Zero no Tsunami F is the final and last sequel to "Familiar of Zero" series.
I am very excited to review this show as this was also a pathway for me to enjoy and love anime. Please start with season one.

Zero no Tsunami F and it's prequel may be your classic harem with a Tsusendere and a average boy as your main character with lots of girls surrounding him but this is worth the watch. Giving this show a 8 was a solid score surrounding this series as a whole but could have exceeded my expectations even more.

When looking at the 2 main ... character which are Louise and Saito. You can really say that there relationship is funny, cute and overdramatic at certain times. When the manga was being adapted into an anime I was surprised that it lasted so long with four seasons completed. Tbh I think everyone had a thrilling ride watching this show.

Knowing this was a romantic comedy with a magic theme that had been included gave it a refreshing feeling to the viewer as each sometimes episode contained a element of randomness which gave us a comedic and light refreshing feel towards the show.

The anime begins by continuing to describe the adventures that follow the "Hero" Hiraga, Saito and the "unique women" called Le Blanc de La Vallière, Louise Francoise Better known as (Zero Louise) whom has a funny but cute relationship. Reference to the first season is where Saito appears from the human world to Tristein Academy.

This anime includes other genres such as comedy and drama that is centred around the main characters. The magic and dramatic elements are given at unexpected moments but that builds up the enjoyment. This however creates a very unique and always different situations between the main characters, but when we observe this situation we can a new picture that is created when a new cloud always get painted over the old. When watching the show you know these characters have a sense of little or no maturity at all (Really pushing it Louise there) and gives them the ability to tackle new challenges with awesome but hilarious methods. This type of lifestyle gives a pretty accurate description of the whole anime and it is pretty different from your usual romantic comedy that we occasionally see from time to time.

I find the pacing of the show to be slow/moderate in the viewers point but I am not judge. It tells us a story in a suitable manner that is executed with minor or no flaws at all. This allows the viewer to be entertained with none or little mood swings. If the series was any slower or faster I might have to change my thoughts on the shows progression.

Being a romantic comedy anime, It all comes down to Familiar of Zero being able to give us comedic and straight in the face lines. The interactions between different characters gives us different moments in were we just laugh hysterically or cry. You can relate to the characters emotions shown by facial expressions and the uneasy movement they might produce. Being a comedic anime I am certain it will make you laugh and give dramatic moments where you will not feel at ease.

Zero no Tsukami is a good way to enter a romantic comedy where you will be laugh away. When the audience try's to understand the characters I think they will judge them by there personality and how they interact and develop new bonds and feelings which tighten the show all together. This gives the audience a small feeling of the characters current emotions.
The comedy and drama may not seem new to most but with the addition of random twists and characters gives light to a whole new drama. on Classical comedy being one of them, It depends if the viewer has enjoyed it in which it has altered the opinion of the viewer towards the series. However having some magic included will also draw the audience closer and will have a significant influence on there overall opinion of the show.

Again having not read the manga I wouldn't presume that the anime is way off from its paper counterpart.

Having magic integrated into the show gives it a new light.

The anime try to tackle the development of relationships between characters through dramatic or random situations and through interactions and actions done by the characters which little by little develops more and more. The difference this show has compared to others of the same genre is how the characters are portrayed and overly influenced. We see the story from the main 2 characters however there is parts that give the views of the other characters as they encounter new challenges and develop new feelings towards them and others.
Thus telling us Zero no Tsukami gives us an enjoyable watch to take in and remember.
The design of the characters is well based given the date for this show and its prequel with little or some difference in facial features and expression.

The setting is wonderful and gives us a magical theme by the use of different light schemes and scenery. The colour used is simplistic and elegant giving a bright view of the setting.

Concluding this review. Zero no Tsukami was giving a different feel compared to its recommendations. I did not know wether I was gonna enjoy it or be completely bored and mad but I am glad I am safe as this turned to be an very good show whom anyone can enjoy no matter your age.

