In the beginning, my friend practically forced me to watch this. I hated sports and my least favorite was volleyball. 'Of course I won't like it,' I told myself, 'It's literally about sports!' Yet, I couldn't find that more wrong. I wouldn't say Haikyuu is my favorite anime, but I can say it was one of my favorites.

This anime really gets me all riled up just watching it. Whenever there's an official match between Karasuno and another team, I find myself on the edge of my seat. Whenever they score a point, (mentally) I scream just as loud as they are(which is pretty loud). ...

This isn't your usual story. It doesn't tell you that your dream will magically come true if you 'believe' in it. No. In fact, every single team that fights Karasuno is given just enough screen time to show that they want to win just as much as Karasuno. Really, the theme here is not that dreams come true, but rather you need to get your hands dirty to make them come true.

I loved the song by servant of evil, so naturally when I found out about this manga, I right away started reading. I found a site named manga panda and fell in love with it. (http://www.mangapanda.com/aku-no-meshitsukai)

I was never disappointed. It had a lot of relevance to the songs Servant of Evil and Daughter of Evil, but changes some aspects that after you read them, it makes more sense I think I love the song even more because this manga exists. When I first listened to the song, I could tell Len/Allen loved his sister so much, that he'd literally and metaphorically rip his heart out ... for her if it made her happy, but after reading the manga, I realized his love for his sister was so much deeper than that.

At birth, the royal twins were separated because Len was thought to be cursed(there's a reason behind that, but it's a spoiler given away at the beginning). Growing up, Princess Rin loved Prince Kaito of the Blue kingdom, but whenever she passed by a tower she was told never to go in,the North Tower, she could hear a piano being played. Eventually, her curiosity got the best of her and she escaped from her room by a secret passage way her mother showed her for emergencies during her nap time and went to the tower. And that's where it all begins...

If you like the type of anime that involves heros/heroines, romance and comedy, I highly suggest you watch shugo chara.
When I first decided to watch it, I thought it'd be childish and dumb, but when the main character started talking about how she really felt, I could relate. She didn't really know anything about herself and she felt like she made the wrong impression. As I continued watching, I saw how everything just came together perfectly. There's reason's behind everyone's dream, they didn't just say "Ok! This character wants to be a ___ when they grow up," for no reason. You really got to ... connect with each of them to the point where you want their wildest dreams to come true(after you've watched it, it's pretty obvious who I'm talking about...).

It really tells anyone who watches it, "Hey, dreams are very easily broken, but you should chase them."
Although the anime could never happen, it seems to show reality more than fantasy. You are going to have fights with your friends, you are going to get hurt and you might even cry, but you shouldn't just give up everything just because one little thing. If you fall, let your friends pick you up and don't care about what others think of you. Others might stab you in the back, but you do the same afterwords, it will be an unending war.

Shugo Chara has many plot twists that you couldn't really see coming. I would give you an example, but that'd ruin it for you if you choose to watch it(I saw a picture that gave one away. It sucked).

If you like the original pretty cure, your bound to love this one. Like the original, it takes a fair time of their lives and the fight.
This pretty cure is perfect on keeping the characters in the "right spot"(by that I mean they never act differently than you'd expect someone to be. Example: An evil queen giving money to the poor for no apparent reason).
I liked how they made part of it in 3-D(I would say specifically what part, but I think that'd be a spoiler). I also like how it ties all the pretty cures together(again, spoiler). Every single detail makes sense. ... Whenever there's an argument between the characters, it explains why they're mad at eachother.

Let me say, if you like heroines, watch it!
I liked this anime because it was one like I have never seen. I've watched Sailor moon and Powerpuff girls z(and afterwords I started watching Sailor Moon Crystal), but this one stuck out to me.
I honestly don't know why exactly, but maybe because they're basically powerless without each other. They can't even transform by themselves. In Sailor moon, usually not all the sailors are present. In powerpuff girls z, They can kind of survive by themselves, but are still stronger together.
Perhaps it's because there's only two people. In the other animes, there were more people.
Perhaps it's because ... their powers are more associative with each other thus making a better team. If you notice in the other animes, they work side by side, but don't seem very connected.
P.S. I tried making this without spoilers, I'm sorry if I did.

This was a disappointment. When I watched Prettycure, I loved it. This however, I didn't like.
It almost seemed like it was 95% of their everyday lives and at the last 5% a monster appeared. It felt very rushed when it finally came to transforming into prettycure.
Their lives and their battles also didn't seem very connected like they were back in prettycure. Kind of if you watched the first part of a T.V. show then watched the second half of another. It just doesn't flow very well. This show seems to have no relation to the original series. I also didn't like how ... they seemed to put Nagisa(Natalie) and Honoka(Hannah) as"not the most important characters."
So I advise you NOT to watch this anime.
