STILL STILL Bumuhos Man ang Ulan...

Okay, you got me, I'm still obsessed by the "Bumuhos Man ang Ulan" tune. One day, this would be my ringtone and I would often hear this theme song from Green Rose all day.

Anyway, as I heard from someone at Japan, back on April 18, the author of the Japanese light novel titled MM! (日本名:えむえむっ!), Mr. Akinari Matsuno, died.

Obituary to MM! light novel author,
Akinari Matsuno


For those who don't know what's MM!, it's a light novel serialized on Media Factory's MF Bunko J. It highlights on some masochist named Taro Sado. We saw him fell in love with a woman who is in fact, a cross-dressing male named Tatsukichi Hayama. To get rid of Taro's masochism, he seeks help from Mio Isurugi and Arashiko Yuno, the only girl who made Taro a masochist. In the beginning, this light novel spawned to drama CDs and later on it spawned an anime series aired from October to December 2010 by 12 episodes. Talk about freak insanity happened on this light novel.

10 volumes were published and with Matsuno-sensei's death, the MM story remains left untold and unfinished.

I guess this is a sad fate and it's "Bumuhos Man ang Ulan" for us.