Thanks for reading

As I have dropped this series when completing chater 65, I don't think it I will be able to write a decent review as of now. The reason for the drop is the deep emotional impact and scars it has left me with.
However let me remind you that this one of the most unique mangas out there. This is a must read for everyone and anyone.

Oyasumi Punpun (Goodnight Punpun) can be described as a best selling book when comparing it to Harry potter, however it is in a form of a manga and targets a specific audience. This manga describes REALITY by introducing the main ... character called punpun. We are following the story by his view of reality. Although there some chapters in the story that will describe the life of the other characters. The author try's to deal with all day issues concerning individual human beings such as Redemption, Jealousy, Sex, Anger. The author really try's to keep the story to the point of realism that it increases the depth of our view of the world while moving the plot by raising the bar very very very high.

Another subject this manga tackles perfectly is the art. I am always left speechless as I turn each page. The amount of detail is incredible and incomparable to any manga I have read. If you start reading this manga you will see the segnifigence this mangaka try's to potray by the way each scene is drawn and perfectly executed. The characters such as his family ie The father and mother seems to us to be drawn by a 10 year old and the reason is due to the PunPun's attachment to them. It tells us he doens't care about those types of people who he engages with daily. However this adds weight to the overall story and gives significant effect to later development in the story.

The characters are another great peice that adds flavour to the overall effect this manga is trying to produce. The rate of development of these characters are consirded in great depth that keeps drawing the reader ever closer to PunPun's world. However as a reader I would say I have very different opinions about each and every character introduced in the manga. This is due to their extreme difference in behaviour and personalitys. You will like some or you will hate some but your views will change as the story progresses further.

Overal this is a must read story but beware of the effects it will leave you with in every single chapter. The amount of emotional unbalance that this has provided me with gave me pain and sorrow and maybe this due to me having a weak heart. However if you have the guts please be my guest to go on a roller coaster of life changing experiences. If I say to my self that I have enjoyed the manga up till now? The answer I would say be DEFNETILY YES.

I am deeply sorry that I could not write a serious review as I just cant complete this masterpeice of manga. I hope you enjoyed this short and thoughtfull review.
Thank You

Giving this a 10/10 is not that surprising considering the huge fan base surrounding this show. It has been some time since I watched the sequel to code geass but I think I still have the memory to write a decent review on the show.

Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch R2 is a sequel to the previous which delivers the same or a greater form of entertainment to the audience. However there is a quite a difference between the 2 seasons. The use of more dramatic and emotional scenes gives the audience an even greater attachment to the series. Thus giving us a fresh and new ... look towards the show. This can be symbolized by the characters, settings or even the dialogue. When the audience is introduced to a second season we don't know if it will be a greater show or a complete mess .

Code Geass R2 is the continuation of the war between the Black Knights and the Holy Britannian Empire. However in any action sequel the characters will meet new foes, allies and fight against there "destined rival". There are ever greater and better plot twists in the sequel as they are either unexpected or just plain spectacular, due to the use of this method we are always hooked to the screen cringing are teeth of each and every single development in future episodes.
A basic statement that would describe the other characters would be "Just there" as the main theme of the show is Lelouch and his plan of conquering Britannia.

The characters in this show have great development by the use of emotions and individual actions and designs they make in the show have great effect on the outcome in any situation provided, This signifies us to learn more in greater depth of the characters personality, traits and future vision. Providing we get to the know the characters better. We slowly start to feel some type emotional attachment to each one of them this is due to the increase in character growth the show seems to put forward in this sequel. However when we look at the main character in the series the great Lelouch, We as age wise or personal preference's find more interesting that draws us even close to his way of thinking. We have the scenario explained by his views. The use of ever changing relationships between Lelouch and the characters drives the plot forward and gives it even greater depth.

The art of R2 compared to season 1 uses a more vivid texture in each setting. The use of lighting is pretty well done. The characters facial features and expressions are crisp and well thought out while having the background setting realistic to a certain extent which overall heightens the emotional and physiological impact in different scenes including the spectacular movement of vehicles and soldiers fighting giving a quite a site to spectate. However comparing the animation to the current year it is pretty out-dated but this does not effect the shows performance in giving us great entertainment.

