Hello everyone! Yes, I'm that girl who gave the first season of Da Capo II a 5 and bashed it! I'm very happy that I did gave the second season a chance. I'll tell you why. Enjoy my review (if you can)!

Story
What to say about the Story? Did it improved? Yes, it surely did. When I first started this I could already see that we finally get our Otome and Yume-moments, which I missed in the first season. The whole season is focussed on Otome and Yume who both seem to like their ''onii-chan'', Yoshiyuki. It's very easy to see how much Yume likes him, ... since we get lots of moments where she tries to be with him or blushes very hard. For Otome, it isn't really shown that she tries as hard as Yume but she hangs out with Yoshiyuki the most. Some weird accidents are happening which bothers Otome. Yoshiyuki notices this and helps her to investigate the weird accidents that happen every single day, and the weirdest thing, in none of them someone got hurt. Yoshiyuki and Otome both can use magic as well, and Otome refers herself as ''a magician of justice'' and tries to do something about the accidents. They later get involved with the Sakura Three and read that it can make your wishes come true. Ofcourse, they don't believe it, but Anzu tells them a story of a girl who made a wish to the Sakura Three, which was granted. It turns out that that girl was her. In each accident a girl with blond hair was seen by bypassers. Rara, who could it be?

Art
This might have improved a little from the first season as well. Even though there isn't alot of difference. I think the animation is well made and the characters move very naturally. The characterdesigns are good as well, I really like everyone's appearance!

Sound
Ah, the sound, the music... It's not the most special, but I DO like it. The opening-theme, Sakura Amaneku Sekai is sung by yozuca. I really like the background-music of the song and the singing isn't bad at all! It's nice to listen to it before the episode begins. Then, what about the ending-theme? It's Bokutachi no Yukue, sung by CooRie. Probably my favourite song from Da Capo II Second Season! I really like the calm feeling it gives you. For the background-music in the episodes, I think I heard it when it was needed. They do not over-use sounds but it's worth a 8.

Character
Improved! For sure. I'm kinda glad to see that Minatsu isn't in this season, one of the reasons I like this much more. Everyone else is still there, but I'm happy that Koko's role in the series isn't a main one anymore! The three main characters of this season are Yoshiyuki and the Asakura-sisters, Yume and Otome. I'm very glad that I got to see more of both of them, since their part in the first season was just a supporting part. I think they saved everything for the second season! I think that Yoshiyuki will pick one of them (Yume or Otome) at the end of this season, it's unclear for me who it will be. I personally hope that it will be Otome, because I don't really like Yume, she reminds me too much of Nemu (which I didn't like as well). But that's just my personal opinion, everyone can hope whatever they want!

Enjoyment
Enjoyment... well, I do enjoy this! If you want a very ''special, or something like that'' anime, then this isn't something for you. Even the second season doesn't have something that makes it stand out, but still, it's enjoyable to watch! I don't know why, even though it isn't special, the second season does have some kind of feeling when you watch it. This is great in days that you have nothing to do or just want to watch something!

Overall
Well, I LIKE following this and watching the episodes. This really surprised me when I look back at the first season again, which was just too boring. I might could have even skipped the first season, but hey, just watch it to say that you did. If you dropped the first season and haven't started on this one for that reason, or you did finish it and hated it, give the second season a chance! It's much better and you might, just as me, enjoy this one. I wouldn't hurt you to just try watching it, right? Especially the people who missed Otome and Yume SHOULD watch this!

Is this really the same girl who wrote the review about the first season? Yep, it's me! I hope you liked this one, and I ment what I wrote, I'm not gonna lie in my reviews. Thank you for reading my review!

Well, since some people exactly like my reviews, I decided to do another one. This time, it's Vampire Knight. I've only seen 3 episodes and read some manga chapters, even through I can't consider myself as the VK-girl that knows everything, I know quite alot about the story and the characters. Anyway, here we go!

Story - 100% [10]
If you haven't read the manga or saw some episodes of the anime, you'll probably already have an idea what this is about... Vampires. I say that you're right, but if you watch or read Vampire Knight, you'll find out that it's more than only ''vampires''. Let's start ... with the beginning.

