Hello, everyone — I’ve been receiving letters from Aniplus about their latest offerings, which is kind of a waste since there is no easy way to watch the channel yet until the Tribe app launched in the country (I will post my review of the app this Monday morning). Aniplus sent me an email last night announcing that they will simulcast Attack on Titan 2 in April 2017 — it’s the continuation of the beloved apocalyptic series where humanity fights titans so they can break free from their confined walls (three of them) that were built to protect themselves. ...

**My Cebu Trip, in 40 seconds.**This video starts off with me playing off a part of the latest Wake Up, Girls! single, and proceeds to show the wonders of Cebu — from the Sirao Garden to the skyline as seen at the Temple of Leah, to the skyline as seen at SM Seaside City Cebu. ...

Photos of the Day — 4 December 2016 Our event at the Cebu Trade Hall has ended, and to cap off the night, I took a night stroll after we sort things out. I took this while I’m waiting to cross the other side of Osmeña Boulevard, and if you see this in person, it’s beautiful — I guess it’s more gorgeous during the day. Prior to this, I stumbled upon a resto called “Coffee Prince.” I think this was named after the hit Korean series. ...

Delicious breakfast and lunch, yes? Cebu has its share of local restaurants — some of them include Orange Brutus and Jonie’s. Here’s my first impressions of the meals I ate: Orange Brutus SM Cebu has just opened its doors this morning. I was asked by my workmate where we can eat for breakfast, to which I said that we won’t go to Jollibee because I have eaten their meals for days. Then I stumbled upon Orange Brutus. ...

It’s happening — or so I say, “IDZ HABBENING!” After a long wait, we now have MNL48.ph online, and I will take a look at it in the coming days. The MNL48 mobile app was also launched earlier in the morning as per the MNL48 Facebook page. (Press release here) Just this afternoon, AKB48 Team 8 had it’s second performance on ABS-CBN’s “It’s Showtime” prior to its appearance in the Japan-Philippines Friendship Anniversary Celebration with STARMARIE at Market! Market! BGC Taguig tomorrow afternoon. ...

Where I got a taste of what Lechon Cebu is like It’s nighttime at Fuentes Circle. Just got off from our event’s Day 1, and tonight, I tasted Lechon Cebu there. For Php100, we get a quarter kilos of it that can be shared by two people. If you have Php200, for the night and you’re near Fuentes Circle, get inside it. To add to that, you can listen to band music.

Pioneer Films (under the name Viewers Choice Philippines) released an update about the screening date of Makoto Shinkai’s “your name.,” which was set to be screened in cinemas December 14: Due to pending issues with the Metro Manila Film Festival that affected movie booking schedules, the December 14 release date of the movie YOUR NAME (Kimi no Na wa) is still pending. Keep on calling your favorite cinemas to convince them to book the movie the soonest! We will keep you posted for any developments. Thank you for your understanding. ...

Well, I’m finally here — Hi, Cebu! I’m near the Fuente Circle at the moment, and I have yet to explore the rest of Cebu; but really, I’m in awe over my surroundings — I’m still wondering why newspapers have a different size than those of the daily Manila broadsheets. I may not be able to sight-see as I’m here for work, but I am happy to be here for the first time.

https://www.facebook.com/JellyfishEducationPhilippines/posts/1491994624150536:0 Has anyone remembered when I went to the Japan Education and Culture Fair at the Decagon last September? Its organizer Jellyfish Education Consultancy got in touch with me with more information about their Nihongo Class. Reading through the info provided to me, “This program is an international based curriculum through the coordination of Tochigi International Education Institute. It is a 30 hour class of Japanese language led by a native Japanese sensei. The objective of this is to educate the people about the importance of learning Nihongo not only for use in Japan but to improve their competitive advantage in a global level.” ...

Here’s what you may have missed from this precious landmark I posted pictures from January here, and one of the photos I’ve posted is about a landmark in the City of Pasig. Never in my wildest dreams will I get to step inside that tower that I’m just looking from far away. The Rotary Club of Mutya ng Pasig, of which I am a member, was invited by the City Government to partake in the half-day filled with awe and nostalgia. ...