The sound in my point of view is to be considered good.
The music (including the sudden songs in different scene) fits in pretty well in each and every scene and gives a properly nice impression overall. The opening is pretty spectacular, it gives you a sense of depth and excitement.

Now the question is how well I like the final series, Well the answer is simple.
Completed all the episodes through the morning and well into the night (5am) all on a 50Inch 1080p Smart HDTV. You can now understand the impact this show gave me just through the start of episode 1.

To sum up Code Geass R2 is a series of pure enjoyment and hyper excitement which leaves literally breathless. Your eyes will be glued to the screen with a need for the toilet to be kept a minimum. To sum up the series in one word "Blockbuster".

I heavily recommend to watch the previous season to gain and feel the impact this show will bring you.
Thank you for reading

Anywhere we go in the world. There is bullying although it may only seem to apply to children but anyone can be victimised, forgotten which can make them angry, sad, depressed or even TAKE there own lives. We can not stop this completely as its integrated into are society however we can make the world a better place. Ask yourself this question if you are bullying someone. "Why do I do it?, How does it make me feel?". Of course the awnser might be obvious but the action is completly different. "You can change things in this world, however one thing you cannot change is ... the past". I am pretty sure anyone has regrets in there life and maybe there will be more in the future. That's why it's better to take action now the later cause I am sure you will suffer in silence. You can ask for forgiveness from the victim but you cannot take his/her past experiences. It's an engraving which has been permanently marked into their memory. The solution to mask this is by creating memories with laughter and happiness.

For people to bully others. There must be a reason why try do it?. Of course there are complete idiots in this world who think nothing and feel nothing. Anyone must have experience this in school and even saw it happening. Most humans are kind and respectable but there who look a blind eye and turn around walking away from the scene.

When we are bullied we either ignore it and suffer in silence or take action. This in turn effects our behaviour and furthermore effects the people around you.

Koe no Katachi or the silent voice (In english) takes the above points and gives a story by giving amazing depth into characters, plot and most importantly development.

The manga artist sure knew how to make reality into non fiction. The emotions, setting, characters and even down to there appearances. All were a mirror of life in motion.

But it doesn’t stop there. Ishida Shouya knew his mistakes and he made himself go under heavy change just to meet and pay back what he has done to Nishimiya Shouko. He worked hard to the best of abilities to ensure he has no "Regrets".

Although he knew an apology would not get him anywhere he would try his best to ensure he will compesate his past.

Knowing your realtionships with friends, relatives and any other person is a key factor in your life. You can either be sad or happy choosing one will lead you to your goal but choose wisely as this is your ultimate descion.

You will look at your past one day and see that a better future might be waiting for you. If you cant change the past please remember that you can STILL change the future.

This story will carry your emotions and your soul. Get ready for a ride which gives you a greater or even a little more view of the world.



Thanks for reading.

******* NO SPOILERS *******



Little do we know in romance manga that there is not much further development in romance between couples. However asking myself the question we were to be paired up with our other half. It would be great right? Well this review is will be just looking at that one statement.

Knowing this manga was short I wasn't not going to be surprised by the romantic development however as soon I finished the first arc. I knew this was something different, The need for more was always itching at the back of my neck. Even though I finished with the first partners and was ... very happy with the outcome.

Sore wa Totsuzen Unmei no Aite ga describes the daily of 4 couples bounded by their 'Destiny' thought the coupling system, The writer really knew how to engage in every individual couple by setting a unique story focusing on each one differently. However they are not your average couple situation meetings with comedy and randomness but with a gene assesment that is carried out by a company when you are 14 years old which implements you in the coupling system which help people find their 'perfect' matches that when in love would offspring of great capabilities due to the compatibility of the couples genes.