Vampire Knight revolves between Yuki, Zero and Kaname. Yuki and Zero are Cross-Academy's prefects (guardians). It's their duty to prevent the contact between the Day and the Night-class, even through it's very hard for them because all the girls from the Day-class have a big crush on the guys from the Night-class, that's not very rare because everyone in the Night-class looks gorgeous. Why are prefects needed? To prevent the Day-class of finding out the secret from the Night-class, in reality, all of them are vampires. The ''leader'' of the Night-class is Kaname Kuran, the one who saved Yuki's life when she was little. Ofcourse he's a vampire too and the most powerful of all, a pureblood. Yuki and Zero both live with the chairmain of Cross-Academy, Cross Kaien. Yuki doesn't have any memories from when she was a kid, her memories begin on the day that Kaname saved her from a vampire. Kaname asked the chairman to look after her, and he did. The same goes of Zero, a couple of years later he comes to live with Yuki and the chairmain to, after his parents where killed by a vampire.

What is so loveable about all this? Both the anime and the manga have a mysterious feeling to it, that you know that something is going on but you don't know what. You'll also notice and the story gets ''darker'' each time, and that the characters change. It takes a while until you really understand everything because they tell you the story bit by bit, you may also expect some big changes, I warn you. I wish that I could tell you more, but I don't want to spoil it for you guys. I really recommend you guys both the manga and the anime.

Animation - 80% [8]
Well, the animation. I must say that it's alot better than I expected. Still, I know that alot of manga-fans might be dissapointed. The manga might have better art, but I think that the anime is really well made. They put alot of effort in this, and with succes. If the manga didn't excist, the anime would probably get higher ratings. Well, my opinion is that that the Vampire Knight anime is a good adaptation to the manga, I really think so.

Sound - 90% [9]
The sound, or better said, the music. The songs that the picked for both the opening and ending where really the right choice for this anime. Futatsu no Kodou to Akai Tsumi is the opening-song, sung by ON/OFF, and I really love it. It really matches the anime and gives you the Vampire Knight-feeling. I really like it. Then, for the ending-song, Still Doll sung by Wakeshima Kanon, was the biggest plus-point for me. I just loved it the first time that I heard it! How come? It's mysterious and matches Vampire Knight perfectly. When you listen to it, I'm sure that you'll also get the feeling that there's something that you don't know yet. For the soundeffects in this anime, I have nothing to complain. When you needed one, you got one, just how it is in real life. The good sound in Vampire Knight made it realistic.

Character - 100% [10]
Ha, this was a easy one. The characters, you'll absolutely love them when you get to know them! What is good about this is that you don't only get to know Yuki, Zero and Kaname, but also the other people from the Night-Class and other random characters. Let's take Aidou as an example, he's not a main character, still, you know exactly who he is! I'll tell you something about the 3 main characters now.

Yuki - I think that you all know her type of character, but Yuki is not the typical ''shoujo'' heroine. No, she's different. You can see that she tries her best to help Zero and get a place in his heart, she really cares alot for others, which might also be her weakness. To save Zero from turning into a Level E, she let him drink her blood. Yuki was attacked as a little girl by a vampire who was fallen to a Level E, and than was saved by Kaname. She has no memories of her parents or who she really is. Because Kaname saved her, she has a great affection for him, and she trusts the vampires in the Night-Class.

Zero - He might look like a cold-hearted guy in the beginning, but he really isn't. Zero's family where killed by a vampire, that's why he really hates vampires, all of them. Anyway, in the beginning of the series you'll see him in pain a couple of times, I think alot of you got the picture back then. Yes, when he was attacked he was biten by a vampire, a pureblood. Since he didn't die he will slowly turn into a vampire himself. Since his huge hate for vampires, she fights against the progress with all his might. Zero always has a gun with him, he can use it to kill vampires. He also has a younger twin-brother named Ichiru, but he was not as healthy as Zero (no, he didn't die).

Kaname - A pureblood vampire who's respected by everyone in the Night-Class, no, better said, he's the leader. When he gives an order, it's final. Other vampires fear him and he's loved by alot of girls from the Day-Class. Even through he doesn't really care about them, he does care alot for Yuki, which you'll notice right away. You'll understand later why a vampire with so much power as Kaname cares so much for a normal girl like Yuki.

