Oh yeah, got my OOO/Goseiger 3D blu-ray on Friday. I don't foresee any problems with doing the 2D stuff off this

Birth Birth
 
Guess this week's theme is Birth

OOO 20 released

The word:
Ibaru 威張る 【いばる】 (v5r) to be proud, to swagger, (P)
The i in this stands for majestic, but it also means to intimidate or be menacing. Baru/haru means to stick/stick out. A word that evokes the image of a person sticking out their chest proudly

OOO 19 released

OOO

You count the Medals 1, 2, 3!

The word:
Fukueki 服役 【ふくえき】 (n) penal servitude, military service, (P)
This one baffles me a bit. Fuku means clothes, and eki/yaku means role. Maybe it has some story behind how it came into being

HeartCatch 47 released

The Word: Hikkomijian 引っ込み思案 【ひっこみじあん】 (n) shy, withdrawn
Kind of a lot of kanji in this one. The kanji that compose it are "to pull" "within" "thought" and "stability". You see where this is going?

Kamen Rider OOO 18 released

HinaHinaHina
The theme of this week is that Hina is cute. Does anyone know if models are required to pose like that though?
 Seems like kind of an awkward pose

 

BoukenRed Let's balance it out by talking about the guest of this plot, Takahashi Mitsuomi, or BoukenRed as you guys probably know him. Man, has it really been five years since Boukenger (since they were the last anniversary series)?

OOO 18 released

All Riders
We have this special promo that includes this screen shot this week. What is it? It's a list of many, many names. It's pretty impressive, take a moment to go through them.

The word:
Konpon 根本 【こんぽん】 (n) origin, source, foundation, root, base, principle, (P)
Kon means "root" and hon/pon means "book", although in this case means "main, head"

R5
So most people know by now that the new Rider is played by R5/ Iwanaga Hiroaki. The guy is hilarious, you should read his blog. In particular, I want to include his blog entry from right after his first appearance in Kamen Rider:
http://ameblo.jp/hiroaki-iwanaga/entry-10748960679.html
"As for Kamen Rider, I'm going to dash into the New Year's and rampage! Cute baby-tachi, don't fall in love with me! Good! My heart's been scaled before. No wait, sorry, I'm so tired that I'm going a bit nuts"

HeartCatch 46 released

The word:
Munashii 空しい 【むなしい】 (adj) vacant, futile, vain, void, empty, ineffective, lifeless, (P)
Thought this would be an interesting word to mention because the kanji for that means sky usually, but it's also used for space/vacuum

New Year's release: OOO 16 released

OOO

How fitting, last release of the year, OOO 16

The word:
Semeru 攻める 【せめる】 (v1) to attack, to assault, (P)
In this episode it's not used literally. See if you can hear how it's used

OOO 14 released

Bonus pic

Yes, everything Ankh does is product placement

OOO 14 released

The word:
Shinpaku 心拍 【しんぱく】 (n) heart rate
Shin/heart is a great kanji to know, but do you recognize the white radical in paku? If you know the radicals, sometimes you can guess the sound, like haku/paku comes from the kanji for white. You'll see a lot of the kanji attributed to haku will have the kanji for white in them since it's the main one

The word:
Shittou 執刀 【しっとう】 (n,vs) performing a surgical operation
Using the kanji for taking and the kanji for a blade. If you remember Shinkenger, then Shippitsu should make sense: 執筆 【しっぴつ】 (n) writing, (P) since pitsu means brush. See a pattern?

OOO 12 released

Sazers

Remember GranSazers?

OOO 12 released

Today's word:

Netamu 妬む 【ねたむ】 (v5m) to be jealous, to be envious, (P)
If you know basic kanji, I'm sure you'll notice that netamu is made from woman and stone. Hmmm...
