle and Danger! Why? Miracle because of title, Danger because singing The Sorrow Melody, Noise's true form revealed (black dragon) and stoned citizens! I will paste another anime's christmas scene later on.

And lastly, Merry Christmas 2011!

Last Tuesday, my class in school play games at English Lesson. And one of the game chosen was:

Pretty Cure on S.H. Figuarts

I heard about it that Bandai also release S.H. Figuarts to Pretty Cure. So, I want to review this. 

What is S.H. Figuarts? (Source from wikia.com)

S.H.Figuarts (S.H. フィギュアーツ S.H. Figuātsu; Also called Super Hero Figuarts) is a collection of posable figures created by Bandai. These figures features characters from various Anime series and Tokusatsu shows created by Toei and other animation companies and were aired in TV Stations across Japan.

As of 2011, Bandai almost released all the S.H.Figuarts versions of the Pretty Cure characters, excluding Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash Star, Yes! Pretty Cure 5 and Suite Pretty Cure♪. Some of them were featured in Bandai's Tamashii Website while some were released as Tamashii Nations Exclusives.

Inspector Parker

I don't like Parker's design, it's too ugly for me.

If I review puzzle game, then now for solving mystery game. One of this is Inspector Parker! This game was realeased November 12 2003 and published by I-Play.

There is the story. There are something foul's afoot at Misanthrope Manor, and it's going to take a detective with a keen eye and a knack for suspicion to solve this mysterious puzzler. As the detective (or something), you will need to help Inspector Parker solve the mystery of the Manor, where seven potential suspects, weapons, motives, victims, pieces of evidence and body disposal methods must be sorted through to solve the crime. Using logic and intuition to piece together the puzzle- is the key to solve the mystery.

To make it more clearly, let's review. Click the right one as shown on the right. If you click the wrong one, the thunder sound will appear and the time will increase. If you click wrong enough, game over, it means you failed for solving mystery. Well, each game also has failures, didn't they? But if the mission was complete, you will show the suspects and victims, and the next mission appears. 

That's only what I know. Oh, there was few things you should know. The music... its the mysterious. About the Mode, it's divided into two, Career and Puzzle. I won't say much, but there is Tutorial for starter to get enjoyed in this game. As usual, there are 3 difficulties, but Hard changes into Deadly, so there are Easy, Medium, and Deadly and to choose them, scroll  like when you are in Internet. To choose Timed and Puzzle was also scrolling, choosing which mode you like most. For starter like me, I recommended Easy. Only chose Medium when you get enjoyed and Deadly when you are pro, right?

In overall, it's fair game, but it's good if the character's face more beautiful (some are ugly like Parker), but there are also Inspector Parker Betrapped if you want (but no Betrapped game though in my laptop), Parker's design is very nice. Anyway, why you then spend your time by playing this game if you want to be a detective or like mystery game? It will be big favor for I-Play.

Tropical Swap

I think I continue review my game now, let's review about Tropical Swap. This is interesting game, puzzle but get  to recongnize blocks and rearrange to get animal image. Since it's so fun, I will review this which is realeased by Crystal Squid.

Let's see, since it's rearranging game, you must rearrange it correctly to become correct image to get points. But, there also has the animal that must need 2 piece in row or 3 piece in column. It's a lot of fun, isn't it? When the yellow triangle wth ! appears, it means the new piece will about to appear in that row. If the stacks gets too high, you have only few times to fix it, and game over if it's too late.

There are also Panic! where you can click it to remove some of your piece if it's about to become too high. But only the amount of time, though. Easy can be used thrice (3 times), Normal twice, and Hard only once. So, use it when your time is right!

After animal piece, there is also plants and fruits piece. There are rocks where only dissapear after using Bomb piece. There is also glass piece where if you complete the matched piece (ex: Lion piece with Lion glass piece), you'll get bonus!

About 3 modes, there we are: Action, Endurance, and Challenge Mode. Endurance and Challenge needs to be unlocked by different way. Anyway, it always not responding when I play Action on Easy for long so I can't unlock them. Music is so tropical summer, I like it. That's all I can say about Tropical Swap, so if you like puzzle game like putting the correct piece, this is the good try for you. See you in my next game review!
