I finally have a chance to pitch in a vote for my absolute favorite webtoon.

Over the years i have picked up series and enjoyed them. I've gotten obsessed with keeping up with all sorts of manga and then grown bored with them weeks or months later. My tastes have have changed and all sorts of series i liked don't interest me any longer.

The only series that has consistently stuck with me is TOG. The only series that I've been keeping up with for years and still get excited week per week for goes to this magnificent piece of art.

Please do yourself a service and ... read this.
I promise you wont regret it if you have any misgivings about the art know it gets vastly better.

Ketsuekigata-kun! 2 is slightly better than S1 in my opinion and vastly superior to the dreadful special. But still less than average.

For me what it all boils down to however is its a comedy and I didn't find it funny due to the cultural translation. And if you remove the humor nothing much happens.

Now I'm not trying to scare you off if you liked the first season I definitely say you should watch s2 as well cause its a improvement on s1.

plus the whole season is only 24 minutes of your time so even if its sub par its over and done with in no ... time at all.

Ketsukigata-kun is a comedy with a certain type of blood type humor (I wasn't that fond of it) but at least it had humor and wasn't too long.

However this special feels like above all else an advertisement and while it was kinda nice having the blood types seen as females if you continue on to season two of Ketsukigata-kun you can see em there without haveing to put up with them telling you about the sales that are going on and how you can buy the original series on disk.

keep in mind I didn't really like the main series but this special is dreadful and ... not worth the two minutes of your time.

I believe this special is better than its parent.

Oneechan ga Kita is a rather short and sub par sis-con series. on the level of Kiss x Sis but without the fan-service.

Its an unfunny comedy with each episode being a sketch finishing in a bland punch line involving the sister coming on to the brother and then him after initially being put off he starts to think it may not be that bad.


However after watching the special I feel like it wasn't that bad.
Hear me out-the special wasn't amazing in fact it was pretty average, however it actually had a conclusive story over the full 4 ... minutes. This special tells of the sister and the borther's meeting and the sister's obsession with having a sibling.

I would not recommend the series as a whole but if you have already sat through the rest of the series I say its best to watch this as well-its only 4 minutes after all.

Just a flashback episode of gintama-most of it is reused and thus its one of the lowest rating I've given for a gintama special...think those episodes that happen at the end of every season where all the main characters gather around and talk about how the last season went...However its still gintama and I need to watch everything that has to do with one of my favorite series.

Its kinda cool watching the voice actors preform their bits live...some of the VA's match their characters others are surprising.

I would recommend if your a hardcore fan of gintama otherwise its your choice whether you want to ... bother with it.

Durarara!!x2 Shou: Watashi no Kokoro wa Nabe Moyou is a wonderful addition to a great series.

To be perfectly honest this special is not needed. You can watch the main series and not miss anything major-HOWEVER just because it is not needed to progress the story does not necessarily mean its not enjoyable. In fact I'd have to say I really enjoyed this special.
What stands out first and foremost in Durarara is the characters-and this special perfectly highlights the characters that make Durarara so great.
You spend the majority of the episode learning more about the backstory of several of the characters as they sit ... around a hotpot.

If you are a fan I say this special is a must watch.

This series has several flaws-however I simply didn't care. Based on enjoyment alone I'm giving this show a higher rating than I usually do.

The largest flaw I can see after completing Rokka is its completely convoluted attempt at a mystery. It gives you no chance to figure out "whodunnit" on your own and uses magic to explain how events came to pass. (even more annoying magic that you do not already know about)

The second complementary flaw is how while Rokka no Yuusha is primarily a action show it spends its whole time centered around its convoluted mystery.

Now I see these two major flaws and ... several minor ones however I can honestly say I don't care. I went into Rokka with no expectations and was entertained on every episode. I feel the best way to enjoy rokka is to not have any preconceptions and to not spend your time trying to figure out a impossible mystery.

I found this show enjoyable if only for the fact that the magic/animation of magic was really cool.

also the world and events like the (spoiler) magic tournament thing with breaking ice towers and magic surf boarding was fun.

thats it...

I could not connect with the main character ether by loving him or hating him.
He seemed to be incredibly overpowered in terms of magic. A bunch of the show seemed to be proving how amazing the main character is-all the things he can do. also the characters surrounding him were a typical harem and didn't stand out in my view.

I would still recommend this show because some ... of the fight scenes/events in the tournament were fun and the art was pretty good but don't pick this up for the plot/cahacters
