Crazy Taxi City Rush – App Review

Crazy Taxi is a mission based application published by Sega. It’s really a fun game that keeps you coming back, The game allows you to choose your driver, buy the taxi that you want, upgrade your taxi, and add decorations to get more cash. The major enjoyable part is that the game has multiple maps, and it allows you to beat your previous scores. I also enjoy the fact that the whole thing seems to have a story line.

Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun

This anime is about a high school student Sakura who is in love with her classmate Nozaki. She quickly confesses her love to him, but he misunderstands and thinks she is just a fan. He invites her to his house to help him with some drawings. She discovers he’s actually a renowned shojo manga artist named Sakiko Yumeno. She agrees only as a way to get closer to him. In their adventures they meet other schoolmates that help assist them and help inspire them.

I really enjoyed this anime and the manga. The voice actors matched the characters very well, and overall there was really nothing that I could pinpoint as being negative about the anime or manga.

You can watch the anime at: Animeshow.

Tokyo Ghoul Season 1 – Review

Tokyo premered July of 2014 and has since become a very popular anime series. The anime is based off of the manga written under the same name or ‘Toukyou Kushu’. The show follows Ken Keneki a human, after surviving an attack of a ghoul, wakes to find that a transplant from surgery has left him half-human and half-ghoul. Keneki struggles to survive the attacks of other ghouls and the CCG. Keneki begins working in a local coffee shop to conceal his identity, and learns from an older ghoul Yushimara to eat the flesh of suicide victims in order to survive.

Ghouls are human like creatures that crave human flesh and must have it to survive, and the CCG (commission to counter ghouls) are humans are specialized in hunting and killing ghouls.

Coldplay – Ghost Stories Review

As a fan of their previous work, I wouldn’t say this is their best work so far, but that isn’t to say it isn’t good. It’s amazing. Also, anyone who updated to IOS 8 got one of their newer albums as well, but this is probably because Apple and Coldplay have a relationship. When this album released Itunes radio had a station devoted to Coldplay only.

It was interesting to find out that Chris Martin (lead singer) got the idea to create this album, by discovering the concept that your previous actions affect your present life.

The idea of Ghost Stories, for me, was “how do you let the things that happen to you in the past – your ghosts – how do you let them affect your present and your future?” Because there was a time when I was feeling like they were going to drag me down and ruin my life, and the lives of those around me. I was very lucky to meet a very good sufi teacher who started to introduce the idea of “if you sit with your experiences and the things you’ve been through, they alchemize.” At the time he said that, I didn’t really know what that meant, but I trusted that it would work, and the more that I was learning about that, the more music just started flowing through.

Bleachers – Strange Desire

This has to be the best album of 2014. I’ve struggled looking for a pop artist that wasn’t the typical crude and overly stereotypical. I’m not to artists that continue to perpetuate disappointing stereotypes of wannabe quality artists. This album, even though it probably didn’t have the usual amount of songs, was quality was spot on.

Seriously, they debuted this year and they were better then Beyonce in the love song department. What girl or boy wouldn’t want to hear: “I didn’t know I was lonely ’til I saw your face”. Such simple words but they’re not trashy or overused.

My favorite songs from the album are: Wild Hearts and I Wanna Get Better.
