*SPOILERS*
So i literally just finished this anime a matter of minutes ago. This is by far the best tragedy love story i have ever read! The series starts out with Makoto being a shy guy who is pushed by a classmate to ask the girl he liked out. Then from there on I hated Makoto. He is the biggest dick i have every seen in these kind of herem series. Its almost like his penis has complete control over his heart and he cant think about anything more than who next he can fuck. Sekai and Kotonohana are both just the victims of this ... ass hole and the tragic ending was completely his fault. I love how Kotonohana progresses though out the story and she is by far my favorite character in the series. I find it lovely how she forgave that dick for all he did and still loved him. But when she found his corpse, she was pushed to the edge of sanity and broke down. To be honest i think Makoto should have had a much more brutal death but hey thats just my sick little dreams. Overall a very good series and you will NEVER, EVER, EVVVVEEEERRRR cheat on a girl after watching this series!

Bakuman, a pumping, realistic series of chasing your dreams and self determination. This is truly one of my favorite manga series BY FAR. I would even go as far as to say I like this more than I like death note, mostly because of how relatable this series is to me personally. I myself being a 15 year old who loves to write stories, and hope to become a proffesional mangaka with by best friend leo (which we actually planned to do before this series came out) so this series is extreamly relatable. The author does a spectacular job of potraying the daily struggles of ... the people who created the works that have gotten us all through some hard times. But what really makes this series is the characters! The characters in this series are like a rainbow of different personalities and characteristics. From the love struck Mashiro to the lazy Himura. I also loved all the references to manga and Weekly jump (such as when takagi was listing off jump manga with swords in them). There are also some characters that remind me of Weekly jump mangaka. An example of this would be Enji Nizuma, who is an extream otaku and a workaholic, which is very similar to Eiichiro Oda, the author of One Piece. Another example is Himura who I consider to be Yoshihiro Togashi. Think about it, they both are kinda lazy, have had two hit series, and have married a fellow mangaka. Overall this series is a fantastic tale of the struggles of manga artists and their passion for manga, a series that i consider to be a must read!

Elfen lied, an anime of love, despair, and a ton of fucking blood!!! The story was very original for me, though the ending was why I gave this anime a 8 instead of a 10 in the story catagory. I really enjoyed the blood and the violence over anything else in this series and it really knows how to fuck with your brain. The fight scenes are amazing and I really love the animation. The characters are... unrealistic. Like Koda, who "forgives" Nyu even though she ruined his life. Some characters where also killed off far to quick, for example the mad scientist who grew ... horns on his head. I have found that if you think too much into the overall plot of this series, it will lead you be annoyed by how the series was potrayed. Overall Elfen lied is a good series to kick back, relax, and enjoy the gore. I have used this anime on several occasions to get people into anime overall, like my friend ronny.

*SPOILERS* Deadman wonderland, a very original series by far. I was first introduced to this series during toonami's revival and I was instantly hooked. I originally watched the anime before turinging to the manga after I finished the 12 episodes and the OVA. The biggest attraction that I have to this series is those fucked up moments like when shiro murdered gantas class or the giant slot machine that tells you which body part you will be losing. I also love the concept of a jail that profits off of the prisoners, this is a unique idea (as far as i know) and was well ... incorperated into the story. Though I do think that the part of the story with just them fighting for their lives and not rebeling could have been extended a little more. The fights were very entertaining with the blood flying and the tactical manuvers. My favorite character of this series is shiro with her adorable persona and her fucked up persona. Though ganta was a very bland main character towards the begining to the series, he gradually was built up over time. Overall this is an outstanding series and I highly recomend it to anyone who likes a ton of blood and gore.
