I am very surprised from start to finish since picking this anime up months ago. I can't believe it took me so long to decide to watch it since I'm usually lazy on anime that have 100+ episodes but this was one of heck of a ride. I will be honest the art may put a lot of ppl off on watching it but art should be the least of worries when watching anime in my case. In my opinion the art suited the series super well and I can't imagine how I would feel if the art was done in a more ... modern type of way. There were some times when I thought the art was off like during the Dark Tournament Saga when Hiei literally looked like a pre- schooler during one of his fights but really that was nothing for me. Moving onto the plot/story and characters I really loved most of the characters, even Keiko and Botan which a lot of people consider annoying useless characters. Each of the 4 main characters character was really likable due to their personalities and powers. The fights were really well done as some of them actually made me want to literally fight as well in real life. I was would say the only thing I didn't like as much were some of the stuff that happens after the Dark Tournament Saga but overall if your a person like me that's watching in the 21st century (2017), you may possibly like this as its on the same level in my opinion as the big 4 (Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, and Fairy Tail) plus DB which was airing at the same time as well. It was also pretty cool to see some stuff from this definitely having an influence on Bleach and Naruto. Hope this review gets you to watch this anime, Senpai!

Lemme say I was really excited when I heard the sequel to Konosuba was going to come out in Winter 2017. Season 1 only had 10 episodes and when it ended with a cliffhanger, it left me yearning for more. I was really hoping Konosuba would bring equal enjoyment or even better, surpass its first season. I sadly was wrong, this too ended in 10 episodes but it didn't leave me hyped for another season, no. It literally made me really disappointed and not even think about a season 3 coming. The comedy barely made me laugh compared to first season. I personally thought most ... of the comedy in this sequel was forced (my opinion). I noticed the slight art change but It didn't bothered me because It wasn't too major of a difference and Konosuba was still the same. I guess a couple things that were good about this sequel was more new characters I guess, and we got to know a bit more about everyone's favorite masochist crusader "Darkness".

This series was really a chore to watch each week during my school lunch break. If your

looking to watch this series to cheat in real life at your school, then I highly recommend

not to. It may just get you in trouble imitating it, and make your low IQ that's making

you cheat in the first place drop ... even further, and leave you with less of a brain to

even actually study with, for a chance. Nothing in this anime, an actual student can

pull off and cheat with, but I find it funny with most of the episodes that it starts off

with a little warning about cheating is wrong and do not imitate (something along

those lines). I understand making an actual pure, realistic cheating anime would have

a negative influence on society, as kids still in school may imitate it and etc. But really

the action and comedy to this cover up this, really sucked in my opinion and was just

silly. The story was so sloppy as some episodes left me with no idea what was going on.

If want to watch this anime expecting to see kawaii Magical Girls helping people in need, then you may want to turn and look for another anime, because this is more of a Magical Girl "hunger games" than it is a "Magical Girls helping other people" anime. Magical Girls are killing each other, left ... and right leaving tomato sauce everywhere.

DO NOT WATCH THIS IF :

-AGAIN, if you do not want to witness kawaii Magical Girls killing each other than helping innocent people

-You hate an unless mc (due to being a Pure Magical Girl but nonetheless pretty much useless unless she's helping normal people as a Magical Girl)

-Quickly grow attached to characters on your anime journey of this series, who may end up dying leaving you with tears rolling down your eyes.

WATCH THIS IF YOU :

-Like survival anime, in this case Magical Girl hunger games

-Like gore (any form of tomato sauce spilling)

-Like action anime with superpowers

-Like pure evil Magical Girls

This is pretty much all I'm willing to tell you , I left most of the detailed stuff out to avoid further spoilers and let you, "The Anime Watcher", experience this yourself if you choose to watch this anime. Overall in my opinion, It was an okay anime that entertained me on Sundays during the Fall 2016 anime season. Sayonara Senpai, and thanks for taking the time to read this review, hope it makes you motivated to try this anime, or avoid it due to the content.

This OVA is very kawaii and brings a smile to your face after the original series, "Infinite Stratos".

This episode goes off with a bang for the Charl fans, as Charl starts off at Ichika's house. Afterwards Cecilia, and then the rest of the girls show up. Some slice of life with a small amount of comedy stirs up in the house with all the girls involved. The second half of this OVA ends up with some happy moments involving Ichika and one particular girl out of the five (watch to find out) at a festival. I highly recommend watching this straight after season 1 and ... not skip to season 2.

Watching this will make you feel refreshed once more since the season 1 and 2 series. This particular ova focuses on Iroha and Hachiman somewhat relationship I guess, and for many who read the light novel , it is very rewarding. Overall, this ova will give you a feeling of shipping Iroha and Hachiman (that is if you are a shipper). But I also kinda hoped this would be longer :3 because I usually 1-episode OVAs focused on a single character.

Haha, I liked the girl point system on guys being implanted on this ova episode. Sayonara Otakus, and you must watch this ... if you truly love Oregairu!

Lemme just say that this series : Hunter X Hunter (2011) was a heck of a roller coaster ride!

At first I thought this was gonna be a childish show so for months this was sitting in my "plan to watch" pile, until one day I decided to give it a go. It started off slow but pretty soon started to give me a tingle of exciting ... after a couple of episodes. Pretty soon, I was hooked onto this series and gave it my full attention almost every day. This series produced some of the most likable characters I've have ever seen on screen, like you could easily grow attached to some characters right away on their "first appearance" episode in the series. Even a lot of the background characters are remembered by me. If you think this series is childish because the main protagonist is a 12-year old then you are sadly mistaken. Throughout this series, Gon has shown great bravely and talent, quickly going up in the ranks and even standing tall and straight against strong and fearful opponents in fights (both ally, and enemy). But also this series may not be as bright as you think because things can get pretty dark in this anime. The fights were pretty good in this series, I could sometimes find myself so excited for the next episode just to see a fight finish. I try to keep this review as low on spoilers as possible so it is your decision to watch this series and get the bigger details such as the characters, fights, and etc. I hope you guys will choose to watch this series and enjoy it just as much or more than I did. Sayonara!


