He left after the band's first album debut, citing musical differences between himself and the other members of the band. After being released from A4, he signed onto M Boat, a former sister company to &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YG_Entertainment" title="YG Entertainment"&gt;YG Entertainment&lt;/a&gt;. He underwent a few years of vocal training under the label and released his first solo album &lt;i&gt;Like A Movie&lt;/i&gt; in 2002. The album became very popular after receiving praise from many well-known artists, including &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seo_Taiji" title="Seo Taiji"&gt;Seo Taiji&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Seung_Hun" title="Shin Seung Hun"&gt;Shin Seung Hun&lt;/a&gt;. In 2003, he released his second album, &lt;i&gt;It's &lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;Real&lt;/i&gt;. It proved to be as popular as his first, making him the best selling artist of 2003 in Korea. Unlike his debut album, It's Real wasn't restricted to R&amp;amp;B and it included different musical elements like pop and hip-hop. Wheesung left &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YG_Entertainment" title="YG Entertainment"&gt;YG Entertainment&lt;/a&gt; after his contract expired in March 2006. He signed a new contract that is reportedly worth 1.5 million won with his new company Orange Shock Agency.

The series is contained within multiple media pieces which began as a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manga" title="Manga"&gt;manga&lt;/a&gt; first serialized in the manga magazine &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wings_%28manga_magazine%29" title="Wings (manga magazine)"&gt;Wings&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; starting in 2002. After the first manga series ended, a sequel entitled &lt;i&gt;Princess Princess +&lt;/i&gt; started serialization in the same magazine in May 2006, and finished in January 2007. An &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime" title="Anime"&gt;anime&lt;/a&gt; has since been adapted from the manga and began airing in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan" title="Japan"&gt;Japan&lt;/a&gt; on &lt;span class="mw-formatted-date" title="2006-04-05"&gt;&lt;span class="mw-formatted-date" title="04-05"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_5" title="April 5"&gt;April 5&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006" title="2006"&gt;2006&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, produced by the Japanese animation studio, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Deen" title="Studio Deen"&gt;Studio Deen&lt;/a&gt;.

The main protagonist, Toru Kouno, has just transferred to a new all-boys school, Fujimori, after living with his uncle for a time. He is one such boy chosen to be one of the &lt;i&gt;Hime&lt;/i&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(&lt;span class="t_nihongo_kanji" lang="ja"&gt;姫&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; or "&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Princess_%28anime%29#Princess_system" title="Princess Princess (anime)" class="mw-redirect"&gt;Princesses&lt;/a&gt;", which is a tradition at the school in order to break up the monotony of life surrounded by nothing but males. Students (based on certain &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Princess_Princess_%28anime%29#Qualifications" title="Princess Princess (anime)" class="mw-redirect"&gt;qualifications&lt;/a&gt;) are selected to be Princesses and are made to dress up as girls and attend school functions like this.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At the beginning of the story, there are already two such Princesses, Yuujiro Shihodani and Mikoto Yutaka, known as the Western Princess and Eastern Princess respectively, due to their room location. Toru is convinced into becoming a Princess soon after entering the school though once he accepted the job, he found it to be much more enjoyable than he thought.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2090078741252619652-348969608761187021?l=maria-oichi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/feeds/348969608761187021/comments/default' title='Poskan Komentar'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2090078741252619652&amp;postID=348969608761187021' title='0 Komentar'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/348969608761187021'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/348969608761187021'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/2009/07/princess-princess.html' title='Princess Princess'/><author><name>Mihael Keehl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07380650220019448499</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SsYCSxJc43I/AAAAAAAAAQg/x8zY_i_wwOA/S220/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sna2zwfeR0I/AAAAAAAAAO4/uZd-I_rJdhI/s72-c/9781569708507.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090078741252619652.post-287021925667694803</id><published>2009-06-06T01:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-06T01:22:57.458-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Kuroshitsuji</title><content type='html'>&lt;table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="cattitle"&gt;&lt;a rel="bookmark" href="http://dramatic14usagi.multiply.com/journal/item/1/Kuroshitsuji_"&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="itemsubsub"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div id="item_body" class="bodytext" author="dramatic14usagi" is_pmrepliable="1" author_possessive="dramatic14usagi's"&gt;&lt;p&gt;   &lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Kuroshitsuji, which translates to “Black    Butler,” is the heart-warming t&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ale of young boy and his demon butler, set in London in the late 1800s.

The demon butler, Sebastian, is practically perfect in every way. Like Mary Poppins… fro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;m HELL. Sebastian can do it all; cook, clean,    pour the perfect cup of tea, tame demon d&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ogs, and violently eliminate    large sums of people who would harm the “Young Master.” Plus he’s &lt;i&gt;   very &lt;/i&gt;easy on the eyes; overall one hell of a butler. Ciel is    definitely a unique characte&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;r. He’s one of the precious few angst-ridden    c&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;haracters living for revenge that doesn’t annoy the audience. I know what you’r&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e thinking. It shouldn’t be possible. There’s some cosmic anomaly that prevents a large perc&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;entage of anime fans from liking those angsty c&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;haracters, but somehow Ciel’s attitude isn’t obnoxious. Ciel    aside, most &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;of the characters are likeable and quirky, adding a great    deal of humor to an otherwise dark show.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Coming in at only 24 episodes, Kuroshitsuji is lucky to be short enough that the animators didn’t cut too many corners and the quality of the animation remains consistently good. Though a few bright colors are incorporated into the animation, the show’s style remains generally dark with muted colors. Enhancing the style of the show is a detailed wardrobe of fancy Goth&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ic &amp;amp; Lolita&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;-like    ensembles that suffice as 19&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; century clot&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;hing. I’m not an expert, so I can’t say if the wardrobe is accurate to the Victorian age, but it’s nice to look at and makes for some really fantastic cosplaying opportunities (and since it’s anime, accuracy to real-life is hardly relevant).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Kurshitsuji has an above-average soundtrack. Given London’s role as port-of-trade, it’s little wonder that Kuroshitsuji finds ways t&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;o integrate characters from all over the world, which leads to a big variety of quality music throughout the show. Indian and Chinese music, Italia arias; Kuroshitsuji seems to have the best music to fit the scene and characters, which definitely pumps up the action in the sho&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;w. And the music ca&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiomQ4vJlrI/AAAAAAAAAOo/1NDMa2mtHUE/s1600-h/%5Blarge%5D%5BAnimePaper%5Dscans_Kuroshitsuji_CuteSherry%280.35%29__THISRES__213263.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 112px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiomQ4vJlrI/AAAAAAAAAOo/1NDMa2mtHUE/s320/%5Blarge%5D%5BAnimePaper%5Dscans_Kuroshitsuji_CuteSherry%280.35%29__THISRES__213263.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344125979378423474" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;n get pretty creepy when it needs to be. If you watch the whole show and aren’t slightly traumatized by th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e song “London Bridge is Falling Down,” then you are a stronger soul than I. Seriously, no good comes of that song. The op&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ening song,    “Monochrome Kiss” by SID is nice and upbeat, but the first opening    sequence is a lit&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;tle disappointing since it only features Ciel and Sebastian. The second opening sequence has the same song, but shows more characters, including some villains, which gives a much better idea of what the show is about. The first ending sequence is downright adorable, which you wouldn’t think would fit a dark series, but the content is so appropriat&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e that it works. Combined with the upbeat “I’m Aliv&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e” by BECCA (a singer/songwriter from Portland), it’s an overall nice ending. The second ending sequence does more to match the dark tones that become dominant in the sec&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ond half of the series. The second ending song is Lacrimosa by Kalafina, a beautiful a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;nd depressing song, fitting since Lacrimosa is Latin for “weeping.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;It’s not a review from TheCat until I’ve blathered on about seiyuu (voice actors). Ono Daisuke provides the smooth voice of Sebastia&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;n. You probably heard Ono as Koizumi Itsuki in the Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi, a role that more or less launched him into stardom. Award-winning seiyuu Paku Romi also graces the cast as Lady Red (yeah, there are awards for seiyuu). Romi is famous for her roles as Temari in Naruto, Hitsugaya in Blea&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;ch, Edward Elric in    Fullmetal Alchemist, Nana Osaki in Nan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;a, and oh so much more. Most of the Romi’s biggest roles are young men or brash young women, so it’s refreshing to hear her play a mature woman. Other voice actors in Kuroshitsuji include Yasumoto Hiroki (Sado in Bleach, Germany in Axis Powers Hetalia), Fukuyama Jun (Kimihiro in xxxHolic, Lelouch in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Code Geass), and Suwabe Junichi (Fuuma in X, Gri&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;mmjow in B&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;leach, Archer in Fate/staynight). But the biggest name in the show is Ciel’s seiyuu; the ever-talented Sakamoto Maaya. If you don’t already know the reputation of this singer/seiyuu, she’s the magic behind Hitomi in Escaflowne (as well as the singer of the show’s intro song), Reika in RaXephon, Crona in Soul Eater, Haruhi in Ouran High School Host Club, and Aerith in FFVII: Crisis Core. She also did the ending song for Wolf’s Rain, which I hope you’ve had th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e pleasure of watching. Kuroshitsuji was my first time hearing Maaya voice a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiomikiPOQI/AAAAAAAAAOw/x0wsYjfUEWM/s1600-h/kuroshitsuji9.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 181px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiomikiPOQI/AAAAAAAAAOw/x0wsYjfUEWM/s320/kuroshitsuji9.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344126283193202946" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt; male character, so it was first startling to realize who it was playing Ciel, and just how amazing her vocal range is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;If you’re waiting for me to start on the English voice actors, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for the show to actually get licensed in th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;e US. Kuroshitsuji is still fairly new in Japan, and American fans are just starting to hear about it. My guess is that the license will be snatched up sometime in July, when the American anime companies will have the chance to screen the show or at least get an idea of how big the existing fanbase already is, at the US’ two biggest anime conventions (Anime Expo in CA and Otakon in MD). For the time being, Kuroshitsuji can be watched in fansub form, or in ra&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;w    Japanese if you’re proficient.