Wow. If I had to describe this anime in one word, the word is EPIC. The story is filled with psychological plots on how it all started. Then as the show goes on, more and more is revealed on what really occurred on that fateful day, the reason everything happened.
It takes place on a futuristic era, set on 2039. Humanity had encountered a strange virus that crystallizes a person. In 2029, when the virus spread throughout Japan, a multinational corporation called GHQ helped Japan and was paid back by their freedom. The story is about a 17-year old guy, Shu Ouma, who gained the
...
"Power of the Kings." Shu was a normal High school student until he met Inori Yuzuriha, a girl from a band named EGOIST, and was a member of a rebel group. He falls for her and reluctantly joins the rebellious group who call themselves "Undertakers" or "Funeral Parlor."
The "Power of Kings" gives Shu an incredible ability. To draw out people's hearts as a weapon. They are called voids. Human heart that takes shape into the person's fear or personality. And Shu has the ability to draw it out and use it.
Gai, the leader of Funeral Parlor, leads them in the first half as they try to defeat GHQ and put an end to their cruelty, but fails because of Shu's cowardness. Gai dies, taking Mana's body with him as they get crystallized and disappear.
As the story progresses, Shu becomes their leader, although becomes antagonist-like due to Hare's death. It sparks his tyranny side and takes control of the people of his school. But, he did it all because he wants to be their savior, and will save them from GHQ's intention to wipe out the people in order to start a new breed of humans through the one who started it all, Shu's deceased sister, Mana Ouma. She is sometimes called Eve, the one who took Satan's apple. I'll leave it to you to watch how it occurred. Here's a tip, it's called "Lost Christmas."
Shu eventually succeeds, but his celebration was cut off as his people took a turn and turns on him. Coup d'etat. What's worse is Gai is resurrected and turns evil. He appears in the Coup and cut's off Shu's right arm, where the Power of Kings is resting.
After a long filler of episodes, Inori gets captured and becomes a tribute for the return of Mana. Shu gains his mighty powers back through his step-mom, changes his cowardly personality and challenges Gai. Ouf course, Mana is revived but was again killed. In the end, Shu saves the world from the Fourth Apocalypse, and had to pay the price. I won't tell you what it is, since it's a super duper mega giga terra Spoiler. Let's just say the red string of fate made an appearance.
The music was sexy and it really filled in the story. Perfect fit. The songs were sung by Supercell member Chelly. Animation was very intense and is very good. Hi-Def, clear and no ruins. Plot was a little slow at start but deepens when the second half of the show starts. Character Development was mediocre at best, because there were some characters who had potential, but was left off.
Overall, a top-tier anime and I recommend it. :D

Aki lives a wonderful life. She's got the beauty, intelligence, sports skills and popularity. Although, that changes when she's at home. She's very lazy and untidy leading her little brother, Sora, to clean it. Plus, Sora's twin sister Nami, is madly inlove with her best friend Kana, but doesn't admit it.
Bullied by Nami and often teased by Aki, Sora is left to do chores their mom has to do. But, where's their mom? She's busy with work like most moms. I'll add more, Sora actually harbors lustful feelings for his big sister Aki, who feels the same. It's an adventure and they have to
...
work hard in order to keep these feelings from being discovered by their parents.
OKAY STOP. Let's take a break here and read my opinion. I saw this manga when I was looking for something ecchi-ish to read, but I didn't think it was this strong. Sex is shown throughout the whole story, but no showing of genitals to be safe.
The story is about two siblings having deep love for each other to the point that they actually committed incest. But doing it once didn't satisfy them, as they did it many more times and stopped when they were caught by somebody they know. I'll be hiding that character for now and will reveal it later.
The story progresses as Sora makes more friends, girls to be exact, and these girls have the same feelings Aki has for him. At volume two, the mother they see is actually their aunt, who acted like their mother when they were kids. The twins do not know what's going on, but Aki does, as she was the one who told their aunt not to reveal it. If she were to, the kids would be devastated due to the fact that their real mother died in a car crash and Aki and their aunt were lying. At the end of volume two, Nami and Sora engaged in sex. Well, not really engage but more of "Nami raped Sora." because she was jealous that Sora and Kana were actually progressing more that they were.
