A fan of Twilight? Vampires? Werewolves? Fantasy? This anime has it all. Dance in the Vampire Bund was previously adapted from the manga and consists 12 episodes with 1 recap. A highly suspenseful and mysterious source. I personally thought everything was thorough, and detailed. If you're interested in a fantasy, horror, slight bit of nudity, this is a perfect anime for you.
Story: 10
The story was very well thought. The audience clearly understands what is going on and the plot doesn't skip all over the place, definitely have transitional scenes in between. The future scenes were somewhat predictable in some areas. There were 3 different stories
...
that connected and the 2nd scenario were fairly predictable, but otherwise i thought the plot was interesting. The plot really stood out, it wasn't those typical romances with your typical daily lives. Really is unique compared to the rest, especially when both protagonists start to reveal their past to the audience
Art: 10
The art was very detailed, indeed. The contrast in black and red, against the bright yellow and white portrays a very evil aspect of the anime, yet the brighter colours kind of portray a type of hope and peace. Although most of the anime was set in the dark you can distinguish the many aspects of the animation. It also had great effects, especially with the vampire attacks and transformations.
Sound:
Similar to the art in the movie, it was well used at the right times. When you hear the sounds you can feel the different emotions in it, for example, if one would scream, it'd give a really eerie feel and send goosebumps up your spine. Its as if the sound runs through your body giving you the right reaction to the event that is occurring. Truly astounding.
Characters:
The characters were well developed. It was brought with a third person omniscient view, in which we know some things that are only revealed to the audience but not the actual characters in the story. The characters were very mysterious in every concept, you don't know some of their motives, etc. But as the anime progresses, the anime unfolds and many would start to understand the character's motive and personality better. The one thing I wasn't so pleased about was the nudity of the Vampire Queen (who has taken form into a young blond child), it was....rather disturbing. However, after awhile it'll be easily to absorb those images. Akira's personality was a little too obvious, really, a typical hero, who tries to keep his promise and does anything to save his friends, and Queen.
I absolutely enjoyed the anime and I hope you will too =]

Sports fan? Suspenseful fan? Soccer fan? Well Whistle! this manga has iall 3 :) Whistle! has a total of 24 volumes and each one of them containing something that would make you go onto the next one. Like I mentioned before, Whistle! is about soccer, and it's about a junior high student how sucked horribly at soccer but later climbed to a select team.
The story was exicting and catchy, however this story lacks uniqueness. Most mangas are always about people who aren't skilled in something but starts to suceed in some sort of way. Sometimes, its just too predictable and almost everytime the main
...
character (Sho) always does something amazing and wins the game. I think there were only once or twice that he actually lost a game. It's always the "classical" story sort of thing. However, near the end it was quite suprising at what happened....so that ended quite well.
I loved the graphics in there, and the way the artist drawed really showed what soccer is.
Overall I quite enjoyed it :)

This anime is quite a DRAMA so it's very dramatic (obviously :) ). There's this one girl Haruka who has a huge crash on Takuyaki (sorry if i spelt it wrong), and her best friends Mitsuki befriends with him for that purpose. However, as Haruka confesses her feelings to him, Mitsuki also starts to discover her own feelings for him......
This anime is very complicated, took me a while to process it through. The only thing that I was a little disappointed in was how the characters dealt with the situations. Like the plot was good and all but the characters were just missing something, like
...
a missing puzzle piece. I'm not really sure what it is, maybe the characters were not confident enough. Well none of them were confident enough to do anything, and it really bugs me. To me they seem like they're too weak to do anything and i don't like weak characters. Almost nowhere in this series had it been joyful....and most of the time it was quite fusturating
However, this anime had a lot of good points, some of the events that occured in the anime was unpredictable......which is good cause no one wants a predictable anime. There was quite a bit of love scenes which i don't have to go further about. The expressions are quite realistic so the art was excellent.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