So every couple you will see in the manga will have a different story to the one before thus making it a fun and intresting way of different types of characterisations and situations you will see between them giving you a sense of accomplishment in every arc. This due to the characters being very funny and audience engaging in their own way. Although each couple have their own way of engaging in the manga but it still boils down to the same setting and place.

From the art style I think is very creative and makes each scenes with the characters more engaging with the audience giving us a feeling we are actually there watching the story between the couples unfold.

Here is a brief summary of the story being unfolded thought the different couples

Yuuchi and Manami
This is an insect coupling that was displayed by the system and to me it was a start of a very funny relationship. It includes an older brother and his younger sister. It is very funny and cute. Their progress in their relationship which makes me laugh so much.

Jun and Mai
A coupling between the school idol a normal teenager (With some background). This arc was more funny and a lot of scenes were classed as being ecchi. The girl (Mai) writes novel which are adult based but she is known as among the best writers which is paired with a odd but very nice guy (Jun)

Nobukui and Muki
This one really was interesting but that might be due to with my intrestes. it includes the daily life of 2 gamers who are coupled which sparks a romantic development between them in the real and virtual world.

Takuya and Shiori
Finally we have a coupling wait for it............. Between 2 cousins both being suprised due to their differences regarding family issues, However they thought by using opportunity they might be able to bring a hault a family issue regarding their parents. In doing so they are getting more attracted to each other by the solving their situation.


Overall this manga is very good in bringing diffrent storys through the same setting but giving us a completly different view of characters who are thrown in these sitituations. This gives the reader a pleasure of enjoying the characters grow and develop in many different ways. I would highly recommend it if you are into Comedy and 'fast' romance (Due to the amount of chapters)

This was my first time trying out manga so I asked myself why not try a romance for a start. Wow I made the right choice by picking Horimya. When reading the synopsis of this manga I thought from my experience it was going to be pretty unique in its own way thus came this review.

Horimiya is not your normal high school boy meets girl and they somehow get attracted attracted to one another. Its has a very diffrent feel First it is very refresing to see how the characters relationship will develop as the chapters progress. It's slow paced but boy it makes ... you wanna read more. You just don't know what's coming around the corner. It can be unpredictable at times or straight in your face *laughs* sorry reminded me of a scene.

Though I don't want to say this your average high school in an anime or manga it is definitely not. It takes more of different approach on the character which makes you more........
'Interested' but not your average approach but like very in to it. Though you might compare this with a shojou where there a lot of romantic scenes. This one is more in your face wow where did that come from reaction. Hori and Miyamura relationship is not one where you find in a romance manga or anime. It is more driven by the main characters interactions with each other that increases the feelings they have for one another.

So lets now look into the characters, This is where it stands out. The main character, Hori is not the character that just falls in love straight away. Though it may not seem. Like it at first she is very nice but then she is unpredictable although self coniscous and very reliable at the same time. She is given the charecteristics that all of us might be able to agree with. However the other main character Miyamura is the complete oposite of that, the uneasy aura and weirdness that he spreads unconsciously brings others to think hes a sadist otaku that plays with figurines and what otakus do. However once we get to know him more we see he is a reliable and kind protagonist that really is the basis of a good manga of this kind. Thus the 2 characters are mostly compatible with one another which brings us to the start of their relationship.

Now lets talk about the other characters ie the side characters. However we do see them occasionally there is a sense of satisfaction that they are in the scene. My fav supporter would be Horus father, he is funny and surprisingly like a hurdle to Miyamura. The other characters also add to the excitement of the story.

Note That I am just starting out reading manga and this was my second manga I have read up till now I can am judging on the mangaka on how he takles the art. It is your average art but how it is used in every scene makes it more alive. As if you were actually feeling the characters emotion and thoughts. Thus giving the reader a huge intrest in the story.

In conclusion Horimiya is one where you can't miss and a must read. It makes you want to read more and more and trys to bring you into a deeper insight of love that may seem slow but blooms like a flower. Slow though beautiful .
Thanks for reading. :)

Sorry if this was short and maybe you didn't like it but all in all please try it out.