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;The thing that sets Kuroshitsuji apart from a lot of other shows, especially the over-hyped shounen anime that most people (myself included) have gotten used to, is just how damn dark it is. It’s a show where evil triumphs… and that’s a good thing. It’s a show that isn’t afraid to kill off characters. And just when you start thinking that maybe Sebastian, for all his demonic powers, isn’t such a bad guy, his utter apathy for the death that unfolds around him&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt; shocks    the viewer back into the realization that the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;hero of the show is just plain evil. In fact, it seems that most of the characters are shady bastards with hidden agendas, leaving the audience rooting for the forces of evil. Ah, the refreshing feeling of evil winning. [insert maniacal laughter here] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;In most anime worlds, revenge is a fruitless endeavor that never fulfills the way the avenger hopes it will. Most anime, especially sho&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;unen anime, exist under the assumption that good will always triumphant over evil (eventually) and that fighting in the name of friendship, honor, or for the sake of others will guarantee victory. So that must make Kuroshitsuji the opposite of shounen anime. The hatred and revenge that dominate Ciel’s heart is what drives Sebastian’s loyalty, and as long as their contract remains, Sebastian’s demonic strength will overcome any of Ciel’s enemies. So, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;moral of the story is, live for hatred and a demon will make all your wishes come true. Selling your soul for the win! But I guess when the hero of the show is a demon, evil is going to win over good… and everything else.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Another tidbit about Kuroshitsuji that I find interesting; it was clearly made before the manga was finished (the manga is still ongoing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;), so the anime director had to basically make up half of the show. This would normally result in a bunch of plotless filler episodes, but Kuroshitsuji manages to tie-in the events of almost every episode in the end. Thus Kuroshitsuji has a very solid plot and direction, despite not following the m&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Calibri;font-size:100%;"  &gt;anga. It wastes little of    its 24 episodes and keeps a nice pace, never dragging out or rushing any    of the major events.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2090078741252619652-287021925667694803?l=maria-oichi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/feeds/287021925667694803/comments/default' title='Poskan Komentar'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2090078741252619652&amp;postID=287021925667694803' title='2 Komentar'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/287021925667694803'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/287021925667694803'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/2009/06/kuroshitsuji-which-translates-to-black.html' title='Kuroshitsuji'/><author><name>Mihael Keehl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07380650220019448499</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SsYCSxJc43I/AAAAAAAAAQg/x8zY_i_wwOA/S220/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiomBsl9fcI/AAAAAAAAAOg/pvLqw9FIZiA/s72-c/kuroshitsuji-pics.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090078741252619652.post-1304427506742550434</id><published>2009-06-06T01:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-06T01:15:34.784-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="cattitle"&gt;&lt;a rel="bookmark" href="http://dramatic14usagi.multiply.com/journal/item/2/Jigoku_Shoujo_Mitsuganae"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class="itemsubsub"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div id="item_body" class="bodytext" author="dramatic14usagi" is_pmrepliable="1" author_possessive="dramatic14usagi's"&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hell Girl&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(&lt;span class="t_nihongo_kanji"&gt;&lt;span lang="ja"&gt;地獄少女&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt; &lt;span class="t_nihongo_comma" style="display: none;"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="t_nihongo_romaji"&gt;Jigoku Shōjo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;, also known as &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jigoku Shoujo: Girl from Hell&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animax_Asia" title="Animax Asia"&gt;Animax Asia&lt;/a&gt;'s &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English-language" title="English-language" class="mw-redirect"&gt;English-language&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television" title="Television"&gt;television&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast" title="Broadcast" class="mw-redirect"&gt;broadcasts&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;sup class="noprint Template-Fact"&gt;&lt;span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources since April 2009" style="white-space: nowrap;"&gt;[&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"&gt;citation needed&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt; is an &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime" title="Anime"&gt;anime&lt;/a&gt; series, produced by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniplex" title="Aniplex"&gt;Aniplex&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Deen" title="Studio Deen"&gt;Studio Deen&lt;/a&gt;.

In general during each arc, the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protagonist" title="Protagonist"&gt;protagonists&lt;/a&gt;' dramas are explained in detail from the start of their &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grudge" title="Grudge"&gt;grudges&lt;/a&gt;, through the escalation of their torment until it becomes unbearable and they resort to accessing the Hell Correspondence website. Although in general, the client gives the antagonist a chance, he or she usually ends up pulling the string on his or her doll and sending the antagonist to hell. Once they have pulled the string&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;, before taking the antagonist to hell, Ai Enma punishes the person for his or her sins with the help of her companions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the first season, the story soon follows a journalist named Shibata Hajime, a former blackmailer, and his daughter Tsugumi who shares a strange connection with the Jigoku Shōjo as they investigate the truth behind the Jigoku Shōjo. In the second season, a mysterious young girl from Hell, named Kikuri is introduced who is able to travel freely between Earth and the Twilight realm where Ai resides. Later, the plot centers around Takuma Kurebayashi, a boy who is blamed by his townsfolk for causing disappearances around the town that are in reali&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiolE0U-b3I/AAAAAAAAAOQ/frxq0Vll9Tk/s1600-h/364295.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 218px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiolE0U-b3I/AAAAAAAAAOQ/frxq0Vll9Tk/s320/364295.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344124672524840818" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;ty caused by the townsfolk using the Hell Correspondence. In the third season, some time after Ai's death, Kikuri returns along with a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yokai" title="Yokai" class="mw-redirect"&gt;yokai&lt;/a&gt; named Yamawaro, who accepts an old offer from Ai to become her fourth assistant. The story follows Ai mysteriously revival from death and subsequent inhabitation of the body of a young schoolgirl, Yuzuki Mikage.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Summary for ep.1&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A round ball of light bounces through the city, as various events occur aro&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;und the Jigoku Tsushin. Ren sees a strange boy appear before him in a bathhouse, Kikuri reappears before Wanyudo, and Hone sees a vision of Ai when a butterfly lands in front of her in a bar. At a certain school later, three girls get into trouble with their teacher Tange when he finds out that they are passing notes. Having heard bad rumors about Tange, the girl named Itsuka later suggests that they need to take measures against him for their futures. Because of her father’s influence, the girl named Akie is given responsibility for dealing with most of this. As Kikuri returns to the Jigoku Tsushin with him in the meantime, the&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiolZQo5TdI/AAAAAAAAAOY/WseNQ35mJNQ/s1600-h/b9ff22a92b55b3f79a8c099f6b668a7c1225258205_full.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 180px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SiolZQo5TdI/AAAAAAAAAOY/WseNQ35mJNQ/s320/b9ff22a92b55b3f79a8c099f6b668a7c1225258205_full.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344125023721967058" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; young boy from earlier is revealed to be named Yamawaro. He address Kikuri as “hime” while he assists with her childish desires. Mikage Yuzuki, one of the girls from earlier, sees a strange vision while in the bath that night. Ai appears out of the water, dragging her into it and sharing a kiss with her. Yuzuki puts this off as a dream afterwards, but unknown to her, a butterfly has wrapped around her back.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The next day, Akie re&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;veals that her father could not do anything because of the lack of proof against Tange. She doesn’t believe him to be a bad person either, so she leaves the other two girls without much thought. Itsuka still believes their situation is serious, however, so she convinces Yuzuki to accompany her in creating evidence against Tange. The two girls go to a love hotel that night, as Itsuka plans to take a picture of Tange when he passes. Yuzuki successfully shoots when Itsuka approaches who she believes is Tange, but this ironically turns out to be her father. With this, both of Itsuka’s parents appear in wonder of what she is doing in such a place. This brings Itsuka to the Jigoku Tsushin website that night, where she types in Tange’s name. Itsuka meets Ai as expected, who presents her with a doll that has a red string wrapped around it. She explains that by pulling the string, her enemy would be sent to hell. However, she would also follow after she died. Itsuka cannot believe these circumstances, but she reappears in her room with the doll before she can say any more. Yuzuki wakes from this vision, believing it to be another dream, but Ai appears to tell her that she is actually inside of her. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Itsuka continues to act rebellious at school the next day, even listening to her mp3 player in class. When Tange takes this from her, she runs out of the classroom in rage. While she looks through several places that afternoon in search for her mp3 player, T&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;ange appears to tell her that he has already cast it aside. Itsuka reveals what she has heard about Tange refusing to pass students that he does not like, guessing that he plans to do the same to her. Tange states that this is impossible, but Itsuka brings out her doll before he can suggest anything else. Yuzuki appears just in time to see Itsuka pull the string, then feeling pain as Ai bursts from her body. With this, the Jigoku Tsushin appear to torture Tange and bring him to hell. When Yuzuki reappears in her reality, she finds that Itsuka has a round mark below her neck. When Akie shows up as well, however, she reveals that Tange had given her Itsuka’s mp3 player to return. Further more, there are doodles in the notebook Tange always seemed to write bad notes into. In the end, Tange really wasn’t a bad person. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a name="Hell_Correspondence" id="Hell_Correspondence"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h3&gt;&lt;span class="editsection"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="mw-headline"&gt;Hell Correspondence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;p&gt;The medium through which a client contacts Ai Enma has changed over the centuries. Initially clients would write the names of that whom they hated in a three-column newspaper advertisment. After which, clients could enter names into a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_board_system" title="Bulletin board system"&gt;BBS&lt;/a&gt; that was programmed in &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BASIC" title="BASIC"&gt;BASIC&lt;/a&gt;. When the internet became available, people access the a website known as the "Hell Correspondence" &lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(&lt;span class="t_nihongo_kanji"&gt;&lt;span lang="ja"&gt;地獄通信&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="t_nihongo_comma" style="display: none;"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="t_nihongo_romaji"&gt;Jigoku Tsūshin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; or the "Hotline to Hell". Soon after, the site was adapted into a mobile version that could be accessed from cell phones.&lt;sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell_Girl#cite_note-3" title=""&gt;&lt;span&gt;[&lt;/span&gt;4&lt;span&gt;]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Each medium can only be used at midnight by one who harbors a desire for revenge against their object of hatred.