Tenjou Tenge is one of the BEST anime I've seen. To start this off, souichiro is a street fighter who has come to a martial arts academy to kick everybody's ass. However, in their first fight souichiro got beaten up by a "kid" who transformed into a really attractive lady and was then later randomly engaged with the "kid"'s little sister. However, souichiro loves maya (kid) while maya's little sister aya loves souichiro. Aya presues souichiro throughout the series while souichiro fights the reinforcers (people who keep the martial arts academy in control, the leader of the reinforcers is maya's ex-boyfriend). Then the
...
story sorta splits into two, where one story follows maya and her past while the other about the present.
The story was very well done. It was somewhat confusing in the middle, and there was like an "almost" new cast in the story; which took up about half of the anime series (24 episodes + 2 OVA +1 movie). But I actually like the past story better than the present, it seemed more interesting. But in this anime there is quite a bit of ecchiness which I thought was sort of disturbing and there were quite alot of beat up/ bloody scenes. It turned out that I gave the story an 8/10
The art was quite detailed, the art was so well done that in one of the depressing scenes, i cried my eyes out, and yes it was very SAD! The art is totally worth a 10/10
The sound was quite suitable for the anime so that left it with a 9/10
I really have nothing to say about character, it was absolutely AMAZING!! A true 10/10
I enjoyed it quite alot, there were many joyful and funny scenes and there were many serious and sad scenes. I'd recommend it to almost anybody over 15 (due to some inappropiate scenes) and shounen fans!
Hope my review helped! ^.^

Bleach..... a manga/review that almost any anime fan would know. This would be recommened for 13+ because of the violence, ecchi, and blood in this anime. This anime is a shounen jump series where the anime is an adaption to the manga.
This anime was truly amazing, the plot/story was complexed but was complex enough for anybody to understand. So to refresh your mind if you haven't already, bleach is about a normal teenager that had his life changed forever when he can see hollows (creatures that have no heart and feed on people for their misery/ for power) as well as shinigami (people that
...
get rid of hollows. He comes to meet the girl protaganist quite quickly where he takes almost all Rukia (girl protaganist)'s shinigami powers to battle the hollow that destroyed his home and wound his family. From there he became the substitute shinigami in substitude for Rukia.
The art was fairly well done, i was really into the graphics, however i didn't like the character drawings. At the very beginning, when Rukia was first seen I thought she was a guy! But when she started talking I was like "whoa that guy has a girl voice". But then I realized that she was a girl. Usually girls in anime aren't "flat chest" so maybe because of that I didn't realize that she was a girl sooner, and back then I was a total anime newb. Well maybe that was just me, but after I got used to her looks and she's like one of my favorite characters!
The sound was acceptable, I wouldn't say it was too good or too bad. I really like the emotions that the voice actors put in when they get emotional or slashed lol.
I really have no comment for character except for it's PERFECT! This is what I expected for bleach, characters were so well done, I loved Ichigo's and Rukia's personality the best! Too bad the artist wouldn't put some romance into it, it would have made the anime skyrocket! But it's still good as it is, no doubt about it.
Overall, I quite enjoyed it, I loved some of the filler episodes, other's not so much. But I've got to say.....this is a MUST watch!

Fumoffu is like a third serious to Full Metal Panic, rather than having battles, fights, shounen stuff like what the other Full Metal Panic? serious were, this one, Full Metal Panic?Fumoffu is more emotional and romantic. I'd say it's more of a comedy than romance other than this one part near the end of the anime. But anyways enough of that.......
The reason I think this anime is called "Fumoffu" because the guy does have feelings for the girl but is too shy to tell her, so he hides in this amusement park mascot costume to somewhat prove his feelings for her. But whenever he
...
talks he's like "Fumoffu, fumoffu, fumoffu" and so that's how I think the origin of Fumoffu came from.
This series is kinda rare, the guy is all over military that he's really dense. And the girl likes him but when ever she tries to send some kinda signal to him he mistakes it for something else. Everything's so ironic, and the guy is so serious about everything in a way that makes everyone laugh.
The story was quite detailed however, i think it lacked a bit of logic in it, like it's quite crazy and things don't usually happen. But again, it's an anime so it's acceptable. I loved the drawing especially the girl who's so open to everyone but the guy is so serious looking and acting as if he's part of a military (although he is part of a milatary but is going to school as a NORMAL student).
I enjoyed it quite alot and hopefully you would too.....i know i blabbered on and on and on but if you made it through all this I'll especially recommend you to watch Full Metal Panic?Fumoffu