I think I told you enough, the point is, the characters WIN!

Enjoyment - 100% [10]
Enjoyment? Do you even need to ask? I REALLY enjoy this. It's a burden to wait for the episodes to air, but we have no other choice but wait, have we? If you like a mysterious story, vampires and some scary moments, watch Vampire Knight. I'll probably recommend this to everyone because this is something that everyone would like.

Overall - 90% [9]
What? Miss ''I enjoy-it-so-much'', you didn't gave it a 10!
Yes, people, I know what you're thinking. But you guys must remember, that I'd also like to see this from another point of view. Since I have also read a part of the manga, I know how it could have been. I really think that the people who made the Vampire Knight-anime did an awesome job! If you see the original when reading the manga, you might understand why I gave this a 9. Don't forget to watch it now, I'll hunt you!

Conclusion: Vampire Knight is an awesome anime/manga with very enjoyable characters and a story! It might be one of the ''must-see's''. Judge for yourself.


Okay, minna! This was my review! I hope you didn't dislike it that much, I tried my best in writing it! Love, Erisu...

Mushi-Uta Review.
Writen by: Erisu

Since someone else made a very negative review about this series, I decided to give you another look on the situation.

Story
Mushi-uta's story takes place in the near future. Ten years before the story's opening, strange insect-like creatures known as "Mushi" began appearing. The Mushi are able to consume peoples' dreams and thoughts in return for supernatural powers. At the end of episode one, protagonist Daisuke "Kakkou" Kusuriya encounters a young girl named Shiika Anmoto. The two, in time, become quite close. However, unbeknownst to Kakkou, Shiika is an escapee from a secret prison known as GARDEN where those posessed by the Mushi, ... known as the Mushitsuki are held. GARDEN's military force, the Special Environmental Conservation Executive Office, dispatches its finest killer to track down Shiika. However, they are faced with resistance from the Mushibane resistance organisation, led by the secretive "Ladybird".
(ANN)

First, Mushi-uta didn't attract me at all, since I really hate bugs. But this is so much more than only bugs! The Story resembles around the normal high-school boy, Daisuke Kusuriya. He is, in reality, known as ''Kakkou'', who works for an orginization that kills other people's ''Mushi''. He meets both Shiika and Rina, Rina also known as ''Ladybird'' is the leader from the resistance against the orginazation where Daisuke works for. Shiika has a very rare Mushi, so she's known as ''Fuyuhotaru''. She is the only one who escapted from GARDEN after her Mushi got killed by Kakkou (Daisuke). After watching some episodes, I really got addicted to Mushi-Uta. While watching it, I had a good feeling about this series and that turned out to be right. This has alot of tragedy but it's really worth watching.

Art
I don't have objections about the animation. The characterdesigns are well done and I didn't saw alot of mistakes. I think it's very nice made and wouldn't want it any other way.

Sound
Well, let's start with the opening and ending music.
The name of the opening song is ''Mushi-Uta'' (how original) sung by Akatsuki, which was a very good song. I didn't mind hearing it every episode at all.
Then, the ending song, ''Sayonara'', sung by Hiromi Sato was really a big +! I loved it and even now I can't get enough of it.
When the moment for some background-music came, they gave it to us and I've also heard enough sound-effects to make this come out to a 9.

Character
The good thing about this is, that you won't only get to know the main characters. I also learned some things about the supporting characters, so you'll also get to know them! I really loved everyone in Mushi-Uta except Kakkou's boss.
I loved Daisuke very much, because how he looks on the outside turns out to be very, very different from the inside! He was kinda mysterious but did seem to have a soft spot for Shiika. It also looks like ''Daisuke'' and ''Kakkou'' are two different persons, if you didn't knew that Daisuke was Kakkou, I don't know if I would've known that they are the same person. He's different from the usual male lead's, so I really liked him.
Than, Shiika, my personal favourite character. Even though she might look like the normal ''sweet'', ''shy'' girl, for me, she was different. I liked having a girl like her who doesn't seem to hurt anyone have such a great power as she has. Without her, it wouldn't be the same!
Last, Rina, who's in the same class as Daisuke. Think everyone of us will know her type of person, the big-mouthed girl at school, and yes, outside the school, she's ''Ladybird''. Ladybird is the leader of the resistance who falls in love with Daisuke! As I said, she falls in love with Daisuke without knowing that he's Kakkou, her enemy. I also loved her personality and how she tries to do the best thing. Even though Daisuke does not seem to love her, he really did like her.
So... here's the thing! Mushi-Uta's characters for the win! XD

