When I first started watching this anime, i didn't know exactly what to expect from it, but as soon as i started i knew exactly what i got myself into.

KimiKiss Pure Rouge was originally a dating simulation game for the PS2. Released by Enterbrain in 2006. It quickly gained popularity and become a media franchise which turned it into a light novel as well as a manga series. Then in 2007-2008 this anime adaptation was relased.

If your into the stereotypical romance, drama, school life genres, then KimiKiss Pure Rouge is a must watch. Its an anime full of love triangles, a hint of drama, ... & beautiful girls, all within a school setting. This series was great anime, comparable to the Amagami SS series which was later relased in 2009.

Story: I decided to give the story a 7/10 because of its commonness. Its basically your typical love story, not much true story to it, just mostly romance between many main male characters and female characters. The story generally confuses you and provides a lot of love triangles and confusion. It typically keeps you guessing on who will end up with who. By the end it just kinda get a little repetitive, but overall it was okay.

Art: The art in this anime was fairly well done. Cute characters, a variety of locations to see, nice scenery's, etc. Pretty good overall, nothing else to add i gave the art a 8/10

Sound: Well in this anime the Opening is the same for the whole 24 episodes, it changes a little bit about halfway through i'd say around ep 13, I found it fairly appealing no complaints, it fits the story well. As for the ending themes, they were split into two separate themes which divided the anime in half, 12 eps each theme. The first ending IMO was much better done than the 2nd one and fit the ending scenes much better. The soundtrack was alright. nothing extravagant so i decided to give the soundtrack a 7/10

Character: Well.... most of the characters were very much enjoyable throughout the series, only a few of them really ticked me off by the end.
Most were very stereotypical however: you got the assertive and playful older female Childhood friend, the two other average male childhood friends that she hung around with, a rich girl, a shy girl, a quiet guy, the tomboyl female lead, and two really annoying brats. You'll see them if you ever watch this.
As for the character development, i found it pretty good. One second you'd think that one character had an edge over another for getting with a guy, but another second everything would change, the character pairing always keeps you guessing throughout the show. so i gave characters a 8/10

Enjoyment: I enjoyed the series very much overall, spend most of my free time watching it over the span of 2 weeks and i'd even consider re-watching it, maybe in a few years. A very entertaining series that had the perfect romance story that i was looking for. For Enjoyment i gave it a 9/10

Overall: All and all, I really liked this anime and i'm sure its future viewers would enjoy it as well, If your looking for a romance plot, look no further! just watch KimiKiss Pure Rouge ! :D Overall since i can't give decimal ratings i'll just type it out. I'd give KimiKiss Pure Rouge a 8.5/10

Hope my review was helpful.

Ahh Good old Clannad,
I Consider this anime an orginal flawless title created by Jun Maeda & Key.

If you don't feel like reading a lot of text then I wouldn't suggest you take a look at my review.

This story follows the 17 year old boy protagonist and so called 'delinquent' named Okazaki Tomoya in his last year of High school. The story takes place primarily at a high school in a rural area Japan, which is the best school in the city.

This anime is a story reflects a sort of coming of age scheme in a manner.
Okazaki Tomoya is a teenager struggling to find ... his purpose in the the world.
The anime starts off with him stating that he absolutely hates the city he grew up in. He wishes for everything to change, and for his life to be deemed useful or meaningful instead of just plain boring all the time.
He is constantly faced with obstacles that test his abilities/sanity throughout the anime and overcomes most of them through sheer willpower and bonds with his old and newly found friends.
This anime also has the theme of Romance deeply portrayed through several of the leading female characters, who eventually end up falling in love with him.

This anime is mainly shown in a sort of narrative prospective in which you as the viewer are able to listen to Tomoya's thoughts and feelings on various situations and settings in the anime.

For those of you who don't know much about this anime.
It is actually Based on a Visual Novel made by the very own Jun Maeda and Key who also made other favous VN's and animes such as Kanon, and Air.

Well now for the actual Rating Scale and why I choose to rate it the way I did.

As for the story of Clannad. I gave it a 8/10 because I am a person that has actually played and beaten the Original Visual Novel of Clannad, and i must say that the anime is lacking a few of the key elements of the original story.
The Visual Novel followed a sort of route pattern that enabled the player to choose a specific route for a character and stick to it until they see that characters ending. Don't get me wrong I believe that they did a fine job depicting the Anime from the Visual Novel, but just a few things were missing. If you watched and played the anime and VN then you would know what i would mean. I felt that some of the loose ends weren't tied together well enough in this story so i did not give it a perfect score, thats all.

