Sorry that I haven't been updating lately. I'm been getting sick all the time. ^^; Just when I'm okay, I catch up with work at our business. Then, when I'm about to blog, I got sick again. ^^;; Oh well. So far, I think I'm about 4 chapters [including this month's issue] behind in Skip Beat! Hopefully, I can get them up soon.
By the way, I haven't been reading manga anymore. I couldn't find stories that interest me. Lately, I'm getting my fix of stories from Kdramas usually crime and mystery.
Everyone couldn’t understand Murasame’s term of a lowlife = ‘coward’ towards Bill [Cedric’s boss minion] because it is usually used in his former gangster life. In order to hide his past, Murasame instead described what he meant. A young Japanese actor exclaims that it is ‘son of bitch’ in English. Everyone agrees to it until they realize Murasame is calling Bill as a ‘sob’. This irks Bill and it started a fight between them.
[Free talk: Sorry for no updates for a long time. Before, it was because I was waiting for the English scanlations. And, when they are out, I was either busy due to issues at our business or health issues orz So, since I’m feeling okay enough today and not too busy, here goes…]
There was a seen of Cedric looking at pictures of Western looking women on his tablet. Then, he started scowling upon seeing someone ‘@’ is calling him on his cellphone. He told his minions to do things in moderation before leaving. From the impression, it seems that the minions are doing the bullying errands due to fear since they are still uneasy with Cedric. Somehow, I think the pictures were possible replacements for his leading lady/co-star due to his racism.
Kenny, the American actor, called out to Murasame and they did an impromptu sword fight scene. They immediately hit it off but it was abruptly interrupted when Cedric’s friend who looked menacing at Kenny. Kenny immediately went to back to the side of the US actors but managed to give his email to Murasame through Kyouko.
General/Shogun Convert, what Leo is cosplaying, turned out to be a role which Kuu played before. It was a major hit in US along with the Japanese dish, takoyaki (fried batter balls with octopus inside and other condiments on top) which was promoted in the show. Kanae muses that perhaps Leo wore that costume in consideration for the Japanese team. This thrilled everyone from Japan.
May this Christmas season be memorable for you and your family! Enjoy the season with love, laughter, and good moments.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 🎄
Upon meeting each other, Cedric ignores Kyouko as if she didn’t exist. Kyouko is totally shocked by this because it is the first time someone reacted like that. Cedric only paid attention to her when Mr. D called out to her. While Kyouko wondered how to answer him when he asked if she is also a ‘member’ [of the project], Mr. D tell her that he knew about the project and starts to introduce Cedric to her.
This chapter can actually be an introduction or chapter 1 of a totally different shoujo manga. ^^; It will go like this, main character looks exhausted as she returns to her workplace. The lady boss asks how come she took a while to do the errand. Was the grocery too far away? Main character says no but actually, it’s this...
[313] Kyouko and others have arrived at the US airport. Kyouko is totally moved upon seeing a LED billboard advertisement of Juliena, Ren’s mother. She muttered out fairy which Yashiro overheard. Yashiro comments that Juliena’s looks are indeed extraordinary. Out of curiosity, Kyouko wanted to know who Kuu’s wife so she checked out her movie. That is how she came to know who Juliena is. She also noticed that Juliena’s eyes are the same with Corn’s so perhaps, she is his mother.
Kyouko and Kanae are doing some practice exercises. Kanae is impressed that Kyouko is still full of energy and without a sweat after the training. Hehe, well, that shouldn’t be a surprise for us readers since she can even chase after a car by just using a bicycle. Well, if ever there will be trouble in the US or the future, I get a feeling that Kyouko will be immensely helpful.
Yashiro informs Ren that Lory knew who his real partner is. Since Ren is acting all clueless and perhaps, someone might hear them, Yashiro decided to interrogate him somewhere else = smoking room that isn’t being used. Inside the room, Ren clarifies that he isn’t puzzled with Lory knowing but more on how did Yashiro knows that Lory knew.
Yuki immensely praised the two girls for their action scene. They were able to do it well since they practiced together before. Kanae is also improving fast with Kyouko as her personal assistant. Well, we already know this will happen so moving on...
This seems like an epilogue-ish arc wherein everyone who needs to make an appearance is making one to put a closure for everyone. Tetsuki’s dad look so young. The exchanging of gratitude for Tetsuki’s role in Tokize and Chika’s life is quite nice.
Upon seeing Kyouko in costume, Kanae comments that she is surprised since it unexpectedly suits Kyouko. Kyouko thought that if she added a lip ring, she’ll be Setsuka. Yashiro compliments Kyouko and looks at Ren to comment. After a pause, Ren says that it is quite unexpected. Kyouko wonders about that pause.