Enjoyment
10! Yeah, I really enjoyed everything of this. No episode bored me even through you must watch until the end if you want to understand everything. The plot might seem a bit confusing, but the confusing thing might end up being Mushi-Uta's charm, as for me.

Overall
Anyway, overall, this anime wins! It will remain as one of my favourite animes ever and I can't wait for season two (yes, there's going to be a season two!). I hope that you guys will give it a chance and hopefully enjoy it as much as I did!

Super Gals Review
Writen by: Erisu

Story:
Ran Kotobuki is the self-proclaimed world's greatest gal, and she lives to shop, eat, and have as much fun as possible. But she's not all faux nails and Hawaiian jewelry; in the midst of all of her goofing off, she protects Shibuya from all manner of undesirable people, and she often devotes herself to helping both friends and strangers out of trouble, big and small. Of course, she'd rather be eating free food and scoring good deals on clothes, but getting someone out of a big pinch can be just as fun for her. Because of this, she's widely respected by ... the denizens of Shibuya, and although she may look (and even act) a bit shallow, she's got a big heart and a sense of justice that could put her Police Chief father to shame. But she's not interested in that line of work, much to her family's dismay. All she wants is to hang out with her best friends Miyu and Aya, and continue being the world's greatest gal.

The story from Super Gals is if you ask me, very original. How many times do you see a kick-ass shibuya-gal like Ran Kotobuki? This proves that girls aren't ''weak'' and can do more than you think. While watching this, I laughed very hard and loved Ran's personality. It does contains bad language and there are some random episodes but to be honest, I enjoyed every single bit of this.

Animation
About the animation, it isn't ''outstanding'' and not everything looks perfect, but I think that you should just be satisfied with it. After all, this is an 2001-anime. When you judge it as an 2001-anime, this is pretty good. Super Gals also has an manga, and when you compare the anime with that, the anime looks better, doesn't it? Than, the characterdesigns. The main character is obviously: Ran. Her design is nice, and her hair is ''original''. We also see her with long hair later in the series, which looks better if you ask me. Anyway, Ran wouldn't be Ran if she isn't as she looks like. We also have Miyu and Aya, Ran's best friends. Their designs are also very well made, and I must say that they may look better than the main character, Ran. But you'll probably love Ran because of her personality, just as I did. Conclusion: The animation gets an 8 from me, the people who made this tried their best and did a really good job.

Music and Sound
Super Gals has one opening-theme and one ending-theme. It stays the same from the beginning to the end. The opening-theme, Aitsu is sung by Jungle Smile and is a song which you'll get easily addicted to. It was a very good song to choose for this anime. The ending-theme, Dakishimetai, also sung by Jungle Smile was again, a very good song. I must say that I got addicted to the ending-theme to, but... I didn't saw the relation between the ending-theme and the anime. Well, I wasn't really disturbed by this fact, the song is nice so... not something to make a fuss about. Anyway, the soundeffects for this anime are good and I agree for with the backgroundmusic they chose for some scenes. I think most of you won't have something to complain about.

