Avenue Q and Hyouka

We saw Avenue Q yesterday and it was awesome! They got some real good singers, although the one playing Trekie Monster really stole the show. During "The Internet Is Porn" song, he just stares at the audience for long silent moment. (Course, he was probably waiting for us to stop laughing so he could continue). There were a couple of moments when the puppets lips were quite insync with the lyrics, but it was done by volunteers. I'm not going to complain about that. Over all, it was a great show.

Apparently, the same company is going to attempt to do Xanadu as well. I might go and see that too.

In anime news, I've currently been watching Hyouka which is the latest series by Kyoto animation.

I would call it a slice of life anime, but it's a bit more than that. The main character Oreki is able to figure out everyday mysteries fairly quickly in his head once he gets all the fact. However, he doesn't do it very often because he's lazy and believes he should conserve energy as much as possible. However, he does join the literally club thanks to his pushing older sister.

It is there he meets Chitanda who loves mysteries and keeps asking Oreki to try to solve them and he often gives in. (Which is she asks "I'm Curious!" and she stares at him with her big puppy dog eyes and then he caves) I like Chitanda, she's like a calm version of Haruhi if that makes any sense.

Overall, I've really been enjoying it so far. Plus, the opening song is catchy.