The art in this anime is practically flawless. The way the animators showed the backgrounds and characters were just phenomenal. Nothing else to add but that. i give the art a 9/10 not the best art I've ever seen, but its pretty high up in my list.

The sound oh my gosh. The soundtrack to this anime is absolutely breath taking. I love it. It fits and blends in with the setting and scenery's soo well, that you don't feel out of place at all. It's like a 100% natural fit in the anime's various locations around the city. The way the soundtrack blends with the characters appearances as well is just amazing. perfect score for me 10/10
If you ever watch this and also love the soundtrack, its available for download on various torrent sites, just search it up.

The Characters in this Anime are very unique in every aspect. Some may say that they follow various stereotypical characters, but i disagree. Each and everyone of them has personalities that grow on you and you just learn to love them. The reason I only gave Characters a 8/10 is because of the character development in this story. In this fairly short anime. you saw the appearance of 5 main female leads as well as a large span of other main characters. I believe that the character development in the anime Clannad was far to short lived. Perhaps because the Visual Novel took a longer amount of time to complete than the anime is the reason why the producers decided to cut short much of the character development within the story. Another reason why I gave it this rating would be because in the Visual Novel the protagonist Okazaki Tomoya actually gets in a relationship with all of the female leads. In the anime however it is not depicted this way. I felt that the anime could've been much better if it was.

Enjoyment: This anime was a very enjoyable anime to watch, i strongly suggest those who love the genres it provides to watch it as soon as they can because they're missing out on a lot of laughs, and a great story to view.
I enjoyed seeing the Visual Novel get put to life after playing it and all of the scenes were very well put together in this anime. i give enjoyment a 9/10

Overall: Overall I feel that this anime was a truly amazing one for me to lay my eyes on. It captured my attention throughout the course of watching it and kept me guessing the first time around to as of what would happen next.
If anyone hasn't seen it yet and read my extremely long review, you better get to watching ! I Give it a 9/10 Overall

I hope that this was helpful to those reading it. If not, then i'll try to do better next time. This is only my second review on this site, so i'll get better at this :)

*Before you read this you should check out reviews on Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai if you haven't seen the first season yet.

I Love the Story, great story in my opinion, Love the Devil & Human Cooperation. Its an original story that i respect very greatly, this time around its even better, introducing a new devil to the anime. Haqua FTW :)
9/10

The Art for this anime is spectacular, after watching a few more episodes of the series i changed my opinion on it. The animation is awesome in each and every episode i saw (excluding the first part of episode 1 but that was just ... for laughs) Each and every episode has something new to bring to it. The backgrounds aren't 100% original but what can you do about it? Its hard for anime directors to make an original piece of artwork these days and i feel that Kami Nomi zo Shiru Sekai II does an amazing job at that.
9/10

The Sound was also okay, the Openings & Endings could've been better. I liked the first season's much better, but i can't complain. The soundtrack is the same as the first season with a few alterations.
9/10

Characters in this season, oh gosh its gonna be an amazing line up, starting up with Kusunoki Kasuga, followed by Chihiro Kosaka, then Jun Nagase, and lastly my favourite of the season Haqua du Lot Herminium! =D The only reason why this category didn't recieve a 10/10 was because of Chihiro Kosaka, in my opinion she is the worst character arc in the series... wayy to bland of a character, not cutee, bad attitude and doesn't stand out at all.
very enjoyable character excluding Chihiro Kosaka.
9/10

Enjoyment - Very much enjoyable. You'd love this squeal to the first season. I guarantee that. It brings in a sort of refreshing aspect to the series introducing more problems, more information, better animation, better plot, and even more background. This time around, I'd say that this season is much more enjoyable than the first.
10/10

Overall I believe this anime series has carved itself into a category of its own, by portraying originality through the genres Comedy, Romance, Shounen, Harem, Supernatural. Lots of laughs, funny romance settings, and a story that i'd say is 100% in its own aspect. If you've already seen the first season you'd know what i mean. The manga is absolutely amazing, Wakaki Tamiki has astonishing creativity and imagination with his work, if you love the anime, you should check out the manga as well.
10/10 Overall

Much more to look forward to since its just begun, I hope that this anime will become much more popular than it is today, and continue to entertain its viewers, as much as it does to me.