Characters
Finally, the best point from Super Gals. I really loved them! Especially Ran was outstanding. She had everything and she showed me that girls aren't weak and can do something. I think that all of you will notice something in her: She hates school, never does her homework, makes up silly excuses why she didn't do her homework and her whole life is about fun! Shibuya's number one Gal. Every single familymember of Ran is/was an policeofficer. But Ran herself has no attention to become one, much to her parents dismay. She has an little sister (Sayo) and an older brother (Yamato). Yamato is Miyu's boyfriend. Yuya likes her but Ran is too dense to notice his feelings. After a while she gets into a relationship with Tatsuki which she calls ''monkeyboy''. Their relationship is more like an big comedy and you will laugh from the beginning to the end. Ray also seems to like Ran, even though Aya is in love with him. Well, now we go to Miyu, a very sweet girl with a very hard past. She was an gangleader and got into a fight with Ran. The winner will get Shibuya, Ran won. They both got into the hospital and when Miyu wakes up, she sees Yamato by her side (she met him earlier when she got arrested, Yamato is an policeofficer) and fell in love with him. Miyu let her criminal-life behind her and started again, thanks to Yamato. And than, last, Aya. At the beginning, she is a nerd who dates older men for money until she meets Ran who is willing to be friends with her. Ran saves Aya from her life that's only about getting good grades and learns her how to have fun! Aya joins Ran's Gal-group and starts to hang out with Ran and Miyu. Later she falls in love with Ray. Ray is known as ''number one'' and is loved by alot of girls. He meets Ran when she tries to steal his purse which she wanted, haha. He's a bit sarcastic but what he says is true. Who he really likes is revealed somewhere at the end of the series. Than, his friend, Yuya, called ''second place'' by Ran. He ended up second after Ray and also has alot of female-fans. His actions of trying to get Ran's attention are very funny! Wow, this is getting very long, I'll talk about one more character, Mami. She's Ikebukuro's number one Gal and sees Ran as her enemy. She picks up fights with Ran alot.. In reality, she lives in a huge maison and is the only daughter of the Honda-family. So, END! This lasted like forever, but I loved every single character of Super Gals.

Enjoyment
Isn't it obvious already? I enjoyed this very, very much! I wasn't bored even one episode. What you guys may not like is watching the English-dub. I did watch the English-dub and must say it was really good! Trust me, I hate English-dubs, I really do, but this was really good. If you can find the Japanese version with subs than that's fine too.. What I must warn you about is the bad language, I guess. If you're very formal and don't like words like ''dumbass'' than I don't think you should watch this. I wasn't disturbed by this at all, without it Super Gals wouldn't be just as good! Anyway, that's my opinion. You'll also see voilence in this, like people getting kicked KO, but when Ran kicks them, it rocks! ;3 This is one of my favourite animes ever, so... a 10!

Overall
Think I mentioned everything that was important by ''Enjoyment'' but the overall note stays a 10! Ran remains one of my favourite characters ever and she'll always have a special place in my anime-heart! XD I hope that you'll start watching this and enjoy it as much as I do.

Thank you for reading my review!

I will not start with my usual lines here, we're just gonna start with the review NOW! :-)

Story
The story is about Kamizaka Haruhi, when she was young she was rescued by a boy who used magic. After being saved by him, she wanted to be a ''mage'' herself. She goes to a magical school with two sections, normal and magic classes. Haruhi comes at the top of her class and is seen as one of the best mages. Even though, she still wants to meet the boy who saved her when she was little. Later, she meets a boy named Yuma who hates magic and ... is in the normal class.

The story looks kinda good, right? But we get quite some random episodes who don't really match the story. I thought that they we're kinda boring and didn't made sense. Be prepared for that if you want to watch Happiness!

Still, I give the story a 8. It's not the most original story ever, but I always fall in love with ''mages''.

Art
Happiness! isn't an old anime, so the art is okay. I can't give it a 9 because some poses really looked stupid, I think that they took a break when they drew that.

I must say also that the drawingstyle they used for this isn't really my ''taste''. Why not? It just isn't, it's my honest opinion, so shut up, muwhaha.

But again, Erisu gives it a 8. It's just not bad, maybe it isn't my taste but that doesn't mean I should exaggerate, I'm sure other people WILL like this style and will not get my ''not my taste'' thing.

Sound
I'm not very enthusiastic about this. The sound effects are just lame at some points. You don't hear some sounds who should be there! It's just like: talking... talking... talking... sound... talking. They should have made BETTER sound effects, I was really disturbed about that fact, if they just had better sound effects the anime would look more ''real''.

