Notes of Doom: GiraGira Episodes 6, 7 and 8

Hooray for our first complete series!! \\ (^-^) //

The last three episodes, again, have very few notes per episode so we have put them all together in one post. Thank you for all your support, and for waiting so long for the notes... ^^;;

This way for the last of the notes... )

Notes of Doom: GiraGira Episodes 4 and 5

Episodes 4 and 5, while very exciting in terms of plot, offered very little in terms of random Japanese stuff that requires an explanation. So, we decided to condense the notes from both episodes into one post. ^_^

And here they are... )

Notes of Doom: GiraGira Episode 3

These notes are a little late ^^;; Hopefully someone will still find them interesting. In this episode Rink gets a new host and ghosts from the past are exorcised. These notes deal with a few of the nuances from the interactions of the characters.

Right this way for more... )

Notes of Doom: GiraGira Episode 2

This episode takes us deeper into the world that hosts exist in. While the life and work of a host/hostess does not revolve around sexual favors, there are businesses that do. We are exposed to this and more in this story…

On to the notes... )
First, a disclaimer…

Neither I nor sayochan have ever been to a host club. Ever. Don’t look at me like that, it’s true. Therefore, we are not experts on the subject. However, with over 18 years of Japanese language and cultural study between the two of us, we feel reasonably qualified to write these cultural notes…Enjoy! If you have questions don’t be afraid to comment!