Watch this series if you are :
1.) Too lazy to watch those 300+ anime (I felt the amount of episodes for this series was perfect
2.) A person who like main character(s) who are not at the top of the pyramid (the strongest).
3.) A person who absolutely hates filler and wants pure plot (by the way, there are some recap episodes, which can be skipped if you do not want to watch em).

But...
Be warned there can be some episodes with lots of narration that makes the series feel slow, and the opening song is the same every epsiode but the EDs will make up for it.

Note (before review) : I wasn't expecting much from this series as I began watching it at the time of it's airing (Spring 2016) because it started off with some cliche aspects. But lemme say this, I'm glad I took a chance and continued to watch it each week while it was airing as the story started developing, my lack of enjoyment for it increased to a level of ... appreciation for this series.


Kuromukuro may not be most original idea as it involves a character from a different time period being awakened to a more modern time period to his own. In this case a Samurai named "Kennosuke Tokisada Ouma", from the Sengoku Period waking up in the United Nations Kurobe Research Institute, summer of 2016 to save a Kawaii girl named Yukina Shirahane, who happens to look like his princess who he failed to save during his time period from the Demons, his enemy from his time period. The Demons turn out to be back this time around, and it gives him the reason to live in this time period to fight for revenge for his Princess, even if it costs him his life. During his time in this world it was pretty amusing seeing him not know much about this time period at which he is currently now part of, mixed with Mecha fights against the Demons known as the "Efidolg" to protect Earth. The Efidolg have a goal and may not be what you had expected them to be, which you will find out if you watch this series. It was pretty interesting that he fought alongside with his Princess in a Mecha against the Efidolg during Sengoku time period, & now once more doing the same thing, in this new time period with a new partner, a girl who looks like his Princess. Lots of the characters in a series usually means a lot of characters that barely contributed to an anime but in this case, no so much. Even the Camera Boy Jundai has his purposes in this anime even if it's minor but still, I guess useful for this anime's development. I have no hate for any characters and like most of them. Personally I had a lot of excitement watching the fights in this anime, as well as the romance in this anime. Overall I enjoyed shipping characters with each other along the way as I love romance stuff in anime. The soundtracks in this anime were pretty good and I actually listened to the openings fully while watching this anime series, each episode. The art was perfect for this series but the art for the Mechas were not anything special compared to most Mecha anime. Thanks for taking the time to read this review and I hope you guys who are planning to watch this series, do so and enjoy it just as much, or better as I did. Again, I left a lot of details out such as a lot of stuff involving Yukina & etc to not spoil you guys.

Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu presents a cliche type of story where someone suddenly gets transported to another world that differs from theirs by having magic. Don't let that just automatically tell you to not watch it. The main protagonist is named Subaru Natsuki who seems to another one of those Hikikomori tracksuit wearing characters at first. But he isn't gonna like have to kill a Demon King to ... save that world or something like that. He gets saved by a half-human, half-elf girl who whom he starts to develop feelings for, which grows stronger throughout the series. After getting killed a couple times & redoing a some stuff over, he realizes he has a power inside of him that can allow him to revive to a certain checkpoint if he ever dies. From then on, he starts going into problems that result in him dying and reviving until he finds a solution to it. During these revivals(or "respawns"), he experiences tragedies of people he befriended/encountered over and over again in this world. His checkpoint would be overwrited at times when he successfully bypasses a level(the conflict he is facing gets resolved). During these respawns , we see somewhat development in his character through his time in this fantasy world(Note: we know nothing of his life before this world), we meet more characters and get to know most of them better as the story progresses maybe seeing background stories for some as a treat too. I loved most of the actions that Subaru did most of the time, and how conflicts were resolved by him. Overall I loved every character in this and shipped Subaru & Rem this whole series despite the ending being not what I hoped for, I still enjoyed this series and hope other otakus will enjoy this series as much as I did.

Story : I loved the story a lot with it's funny moments, romance, and sad moments. Throughout the story you see the ups and downs of the main character as he continue

Art : Top notch art. I loved how the music played by the characters actually displayed it in imagery depending on the mood of the person playing the music. Another thing I loved about the art was the beautiful scenes in these series that the main character witnessed.

Sound : Both openings I loved a lot. The endings were just as good as the openings (if not better). The soundtracks and the music (played by ... the characters) were very refreshing and enjoyable in this anime. I would not make this ever lower than a 10.

Character : Most of the characters were lovable. Some at first, you may dislike but, later on you just no longer hold anything against them. The friends were very supporting to the main character coming to all his performances(man, wish I had friends like them). The comedy between the main character and the main girl was very amusing and funny. The rivals especially were very good characters in terms of personality and the reason they were rivals towards the main character who made them who they were today(in the anime). Had to respect the rivals too.

Enjoyment : I enjoyed watching this series a lot Loved the music played in this series and the characters in this series.


Some things I got out of this anime :

*Your dreams/goals/passion can ever so be evolved massively by having rivals to challenge you to get better.

*No matter a bad past or a bad present you should always stride to live for the people who are love you.

*Cherish your loved ones as they may not always be with alongside you.

I would highly recommend this to anyone. Give it a try if you aren't a fan of any of the genres in this anime. The time you put into watching this will most likely and hopefully give you more knowledge of life being meaningful and etc that you never notice before.