My point: Because of some lame sound effects the anime didn't looked so ''real'' anymore and some parts turned out to be BORING. Even some fights were boring because of this. I give it a 5, they had some sound effects, just not enough.

Character
The characters were really nice. I liked Haruhi, the female main character, and Anri because her magic never works! ;3

We'll come back at the ''Art'' part here, they should have drawn them a little better sometimes..

Another thing is that I didn't liked Yuma much, and he's the male main character. He just didn't stopped saying how bad magic was, after some time it got annoying. We know, you don't have to repeat a 1.000.000 times!

Again, even with the kinda annoying male main character, Happiness! has all kinds of characters. The ''cute, cute, I wanna be friends'' type, maybe seen as the lolli here, Sumomo. The ''whatever, I don't need friends'' type, named Ibuki who turnes out to be the enemy, even though everyone tried so hard to be friends with her.. >.< Another character that most of you will like is Jun, hard to believe, but it's a guy who dresses like a girl, hahaha. It's kinda funny that he really seems to think that he's a girl!

You'll probably like most of the characters, maybe you would hate one or two, but that's fine. I give it a 7 because I liked most of them and didn't had a (very) big grudge against Yuma.

Enjoyment
People who like ''Mahou Shoujo'' gernes will like this anime. I think that some of us will be disturbed by the sometimes, bad sound effects. I can't change that for you, if that will be the reason why some of you will stop watching, I can understand. But, I decided not to pay too much attention to the sound effects and started concentrate on the story, if you can do the same I again, think that you would kinda enjoy this.

People who don't like ''Mahou Shoujo'' and the ''School Life'' and stuff will not like this anime, forget about watching it, you just won't like it!

Like I said before, I think I enjoyed this at some parts and give it a 7.

Overall
I won't recommend this as a ''must see'', if you have nothing to watch, you can watch this. I came out with a 7 or something and think that is the right note to give.

Think about Erisu's warnings before watching this and blaming it on me, haha.

Note from Erisu
Erisu is happy that you spend your time reading her review. Thank you very much! ;3

Another review from: Erisu! Don't be mad because I didn't stopped writing my f*cked up reviews, I only do it for the fun, if you like them, thank you very much, if you hate them then you shouldn't read them at all, whaha! =D

Story
If there is an anime with a good story, then it's Ef - A Tale Of Memories. I saw alot of 'drama' animes but I think Ef - A Tale Of Memories is the best so far. At the beginning, you won't understand the story, neither did I. But don't stop after the first episode, it's really gonna get much better and ... you'll understand the situation! This is a story where you really could cry about.. If you like drama and romance you'll just gonna love this, wait and see.

Art
The art of Ef - A Tale Of Memories is a very big pluspoint! This anime has a very unique art that's well made. In some scenes something changes, I don't really know how to explain this because I'm dutch, just watch it for yourself. But I never seen something like this before, like I said, it's just unique. Maybe I'll see this as the anime with the best art from 2007, maybe also the best story.

Sound
It's hard to say something about this. The songs are awesome, the sound is how it needs to be, and that's everything I can say. But I'm sure that the sound isn't the most important thing for watching a anime.

Characters
The characters of this anime are also unique. Each of them has their own story, something that I love. Miyako, Chihiro, Renji, Hiro and the rest are just awesome. BUT the character that I really hate is Kei, who does she think she is?! I'd seen alot of people who also hate her and I can understand, you also will if you watch it. I NEVER saw a character who is so selfish as Kei, I really can't stand the fact why she is in such a good anime. But she doesn't messes it up for me because I'm sure that she's gonna lose and I can't wait to see that! I love every character but just not Kei, you're my friend if you think the same, haha! =D

Enjoyment
If you want comedy, then you're at the wrong place. I don't think that this is supossed to be funny, even though every anime has their funny moments. But this is really a drama/romance, mostly drama I think, so if you're not a drama-type at all, don't watch this. I'd warn you! Back at the good part: If you LOVE drama then this is a MUST see anime! I really enjoy this with all my animeheart! =D Let's get our handkerchiefs ready for the rest of this anime!

