音時雨 ～Regentropfen～

Being in full-live-mode for more than half year, Noriko now already announced two new releases. It was rather a rush to me, since I just pre-ordered one of her new releases...

Anyway, I just read the second release from her blog this morning:

Mille-feuille ～Noriko Mitose Pop Works Best～
Centifolia = hundred petals; Mille-feuille = thousand leaves.
Obviously, it's a sister album of her Centifolia--by simply looking at the style of the album title.

Using Noriko's own idea, Centifolia contains all her "art" works, which are difficult to sing and the aura is rather darker. However, this time, in Mille-feuille, songs will be more "pop". Extremely catchy and cute, you may sing with the music even just after one time of listening.

Now the thing is, should I order this album as well? Maybe I'll decide when the official tracklist is revealed. I do wonder what songs will be in this album. Pop, catchy, cute, huh... I would say I prefer Noriko from the dark side, but I don't refuse the bright Noriko. So I'll see. (´・ω・｀)

At the end of that post, she finally mentioned her "vierge automatique" and linked it. But, why didn't she link it to the special website instead of its amazon page--what are you planning for?? Σ(ﾟДﾟ)

Also, Noriko did mention that, in case of mille-feuille, the pastry is more well-known, thus I went to check how this kind of pastry looks like (I'm quite slow in memorizing food names orz). They look so nice (I did ever eat them, without known the name of that kind of food though)! Then I was like dead--I MEAN I HAVE TOTALLY NO RESISTANCE TO THEM. =w=

I changed my blog background on August 29. The reason was simple: summer has gone, staring at the jellyfish will just make you feeling cold. ^^; Due to having no idea for another theme, I tried various photos or designs. At last, I came up with one season word of autumn:
Lycoris radiata.

Even a little bit red, it's not that bad, is it? And my previous colour scheme fits the image perfectly! So on that night, I started to loop Noriko's "Manjushage" for a while. XD
I LOVE MANJUSHAGE!!
Probably I'll keep this background until it snows. :3

Speaking of lycoris, in the next day, I somehow did some scribble, the motif was "katana and sword". But maybe because I didn't outline on my pencil draft, I couldn't do that as what I thought first via tablet.

Guardian Souls: Mihane side

Guardian Souls: Tohne side

I spent almost entire Sunday working on this, or maybe I could say these. Since it was supposed to be in one frame. I'm just not yuri enough to get perfect arrangement of the characters.
Major elements I already decided before finishing up included: moon night, field with flower, breeze. In case of "katana", I chose Lycoris radiata without hesitation. and shrine maiden custom ftw! However, I took much longer for the "sword" side. What flower I could use? I don't exactly know how I eventually got my way to daisy (some impression from tsukihime). Yet soon in the next day (I mean today) I began to regret. Even though the final version is satisfactory enough to me. I don't mean I don't like daisy, I merely blaming myself for forgetting the classic flower that matches a sword! I feel like I completely lost. °A°

...bury me using thousands of Lycoris!

Now, waiting for the arrival of KOKIA's "History", and do a countdown to the release of Noriko's "vierge automatique".
September 20... still long to wait...
