The whole idea of dating girls and getting a kiss from them in order to free them from a burden brings Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai to mind. However, the whole idea of girls in Mecha armor should be an obvious hint that it's nowhere near close to what we though it would be. I'd have to say that what made this anime enjoyable was the balance between comedy and plot. It wasn't too serious and at the same time, it wasn't too comedic. The amount of fanservice here was average for a new anime (In this century at least). What captivated me the most ... was the climax where things started to intertwine. However, the big disappointment was that it came when the series was close to halfway done. The biggest flaw of the anime had to have been the sheer amount of things left unanswered. For example, what happened to this character, or that one, or this one? They could've gone more in-depth on the characters rather than stick to the main crew. In fact, if they did then the series wouldn't just be a half series. There'd be more story rather than just dates after dates after dates alternating between battle and fanservice. This just means that there are a LOT of open questions that need to be answered. Once again, there could've been a lot more done with this anime and that is it's fatal flaw. I enjoyed the characters. Each one of them was loving. One more things that bothers me is that they never dodge and they recover at the speed of light like nothing ever happened. Anyway, that's all I can say about Date A Live. I reaalize that I'm pointing out a lot of flaws but it's a good anime. It just lacks story and information. If you're looking for an anime that is similar to Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai but with a little more sparkle, then you've found a good anime. Kotori wins Imouto of the year. Overall score: 8/10

The current score for this anime is harsh (6.99). This was one series that deserved to be stretched to double the amount of episodes it has. Sure, the series was rushed but it has more character development than any other long anime series I've seen. Although short, they showed a lot of character development in the main characters (Particularly Luke Ainsworth). I admit that I am a fanboy when it comes to Medieval setting and Holy references. But many modern day anime lack what this anime has. Jealousy is a very common factor in modern day anime and I saw no hint of jealousy here. ... Seiken no Blacksmith is one of those series where I've had a ton of enjoyment and will always by one of the best Medieval sword themed anime I've seen.

It's nice to have a little special in the original Naruto anime now and then. This one had a nice ring to it. I find the genie concept really humurous. This special is almost equivalent to the holy grail war from the Fate/Stay Night series only with Naruto characters. We see a little bit of character development behind the characters here (i.e. What they wish for). The subtitles were poorly edited but even if it had subtle subtitles, the results of this review would be the same. The results of this review: The special was phenomonal!

Definitely the best Vampire theme anime that I've ever watched. Other Vampire themed anime can't compete with this. Tsukihime had great soundtracks and great moments! To be honest, I became a little teary eyed at around the ending (Won't tell why or else I've spoiled it for the first time watchers.) Most people say that the plot is slow but I disagree, it gets right to the point. You can compare this with Vampire Knight and see a couple of similarities between the two but Vampire Knight gets boring. Maybe the reason why I fail to see why Vampire Knight is really good is because ... it's a shojo. Aside from that, I like how the series gets to the point instead of dragging it further and further. You can even say that Shingetsutan Tsukihime is the "Shonen" version of Vampire Knight but the fact that it's ten-twenty times better.

Thank you for reading this "useless" review and have a very merry Christmas! One more thing, I find it a coincidence how I finish the anime and write this review on Dec. 25 which also happens to be Arcueid's birthday.

It was a nice concept that they used with the West rather than go with your generic Japanese setting. A goal is enough to power someone's life. The very same can be said about this story. Gun Blaze West focuses on only one true path. It may have been a short series with a disappointing discontinued ending but Gun Blaze West forever takes us to the place we've always dreamt of going to. And it gives us a strong realization to embrace our goals. One that is as strong as that of the main character's, Viu Bannes.

It's quite certain that Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai fans with the K-ON fan spirit within them would jump for joy if they saw this OVA. But K-ON doesn't have what this Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai OVA has: Comedy and Romance.

The concept was quite excellent. And at the end credits, I actually wished that they would continue this OVA as a mini series in the anime. There were so many things that they could've done with the characters.

Thanks for taking the time for reading this first-time reviewer's review and have a good day!