Volume three and four are just fillers in my opinion, just sex here for Sora and sex there. But, there was a point that when Sora took Kana's virginity, they were secretly filmed by the jealous Nami. At volume five, Sora and Kana were chosen to become the models of a photo-shoot. Then Sora befriends more minor characters and had sex with them. When volume five reaches the end, Kana had discovered Sora and Nami having sex and joins them, competing with Nami. The prize? Sora. Why does the little fucker have all the fucking girls?! I feel lonely. (┳Д┳)
One of those threesomes actually fixed Nami and Kana's relationship. They forgive and reveal their feelings towards another. At the final volume, there's a man who comes in to their house and Aki calls him father. But, Nami and Sora did not acknowledge him as he wasn't there during their childhood days. In one of those chapters, Aki becomes aroused and she and Sora again have sex again in the living room. Believing that the door was locked and nobody else was in the house, they continued. They actually finished and Aki says she's thirsty, leading Sora to get her a glass of water, but was stopped as they see their father standing by the door and was watching them the whole time.
This leads to Aki being taken away by their father and goes off somewhere far. Sora becomes lonely and acts strangely for some time, but gets the words of encouragement and goes off, searching and wanting to meet his beloved sister. He finally reaches his destination despite being in the road for days. As he meets Aki, they go to the hospital and Sora sees that his "father" was in it. Their father had been suffering. He still becomes stiff and refuses to call him father, leading to Aki slapping him really hard.
Eventually, their father dies and the whole family attends the funeral. It's revealed that the reason their father had separated them was because he committed incest too, and they were the product. It comes down to the point that Sora had to make his decision. Aki stays, or not. As he thinks hard, he does not notice the train leaving, with Aki. His final words on that chapter was "Don't go."
In the end, Sora is shown putting flowers on their mother's grave. That means he already knows the truth. He starts praying but a shadow catches his attention. He stands up and talks about their mom and dad finally being together again and will never be separated. It turns out that it was Aki, who arrived. In the end, nothing could stop their love for each other and they continued seeing each other.
The characters filled their roles nicely although there were characters who only appeared in filler chapters. A minus one for that.
Love, as portrayed in this manga, moves me. I don't care if you call me a pervert for the ecchi things in this manga. What I'm after is the story. Classic and simple. Forbidden Love. It's the main point of the manga. How will the lovers survive? How will their friends react? How long will they be able to keep this up? How will the society accept them? These are the questions that lingered in my mind while reading it.

First impression, mechs battling each other. Reality, HAREM. Don't expect long mecha battle scenes guys. The anime is clearly a Mecha Harem, with Harem overpowering. The protagonist will be surrounded by four beautiful girls as they try to make him fall in love with them.
The anime aired from January up to March of 2011 and finished with 12 episodes plus one OVA.
Set in the future, war between men and women wouldn't last more than three days. Women had been superior to the men, as they are able to pilot the powered exoskeleton called IS or Infinite Stratos, made by Dr. Tabane Shinonono.
Then, military offices were
...
hacked and missiles launched as soon as Dr. Tabane showed the entire world her life-changing invention. Unexpectedly, an IS appears, piloted by an unknown woman who had stopped all the missiles and disappeared like it never happened.
The story starts ten years later, as one guy, named Ichika Orimura, during an entrance exam, accidentally moves an IS and becomes the world's first male ever to move an IS. Media came in and everything else. Then, he was transferred to the IS school, the world's first and only IS school. Unsurprisingly, it's full of girls. Not one guy can be seen but Ichika.
The story progresses like it's light novel counterpart. He engages in battles concerning rivalry and to unravel the secrets of the powered exoskeleton. To add more, the girls he becomes friends with develop actual feelings for in and they always try to get his attention.
Yup, all of that and it's still a harem. Yes, it has a plot, but I didn't feel it. just School life Harem with the mecha twist. It seriously needs another, more serious season. I really felt bad that the mecha genre wasn't taken seriously. It can be longer and more serious. If the anime was longer, characters can be developed more and won't be discarded quickly like in the show.

Good evening! Hello again, this time I'm reviewing yet another harem! Well, it's kinda toned down as the guy is 17 years old and the girls are 14. The title is Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai! or MY LITTLE SISTER CAN'T BE THIS CUTE! Lengthy title if you ask me, so I just call it OreImo or My Sister.
