Spice and Wold II- First impression- 7/10
Hey look! another season! I liked the first on, so why not watch the second/

story-
Were you unsatisfied with the ending of the first? Well, considering that hey didn't make it to their destination, the story continues. Slightly better than the first season.

Art-
Just as good as the first season.

Sound-
... Again slighlty better than the first season.

Character-
It's essentially the same characters with different names, but there are a few new characters who i liked. And one certain rich boy that i hated, although i think that the hatred was intended.

Enjoyment-
Very enjoyable. More confusion on the character's parts, and drama with great suspense. I was only surprised once, and that was at the market, with Horo.

Overall-
Slightly better than the first season, although the ending screams season 3!
Cannot wait.

Spice and Wolf- first impression- 2/10
It's a story about....Trading? Bartering? Financialy driven plot? Sounds stupid.Hey look, its a furry, let's watch.

Story-
One of the most unique stories i have ever seen in an anime. It was very surprising how much you can understand about the characters by their actions. I know actions speak louder than words, and this series proves it, especially since no one ever talks about their feelings, it's all done through actions. (almost)

Art-
Good art, at least its proportional. No 'huge boobs' characters, or things that just look stupid.

Sound-
OP and ED weren't very relevant, but i at least sorta liked the ED. Seven apples ... on a witches tree....

Character-
It's captain dense! With the power to understand nothing, and at the same time everything! Did anyone else notice that despite being a 'great' merchant, he seems to get swindled more than he makes profits?

Enjoyment-
Very enjoyable, if not just for the change of pace. It's not an action, not overly cheesy romance, and not ecchi fanservice. refreshing.

Overall-
Yes.

Ef- A tale of melodies -first impression- 6/10
It's a sequel to Memories, or a prequel, depending.

Story-
Half of this story takes place in the past, which helps explain things from the first season that made everyone say "Wait, what was that?!". You see a semi-new story, well a side story really, but it's still nice.

Art-
Carries the same style from the first season. It's still nice.

Sound-
... Where this anime really shines. The OP and ED are just awesome. In show music is very mood-setting. It's both relevant and well-done.

Character-
He's an ass! (You know who) Aside from that, most of the other 3 characters are likeable, although Mizuki is super-needy, it fits her char. well.

Enjoyment-
You may or may not enjoy this as much as the first season. It's iffy. I really only watched it because of the first season, and it didn't add too much. It's also a breeding ground for melodrama.

Overall-
If you liked Memories, watch melodies.

I CHOOSE YOU! EHEM!
I mean....

It's been a while since i've seen Kiba (like 3 years), but the simple fact that i can remember the story and characters are a testament to this anime's awesomeness. so let's begin....

Story-
It's not INCRDIBLY original, but it is told in such a way that it really captures you. It does drag sometimes, and sometimes you'll feel that its a little rushed, but its still great.

Art-
Decent effects, pretty good characters, and CONSISTANCY. Most animes i see don't focus on every detail of the show, but Kiba seems to.
...
Sound-
I still find myself humming the OP and ED. I can actually remember how most of it goes. In show sound is awesome.

Character-
YES. Maybe a little cliche, but well fleshed out. All characters seem unique and not just carbon copies of a char that appeared in a previous episode.

Enjoyment-
I enjoyed it immensly.

Overall-
Bears striking similariteis to pokemon, but is more for older teens. Roia had an annoying "NOOO!", but i loved Noa and Zed's voices.

Ef- a tale of memories - First impression- 7/10
I really didn't know what to expect when i rirst started watching it. I had just finished "Zero no Tsukaima"'s 3 seasons, so i was really looking forward to a good anime. I was surprised.

Story-
It is a love story, romance and whatnot. It is told quite well, letting us see perspective on almost all of the characters. It tells the story of 3 or 4 couples, with the other 2 in the second season (tale of melodies). Each couple has problems and difficulties to overcome, and a good bit of the characters have an interesting, if not ... downright pitiable, past. The story moves at a decent pace, not shoving stuff down your throat, but not dragging either.

Art-
The art in this anime was very good. There weren't many special effects, and if you actually look at the art, it looks kind of plain. But the way its used and presented makes it shine. It's very well put together.

Sound-
My favorite part of this anime is the sound. The story ties into the opening and ending credits very well, and you will understand better after you finish the series. I LOVED the ending credits of ep. 12 of season 2. It was awesome.

Character-
Each character has personality and is unique. Although a few characters did things that i didn't think they would, it was very well thought out. Although some of the characters were complete assholes, most of them were friendly and easy to like.

Enjoyment-
Yes. very much so.

Overall-
It's great. Season 2 wasn't as good, but had better sound. There were a few times when i thought some charactr was gonna kill him/herself, but everything worked out how i wanted it. (Except one guy)
