about Yoruko
Age: 21
Why this blog name: I named the url after a Rurutia song (Suzaku no Sora which roughly translated, means “sky phoenix”) and album (Water Forest is the name of her 2nd album). “C’est la rêve qui chante…” means “it’s the dream that sings…” in French.
Moving on…
The purpose of this blog is to:
- review singles, albums, and the occasional anime soundtrack
- give the occasional random rant on anime and/or seiyuu
I’m more of a track-by-track reviewer as opposed to an editorial writer because I feel like they give a more in-depth and detailed insight of the single/album. I’m also going to review seiyuu CDs on a different standard than J-Pop ones because character songs serve a different purpose.
As for grading scale…I use a standard letter grade since I’m not really good at deciding numerical ratings for songs. The grading scale generally will judge the quality of the songs, but is highly subject to my own opinion (e.g., I am not handing out A’s to well-produced songs that I absolutely hate…)
Anyhow, enjoy your stay! :)

Kiraboshi!

actually, “suzaku no sora” means “phoenix’s sky.” sky phoenix would be “sora no suzaku.” regardless, thanks for the rurutia interview translation, and the blog is a joy to read.

Yosh !
Well i have to admite that this is a cool blog with lots of cool Review, but i wasn’t able to ask this question, are you French? do you speak French ?, cause i found an error on your Banner, and i want to know if it’s on porpuse or you didn’t pay attention!

I took French in high school – that’s when I started the blog…I guess it might have been “que” instead of “qui”…?
Well, I guess even if it’s wrong…I’ve grown rather attached to my blog title so I guess I’ll keep it ^^;;

Yosh again
Well french is a cute language, but it’s not my native language too.
the error is “Le rêve” instead of ” La rêve” ans “qui” is right, the word “rêve” -> ” Dream” is in french ” un nom masculin “–> ” a male word”.
I understand your attachement to your blog title, and i’ll say it again, your blog is so cool, and thank you.
