Shingeki no Kyojin: No Regrets/Kuinaku Sentaku is a spin-off of the ever popular Attack on Titan on which our beloved supporting character Levi finally gets a main role. This shows the flashback of Levi before joining the Survey Corps. You don't really need to watch AOT first if you want to watch this.

The story leads to Levi, Isabel and Farlan living in an underground city in which serves as the Capital's dump. Levi and his friends are criminals who steals food, money, etc. using a 3D Maneuver gear. Not much I can say 'bout the story since it's already written in the ... synopsis. For my score for the story, I gave it a 9, it's not really perfect but it's really interesting. And which leads later in a situation in which we would be really tense and shock. The thrills sent to me lead it to a 9 score to the story.

The art is still the same, Levi's face, nothing really much has changed (even though years had passed), and Erwin still looks like himself. Nothing really much changed.

Sound? Opening and ending was the 2nd one from the anime. But the background music, OST, was great! As expected from a wonderful anime.

The character development, this was the one that gave impact on us. Levi is Levi, Erwin is Erwin. But the bond between Levi, Isabel, and Farlan was something you find heartwarming. The development between them is great.

So far, I enjoyed this OVA, even though this is a spin-off, I still gave it a high score. Because of how well-made this is. And how much impact it gave to me.

Overall, I loved this spin-off. It already became one of my faves, of course, not because Levi is the protagonist, it's because of somehow it gave me an impulse of excitement. I never really found a spin-off this exciting and tense. And If you think spin-offs aren't worth watching, try watching this one. And yes, that means I recommend this.

What does it have to take an anime to be a perfect ten or masterpiece? A wonderful plot? A unexceptionally good art? A beautiful soundtrack? Characters that are lovable? An enjoyable anime that gives you unforgettable and happy moments which makes your ass laugh off? Want to find out? Then if you have time, try continue reading this review but if not, then it's okay of you skipped my review.

Hunter x Hunter (2011) is the completed and alternative version of the series HxH back in 1998 with better quality. The story is all about the adventures of four friends, I think you all know all ... about the story since you have read the synopsis. You should NOT underestimate this anime. Don't be fooled by their looks. Even if the main protagonist, Gon, looks like a kid doesn't mean that this is a childish show. As you can see it's rated "R-17+" since it contains violence. Hunter x Hunter is a hidden gem (since a lot of people don't know this anime and it's really wonderful), a RARE shounen anime that comes into your life, an once-in-a-lifetime chance.

The art or drawing of this anime is really good, and the quality is simply one of the best, the creativity between colors gives out an outstanding view which makes you say "Wow!". Therefore, I gave it a 10.

Character development is simply amazing! You shouldn't underestimate the 2 young protagonists, they have a good relationship with each other which makes you think that this is what best friends are truly are. The development between the supporting and main grows which makes their bonds grow strong. But there's a teensy weensy problem and it's that I find the other characters annoying.

The sound... It was really catchy and you can really call the OP and ED an earworm. The ending songs are really exceptionally good, they picked the right sound at the right time. The OST was good.

My enjoyment of this anime is that it never lets me down and makes me beg more and more. This anime never fails me to laugh and cry, the thrills sent to my skin was really tense and the battles are like double-edged swords, never fails me to surprise and scream (which my neighbour hears).

Overall, this childish anime that you think of is not as kiddie as you think, this anime had already fooled me, I hated this anime before because I think it's childish but later on it became one of my favorites. You might not get interested because of their innocent face but as episodes pass by, you might reconsider them and think that they're really not that innocent after all. And of course I LOVE this anime.

The story wasn't rushed and the pacing is neither fast or slow, this is what you expect on a perfect anime.

I recommend you to watch this, if you want shounen, or battles with tense. But if you don't want to, then it's okay because I'm not forcing you to watch this magnificent masterpiece.

Scarlet. A dramatic yaoi manga that made me cry quickly just by reading the first chapter.
The story was intriguing so I read it. And boy, this manga is REALLY GOOD. All in all, this manga has 3 wonderful couples:

The first one is all about best friends who became lovers. This is the main couple and it only has 2 chapters in the manga. Here we have a cool ( for me ) uke and a clingy seme, which is a crybaby. I was really amazed how only ONE chapter is like a whole 5 chapter manga shortened it to ... one, it's like when you're done with the first chapter, you're already done with the whole manga, it was truly great.

The second is all about a gay businessman which is the uke and a handsome salesman as the seme. It was only 2 chapters but it impressed me, well it's really hard to explain since it's only 2 chapter short, I feel like telling the whole story but people doesn't like getting spoiled, ao let's get back to the topic. Here the uke thought that it was an unrequited love but...?

The third is only one chapter short, but it's really sweet and it made me go "aww~". I can't explain all the details since it's really short, but this third couple was really cute especially the seme.

And there's one extra chapter, but might not bother telling you, since I think it's a spoiler.

The art is simply amazing, the face of each characters are so beautiful these are what you call "true bishounens", they give off some sparkly aura. I really enjoyed it too since there was some laughs, and how it kept me glued on my seat, truly amazing!

Overall, this anime's great, this isn't your typical girly uke and cool seme but vice versa! These are quite rare, because it's really good and uncommon unlike other yaoi. I recommend this to you if you'd like a li'l bit of laugh and dramatic scenes.

If you don't like the younger one being a seme, please go find a different yaoi manga.

Kazuhiko Mishima-sensei has done it again! Another great piece of work!
Using a student as a seme and a teacher as an uke is not really easy to find, and with a great story, too. I didn't expect that some curse and magic will happen here. I was really dumbfounded when a boy harem surrounds a male teacher, haven't seen a manga that was like this, I am truly amazed on how the art is outstanding and the character development was really nice to begin with. ... But a straight male teacher that hates gay from the beginning and starts to like them during the manga is too cliché. Nevermind that, this is another great yaoi manga which made my ( or maybe yours ) heart goes doki doki. My enjoyment of this manga was okay, simple comedy and great plot. Overall this manga is another of sensei's lovely student seme & spoiled teacher uke, that I like.

(BASED IMO)

Hey, Uta no Prince-sama fans, this may be the right anime for you. Like idols singing and dancing? Idols with beautiful faces? We'll you have come to the right anime. Shounen Hollywood: Holly Stage for 49 is right for you! You'll be experiencing songs, and dances in some of the episodes!


STORY:
It's about boys trying to be idols so they'll be known worldwide. So far, each episode is telling their lives before they joined the idol group "SHONEN HOLLYWOOD" and random stuffs happen each episode.

ART:
The art is a bit realistic. But there are mistakes or other drawings that I don't like because it doesn't ... seem to fit the background perfectly. And their faces look like weird, I haven't seen an anime that has the drawing like this, but the character designer has done a good job.

SOUND:
The seiyuus used in each characters are just perfect, except for Amaki, Daisuke Ono would be perfect, Kakihara-san is not fitted with Amaki. The background song fits with the atmosphere of the anime, happy and joyful songs are perfect! The OP song & ED song are okay to me.

CHARACTER:
Their attitudes are like high school boys having their time of their lives dancing and singing happily, not like us otakus spending our time in front of the computer/laptop watching anime and stuffs. I really enjoyed some of the characters.

ENJOYMENT:
It's a bit dull. And the hell, it will also have a season two. I laughed.. because of their faces(no offense to the fans). Well, there are times that I copy them while dancing.
It was okay.

OVERALL:
In the end... Meh. Just meh.