adalah penulis catatan harian di internet atau halaman web. Blogger ini merupakan pengguna internet yang rajin mengisi weblog.&lt;br /&gt;Salah satu kiprah blogger yang signifikan di tahun 2004 adalah keterlibatab mereka dalam kampanye calon presiden Amerika Serikat. Kubu John Kerry bahkan mendirikan weblog yang mencatat kegiatan kampanye sehari hari calon presiden dari Partai Demokrat itu. Dalam konvensi nasional kedua kubu, blogger juga mendapatkan porsi khusus. Undangan bagi para blogger untuk meliput gelaran tersebut sempat membuat iri jurnalis konvensional.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam L. Penenberg, kolumnis Wired, menyebut masa depan jurnalisme berada di tangan para Blogger.

movies starring the loveable and strange detective L (Kenichi Matsuyama)! Too bad the film's really not that good, though to be honest, diehard fans of Matsuyama's popular take on L will likely not care that much. &lt;i&gt;L: Change the World&lt;/i&gt; is neither groundbreaking nor noteworthy, and exists mainly as fan service for the people who can't get enough of the slouching, sweets-loving bishonen detective who outwitted the dastardly Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara) in those &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; movies. Rabid fans of the blockbuster manga adaptations will probably find this to be a suitable reward for their unabated fandom. However, the uninitiated may need to take a crash course in &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; lore. It's either that, or wonder why everyone is so excited to see a movie about a modern rock refugee with bad posture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf074tiWq8I/AAAAAAAAAKk/eWraeytwcVk/s1600-h/l_change_the_world_b.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 201px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf074tiWq8I/AAAAAAAAAKk/eWraeytwcVk/s320/l_change_the_world_b.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331483379358936002" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;One final case finds L when a series of connected events converge on his doorstep. L reestablishes contact with K, a member of Wammy's House, the prodigy-raising thinktank that gave birth to L, as well as numerous other letter-named geniuses (no word if James Bond's Q is a member of the ranks). Also, former colleague F dies after discovering a terrible virus in Thailand, but sends L an odd messenger: a young boy who's immune to the virus, and just so happens to be a whiz with numbers. Finally, 12 year-old Maki (Mayuko Fukuda) shows up on L's doorstep bearing another strain of the same virus. Her father Nikaido (Shingo Tsurumi) developed the virus, but some nefarious baddies want control of it. Their goal: to change the world. The bad guys want to provoke an outbreak of this new virus - which is described as a fun combination of the flu and Ebola - so that they can eliminate the majority of the human race, ridding the planet of useless people while also preserving the environment. Oh, they may also be able to make a few bucks on the side. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Changing the world? Ridding the planet of useless people? Those sound suspiciously like things that Light Yagami would do, though this connection between the original &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; concept and the plot of &lt;i&gt;L: Change the World&lt;/i&gt; is never truly explored. Unlike the previous films, &lt;i&gt;L&lt;/i&gt; is an original screenplay (a novel adaptation was released roughly one month before the film premiere), carving its own fictional niche while making a few welcome, &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf08Ze9FlpI/AAAAAAAAAKs/6ejjBy7r3NA/s1600-h/l_change_the_world_a.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf08Ze9FlpI/AAAAAAAAAKs/6ejjBy7r3NA/s320/l_change_the_world_a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331483942380213906" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;and satisfying nods to &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; mythology. L is still incredibly quirky and smart, but without the original manga story as backup, the film suffers. L's charisma in the other films came not only from his quirky looks and behavior, but also from his ability to outthink and outwit everyone around him. In &lt;i&gt;L: Change the World&lt;/i&gt;, L is presented as always ahead of the game, and there's never truly a moment where his intelligence impresses or entertains the audience. That's both a plus and a minus. The plus is it eliminates some of the heady and wordy exposition that weighed down the &lt;i&gt;Death Note &lt;/i&gt; films. The negative is that it makes &lt;i&gt;L: Change the World&lt;/i&gt; much less fun or surprising.                                                     &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Not to worry, in place of L whipping his foes with his ultra-powerful brain, we get...character development! The original &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; manga, anime, and movies were too concerned with Byzantine mindgames and convoluted plotting to deal with actual character development, so the change here is a novel one. This isn't the same "always solving crimes" L that we saw in the other films; this L has time to reflect upon his life and even his feelings, and the minor tweaks to the character are good ones. The filmmakers give L some emotional connection through his interaction with both Maki and the nameless little boy, and Kenichi Matsuyama makes the character's abundant strangeness watchable and endearing. For L fanboys (or fangirls, as is more likely) &lt;i&gt;L: Change the World&lt;/i&gt; is enjoyable stuff, especially when you consider that the character will likely not make any more appearances except in prequels - whic&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf08jNQRO8I/AAAAAAAAAK0/mGm27_5BdVg/s1600-h/NearChangeTheWorldCustom.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 251px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf08jNQRO8I/AAAAAAAAAK0/mGm27_5BdVg/s320/NearChangeTheWorldCustom.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331484109427522498" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;h could still happen.

As a result                              of his clever scheming, Light was invited to join                              the investigation team chasing the mass murderer known                              as Kira - who just so happens to be Light, anonymously                              using the Death Note to kill scores of criminals daily.                              However, oddball super detective and avid sugar-lover                              L (Kenichi Matsuyama) truly suspects that Light is                              Kira, and he's not shy about letting Light know. During                              their initial and subsequent meetings, L basically                              rubs Light's face in his obvious suspicion.&lt;br /&gt;                            However, instead of avoiding                              potential capture, Light embraces the chance to work                              side-by-side with his sweets-loving rival. Now that                              L and Light/Kira are working together, the stage is                              set for an epic battle between two insanely smart                              guys who like to talk a lot. It's a showdown of acrobatic                              mental geniuses, who use keen reasoning and elaborate                              mindgames to outwit their wily opponent. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0sI4hsM-I/AAAAAAAAAJ8/je-bik2L2E0/s1600-h/Death-L-cellphone.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 179px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0sI4hsM-I/AAAAAAAAAJ8/je-bik2L2E0/s320/Death-L-cellphone.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331466065000805346" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Who will                              be the last name written in the Death Note?

