As a parody, I suppose this anime is decent. The diamond hidden inside is the amazing background music. Sweeping from modern full orchestra pieces to speed metal, the best part of the anime is the music. Myth and Roid was a good choice for the OP. I like their song. The ED CG animation is pretty good too. The wiggles are enchanting and the dance moves are cute but not overly cute.
Seiya Ryuuguuin As a character is a bit off putting with the distance smugness. He is too over the top arrogant to make the parody work.

Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo.
(Anime)
add
Brilliant masterpiece!!!
"Why does everyone want to know about it? What's so wonderful about it? Did you want to know about it, too? Would I not have known you if I hadn't learned about it? I don't want it to be like this!" The story of Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo centers around five high school girls in the savage season of youth. As feelings of love, romance and the unknown of sexual intimacy, these maidens share a bond in the literature club. The clubs true direction is to answering the questions above. The sign on the door says "Purity" although this is somewhat lost as the blues of youth play ...

This is a wonderful anime adaptation of the manga. The story is well written up to where this ends in episode 13. I was expecting a different wrap-up in episode 13 so when time was running out, I was anxious and maybe a little upset, but they finished the last episode as well and the start of the story as it unfolded in the anime beginning.
This is both a yuri (love story) and coming of age (or rather coming to terms) with who you are as a person and navigating your past. The developing feelings among the characters and they way they were connected ...

H2O: Footprints in the Sand
(Anime)

This the anime that you get to the second from last episode and expect no happiness in the end or “how are they going to recover the story to reach a happy ending now?”
I could tell this was a farbit more Psychological than Ilike but over time, you start to see where we are going with the plot. Episode 8 was totally unnecessary as others have mentioned. The beginning starts with the “Footsteps in the sand” poem but leaves out the ending. As the story moves forward and characters evolve you see why. You will either love it or hate it. The end was mostly unexpected ...

Jingai-san no Yome
(Anime)

This anime really made almost no sense. Each episode was 3 minutes.
At the outset we find a few of the local High School boys are betrothed by a method not really explained. The central character is Tomari Hinowa who marries a strang creature. Tomari and a few of his friends all end up marrying creatures called Kanenogi (カネノギ) which could be described as sort of like alien & yokai although this is never really explained. The creatures are referred to as the "Husband's" and the boys are referred to as the "Wife's" which isn't really explained. The boy's do exibit traits of doting wives and ...

My intention was to see Haikyu!! The Movie: Battle of Concepts! At a local theater however the person who offered to buy tickets for me bought them for Maquia. I came in with zero knowledge of the title and no preconceived notions.
The back grounds and details in some scenes were absolutely stunning. The characters drawn were a range from rather dull to at least SAO quality. The sound was brilliant and timing was great as were the sound effects. At first the story was a bit hard to follow as I tried to figure out were we were going with the plot. I’m ...

This is probably the best Adventure, Slice of Life anime that I have seen in the last few years.
The characters are deep and endearing. The attention to detail in production and realism is high. The animation itself is well above par. The audio effects are great. Much of the original soundtracks so far are wonderful. Two great songs Open and End each episode (both which I have ordered from Japan). As to the story, the underlying issue that the seems to be guiding the plot, binding the girls and everyone on the expedition but keeps them from connecting, is slowly revealed over time. This perfectly ... |