Overall
I couldn't help my myself.. I give it a 10! Some people will call me crazy because maybe they're not into drama, well get out of here! This is my review, muwhaha. All the people who want to watch this now: I wish you a great time watching this awesome anime! <3

Review writen by: Erisu

Yosha! My newest addiction: Writing reviews! =D Let's start with this one, people!

Story
Well, the ones with brains already saw that this is a romantic gerne. If you don't like romance at all then I think that this anime is nothing for you. I'm really the romance type so of course I like the story from Kimi-Kiss ~Pure Rouge~. So for the ones that also are into romance, you should really watch this. I give the story a 9! <3

Art
Mmm.. what can I say about the art. Well, you can see that this anime is kinda new but it isn't the best art that I've seen ... so far for a 2007 anime. Let's be honest, there are better ones. But the colors and stuff are good and it's about the story, isn't it? Don't get me wrong now, I don't say that the art is bad, I say that it isn't the best that I've seen.

Sound
With animes from 2006/2007 you mostly just don't have something to complain. I give it a 9 as always.

Character
Yes, we coming to the good part! I JUST LOVE THE CHARACTERS! My favorite is Mao, but I like everyone from Kimi-Kiss ~Pure Rouge~. We have her (Mao) to start with, she moved to France and suddenly came back. She's like a big sister for the rest who seem to have a crush on Kai. She's telling everyone what to do, lol! Yuumi, the innocent who loves books and has a crush on Kouichi (he also has a crush on her!). Eriko, the genius who does very weird expiriments. Watch it yourself if you wanna find out. Let's see, Asuka the soccer-girl. Nana, the little childish sister from Kazuki and her friend Narumi. And last Kazuki and Kouichi, the male leads. I'm sure you gonna love all of them because they really have their own personality.

Enjoyment
You could really enjoy this! At least, I do! There are some very very funny moments and it's just the romance where I was looking for. Like I said already, if you don't like romance I won't think that you would really enjoy this so I won't try to watch it in the first place. But romance-lovers you're really gonna enjoy this!

Overall
Well, I have only one 7 so I'm just gonna give this anime a 9! =D All the romance-lovers, I wish you a great time watching this series!

Thanks for reading my review!

I decided to change my review because I didn't liked it anymore, and I have other things to say now.

Story
I still say that I can't give the story higher then a 6. I think I'm going to sound very negative now, but I can't help it, sorry. The story is just.. boring! The whole series is about the Koko x Yoshiyuki relationship which isn't going anywhere! We also see some episodes about Minatsu, again, I'm not really interested, but other people can like it. After some episodes I was really forcing myself to watch it.. Like I said, one word: B-O-R-I-N-G.

Art
I can say something good ... about this, at least.. There's nothing wrong with the art, we could also see that in the other Da Capo series. Bright colors, nice characterdesign, you can see that this anime is kinda new, that's a good thing, isn't it?

Sound/Seiyuu's
Nothing wrong with the sound, you can hear it very bright, so.. we can't say bad things about that either. But now we come to the seiyuu's. Some of them.. ANNOY ME!
Examples:
Yoshiyuki: If my boyfriend had a voice like that, I would say: Goodbye! That was really harsh, isn't it? Okay, maybe I won't, if I would really love the guy.
Minatsu: The most annoying voice ever, does she always have a cold or something?! Maybe her seiyuu was sick or something?!

The rest of them, they're fine. Some of them are really good, others are normal, think you understand me, right?

Character
I like most of Da Capo II's characters. Good ones: Otome, Yume, Nanaka, Anzu, Sakura and the rest who aren't with the bad ones. Bad ones: Yoshiyuki, Koko, Minatsu. Why I don't like Yoshiyuki, Koko and Minatsu? They are the worst main characters they could choose, and the story is mostly about them. Yoshiyuki is way too dense. Koko is annoying and thinks that Yoshiyuki always will see her as the first place, selfish brat. Minatsu acts like she don't need help, so people will feel sorry for her. And WTF is the thing with the bananas? I mean, she (Minatsu) says that she hates them, but she needs to eat them to survive. I mean.. BANANAS! How do they think of something so stupid! Did they ask the greengrocer for help when they thought of this! Horrible.. That this still can get a 7 is because of the 'good ones', and because I'm way to nice! :-)

Enjoyment
Do you like boring stories with two people who are in a relationship which never will work out? Do you like robots and bananas? Then Da Capo II is the anime for you! Okay, forget what I said.. I can't believe that this crap is from the same makers as the other Da Capo series. Where is the drama?! Even the end s*ckt very badly! We don't know anything yet... I'm not sure if I want to watch the second season of this, it needs to be VERY good otherwise I will drop it right away. But maybe some people enjoyed this, I don't know, I think that there was a episode where Nanaka sings, that one wasn't very bad.