And will &lt;i&gt;Death Note &lt;/i&gt;fans pissed at the fate                              of the manga characters find this new cinema version                              to be satisfying?&lt;br /&gt;                            The answer to that last                              question: yes and no. One portion of the &lt;i&gt;Death                              Note &lt;/i&gt;fanbase won't be that happy because the fate                              of one character doesn't stray very far from his destiny                              as detailed in the manga. However, another portion                              of the fanbase should be tickled pink because the                              other character is served much better than his manga                              counterpart was. What does that mean to those not                              versed in &lt;i&gt;Death Not&lt;/i&gt;e lore? Probably nothing,                              though there's still some enjoyment along the way.&lt;br /&gt;                            That is, if you can stay                              focused. &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; is a very cerebral manga,                              and derives its thrills from mindgames, obtuse mental                              jousting, and layers of doublespeak that play much                              better on paper than on celluloid. Director Shusuke                              Kaneko doesn't do much to&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0slG-z0KI/AAAAAAAAAKE/ZVYMQYpEpcc/s1600-h/photo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 185px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0slG-z0KI/AAAAAAAAAKE/ZVYMQYpEpcc/s320/photo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331466549917372578" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; make the already wordy events                              of the manga more enthralling on film, and inserts                              plenty of wooden exposition to keep the audience tuned                              in - if they haven't fallen asleep. The first &lt;i&gt;Death                              Note&lt;/i&gt; movie ended with the promise of L and Light's                              coming conflict, but because the sequel has to compress                              many volumes of manga into 141 minutes, much of the                              back-and-forth rivalry between L and Light gets excised                              in favor of talk, talk, and more talk. The uninitiated                              could get bored, and simply wonder why the two male                              leads wear so much eyeliner.&lt;br /&gt;                            The unitiated might also                              be bothered by Erika Toda, who plays teenybopper popstar                              Misa Amane. Misa is egregiously perky and pouty, and                              the adorable Toda can be as annoying as she is charming.                              Misa enters the picture as the possessor of a second                              Death Note. Since she's a huge fan of Kira, she also                              uses the Death Note to punish criminals, and even                              becomes known as the "Second Kira". However,                              Misa is sloppy and not very smart - she's easily                              pinched by L, who figures that if Misa is the Second                              Kira, then her new boyfriend Light is the first one.                              It's smart thinking, but Light has his own elaborate                              plan built upon the Byzantine rules of the Death Note                              itself.&lt;br /&gt;                            Light's plan involves                              handing&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0tU7aBlfI/AAAAAAAAAKM/MWuEapagknc/s1600-h/deathnotethelastname.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 331px; height: 222px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0tU7aBlfI/AAAAAAAAAKM/MWuEapagknc/s320/deathnotethelastname.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331467371444016626" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; the Death Note to a third party, Kiyomi Takada                              (Nana Katase), and getting her to do his dirty work                              for him. Kiyomi was also in the manga, but her film                              counterpart is actually an amalgamation of three separate                              characters. Still, her function is more or less the                              same as the manga. Basically, she's a pawn used by                              Light to prove his supreme smarts, and it works just                              as entertainingly on film as it did in the manga.                              Seeing Light's elaborate plans getting played out                              onscreen can be quite exciting, even though it basically                              invites whole pages of exposition to explain it all.&lt;br /&gt;                            Not helping matters is the                              acting, which ranges from effective (Kenichi Matsuyama                              makes a lovable L) to labored (Tatsuya Fujiwara strains                              a bit as Light) to wooden or overdone (most of the                              supporting actors). Again, director Kaneko's handling                              is far from imaginative. Nearly everything that happens                              in &lt;i&gt;Death Note: The Last Name&lt;/i&gt; also occurred                              in the manga (though perhaps in a less truncated form),                              and Kaneko translates it to the screen in a slavish                              and entirely too-routine manner. The film could have                              used more creativity or cinematic verve, but the most                              creative thing that the filmmakers probably did was                              persuade the Red Hot Chili Peppers to lend two of                              their songs to the soundtrack.&lt;br /&gt;                                                        The film largely succeeds based on its built-in popularity,                              and those who read the manga will easily get the most                              out of the screen adaptation. Those who didn't read                              the manga will likely be more distracted by the film's                              obvious shortcomings (direction, pacing, acting),                              but there's still a major positive: &lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt;'s                              hook - a supernatural notebook that allows its bearer                              to play God - works in any medium, and makes for                              intriguing, and sometimes enthralling moral discussion.                              Is Light correct in using the Death Note to reshape                              the world in his own image? Is his brand of justice                              worth the necessary sacrifice of innocent lives? Or                              is he just a megalomaniacal murderer who's so in love                              with himself that he thinks the end justifies the                              means?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2090078741252619652-8891109176968479516?l=maria-oichi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/feeds/8891109176968479516/comments/default' title='Poskan Komentar'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2090078741252619652&amp;postID=8891109176968479516' title='0 Komentar'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/8891109176968479516'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/8891109176968479516'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/2009/05/death-note-2-last-name.html' title='Death Note 2 ~The Last Name~'/><author><name>Mihael Keehl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07380650220019448499</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SsYCSxJc43I/AAAAAAAAAQg/x8zY_i_wwOA/S220/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0vYiZs_qI/AAAAAAAAAKU/yKlIo7gU7W8/s72-c/mov_deathnote2_top.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090078741252619652.post-4125564892605391351</id><published>2009-04-22T22:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-02T22:22:22.942-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Death Note Live Action</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0ouejkM0I/AAAAAAAAAJc/btMEIgYhNE0/s1600-h/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0ouejkM0I/AAAAAAAAAJc/btMEIgYhNE0/s320/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331462312817865538" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Death Note&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(&lt;span class="t_nihongo_kanji"&gt;&lt;span lang="ja"&gt;デスノート&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="t_nihongo_comma" style="display: none;"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="t_nihongo_romaji"&gt;Desu &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="t_nihongo_romaji"&gt;Nōto&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; is a series of two &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-action" title="Live-action"&gt;live-action&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_Japan" title="Cinema of Japan"&gt;Japanese films&lt;/a&gt; released in 2006 and based on the &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Note" title="Death Note"&gt;Death Note&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manga" title="Manga"&gt;manga&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime" title="Anime"&gt;anime&lt;/a&gt; series by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsugumi_Ohba" title="Tsugumi Ohba"&gt;Tsugumi Ohba&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takeshi_Obata" title="Takeshi Obata"&gt;Takeshi Obata&lt;/a&gt;. The films primarily center on a university student who decides to rid the world of evil with the help of a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Note#The_Death_Note_and_its_functions" title="Death Note"&gt;supernatural notebook&lt;/a&gt; that kills anyone whose name is written in it.

His life undergoes a drastic change when he discovers a mysterious notebook, known as the "Death Note", lying on the ground. The Death Note's instructions claim that if a person's name is written within it while picturing that person's face, that person shall die. Light is initially skeptical of the notebook's authenticity, but after experimenting with it, he realizes that the Death &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0piECV8FI/AAAAAAAAAJs/HdPRM7ItqPQ/s1600-h/death_note_01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 179px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sf0piECV8FI/AAAAAAAAAJs/HdPRM7ItqPQ/s320/death_note_01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331463199052394578" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Note is real. After meeting with the previous owner of the Death Note, a &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinigami_%28Death_Note%29" title="Shinigami (Death Note)"&gt;shinigami&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; named &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryuk" title="Ryuk"&gt;Ryuk&lt;/a&gt;, Light seeks to become "the God of the New World" by passing his judgement on those he deems to be evil or who get in his way.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Soon, the number of inexplicable deaths of reported criminals catches the attention of the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpol" title="Interpol"&gt;International Police Organization&lt;/a&gt; and a mysterious detective known only as "&lt;i&gt;L&lt;/i&gt;".

