As per the PV I posted a little under two weeks ago, here's a live performance of the second Itazura na Kiss ending theme, "Jikan yo Tomare" ("Hey Time, Stop"). While this was originally in glorious HD, it obviously didn't translate over nearly as well in streaming format, but it does showcase how well AZU and SEAMO can perform live. Unfortunately, this is only a short version of the song and doesn't quite have the same effect as a pumped up crowd on Music Station, but is nice regardless.

On a related note, I've been slowly catching up on the series when I get a chance to and feel the urge to mention something about it given this opportunity. While refraining from mentioning any spoilers, I can understand that the series is trying to show us the "complete relationship" between Kotoko and Naoki from beginning to end (something that isn't done in a lot of anime adaptations), but I couldn't help but feel that the events in episode fourteen came across somewhat abruptly. If you've been following the series, you'll probably know what I'm talking about, but if you don't, perhaps it'll peek your interest enough to check it out yourself.

In any case, comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome as always.