Overall
I'm sure some of you are wondering why I gave such good notes, because I was really negative if you ask me. 1. I'm way too nice.. 2. Other people may like it, I wanted to watch at their point of view a little..
My real OPINION: I wasted my damn time on this sh*t! BUT, I'll give the second season ONE chance, maybe they will make up for the crappy story/ending and all the other things. If they won't, I wasted my time even more.

Thanks for spending your time to read this review! Some of you didn't expected Erisu to go evil, neh? :-)

Okay, guys! I wanted to re-do this review too, since I finished this series some time ago.

Story
Night Wizard. A term given to those whose mission is to protect the world from impending darkness. Renji Hiiragi is one such Night Wizard, who is constantly called on missions, even though all he wants is to be able to go to school and graduate.

However, his latest order was to protect Elis Shiho, who is a new transfer student at his academy. Being dragged into the Astronomy Club by Renji's childhood friend, Kureha Akabane on her first day at school, Elis soon realises that she too, has the ... power to become a night wizard, after possessing one of seven secret Jewels, the Jewel of Kindness.

I really liked Night Wizard's story, it's not the most original story that you'll see, I mean, we've probably seen alot of magic-animes.. But.. this had some really funny moments, action moments and serieus moments. The only thing that I'd missed was romance. If you want more romance than the usual, this isn't an anime that you should watch. Even though the lack of romance, I really enjoyed this series. Do not watch if you don't like magical gernes!

Art
The animation is pretty good. I wouldn't expect less from an 2007-anime. Ofcourse, we have some miss-steps in Night Wizard too, but every anime has some of these. Overall is must say that I have nothing to complain about the animation. We see some pretty good effects with is just okay.

Sound
What can I say about this? The Opening-song, ''Kurenai'' is very nice to listen to. I'm sure it won't bother you to listen to it through the 13 episodes. The Ending-song, which is ''Erinyes'' was the song where I got addicted too! It's really good for an Ending-song, I really miss to listen to it now. For the sound-effects, we have enough of them, also the seiyuu's did a goob job with their character.

Character
The main characters of Night Wizard are probably Renji (Hiiragi) and Elis. Which I enjoyed very much is that Renji always was the victim! Everyone was always picking on him, awhh. Elis is probably the main female character, the one who turns out to have ''magical'' powers, like you see more in this kind of animes. Renji ends up as Elis's ''protector'' and Elis makes more friends. The other kinda like ''supporting'' characters are Kureha, Akari, Anzelotte and Bell. Kureha is Elis's first friend and drags Elis into the Astronomy Club, she's also a wizard who's been friends with Renji since childhood. Akari is the quite type of girl and ends up as being Elis's friend too, probably because she was touched by her kindness. Yes, Akari is a wizard too. Than, Anzelotte, Renji's ''boss''. It's very funny to see her commanding him, she always ignores his complaints. Bell is like the main villain of the story, she knew Anzelotte for a long time. She's not as bad as she looks, though. You should expect a suprise in this series. I think I've told you something about all the important characters, I really liked them. Let's continue with the next subject.

Enjoyment
I think that you'll enjoy this series if you like magic and comedy. Me, myself, really DID enjoy this. I don't regret watching it and waiting for the episodes to air. Think I'll dare to say that this is something that you should give a try. At least, if you like magic.

Overall
Overall I think that I give this a 8. The story turns out the be different than what you thought (somewhere at the end). My favourite through the series was Elis, she was really cute. I also loved Renji, he was so funny! Well, as you can see, if you ask me, this a good anime which has what an anime needs.