The series centers on &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Yagami" title="Light Yagami"&gt;Light Yagami&lt;/a&gt;, a high school student who discovers a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural" title="Supernatural"&gt;supernatural&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notebook" title="Notebook"&gt;notebook&lt;/a&gt;, the titular "Death Note", dropped on Earth by a &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinigami" title="Shinigami"&gt;shinigami&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; (death god) named &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinigami_%28Death_Note%29#Ryuk" title="Shinigami (Death Note)"&gt;Ryuk&lt;/a&gt;. The Death Note grants its user the ability to kill anyone whose face they have seen, by writing the victim's name in the notebook with a picture of the victim in his mind, since there is the possibility of several people having the same name. The story follows Light's attempt to create and rule a world cleansed of evil using the notebook, and the complex conflict between him and his opponents.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Death Note&lt;/i&gt; was first serialized in 108 chapters by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shueisha" title="Shueisha"&gt;Shueisha&lt;/a&gt; in the Japanese manga magazine &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weekly_Sh%C5%8Dnen_Jump" title="Weekly Shōnen Jump"&gt;Weekly Shōnen Jump&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; from December 2003 to May 2006. The series was also published in &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank%C5%8Dbon" title="Tankōbon"&gt;tankōbon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; (paperback) format in Japan starting in May 2004 and ending in October 2006, and since then has been translated internationally. The series was adapted into &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live-action" title="Live-action"&gt;live-action&lt;/a&gt; films released in Japan on June 17, 2006, on November 3, 2006, and on February 2, 2008. The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anime" title="Anime"&gt;anime&lt;/a&gt; series aired in Japan from October 3, 2006, to June 26, 2007. A novel based on the series, written by &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nisio_Isin" title="Nisio Isin"&gt;Nisio Isin&lt;/a&gt;, was released in Japan on August 1, 2006.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Yagami" title="Light Yagami"&gt;PLOT&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Yagami" title="Light Yagami"&gt;Light Yagami&lt;/a&gt; is an extremely intelligent young man who resents the crime and corruption in the world. His life undergoes a drastic change when he discovers a mysterious notebook, known as the "Death Note", lying on the ground. The Death Note's instructions claim that if a human's name is written within it, that person shall die. Light is initially skeptical of the notebook's authenticity, but after experimenting with it, Light realizes that the Death Note is real. After meeting with the previous owner of the Death Note, a &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinigami_%28Death_Note%29" title="Shinigami (Death Note)"&gt;shinigami&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt; named Ryuk, Light seeks to become "the God of the New World" by passing his keen judgment on those he deems to be evil or who get in his way. A &lt;i&gt;shinigami&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="padding-left: 0.1em;"&gt;'&lt;/span&gt;s Death Note is a notebook that can kill any human whose name is written in it. All Death Notes are governed by the same set of rules determining the extents and limitations of the Notes' powers. &lt;p&gt;Soon, the number of inexplicable deaths of reported criminals catches the attention of the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpol" title="Interpol"&gt;International Police Organization&lt;/a&gt; and a mysterious detective known only as "&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L_%28Death_Note%29" title="L (Death Note)"&gt;L&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;". L quickly learns that the serial killer, dubbed by the public as "Kira" &lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(&lt;span class="t_nihongo_kanji"&gt;&lt;span lang="ja"&gt;キラ&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; , derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "&lt;i&gt;killer&lt;/i&gt;")&lt;/span&gt;, is located in Japan. L also concludes that Kira can kill people without laying a finger on them. Light realizes that L will be his greatest nemesis, and a game of psychological &lt;a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cat_and_mouse_game" class="extiw" title="wiktionary:cat and mouse game"&gt;cat and mouse&lt;/a&gt; between the two begins.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;After several murders, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misa_Amane" title="Misa Amane"&gt;Misa Amane&lt;/a&gt;, a possessor of another Death Note, meets Light and tries to help him to do his work but she is captured by L. Light makes a plan involving renouncing ownership of both Death Notes, and all of his memories of them, and turns himself in to L for surveillance. After losing his memories, Light and L start to investigate a criminal group named "Yotsuba" together who had Misa's Death Note. When arresting them, Light recovers all his memories while touching the Death Note, remembers his plan, and forces the former owner of Misa's Death Note, the shinigami Rem, to kill L.&lt;/p&gt; After L's death, Light is granted the position of the "new L". Light is challenged by L's successor, Near, in a battle of minds. Near automatically suspects Light to be Kira and plans different ways of attack. In the meantime, Kira has gained much of public support, and has contacts to help him continue killing criminals. Mello abducts one of these contacts, and Kira kills his own contact. Mello dies in the aftermath, Near is then able to use his SPK members to find Kira's other contact, and create a fake, duplicate Death Note. This is used to trick Kira into "killing" Near and the SPK with a fake death note. Obviously, Near and the SPK remain alive and use Kira's own signed Death Note as evidence to arrest him. In the end, Light is caught by the SPK and killed by Ryuk&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more information you can go to  http://deathnote.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page       And also check more for storyline and characters!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2090078741252619652-6837690824163664473?l=maria-oichi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/feeds/6837690824163664473/comments/default' title='Poskan Komentar'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2090078741252619652&amp;postID=6837690824163664473' title='0 Komentar'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/6837690824163664473'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/6837690824163664473'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/2009/04/death-note.html' title='Death Note'/><author><name>Mihael Keehl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07380650220019448499</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SsYCSxJc43I/AAAAAAAAAQg/x8zY_i_wwOA/S220/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/Sece5EQollI/AAAAAAAAAHs/YDn0b0ViZag/s72-c/655273f_DeathNote43m_6e7c011.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090078741252619652.post-6424565613741525320</id><published>2009-01-21T21:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-21T22:04:58.202-08:00</updated><title type='text'>फलव</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:-1;"&gt;All flowers have a meaning.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SENGOKU BASARA (&lt;em&gt;that pictures is from&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Sengoku&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;Basara x&lt;/em&gt;)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;             &lt;/strong&gt;From the producer of Resident Evil 4, Hiroyuki Kobayashi and the character designer from Devil May Cry. Sengoku Basara is visually similar to Dynasty Warriors series. Devil Kings and Sengoku Basara are the same games but the playing mode will be different. Sengoku Basara (Japanese version) takes place in the Sengoku period, a Warring States period, during which Japan was split into many minor states battling over power and land. The game will feature two historical warlords as the main characters, Scorpio (Sanada Yukimara) and Azure Dragon (Date Masamune). *Devil Kings (US version) isn't based on the Sengoku period, but a new devilish world, that features the main character, Devil King (Oda Nobunaga).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;When I watched the trailer on this game, I felt surprised at first also excited cause of the 200+ hits combos I can have in the game and it has the great similarity as Samurai Warriors. It has its mission and has lots of soldiers to attack, but this one is crazier and the difficulty will be a bit higher than Samurai Warriors. After I bought this game, I found there's no regret to buy it :)&lt;br /&gt;If you loved to play Devil May Cry series so as the Shinobi, Sengoku Basara will be the best for you, as it is like the combination on Samurai Warriors, Devil May Cry, and the Shinobi. The musics are hot as well as the Dynasty Warriors series, it's hardly to imagine that each character will have its Fury (which has a similarity on MUSOU term) but the BASARA attack will be making you feel that you're the MONSTER by attacking on 100+ hits on that, and it's sure that it will bring you a lot of excitement.&lt;br /&gt;The characters in the game will be featured those characters which got in the Samurai Warriors, Sanada Yukimura, Date Masamune, Oda Nobunaga, Nouhime and much more. With some additional playable characters, it made the totally 16 playable characters of all. It's just simply amazing especially you're using Sanada Yukimura, although he acted a little bit "silly" in the game with his running action and all that, but he's the cool character to play with and you can just hardly to think of Nouhime using guns, she's just like the Dante in the Devil May Cry... There's too lot characters with cool styles in the game, almost all characters are superb.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Characters link on Sengoku Basara 2: &lt;a href="http://www.koeiwarriors.co.uk/sb2-characters.php"&gt;http://www.koeiwarriors.co.uk/sb2-characters.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SAIHAI NO YUKUE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;A new game from Koei, one of many Koei Warriors games.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I don't have any information about this, so please give me if you have.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Please, i really want to know!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I just have one information about this, aboout the Characters pictures you can go to...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.koeiwarriors.co.uk/saihai-artworks.php"&gt;http://www.koeiwarriors.co.uk/saihai-artworks.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SVW1TjuzSfI/AAAAAAAAADQ/29MixfH3LKQ/s1600-h/top2-saihai2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5284329085402827250" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 288px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SVW1TjuzSfI/AAAAAAAAADQ/29MixfH3LKQ/s320/top2-saihai2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;From the left: Sakon, Yukinaga, Yoshitsugu, Hideie, and on the top is Mitsunari Ishida.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;                                                   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2090078741252619652-5159896982339953140?l=maria-oichi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/feeds/5159896982339953140/comments/default' title='Poskan Komentar'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2090078741252619652&amp;postID=5159896982339953140' title='0 Komentar'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/5159896982339953140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2090078741252619652/posts/default/5159896982339953140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maria-oichi.blogspot.com/2008/12/sengoku-basara-and-saihai-no-yukue.html' title='Sengoku Basara and Saihai no Yukue'/><author><name>Mihael Keehl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07380650220019448499</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SsYCSxJc43I/AAAAAAAAAQg/x8zY_i_wwOA/S220/288534034_789ea451e1.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SVWzQNmEYPI/AAAAAAAAADI/ycsrL4vJXWg/s72-c/Sngoku+Basara+X.bmp' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2090078741252619652.post-8895346160945598745</id><published>2008-12-20T21:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-20T21:46:04.837-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Samurai Warriors!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SU3Xrd4T0MI/AAAAAAAAADA/V1hL2Mr8iPs/s1600-h/sw2-official-800x600.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5282115079730614466" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SU3Xrd4T0MI/AAAAAAAAADA/V1hL2Mr8iPs/s320/sw2-official-800x600.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Wow!!