I found this anime while browsing at a blog. It's a relatively good anime, something everyone can relate to. Even if you don't have a sister or the opposite. An incest anime without the sex and the love is replaced by a
...
brother-sister love.
It's centered around the distant relationship of the "Super Average" 17-year-old Kyosuke Kousaka and his 14-year-old beautiful, Otaku, perverted and "tsundere" sister, Kirino Kousaka, and how they try to know each other despite not communicating for many years even though they're at the same place. The only communication they go through is "Tadaima!" or "I'm home!" in English.
SPOILER ALERT!
The story starts with the male protagonist waking up. Well, got woke up by his sister. He grabs her and it turns out that it was a dream.
Later on, he and she would bump, and Kyosuke finds a magical girl anime and does not know who owns it. Much to his surprise, the content was not the show but an eroge or erotic game. Dinner had passed by and Kyosuke learns that it's Kirino's stuff. Then, Kirino brings him to her room and finally leaks out the huge stash of little sister eroge she had been keeping from them until now. She is an avid fan of those themes and is an Otaku.
The story progresses as Kyosuke and Kirino build up their relationship with some struggles and new friends along the way. Examples are Kirino becoming a novelist and continues her modeling. While Kyosuke, becomes Kirino's slave-like brother and develops brotherly feelings for her.
Even though it's a harem anime, there's not much ECCHI scenes to expect. If they were to do that, the show would be canceled and it will be branded as a lolicon/siscon hentai. The anime progresses much like an eroge, as Kyosuke always defends and helps his sister, even if he has to get punished, become a laughing stock, addressed as Sexual Harassment Senpai/Onii-Chan, anything! All of it just to fulfill her needs.
Every episode has a different approach and different moments to look forward too. Some scenes make you cry, make you laugh and lastly, get you turned on. Hehehe... DON'T JUDGE ME! Why would you want your little sister playing an adult game BESIDE YOU?! That's insane, but cool. >:D
The art was great, as it captured my heart instantly and made me explode with their cuteness. CUTENESS OVERLOADDDDDDDD!!!!!!! Just looking at the characters, you can already say that this one has this personality and this one with this personality. That's supposed to be a negative thing, but in this type of anime, it can be applied.
The music was limited to OST's and the Irony by ClariS. But it's enough for a 15 episode anime. I really enjoyed the anime a lot, and yes. I like Ecchi, Harem and sisters. BUT I'M NOT PERVERTED. It can be continued, as it lacks depth.
Overall, I really like it. I like the pairing, the story, the scenes... Everything.

I was very impressed with the art. It had well-drawn characters and the best CGI rendering yet. The anime was just published recently, it started in January and ended in March. All in all, it has twelve episodes and has an OVA currently in production. And so, yes. I watched it at night. I started at six sharp in the evening and finished it all at twelve.
The anime will make you use your brains as it will test how much you can do as a detective. The plot is very complex, as it was always present during the anime. As I told you, I broke
...
away from the harem and funny scenes to much more dark ones like this. Oh, by the way, it's also gore.
SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENED!
This anime shows a strange phenomenon known as the "Curse of Class 3", where every school year, students in Class 3 die month by month. It's generally a sci-fi anime, but also shows horror. The anime took place in 1998, 26 years after the first tragedy that seemed to start the curse. It all started as Misaki Yomiyama, honors student of the Batch 1972 Class 3, died in a house fire, including his family members.
His classmates was so shocked that they continued to believe that Misaki was alive, as they still left his desk at their class room. Shortly after they took a class picture, they saw the dead Misaki in the class picture with his deathly pale skin and was smiling with them.
Going on to the current timeline in this anime, Koichi Sakakibara had just transferred from Tokyo to Yomiyama. He transferred to the school of Yomiyama North. Unknown to him, his class is the very class that was cursed. Class 3. He befriends a pale girl, whose name is Mei Misaki.
As deaths piled up, they try to unravel the mystery and finally put an end to the meaningless curse that took their friends' life. The only solution was to send the dead back to the dead. In the end, they had stopped the curse, but it will continue for the next school year.