Ayashi no Ceres is an anime/manga created by Yuu Watase, one of the most popular manga artist in Japan. To refresh your mind if you haven't already Ayashi no Ceres is about a girl Aya Mikage who has the power of the celestial maiden and was known as the unlucky one in the Mikage family. Aya was a descendent of the actual celestial maiden Ceres and Ceres was known as an enemy to the Mikage family for many generations. During every generation there was a girl that had the power of the celestial maiden but everytime when they reach the age of 16
...
they were assasinated. Aya managed to survive but now she has nowhere to go.......
This anime was quite fast paced, there was absolutely no areas in which included boredom. There was quite alot of action that includes violence, blood, and other inappropriate measures. So this would be suitable for teens and up.
The story was quite well ploted, i couldn't find much flaws in the story. Although it was quite interesting, it's a pretty long series so sometimes you would think its a drag. However, I think it's still worth watching it.
I loved the art in this anime, it so detailed, especially the emotions. The emotions are so real, it seems like your actually playing a role in the anime.
The character were very well done, although i thought Tooya and Aya were quite stubborn and her twin brother Aki is just too pure and innocent. Otherwise I think it would be quite nice.
Overall it's fairly good, and if you like Fushigi Yuugi, there is a very high chance that you would like Ayashi no Ceres. Oh and there is also an anime for this if I haven't mentioned this before. Hope my review helped you!

Ranma 1/2 is the most hilarious anime ever. Even though you may already know what the plot for this story is; but to refresh your mind it's focused on this teenaged guy who turns to a woman when splashed with cold water. He reverts back to his original self when he is splashed with hot water. I would say this anime is a romance/action/martial arts/comedy.
The plot was really well done, there wasn't too much of each genre and everything isn't a drag. Although I mentioned that there wasn't too much of one genre, i would say there would be a tint more on comedy
...
than the other two. I wouldn't say it's a fast paced anime, but everything was amusing to watch.
Although it's one of the older animes that were made, but it has some of the characteristics that some animes in the present don't have. Some of the scences that weren't used in the present animes and was used in ranma1/2 had a more effective response (emotion-wise)
Many people would think a long long anime is going to be very wrong, well their wrong (no offense) but there are some exceptions, and ranma1/2 is one of them. I had a CD collection and I just couldn't stop watching it lol.
This is a harem serious and most girls change into other creatures (you'll have to figure it out yourself).
I hope my review helped, give it a try! Better trying then not :) But I tell you it's AMAZING!

Onegai Teacher (a.k.a. Please Teacher) is one of thoose romantic/comedy series that involve student/teacher relationships. It's also one of those that involve a 3-triangle relationship. I personallly thought that it was hilarious, though in some parts was kinda hectic.
The story was very well plotted, In most animes, the couple always started hating each other then falling in love but this anime was different. The couple got together pretty early and their relationship developed from there. This anime was one of the more peaceful ones, there isn't any violence at all (that i remember). I didn't really like the problem that Kei had (stand-still). Almost every
...
single episode hada something to do with the "standstill" which sometimes annoys me.I loved the hilarious scenes that were put into it, it always made me laugh.
The art was very well illustrated. I really liked the drawing for Mizuho (teacher). I just loved the faces that character show in certain situations. Although there were a few, rare ecchi moments which makes it perfectly fine because it only has 12 episodes and 1 OVA.
The sound was ok, not too shabby, but not very well done though either. However, I really loved the opening song "Shooting Stars". I did like the emotion that the voice actors put into it though, but sometimes i think they were a bit over the line.
It wasn't fast paced, or slow, i thought it was moving at a reasonable place, not like other animes that drag on for a very long itme. Sometimes i think some scenes were easy to predict, there sometimes wasn't much of a suprise.
Overall I really liked it and i think it would be suitable for almost everyone