For example, Diao Chan and Zhen Ji have a same weapon chain whip with the different name.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;(compare it, Zhen ji and diao)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;About the gameplay, it so good. Cool i think~&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Lu Xun is pretty good handsome-face there. Zhou yu is look so, cool.. I like Ling Tong's weapon! About Qiaos sisters, is bit dissapointed because only Xiao Qiao only appears there. There are no Da Qiao. Xiao Qiao still use two fans with crystal accesories. Cao Pi's face look so handsome there and ruthless also. Sun Shang Xiang is prettier there than DW 2-5. Zhen Ji is look more like naughty woman in DW 6.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I hope there are more DW or SW game.

I love to play Dynasty Warriors and love to discover Chinese three kingdoms history and japanese history too. Both of them are good!! I hope i will find a person with the same hobby with me, because i am too lonely. At school or at home. Nobody care about me at school. So, please take a look for me and let's share a stories. I like Anime and manga also.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am bishonen lovers or pretty boys. Pretty Boys are cute!! For example, Lu Xun from Dynasty Warriors is very very cute. I like him very much plus his personality are patient (i like this the most) clever (wow!) respectful (how great!) and inexperienced (make him so cute).. Please do not think negative if i like yaoi!! I don't like that one. From DW i am like Wu history!! Ok, to make you all not getting confused with what i am talking about let's discuss the story, i mean, history of the great three kingdoms of China!! Start!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;At the 1 or 2 century of China. There are three kingdoms who dominated the land of China, There are Shu, Wu and Wei kingdoms. Those are kingdoms are an enemy. They want to get an Emperor seat of China. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Collapse of Dynastic Power&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;What is traditionally thought of as the beginning of the "unofficial" Three Kingdoms Period is the &lt;a title="Yellow Turban Rebellion" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Turban_Rebellion"&gt;Yellow Turban Rebellion&lt;/a&gt; led by &lt;a title="Zhang Jiao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhang_Jiao"&gt;Zhang Jiao&lt;/a&gt; in 184. The year long revolt devastated northern China, as Zhang's religious sect, the Way of Peace, battled the weakened Han Empire, whose army was led by &lt;a title="He Jin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/He_Jin"&gt;He Jin&lt;/a&gt;. The Way of Peace was primarily composed of farmers who had suffered greatly under the corrupt government system and thus easily converted by Zhang Jiao to create a "new and peaceful world." The rebellion ended when Zhang Jiao died of illness, but the chaos the rebellion wrought, when combined with the natural disasters that had overrun China in the same period, destabilized the Han Dynasty and doomed it to fall. The rebellion also caused the central government to increase the allowance of military power of the local governments, which is one of the causes of the warring period that followed.&lt;br /&gt;The series of events leading to the collapse of dynastic power and the rise of &lt;a title="Cao Cao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Cao"&gt;Cáo Cāo&lt;/a&gt; are extremely complex. The death of &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Emperor Ling of Han China" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Ling_of_Han_China"&gt;Emperor Ling&lt;/a&gt; in May 189 led to an unstable regency under General-in-chief He Jin and renewed rivalry between the factions of the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Eunuchs" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eunuchs"&gt;eunuchs&lt;/a&gt; and regular civil bureaucracy. Following the assassination of He Jin, his chief ally the Colonel-Lieutenant of Retainers &lt;a title="Yuan Shao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuan_Shao"&gt;Yuan Shao&lt;/a&gt; led a massacre of the eunuchs in the imperial palaces in &lt;a title="Luoyang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luoyang"&gt;Luoyang&lt;/a&gt;. This event prompted the invitation of frontier general &lt;a title="Dong Zhuo" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dong_Zhuo"&gt;Dong Zhuo&lt;/a&gt; to enter Luoyang from the northwest boundary of China. At the time China faced the powerful barbarians of &lt;a title="Qiang people" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qiang_people"&gt;Qiang&lt;/a&gt; tribe to the northwest, and thus Dong Zhuo controlled a large army with elite training. When he brought the army to Luoyang, he was able to easily overpower the existing armies of both sides and took control of the imperial court, ushering in a period of civil war across China.&lt;br /&gt;Dong Zhuo then manipulated the succession so that the future &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Emperor Xian of Han China" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Xian_of_Han_China"&gt;Emperor Xian&lt;/a&gt; could take the throne in lieu of his elder half-brother. Dong Zhuo, while ambitious, genuinely wished for a more capable emperor. On his way to Luoyang, he encountered a small team of soldiers protecting the two sons of Emperor Ling fleeing the war zone. In the encounter, Dong Zhuo acted arrogantly and threatening, causing the elder half-brother to be paralyzed with fear; the younger brother, future Emperor Xian, responded calmly with authority and commanded Dong Zhuo to protect the royal family with his army to return to the Imperial Court.&lt;br /&gt;While Dong Zhuo originally wanted to re-establish the authority of Han Empire and manage all the political conflict properly, his political capability proved to be much worse than his military leadership. His behaviour grew more and more violent and authoritarian, executing or sending into exile all that opposed him, and showed less and less respect to the Emperor. He ignored all royal etiquette and openly carried weapons into the imperial court frequently. In 190 &lt;a title="Campaign against Dong Zhuo" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campaign_against_Dong_Zhuo"&gt;a coalition led by Yuan Shao&lt;/a&gt; was formed between nearly all the provincial authorities in the eastern provinces of the empire against Dong Zhuo. The mounting pressure from repeated defeat on the southern frontline against the &lt;a title="Sun Jian" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Jian"&gt;Sun Jian&lt;/a&gt; forces drove the Han Emperor and later Dong Zhuo himself west to &lt;a title="Chang'an" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chang"&gt;Chang'an&lt;/a&gt; in May 191.&lt;br /&gt;Dong Zhuo once again demonstrated his political shortcomings by forcing millions of residents of Luoyang to migrate to Chang'an. He then set fire to Luoyang, preventing occupation by his enemies and destroying the biggest city in China at that time. In addition, he ordered his army to slaughter a whole village of civilians. The soldiers beheaded civilians and carried their heads into Chang'an to show off as war trophies, pretending to have had a great victory against his enemies. A year later Dong Zhuo was killed in a &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Coup d'etat" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coup_d"&gt;coup d'etat&lt;/a&gt; by &lt;a title="Wang Yun" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wang_Yun"&gt;Wang Yun&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Lü Bu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LÃ¼_Bu"&gt;Lü Bu&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rise of Cao Cao&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271367201003856226" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 186px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 247px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0xxa3o3SCig/SSeoilh64WI/AAAAAAAAAAw/kzQXkp1kdZk/s320/180px-DWCaoCao.jpg" border="0" /&gt;In 191, there was some talk among the coalition of appointing &lt;a title="Liu Yu (2nd century)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Yu_(2nd_century)"&gt;Liu Yu&lt;/a&gt;, an imperial relative, as &lt;a title="Emperor" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor"&gt;emperor&lt;/a&gt;, and gradually its members began to fall out. Most of the warlords in the coalition, with a few exceptions, sought the increase of personal military power in the time of instability instead of seriously wishing to restore the Han Dynasty's authority. The Han empire was divided between a number of regional warlords. Yuan Shao occupied the northern area of &lt;a title="Ye, China" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ye,_China"&gt;Ye&lt;/a&gt; and extended his power, by taking over his superior &lt;a title="Han Fu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_Fu"&gt;Han Fu&lt;/a&gt; with trickery and intimidation, north of the &lt;a title="Yellow River" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_River"&gt;Yellow River&lt;/a&gt; against &lt;a title="Gongsun Zan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gongsun_Zan"&gt;Gongsun Zan&lt;/a&gt;, who &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;held the northern frontier. Cáo Cāo, directly to Yuan's south, was engaged in a struggle against &lt;a title="Yuan Shu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuan_Shu"&gt;Yuan Shu&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Liu Biao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Biao"&gt;Liu Biao&lt;/a&gt;, who occupied respectively the Huai River basin and Middle &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Yangzi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yangzi"&gt;Yangzi&lt;/a&gt; regions. Further (The picture is Cao Cao he is appear in the Koei GAme, Dynasty Warriors 6)&lt;br /&gt;south the young warlord &lt;a title="Sun Ce" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Ce"&gt;Sun Ce&lt;/a&gt;, taking over after the untimely death of &lt;a title="Sun Jian" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Jian"&gt;Sun Jian&lt;/a&gt;, was establishing his rule in the Lower Yangzi, albeit as a subordinate of Yuan Shu. In the west, &lt;a title="Liu Zhang (warlord)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Zhang_(warlord)"&gt;Liu Zhang&lt;/a&gt; held Yizhou province while &lt;a title="Hanzhong" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanzhong"&gt;Hanzhong&lt;/a&gt; and the northwest were controlled by a motley collection of smaller warlords such as &lt;a title="Ma Teng" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma_Teng"&gt;Ma Teng&lt;/a&gt; of Xiliang, the original post of Dong Zhuo.