The First Blogger Recognition Award in 2016 of Yahari Bento!

Please let me express my gratitude to these lovely bloggers…

1. Animetai – I’m not sure your blog was made for the sake of an English class assignment only. I like how you use images to make reader feel the same emotions like those characters feel. I don’t why I can’t explain how great your blog is.
2. @avathenerd (her blog is Reads,Rhythms and Ruminations) – If you are Otaku+Bookworm like me and her, how can you miss this blog?
3. Mel in Anime Land – This blog would install F1 engine. There’re various posts you might be full found there.
4. Moderately Klassy – Thanks for your anime challenges, Gankutsuou anime has beautiful artwork. This anime reminds me Sayanara Zetsubou Sensei since it often showed unique artwork.
5. Risembool Ranger Anime Reviews – Tons of anime reviews for you. I started to be interesting The Ancient Magus’s Bride anime because of review from this blog. Many thanks!

for nominating Yahari Bento for The Blogger Recognition Award. Wow! Everything has the first time. So I will treasure it. Thank you so much for thinking of me when you did this nomination. (>v<) If I am nominated this award again, I will update.

Rules

1. Display Award
2. Thank the person who gave you this award (and include a link to her/his blog).
3. Give a brief story of how your blog started.
4. Give two pieces of advice for new bloggers.
5. Summon Nominate 15 bloggers from the magic circle.

How my blog started?

1. The story started when I browse to log in page of WordPress site. After I logged in, I clicked at “My sites” > “Add a New Site”.
2. Did as WordPress site guide me, choose name for my blog. And blah blah blah, …done. I got Yahari Bento!! blog.

My “how to” is stupid, please don’t throw any object near you. Or don’t transform to Hiratsuka-sensei and crush me with the first bullet!

This blog descended from the sky because I want to write what I found out about the secret in Oregairu. If you’re Oregairu’s fan like me, you might want to know who is “Y” of Hayama Hayato, the male character in Oregairu. Until today, people gave many assumptions who is that person. I too, want to know who she is. So after I read in LN over & over, I decided to write what I found out.

My choices are forums, social networks or blog. But if I want to write some lonnnnnng analysis, I don’t think forums or any social networks will be the best choices because of many reasons. In blog, I can write as much as I need, & I can paste images in my post as I want. WordPress blog is suitable to read in desktop, tablet & smartphones too. After I found the suitable platform to write analysis, this blog was born.

Advice for new bloggers?

Learn from many sources.

I will not tell you to write whatever you like because you would do that anyway. So as for new blogger, I am not professional in blogging so I suggest you to read how to write good post from many sites. I admit some sites are so so to me, but I read some unique posts from somewhere (I forgot the name of those sites) and they gave me very useful tips. Blog is your diary but you write post so people can visit & read your work.

Blogroll

Blogroll is not popular like in the past, but I’m not sure it can’t help you. I have my Sushi roll page to exchange blog link with others and even banner exchange. It’s like portal to another blog, but when you exchanged your blog link with other blogs, some people from blogs you exchanged link, will teleport to your blog too. I can notice this from Stat page.

ps. If you want to exchange your own blog link with my blog, you can jump to Sushi roll page above to read some info. Don’t be shy, OK? Because I’m shy more than you. ;9
