Creepy video ~ 世界恐怖童話故事 - 灰姑娘 (下)

Long time ago I read a Japanese comic series that introduced to me something like dark fairy tales. The storyline is about a group of conspirators who after the death of their great leader are doing a psychological experiment to train a group of children from baby age to become super humans who can easily manipulate people's minds to carry out all sorts of terrorism acts on their behalf. And when the children have grown up, the group will then handpick the best out from them to become their new leader to conquer the world. So when these children are small, they don't get to read those fairy tales like Cinderella. Instead, they are given dark fairy tales which are nothing about happy endings but mankind weaknesses which are depicted in pretty much the same way as bedtime stories' except that they look creepy.

The name of the comic is "Monster", which actually refers to the chosen one who is the sole survivor of the experiment. He looks like an innocent neighbor boy but there're always evils in his heads. The storyline is mainly based on a conspiracy theory in Hitler's Nazis era. Yes that's right, Hitler's followers are trying to find the next Hitler after their leader's death to bring the world into chaos once again. The story is fantastic as you will get to see the ways how the little boy manipulate the inner weaknesses of humans to carry out his evil wills. But after all, the boy is just an experiment product who has been brainwashed to live up to his evil guardians' expectations. He's been told by his guardians what's right and not what we think is right.

This dark fairy tales thing has brought a huge impact on me because I had never known there could be dark sides of fairy tales that exist in parallel with those bright ones which I have grown up together with. So, do we all live up to someone's expectations also?

Music video ~ Friends (Rebecca)

Wow... I didn't expect this music to have dated so long already. It was composed back in year 1985??? Eh, come on la, I'm not that old. Haha... I first heard this song from a Japanese series called Lipstick. The drama is about a group of teenage girls locked up in a youth prison because of their misbehaviors and the friendship they have forged over difficult times to fight against the unfairness in this world. I especially like the ending credit part because of the way they have shot it. It's very cool~ It's shot in the way that resembles flashbacks of all the memorable events that have happened throughout the plots in this drama.

Still... it's kinda weird to have found out that this song is that old especially because I really like it very much. :P

I got to know this song from the very best Japanese anime Slam Dunk. It's one of the best theme songs from the series. It means "love until the end of the world" if not mistaken :P This song fits perfectly to the strong passions for youthful sports and youthful love.