&lt;br /&gt;Dong Zhuo, confident in his success, was slain by his own adopted son, &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Lu Bu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Bu"&gt;Lu Bu&lt;/a&gt; and his father-in-law Wang Yun. Lu Bu, in turn, was attacked by Dong Zhuo's supporters, &lt;a title="Li Jue" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li_Jue"&gt;Li Jue&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="Guo Si" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guo_Si"&gt;Guo Si&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="Zhang Ji" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhang_Ji"&gt;Zhang Ji&lt;/a&gt; (Zhang Xiu's Uncle) and &lt;a title="Fan Chou" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_Chou"&gt;Fan Chou&lt;/a&gt;. Wang Yun and his whole family were executed. Lu fled to &lt;a class="new" title="Zhang Yang (warlord) (page does not exist)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Zhang_Yang_(warlord)&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1"&gt;Zhang Yang&lt;/a&gt;, a northern warlord, and remained with him for a time before briefly joining Yuan Shao, but it was clear that Lu Bu was far too independent to serve another.&lt;br /&gt;In August 195, Emperor Xian fled the tyranny of Li Jue at Chang'an and made a year long hazardous journey east in search of supporters. By 196, when he was received by &lt;a title="Cao Cao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Cao"&gt;Cao Cao&lt;/a&gt;, most of the smaller contenders for power had either been absorbed by larger ones or destroyed. This is an extremely important move for Cao Cao with the suggestion from his primary advisor, &lt;a title="Xun Yu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xun_Yu"&gt;Xun Yu&lt;/a&gt;, commenting that by supporting the authentic Emperor, Cao Cao would have the formal legal authority to control the other warlords and force them to comply in order to restore the Han dynasty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a title="Cao Cao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Cao"&gt;Cao Cao&lt;/a&gt;, whose zone of control was the precursor to the Kingdom of Wei, had raised an army in the winter of 189. In several strategic movements and battles, he controlled the Dui province and defeated several factions of the Yellow Turban rebels. This earned him the aid of other local militaries controlled by &lt;a title="Zhang Miao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhang_Miao"&gt;Zhang Miao&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Chen Gong" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen_Gong"&gt;Chen Gong&lt;/a&gt;, who joined his cause to create his first sizable army. He continued the effort and absorbed approximately 300,000 &lt;a title="Yellow Turban Rebellion" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Turban_Rebellion"&gt;Yellow Turbans&lt;/a&gt; into his army as well as a number of clan-based military groups particular to the eastern side of Qing province. In 196 he established an imperial court at &lt;a title="Xuchang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xuchang"&gt;Xuchang&lt;/a&gt; and developed military agricultural colonies (&lt;a title="Tuntian" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuntian"&gt;tuntian&lt;/a&gt;) to support his army. Although the system imposed a heavy tax for hired civilian farmers (40% to 60% of agricultural production), the farmers were more than pleased to be able to work with relative stability and professional military protection in a time of chaos. This was later said to be his second important policy to success.&lt;br /&gt;In 194, Cao Cao went to war with &lt;a title="Tao Qian (Three Kingdoms)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tao_Qian_(Three_Kingdoms)"&gt;Tao Qian&lt;/a&gt; of &lt;a title="Xuzhou" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xuzhou"&gt;Xuzhou&lt;/a&gt;, whose officers had executed his whole family. Tao Qian received the support of &lt;a title="Liu Bei" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Bei"&gt;Liu Bei&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Gongsun Zan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gongsun_Zan"&gt;Gongsun Zan&lt;/a&gt;, but even then, it seemed as if Cao Cao's superior forces would overrun Xuzhou entirely. However, Cao Cao received word that &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Lu Bu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Bu"&gt;Lu Bu&lt;/a&gt; had seized Yan province in Cao Cao's absence, and thus, he retreated, putting a halt to hostilities with Tao Qian for the time being. Tao Qian died that same year, leaving his province to Liu Bei. A year later, in 195, Cao Cao managed to drive Lu Bu out of Yan. Lu Bu fled to Xuzhou and was received by Liu Bei, and an uneasy alliance began between the two.&lt;br /&gt;In the south, &lt;a title="Sun Ce" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Ce"&gt;Sun Ce&lt;/a&gt;, then an independent general under the service of Yuan Shu, defeated the warlords of &lt;a title="Yangzhou" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yangzhou"&gt;Yangzhou&lt;/a&gt;, including &lt;a title="Liu Yao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Yao"&gt;Liu Yao&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="Wang Lang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wang_Lang"&gt;Wang Lang&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a title="Yan Baihu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yan_Baihu"&gt;Yan Baihu&lt;/a&gt;. The speed with which Sun Ce accomplished his conquests led to his nickname, "Little Conqueror" (小霸王), a reference to the late &lt;a title="Xiang Yu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiang_Yu"&gt;Xiang Yu&lt;/a&gt;. In 197, Yuan Shu, who was at odds with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei, felt assured of victory with his subordinate's conquests, and thus declared himself emperor of the Cheng Dynasty. The move, however, was a tactical blunder, as it drew the ire of many warlords across the land, including Yuan Shu's own subordinate Sun Ce, who had advised Yuan Shu not to make such a move. Cao Cao issued orders to Sun Ce to attack Yuan Shu. Sun Ce complied, but first convinced Cao Cao to form a coalition against Yuan Shu, of which Liu Bei and Lu Bu were members. Attacked on all sides, Yuan Shu was defeated and fled into hiding.&lt;br /&gt;Afterwards, Lu Bu betrayed Liu Bei and seized Xuzhou, forming an alliance with Yuan Shu's remnant forces. Liu Bei fled to Cao Cao, who accepted him. Soon, preparations were made for an attack on Lu Bu, and the combined forces of Cao Cao and Liu Bei besieged Xia Pi. Lu Bu's officers deserted him, Yuan Shu's forces never arrived as reinforcements, and he was bound by his own officers &lt;a title="Song Xian" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_Xian"&gt;Song Xian&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Wei Xu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wei_Xu"&gt;Wei Xu&lt;/a&gt; and executed along with many of his officers. Thus, the man known as the mightiest warrior in the land was no more.&lt;br /&gt;In 200, &lt;a title="Dong Cheng" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dong_Cheng"&gt;Dong Cheng&lt;/a&gt;, an officer of the Imperial Court, received a secret edict from the Emperor to assassinate Cao Cao. He collaborated with Liu Bei on this effort, but Cao Cao soon found out about the plot and had Dong Cheng and his co-conspirators executed, with only Liu Bei surviving and fleeing to the Yuan Shao in the north.&lt;br /&gt;After settling the nearby provinces, including a rebellion led by former Yellow Turbans, and internal affairs with the court, Cao Cao turned his attention north to Yuan Shao, who himself had eliminated his northern rival Gongsun Zan that same year. Yuan Shao, himself of higher nobility than Cao Cao, amassed a large army and camped along the northern bank of the Yellow river.&lt;br /&gt;In 200, after winning a decisive battle against Liu Biao at Shaxian and putting down the rebellions of Xu Gong and others, Sun Ce was struck by an arrow and fatally wounded. On his deathbed, he named his younger brother, &lt;a title="Sun Quan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Quan"&gt;Sun Quan&lt;/a&gt;, as his heir.&lt;br /&gt;Following months of planning, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao met in force at &lt;a title="Battle of Guandu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Guandu"&gt;Guandu&lt;/a&gt;. Overcoming Yuan's superior numbers, (actual numbers vary in different sources, but Yuan Shao having a manifestly superior number is universally accepted) Cao Cao decisively defeated him by setting fire to his supplies, and in doing so crippled the northern army. Liu Bei fled to Liu Biao of Jing province, and many of Yuan Shao's forces were destroyed. In 202, Cao Cao took advantage of Yuan Shao's death and the resulting division among his sons to advance north of the Yellow River. He captured &lt;a title="Ye, China" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ye,_China"&gt;Ye&lt;/a&gt; in 204 and occupied the provinces of Ji, Bing, Qing and You. By the end of 207, after a lightning campaign against the &lt;a title="Wuhuan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wuhuan"&gt;Wuhuan&lt;/a&gt; barbarians, &lt;a title="Cao Cao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Cao"&gt;Cao Cao&lt;/a&gt; had achieved undisputed dominance of the &lt;a title="North China Plain" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_China_Plain"&gt;North China Plain&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Three Emperors &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the first month of 220, &lt;a title="Cao Cao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Cao"&gt;Cao Cao&lt;/a&gt; died and in the tenth month his son &lt;a title="Cao Pi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Pi"&gt;Cao Pi&lt;/a&gt; forced Emperor Xian to abdicate, thus ending the Han Dynasty. He named his state &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Kingdom of Wei" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Wei"&gt;Wei&lt;/a&gt; and made himself emperor at Luoyang. In 221, Liu Bei named himself Emperor of Han, in a bid to restore the fallen Han dynasty. (His state is known to history as "Shu" or "Shu Han".) In the same year, Wei bestowed on &lt;a title="Sun Quan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Quan"&gt;Sun Quan&lt;/a&gt; the title of King of Wu. A year later, Shu Han troops declared war on Wu and met the Wu armies at the &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Yiling" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Yiling"&gt;Battle of Yiling&lt;/a&gt;. At Yiling, Liu Bei was disastrously defeated by Sun Quan's commander &lt;a title="Lu Xun (Three Kingdoms)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Xun_(Three_Kingdoms)"&gt;Lu Xun&lt;/a&gt; and forced to retreat back to Shu, where he died soon afterward. After the death of Liu Bei, Shu and Wu resumed friendly relations at the expense of Wei, thus stabilizing the tripartite configuration. In 222, Sun Quan renounced his recognition of &lt;a title="Cao Pi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Pi"&gt;Cao Pi&lt;/a&gt;'s regime and, in 229, he declared himself emperor at Wuchang.&lt;br /&gt;Dominion of the north completely belonged to Wei, whilst Shu occupied the southwest and Wu the central south and east. The external borders of the states were generally limited to the extent of Chinese civilization. For example, the political control of Shu on its southern frontier was limited by the &lt;a title="Tai peoples" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tai_peoples"&gt;Tai&lt;/a&gt; tribes of modern &lt;a title="Yunnan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yunnan"&gt;Yunnan&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Myanmar" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar"&gt;Burma&lt;/a&gt;, known collectively as the &lt;a title="Nanman" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanman"&gt;Southern Barbarians&lt;/a&gt; (南蠻).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Decline and end of Three Kingdoms&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the late 230s tensions began to become visible between the imperial Cao clan and the Sima clan. Following the death of &lt;a title="Cao Zhen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Zhen"&gt;Cao Zhen&lt;/a&gt;, factionalism was evident between &lt;a title="Cao Shuang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Shuang"&gt;Cao Shuang&lt;/a&gt; and the Grand Commander &lt;a title="Sima Yi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Yi"&gt;Sima Yi&lt;/a&gt;. In deliberations, Cao Shuang placed his own supporters in important posts and excluded Sima, whom he regarded as a threat. The power of the Sima clan, one of the great landowning families of the Han, was bolstered by Sima Yi's military victories. Additionally, &lt;a title="Sima Yi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Yi"&gt;Sima Yi&lt;/a&gt; was an extremely capable strategist and politician. In 238 he crushed the rebellion of &lt;a title="Gongsun Yuan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gongsun_Yuan"&gt;Gongsun Yuan&lt;/a&gt; and brought the Liaodong region directly under central control. Ultimately, he outmaneuvered &lt;a title="Cao Shuang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Shuang"&gt;Cao Shuang&lt;/a&gt; in power play. Taking advantage of an excursion by the imperial clansmen to the Gaoping tombs, Sima undertook a &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Putsch" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putsch"&gt;putsch&lt;/a&gt; in Luoyang, forcing Cao Shuang's faction from authority. Many protested to the overwhelming power of the Sima family; notable of which were the &lt;a title="Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Sages_of_the_Bamboo_Grove"&gt;Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove&lt;/a&gt;. One of the sages, Xi Kang, was executed as part of the purges after Cao Shuang's downfall.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Falls of Shu&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The decreasing strength of the Cao clan was mirrored by the decline of Shu. After &lt;a title="Zhuge Liang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhuge_Liang"&gt;Zhuge Liang&lt;/a&gt;'s death, his position as &lt;a title="Chancellor of China" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chancellor_of_China#History"&gt;Lieutenant Chancellor&lt;/a&gt; fell to &lt;a title="Jiang Wan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiang_Wan"&gt;Jiang Wan&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a title="Fei Yi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fei_Yi"&gt;Fei Yi&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Dong Yun" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dong_Yun"&gt;Dong Yun&lt;/a&gt;, in that order. But after 258, Shu politics became increasingly controlled by the eunuch faction and corruption rose. Despite the energetic efforts of &lt;a title="Jiang Wei" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiang_Wei"&gt;Jiang Wei&lt;/a&gt;, Zhuge's &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Protege" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protege"&gt;protege&lt;/a&gt;, Shu was unable to secure any decisive achievement. In 263, Wei launched a three-pronged attack and the Shu army was forced into general retreat from Hanzhong. Jiang Wei hurriedly held a position at &lt;a class="new" title="Jian'ge (page does not exist)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jian%27ge&amp;amp;action=edit&amp;amp;redlink=1"&gt;Jian'ge&lt;/a&gt; but he was outflanked by the Wei commander &lt;a title="Deng Ai" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deng_Ai"&gt;Deng Ai&lt;/a&gt;, who force-marched his army from Yinping through territory formerly considered impassable. By the winter of the year, the capital Chengdu fell due to the strategic invasion of Wei by Deng Ai who invaded Chengdu personally. The emperor &lt;a title="Liu Shan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Shan"&gt;Liu Shan&lt;/a&gt; thus surrendered. The state of Shu had come to an end after forty-three years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Falls of Wei&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Cao Huan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Huan"&gt;Cao Huan&lt;/a&gt; succeeded to the throne in 260 after &lt;a title="Cao Mao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Mao"&gt;Cao Mao&lt;/a&gt; was killed by &lt;a title="Sima Zhao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Zhao"&gt;Sima Zhao&lt;/a&gt;. Soon after, Sima Zhao died and his title as Lord of Jin was inherited by his son &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Sima Yan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Yan"&gt;Sima Yan&lt;/a&gt;. Sima Yan immediately began plotting to become Emperor but faced stiff opposition. However, due to advice from his advisors, Cao Huan decided the best course of action would be to abdicate, unlike his predecessor Cao Mao. Sima Yan seized the throne in 264 after forcing Cao Huan's abdication, effectively overthrowing the Wei Dynasty and establishing the successor &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Jin Dynasty (265-420)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jin_Dynasty_(265-420)"&gt;Jin Dynasty&lt;/a&gt;. This situation was similar to the deposal of &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Han Xiandi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_Xiandi"&gt;Emperor Xian&lt;/a&gt; of the Han Dynasty by &lt;a title="Cao Pi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cao_Pi"&gt;Cao Pi&lt;/a&gt;, the founder of the Wei Dynasty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Falls of Wu&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Following Sun Quan's death and the ascension of the young &lt;a title="Sun Liang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Liang"&gt;Sun Liang&lt;/a&gt; as emperor in 252, the kingdom of Wu went into a period of steady decline. Successful Wei suppression of rebellions in the &lt;a title="Huainan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huainan"&gt;Huainan&lt;/a&gt; region by &lt;a title="Sima Zhao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Zhao"&gt;Sima Zhao&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="Sima Shi" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Shi"&gt;Sima Shi&lt;/a&gt; reduced any opportunity of Wu influence. The fall of Shu signaled a change in Wei politics. After Liu Shan surrendered to Wei, &lt;a class="mw-redirect" title="Sima Yan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sima_Yan"&gt;Sima Yan&lt;/a&gt; (grandson of Sima Yi), overthrew the Wei emperor and proclaimed his own dynasty of Jin in 264, ending forty-six years of Cao dominion in the north. After Jin's rise, Emperor &lt;a title="Sun Xiu" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Xiu"&gt;Sun Xiu&lt;/a&gt; of Wu died, and his ministers left the throne to &lt;a title="Sun Hao" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Hao"&gt;Sun Hao&lt;/a&gt;. Sun Hao was a promising young man, but upon ascension he became a tyrant, killing or exiling all who dared oppose him in the court. In 269 Yang Hu, Jin commander in the south, started preparing for the invasion of Wu by ordering the construction of a fleet and training of marines in Sichuan under Wang Jun. Four years later, &lt;a title="Lu Kang" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Kang"&gt;Lu Kang&lt;/a&gt;, the last great general of Wu, died, leaving no competent successor. The planned Jin offensive finally came in the winter of 279. Sima Yan launched five simultaneous offensives along the Yangzi River from Jianye to Jiangling whilst the &lt;a title="Sichuan" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sichuan"&gt;Sichuan&lt;/a&gt; fleet sailed downriver to Jing province. Under the strain of such an enormous attack, the Wu forces collapsed and &lt;a title="Jianye" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jianye"&gt;Jianye&lt;/a&gt; fell in the third month of 280. Emperor Sun Hao surrendered and was given a &lt;a title="Fiefdom" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiefdom"&gt;fiefdom&lt;/a&gt; to live out his days on. This marked the end of the Three Kingdoms era, and the beginning of a break in the upcoming 300 years of chaos&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok that's the History!!!
